ARE & CLEANING
1 SELF-CLEAN OVEN 1
I
I
The self-clean cycle uses above normal cooking
temperatures to automatically clean the entire
oven interior. While this occurs, a device in the
oven vent helps consume normal amounts of
smoke. The oven is vented through an opening
under the control panel.
NOTE Both ovens cannot be self7eaned at the
same time in double wall oven models.
It is normal for flare-ups, smoking or flaming to
occur during cleaning if the oven is heavily
soiled.
It is better to clean the oven regularly rather
than to wait until there is a heavy build-up ofsoil
in the oven.
During the cleaning process, the kitchen should
be well ventilated to help eliminate normal
odors associated with cleaning.
Do not use commercial oven cleaners on the
self-clean oven finish or around any part of the
oven as they will damage the finish or parts.
BEFORE SELF-CLEANING
Remove broiler pan, all pans and the oven racks
from the oven. The oven racks will discolor
and may not slide easily after a self-clean
cycle.
Clean oven frame, door frame (area outside
the door gasket) and around the opening in the
door gasket with a non-abrasive cleaning agent
such as Bon Ami* or detergent and water.
These areas are not exposed to cleaning tem-
peratures and should be cleaned to prevent soil
from baking on during the clean cycle.
To prevent dam-
age, do not clean
or rub the gasket
around the oven
door. The gasket is
designed to seal in
heat during the clean cycle.
Wipe up excess grease or spillovers from the
oven bottom to prevent excessive smoking,
flare-ups or flaming during the clean cycle. For
ease of cleaning, the heating element can be
lifted slightly (I to I - I12 inches).
Wipe up sugary spillovers and acidic spillovers
such as lemon juice, tomato sauce or milk-
based sauces. Porcelain enamel is acid resis-
tant, not acid proof. The porcelain finish
may discolor if acidic spills are not wiped
up prior to a self-clean cycle.

also appear in the display.
Press the appropriate number pads to enter
the stop time. A stop time can only be
accepted for later in the day.

time would be “I 2:OO”. The display will
show:
soil remains, it indicates that the clean cycle was
not long enough. The soil will be removed
during the next clean cycle.
If the oven racks were left in the oven and do
not slide smoothly after a clean cycle, wipe
racks and embossed rack supports with a small
amount of vegetable oil to restore ease of
movement.
A white discoloration may appear after cleaning
if acidic or sugary foods were not wiped up
before the clean cycle. This is normal and will
NOT affect performance.

the number pads I ,O,O”. Five seconds later
the display will briefly show the start time
and the indicator word DELAY.
After a brief time, the display will return to
the current time of day with the indicator
words DELAY TIMED CLEAN remaining in
the display.
When the oven begins to clean, the indica-
tor word ON and the cooling fan will come
on. The indicator word DELAY will go off.
