Before a Clean Cycle
We recommend venting your kitchen
with an open window or using a
ventilation fan or hood during the
first self-clean cycle.
Remove broiler pan, broiler grid, probe,
all cookware and any aluminum foil from
the oven.
The shiny, silver-colored oven shelves
(on some models) can be self-cleaned,
but they will darken, lose their luster
and become hard to slide.
How to Set the Oven for Cleaning
Press the SELF CLEAN STD/LOW pad
once for a 4-hour clean time or
twice for a 3-hour clean time.
A 3-hour self-clean time is
recommended for use when
cleaning small, contained spills. A
self-clean time of 4 hours or longer
is recommended for a dirtier oven.
If a time other than 4 hours or
3 hours is needed, use the number
pads and enter the desired clean
time.
You can change the clean time to any
time between 3 hours and 5 hours,
depending on how dirty your oven is.
Press the START pad.
The door locks automatically. The display
will show the clean time remaining. It will
not be possible to open the oven door
until the temperature drops below the
lock temperature and the LOCKED light
goes off.
Do not use abrasives or oven cleaners.
Clean the top, sides and outside of the
oven door with soap and water.
Make sure the oven light bulb cover
(on some models) is in place and the
oven light is off.
IMPORTANT: The health of some
birds is extremely sensitive to the fumes
given off during the self-cleaning cycle
of any oven. Move birds to another
well-ventilated room.
When the LOCKED light goes off, you will
be able to open the door.
