Delayed Self-Clean

Use a 2 hour self-clean cycle for light soils, a 3 hour cycle for average soils, and a 4 hour cycle for heavy soils to assure satisfactory results.

!CAUTION

To avoid risk of personal injury, use care when opening the oven door after the self-cleaning cycle. Stand to the side of the oven when opening the door to allow hot air or steam to escape. The oven may still be

VERY HOT.

DO NOT force the oven door open. This can damage the automatic door locking system.

1.Confirm clock shows the correct time of day.

2.Press CLEAN pad.

“CLN TIME” displays.

3.Press and hold or pad until “3 HR:00” displays.

Set the cleaning time based on the amount of soil you have—light, medium or heavy. *See above.

When the controls are set, the motor driven lock begins to close automatically and the “LOCKED” indicator light will be displayed. (It takes about 15 seconds for the lock to close.)

“Clean” light comes on. “Oven” light comes on and cycles with the oven burners.

4.Press STOP TIME pad.

Time-of-day that the self-cleaning cycle ends displays.

“CLN STOP TIME” display.

5.Press and hold or pad until the time-of-day that you want the cleaning to end displays.

The control calculates backward from the set stop time to determine when the self-cleaning cycle should begin. The words “DELAY” and “CLN STOP TIME” glows in the display.

The self-cleaning cycle comes on automatically at the calculated time. At that time, “DELAY” goes

out and ““ O ”” appears.

1.Press OVEN CANCEL pad.

2.Once the oven has cooled for approximately

1 HOUR and “LOCKED” in the display has gone out, then the oven door can be opened.

If the self-cleaning cycle is cancelled while at a high temperature, make sure the word "LOCKED" is not in the display and the oven has cooled down for at least 1 HOUR before trying to open the oven door.

When the Self-Clean Cycle is Completed

1.The time of day will appear in the display window and the word “LOCKED” remains in the display until oven cools.

2.Once the oven has cooled for approximately

1 HOUR and the word “LOCKED” shown in the display has gone out, then the oven door can be opened.

DO NOT force the oven door open. This can damage the automatic door locking system. Use caution when opening the door after the self- cleaning cycle is completed. The oven may still be

VERY HOT.
