OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
USING THE SELF-CLEANING OVEN
For the first
self-clean cycle,
we recommend
venting your
kitchen with an
open window
or using a
ventilation fan
or hood.
Remove the
broiler pan, broiler grid, all cookware, probe and
any aluminum foil from the oven—they cannot
withstand the high cleaning temperatures.
NOTE: If your oven is equipped with nickel
oven shelves, remove them before you begin
the self-clean cycle.
Soil on the front frame of the range and outside
the gasket on the door will need to be cleaned
by hand. Clean these areas with hot water,
soap-filled scouring pads or cleansers such
as Soft Scrub
®
. Rinse well with clean water
and dry.
Do not clean the gasket. The fiberglass material
of the oven door gasket cannot withstand
abrasion. It is essential for the gasket to remain
intact. If you notice it becoming worn or frayed,
replace it.
Wipe up any heavy spillovers on the oven
bottom.
Make sure the oven light bulb cover is in place
and the oven light is off.
IMPORTANT: The health of some birds
is extremely sensitive to the fumes given
off during the self-cleaning cycle of any range.
Move birds to another well ventilated room.
NOTE: Use caution when opening the oven
after the self-clean cycle has ended. The oven
may still be hot.
Wipe up heavy soil on the
oven bottom.
BEFORE A CLEAN CYCLE
Touch the SELF CLEAN pad.
Using the number pads, enter the
desired clean time, if a time other
than 4 hours is needed.
Clean cycle time is normally 4
hours. You can change the clean
time to any time between 3 hours
and 5 hours, depending on how
dirty your oven is.
Touch the START pad.
The door locks automatically. The display will
show the clean time remaining. It will not be
possible to open the oven door until the
temperature drops below the lock temperature
and the
LOCKED DOOR light goes off.
The oven shuts of
f automatically when the clean
cycle is complete.
When the
LOCKED DOOR light is off, the
door will unlock automatically.
• The wor
ds
LOCK DOOR will flash and the
oven contr
ol will signal if you set the clean
cycle and forget to close the oven door.
• To stop a clean cycle, touch the CLEAR/OFF
pad. When the LOCKED DOOR light goes off
indicating the oven has cooled below the
locking temperature, open the door.
