Self-Cleaning
What to Expect during Cleaning
While
the oven is in operation,
the oven heats to temperatures
much higher than
those used in normal
cooking.
Sounds of metal expansion
and contraction
are
normal.
Odor is also normal
as the food soil is being removed.
Smoke may appear
through
the oven vent.
If heavy spillovers
are not wiped
up before cleaning,
they may flame
and cause
more smoke and odor than usual. This is normal
and safe and should not cause
alarm.
If available,
use an exhaust fan during
the self-cleaning
cycle.
Self-Clean
Cycle time length
For satisfactory
results, use a 2 hour Self-Clean
cycle for light sails and a 3 hour
cycle for average
or a 4 hour cycle for heavy
sails. NOTE: The kitchen
area should
be well ventilated
using an open window,
ventilation
fan or exhaust hood during the
Self-Clean
cycle. This will help eliminate
the normal
odors associated
with the Self-
Clean cycle.
_To
avoid
possible
burns use care when opening
the
oven door after the Self-Cleaning
cycle. Stand to the side of the
oven when opening
the door to
allow hot air or steam to escape.
_DO
NOT force
the oven door open. This can
damage
the automatic
door
locking
system. Use caution
and avoid possible
burns when
opening
the door after the Self-
Cleaning
cycle has completed.
The oven may still be VERY HOT.
