light will flash. DO NOT open the oven door while the light is flashing (it takes about 15 seconds for the oven door to lock).

When the self-clean cycle has completed:

1.The time of day will appear in the display window and the “Clean” and "LOCK" light will continue to glow.

2.Once the oven has cooled down for about 1 HOUR and the "LOCK" light has gone out, the oven door can be opened.

3.A moist cloth is the best way to wipe out the remaining ash from the oven.

Stopping or interrupting a self-clean cycle

If it becomes necessary to stop or interrupt a self- cleaning cycle once it has been activated:

1.Press “Clean/Off”.

2.Once the oven has cooled down for about 1 HOUR and the "LOCK" light has turned off, the oven door can be opened.

3.Restart the Self-Clean cycle once all conditions have been corrected.

CAUTION:

• To avoid possible burns use care when opening the oven door after the self- cleaning cycle. Stand to the side of the oven when opening the door to allow hot air or steam to escape.

•DO NOT force the oven door open. This can damage the automatic door locking system. Use caution and avoid possible burns when opening the door after the self-cleaning cycle has completed. The oven may still be VERY HOT.

Note:

•Whenever the self-clean feature is active you may check the amount of time remaining in the self-clean cycle by pressing the “Self Clean” pad. Remember the range door cannot be opened until the range has cooled sufficiently. You will need to add about 1 hour to the time displayed before you can use the range for cooking.

•When the oven is cool, wipe away any residue or powdered ash with a damp cloth or paper towel.

Avoid These Cleaners

Do not use commercial oven cleaners such as Easy Off®. They may damage the oven finish or parts.

Never use scouring pads or abrasive cleaners.
