How to Delay Start of Cleaning

Delay Start is setting the oven timer to start the clean cycle automatically at a later time than the present time of day.

5.The Clean Time is preset for 3 hours. You can change the Clean Time to any time between 2 and 4 hours, depending on the amount of soil in your oven. If a shorter Clean Time is desired, press the – pad until the desired Clean Time is displayed.

6.Press the STOP TIME pad. “10:00”

STOP appears in the display and “STOP

TIME	TIME” flashes.
	The control automatically sets the
	Stop Time by adding the Clean Time
	to the time of day.
	In this example, the time of day is 7:00
	and the Clean Time is 3 hours. Adding 3
	hours to the time of day equals 10:00.

7.Change the Stop Time from 10:00 to 1:00 by pressing the + pad until “1:00” appears in the display. The words “DELAY CLEAN” will also appear in the display.

The self-clean cycle will automatically begin at 10:00 and finish at 1:00. The word “ON” will appear in the display at 10:00.

When the oven locks, the word “LOCK” will be displayed and a short time later the door latch handle will be locked in position. It will not be possible to open the oven door until the temperature drops below the lock temperature.

When the clean cycle is finished, the word “CLEAN” will go out in the display and the oven will begin to cool. When the oven temperature has fallen below the locking temperature the word ‘‘LOCK’’ goes out and the door can be opened.

8.When the LOCK light is off, slide the latch handle to the left as far as it will go and open the door.

Never force the latch handle. Wait until the word ‘‘LOCK’’ goes out in the display. Forcing the latch handle may damage the lock.
