OVEN CLEANING

The oven can be programmed to begin cleaning immediately and stop at a later time automatically,
or to start at a delayed time and stop automatically
To Start the Self-Clean Cycle
*To assure satisfactory results, we recommend a 2 hour self-clean cycle for light soils, a 2 1/2 - 3 hour
cycle for average soils, and a 4 hour cycle for heavy soils.
To Begin Cleaning Immediately and Stop Automatically:
1. Make sure the clock is set to the correct time of day as the self-clean operation works directly with
the clock.
2. Close the oven door.
3. Push the CLEAN pad for the oven to be cleaned. The words "CLEAN" and "TIME" will flash and
"-HR-:-" will appear in the display. A number indicating which oven is being programmed will also
flash (1- upper oven, 2- lower oven).
4. Push the UP
or DOWN
( )
"2Hr:30" will show in the display at first. Set the cleaning time based on the amount of soil you
have. For an oven with average soil, "2Hr:30" is correct. The time will increase or decrease in 5
minute increments.
Three seconds after the controls are set, the motor driven lock will begin to close and the cleaning
cycle will begin. It takes about 15 seconds for the door to completely lock. The word "LOCK" and
"ON" will appear in the display. The door cannot be opened after the oven temperature reaches
560°F (293°C). When the oven reaches cleaning temperature, the "ON" indicator will cycle on and
off with the element. Push the CANCEL pad before opening the door. The door cannot be opened
until the oven temperature is below 560°F (293°C) and the "LOCK" indicator goes off. See
"Stopping or Interrupting a Self-Clean Cycle".
NOTE: If the oven door was left open, after 2 minutes "F8" appears in the display and a signal beeps
continously. Close the door and push both the upper and lower oven CANCEL pads. The door will
then lock and unlock immediately after.
To Start at a Later Time and Stop Automatically:
1. Follow steps 1-4 above:
2. Push STOP TIME pad. "CLEAN", "STOP" and "TIME" will flash in the display.
3. Push the UP
ARROW pad until the time that you want cleaning to be completed appears in
( )
display. A stop time can be accepted only for a later time.
4. The control will calculate backward from the set stop time to determine when the cleaning cycle
should begin. "DELAY" will glow in the display. To see the time that the oven will come on, push
and hold the CLEAN pad for 3 seconds. The calculated start time will appear in the display for
a few seconds.
The clean cycle will come on automatically at the calculated time. At that time, the word "DELAY"
and "ON" will go out.
The oven will heat to a very high temperature. Soil and spillovers will burn off of the oven surfaces.
Do not try to open the oven door without cancelling the cleaning cycle. The word "LOCKED" will
remain in the display until the oven cools below 560°F (293°C) and the door has unlocked. Only then
can the door be opened.
Stopping or Interrupting the Self-Cleaning Cycle
1. Push the CANCEL pad.
2. If the word "LOCK" remains in the display, the oven is too hot to open the door. Once the oven
cools below 560°F (293°C), the word "LOCK" will go out. If the self-clean cycle was interrupted
due to smoke or fire, correct the condition and start the self-clean operation again.
3. When cycle is completed, a powdery ash will be found wherever there was heavy soil. Wipe away
residue with a damp cloth after the oven has cooled.
If the oven was not satisfactorily cleaned, the cleaning time was not long enough. Reset the controls
and repeat the self-cleaning cycle.
ARROW pad until the desired cleaning time appears in the display.
