Self-Cleaning
Cycle
Flex Clean
Cycle
The FLEX CLEAN pad controls the Self-Cleaning
feature.
When used with a the Delay Start pad, a delayed Self-
Cleaning
cycle may also be programmed.
The Flex Clean
feature
allows for any Self-Cleaning
cycle time from 2
(2:00) to 4 hours (4:00).
You may also choose the clean time
in 1 minute increments
(for example
2 hours and 50 minutes)
by pressing the corresponding
number
keypads.
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.
_lt 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).
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.
See example
below
to start
an immediate
Self-Cleaning
cycle
or to set a Delay
Start
time
of 9:00
o'clock

a 3 hour
period
(default
self-cleaning
cycle
time).
Note:
If a 2 or 4 hour
clean time isdesired, press 2 0 0 for 2 hour or press 4 0
0 for a 4 hour
clean
time.
Set the cleaning
time
based
on the amount
of soil:
light,
medium
or heavy
(€See
above).
Press START.
As soon as the control
is set, the motor
driven oven door
loci< will begin to close automatically.
Once the door
has been locked the "DOOR
LOCKED"
indicator
light
will stop flashing

forward
from
the set start
time
to determine
when
the Self-Cleaning
cycle
should
end.
The Self-Cleaning
cycle
will turn
on automatically
at the
set time.
° 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.
When the Self=Clean Cycle is Completed
Once the oven has cooled
down for approximately
1 HOUR,
and the "DOOR
LOCKED"
icon is no longer displayed,
the
oven door can then be opened.
Stopping or Inferrupflng
a Self=Cleanlng
Cycle
If it becomes
necessary
to stop or interrupt a self-cleaning
cycle due to
excessive
smoke or fire in the oven:
1.
Press STOP.
2.
Once the oven has cooled
down for approximately
1
HOUR, and the "DOOR
LOCKED"
icon is no longer
displayed,
the oven door can then be opened.
NOTE
A smoke eliminator
in the oven vent converts most of the
smoke into a colorless vapor.
If a self-clean
cycle
was
started
but did
not finish
due to a
power
failure,
your
oven
may
not be completely
cleaned.
After
power
has been
restored
and
the oven door
has
unlocked,
set for
another
self-clean
