Troubleshooting T

ips

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.
Soil on the front frame of the oven 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 oven.

Move birds to another well-ventilated room.

Touch the

SELF CLEAN

pad.

Touch the

HOUR

and

MIN +

pads

to enter the desired clean time, if a

time other than 4 hours is needed.

Clean cycle time is normally 4 hours.

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 DOOR

light goes off.

When the

LOCKED DOOR

light is off, open

the door.
The oven shuts off automatically when the

clean cycle is complete.

NOTES:

■

The words

LOCK DOOR

will flash and the

oven control will signal if you set the clean

cycle and forget to close the oven door.

■

To stop a clean cycle, touch the

CLEAR/OFF

pad. When the

LOCKED DOOR

light goes off indicating the oven has

cooled below the locking temperature,

open the door.

Using the self-cleaning oven.
