Self-Cleaning Cycle
Self Clean Cycle
The
SELF CLEAN
pad controls the Self-Cleaning feature.
When used with a the Delay Start pad, a delayed Self-
Cleaning cycle may also be programmed. The Flex Clean
feature allows for any Self-Cleaning cycle time from 2
(2:00) to 4 hours (4:00). You may also choose the clean time
in 1 minute increments (for example 2 hours and 50 minutes)
by pressing the corresponding number keypads.
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 a 4 hour cycle for
heavy
soils
(to assure satisfactory results).
NOTE:
The kitchen area should be well ventilated using an
open window, ventilation fan or exhaust hood during the
Self-Clean cycle. This will help eliminate the normal odors
associated with the Self-Clean cycle.
See example below to start an immediate Self-Cleaning
cycle or to set a Delay Start time of 9:00 o’clock and shut-
o
ff
automatically (example provided is a default 3 hour
Self-Clean cycle)

oven is EMPTY and the oven door is closed.
2. Press
SELF CLEAN
.
The control will automatically clean for a 3 hour period
(default self-cleaning cycle time). Note: If a 2 or 4 hour
clean time is desired, press
2 0 0
for 2 hour or press
4 0
0
for a 4 hour clean time. Set the cleaning time based
on the amount of soil: light, medium or heavy (*See
above).
3. Press
START
.
As soon as Self Clean becomes active, a motor driven
lock mechanism will begin locking the oven door
automatically.
DOOR
will appear in the display. Do
not open the oven door when
DOOR
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.
Note:
Allow about 15 seconds for the oven door lock to close.
Note: If the optional delay Self-Clean feature is needed,
fi
nish steps 4-6.
4. Press
DELAY START
.
5. Enter the desired Self-Clean starting time using the
number pads
9 0 0
.
6. Press
START
.
The control will calculate forward from the set start time
to determine when the Self-Cleaning cycle should end.
The Self-Cleaning cycle will turn on automatically at the
set time.
When the Self-Clean Cycle is Completed
1. The Cln message will turn o
ff
, and
Hot
will appear in
display window.
2. Once the oven has cooled down (about 1 hour) and
Hot
is no longer displayed, the
door Opn
message will appear.
When this message turns o
ff
, the oven door may be opened.
Stopping or Interrupting a Self-Cleaning Cycle
If it becomes necessary to stop or interrupt a self-cleaning
cycle due to excessive smoke or
fi
re in the oven:
1. Press
STOP
.
2. Once the oven has cooled down for approximately 1
HOUR, and the
DOOR
icon is no longer displayed,
the oven door can then be opened.
CAUTION
• 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.
•
DO NOT
force the oven door open. 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.
IMPORTANT
• When Self Clean is active, you may check the amount of
clean time remaining by pressing the Self Clean key once.
• If your clock is set with the (default) 12 hr display mode,
the Delay Start for a Self Clean can only be programmed
to start up to 11 hours and 59 minutes after the time showing
in the display (be sure to set the clock to current time before
programming a delay start). To set a Delay Start Self Clean
to begin 12 or more hours (maximum is 23 hours and 59
minutes) after the time of setting, be sure to
fi
rst set the
control in the 24 Hr display mode.
• If Self Clean was active and then interrupted by a power
failure or cancelled before the oven was thoroughly cleaned,
it may be necessary to run another Self Clean cycle.
• If the oven temperature was high enough when Self Clean
was interrupted, the oven control may not allow another Self
Clean cycle to be set for up to 4 hours.
