This oven features an automatic pyrolytic self-cleaning cycle. During this
cycle, the oven reaches elevated temperatures in order to burn off soil and
deposits. An integral smoke eliminator helps reduce odors associated with
the soil burn-off. A powder ash residue is left in the bottom of the oven
after completion of the self-clean cycle. The door latch is automatically
activated after selecting the self-clean setting. The latch ensures that the
door cannot be opened while the oven interior is at clean temperatures.
Before starting the Self-Clean cycle:
1. Remove the oven racks, and any other items/utensils from the oven. The
high heat generated during the cleaning cycle can discolor, warp, and
damage these items.
DO NOT
use foil or liners in the oven. During the
self-clean cycle foil can burn or melt and damage the oven surface.
2. Wipe off any large spills from the oven bottom and sides.
NEVER
use
oven cleaners inside a self-cleaning oven or on raised portions of the
door.
3. Some areas of the oven must be cleaned by hand before the cycle
begins. Soils in these areas will be baked on and very difficult to clean if
not removed first. Clean the door up to the gasket, the door frame, and
up to 2 inches inside the frame with detergent and hot water. Rinse
thoroughly and dry.
WARNING
DANGER
CAUTION
FOR YOUR SAFETY
DO NOT
touch the exterior portions of the oven after self-cleaning cycle
has begun, since some parts become extremely hot to the touch! During
the first few times the self-cleaning feature is used, there may be some
odor and smoking from the curing of the binder in the high-density
insulation used in the oven. When the insulation is thoroughly cured,
this odor will disappear. During subsequent self-cleaning cycles, you
may sense an odor characteristic of high temperatures. Keep the
kitchen well-vented during the self-cleaning cycle.

Cleaning and Maintenance
Brass Parts
All special ordered brass parts are coated with an epoxy coating.
Broiler Pan and Grid
Clean with detergent and hot water. For stubborn spots, use a soap-filled
steel wool pad.
Oven Racks
Clean with detergent and hot water. Stubborn spots can be scoured with a
soap-filled steel wool pad.
DO NOT
CLEAN THE OVEN RACKS OR RACK
SUPPORT USING THE SELF-CLEAN CYCLE. They could sustain damage due
to the extreme heat of the self-clean cycle.
Power Failure
No attempt should be made to operate the appliance during a power failure.
Make sure the oven control is in the “OFF” position.
Momentary power failure can occur unnoticed. The range is affected only
when the power is interrupted. When it comes back on, the range will
function properly without any adjustments. A “brown-out” may or may not
affect range operation, depending on how severe the power loss is. If the
range is in the self-clean cycle when the power failure occurs, wait until
power is restored and allow door to unlock automatically. Turn all controls off
and restart self-clean cycle again, according to instructions.
