CARE AND CLEANING 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. ■■ Heavy soil accumulations may require multiple cleaning cycles. ■■ The oven is preset for a 3 hour 30 minute Self-Cleaning cycle. The oven will cool for an additional 30 minutes after cleaning is completed. To Use Self-Clean: Turn the Mode and Temperature Knobs to the Clean position. The knob indicator lights will illuminate to show that a selection has been made. The Start button indicator light will blink to prompt for action. Press the Start button to begin the cleaning cycle. The door(s) will lock. NOTE: The oven will cool for an additional 30 minutes after cleaning is completed. To Start Self-Clean: 1. Turn the Mode Knob to the Clean position. 2. Turn the Temperature Knob to the Clean position. 3. Press the Start Button. NOTE: All operations must be completed within 30 seconds or the unit will return to Idle Mode. REMEMBER: When range is in use or during the SelfCleaning cycle, the entire cooktop area may become hot. To Stop Self-Clean Any Time: Move the Temperature Knob to OFF position to stop self-clean. If the oven temperature is too high, the door will remain locked. It will not unlock until the oven cools. Once the oven has completely cooled: ■■ Remove ash with a damp cloth. ■■ If soil remains after wiping, that means the length of the SelfCleaning cycle was not long enough for the amount of soil in the oven. Repeat the Self-Cleaning cycle if desired or the soil will be removed during the next Self-Cleaning cycle. ■■ 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 light during the Self-Cleaning cycle. ■■ On 48" (121.9 cm) ranges, 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 dual speed cooling fan motor. During selfcleaning, the fan(s) will operate at their highest speed to increase airflow to better exhaust the hotter air through the oven vent(s). An increase of noise may be noticeable during and after the SelfCleaning cycle until the oven cools. 28
