Page 22

Prepare Cooktop and Storage Drawer:

Remove plastic items from the cooktop because they may melt.

Remove all items from the storage drawer.

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 Self-Cleaning cycle uses very high temperatures, burning soil to a powdery ash.

Style 1 - Electronic Oven Control

The clean cycle can be set at one of two levels Maxi Clean (4 hours 30 minutes) or Quick Clean (2 hours 30 minutes).

Suggested clean times are 2 hours 30 minutes for light soil or 4 hours 30 minutes for average to heavy soil.

Once the oven has completely cooled, remove ash with a damp cloth. Do not wipe down any of the inside surfaces until the oven has completely cooled down. Applying a cool damp cloth to the inner door glass before it has cooled completely could result in the glass breaking.

The oven light will not work during the Self-Cleaning cycle.

The rear surface elements will not work during the Self-Cleaning cycle.

Style 2 & 3 - Electronic Oven Control

The oven is preset for a 3 hour 30 minute clean cycle, but the time can be changed. Suggested clean times are 2 hours

30 minutes for light soil and between 3 hours 30 minutes and 4 hours 30 minutes for average to heavy soil.

Once the oven has completely cooled, remove ash with a damp cloth. Do not wipe down any of the inside surfaces until the oven has completely cooled down. Applying a cool, damp cloth to the inner door glass before it has cooled completely could result in the glass breaking.

The oven light will not work during the Self-Cleaning cycle
