ash, depending
upon the amount of soil which
was in the oven. This ash can be removed with
a wipe of a
moist
sponge
or cloth. IF PART
OF A DARK
DEPOSIT
REMAINS
AFTER
WIPING
WITH
A
MOIST
SPONGE,
CLEANING
TIME
WAS
NOT
LONG
ENOUGH.
The
deposit
will be removed
in
subsequent
cleanings.
HAIR-LIKE
LINES
may be noticed
on the
gray enameled surfaces of the Self-Clean
oven.
This
is a common
condition,
resulting
from
heating
and
cooling
during
cleaning.
These
lines do not affect oven performance.
WHEN
LOCK
LIGHT
GLOWS—If
YOU
cook
at
high
temperatures
just
before
cleaning,
the
Lock
Light
may
glow during
cooking
or when
OVEN
SET
is switched
to CLEAN.
The
glow
indicates
that the oven is too hot for latch to be
moved
to the far right
and the oven
must
be
cooled
first.
See preceding
pages
for informa-
tion on glowing
Lock Light during
cleaning.
SMOKE—IF
SMOKING
OCCURS
DURING
CLEANING
because
of conditions
mentioned
in
How To Operate Self-Clean
Oven, DO NOT
TRY
TO
FORCE
DOOR
OPEN
but follow
these steps:
a. TURN
OVEN
SET TO OFF.
b. Open windows and door to rid the room of
smoke.
c. Allow oven to cool AT LEAST
ONE HOUR
before opening the oven door.
d. Correct the condition
which caused smoking
and start the Self-Clean
oven operating
again.

HEATING
AND
COOLING
of metal during
cleaning or during cooking result in "crackling"
sounds which are considered
normal.
A FAN
may be heard
sometime
during
the
complete
cleaning
cycle
(except
on
models
with an RF prefix which are cooled and vented
by a different
method).
On models
equippe[l
with a fan, if the fan is not heard
call for
Hotpoint service before cleaning the oven again.
The
fan motor
is permanently
lubricated
so
does not need oiling.
L'ATCH
POSITION
DURING
COOKING
should be at far left. If latch is at far right
and OVEN SET is at position for cooking, the
power to the oven goes off.
