will be damaged and shock or
fire could result.
• Small amounts of formaldehyde
and carbon monoxide are given
off in the Self-Cleaning cycle
from fiberglass insulation and
food decomposition. Significant
exposure to these substances
can cause cancer or reproduc­
tive harm. Exposure can be
minimized by venting with a
hood or open window and
wiping out excess food spills
prior to self-cleaning.

commercial oven cleaner or
oven liner protective coating of
any kind should be used in or
around any part of the oven.

oven racks ana other utensils.
Do not use your oven to clean
miscellaneous parts unless you
are instructed to do so in this
Use and Care Guide.

is essential for a good seal.

rub, damage or move the seal.

cifically recommended In this
