How the Cycle Works
IMPORTANT: The heating and cooling of porcelain on steel in the
oven may result in discoloring, loss of gloss, hairline cracks and
popping sounds.
The Self-Cleaning cycle uses very high temperatures, burning soil
to a powdery ash.
The oven is preset for a 3
hour 30 minute clean cycle, however
the time can be changed. Suggested clean times are 2 hours
30 minutes for light soil and between 3
hours 30 minutes and
4 hours 30 minutes for average to heavy soil.
Once the oven has completely cooled, remove ash with a damp
cloth. To avoid breaking the glass, do not apply a cool damp
cloth to the inner door glass before it has completely cooled.
The oven lights will not work during the Self-Cleaning cycle.
On double oven models, only one oven can self-clean at a time. If
one oven is self-cleaning, the other oven cannot be set or turned
on.
To Self-Clean:

it will not lock and the cycle will not begin.

The cavity symbol will flash indicating which oven was
chosen. The upper cavity symbol is the upper oven; the lower
cavity symbol is the lower oven.

3. Press START.
The oven door will automatically lock and “DOOR LOCKED,”
the start time and stop time will appear on the oven display.
The door will not unlock until the oven cools.
When the cycle is complete and the oven is cool, “self clean
