The oven cycling light (below OVEN TEMP knob),
the CLEANING light and the OVEN ON light will
glow. indicating that the self-clean cycle has begun.
When the oven reaches a certain temperature, the
oven door will lock. The latch handle cannot be moved
until oven cleaning is complete and the oven cools
down. Oven door and window (on some models) get
hot during self-clean cycle. DO NOT TOUCH.
● The oven will smoke the first time you use the
self-clean cycle even though you have wiped up
any excessive soil. This is normal and should stop
in about 10 minutes. To help control the smoke, turn
on the exhaust fan over the range when you use the
self-clean cycle the first time.
