Setting Oven Controls 31 Fresh Clean A fresh cleaning oven automatically cleans itself by using much higher temperatures than those used for baking. The fresh clean feature eliminates soils completely or reduces them to a fine powdered ash that, when the oven has cooled, can be wiped away easily with a damp cloth. The fresh clean function provides three different clean time settings for fresh clean. Set clean for 2 hours for light, 3 hours for normal, or 4 hours for heavier soils. Before starting fresh clean: Do not leave small children unattended near the appliance. During the fresh clean cycle, the outside of the oven can become very hot to touch and can cause burns. Do not force the oven door open when fresh clean is active. This can damage the automatic door-locking system. Use caution when opening the door after fresh cleaning. The oven may still be very hot and can cause burns. To avoid possible burns, stand to one side of the oven when opening the oven door to allow hot air or steam to escape. • Do not clean the oven door gasket (Figure 30). The woven material of the oven door gasket is essential for a good seal. Care should be taken not to rub, damage, or remove the gasket. Do not use any cleaning materials on the oven door gasket. Doing so could cause damage to the door gasket. • Do not use oven cleaners or oven protective coatings in or around any part of the oven interior. Residue from oven cleaners may damage the porcelain during the next selfclean cycle. • Clean any soil from the oven frame, the door liner outside the oven door gasket and the small area at the front center of the oven bottom (Figure 30). These areas heat sufficiently to burn soil on. Clean using soap and water prior to starting fresh clean. IMPORTANT! The Luxury Glide™ oven rack must be removed before starting fresh clean to avoid damaging the glide ability of the rack. REMOVE RACKS will flash in the display for several seconds as a reminder to remove the racks before starting a fresh clean cycle (Figure 29). The health of some birds is extremely sensitive to the fumes given off during the fresh clean cycle of any range. Move birds to another well-ventilated room. Figure 29: Remove racks indicator Do not line the oven walls, oven racks, oven bottom or any other part of the range with aluminum foil. Doing so will stop heat distribution, produce poor baking results, and may cause permanent damage to the oven interior. Aluminum foil will melt to a hot oven surface during fresh clean. The oven bake and broil elements may appear to have cooled after they have been turned off. The elements may still be hot and burns may occur if these elements are touched before they have cooled. • Remove all items from the oven including bakeware, utensils, accessories, and any aluminum foil. Aluminum foil will not withstand high temperatures from a fresh clean cycle and will melt. • Remove all oven racks from the oven interior to avoid possible damage. If the oven racks are not removed they may discolor. • Remove any excessive build up caused by spills. Any spill on the oven bottom should be wiped up and removed before starting a fresh clean cycle. To clean, use hot, soapy water and a cloth. Large spill residue can cause heavy smoke or fire when subjected to high temperatures. Do not allow food spills with a high sugar or acid content (such as milk, tomatoes, sauerkraut, fruit juices, or pie filling) to remain on the surface as they may leave a dull spot even after cleaning.
