Using the self-cleaning lower oven.
The oven door must be closed and all controls must be set correctly for the cycle to work properly.
How to Delay the Start of Cleaning
Press the Self Clean pad for a
4-hour clean time.
If a time other than 4 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.
A 3-hour self-clean time is recommended
for use when cleaning small, contained
spills. A self-clean time of 4 hours
or longer is recommended for a
dirtier oven.
Press the Delay Start pad.
Using the number pads, enter the
time of day you want the clean cycle
to start.
Press the Start pad.
The door locks automatically. The display
will show the start time. It will not be
possible to open the oven door until
the temperature drops below the lock
temperature and the LOCKED light
goes off.
When the LOCKED light goes off, you will
be able to open the door.
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.
You cannot set the oven for cooking
until the oven is cool enough for the
door to unlock.
While the oven is self-cleaning, you
can press the Clock pad to display
the time of day. To return to the clean
countdown, press the Self Clean pad.
If the racks become hard to slide, wipe
the rack supports with cooking oil.
