What to Expect During Cleaning

AUTOMATIC LOCK OFF OF THE SURFACE ELEMENTS

(30” models with a self-cleaning oven only)

During the self-clean cycle, the surface elements, when used, are subjected to high heat. To ensure maximum element life, a safeguard locks off the use of the surface elements during the self-clean cycle. Once the oven cleaning cycle is complete and the oven door can be opened, the surface elements can be utilized.

While the oven is in operation, the oven heats to temperatures much higher than those used in normal cooking. Sounds of metal expansion and contraction are normal. Odor is also normal as the food soil is being removed. Smoke may appear through the oven vent, located on the top of the control panel.

If heavy spillovers are not wiped up before cleaning, they may flame and cause more smoke and odor than usual. This is normal and safe and should not cause alarm. If available, use an exhaust fan during the self-cleaning cycle.

NOTE: A smoke eliminator in the oven vent converts most of the soil into a colorless vapor.

Setting the Controls for a Clean Cycle

For the setting of the clean cycle, refer to the section on the timer or Electronic oven control.

Upswept lift cooktop (some models)

On some models, the cooktop, when equipped with coil elements, can be raised to facilitate cleaning of the panel.

To raise the cooktop, grab the sides and lift from the front. Use the two sliding wire supports located on each side of the cooktop and pull them toward you, to the lock position, in order to maintain the cooktop in the raised position while cleaning the panel.

Lower the cooktop slowly; be careful not to pinch fingers. Do not let the cooktop fall freely, as this may damage the porcelain finish.

To Remove and Replace the Oven Door

1.Open the door fully.

2.Pull up the lock located on both hinge supports and engage them in the hook of the hinge levers. You may have to apply a little downward pressure on the door to pull the locks fully over the hooks.

3.Grab the door by the sides, pull the bottom of the door up and toward you to disengage the hinge supports.

Keep pulling the bottom of the door toward you while rotating the top of the door toward the range to completely disengage the hinge levers.

4.Proceed in reverse to reinstall the door.

Make sure the hinge supports are fully engaged before unlocking the hinge levers.
