To set Keep Warm to turn on automatically:
The temperature in the oven is pre-set at the factory. When first using the oven, be sure to follow recipe times and temperatures. If you think the oven is cooking too hot or too cool for the temperature you select, you can adjust the actual oven temperature to be more or less than what is displayed.
Before adjusting, test a recipe by using a temperature setting higher or lower than the recommended temperature. The baking results should help you to decide how much of an adjustment is needed.
Do not use oven thermometers such as those found in grocery stores. The temperatures can vary as much as 20 to 40 degrees.
To adjust the oven temperature higher:
Oven temperature adjustments do not affect Broil, Self Clean or Keep Warm functions.
The oven temperature settings can be made even if your oven displays temperatures in ° C (Celsius). Maximum and minimum settings in Celsius range from plus (+) 19 ° C to minus (-) 19 ° C.
A self-cleaning oven cleans itself with high temperatures well above normal cooking temperatures) which eliminate soils completely or reduces them to a fine powdered ash you can wipe away with a damp cloth. Smoke may appear through the oven vent. If heavy spills are not wiped up before cleaning, they may flame and cause more smoke and odor than usual. This is normal and safe and should not cause alarm. If available, use an exhaust fan during the self-cleaning cycle.
Self Clean is programmable for cleaning cycles ranging from 2 to 4 hour
CAUTION
Figure 6: Clean around the oven door gasket
IMPORTANT
Adhere to the following cleaning precautions:
The Self Clean key controls the self-cleaning feature. If you are planning to use the oven directly after a self-clean cycle remember to allow time for the oven to cool down and the oven door to unlock. This normally takes about one hour. A hour self-clean cycle will actually take about 4 hours to complete.
It is recommended to use a 2 hour self-clean cycle for light soils, a 3 hour cycle for average soils, and a 4 hour cycle for heavy soils.
To set the controls for a 3 hour self-cleaning cycle to start immediately and shut off automatically:
When the self-clean cycle is completed:
To stop or Interrupt a self-cleaning cycle:
If it becomes necessary to stop or interrupt a self-cleaning cycle due to excessive smoke or fire in the oven: Press OFF.
NOTE
When self clean is active you may check the time remaining by pressing the Self Clean once. The remaining time will appear in the display momentarily before reverting back to the time of day.
If your clock is set with the (default) 12 hr display mode, the Delay Start for a Self Clean can only be programmed to start up to 11 hours and 59 minutes after the time showing in the display (be sure to set the clock to current time before programming a delay start). To set a Delay Start Self Clean to begin 12 or more hours (maximum is hours and 59 minutes) after the time of setting, be sure to first set the control in the 24 Hr display mode.
If Self Clean was active and then interrupted by a power failure or cancelled before the oven was thoroughly cleaned, it may be necessary to run another Self Clean cycle.
If the oven temperature was high enough when Self Clean was interrupted the oven control may not allow another Self Clean cycle to be set for up to 4 hours.
The Self Clean and Delay Start keys control the delayed self-clean operation. The automatic timer will turn the oven on and off at the time you select in advance.
To set the control for the self cleaning cycle to start at a delayed time and shut off automatically (example: 3 hour self clean cycle to start at 4:30):
IMPORTANT
Do not attempt to force the door open while self clean is active or when the motor door latch is unlocking or the door lock indicator is flashing. Once the display is clear, the oven door can then be opened, and the timer will revert back to the time of day.
When the self-clean cycle is completed:
NOTE If Self Clean was active and then interrupted by a power failure or cancelled before the oven was thoroughly cleaned, it may be necessary to run another Self Clean cycle. If the oven temperature was high enough when the Self Clean was interrupted, the oven control may not allow another Self Clean to be set for up to 4 hours.
Your appliance was built with predetermined oven control settings (default). Over time, users may make changes to these settings. The following options have settings that can be modified and may have been changed since the appliance was new:
Note: If you choose to restore factory default settings, all of the above user preferences will be restored to their original settings (factory default).
To restore oven control to factory default settings:
Remove spills and any heavy soiling as soon as possible.
Regular cleaning will reduce the difficulty of major cleaning later.

Boiler Pan Cleaning Tips
To prevent grease from baking on, remove the broiler pan from the oven as soon as cooking is completed. Use oven mitts because the broiler pan is extremely hot. Pour off grease. Soak the pan in hot, soapy water.
Clean the broiler pan as soon as possible after each use. If necessary, use soap-filled steel wool pads. Heavy scouring may scratch the grid.
Figure 8: Broiler pan with insert
WARNING Never cover any slots, holes, or passages in the oven bottom or cover an entire oven rack with materials such as aluminum foil. Doing so blocks air flow through the oven and may cause carbon monoxide poisoning. Aluminum foil linings may trap heat, causing a fire hazard.
CAUTION Be sure the oven is unplugged and all parts are cool before replacing the oven light.
The interior oven light is located at the rear of the oven cavity and is covered by a glass shield. The glass shield must be in place whenever the oven is in use (Figure 9).
To replace the oven interior light bulb:
