Problem
Possible cause
There is excessive soiling in
the oven.
The oven is too hot.
The oven controls were not
set correctly.
The oven was heavily soiled.
When using the convection
feature, it is normal to see
steam coming out of the oven
vent.
As the number of racks or
amount of food being cooked
increases, the amount of
visible steam will increase.
This is normal in a new oven
and will disappear in time.
Solution
Press OFF. Open the windows
to rid the room of smoke.
Wait until the self-cleaning
cycle is cancelled. Wipe up the
excessive soil and then start
the self-cleaning cycle again.
Allow the oven to cool.
See the section on self-
cleaning on page 49.
Wipe up heavy spillovers
before starting the self-
cleaning cycle. Heavily soiled
ovens may need to be self-
cleaned again or for a longer
period of time.
This is normal operation and
not a system failure.
Use the range as usual.
•
To speed the process, set
a self-cleaning cycle for a
minimum of 3 hours.
