Self-Cleaning
To Start the Self-Clean Cycle
The CLEAN pad controls the Self-Cleaning feature. If you are
planning to use the oven directly after a self-clean cycle remember to
allow time for the oven to cool down and the oven door to unlock. This
normally takes about one hour. So a 3 hour self-clean cycle will actually
take about 4 hours to complete.
*It is recommend to use a 2 hour self-clean cycle for light soils, a 3 hour
cycle for average soils, and a 4 hour cycle for heavy soils (to assure
satisfactory results)
