Setting Oven Controls
Self Clean
A self cleaning oven cleans with very high temperatures well
above normal cooking temperatures. The high temperature elim-
inates soils completely or reduces them to a fine powdered ash
you can wipe away afterwards with a damp cloth.
The Self Clean function allows you to set a cleaning time from 2
hours to 4 hours. A 3 hour cleaning time is recommended for
normal cleaning, 2 hours for light cleaning, and 4 hours for
heavy cleaning.
Before starting Self Clean:
Do not leave small children unattended near
the appliance. During the self cleaning cycle, the outside of the
oven can become very hot to touch and can cause burns.
Do not line the oven walls, racks, bottom, or
any other part of the oven with aluminum foil. Doing so will
destroy heat distribution, produce poor baking results, and
cause permanent damage to the oven interior. Aluminum foil will
melt to the interior of the oven.
The health of some birds is extremely sensitive
to the fumes given off during the self cleaning cycle of any
oven. Move birds to another well-ventilated room.
Do not force the door open while self clean is
active. This can damage the automatic door locking system. Use
caution when opening the oven door after self cleaning. The
oven may still be very hot and can cause burns. To avoid
possible burns stand to the side of the oven when opening the
oven door to allow hot air or steam to escape.
Important note:
Completely remove all oven racks and any accessories from
oven cavity to avoid damage to oven racks. If the oven racks
are not removed they may discolor.
•
Remove all items from the oven including bakeware, utensils
and any aluminum foil. Aluminum foil will not withstand
high temperatures from a self clean cycle and will melt.
•
Do not use oven cleaners or oven protective coatings in or
around any part of the oven interior.
•
Clean any soil from the oven frame, the door liner outside
the oven door gasket and the small area at the front center
of the oven bottom (See
Figure 37
). These areas heat suffi-
ciently to burn soil on. Clean using soap and water prior to
starting Self Clean.
•
Do not clean the oven door gasket (See
Figure 37
). The
woven material of the oven door gasket is essential for a
good seal. Care should be taken not to rub, damage, or
remove the gasket. Do not use any cleaning materials on the
oven door gasket. Doing so could cause damage to the
door gasket.
•
Remove any excessive build up caused by spills. Any spill on
the oven bottom should be wiped up and removed before
starting a self clean cycle. To clean, use hot, soapy water
and a cloth. Large spill residue can cause heavy smoke or
fire when subjected to high temperatures. Do not allow food
spills with a high sugar or acid content (such as milk,
tomatoes, sauerkraut, fruit juices, or pie filling) to remain on
the surface as they may leave a dull spot even after
cleaning.
•
This model comes with lubricated porcelain oven racks,
which can remain in the oven during the self-clean cycle.
Do not clean this vegetable oil lubrication off the racks. It is
important that the sides of the oven racks always have a
light coating of vegetable oil. To maintain optimal rack
performance, re-apply a thin layer of vegetable oil to the
sides of the rack after every self-clean cycle or when the
rack becomes difficult to slide.
To set Self Clean:
1.
Be sure the oven is empty, oven racks are removed, and
oven door is completely closed.
2. Press
Self Clean.
A 3 hour clean time will appear in the
display. To choose a different clean time. Press Self Clean
and use the numeric keys to select any time between 2 and
4 hours. Once time is selected proceed to Step 3.
3. Press
to activate Self Clean.
As soon as Self Clean becomes active, a motor driven lock
mechanism will begin locking the oven door automatically, and
door Loc will appear in the display (See
Figure 38
). Do not open
the oven door when door Loc is displayed (allow 15 seconds for
the lock mechanism to lock the oven). Once the oven door has
locked, CLn will appear in the display indicating Self Clean has
started.
