Do not use commercial oven
cleaners or oven protectors in or
near the self-cleaning oven. A
combination of any of these
products plus the high clean cycle
temperatures may damage the
porcelain finish of the oven.

Important
The oven door must be closed and
latched and all controls must be set
correctly for the clean cycle to
work properly.

How to 

Set Oven for

Cleaning

Step 1: Follow steps at left to
prepare the oven for cleaning.

Step 2: Close the oven door and
slide latch handle to the right as far
as it will go.

Step 3: Touch CLEAN pad.

Step 4: Touch INCREASE or
DECREASE pad.

Step 5: Press INCREASE or
DECREASE pad until desired

Clean Time is displayed.

Clean Time is normally 3 hours.
You can change the Clean Time to
anywhere between 2 and 4 hours,
depending on how dirty the oven is.

The self-clean cycle will
automatically begin within a few
seconds and the word “ON” will
appear on the display. When the
oven heats to a high temperature,
the word “LOCK” will be
displayed and, a short time later,
the door latch handle will be
locked in position. It will not be
possible to open the oven door
until the temperature drops below
the lock temperature.

The oven will smoke the first time
you use the self-clean cycle even
though you have wiped up any
excessive soil. This is normal and
should stop in about 10 minutes.
To help control the smoke, turn on
the exhaust fan over the range
when you use the self-clean cycle
the first time.

After a Clean Cycle

When the clean cycle is finished, the
word “CLEAN” will 

 out in the

display and the oven will begin to
cool. When the oven temperature
has fallen below the locking
temperature (about 20-30 minutes
after the word “CLEAN” goes out
at the end of the clean cycle), the
word “LOCK” goes out and the
door can be opened.

Step 6: When the LOCK light is
off, slide latch handle to the left as
far as it will go and open the door.

Never force the latch handle. Wait
until the word “LOCK” goes out
in the display. Forcing the latch
handle may damage the door lock.

After a clean cycle, you may notice

some white ash in the oven. Just
wipe it up with a damp cloth.

If white spots remain, remove
them with a soap-filled steel wool

pad. Be sure to rinse thoroughly
with a vinegar and water mixture.
These deposits are usually a salt
residue that cannot be removed
by the clean cycle.

If the oven is not clean after
one clean cycle, the cycle may
be repeated.
