Whirlpool RB270PXK manual Special Tips, How It Works, Self-Cleaning Cycle-Twohour Sftting

SPECIAL TIPS

Keep the kitchen well ventilated during the cleaning cycle to help get rid of normal heat odors and smoke

2.Clean the oven before it gets heavily soilea. Cleaning a very soiled oven takes longer and results in more smoke than usual.

3.If the cleaning cycle doesn’t get the oven as clean as you expected, the cycle may not have been set long enough. Set the cleaning time longer for heavier soil.

4.Oven racks lose their shine, discolor and become harder to slide on their guides when they are left in the oven during the cleaning cycle. To make them slide easier, polish the edges of the racks and rack guides with a soapy steel-wool pad, rinse well, and wipe on a thin coat of salad oil

5.To stop the cleaning cycle after it has started:

l Turn the Stop Time Knob clockwise until the hand potnts to the righ? time of day.

l Turn the Upper Oven Selector und Upper Oven Temperature Control to OFF.

l When the oven cools. move the Lock Lever back to the ieft. DO NOT FORCE IT.Wait until it moves easily.

HOW IT WORKS

During

the

self-cleaning

cycle,

the oven

gets

much

hotter than

it does

for

baking

or

broiling...approximately

875”

F (468°C).

This

heat

breaks

up

grease

and

soil,

and

burns

it off.
