Wipe up heavy soil on the oven bottom.

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

NOTE:

If your oven is equipped with shiny, silver-colored oven shelves, remove them before you begin the self-clean cycle.

If your oven is equipped with gray porcelain-coated oven shelves, they may be left in the oven during the self-clean cycle.

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 or plastic scouring 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

Follow the directions in the Before a

Clean Cycle section.

 

Latch the door.

 

NOTE: Never force the latch. If the oven is

 

 

too hot, you will not be able to slide the

Self

latch. Allow the oven to cool.

 

Clean

Touch the Self Clean pad.

 

Touch the + or pads until the

 

desired Clean Time is displayed.

 

The Clean Time is normally 4 hours and 20

Start

minutes. You can change the Clean Time to any

time between 3 and 5 hours, depending on the

On

amount of soil in your oven.

 

Touch the Start/On pad.

 

The self-clean cycle will automatically

 

 

begin after Clean is displayed and the

 

time countdown appears in the display.

While the oven is self-cleaning, you can touch the Clock pad to display the time of day. To return to the clean countdown, touch the Self Clean pad.

The oven shuts off automatically when the clean cycle is complete, and 0:00 will flash in the display.

Slide the latch handle to the left as far as it will go and open the door.

NOTE: Never force the latch handle. Forcing the handle will damage the door lock mechanism.
