Using the self-cleaning oven.

The oven door must be closed and all controls set correctly for the cycle to work properly.
Before a Clean Cycle
We recommend venting your kitchen
with an open window or using a
ventilation fan or hood during the
first self-clean cycle.
Remove broiler pan, broiler grid, all
cookware and any aluminum foil from
the oven.
NOTE:
If your oven is equipped with gray
porcelain-coated oven racks, they may be
left in the oven during 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 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.
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.
How to Set the Oven for Cleaning
WARNING:
The surface
units are automatically disabled during
the self-clean cycle. Make sure that all
surface unit controls are turned off at all
times during the self-clean cycle. Any
surface unit that is set to an on position,
while the self-clean cycle is operating, will
automatically come on after the self-clean
cycle is finished, and could result in an
on, unattended surface unit. Wait until
the self-clean cycle is finished to set and
use the surface units.
Touch the
CLEAN
pad.
Using the number pads, enter the
desired clean time, if a time other
than 4 hours, 20 minutes is needed.
Clean cycle time is normally 4 hours, 30
minutes. 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
light
goes off.
When the
LOCKED
light goes off, you will
be able to open the door.
■
The words
LOCK DOOR
will flash if you
set the clean cycle and forget to close
the oven door.
■
To stop a clean cycle, touch the
OFF
pad. When the
