Move the Lock Lever to the right -
the Clean position. This will start the
Self-Cleaning cycle. The Clean
Indicator Light goes on. If the door is
not completely closed or the lever is
not all the way to the right, the cycle
will not start.
The oven will turn on within the
next 30-40 seconds and will turn off
automatically at the end of the set
clean time.
When the oven temperature
exceeds normal baking tempera-
tures, the door can’t be opened and
the Lock Lever must not be moved.
After the Self-Cleaning cycle is
completed and the oven tempera-
ture has dropped below 500°F
(260X), the Clean Indicator Light
goes off and the Lock Lever can be
moved back to the COOK position.
Do not force it. Wait until it moves
easily. Turn the Oven Selector and
Oven Temperature Control to OFF.
After the oven is cool, wipe off any
residue or ash with a damp cloth. If
needed, touch up spots with a soapy
steel wool pad.
Special tips
l
Keep the kitchen well-ventilated
during the Self-Cleaning cycle to help
get rid of heat, odors and smoke.
l
Clean the oven before it gets heavily
soiled. Cleaning a very soiled oven
takes longer and results in more
smoke than usual.
l
If the Self-Cleaning cycle doesn’t get
the oven as clean as you expected,
the cycle may not have been set long
enough or you may not have prepared
the oven properly. Set the Self-
Cleaning cycle longer the next time
and hand clean areas noted on
page 22.
