Self Cleaning the Oven
Cleaning and Maintenance
WARNING:
• During the elimination of soil during self-
cleaning, small amounts of Carbon
Monoxide can be created and the
fiberglass insulation could give off very
small amounts of formaldehyde during
the first several cleaning cycles. To
minimize exposure to these substances,
provide good ventilation with an open
window, or use a ventilation fan or hood.
• Do not block the oven vents(s) during the
self-cleaning cycle. Always operate the
unit according to the instructions in the
manual.
When self-cleaning, confirm that the door
locks and will not open. If the door does
not lock, stop self-clean operation and
contact service.
To avoid risk of personal injury, do not
operate the Cook top and ensure that all
surface controls are turned off while the
Self-Clean cycle is operating.
Our ovens feature a self-cleaning function that eliminates the manual labor
involved with cleaning your oven. During self-cleaning, the oven uses a very high
temperature to burn away food soil and grease.
• Do not clean parts or accessories in the self-clean oven.
• It is common to see smoke and/or an occasional flame-up during the Self-
Clean cycle, depending on the content and amount of soil remaining in the
oven. If a flame persists, turn off the oven and allow it to cool before opening
the door to wipe up the excessive food soil.
• The oven door locks at the beginning of the self-clean cycle.
• The oven light does not operate during this mode.
• During Self-Clean, the kitchen should be well ventilated to help eliminate
odors associated with Self-Clean. Odors will lessen with use.
• Four hours is the preset length of cleaning. The range can also be set to clean
for 3 or 5 hours.
• The mode automatically stops at the end of the clean hours.
• When the oven cools after cleaning, the automatic door lock will release and
the door can be opened.
• To cancel or stop while the mode is operating, press OFF.
• The door will not unlock until the oven reaches a safe temperature.
Preparing the Oven for Self Clean
WARNING
A flexible door gasket is necessary for a good seal. Do not clean, rub,
damage or move the gasket.
1. Remove all utensils and bakeware.
