Before a Clean Cycle
We recommend venting your kitchen with an
open window or using a ventilation fan or hood
during the first self-clean cycle.
Remove any broiler pan, broiler grid, probe, all
cookware and any foil from the oven.
WARNING
FIRE HAZARD:
Wipe grease and heavy soil from the oven
bottom before self-cleaning. Failure to do so
may result in an oven fire.
Note: Porcelain-coated oven racks may remain
in the oven during the self-cleaning cycle
without being damaged. The shiny, silver-colored
oven racks may be cleaned in the self-cleaning
oven. However, they will darken in color, loose
their luster and become hard to slide.
Soil on the front frame of the range and
outside the gasket on the door will need to be
cleaned by hand. Clean these areas with hot
water, soap-filled steel-wool pads, or cleansers
such as Soft Scrub (R). Rinse well with clean
water and dry.
Do not use abrasives or oven cleaners. Clean
the top, sides and outside of the oven door
with soap and water.
Do not clean the gasket. The fiberglass
material of the oven door gasket cannot
withstand abrasion. It is essential for the gasket
to remain intact. If you notice it becoming worn
or frayed, replace it.
How to Set the Oven for Cleaning
Press the Self Clean Std/Low pad once for
a 4-hour clean time or twice for a 3-hour
clean time.
A 3-hour self-clean time is recommended
for use when cleaning small, contained
spills. A self-clean time of 4 hours or longer
is recommended for a dirtier oven.
If a time other than 4 hours or
3 hours is needed, use the number pads
and enter the desired clean time.
You can change the clean time to any time
between 3 hours and 5 hours, depending on
how dirty your oven is.
Press the Start pad.
Make sure the oven light bulb cover is in place
and the oven light is off.
Wipe up sugary spillovers and acidic spillovers
such as lemon juice, tomato sauce, or milk
based sauces. Porcelain enamel is acid
resistant, not acid proof. The procelain finish
may discolor if acidic or sugary spills are not
wiped up prior to a self-cleancycle.
IMPORTANT: The health of some birds is
extremely sensitive to the fumes given off
during the self-cleaning cycle of any oven.
Move birds to another well-ventilated room.
■ On double oven models, you can set a clean
cycle in both ovens at the same time. The
last oven set will automatically delay its start
until the end of the first oven's clean cycle.
■
On 27" double oven models, both ovens lock
when one is set to Clean. Both will unlock
when all clean cycles have completed
■ On 30" double oven models, you can use
timed baking in one oven and self-clean the
other at the same time.
CAUTION:
Never place cooking
utensils or any other items on the oven floor.
There is a heating element beneath the oven
floor. Placing items on the oven floor may cause
the oven to overheat, resulting in damage to the
oven and risk of damage or fire to cabinets.
The door locks automatically. The display
will show the clean time remaining. It will not
be possible to open the oven door until the
temperature drops below the lock temperature
and the LOCKED light goes off.
When the LOCKED light goes off, you will be
able to open the door.
■ The words LOCKED will flash and the oven
control will signal if you set the clean cycle
and forget to close the oven door.
■
To stop a clean cycle, press the Clear/
Off pad. When the LOCKED light goes off
indicating the oven has cooled below the
locking temperature, you will be able to open
the door.
