AUTOMATIC SELF-CLEANING
Do not touch the oven during the Self-Cleaning cycle.

Keep children away from oven during Self-Cleaning cycle.

Failure to do so can result in burns.
This oven features a self-cleaning function that eliminates the
need to manually scrub the oven interior. During self-cleaning, the
oven uses very high temperatures, burning soil to a powdery ash.
IMPORTANT: The health of some birds is extremely sensitive
to the fumes given off during the Self-Cleaning cycle. Exposure
to the fumes may result in death to certain birds. Always move
birds to another closed and well-ventilated room.
• Keep the kitchen well ventilated during the Self-Cleaning
cycle to help get rid of heat, odors and smoke.
• 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.
• Do not block the oven vent(s) during the Self-Cleaning cycle.
Air must be able to move freely. See "Oven Vents" on page 14.
• Do not clean, rub, damage or move the oven door gasket.
• The door latch is automatically activated after selecting the
Self-Clean cycle. "AUTO LOCK" will appear in the display.
This ensures that the oven door cannot be opened while the
to
®
oven interior is at clean temperatures.
• The oven is preset for a 2.5 hour clean cycle; however, the time
can be changed. Suggested clean times are 2 hours for light soil
and between 3.0 hours and 3.5 hours for average to heavy soil.
• Clean mode stops automatically at the end of the set cleaning
time.
