The oven door must be closed and all controls set correctly for the cycle to work properly.

How to Delay the Start of Cleaning

Make sure the clock shows the correct time
of day.

Touch the 

Self Clean

pad.

Using the number pads, enter the
desired clean time.

Touch the 

Delay Start

pad. The earliest

start time you can set will appear in the
display.

Using the number pads, enter the time
of day you want the clean cycle 
to start.

Touch the 

Start

pad.

The door locks automatically. The display will
show the start time. 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.

After a Clean Cycle

You may notice some white ash in the oven.
Wipe it up with a damp cloth after the 
oven cools. 

If white spots remain, remove them with a 
soap-filled scouring pad and rinse thoroughly 
with a vinegar and water mixture. 

These deposits are usually a salt residue 
that cannot be removed by the clean cycle.

If the oven is not clean after one clean cycle,
repeat the cycle. 

■

You cannot set the oven for cooking until
the oven is cool enough for the door to
unlock.

■ 

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 

Cooking Time

pad.

■

If the shelves become hard to slide, apply a
small amount of vegetable oil or cooking oil
to a paper towel and wipe the edges of the
oven shelves with the paper towel.
