Before a Clean Cycle

 

Safety

Wipe up heavy soil on the oven bottom.

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-cleaning cycle.

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

Touch the SELF CLEAN STD/LO pad once for a 3-hour clean time or twice for a 4-hour clean time.

A 3-hour self-clean time is recommended for use when cleaning small, contained spills. A self-clean time of 4 hours or longer is recommended for

a dirtier oven.

If a time other than 4 hours or

3 hours is needed, use the number pads and enter the desired clean time.

You can change the clean time to any time between 212 hours and 5 hours, depending on how dirty your oven is.

Touch 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 light goes off.

When the LOCKED light goes off, you will be able to open the door.

The word LOCKED will flash and the word door will display if you set the clean cycle and forget to close the oven door.

To stop a clean cycle, touch the CLEAR/OFF pad. When the LOCKED light goes off indicating the oven has cooled below the locking temperature, you will be able to open the door.

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