Self-Cleaning Cycle

WARNING

Burn Hazard

• Do not touch the oven during the Self-Cleaning cycle.
• Keep children away from the oven during the Self-Cleaning cycle.
• Failure to follow these instructions can result in burns.

IMPORTANT:
The health of some birds is extremely sensitive to the fumes given off during the Self-Cleaning cycle. Exposure to the fumes may result in the death of certain birds. Always move birds to another closed and well-ventilated room.

• Self-clean the oven before it becomes heavily soiled. Heavy soil results in longer cleaning and more smoke.
• Keep the kitchen well-ventilated during the Self-Cleaning cycle to help get rid of heat, odors, and smoke.
• Do not block the oven vent(s) during the Self-Cleaning cycle. Air must be able to move freely. See the “Oven Vents” section in the Quick Start Guide.
• Do not clean, rub, damage, or move the oven door gasket. The door gasket is essential for a good seal.

Prepare Oven

• Remove the broiler pan, grid, cookware, and bakeware, and, on some models, the temperature probe from the oven.
• Remove oven racks to keep them shiny and easy to slide. See the “General Cleaning” section for more information.
• Remove any foil from the oven because it may burn or melt, damaging the oven.
• Hand clean the inside door edge and the 11/2″ (3.8 cm) area around the inside oven cavity frame, being certain not to move or bend the gasket. This area does not get hot enough during self-cleaning to remove soil. Do not let water, cleaner, etc., enter slots on the door frame. Use a damp cloth to clean this area.
• Wipe out any loose soil to reduce smoke and avoid damage. At high temperatures, foods react with porcelain. Staining, etching, pitting, or faint white spots can result. This is normal and will not affect cooking performance.

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.
• Suggested clean times are 3 hours for light soil, 4 hours for medium soil, and 5 hoincludingincludingludes a 30-minute cool-down time).
• Once the oven has completely cooled, remove the ash with a damp cloth. To avoid breaking the glass, do not apply a cool damp cloth to the inner door glass before it has completely cooled.
• The oven lights will not work during the Self-Cleaning cycle.
• On double-oven models, only one oven can self-clean at a time. If one oven is self-cleaning, the other oven cannot be set or turned on.

NOTE:
The oven has a two-speed cooling fan motor. During the Self-Cleaning cycle, the fan(s) will operate at its highest speed to increase airflow to better exhaust the hotter air through the oven vent(s). An increase in noise may be noticeable during and after the Self-Cleaning cycle until the oven cools.

To Start Self-Cleaning
Before Self-Cleaning, make sure the door is closed completely or it will not lock and the cycle will not begin. When the oven is locked, the doors of the oven cannot be opened. To avoid damage to the doors, do not force the doors open when the oven is locked.

1. Touch the Tools keypad.

2. Select the Self Clean icon.
   (On double-oven models): Select Upper Cavity or Lower Cavity.

3. Select type of Self-Cleaning:

   • Steam: 1 hour: Clean up after everyday light spills using lower heat and 11/4 cups (295.74 mL) of water.
   • High temp: 4 hours: 3 hour cycle and 1 hour cooling.
   • High temp: 5 hours: 4 hour cycle and 1 hour cooling.
   • High temp: 6 hours: 5 hour cycle and 1 hour cooling.

4. Follow the prompts on the oven display to prepare the oven.

5. Select START to begin the cleaning process.
   OR

   • Select DELAY START to set a delayed Self-Cleaning cycle. See the “To Delay Start Self-Cleaning Cycle” Section.
   • The oven doors will automatically lock.
   • NOTE: It may take a couple of moments for the oven door to automatically lock after starting the Self-Clean Cycle.
   • When the self-cleaning cycle is complete and the oven cools, the oven doors will unlock.

6. When the oven is completely cooled, remove the ash with a damp cloth.

To Delay Start of Self-Cleaning

Follow steps 1 through 4 above, then:

1. Select DELAY STARTor DELAY.
2. Select the start time of when the Self-Cleaning cycle should begin by scrolling from left to right.
3. Select START DELAY.
   • The oven doors will automatically lock after the Delay Start countdown.
   • When the Self-Cleaning cycle is complete and the oven cools, the oven doors will unlock.
4. When the oven is completely cooled, remove the ash with a damp cloth.

To Stop Self-Cleaning anytime
Touch the Oven Cancel Keypad for single oven models, or the keypads for double oven models. If the oven temperature is too high, the door will remain locked. It will not unlock until the oven cools.

Steam Clean (on some models)

• The Steam Clean feature is designed for light oven cavity bottom cleaning on models that have hidden bake in the oven.
• Do not use oven cleaners.
• Allow the oven to cool to room temperature before using the Steam Clean feature. If your oven cavity is above 200°F (93°C), the Steam Clean feature will not activate until it cools down.
• Remove all racks and accessories from the oven cavity.
• For best results, use 10 oz (295.7 mL) of distilled or filtered water.
• The Steam Clean feature will take approximately 1 hour. A tone will sound at the end of the cycle.
• IMPORTANT: Because the water in the oven bottom is hot, do not open the oven door during the Steam Clean cycle.
• Touch the Oven Cancel keypad for single oven models and the Upper/Lower keypads for double oven models at any time to end the cycle. The display will return to the time of day.

Helpful Hints

• Once the Steam Clean cycle is complete and the oven is completely cooled, remove all remaining water in the bottom of the oven with a sponge or cloth.
• Wipe any remaining moisture from the oven door interior, oven cavity interior sides, and cooktop.
• Use a soft brush or nylon scrubber to wipe the oven interior. This may help with more stubborn stains.
• It is recommended to use distilled or filtered water, as tap water may leave mineral deposits on the oven bottom. Use a cloth soaked with vinegar or lemon juice to remove any mineral deposits that may be left after the Steam Clean cycle.
• If the oven is heavily soiled, use the Self-Cleaning cycle. The Steam Clean cycle may be used first to eliminate most of the debris, resulting in a more effective self-cleaning.

To Steam Clean:

1. Open the oven door of the selected oven and remove all racks and accessories from the oven cavity.

2. Pour 10 oz (295.7 mL) of distilled or filtered water into the oven bottom. Then close the oven door.
