Safety

Operating Instructions

Wipe up heavy soil on the oven bottom.

Before a Clean Cycle

The range must be completely cool in order to set the self-clean cycle.

We recommend venting with an open window or using a ventilation fan or hood during the first self-clean cycle.

Remove all cookware and any aluminum foil from the oven.

The oven shelves can be self-cleaned, but they will darken, lose their luster and become hard to slide.

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

The enamel grid and broiler pan may be cleaned in the self-cleaning oven. However, to help prevent heavy smoke caused by self- cleaning the greasy soil in the pan, you must first clean off the excess grease.

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 Delay the Start of Cleaning

You can set the oven control to delay start the oven, self-clean for a specific length of time and then turn off automatically.

Make sure the clock shows the correct time of day.

Press the SELF CLEAN pad.

Using the INCREASE or DECREASE pad, enter the desired clean time.

Press the STOP TIME pad. The earliest stop time you can set will appear in the display.

Using the INCREASE or DECREASE pad,

enter the time of day you want the clean cycle to stop.

The oven control will automatically subtract the amount of cleaning time from the stop time to determine when cleaning will begin.

The door locks automatically. It will not be possible to open the oven door until the temperature drops below the lock temperature and the LOCKED DOOR light goes off.

When the LOCKED DOOR light is off, open the door.

Customer Service

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 until

 

the oven is cool enough for the door to unlock.

While the oven is self-cleaning, you can touch the CLOCK pad to display the time of day. To return to the clean countdown, press the COOKING TIME pad.

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