You can stop the clean cycle by selecting the OFF position.

or the grill cannot be used.

It is common to see smoke and/ or flames 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.

At the end of the CLEAN cycle,

some gray ash or burned residue may remain inside the oven. This is a mineral deposit that does not burn or melt. The amount of ash depends on how heavily soiled the oven was before it was cleaned. It is easily removed, when the oven is cold, using a damp paper towel, sponge, or cloth.

Wipe off any smoke residue that remains on the front frame with Formula 409® or Fantastik®. If stain remains, use a mild liquid cleanser. The amount of smoke stain is directly related to the amount of food soil left in the oven at the time of self-cleaning. Clean the oven often.

✓Remove all utensils.

✓Remove Racks.

✓Clean the oven front frame and outer door edges. Wipe up large spillovers and grease.
