cleaning level.
CLEANING TOTAL CLEANING TIME

Once the oven has completely cooled, remove ash with a damp
cloth. To avoid breaking the glass, do not apply a cool damp
cloth to the inner door glass before it has completely cooled.
The oven lights will not work during the High Temp Self-Cleaning
cycle.
On double oven models, only one oven can self-clean at a time. If
one oven is high temp self-cleaning, the other oven cannot be set
or turned on.
On combo oven models, be sure that the microwave oven is
turned off. The microwave oven is disabled when oven is in the
Self-Clean cycle.
NOTE: The oven has a 2 speed cooling fan motor. During self-
clean the fan(s) will operate at its highest speed to increase
airflow to better exhaust the hotter air through the oven vent(s).
An increase of noise may be noticeable during and after the self-
clean cycle until the oven cools.
To Start High-Temp Self-Cleaning:
Before high temp self-cleaning, make sure the door is closed
completely or it will not lock and the cycle will not begin.
1. Touch SELF CLEAN. Touch SELF CLEAN repeatedly to set a
clean time other than 4 hours and 30 minutes. The clean time
can be set between 3 hours and 30 minutes and 5 hours and
30 minutes.

2. Touch START.
The oven will start locking the door and display "Locking
Door." Opening the door at this point will cancel the self-
clean cycle. "Door Locked" will display once the door is
locked. Then, the start time and stop time will appear in the
oven display.
When the cycle is complete and the oven is cool, "self clean
complete" will appear on the oven display and "DOOR
LOCKED" will disappear. The door will not unlock until the
oven is cool.
3. Touch CANCEL, or open and close the oven door to clear the
oven display.

self-clean cycle. "Door Locked" will display once the door is
