The oven door must be closed and all controls must be set correctly for the cycle to work properly.
How to Delay the Start of Cleaning
Press the
Self Clean
pad once for a
4-hour clean time or twice for a 3-hour
clean time .
A 3-hour self-clean time is recommended
for use when cleaning small, contained
spills . A self-clean time of 4 hours or
longer is recommended for a dirtier oven .
If a time other than 4 hours or 3 hours is
needed, use the number pads (on some
models) or the
Hour
and
Min +
or
–
pads
(on some models) and enter the desired
clean time .
You can change the clean time to any time
between 3 hours and 5 hours, depending on
how dirty your oven is .
Press the
Delay Start
pad .
Using the number pads (on some models)
or the
Hour
and
Min +
or
–
pads (on
some models), enter the time of day you
want the clean cycle to start .
Press 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
light goes off .
When the
LOCKED
light goes off, you will be
able to open the door .
NOTE: On models with press pad controls for
both ovens, you can set a delay clean in both
ovens at the same time. The second oven set
will automatically delay the start of cleaning
until the end of the first oven’s clean cycle.
To recall the start time of the second oven set,
press the
Delay Start pad on the controls for
the second oven.
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 .
■
If the racks become hard to slide, wipe the
rack supports with cooking oil .
