Prepare Cooktop and Storage Drawer:
• Remove plastic items from the cooktop because they may
melt.
• Remove all items from the storage drawer.
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 to 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 of the inside surfaces until the oven
has completely cooled down. Applying a cool damp cloth to the
inner door glass before it has completely cooled could result in
the glass breaking.
The oven light will not work during the Self-Cleaning cycle.
To Self-Clean:
1. Close oven door completely.
2. On Self-cleaning models and Convection self-cleaning
models, turn the oven function selector knob to CLEAN. The
oven door will be locked automatically. The CLEAN indicator
light will turn on.
If the oven door is not closed completely, no indicator lights
will come on and the oven will not operate. Close the oven
door completely.
3. The display will show "3:00" and the "PROGRAMME
indicator" will come on indicating a 3 hour clean cycle. Press
up or down button(s) to decrease or increase the cleaning
time to between 21/2to 41/2hours.
4. The self-clean cycle will automatically start 5 seconds after
the last data change is made.
5. During the Self-cleaning cycle, the OVEN indicator light will
cycle on and off as the oven cycles on and off to maintain the
Self-cleaning temperature.
6. When Self-cleaning is over, "End" will be displayed. Press the
CLOCK button to return to the time of day display. Turn the
controls to the OFF position.
The CLEAN indicator light will remain on and the oven door
will remain locked until the oven cools.
To cancel the Self-cleaning cycle:
Turn the oven function selector knob to the OFF position at any
time during the Self-cleaning cycle. Press the CLOCK button to
cancel timer and return to time of day display. The oven door will
remain locked until the oven cools.
IMPORTANT: Before cleaning, make sure all controls are off and
the cooktop is cool. Always follow label instructions on cleaning
products. Soap, water and a soft cloth or sponge are suggested
first unless otherwise noted.
To help make periodic cleaning easier, do not allow basin(s) to fill
with grease.
EXTERIOR PORCELAIN ENAMEL SURFACES
(on some models)
Food spills containing acids, such as vinegar and tomato, should
be cleaned as soon as the entire appliance is cool. These spills
may affect the finish.
• Glass cleaner, mild liquid cleaner or non-abrasive scrubbing
pad:
Gently clean around the model and serial number plate
because scrubbing may remove numbers.
CONTROL KNOBS
Do not use steel wool, abrasive cleansers or oven cleaner.
Do not soak knobs.
When replacing knobs, make sure knobs are in the OFF position.
On some models, do not remove seals under knobs.
• Soap and water or dishwasher:
Pull knobs straight away from control panel to remove.
COIL ELEMENT (on some models)
Your range is designed for ease of cleaning. Most cleaning can
be done with soap and water or other mild household cleaners.
Cleaning your range whenever spills or soiling occurs will keep it
looking and operating like new.
DO NOT use commercial oven cleaners on the exterior.
Coil element removal/replacement
The coil elements are self-cleaning. Any spillage will burn off.
However, removal of large pieces of food or excess oil is
recommended to prevent smoking.
DO NOT IMMERSE COIL ELEMENTS IN WATER.
NOTE: Drip bowls reflect heat back to cookware placed on the
coil elements. They also help catch spills. When they are kept
clean, they reflect heat better and look new longer.
Removing a coil element
• Make sure all coil elements are turned off and cool before
removing coil elements and drip bowls.
• Lift the edge of the element, opposite the receptacle, just
enough to clear the drip bowl.
• Pull the element straight away from the receptacle.
• Lift out the drip bowl.
Replacing a coil element
• Make sure all coil elements are turned off before replacing
elements and drip bowls.
• Line up openings in the drip bowl with the coil element
receptacle.
• Hold the element as level as possible with the terminal just
started into the receptacle. Gently push the element terminal
into the receptacle.
• When terminal is pushed into the receptacle as far as it will
go, push down the edge of the element opposite the
receptacle.
