Preparing the Oven for 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 oven door locks at the beginning of the self-clean cycle.
• 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.
• Four hours is the preset length of cleaning. The range can also be set to clean
for 3 or 5 hours.
• The mode automatically stops at the end of the clean hours.
• When the oven cools after cleaning, the automatic door lock will release and
the door can be opened.
• To cancel or stop while the mode is operating, press OFF.
• The door will not unlock until the oven reaches a safe temperature.
WARNING
A flexible door gasket is necessary for a good seal. Do not clean, rub,
damage or move the gasket.
1. Remove all utensils and bakeware.
2. Remove oven racks. If oven racks are left in the oven during the self-clean
cycle, they will permanently lose the shiny finish and change to a dull dark fin-
ish. See Oven Cleaning Chart for proper care.
3. Wipe up excessive soil, spills and grease before self-cleaning the oven.
Excess grease will cause flames and smoke inside the oven during self-clean-
ing.
Do not hand-clean
the gasket.
Do hand-clean frame
area outside the gasket.
Do hand-clean door
area outside the gasket.
4. Review illustration above. Some areas of the oven must be cleaned by hand
before the cycle begins. Use a soapy sponge or plastic scrubber or a deter-
®
gent-filled S.O.S. pad. Hand-clean the oven door edge, oven front frame and
up to 1-1/2 inches inside the frame with detergent and hot water. Do not clean
or rub the gasket on the oven. The gasket is designed to hold in heat during
the self-clean cycle. Rinse all areas thoroughly then dry.
5. Be sure oven light is turned off and the light bulbs and lens covers are in
place. Do not operate oven without light bulb and cover in place.
Important: Do not use Commercial Oven Cleaners on the self-clean oven or any
part because they will damage the finish or part.
Cleaning and Maintenance
Do hand-clean 1 1/2 inches from
rack guides to front of oven cavity.
