How the Cycle Works

IMPORTANT: The heating and cooling of porcelain on steel in the oven may result in discoloring, loss of gloss, hairline cracks and popping sounds.

The Self-Cleaning cycle uses very high temperatures, burning soil to a powdery ash.

The oven is preset for a 3 hour 30 minute clean cycle, however the time can be changed. Suggested clean times are 2 hours 30 minutes for light soil and between 3 hours 30 minutes to 4 hours 30 minutes for average to heavy soil.

Once the oven has completely cooled, remove ash with a damp cloth. Do not wipe down any inside surfaces until the oven has completely cooled down. Applying a cool damp cloth to the inner door glass before it has cooled completely could result in the glass breaking.

The oven light will not work during the Self-Cleaning cycle.

On combination oven models, the upper oven will not work during the Self-Cleaning cycle.
