food in the oven and space pans to allow air to circulate. Allow the oven to preheat to
the set temperature before placing food in the oven. Try adjusting the recipes'
recommended temperature or baking time. If you feel the oven is too hot or cool, see
"Adjusting Oven Temperature" in the ELECTRONIC OVEN CONTROL section.

Excessive spillovers in oven. This is normal, especially for pie spillovers or large amounts
of grease on the oven bottom. Wipe up excessive spillovers before starting the self-

the steps under "Stopping or Interrupting the Self-Cleaning Cycle" in the
ELECTRONIC OVEN CONTROL section.

these areas before the self-cleaning cycle is started. Burned-on residue can be cleaned
with a stiff nylon brush and water or nylon scrubber. Be careful not to damage the oven
seal.
