During Self Clean
•
The Self Clean cycle uses extremely hot
temperatures to clean the oven cavity. While
running the Self Clean cycle, you may notice
smoking or an odor. This is normal, especially if the
oven is heavily soiled.
•
As the oven heats, you may hear sounds of metal
parts expanding and contracting. This is normal
and will not damage the oven.
•
Do not force the oven door open when the lock
is displayed. The oven door remains locked until
the oven temperature has cooled. Forcing the door
open will damage the door.
After the Self Clean Cycle
•
The oven door remains locked until the oven
temperature has cooled.
•
You may notice some white ash in the oven. Wipe
it off with a damp cloth or a soap-filled pad after the
oven cools. If the oven is not clean after one self-
clean cycle, repeat the cycle.
•
If oven racks were left in the oven and do not slide
smoothly after a self-clean cycle, wipe racks and
rack supports with a small amount of vegetable oil
to make them glide more easily.
•
Fine lines may appear in the porcelain because it
went through heating and cooling. This is normal
and will not affect performance.
NOTE
•
The Self Clean cycle cannot be started if the
Lockout feature is active.
•
Once the Self Clean cycle is set, the oven door
locks automatically. You will not be able to open
the oven door until the oven is cooled. The lock
releases automatically.
•
Once the door has been locked, the lock
indicator light stops flashing and remains on.
Allow about 15 seconds for the oven door lock
to activate.
•
If the clock is set for a 12-hour display (default)
the Delayed Self Clean can never be set to
start more than 12 hours in advance.
•
After the oven is turned off, the convection
fan keeps operating until the oven has cooled
down.
