The oven doors must be closed and all controls set correctly for the cycle to work properly.
How to Delay the Start of Cleaning
Touch the SELF CLEAN HI/LO pad once
for a 5-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 5 hours is
recommended for a dirtier oven.
If a time other than 5 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.
After a Clean Cycle
You may notice some white ash in the oven.
Wipe it up with a damp cloth after the
oven cools.
If white spots remain, remove them with a
soap-filled steel wool pad and rinse thoroughly
with a vinegar and water mixture.
These deposits are usually a salt residue that
cannot be removed by the clean cycle.
If the oven is not clean after one clean cycle,
repeat the cycle.
Touch the DELAY START pad.
Using the number pads, enter the time of
day you want the clean cycle to start.
Touch the START pad.
The upper and lower oven doors lock
automatically. The display will show the start
time. It will not be possible to open the oven
doors until the temperature drops below the
lock temperature and LOCKED goes off in the
control display.
When LOCKED goes off, you will be able to
open the doors.
You cannot set the oven for cooking or
another self-clean cycle until the oven is cool
enough for the door to unlock.
While the oven is self-cleaning, you can
touch the CLOCK pad to display the time of
day. To return to the clean countdown, touch
the SELF CLEAN HI/LO pad.
If the racks become hard to slide, apply a
small amount of cooking oil to a paper towel
and wipe the edges of the oven racks with
the paper towel.
