Care and Maintenance

Self-Cleaning the Main Oven

Main Oven

The self-cleaning mode of the large convection oven in

your new range features pyrolytic self-cleaning. When set

to the CLEAN mode, the oven reaches a high temperature,

approximately 850°F (455°C), that burns off the food soil.

When the oven is set for CLEAN, the Standard cooktop

STAR

burners, the electric griddle and grill, and the

warming drawer may be used. The steam oven and the

outer STAR burners, having the ExtraLow

feature, cannot

be used.

It is common to see smoke and/or flames during the

clean cycle, depending on the content and amount of soil

remaining in the oven. If a flame persists, turn off the oven

and allow it to cool before opening the door to wipe up the

excessive food soil.

At the end of the CLEAN cycle, some gray ash or burned

residue may remain inside the oven. This is a mineral

deposit that does not burn or melt. The amount of ash

depends on how heavily soiled the oven was before it was

cleaned. When the oven is cold, it is easily removed using

a damp paper towel, sponge, or cloth.

Wipe off any smoke residue that remains on the front frame

with Fantastik

. If stain remains, use a mild liquid cleanser.

The amount of smoke stain is directly related to the amount

of food soil left in the oven at the time of self-cleaning.

Clean the oven often.

Before Self-Cleaning the Oven

Wipe out puddles of grease and any loose soil that can be

easily removed. Remove any soil that is outside the door

seal area. This appliance is designed to clean the oven

interior and the portion of the door that is inside the oven.

The outer edges of the door and the frame surrounding the

front of the oven are not in the cleaning zone. Wipe this

area clean.

BEFORE SETTING THE OVEN TO SELF-CLEAN.

• Remove all utensils.

• Remove racks.

• Clean the oven front frame and outer door edges. Wipe

up large spillovers and grease.

• Be careful not to rub the oven gasket while wiping.

• Be sure the light bulbs and glass covers are in place.

• Turn on the ventilator hood above the range and leave

it on until the oven has completed the Self-Clean cycle.

IMPORTANT:

For the first Self-Cleaning cycle of your new range, remove

small animals and birds from the kitchen and surrounding

areas. Open a nearby window for additional ventilation.

Lock

When the CLEAN cycle starts, the automatic door lock

cycle begins. The temperature gauge begins to move to

CLEAN five minutes after the clean mode is initiated.

Check the door to confirm that it is locked. You can stop the

clean cycle by selecting the OFF position.

Make certain that the oven door is locked at the

beginning of the cleaning cycle.

Prevention of Successive Self-Clean Cycles

The ovens are programmed to prevent initiation of a

second Self-Clean cycle for a period of 24 hours. All of the

other functions are available immediately after completion

of Self-Clean.

WARNING!

• Children should not be left alone or unattended in an

area where appliances are in use.

• During the Self-Clean cycle, exterior surfaces may

become hotter than usual. Parts of the appliance

may become potentially harmful to children, and to

persons who lack adult knowledge of appliances and

lack adult reactions to potentially harmful conditions.

Keep these individuals away during self-clean and

while the appliance is in use.

• The elimination of soil during self-cleaning may

facilitate the emission of small amounts of chemicals

or other substances that may be harmful upon

sufficient exposure. To minimize exposure to these

substances, provide good ventilation with an open

window, or use a ventilation fan or hood.

• Keep pet birds out of the kitchen or other rooms

where kitchen fumes could reach them. During self-

clean, fumes are released that may be harmful to

birds.
