■ Hand clean inside door edge and the 1½" (3.8 cm) area
around the inside oven cavity frame, being certain not to
move or bend the gasket. This area does not get hot enough
during self-cleaning to remove soil. Do not let water, cleaner,
etc. enter slots on door frame. Use a damp cloth to clean this
area.
■ Wipe out any loose soil to reduce smoke and avoid damage.
At high temperatures, foods react with porcelain. Staining,
etching, pitting or faint white spots can result. This will not
affect cooking performance.
How the Cycle Works
IMPORTANT: The heating and cooling of porcelain on steel in the
oven may result in discoloring, loss of gloss, hairline cracks and
popping sounds.
The Self-Cleaning cycle uses very high temperatures, burning soil
to a powdery ash.
The oven is preset for a 3 hour 30 minute clean cycle; however
the time can be changed. Suggested clean times are 2 hours
30 minutes for light soil and between 3 hours 30 minutes and
4 hours 30 minutes for average to heavy soil.
Once the oven has completely cooled, remove ash with a damp
cloth. Do not wipe down any inside surfaces until the oven has
completely cooled down. Applying a cool damp cloth to the inner
door glass before it has cooled completely could result in the
glass breaking.
The oven light will not work during the Self-Cleaning cycle.
On combination oven models, the upper oven will not work
during the Self-Cleaning cycle.
To Self-Clean:
Before self-cleaning, make sure the door is closed completely or
it will not lock and the cycle will not begin.
1. Press CLEAN.
Press the number pads to set a clean time other than 3 hours
30 minutes. The clean time can be set between 2 hours
30 minutes and 4 hours 30 minutes in 30-minute increments.
2. Press START.
The lower oven door will automatically lock and “DOOR
LOCKED,” the start time and stop time will appear on the
lower oven display. The door will not unlock until the lower
oven cools.
When the cycle is complete and the oven cools, “End” will
appear on the lower oven display and “DOOR LOCKED” will
disappear.
3. Press any pad or open the lower oven door to clear the lower
oven display.
To Delay Start Self-Clean:
Before delay starting Self-Clean, make sure the clock is set to the
correct time of day. See “Clock” section. Also, make sure the
door is closed completely or it will not lock and the cycle will not
begin.
1. Press CLEAN.
Press the number pads to set a clean time other than 3 hours
30 minutes. The clean time can be set between 2 hours
30 minutes and 4 hours 30 minutes.
2. Press STOP TIME.
3. Press the number pads to enter the time of day to stop.
4. Press START.
The start time is automatically calculated and displayed.
The door will automatically lock and “DOOR LOCKED,”
“DELAY,” and the stop time will also appear on the display.
The door will not unlock until the oven cools.
When the start time is reached, the lower oven will
automatically turn on.
When the cycle is complete and the oven cools, “End” will
appear on the lower oven display and “DOOR LOCKED” will
disappear.
5. Press any pad or open the lower oven door to clear the oven
display.
To Stop Self-Clean anytime:
Press LOWER OVEN OFF/CANCEL. If the lower oven
temperature is too high, the door will remain locked. It will not
unlock until the lower oven cools.
General Cleaning
