Oven Cleaning
Note (some models): During the self-cleaning, the surface element, when used, are subjected to high heat. To ensure
maximum element life, a safe guard locks off the use of the surface elements during the self-clean cycle. Once the oven cleaning
cycle is completed and the oven door can be opened, the surface elements can be utilized.
To Start the Self-Clean Cycle
*We recommend a 2 hour self-clean cycle for light soils, a 3 hour cycle for average soils, and a 4 hour cycle for heavy soils.
To Set the Controls for the Self-Cleaning Cycle To Start Immediately and Shut Off Automatically:
1. Be sure the clock shows the correct time of day and the door is close.
2. Push CLEAN. "CLN TIME" will flash in the display.
3. Push and hold the UP or DOWN ARROW until "3 HR:00" appears in the display. Set the cleaning time based on the amount
of soil you have—light, medium or heavy. *See above.
4. As soon as the controls are set, the motor driven lock will begin to close automatically and the word "DOOR" will be displayed
and 3 beeps will be heard. After about 15 seconds, the lock is closed and the word "LOCK" appears in the display.
For 36" Gas Range Models: Move the door locking lever to the right. If the locking lever is not moved, the control will display
the word "DOOR" and beep 3 times, with a single bip every 10 seconds until the locking lever is moved. If the locking lever
is not moved within 30 seconds, the clean function will be automatically cancelled.
5. The word "CLEAN" will be displayed. The "OVEN" light will come on and cycle with the oven elements.
To Stop or Interrupt a Self-Cleaning Cycle
If it becomes necessary to stop or interrupt a self-cleaning cycle due to excessive smoke or fire:
1. Push CANCEL.
2. Once the oven has cooled down and the word "LOCKED" shown in the display has gone out, then the oven door can be opened.
To Set the Controls for the Self-Cleaning Cycle To Start at a Delayed Time and Shut off Automatically:
Follow steps 1-3 above, THEN:
4. Push STOP TIME. The time of day that the self-cleaning cycle ends will appear in the display. The words "CLN STOP TIME"
will flash in the display.
5. Push and hold the UP or DOWN ARROW until the time of day that you want the cleaning to be completed appears in the
display.
For 36" Gas Range Models: Move the door locking lever to the right. If the locking lever is not moved, the control will display
the word "DOOR" and beep 3 times, with a single bip every 10 seconds until the locking lever is moved. If the locking lever
is not moved within 30 seconds, the clean function will be automatically cancelled.
6. The control will calculate backward from the set stop time to determine when the self-cleaning cycle should begin. The words
"DELAY" and "CLN STOP TIME" will glow in the display.
7. The self-cleaning cycle will come on automatically at the calculated time. At that time, the word "DELAY" will go out and
"ON" will appear.
When the Self-Clean Cycle is Completed
1. The time of day will appear in the display window and the word "LOCKED" may remain in the display.
2. Once the oven has cooled down and the word "LOCKED" shown in the display has gone out, then the oven door can be
opened.
DO NOT force the oven door open. This can damage the automatic door locking system. Use caution when
opening the door after the self-cleaning cycle is completed. The oven may still be VERY HOT.
