Area Outside Door Seal
Your new oven features pyrolytic self-cleaning. When set into the CLEAN
mode, the oven reaches a high temperature that burns off the food soil.
On the double oven (CT230 or CT227N), only one oven can be cleaned at
a time. If both ovens are set for CLEAN, neither oven will clean and there may
be an error code. While self-cleaning one oven, the other oven is
inoperative.
During the CLEAN cycle, the CLOCK•TIMER window shows the time
remaining for self-cleaning.
The Minute TIMER may be used independently of the oven during the CLEAN
cycle. Be sure to press •STOP button only once when the Minute TIMER
reaches zero; otherwise, the CLEAN cycle will be cancelled.
It is common to see smoke and/or flames during the CLEAN cycle,
depending on the content and amount of soil remaining in the oven. If a flame
persists, turn off the oven and allow it to cool before opening the door to wipe
up the excessive food soil.
SELF-CLEANING THE OVEN

CAUTION:
SELF-CLEANING
LATCH MECHANISM
When the word LOCK is
blinking in the Cook Mode/
Oven Selector window, DO
NOT try to open or close the
door. The blinking word
LOCK indicates the door
latch is moving. Attempting
to open or close the door
when the LOCK light is blink-
ing will cause an error code
that requires the control to
be turned off and reset. It
also could cause damage to
the porcelain or the latch.
• Set the correct time of day.
• Remove any utensils from the oven.
• Remove oven racks, if desired. If the racks are left in the oven during the
clean cycle, they will lose their shiny finish and change to multicolored
finish. This color change is caused by the intense heat in the oven during
the self-clean cycle, see page 27.
• Wipe out puddles of grease and any loose soil that can be easily re-
moved with a paper towel. Wipe underside of heat deflector.
• Remove any soil that is outside the door seal area. This appliance is
designed to clean the oven interior and that portion of the door that is
inside the oven. The outer edges of the door and the oven cavity (shaded
area) are not in the cleaning zone. Wipe this area clean BEFORE SETTING
THE OVEN TO SELF-CLEAN.
