RANGE CARE
How the Cycle Works
The heating and cooling of porcelain on steel in the oven may result in discoloring, loss of gloss, hairline cracks and
popping sounds. Before self-cleaning, make sure the door is completely closed or the door will not lock and the self-cleaning cycle will not begin. Once the oven has completely cooled, remove 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. To stop the self-cleaning cycle at anytime, press the CANCEL keypad. If the temperature is too high, the oven door will remain
locked and “cool” and “locked” will be displayed. The oven light will not function during the self-cleaning cycle.
Electronic Oven Control with Adjustable Clean Time (on some models)
The SELF CLEAN self-cleaning cycle is time adjustable between 2 hours 30 minutes and 4 hours 30 minutes in 15-minute increments. Suggested clean times are 2 hours 30 minutes for light soil, and 4 hours 30 minutes for heavy soil. The last 30 minutes of the cycle is for cool down.
To Self-Clean:
- Press SELF CLEAN.
- Press the TEMP/TIME “+” or “-” keypads to enter the desired self-clean cycle time.
- Press START. The oven door will automatically lock. The DOOR LOCKED and CLEAN indicator lights will be displayed. The time remaining will also be displayed.
- When the self-clean cycle is complete and the oven cools, the DOOR LOCKED and CLEAN indicator lights will turn off.
- When the oven is completely cooled, remove ash with a damp cloth.
