Keep the kitchen well ventilated during the Self-Cleaning cycle to help get rid of normal heat, odors and smoke.

Clean the oven before it gets heavily soiled. Cleaning a very soiled oven takes longer and results in more smoke than usual.

If the Self-Cleaning cycle doesn’t get the oven as clean as you expected, the cycle may not have been set long enough or you may not have pre- pared the oven properly. Set the Self-Cleaning cycle longer the next time and hand clean areas noted on page 16.

To stop the Self-Cleaning cycle at anytime:

4.Push in and turn the Stop Time Knob clockwise until it points to the right time ot day.

2.Turn the Oven Selector and Oven Temperature Control to OFF.When the “locked” Signal Light goes off, move the Lock Lever back to the left. DO NOT FORCE IT. Wait until it moves easily.

How It Works

During the Self-Cleaning cycle, the oven gets much hotter than it does for

baking or broiling...approximately 875°F (468°C). This heat breaks up grease and soil and burns it off.

Notice that the heating stops when the 3-hour setting is up, but that it takes longer for the oven to cool down enough to unlock.
