See the “General Cleaning” section for more information.

Preheating and Oven Temperature

Preheating

When beginning a Bake or Convect Bake cycle, the oven begins preheating after Start is touched. The oven will take approximately 12 to 17 minutes to reach 350°F (177°C) with all of the oven racks provided with your oven inside the oven cavity. Higher temperatures will take longer to preheat. The preheat cycle rapidly increases the oven temperature. The actual oven temperature will go above your set temperature to offset the heat lost when your oven door is opened to insert food. This ensures that when you place your food in the oven, the oven will begin at the proper temperature. Insert your food when the preheat tone sounds. Do not open the door during preheat until the tone sounds.

Oven Temperature

While in use, the oven elements will cycle on and off as needed to maintain a consistent temperature. They may run slightly hot or cool at any point in time due to this cycling. Opening the oven door while in use will release the hot air and cool the oven which could impact the cooking time and performance. It is recommended to use the oven light to monitor cooking progress.

Baking and Roasting

IMPORTANT: The convection fan and convection element may operate during the Bake function to enhance performance and heat distribution.

The oven will take approximately 12 to 17 minutes to reach 350°F with all oven racks inside the oven cavity. The preheat cycle rapidly increases the temperature inside the oven cavity. Higher temperatures will take longer to preheat. Factors that impact preheat times include room temperature, oven temperature, and the number of racks. Unused oven racks can be removed prior to preheating your oven to help reduce preheat time. The actual oven temperature will go above the set temperature to offset the heat lost when the oven door is opened to insert food. This ensures that the oven will begin at the proper temperature when you place food in the oven. Insert food when the preheat tone sounds. Do not open the door during preheat until the tone sounds.

During baking or roasting, the bake and broil elements will cycle on and off in intervals to maintain the oven temperature.

Depending on the model, if the oven door is opened during baking or roasting, the heating elements (bake and broil) will turn off approximately 30 seconds after the door is opened. They will turn on again approximately 30 seconds after the door is closed.

Convection

In a convection oven, the fan-circulated hot air distributes heat more evenly. This movement of hot air helps maintain a consistent temperature throughout the oven, cooking foods more evenly, while sealing in moisture.

Most foods, using convect baking mode, can be cooked by lowering cooking temperatures 25°F (14°C). The cooking time, can be shortened significantly when using Convect Roast, especially for large turkeys and roasts.

■ It is important not to cover foods with lids or aluminum foil so that surface areas remain exposed to the circulating air, allowing browning and crisping.

■ Keep heat loss to a minimum by opening the oven door only when necessary. It is recommended to use the oven light to monitor progress.

■ Choose cookie sheets without sides and roasting pans with lower sides to allow air to move freely around the food.

■ Test baked goods for doneness a few minutes before the minimum cooking time using a method such as a toothpick.

■ Use a meat thermometer or the temperature probe to determine the doneness of meats and poultry. Check the temperature of pork and poultry in 2 or 3 places.

OVEN CARE

High Temp Self-Cleaning Cycle

IMPORTANT: The health of some birds is extremely sensitive to the fumes given off during the High Temp Self-Cleaning cycle. Exposure to the fumes may result in death to certain birds. Always move birds to another closed and well-ventilated room.

Self-clean the oven before it becomes heavily soiled. Heavy soil results in longer cleaning and more smoke.

Keep the kitchen well-ventilated during the High Temp SelfCleaning cycle to help get rid of heat, odors, and smoke.

Do not block the oven vent(s) during the High Temp Self-Cleaning cycle. Air must be able to move freely. Depending on your model, see “Oven Vent” or “Oven Vents” section.

Do not clean, rub, damage or move the oven door gasket. The door gasket is essential for a good seal.

Prepare Oven:

■ Remove the broiler pan, grid, cookware and bakeware and, on some models, the temperature probe from the oven.

■ Remove oven racks to keep them shiny and easy to slide. See “General Cleaning” section for more information.

■ Remove any foil from the oven because it may burn or melt, damaging the oven.

■ 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 high temp 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 is normal and 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 High Temp Self-Cleaning Cycle uses very high temperatures, burning soil to a powdery ash.

The oven is preset for a 4 hour 30 minute clean cycle; however, the time can be changed. Suggested clean times are 3 hours 30 minutes for light soil and between 4 hours 30 minutes and 5 hours 30 minutes for average to heavy soil.

Use the following chart as a guide to determine the desired cleaning level.

Once the oven has completely cooled, remove ash with a damp cloth. To avoid breaking the glass, do not apply a cool damp cloth to the inner door glass before it has completely cooled.

The oven lights will not work during the High Temp Self-Cleaning cycle.

On double oven models, only one oven can self-clean at a time. If one oven is high temp self-cleaning, the other oven cannot be set or turned on.

NOTE: The oven has a 2 speed cooling fan motor. During selfclean, the fan(s) will operate at its highest speed to increase airflow to better exhaust the hotter air through the oven vent(s). An increase in noise may be noticeable during and after the self-clean cycle until the oven cools.

To Start High-Temp Self-Cleaning

Before high temp self-cleaning, make sure the door is closed completely or it will not lock and the cycle will not begin.

1. Touch SELF CLEAN (Upper or Lower Oven). Touch SELF CLEAN repeatedly to set a clean time other than 4 hours and 30 minutes. The clean time can be set between 3 hours and 30 minutes and 5 hours and 30 minutes.

Number keys cannot be used to set a clean time.

2. Touch START.

The oven will start locking the door and display “Locking Door.” Opening the door at this point will cancel the self-clean cycle. “Door Locked” will display once the door is locked. Then, the start time and stop time will appear in the oven display.

When the cycle is complete and the oven is cool, “self clean complete” will appear on the oven display and “DOOR LOCKED” will disappear. The door will not unlock until the oven is cool.

If enabled, end-of-cycle tones will sound, then reminder tones will sound every minute.

3. Touch CANCEL for the selected oven, or open and close the oven door to clear the oven display and/or stop reminder tones.

To Delay the Start of High Temp Self-Cleaning

Before starting a delayed High Temp Self-Clean cycle, 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. Touch SELF CLEAN (Upper or Lower Oven). Touch SELF CLEAN repeatedly to set a clean time other than 4 hours and 30 minutes. The clean time can be set between 3 hours and 30 minutes and 5 hours and 30 minutes.

Number keys cannot be used to set clean time.

2. Touch STOP TIME.

3. Touch the number keys to enter the time of day to stop.

4. Touch START

The start time and stop time is automatically calculated and displayed.

The door will not lock until the start time is reached.

When the start time is reached, the oven will automatically turn on. The oven will start locking the door and will display “Locking Door.” Opening the door at this point will cancel the self-clean cycle. “Door Locked” will display once the door is locked.

When the cycle is complete and the oven cools, “self clean complete” will appear on the oven display and “DOOR LOCKED” will disappear. The door will not unlock until the oven is cool.

5. Touch CANCEL for the selected oven, or open and close the oven door to clear the oven display.

To Stop High Temp Self-Cleaning anytime:

Touch Upper or Lower CANCEL. If the oven temperature is too high, the door will remain locked. It will not unlock until the oven cools.
