During Self Clean
• The Self Clean cycle uses extremely hot
temperatures to clean the oven cavity. While
running the Self Clean cycle, you may notice
smoking or an odor. This is normal, especially if the
oven is heavily soiled.
• As the oven heats, you may hear sounds of metal
parts expanding and contracting. This is normal
and will not damage the oven.
• Do not force the oven door open when the lock
is displayed. The oven door remains locked until
the oven temperature has cooled. Forcing the door
open will damage the door.
