the cooking and cleaning functions. This is normal.

from the room. Touch the Upper Clear/Off or Lower Clear/Off key. Wait
until the light goes off before trying to open the oven door. Wipe up the
excess soil and reset the clean cycle.

section.

the Self Clean cycle. Heavily soiled ovens may need either a longer
Self Clean or two Self Clean cycles.
• The self clean cycle has been selected, but the door is not closed.
- Close the oven door.

too high.Touch the Upper Clear/Off or Lower Clear/Off key.

valve or the oven gas shut-off
valve and call for service.
• Remove the power from the
range for five minutes and then
reconnect the power. If the

for service.
