be possible to open the oven doors or use
the cooktop until the temperature drops
below the lock temperature and LOCKED/
DOOR _ goes off in the control display.
When LOCKED/DOOR_ goes off, you will
be able to open the doors.
After a Clean Cycle
You may notice some white ash in the
oven. Wipe it up with a damp cloth after
the oven cools.
If white spots remain, remove them with
a soap-filled steel wool pad and rinse
thoroughly with a vinegar and water
mixture.
These deposits are usually a salt residue
that cannot be removed by the clean cycle.
If the oven is not clean after one clean
cycle, repeat the cycle.

countdown, touch the SELFCLEAN pad.
If the racks become hard to slide, apply
