WHEN USING THE SELF-CLEAN SETTING
During the elimination of soil during self-cleaning,
▯
small amounts of Carbon Monoxide can be
created and the fiberglass insulation could give
off very small amounts of formaldehyde during
the first several cleaning cycles. To minimize
exposure to these substances, provide good
ventilation with an open window, or use a
ventilation fan or hood.
Children should not be left alone or unattended in
▯
an area where appliances are in use. During the
Self Clean cycle, parts of the appliance may
become potentially harmful to persons who lack
adult knowledge of appliances and adult
reactions to potentially harmful conditions.
Do not block the oven vent(s) during the self-
▯
cleaning cycle. Always operate the unit according
to the instructions in this manual.
When self-cleaning, confirm that the door locks
▯
and will not open. If the door does not lock, do
not run Self-Clean. Contact service.
During Self-Clean, the oven is heated to a very high
temperature. Soil is burned off at this temperature.
