OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS SELF CLEAN (For both the Upper & Lower oven) The self clean cycle uses above normal cooking temperatures to clean the oven cavity. You may see some smoke and smell an odor the first few times the oven is cleaned. This is normal and will lessen in time. Smoke may also occur if the oven is heavily soiled. During self clean, the kitchen should be well ventilated to minimize the odors from cleaning. The UPPER & LOWER SELF CLEAN cannot be operated simultaneously. CAUTION • DO NOT leave small children unattended near the appliance. - During the self cleaning cycle, the outside of the range can become very hot to touch. • Move Birds to another well-ventilated room. - The health of some birds is extremely sensitive to the fumes given off during the Self Cleaning cycle of any range. • DO NOT line the oven walls, racks, bottom or any other part of the range with aluminum foil or any other material. - Doing so will destroy heat distribution, produce poor baking results and cause permanent damage to the oven interior (aluminum foil will melt to the interior surface of the oven). • DO NOT force the door open. - This can damage the automatic door locking system. Use care when opening the oven door after the Self Cleaning cycle. Stand to the side of the oven when opening the door to allow hot air or steam to escape. The oven may still be VERY HOT. Before a Self Clean Cycle We recommend venting your kitchen with an open window or using a ventilation fan or hood during the first self clean cycle. Remove the oven racks, broiler pan, broiler grid, all cookware, and aluminum foil or any other material from the oven. NOTE: It is normal for smoke to occur during self clean. Make sure the room is well ventilated before running a self clean cycle. CAUTION • The oven broil element may appear to have cooled after it has been turned OFF. The element may still be hot and burn may occur if this element is touched before it has cooled sufficiently. During a self clean cycle in either the upper or lower oven the cooktop elements can not be used. If running a self clean in one of the ovens the other oven can not be used.Self clean can only be run in one oven at a time. NOTE: Remove oven Don't hand racks and clean oven accessories before door gasket starting the self clean cycle. Remove any debris from door • If oven racks are left in the oven cavity during the self clean cycle, they will discolor and become difficult to slide in and out. • Clean the frame of the oven and door with hot soapy water. Rinse well. • Do not clean the gasket. The fiberglass material of the oven door gasket cannot withstand abrasion. It is essential for the gasket to remain intact. If you notice it becoming worn or frayed, replace it. • Wipe up any heavy spillovers on the oven bottom. • Make sure the oven light bulb cover is in place and the oven light is off. 34
