How to Delay the Start of Cleaning

Touch the SELF CLEAN HI/LO pad once for a 5-hour clean time or twice for a 3-hour clean time.

A 3-hour self-clean time is recommended for use when cleaning small, contained spills. A self-clean time of 5 hours is recommended for a dirtier oven.

If a time other than 5 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 3 hours and 5 hours, depending on how dirty your oven is.

Touch the DELAY START pad.

Using the number pads, enter the time of day you want the clean cycle to start.

Touch the START pad.

The upper and lower oven doors lock automatically. The cooktop elements are also locked out during self-clean. The display will show the start time. It will not be possible to open the oven doors or use the cooktop until the temperature drops below the lock temperature and LOCKED goes off in the control display.

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

After a Clean Cycle

You may notice some white ash in the oven. Wipe it up with a damp cloth after the oven cools.

If white spots remain, remove them with a soap- filled steel wool pad and rinse thoroughly with a vinegar and water mixture.

These deposits are usually a salt residue that cannot be removed by the clean cycle.

If the oven is not clean after one clean cycle, repeat the cycle.

■You cannot set the oven for cooking or another self-clean cycle until the oven is cool enough for the door to unlock.

■While the oven is self-cleaning, you can touch the TIMER/CLOCK or CLOCK pad (depending on model) to display the time of day. To return to the clean countdown, touch the SELF CLEAN HI/LO pad.

■If the racks become hard to slide, apply a small amount of cooking oil to a paper towel and wipe the edges of the oven racks with the paper towel.
