As soon as Self Clean becomes active, a motor driven
lock mechanism will begin locking the oven door
automatically, and door Loc will appear in the display
(See Fig. 1). DO NOT open the oven door when door
Loc is displayed (allow 15 seconds for the lock
mechanism to lock the oven).
Once the oven door is locked, CLn will appear in the
display indicating Self Clean has started (Fig. 2). During
the cycle check the amount of clean time remaining by
pressing the Self Clean keypad again.

When Self Clean is finished:
Use caution when opening the oven
door after self-cleaning. The oven may still be VERY
HOT and can cause burns. To avoid possible burns stand to
the side of the oven when opening the oven door to allow
hot air or steam to escape.
1. CLn message will turn off and Hot will appear in display
window (See Fig. 3).
2. Once the oven has cooled down (about 1 hour) and Hot
is no longer displayed the door OPn message will
appear (Fig. 4). When this message turns off the
oven door may be opened.
3. When the oven interior has completely cooled, wipe away any
residue or powdered ash with a damp cloth or paper towel.
Important notes:
The kitchen area should be well ventilated using an open
window, ventilation fan or exhaust hood during the first
self-clean cycle to help eliminate the normal odors
associated with the first self-clean cycle.
When the clean time finishes the oven door will remain
locked until the range has cooled sufficiently. In addition
to the programmed clean time, you must allow
about an additional hour for the oven to cool before
you will be able to open the oven door.
If Self Clean is interrupted by power failure or cancelled
before the oven was thoroughly cleaned, it may be
necessary to run a self-clean cycle again. If the oven
reached a high enough temperature when
interrupted you may need to allow up to 4 hours for
the oven to cool before Self Clean can be run again.
The Self Clean function will not operate whenever a radiant
surface element is ON or the Control Lock is active.

4. Press START to accept.
5. Press Self Clean keypad.
6. Press START.
If it becomes necessary to stop Self Clean when
active:
1. Press OFF.
2. If Self Clean has heated the oven to a high temperature,
allow enough time for the oven to cool and for the door
OPn message to appear (Fig. 4). When this message
turns OFF the oven door may be opened.
3. Restart Self Clean if needed.
Important notes:

mode, the Delay Self Clean can only be set to start up to
11 hours and 59 minutes in advance. To set a Delay Start
Self Clean to begin 12 or more hours (maximum is 23
hours and 59 minutes) in advance, be sure to set the
control for 24 hour display mode.
