General Cleaning - KitchenAid KGRS807 Use & Care Manual

How the Cycle Works
IMPORTANT: The heating and cooling of porcelain on steel in the
oven may result in discoloring, loss of gloss, hairline cracks and
popping sounds.
The Self-Cleaning cycle uses very high temperatures, burning soil
to a powdery ash.
The oven is preset for a 2 hour 30 minute clean cycle, however
the time can be changed. There are 5 levels of clean. Suggested
clean times are 2 hours 30 minutes for light soil and between
3 hours 30 minutes to 4 hours 30 minutes for average to heavy
soil. Use the following chart as a guide to determine the desired
cleaning level.
CLEANING TOTAL CLEANING TIME
LEVEL (includes a 30 minute cool down time)
1 (Quick) 2 hours 30 minutes
2 3 hours
3 (Regular) 3 hours 30 minutes
4 4 hours
5 (Maxi) 4 hours 30 minutes
Once the oven has completely cooled, remove ash with a damp
cloth. Do not wipe down any of the inside surfaces until the oven
has completely cooled down. Applying a cool damp cloth to the
inner door glass before it has cooled completely could result in
the glass breaking.
The oven light will not work during the Self-Cleaning cycle.
To Self-Clean:
Before self-cleaning, make sure the door is closed completely or
it will not lock and the cycle will not begin.
1. Press SELF CLEAN. To set a clean time other than
3 hours 30 minutes, press SELF CLEAN until the desired
time is reached. The clean time can be set between
2 hours 30 minutes and 4 hours 30 minutes.
2. Press START.
"LOCKING DOOR" will appear on the display as will the clean
time, start time and stop time. When the door locks, self-
clean will start and "OVEN IS CLEANING" then, "DOOR
LOCKED" will appear in the display.
The door will not unlock until the oven cools.
When the cycle is complete and the oven cools, "SELF
CLEAN COMPLETE" will appear in the oven display.
3. Press any pad or open the oven door to clear the oven
display.
To Delay Start Self-Clean:
Before delay starting Self-Clean, make sure the clock is set to the
correct time of day. See "Clock/Timer Display" section. Also,
make sure the door is closed completely or it will not lock and the
cycle will not begin.

When the start time is reached, "LOCKING DOOR" will
appear in the display. When the door locks, self-clean will
start and "OVEN IS CLEANING" then, "DOOR LOCKED" will
appear in the display.
The door will not unlock until the oven cools.
When the cycle is complete and the oven cools, "SELF

General Cleaning

IMPORTANT: Before cleaning, make sure all controls are off and
the oven and cooktop are cool. Always follow label instructions
on cleaning products. Soap, water and a soft cloth or sponge are
suggested first unless otherwise noted.
EXTERIOR PORCELAIN ENAMEL SURFACES

Gently clean around the model and serial number plate
because scrubbing may remove numbers.
