Using the self-cleaning oven.
www.GEAppliances.com
The oven door must be closed and all controls must be set correctly for the cycle to work properly.
Before a Clean Cycle
The oven must be cool in order to set the self-
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 the broiler pan, broiler grid, all
cookware and any aluminum foil from
the oven.
The oven shelves can be self-cleaned, but
they will darken, lose their luster and
become hard to slide.
Do not use abrasives or oven cleaners.
Clean the top, sides and outside of the
oven door with soap and water.
Make sure the oven light bulb cover
(on some models) is in place and the
oven light is off.
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.
Wipe up heavy soil on the oven
bottom. (appearance may vary)
How to Set the Oven for Cleaning
Press the
SELF CLEAN
pad.
Using the
HOUR

a time other than 4 hours is needed.
Clean cycle time is normally 4 hours.
You can change the clean time to any
time between 3 hours and 5 hours,
depending on how dirty your oven is.
Press the

The door locks automatically. The display
will show the clean time remaining. It will
not be possible to open the oven door

When this
LOCKED

open the door.
■The words

in the clean cycle or while the oven is
cooling. For these models,
