Safety Instructions
Before a Clean Cycle
If your range has this control pad, it has a self-cleaning oven.
Follow these instructions.
If not, refer to the Porcelain Oven Cleaning section for oven cleaning instructions.
We recommend venting your kitchen with
an open window or using a ventilation fan
or hood during the first self-clean cycle.
Remove broiler pan, broiler grid, all
cookware and any aluminum foil from
the oven.
NOTE:
■ If your oven is equipped with
shiny, silver-colored oven racks, we
recommend to remove them before
you begin the self-clean cycle. They
may remain in the oven during the
self-clean cycle, but they will darken,
lose their luster and become hard
to slide.
■ If your oven is equipped with gray
porcelain-coated oven racks, they
may be left in the oven during the
self-clean cycle.
Soil on the front frame of the range and
outside the gasket on the door will need
to be cleaned by hand. Clean these areas
with hot water, soap-filled or plastic
scouring pads or cleansers such as
Soft Scrub
®
. Rinse well with clean water
and dry.
Do not clean the gasket. The fiberglass
material of the oven door gasket cannot
withstand abrasion. It is essential for the
gasket to remain intact. If you notice it
becoming worn or frayed, replace it.
Make sure the oven light bulb cover
is in place and the oven light is off.
IMPORTANT: The health of some birds
is extremely sensitive to the fumes given
off during the self-cleaning cycle of
any range. Move birds to another
well-ventilated room.
Wipe up heavy soil on the oven bottom.
How to Set the Oven for Cleaning
Follow the directions in the Before a Clean
Cycle section.
Latch the door.
NOTE: Never force the latch. If the oven
is too hot, you will not be able to slide
the latch. Allow the oven to cool.
Touch the Self Clean pad.
Touch the + or – pads until the
desired Clean Time is displayed.
The Clean Time is normally 4 hours and
20 minutes. You can change the Clean
Time to any time between 3 and 5 hours,
depending on the amount of soil in your
oven.
Touch the Start/On pad.
The self-clean cycle will automatically
begin after Clean is displayed and the
time countdown appears in the display.
While the oven is self-cleaning, you can
touch the Clock pad to display the time
of day. To return to the clean countdown,
touch the Self Clean pad.
The oven shuts off automatically when the
clean cycle is complete, and 0:00 will flash
in the display.
Slide the latch handle to the left as far
as it will go and open the door.
NOTE: Never force the latch handle.
Forcing the handle will damage the door
lock mechanism.
