Range Care; Self-Cleaning Cycle - Jenn-Air JGRP430WP00 Use & Care Manual

RANGE CARE
Burn Hazard
Do not touch the oven during the Self-Cleaning cycle.
Keep children away from oven during
Self-Cleaning cycle.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in burns.
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.
Self-clean the oven before it becomes heavily soiled. Heavy soil
results in longer cleaning and more smoke.
Keep the kitchen well-ventilated during the Self-Cleaning cycle to
help get rid of heat, odors, and smoke.
Do not block the oven vent(s) during the Self-Cleaning cycle. Air
must be able to move freely. Depending on your model, see
"Oven Vent" or "Oven Vents" section.
Do not clean, rub, damage or move the oven door gasket. The
door gasket is essential for a good seal.
Prepare Oven:
• Remove the broiler pan, grid, cookware and bakeware and,
on some models, the temperature probe from the oven.
• Remove oven racks to keep them shiny and easy to slide.
See "General Cleaning" section for more information.
• Remove any foil from the oven because it may burn or melt,
damaging the oven.
• Hand clean inside door edge and the 11/2"(3.8 cm) area
around the inside oven cavity frame, being certain not to
move or bend the gasket. This area does not get hot enough
during self-cleaning to remove soil. Do not let water, cleaner,
etc., enter slots on door frame. Use a damp cloth to clean this
area.
The oven is preset for a 4 hour clean cycle; however the time can
be changed. Suggested clean times are 3 hours 30 minutes for
light soil and between 4 hours and 4 hours 30 minutes for
average to heavy soil.
Use the following chart as a guide to determine the desired
cleaning level.
CLEANING TOTAL CLEANING TIME
LEVEL (includes a 30 minute cool down time)
Light 3 hours 30 minutes
Medium 4 hours
Heavy 4 hours 30 minutes
Once the oven has completely cooled, remove ash with a damp
cloth. If soil remains after wiping, that means the length of the
clean cycle was not long enough for the amount of soil in the
oven. Repeat the self-clean cycle if desired, or the soil will be
removed during the next clean cycle. To avoid breaking the glass,
do not apply a cool damp cloth to the inner door glass before it
has completely cooled.
The oven lights will not work during the Self-Cleaning cycle.
On 48" (121.9 cm) ranges, only one oven can self-clean at a time.
If one oven is self-cleaning, the other oven cannot be set or
turned on.
NOTE: The oven has a 2 speed cooling fan motor. During self-
cleaning the fan(s) will operate at its highest speed to increase
airflow to better exhaust the hotter air through the oven vent(s).
An increase of noise may be noticeable during and after the self-
cleaning cycle until the oven cools.
To Self-Clean:
1. From the Modes or Setup menus, touch the SELF-CLEAN
button.
2. If accessing Self Clean by using the Setup Menu on 48"
(121.9 cm) ranges, select the oven you want to clean: Left or
Right, then touch NEXT.
3. Two messages appear on the screen:
• Remove all oven racks and pans from the oven. Racks
could discolor and not slide easily after a Self Clean
cycle.
• Clean oven frame and door frame with a nonabrasive
cleaning agent because they are not exposed to cleaning
temperatures. Do not clean gasket.
4. Touch NEXT.
Wipe out any loose soil to reduce smoke and avoid damage.
At high temperatures, foods react with porcelain. Staining,
etching, pitting or faint white spots can result. This will not
affect cooking performance.
5=
Select the cleaning level by pressing the buttons:
Light (31/2hours), Medium (4 hours) or Heavy (41/2hours).
NOTE: The oven will cool for an additional hour after cleaning
is completed.
How the Cycle Works
IMPORTANT: The heating and cooling of porcelain on steel in the
oven may result in discoloring, loss of gloss, hairline cracks and
popping sounds.
The Self-Cleaning cycle uses very high temperatures, burning soil
to a powdery ash.
6. To set a delayed start, touch DELAY START. See "Delay Start"
section for additional information.
7. Touch START. The door(s) will lock.
To Stop Self-Clean anytime:
Touch CANCEL OVEN (CANCEL LEFT or CANCEL RIGHT on
48" [121.9 cm] oven models). If the oven temperature is too high,
the door will remain locked. It will not unlock until the oven cools.
