The oven door must be closed and all controls set correctly for the cycle to work properly.
After a Clean Cycle
You cannot set the oven for cooking until
the oven is cool enough for the door to be
unlatched.
You may notice some white ash in the oven.
Wipe it up with a damp cloth after the
oven cools.
If white spots remain, remove them with a
soap-filled scouring pad and 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,
repeat the cycle.

to a paper towel and wipe the edges of the
oven shelves with the paper towel.

Tips
How to Delay the Start of Cleaning
You can set the oven control to delay-start the
oven, clean for a specific length of time and
then turn off automatically.
Make sure the clock shows the correct time
of day.
Follow the directions in the
Before a Clean
Cycle
section.
If your model has a latch, latch the door.
NOTE:
Never force the latch. If the oven is too
hot, you will not be able to slide the latch.
Allow the oven to cool.
Touch the
Self Clean
pad.
Touch the
+
or
–
pads to set the
Clean Time.
The Clean Time is preset for 4 hours and
20 minutes. You can change the Clean Time to
any time between 3 and 5 hours, depending
on the amount of soil in your oven. If a
different Clean Time is desired, touch the + or –
pads until the desired Clean Time is displayed.
Touch the
Start Time
pad.
Change the Start Time by touching the + or –
pads. The start time will appear in the display.
Touch the
Start/On
pad.
The oven control will signal if you set the
clean cycle and forget to close the oven door
or forget to latch the door on models with
a latch.
On models without a door latch, the door
locks automatically. The display will show the
start time. It will not be possible to open the
oven door until the temperature drops below
the lock temperature and the
Self Clean
light
goes off.
The self-clean cycle will automatically begin
at the time set.
While the oven is self-cleaning, you can touch
the
Clock
pad to display the time of day. To
return to the clean countdown, touch the
Self Clean
pad.
The oven shuts off automatically when the
clean cycle is complete, and 0:00 will flash
in the display.
When the
Self Clean
light is off, slide the
latch handle to the left as far as it will go
and open the door. If your range does
not have a latch, the door will unlock
automatically.
To Stop a Clean Cycle
Touch the
Clear/Off
pad.
When the
Self Clean
light goes off indicating
the oven has cooled below the locking
temperature, unlatch the door (on models
with a latch) and open the door.
