OVEN SELF-CLEANING MODE

The self-cleaning oven of your new range features pyrolytic self-cleaning. When set in the clean mode,
the oven reaches a high temperature that burns off the food soil. When the oven is set for clean, the
cooktop burners may be used. It is common to see smoke and/or flames during the 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. At the end of the
clean cycle, some gray ash or burned residue may remain inside the oven. This is a mineral deposit that
does not burn or melt. The amount of ash depends on how heavily soiled the oven was before the
oven was cleaned. It is easily removed, once the oven has cooled, using a damp paper towel, sponge,
or cloth. Wipe off any smoke residue that remains on the front frame with Formula 409® or Fantastik®.
If stain remains, use a mild liquid cleanser. The amount of smoke stain is directly related to the amount
of food soil left in the oven at the time of self-cleaning. Clean the oven often.
OVEN DOOR LOCK DURING
SELF-CLEAN
When the clean cycle starts, the lock light turns
on, and the automatic door lock cycle begins.
DO NOT attempt to open the door when the
lock light is on. You can stop the cycle by
pushing the OFF button. The lock light will turn
off only after the oven has cooled below 550ºF,
and the automatic door lock has completed its
cycle to the open position.

BEFORE SELF-CLEANING THE OVEN:

Remove all utensils and racks.
Clean the oven front frame and outer
door edges. Wipe up large spillovers
and grease. (see fig. 10)
Be sure the light bulbs and glass
covers are in place.
Turn on the ventilator hood above the
range and leave it on until after the
oven has completed the self-clean
cycle.
Remove Oven Racks and Rack Slide
Assemblies.
NOTE: An Interlock System has been designed so that the Self-Clean Cycle will not engage
until the Rack Slide Assemblies have been removed. The roller assisted rack supports
are designed to withstand the temperature range of the standard baking thermostat.
They will not withstand the extreme temperatures of pyrolytic self cleaning. To
remove the Assemblies:
OVEN SELF-CLEANING MODE
A) For each side, remove the retaining screw,
B) Lift up slightly and pull the entire assembly out. Set aside.
Replace the assemblies and retaining screws after the Self-Clean
cycle has finished.
