Using the self-cleaning oven.
Wipe up heavy soil on the oven
bottom.
Before a Self-Clean Cycle
FIRE HAZARD: Wipe grease and heavy soil from the
oven bottom before self-cleaning. Failure to do so
may result in an oven fire.
We recommend venting your kitchen with an open
window or using a ventilation fan or hood during the
first self-clean cycle.
Remove any broiler pan, broiler grid, probe, all
cookware and any aluminum foil from the oven.
NOTE:
If your oven is equipped with shiny, silver-colored
oven racks, we recommend you remove them
before you begin the self-clean cycle. They may
remain in the oven during the self-clean cycle, but
they will darken, lose their luster and become hard
to slide.
If your oven is equipped with gray porcelain-
coated oven racks, they may be left in the oven
during the self-clean cycle.
Soil on the front frame of the range and outside
the gasket on the door will need to be cleaned by
hand. Clean these areas with hot water, soap-filled
steel-wool pads or cleansers such as Soft Scrub
®
.
Rinse well with clean water and dry.
Do not clean the gasket. The fiberglass material of
the oven door gasket cannot withstand abrasion. It is
essential for the gasket to remain intact. If you notice
it becoming worn or frayed, replace it.
Make sure the oven light bulb cover is in place and
the oven light is off.
IMPORTANT: 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.
Double Oven and Canadian Models Only:
The surface units are automatically disabled during
the self-clean cycle. Make sure that all surface
unit controls are turned off at all times during the
self-clean cycle. Any surface unit that is set to an
“on” position while the self-clean cycle is operating
will automatically come on after the self-clean cycle
is finished, and could result in an “on” unattended
surface unit. Wait until the self-clean cycle is finished
to set and use the surface units.
How to Set the Oven for Self-Cleaning
The oven doors must be closed and all controls set
correctly for the cycle to work properly.
Touch the SELF CLEAN pad.
If a time other than the default time is
needed, use the number pads and enter the
desired clean time.
You can change the clean time to any time
between 3 hours and 5 hours, depending on how
dirty your oven is.
Touch the START pad.
The oven door locks automatically. The display
will show the clean time remaining. It will not
be possible to open the oven door until the
temperature drops below the lock temperature
and LOCKED/DOOR goes off in the control
display.
The word LOCKED/DOOR will flash and
the word DOOR will display if you set the clean
cycle and forget to close the oven door.
To stop a clean cycle, touch the CLEAR/
OFF pad. When LOCKED/DOOR goes off,
indicating the oven has cooled below the
locking temperature, you will be able to open
the door.
Double Ovens:
You can set a clean cycle in both ovens at the
same time; however, they will not self-clean
at the same time. The last oven set will
automatically delay its start until the end of the
first oven’s clean cycle.
When an oven is set to self-clean, both oven
doors will lock and the cooktop controls will lock
out. The ovens and cooktop cannot be u
sed
when an oven is set to self-clean.
