3.  Wipe up excess grease and other food 

spills with a damp cloth. This will minimize 

smoke and increase the efficiency of the 

Self-Clean cycle.

4.  Turn on kitchen fans or vents to help 

remove odors during the Self-Clean cycle.

Follow these steps to Self-Clean the oven:

1.  Complete all steps listed above for 

preparing the oven for Self-Cleaning.

2.  Close the oven door completely.

3.  Press the “SELF-CLEAN” touch pad. The 

oven will beep once, “CLEAN” will flash, 

and “– –:– –” will be displayed.

4.  Press the “TIME•TEMP” “+” pad and 

the default time of “2:00” hours will be 

displayed.

5.  Increase the self-clean time up to 4 hours 

(depending upon the amount of oven soil) 

by holding the “TIME•TEMP” “+” pad.

6.  To delay the self-clean start to a more 

convenient time, press the “STOP TIME” 

touch pad. Then, press the “TIME•TEMP” 

“+”  pad to set the time of day for the 

cycle to be complete. “DELAY TIMED” will 

appear in the clock display. The cycle can 

be delayed up to 11 hours and 50 minutes.

7.  Approximately 30 to 60 seconds after 

selecting Self-Clean, the automatic door 

latch will lock the door. “LOCK” and “ON” 

will appear in the clock display. The oven 

will begin heating. The “ON” indicator will 

cycle on and off with the burner.

NOTE: 

 If Delay Timed mode has been set, the 

“ON” display and the oven heat will not 

turn on until the programmed time has been 

reached.

IMPORTANT: 

If the door is not closed completely, the 

automatic door latch will not be able to 

lock the door when the Self-Clean mode 

is selected. In this case, “door” will flash 

in the clock display. If this occurs, press 

the “CANCEL•SECURE” pad and wait 

approximately 1 minute. Repeat the Self-

Clean steps from the beginning, being 

certain to close the door completely. Do 

not try to force the door open after it is 

locked, as the automatic latch can be 

damaged. If you need to unlock the door, 

turn off the Self-Clean cycle by pressing the 

“CANCEL•SECURE” pad. After approximately 

1 minute, “LOCK” will disappear from the 

clock display, and the door will unlock.  

The door will remain locked until the oven 

temperature falls below 390˚F.  Do not  select 

any cooking function until the oven door is 

unlocked.

8.  About 50 to 60 minutes will be required 

for the oven to reach the Self-Clean 

temperature. 

9.  The Self-Clean cycle can be stopped at 

any time by pressing “CANCEL•SECURE.” 

Adjusting the Oven Temperature

10.  After completion of the Self-Clean cycle, 

the oven will stop heating and the “ON” 

and “CLEAN” indicators will disappear 

from the clock display. Press the 

“CANCEL•SECURE” pad.

11.  After the interior oven temperature falls 

below 390˚F, the door latch will release 

and “LOCK” will disappear from the clock 

display. The door can now be opened.

12.  Open the door. After ensuring that the 

oven has cooled sufficiently to be safe, use 

a damp cloth or sponge to wipe out the 

powder residue found in the bottom of the 

oven. If white spots remain in the oven, 

remove them with a non-scratch scouring 

pad before using the oven again. These 

spots are normally salt that cannot be 

removed by a Self-Clean cycle.

13.  Re-install the oven racks and convection 

fan filter before cooking in the oven.

IMPORTANT:

With the oven at room temperature, if the 

Self-

Clean mode is accidentally selected and the 

oven enters Self-Clean mode (indicated by 

“LOCK” and “ON” in the clock display), the 

user must cancel out of this mode before 

attempting to select a different mode. To 

cancel, press the “CANCEL•SECURE” pad. 

Wait at least 60 seconds before attempting 

to select another mode. This allows the 

door latch time to unlock.  The user may 

find the temperature in their new oven to 

be different from that of their previously-

owned appliance. Familiarity with the old 

appliance sometimes makes it difficult to get 

used to a new oven. If you feel that the oven 

temperature is consistently high or low, the 

temperature of the new oven can be adjusted. 

The adjustment needs to be done only once.

SELF-CLEANING TIPS

1.  If any soil remains in the oven after 

completion of a Self-Clean cycle, repeat 

the cycle if desired. Increase the cleaning 

time during future cycles.

2.  Clean the oven regularly to prevent 

excessive soil build-up. This will increase 

the efficiency of the Self-Clean cycle and 

reduce the amount of smoke and odors 

generated.

3.  Self-Clean in the cooler evening hours after 

cooking is complete and when electricity 

rates are lower.

4.  In the 48 inch model Ranges, if one oven is 

in the Self-Clean mode the second oven is 

inoperable.

The oven temperature may be adjusted 

(calibrated) by following these steps:

1.  Press “BAKE” selector pad.

2.  Press the “TIME•TEMP” “+” pad to set a 

temperature of 500˚F or higher.

3.  Press and hold the “BAKE” selector 

pad. After approximately 5 seconds the 

temperature display is replaced by “00”. 

The “BAKE” pad can now be released. The 

calibration mode has been accessed.

4.  Press the “TIME•TEMP” “+“ or “–” pad to 

set the amount of temperature adjustment. 

The temperature can be changed a 

maximum of 35˚F higher or lower. Set 

the adjustment to positive (+) numbers 

to increase the oven temperature; set 

the adjustment to negative (–) numbers 

to reduce the oven temperature. 

Temperatures can be adjusted in 

increments of 5˚F.

5.  After setting the desired temperature 

adjustment, press the “CANCEL•SECURE” 

pad to exit the calibration mode and to 

reset the clock display.

Replacing the Oven Lights

Your new range has halogen oven lights to 

enhance the view into the oven. The light 

assembly consists of a removable lens cover 

and 10-watt 120VAC halogen bulb, as well as 

a light fixture housing. Light bulb replacement 

is considered to be a homeowner maintenance 

operation.

WARNINGS:

To prevent electrical shock and/or personal 

injury:

1.  Make certain that the oven and light 

bulb are cool and that power to the oven 

has been turned off before replacing the 

light bulb.

2.  Always ensure that the lens cover is in 

place when using the oven. The lens 

cover protects the bulb from breakage 

caused by high oven temperatures or 

mechanical shock.

NOTES:

1.  If “CANCEL•SECURE” is not pressed 

after setting the adjustment, the clock 

display will automatically reset in 6 

seconds.

2.  The amount of temperature adjustment 

may be changed again by repeating 

the calibration procedure. The oven 

will only retain the amount of the most 

recent temperature adjustment.

3.  The temperature adjustment is not 

affected by an electrical power failure.

4.  The temperature adjustment only affects 

Bake and Convection modes. Broil 

and Self-Clean temperatures cannot be 

adjusted.
