OWN
(Normal Cleaning Time: 3 hours)
Before a Clean Cycle
Quick Reminder:
1. Prepare the oven for cleaning.
2. Close the oven door.
3. Press the CLEAN pad.
4. Press the INCREASE or DECREASE pad
to set clean time.
1. Remove the broiler pan, broiler grid, all cookware
and any aluminum foil from the oven— they cannot
withstand the high cleaning temperatures. (Oven
shelves may be left in oven. NOTE: Shelves will
discolor after the self-clean cycle.)
2. Wipe up heavy soil on the oven bottom. If you
use soap, rinse thoroughly before self-cleaning to
prevent staining.
A. Oven Front Frame
B. Openings in Door
C. Oven Door Gasket
D. Oven Light
E. Oven Vent Grille
3. Clean spatters or spills on 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 one inch 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. Also clean under the oven vent
grille (E) above the oven with soap and water.
Do not use abrasives or oven cleaners.
Make sure the oven light bulb cover (D) is in place.
Do not let water run down through openings (B)
in the top of the door. To
help
prevent water
from getting in these slots when cleaning, open
the door as far as it will go.
Do not rub or clean the door gasket
(C)—
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 have it replaced.
4. Close the door and make sure the oven light (D)
is off. Make sure the oven light bulb cover is in
place. Door latches automatically after the Clean
cycle is set.
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 the 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 temperatures may damage the porcelain
finish of the oven.
Important
The oven door must be closed and
dl
controls must
be set correctly for the clean cycle to work properly.
