Self-Clean Oven Cycle (RightOven)
Adhere to the Following Precautions:
- Allow the oven to cool before cleaning.
- Wear rubber gloves when cleaning any exterior parts of the oven manually.
During the self-clean cycle, the outside of the wall can become very hot
to touch. DO NOT leave small children unattended near the appliance. A ventilation
system starts automatically; it is normal for the hot air to be evacuated through the
front of the appliance.
Before cleaning any part of the oven, be sure the electronic oven control
is turned off or else push CANCEL pad. Wait until the oven is cool.
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.
DO NOT use commercial oven cleaners or oven protective coatings in or around any
part of the self-cleaning oven. DO NOT clean the oven door gasket. The gasket on the
oven door is essential for a good seal. Care should be taken not to rub, damage or
move the gasket. DO NOT use aluminum foil to line the oven bottom. This may affect
cooking, or the foil could melt and damage the oven surface.
A self-cleaning oven cleans itself with high temperatures (well above cooking
temperatures) which eliminate soil completely or reduce it to a fine powdered ash you
can wash away with damp cloth.
Preparing the Oven for Self-Cleaning
1. Remove excess spillovers in the oven cavity before starting the self-dean cycle. To
clean, use hot soapy water and a cloth. Large spillovers can cause heavy smoke or
fire when subjected to high temperatures. DO NOT allow food spills with a high
sugar or acid content (such as tomatoes, sauerkraut, fruit juices or pie filling) to
remain on the surface as they may cause a dull spot even after cleaning.
2. Clean all soil from the oven frame and the inner door (see illustration to right).
These areas heat suffidently during self-cleaning cycle to burn soil on. Clean with
soap and water. Do not clean door seal because doing so can permanently damage
it.
3. Remove the broiler pan and insert all utensils and any foil. These items do not
withstand high cleaning temperatures.
4. Oven racks may be left in the oven or may be removed, if they go through the clean
cycle, their color will turn slightly dull. After the cycle is completed and the oven
has cooled, rub the sides or the racks with wax paper or a cloth containing a small
amount of baby oil or salad oil. This will make the racks glide easier.
What to Expect During Cleaning
While the oven self-cleans, it heats to temperatures much higher than those used in
normal cooking. Sounds of metal expansion and contraction are normal. Odor is also
normal as the food soil is being removed. Smoke may appear through the oven vent,
located on the top of the control panel.
if heavy spillovers 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.
NOTE: A smoke eliminator in the oven vent converts the smoke from the self-cleaning
process into a colorless vapor.
Setting the Controls for Clean Cycle
For setting a self-cleaning cycle, refer to the Electronic Oven Control Guide.
