Self-Cleaning the Oven

This oven features a pyrolytic self-cleaning function that
eliminates the difficult and time consuming manual
scrubbing of the oven interior. During self-cleaning, the oven
uses a very high temperature (approx. 885°F/470°C)
to burn away food soil and grease.
• Only one oven at a time can be set to Self-Clean.
• It is common to see smoke and/or an occasional flame-up
during the Self-Clean cycle, depending on the content and
amount of soil remaining in the oven. If a flame persists, turn
off the oven and allow it to cool before opening the door to
wipe up the excessive food soil.
• The door latch is automatically activated after selecting the
Self-Clean cycle. The "AUTO LOCK" writings will appear
in the display. This ensures that the door cannot be opened
while the oven interior is at clean temperatures.
• The oven light does not operate during this mode.
• During Self-Clean, the kitchen should be well ventilated to
help eliminate odors associated with Self- Clean. Odors will
lessen with use.
• Three hours is the preset length of cleaning.
• The mode automatically stops at the end of the clean hours.
• When the oven heat drops to a safe temperature, the
automatic door lock will release and the door can be
opened.

21 - Oven Care and Cleaning

Preparing the Oven for Self-Clean

1. Remove all utensils and bake ware.
2. Remove non-porcelain oven racks. If chromed racks are left
in the oven during the self-clean cycle, they will permanently
lose the shiny finish and change to a dull dark finish. See
Oven Cleaning Chart for proper care, Pages 27 to
28.
3. Wipe up any soft soil spills and grease with paper towels.
Excess grease will cause flames and smoke inside the oven
during self-cleaning.
4. Review illustration below. Some areas of the oven must be
cleaned by hand before the cycle begins. They do not get
hot enough during the cleaning cycle for soil to burn away.
Use a soapy sponge or plastic scrubber or a detergent-
filled S.O.S.® pad. Hand-clean the oven door edge, oven
front frame and up to 1-½ " (2-3 cm) inside the frame with
detergent and hot water. Do not rub the gasket on oven.
Clean by hand the oven door window. Rinse all areas
thoroughly then dry.
5. Be sure oven interior lights are turned off and the light bulbs
and lens covers are in place. See Pages 30.
