SECTION SIX: CARE AND MAINTENANCE

Self-Cleaning the Oven

LARGE GAS MAIN OVEN

The self-cleaning mode of your new range features pyrolytic self-cleaning. When set to the CLEAN mode, the oven reaches a high temperature, approximately 830°F, that burns off the food soil.

When the oven is set for CLEAN, the cooktop burners and electric griddle may be used. The secondary oven (48" models), the griddle and/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.

BEFORE SELF CLEANING THE OVEN

Wipe out puddles of grease and any loose soil that can be easily removed.

Remove any soil that is outside the door seal area. This appliance is designed to clean the oven interior and that portion of the door that is inside the oven. The outer edges of the door and the oven cavity are not in the cleaning zone. Wipe this area clean BEFORE

SETTING THE OVEN TO SELF-CLEAN.

•Remove all utensils.

•Remove Racks.

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

•Be sure the light bulbs and glass covers are in place.

•Turn on the ventilator hood above the range and leave it on until the oven has completed the self-clean cycle.

IMPORTANT: For the first Self-Cleaning cycle, remove small animals and birds from the kitchen and surrounding areas. Open a nearby window for additional ventilation.

If another clean cycle is initiated at the end of a clean cycle and the temperature of the oven is still above 500°, the LED will start blinking to indicate the range has not completely cooled down after the first cycle. The oven cannot be used until the oven temperature drops below 500° and the door is unlocked.

LOCK

When the CLEAN cycle starts, the LOCK light turns on, and the automatic door lock cycle begins. The temperature gauge begins to move to CLEAN five minutes after the clean mode is initiated. Check the door when the LOCK light comes on to confirm that it is locked. You can stop the clean cycle by selecting the OFF position. The lock light will turn off only after the oven has cooled below 500°F, and the automatic door lock has completed its cycle to the open position.

Make certain that the oven door is locked at the beginning of the self-cleaning cycle.
