Oven Cleaning - Self Clean
Range is equipped with a standard self clean
feature. Self cleaning requires the use of the
clock timer. Read and follow the safety and pre-
cleaning instructions below. Then refer to
“Clock and Oven Operation” section for self
clean details and procedures.
Preparing Oven for Self Clean Cycle:
1. Remove cookware, oven racks and rack
supports from the oven (if racks and rack
supports are left in the oven, they will
become discoloured and rough after
cleaning, but it will not affect the protective
coating).
2. Remove all utensils and food from
cooktop.
3. Wipe up spills promptly to aoid excessive
smoke during the cleaning cycle. Specially
wipe up spills of sugar (i.e. pie fillings) and
other carbohydrates (ie. casseroles) which
became firmly attached to the surface and
sometimes damage the porcelain enamel
glaze as they are burned off.
4. Pre-clean areas not reached in the self
cleaning cycle: the frame around the oven
opening, the edge of the door outside the
gasket and the edge of the oven door inner
panel (areas shown shaded in figure 18).
5. Before commencing the self clean cycle,
use hot water and detergent or a paste of
baking soda and hot water on difficult
spots; rinse well with vinegar water to
remove all residue. This prevents this soil
from being baked on during the high heat
of the self cleaning cycle. Re-clean these
areas after the cleaning cycle is complete.
DO NOT under any circumstance use a
commercial oven cleaner, or surface
coating for ovens on a self clean oven.
This will damage the finish.
DO NOT clean the gasket.
DO NOT use surface elements while range
is cleaning.
