How the Cycle Works
IMPORTANT: The heating and cooling of porcelain on steel in the
oven may result in discoloring, loss of gloss, hairline cracks and
popping sounds.
The Self-Cleaning cycle uses very high temperatures, burning soil
to a powdery ash.
The oven is preset for a 3 hour clean cycle; however, the time can
be changed. Suggested clean times are 2 hours for light soil and
between 3 hours and 4 hours for average to heavy soil.
Once the oven has completely cooled, remove ash with a damp
cloth. To avoid breaking the glass, do not apply a cool damp
cloth to the inner door glass before it has completely cooled.
The oven light will not work during the Self-Cleaning cycle.
On some models, the surface elements will not work during the
Self-Cleaning cycle.
When “LOCK” shows in the display, the door cannot be opened.
To avoid damage to the door, do not force the door open when
“LOCK” is displayed.
If an oven door is left open, “Door Open Clean Canceled” will
appear in the display and a signal will beep. Close the oven door
and press CLEAN MODES.
