What Happens During the Self-Clean Cycle?
After the controls have been set on a non-delayed cycle, or after the delayed time has run
out on a delayed cycle:
• The Clean and Oven Lights will glow to tell you the oven is slowly heating to the clean tem¬
perature, and "AUTO" will appear continuously in the Display Window.
• The Lock Light will come on when the temperature reaches 575-600°F (approximately
15 minutes).
At the End of the Cleaning Cycle
• The Oven Light will go out.
• The Clean Light will go off.
• The Lock Light will continue to glow until the oven temperature drops below 550°F. The
oven door cannot be opened until Lock Light goes out.
• After a clean cycle, any powdery residue can be wiped away with a damp cloth. If white
spots remain in the oven after a clean cycle, remove them with a non-scratch scouring
pad before using the oven again. These spots are usually salt residues that cannot be re¬
moved during the Self-Clean cycle.
• If the soil removal was not complete, increase the length of the clean time in the next
cycle.
To Interrupt Cleaning Cycle:
1. Touch the STOP/CANCEL button twice. A tone will sound each time and the clock will
return to the present time of day.
2. Slide Oven Lock Lever all the way to the left. NOTE: If Lock Light has come on, wait until
oven cools and light goes off.
3. Turn Selector to OFF.
To Return Oven to Regular (Ise After a Self-Clean Cycle:
1. Slide the Oven Lock Lever all the way to the left.
2. Turn the Selector to OFF.
3. Allow oven to cool sufficiently before wiping up any residue.
OVEN SELF-CLEANING TIPS
• Evening is a good time to clean the oven, after normal oven use is completed.
• Small amounts of smoke escaping from the oven vent are normal when oven is heavily
soiled. Excessive smoke may indicate heavy spillovers have not been wiped up.
• Do not force the Oven Lock Lever open when the Lock Light is on. Damage to the lock
mechanism may result.
• Clean both ovens regularly, before they become "excessively dirty." If oven is not clean
after one cycle, repeat cleaning cycle.
