14.2 Cleaning the conventional oven
Here you can find information on cleaning the
conventional oven cavity.
Self clean function
With pyrolytic self cleaning the oven is heated to a very
high temperature. Stubborn soil is burnt off and can be
wiped out after self clean is finished and the oven has
cooled.
After the completion of a self-clean cycle, the oven will not
allow you to start another self-clean cycle for 24 hours.
For a double oven, if one cavity runs self clean, neither
cavity may operate a self clean cycle for 24 hours.
Preparing self clean
WARNING
During the elimination of soil during self-cleaning, small
amounts of carbon monoxide can be created and the
fiberglass insulation could give off very small amounts of
formaldehyde during the first several cleaning cycles.
To minimize exposure to these substances, provide
▶
good ventilation with an open window, or use a
ventilation fan or hood.
During the self clean cycle, parts of the appliance may
become potentially harmful to persons who lack adult
knowledge of appliances and adult reactions to potentially
harmful conditions.
Children should not be left alone or unattended in an
▶
area where appliances are in use.
The oven heats up to a very high temperature during self
cleaning. Opening the door can result in injury.
When self-cleaning, confirm that the door locks and will
