C Oven Care and Use ManualCare and Cleaning
Page 28
Your new oven features two pyrolytic self-cleaning
ovens. When set into the CLEAN mode, the oven
reaches a high temperature that burns off the food soil.
• Only one oven can be set to self clean at a time. The
second oven cannot be used while one is self clean-
ing.
• The microwave mode can be used when the Lower
oven is self-cleaning.
• It is common to see smoke and/or an occasional
flame-up during the CLEAN cycle, depending on
the content and amount of soil remaining in the oven.
If a flame persists, turn off the oven and allow it to
cool before opening the door to wipe up the
excessive food soil.
• The oven light will not turn on when the oven is set
for a clean cycle.
Self-Cleaning The Oven

BEFORE YOU SELF-CLEAN

1. Hand-clean the oven door edge, window, oven front
frame and oven cavity edges (shaded areas below).
They do not get hot enough during the cleaning cycle
for soil to burn away. Use a soapy sponge or plastic
scrubber or an S.O.S.® pad. DO NOT RUB THE
GASKET.
NOTE: Due to the high temperatures used for
self-cleaning, the oven may develop fine hairlike
lines or surface roughness. This is a common con-
dition and does not affect either the cooking or
the cleaning performance of the oven.
IMPORTANT: Be sure to let the inside win-
dow glass in the oven door cool completely
before wiping up any ash left from the clean
cycle.

Wipe up large overspills and grease with
paper towels.
3. Remove all utensils.
4. Remove oven racks. If the oven racks are left
in the oven during a self-cleaning cycle, they
will permanently lose their shiny finish and
change to a dull dark finish. See the Oven
Cleaning Chart for proper care, Page 30-31.
5. Be sure the light is turned off on the control panel
and the bulb and glass cover are in place, see Page
33.
6. Heat and odors are normal during the Self-Cleaning
cycle. Keep the kitchen well ventilated.

AFTER SELF-CLEAN

• At the end of the CLEAN cycle, gray ash remains
inside the oven. The amount of ash depends on how
heavily soiled the oven was before it was cleaned. It
is easily removed, when the ov en is cold, using a damp
sponge or cloth. If the racks do not slide easily after
being cleaned, lightly rub rack side rails with
vegetable oil.
