walls to burn oft or break up and mostly disappear While this is
happening, a sptcial part in the oven vent helps remove smoke.

not cover the rtgtlt-rear surface unit during the cleaning cycle

oven The amount of ash depends upon the amount of soil there was
in the oven When the oven is cool, clean up all that IS left with a
damp cloth. cleallser. or a soap-ftlled steel-wool pad.
