Oven Cleaning
(continued)
To Start the Self-Clean Cycle
* We recommend a 2 hour self-clean cycle for light soils , a 3 hour cycle for
average soils , and a 4 hour cycle for heavy soils (to assure satisfactory results).
To Set the Controls for the Self-Cleaning Cycle To Start Immediately and
Shut Off Automatically:
1. Be sure the clock shows the correct time of day.
2. Push . "CLN TIME" will appear in the display.
3. Push and hold or until "3 HR:00" appears in the display.
Set the cleaning time based on the amount of soil you have—light, medium
or heavy. * See above.
4. As soon as the controls are set, the motor driven lock will begin to close
automatically and the "LOCKED" indicator light will be displayed. (It takes
about 15 seconds for the lock to close.)
5. The "Clean" light will come on. The "Oven" light will come on and cycle with
the oven burner units.
Note: If the self-cleaning cycle is cancelled while at a high temperature, make
sure the word "LOCKED" is not in the display and the oven has cooled down for
at least 1 HOUR before trying to open the oven door.
To Set the Controls for the Self-Cleaning Cycle To Start at a Delayed Time
and Shut off Automatically:
1. Be sure the clock shows the correct time of day.
2. Push . "CLN TIME" will appear in the display.
3. Push and hold or until "3 HR:00" appears in the display.
Set the cleaning time based on the amount of soil you have—light, medium
or heavy. * See above.
4. Push STOP TIME . The time of day that the self-cleaning cycle ends
will appear in the display. The words "CLN STOP TIME" will glow in the
display.
5. Push and hold or until the time of day that you want the
cleaning to be completed appears in the display.
6. The control will calculate backward from the set stop time to determine
when the self-cleaning cycle should begin. The words "DELAY" and "CLN
STOP TIME" will glow in the display.
7. The self-cleaning cycle will come on automatically at the calculated time.
At that time, the word "DELAY" will go out and "ON" will appear.
When the Self-Clean Cycle is Completed
1. The time of day will appear in the display window and the word "LOCKED"
may remain in the display.
2. Once the oven has cooled down for 1 HOUR and the word "LOCKED" shown
in the display has gone out, then the oven door can be opened.
Use care when opening
the oven door after the self-cleaning
cycle. Stand to the side of the oven
when opening the door to allow hot air
or steam to escape.
DO NOT force the oven
door open. This can damage the
automatic door locking system. Use
caution when opening the door after
the self-cleaning cycle is completed.
The oven may still be VERY HOT.
