Using the self-cleaning oven.

ge.com

The oven door must be closed and all controls must be set correctly for the cycle to work properly.

Safety

Wipe up heavy soil on the oven bottom. (appearance may vary)

Before a Clean Cycle

We recommend venting your kitchen with an open window or using

a ventilation fan or hood during the first self-clean cycle.

Remove shelves, broiler pan, broiler grid, all cookware and any aluminum foil from the oven.

The shiny, silver-colored oven shelves (on some models) can be self-cleaned, but they will darken, lose their luster and become hard to slide.

Soil on the front frame of the range and outside the gasket on the door will need to be cleaned by hand. Clean these areas with hot water, soap-filled steel-wool pads or cleansers such as Soft Scrub®.. Rinse well with clean water and dry.

Do not clean the gasket. The fiberglass material of the oven door gasket cannot withstand abrasion. It is essential for the gasket to remain intact. If you notice it becoming worn or frayed, replace it.

Wipe up any heavy spillovers on the oven bottom.

Make sure the oven light bulb cover is in place and the oven light is off.

IMPORTANT: The health of some birds is extremely sensitive to the fumes given off during the self-cleaning cycle of any range. Move birds to another well ventilated room.

How to Set the Oven for Cleaning

Press the SELF CLEAN pad.

Using the INCREASE or DECREASE pads, enter the desired clean time, if a time other than 4 hours is needed.

Clean cycle time is normally 4 hours. You can change the clean time to any time between 3 hours and 5 hours, depending on how dirty your oven is.

Press the START pad.

The door locks automatically. The display will show the clean time remaining. It will not be possible to open the oven door until the temperature drops below the lock temperature and the LOCKED DOOR light goes off.

The oven shuts off automatically when the clean cycle is complete.

When the LOCKED DOOR light is off, open the door.

The words LOCK DOOR will flash and the oven control will signal if you set the clean cycle and forget to close the oven door.

To stop a clean cycle, press the

CLEAR/OFF pad. When the LOCKED DOOR light goes off indicating the oven has cooled below the locking temperature, open the door.
