are not in the cleaning zone. Wipe this area clean
before starting the self‐cleaning cycle.
Remove all utensils and racks.
Make sure the light bulbs and glass covers are in
place.
Turn on the ventilator hood above the range and
leave it on until the self‐clean cycle is completed
(red indicator light turning off).

Door Lock
When the CLEAN cycle starts, the automatic door
lock cycle begins. Check the door to confirm that
it is locked. You can stop the self‐cleaning cycle
by turning the function selector to the OFF posi‐
tion. The CLEANING light will turn off only after
the oven has cooled below 500°260°C and the
automatic door lock has completed its cycle to
the open position.
NOTE: MAKE SURE THAT THE OVEN DOOR IS
LOCKED AT THE BEGINNING OF THE SELF‐
CLEANING CYCLE.
To Set/Start Self‐Clean cycle
1. Check that the oven cavity is completely empty
and the oven door correctly closed.
2. Select CLEAN fu on oven function selector.
3. Set temperature selector to CLEAN.
After these 3 steps the cooling fans will activate,
the oven door will lock automatically after 60
seconds and both the pre‐heating and clean light
indicators will turn on.
As soon as clean light turns on check to ensure
that the oven door is correctly locked.
At the End of the Self‐Clean cycle
The self‐cleaning cycle lasts approximately 2‐2 ¼
hours; 30‐40 minutes for pre‐heating the oven
(pre‐heating and clean light both on), 60 minutes
for actual cleaning (heating and clean light both
on), 30‐35 minutes for cool‐down (only clean
light on).
When the CLEAN light is turned off the oven door
is unlocked. This will happen when the oven
temperature drops below 460‐500°F/240‐260°C
about.
At the end of the cycle turn both the oven mode
selectors and the temperature to the OFF
position.
Cleaning Hints
1 . The porcelain enamel finish is acid resistant,
but not acid proof. Acidic food, such as citrus
juices, tomatoes, rhubarb, vinegar, alcohol or
milk, should be wiped off and not allowed to
bake onto the porcelain during the next use.
2 . Remove the oven racks.
3 . The heating elements in the oven do not
require cleaning; the elements burn
themselves clean when the oven is in use.
Elements are permanently connected. It is
not necessary to clean the broiler shield
above the broil element.
CAUTION
The interior of the oven will still be at baking
temperatures when the automatic lock cycles to
its open position and the oven door can be
opened.
