Operating the Self-Cleaning Oven
NOTE: Oven has controls for
upper oven and lower oven. Be
sure to set the correct control.
Pads on the left side of panel are
for the upper oven. Pads on the
right side of panel are for the
lower oven. The TIMER
ON/OFF, COOK TIME, and
STOP TIME pads can be used
for either oven.
Programmed Cleaning Time:
3 hours
Prepare the Oven Before
Setting the Controls
Step 1:
Remove the broiler pan, broiler
rack, all cookware and any
aluminum foil from the oven.
(Oven shelves may be left in the
oven. NOTE: Shelves will
discolor during the self-cleaning
cycle.)
Step 2:
Wipe up heavy soil on oven
bottom. If you use soap, rinse
thoroughly before self-cleaning
to prevent staining.

Step 3:
●
Clean spatters or soil on the oven
front frame (A), under the front
edge of the oven vent, the door
liner outside the door gasket and
the front edge of the oven cavity
(about 1“ into the oven). Use
detergent and hot water with a
soap-filled steel wool pad, then
rinse well with a vinegar and water
mixture. This will help prevent a
brown residue from forming when
the oven is heated. Buff these areas
with a dry cloth.
●
Clean top, sides and outside front
of oven door with soap and water.
Do not use abrasives or oven
cleaners.
Do not let water run down through
openings in the top of the door (B).
To help prevent water from getting
in these slots when cleaning, open
the door as far as it will go.
Clean the door gasket (C) using
a clean sponge to soak the soiled
area with hydrogen peroxide.
Repeated soaking may be needed
depending on the amount of soil.
Frequent cleaning will prevent
excessive soil buildup. Do not rub
the door gasket—the fiberglass
material of the gasket has an
extremely low resistance to
abrasion. An intact and well-fitting
oven door gasket is essential for
energy-efficient oven operation
and good baking results. If you
notice the gasket becoming worn,
frayed or damaged in any way or
if it has become displaced on the
door, you should replace it.
Make sure the oven light bulb
cover (D) is in place.

Step 4:
Close the oven door and make
sure the oven light is off.
Oven shelves may be cleaned in
the self-cleaning oven. However,
they will darken, lose their luster
and become hard to slide. Wipe the
shelf supports with cooking oil
after self-cleaning to make shelves
slide more easily.
Do not use commercial oven
cleaners or oven protectors in
or near the self-cleaning oven.
A combination of any of these
products plus the high clean-cycle
temperature may damage the
porcelain finish of the oven.
Important
The oven door must be closed
and all controls must be set
correctly for the clean cycle to
work properly. To help you
understand how the clean cycle
works, the stages of the cycle
are noted below.
1.
Close the oven door
completely.
2. Set the controls.
3. The words “SET TIME
CLEAN” and the selected
clean time from 2-4 hours is
displayed. The door locks
automatically, the oven begins
to heat.
