Setting Oven Controls
Self Clean (available in upper oven only)
The Self Clean key controls the self clean feature. If you are
planning to use the oven directly after a self clean cycle
remember to allow time for the oven to cool down and the oven
door to unlock. This normally takes about one hour. So a 3 hour
self clean cycle will actually take about 4 hours to complete.
It is recommend to use a 2 hour self clean cycle for light soils, a
3 hour cycle for average soils, and 4 hours for heaviest soils.
To avoid possible burns use care when opening
the oven door after the self cleaning cycle, stand to the side of
the oven when opening the door to allow hot air or steam to
escape. The oven bake and broil elements may appear to have
cool after they are been turned off. The elements may still be
hot enough to cause burns if touched before they have cooled
completely.
Do not force the oven door open during self clean or while the
door is locking. This can damage the automatic door locking
system. Use caution and avoid possible burns when opening the
door after the self cleaning cycle has completed. The oven may
still be very hot.
