Care and Cleaning

warning

Clean only the parts of the oven listed in this manual. Clean them only in the manner specified.

To avoid dangerous fumes or damage to your oven’s surfaces and accessories, use only the types of cleaning solutions specified in this manual.

To avoid burns, turn off the oven(s) and make sure that all parts are cool before cleaning.

To prevent damage, do not use abrasive or corrosive cleaners or applicators such as steel wool or scouring pads, on any part of the oven unless instructed to do so. Use only a sponge, soft cloth, fibrous or plastic brush or nylon cleaning pad for cleaning the surfaces of your oven.

Do not use a steam cleaner to clean the oven. Steam could penetrate the electrical components and cause a short circuit.

Do not try to remove heavy spills with a sharp object such as a knife or metal spatula. Sharp objects may scratch your oven’s surfaces.

How to Use the Self Clean Feature

important

On double ovens, the control panel will only allow one oven chamber to be self cleaned at a time due to the amount of power consumed. Also, the double oven’s computer will not allow you to cook in one oven while the other is in self clean mode.

1.Before self cleaning the oven, remove the racks, the convection filter, all cookware (pots, pans, forks, etc.), the meat probe, foil and any other loose objects from the oven chamber. See page 25 for filter cleaning instructions.

2.Clean soil from the porcelain surfaces of the door outside of the door gasket. Rinse surfaces well with a solution of vinegar and water, then wipe dry. Heav- ily soiled areas may be cleaned with a non-scratching scouring pad.

3.Clean the door gasket by dabbing it with a solution of water and mild soap.

Your Oven’s Self Clean Feature

About the Self Clean Cycle

The oven will run better and produce better baked goods when it is clean. During self cleaning, the oven is heated to very high temperatures which burn off any deposits on the surfaces of the oven. Self cleaning eliminates the need for manual scrubbing of interior surfaces. The self clean process takes about 2 to 4 hours.

It is normal for the oven to emit smoke during the first few self clean cycles. It is also normal for the oven to emit popping sounds during self cleaning.

These sounds are caused by the expansion and con- traction of metal surfaces when the oven heats up and cools down.

Self clean mode will not function if the meat probe is connected.

warning

Always wipe up excess grease and other food spills with a damp cloth prior to using the self clean cycle. Doing so will minimize smoke and increase efficiency. See proper cleaning instructions on this page.

Do not touch the outside surfaces of the oven during the self clean cycle. They will be hot.

Items left in the oven during self cleaning will become damaged or damage the oven. See page 25 for directions on polishing a rack that is left in the oven during self cleaning.

CAUTION

Take extreme caution when cleaning the door gasket. Rubbing or displacing it may damage the tight door seal required for proper cooking and self cleaning.

Do not try to force the door open after it is locked. Damage to the door or latch may result.

4.Turn on kitchen fans or vents to help remove odors during the self clean cycle.

5.Make sure the oven door is shut.

6.Press the SELF CLEAN key.

7.Press the DURATION key, then the 2, 3 or 4 key to select the number of hours of self clean time (2-light, 3-medium and 4-heavy). Longer self clean times are for cleaning a heavier build up of grease and grime.

8.Press the START key (located on the far left of the control panel.)

The control panel automatically locks the oven door during self cleaning. The latch prevents the door from being opened since the high interior oven temperatures can easily cause injury. If the door is not shut, an error message will appear on the display. To correct the prob- lem, press CANCEL · SECURE and wait approximately one minute, then close the door. When the door is prop- erly closed, start the self clean process again.

The display shows the self clean cycle status:

• The clean symbol indicates that self clean is in process.

• The lock symbol indicates that the door is latched.

ON” indicates that the heating elements are on.
