Self-Cleaning(Continued)

Follow these steps to Self-Clean the oven:

1.Complete all steps listed above for preparing the oven for Self-Cleaning.

2.Close the oven door completely.

3.Press the “SELF-CLEAN” touch pad. The oven will beep once, “CLEAN” will flash, and “– –:– –” will be displayed.

4.Press the “TIME•TEMP” “+” pad and the default time of “2:00” hours will be displayed.

5.Increase the self-clean time up to 4 hours (depending upon the amount of oven soil) by holding the “TIME•TEMP” “+” pad.

6.To delay the self-clean start to a more convenient time, press the “STOP TIME” touch pad. Then, press the “TIME•TEMP” “+” pad to set the time of day for the cycle to be complete. “DELAY TIMED” will appear in the clock display. The cycle can be delayed up to 11 hours and 50 minutes.

7.Approximately 30 to 60 seconds after selecting Self-Clean, the automatic door latch will lock the door. “LOCK” and “ON” will appear in the clock display. The oven will begin heating. The “ON” indicator will cycle on and off with the burner.

NOTES:

If Delay Timed mode has been set, the “ON” display and the oven heat will not turn on until the programmed time has been reached.

IMPORTANT

If the door is not closed completely, the automatic door latch will not be able to lock the door when the Self-Clean mode is selected. In this case, “door” will flash in the clock display. If this occurs, press the “CANCEL•SECURE” pad and wait approximately 1 minute. Repeat the Self-Clean steps from the beginning, being certain to close the door completely. Do not try to force the door open after it is locked, as the automatic latch can be damaged. If you need to unlock the door, turn off the Self-Clean cycle by pressing the “CANCEL•SECURE” pad. After approximately 1 minute, “LOCK” will disappear from the clock display, and the door will unlock. The door will remain locked until the oven temperature falls below 390˚F. Do not select any cooking function until the oven door is unlocked.

8.About 50 to 60 minutes will be required for the oven to reach the Self-Clean temperature of 850˚F.

9.The Self-Clean cycle can be stopped at any time by pressing “CANCEL•SECURE.”

10.After completion of the Self-Clean cycle, the oven will stop heating and the “ON” and “CLEAN” indicators will disappear from the clock display. Press the “CANCEL•SECURE” pad.

11.After the interior oven temperature falls below 390˚F, the door latch will release and “LOCK” will disappear from the clock display. The door can now be opened.

12.Open the door. After ensuring that the oven has cooled sufficiently to be safe, use a damp cloth or sponge to wipe out the powder residue found in the bottom of the oven. If white spots remain in the oven, remove them with a non-scratch scouring pad before using the oven again. These spots are normally salt that cannot be removed by a Self-Clean cycle.

13.Re-install the oven racks and convection fan filter before cooking in the oven.

IMPORTANT

With the oven at room temperature, if the Self-Clean mode is accidentally selected and the oven enters Self-Clean mode (indicated by “LOCK” and “ON” in the clock display), the user must cancel out of this mode before attempting to select a different mode. To cancel, press the “CANCEL•SECURE” pad. Wait at least 60 seconds before attempting to select another mode. This allows the door latch time to unlock.

SELF-CLEANING TIPS

1.If any soil remains in the oven after completion of a Self-Cleaning cycle, repeat the cycle if desired. Increase the cleaning time during future cycles.

2.Clean the oven regularly to prevent excessive soil build-up. This will increase the efficiency of the Self-Clean cycle and reduce the amount of smoke and odors generated.

3.Self-Clean in the cooler evening hours after cooking is complete and when electricity rates are lower.

4.In the double oven, if one oven is in the Self-Clean mode the other oven is inoperable.
