Care and Cleaning
warning
•
Clean only the parts of the range listed in this
manual. Clean them only in the manner specified.
•
To avoid dangerous fumes or damage to your
range’s surfaces and accessories, use only the types
of cleaning solutions specified in this manual. Some
cleaners can produce noxious fumes if applied to a
hot surface.
•
Clean the cooktop with caution. To avoid burns,
make sure that all parts are cool before cleaning.
•
To prevent damage, do not use abrasive or
corrosive cleaners or applicators such as steel wool
or scouring pads, on any part of the range unless
instructed to do so. Use only a sponge, soft cloth,
fibrous or plastic brush or nylon cleaning pad for
cleaning the surfaces of your range.
•
Do not use a steam cleaner to clean the range.
Steam could penetrate the electrical components
and cause a short circuit.
•
Do not try to remove heavy spills with a sharp
object such as a knife or metal spatula. Sharp
objects may scratch your range’s surfaces.
•
Always wipe up excess grease and other food spills
with a damp cloth prior to using the self clean
cycle. Doing so will minimize smoke and increase
efficiency. See the proper cleaning instructions on
this page.
•
Do not touch the outside surfaces of the oven during
the self clean cycle. They will be hot.
•
The racks, the convection filter, the meat probe or
any other items left in the oven during self cleaning
will become damaged or damage the oven.
•
Use caution when cleaning the door gasket. Rubbing
or displacing it may damage the tight door seal
required for proper cooking and self cleaning.
•
During self cleaning, do not try to force the door
open after it is locked to prevent damage.
•
Ensure that the anti-tip bracket is engaged after the
range is moved out for cleaning. Use a flashlight
to look underneath the range and verify that the
anti-tip bracket covers the rear leg when the range
is moved back into place.
Your Oven’s Self Clean Feature
About the Self Clean Cycle
•
The oven will run better and produce better baked
goods when it is clean. During self cleaning, the oven
is heated to very high temperatures which burn off
any deposits on the surfaces of the oven. Self cleaning
eliminates the need for manual scrubbing of interior
surfaces. The self clean process takes about three
hours.
•
It is normal for the oven to emit smoke during the
first few self clean cycles. It is also normal for the
oven to emit popping sounds during self cleaning.
These sounds are caused by the expansion and con-
traction of metal surfaces when the oven heats up and
cools down.
•
Self clean mode will not function if the meat probe is
connected.
How to Use the Self Clean Feature
1. Before self cleaning the oven, remove the racks, the
convection filter, all cookware (pots, pans, forks, etc.),
the meat probe, foil and any other loose objects from
the oven chamber. See page 25 for instructions on
how to remove and clean the filter.
2. Clean soil from the porcelain surfaces of the door
outside of the door gasket. Rinse surfaces well with
a solution of vinegar and water, then wipe dry. Heav-
ily soiled areas may be cleaned with a non-scratching
scouring pad.
3. Clean the door gasket by dabbing it with a solution of
water and mild soap.
4. Turn on kitchen fans or vents to help remove odors
during the self clean cycle.
5. Make sure the oven door is shut.
6. Press the
SELF CLEAN
key, then press
START
.
The control panel automatically locks the oven door
during self cleaning. The latch prevents the door from
being opened since the high interior oven temperatures
can easily cause injury. If the door is not shut, an error
message will appear on the display. To correct the prob-
lem, press
CANCEL
·
SECURE
and wait approximately one
minute, then close the door. When the door is properly
closed, start the self clean process again.
The display shows the self clean cycle status:
•
The clean symbol indicates that self clean is in
process.
•
The lock symbol indicates that the door is
latched.
•
“
ON
” indicates that the heating elements are on.
If you want to stop the self clean cycle, press the
CANCEL
·
SECURE
key. The oven door will remain locked
until it is safe enough to open. The lock symbol will disap-
pear from the display when the door lock is released. You
will still need to exercise caution when the door lock is
released because the inside of the oven may still be hot.
