Oven Self-cleaning

OVEN SELF-CLEANING

The self-cleaning oven of your new range features pyrolytic self-cleaning. When set in the CLEAN mode, the oven reaches a high temperature that burns off the food soil.

When the oven is set for CLEAN, only the cooktop burners may be used.

It is common to see smoke and/or flames during the CLEAN cycle, depending on the content and amount of soil remaining in the oven. If a flame persists, turn off the oven and allow it to cool before opening the door to wipe up the excessive food soil.

At the end of the clean cycle, some gray ash or burned residue may remain inside the oven. This is a mineral deposit that does not burn or melt. The amount of ash depends on how heavily soiled the oven was before the oven was cleaned. It is easily removed, once the oven has cooled, using a damp paper towel, sponge, or cloth.

Wipe off any smoke residue that remains on the front frame with Formula 409® or Fantastik®. If stain remains, use a mild liquid cleanser. The amount of smoke stain is directly related to the amount of food soil left in the oven at the time of self-cleaning. Clean the oven often.

OVEN DOOR LOCK DURING SELF-CLEAN

When the clean cycle starts, the lock light turns on, and the automatic door lock cycle begins. Do Not attempt to open the door when the lock light is on. You can stop the cycle by pushing the off button. The lock light will turn off only after the oven has cooled below 550ºF, and the automatic door lock has completed its cycle to the open position.

Wipe out puddles of grease and any loose soil that can be easily removed.

Remove any soil that is outside the door seal area. This appliance is designed to clean the oven interior and that portion of the door that is inside the oven. The outer edges of the door and the oven cavity are not in the cleaning zone. Wipe this area clean BEFORE SETTING THE OVEN TO SELF-CLEAN.
