Self-Cleaning Cycle
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.
Before self-cleaning, make sure the door is completely closed or
the door will not lock and the self-cleaning cycle will not begin.
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.
To stop the self-cleaning cycle at anytime, press the CANCEL
button on the keypad. If the temperature is too high, the oven door
will remain locked and "cool" and "locked" will be displayed. The
cooling fan may continue to run.
Once the cleaning temperature has been reached, the electronic
control requires a 12-hour delay before another self-clean cycle
can be started.
The oven light will not function during the self-cleaning cycle.
Electronic Oven Control with Adjustable Clean Time (on
some models)
The SELF CLEAN self-cleaning cycle is time adjustable between
2 hours 30 minutes and 4 hours 30 minutes in 15-minute
increments. Suggested clean times are 2 hours 30 minutes for light
soil, and 4 hours 30 minutes for heavy soil. The last 30 minutes of
the cycle is for cool down.
To Self-Clean:
1. Press SELF CLEAN.
2. Press the Temp-Time "up" or "down" arrow pads to enter the
desired self-clean cycle time.
3. Press START.
The oven door will automatically lock. The DOOR LOCKED and
CLEAN indicator lights will be displayed. The time remaining
will also be displayed.
4. When the self-clean cycle is complete and the oven cools, the
DOOR LOCKED and CLEAN indicator lights will turn off.
5. When the oven is completely cooled, remove ash with a damp
cloth.
