Self Clean

As soon as Self Clean becomes active, a motor driven lock mechanism will begin locking the oven door automatically, and door Loc will appear in the display (See Fig. 1). DO NOT open the oven door when door Loc is displayed (allow 15 seconds for the lock mechanism to lock the oven).

Once the oven door is locked, CLn will appear in the display indicating Self Clean has started (Fig. 2). During the cycle check the amount of clean time remaining by pressing the Self Clean keypad again.

When Self Clean is finished:

Use caution when opening the oven door after self-cleaning. The oven may still be VERY HOT and can cause burns. To avoid possible burns stand to the side of the oven when opening the oven door to allow hot air or steam to escape.

1.CLn message will turn off and Hot will appear in display window (See Fig. 3).

2.Once the oven has cooled down (about 1 hour) and Hot is no longer displayed the door OPn message will appear (Fig. 4). When this message turns off the oven door may be opened.

3.When the oven interior has completely cooled, wipe away any residue or powdered ash with a damp cloth or paper towel.

Important notes:

•The kitchen area should be well ventilated using an open window, ventilation fan or exhaust hood during the first self-clean cycle to help eliminate the normal odors associated with the first self-clean cycle.

•When the clean time finishes the oven door will remain locked until the range has cooled sufficiently. In addition to the programmed clean time, you must allow about an additional hour for the oven to cool before you will be able to open the oven door.

•If Self Clean is interrupted by power failure or cancelled before the oven was thoroughly cleaned, it may be necessary to run a self-clean cycle again. If the oven reached a high enough temperature when interrupted you may need to allow up to 4 hours for the oven to cool before Self Clean can be run again.

•The Self Clean function will not operate whenever a radiant surface element is ON or the Control Lock is active.
