To Start the Delayed Self-Clean Cycle

The automatic timer will turn the oven on and off at the time you select in advance. Be sure to review TO START THE SELF-CLEAN
CYCLE for recommended clean times.
To set the controls for the Self-Cleaning Cycle to start at a delayed time and shut off automatically:
(example 3 hour self-clean cycle to finish at 9:00)
1. Be sure the clock is set with the correct time of day and the oven door is closed.
2. Press CLEAN pad. "CLEAN" will flash and "3:00" (default 3 hour clean cycle) will show in the display. If a 2 or 4 hour clean
time is desired use the number pads to enter the time. Set the cleaning time based on the amount of soil you have—light,
medium or heavy (*see To start the Self-Clean Cycle).
3. Press START pad. The "DOOR LOCKED" icon will flash; "CLEAN" icon and the letters "CLn" will remain on in the display.
4. Press STOP TIME pad. Enter the desired Stop Time using the number pads 9 0 0.

6. As soon as the control is set, the motor driven oven door lock will begin to close automatically and once the door has been
locked the "DOOR LOCKED" indicator light will quit flashing and remain on . The oven icon will appear in the display.
7. The control will calculate backward from the set stop time to determine when the self-cleaning cycle should begin. The self-
cleaning cycle will come on automatically at the calculated time. At that time, the icon "DELAY" will go out; "CLEAN" and
"CLn" will appear in the display.
When the Self-Clean Cycle is Completed
1. The time of day, the "DOOR LOCKED" and "CLEAN" icon will remain in the display.
2. Once the oven has cooled down for approximately 1 HOUR, and the icon "DOOR LOCKED" is no longer displayed, the oven
door can be opened.
Stopping or Interrupting a Self-Cleaning Cycle
If it becomes necessary to stop or interrupt a self-cleaning cycle due to excessive smoke or fire in the oven:
1. Press CLEAR OFF pad.
2. Once the oven has cooled down for approximately 1 HOUR and the "DOOR LOCKED" icon is no longer displayed, then the
oven door may be opened.

Adjusting Oven Temperature

Note: The Oven Temperature adjustments made with this feature will not change the Self-Cleaning Cycle temperature.
The temperature in the oven has been pre-set at the factory. When first using the oven, be sure to follow recipe times and
temperatures. If you think the oven is too hot or too cool, the temperature in the oven can be adjusted. Before adjusting, test a
recipe by using a temperature setting that is higher or lower than the recommended temperature. The baking results should help
you to decide how much of an adjustment is needed.
To adjust oven temperature:
1. Push BAKE pad for 6 seconds. A beep will sound.
2. To increase the temperature use the number pads to enter the desire change. (Example 30°F) 3 0. The temperature may be
increased up to 35°F (17°C). Press START to accept the temperature change and the display will return to the time of day.
Press CLEAR OFF to reject the change if necessary.
3. To decrease the temperature use the number pads to enter the desire change. (Example -30°F). 3 0 and then push CLEAN
pad. The temperature may be decreased by 35°F (17°C). Press START to accept the temperature change and the display
will return to the time of day. Press CLEAR OFF to reject the change if necessary.
