Before a Clean Cycle

Quick Reminder:

1.Prepare the oven for cleaning.

2.Close the oven door.

3.Press the CLEAN pad.

4.Press the INCREASE or DECREASE pad to set clean time.

Step 1: Remove the broiler pan, broiler rack, all cookware and any aluminum foil from the oven—they cannot withstand the high cleaning temperatures. (Oven shelves may be left in oven. NOTE: Shelves will discolor after the self-clean cycle.)

Step 2: Wipe up heavy soil on the oven bottom. If you use soap rinse thoroughly before self cleaning to prevent staining.

Step 3: Clean spatters or spills on oven front frame (A), under the front edge of the oven vent, the door liner outside the door gasket and the front edge of the oven cavity (about one inch into the oven). Use detergent and hot water with a soap-filled steel wool pad, then rinse well with a vinegar and water mixture. This will help prevent a brown residue from forming when the oven is heated. Buff these areas with a

dry cloth.

Clean top, sides and outside front of oven door with soap and water. Do not use abrasives or oven cleaners.

Do not let water run down through openings (B) in the top of the door. To help prevent water from getting in these slots when cleaning, open the door as far as it will go.

Do not rub or clean the door gasket (C)— the fiberglass material of the gasket has an extremely low resistance to abrasion. An intact and well-fitting oven door gasket is essential for energy-efficient oven operation and good baking results. If you notice the gasket becoming worn, frayed or damaged in any way or if it has become displaced on the door, you should have it replaced.

Step 4: Close the door and make sure the oven light

(D)is off. The door will latch automatically when the CLEAN pad is pushed.

Oven shelves may be cleaned in the self-cleaning oven. However, they will darken, lose their luster and become hard to slide. Wipe the shelf supports with cooking oil after self-cleaning to make shelves slide more easily.

Caution: Drip pans should never be cleaned in the self-cleaning oven.

Do not use commercial oven cleaners or oven protectors in or near the self-cleaning oven. A combination of any of these products plus the high clean cycle temperatures may damage the porcelain finish of the oven.

Important

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

How to Set Oven for Cleaning

Step 1: Follow steps above to prepare the oven for cleaning.

Step 2: Close the oven door.

Step 4: Press the INCREASE or DECREASE pad until desired Clean Time is displayed.

Clean Time is normally 3 hours. You can change the Clean Time to anywhere between 2 and 4 hours, depending on how dirty the oven is.

The self-clean cycle will automatically begin within a few seconds and the word “ON” will appear on the display. When the oven locks the word “LOCK” will be displayed and, a short time later, the door will be locked in position. It will not be possible to open the oven door until the temperature drops below the lock temperature.

Step 5: When the LOCK light is off open the door.
