Consumer Support
For the first self-clean cycle, we recommend
venting your kitchen with an open window
or using a ventilation fan or hood.
Remove the shelves, broiler pan, broiler
grid, all cookware and any aluminum foil
from the oven.
The oven shelves can be self-cleaned,
but they will darken, lose their luster
and become hard to slide.
Do not use commercial oven cleaners or
oven protectors in or near the self-cleaning
oven. A combination of any of these
products plus the high clean cycle
temperatures may damage the porcelain
finish of the oven.
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 steel-wool 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.
CAUTION:
The grates and drip pans
(on some models) should never be cleaned in
the self-cleaning oven.
Do not use commercial oven cleaners or oven
protectors in or near the self-cleaning oven.
A combination of any of these products
plus the high clean cycle temperatures may
damage the porcelain finish of the oven.
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.
Never force the latch handle. Forcing the handle will damage the door lock mechanism.
The oven door must be closed and all controls set correctly for the cycle to work properly.
Using the self-cleaning oven.
(on some models)
Before a Clean Cycle
Wipe up heavy soil on the oven
bottom.
How to Set the Oven for Cleaning
Follow the directions in the
Before a Clean
Cycle
section.
Latch the door.
NOTE:
Never force the latch. If the oven is
too hot, you will not be able to slide the
latch. Allow the oven to cool.
Touch the
SELF CLEAN
pad.
Touch the
+
or
–
pads until the
desired Clean Time is displayed.
The Clean Time is normally 4 hours and 20 minutes.
You can change the Clean Time to any time between
3 and 5 hours, depending on the amount of soil in
your oven.
Touch the
START/ON
pad.
The self-clean cycle will automatically
begin after
CLEAN
is displayed and the time
countdown appears in the display.
While the oven is self-cleaning, you can
touch the
CLOCK
pad to display the time
of day. To return to the clean countdown,
touch the
SELF CLEAN
pad.
The oven shuts off automatically when the
clean cycle is complete, and 0:00 will flash
in the display.
Slide the latch handle to the left as far
as it will go and open the door.
