Flex Clean
A self-cleaning (Flex Clean)oven
cleans itself with high
temperatures (well above normal cooking temperatures)
which eliminate soils completely or reduces them to a fine
powdered ash you can wipe away with a damp cloth.
Your Flex Clean feature allows you to set any amout of
self-clean time from 2 hours to 4 hours. A 3-hour cleaning
time is best used for normal cleaning; 2-hour time for light
soils and a 4-hour time option for heavier stubborn soils.
to the following
self=clean precautions:
•
DO NOT use oven cleaners or oven protective
coatings in or around any part of the oven interior.
DO NOT clean the oven door gasket. The woven
material of the oven door gasket is essential for a
good seal. Care should be taken not to rub, damage
or remove the gasket.
•
DO NOT use any cleaning materials on the oven door
gasket. Doing so could cause damage to the door
gasket (See Fig. 1).
Remove the broiler pan and insert, all utensils
and ANY ALUMINUM
FOIL. These items cannot
withstand
high cleaning
temperatures
and will
melt.
•
Completely
remove ALL INTERIOR OVEN RACKS
and ANY ACCESSORIES.
if the oven racks are
not removed they will begin to discolor.
Remove any excessive
spillovers,
Any spills on
the oven bottom should be wiped-up and removed
before starting
the self-cleaning cycle. To clean,
use hot, soapy water and a cloth. Large spillovers
can cause heavy smoke or fire when subjected to
high temperatures.
DO NOT allow food spills with a
high sugar or acid content (such as milk, tomatoes,
,,
sauerkraut, fruit juices or pie filling) to remain on the
surface as they may leave a dull spot even after
cleaning.
•
Clean any soil from the oven frame, the door liner
outside the oven door gasket and the small area at
the front center of the oven bottom. These areas heat
sufficiently to burn soil on. Clean with soap and
water. These areas are shown in white (See Fig. 1).

During the self-cleaning cycle, the outside of the range
can become very hot to the touch. DO NOT leave small
children unattended near the appliance.
The health of some birds is extremely sensitive to the
fumes given off during the self-cleaning cycle of any
range. Move birds to anotherwell-ventilated
room.
DO NOT force the oven door open. This can damage the
automatic door locking system. Use caution when
ii
opening the door after the self-cleaning cycle is
completed. The oven may still be VERY NOT.
