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 2 hour 30 minute clean cycle; however,
the time can be changed. There are 5 levels of clean. Suggested
clean times are 2 hours 30 minutes for light soil and between
3 hours 30 minutes to 4 hours 30 minutes for average to heavy
soil. Use the following chart as a guide to determine the desired
cleaning level.

cloth. To avoid breaking the glass, do not apply a cool damp
cloth to the inner door glass before it has completely cooled.
