Cleaning and Maintaining Your Oven
Self-Cleaning
WARNING:
Do not leave the racks, the meat probe, pots, pans, utensils, trays, foil, or any other items
in the oven during self-cleaning. The convection filter must also be removed. Items left in the oven dur-
ing self-cleaning may be damaged.
WARNING:
The control panel automatically locks the oven door during self-cleaning. Do not try to force
the door open after it is locked. Damage to the door latch may result.
WARNING:
Do not touch the outside surfaces of the oven during the self-clean cycle. They will be hot.
WARNING:
Do not line the oven with aluminum foil or other materials. These items can melt or burn
during self-cleaning and cause permanent damage to the oven.
WARNING:
Take extreme caution when cleaning the door gasket. Rubbing, moving or in any way dam-
aging the door gasket may eliminate the required tight door seal. See page 54 for cleaning instructions.
IMPORTANT:
Always remove excess grease and soil from the oven interior and door prior to using the
self-clean cycle. See page 54 for proper cleaning instructions.
About the Self-clean cycle
The oven will run better and produce better baked goods if it is clean.
During self-cleaning, the oven is heated to very high temperatures which burns off any deposits on
the surfaces of the oven. Self-cleaning eliminates the need for manual scrubbing of interior surfaces.
You can set the length of time for self-cleaning based on the amount of soil. The 3 settings are light
(2 hours), medium (3 hours), and heavy (4 hours).
If you only use your oven to bake cookies occasionally, it may require only a light cleaning. If you use
your oven to broil or roast on a frequent basis, it may require heavy cleaning.
It is normal for the oven to emit smoke during the first few self-clean cycles.
It is normal for the oven to emit popping sounds during self-cleaning. These sounds are caused by
the expansion and contraction of metal surfaces when the oven heats up and cools down.
When you self-clean your oven, it will automatically activate the electric door latch. The latch pre-
vents the oven door from being opened while the interior oven temperatures can easily cause injury.
You may notice a powder ash residue in the bottom of the oven after self-cleaning. This is normal.
Sponge the residue up after the oven completely cools.
If you have a
double oven, the control panel will only allow one oven chamber to be self-cleaned at a
time due to the amount of power consumed. For the same reason, the oven will not allow you to
cook in one oven chamber while the other is being self-cleaned.
If you want to stop the self-clean cycle, press the
CANCEL/SECURE
key. Please keep in mind that
the oven door will remain locked until it is safe enough to open. You will still need to exercise caution
when the door lock is released because the inside of the oven will still be hot.
