46 MAINTENANCE Self Clean (For Model : LSE4615 / LSE4613) The Self Clean cycle uses extremely hot temperatures to clean the oven cavity. While running the Self Clean cycle, you may notice smoking or an odor. This is normal; especially if the oven is heavily soiled. During Self Clean, the kitchen should be well ventilated to minimize the odors from cleaning. Before Starting Self Clean •• Remove the oven racks, broiler pan, broiler grid, all cookware, aluminum foil or any other material from the oven. •• The kitchen should be well ventilated to minimize the odors from cleaning. •• Wipe any heavy spillovers on the bottom of the oven. •• Make sure that the oven light bulb cover is in place and the oven light is off. •• The oven light cannot be turned on during a Self Clean cycle. The oven light cannot be turned on until the oven temperature has cooled below 500 ˚F (260 ˚C) after a Self Clean cycle is complete. CAUTION •• Do not leave small children unattended near the appliance. During the Self Clean cycle, the outside of the range can become very hot to the touch. •• If you have pet birds, move them to another well-ventilated room. The health of some birds is extremely sensitive to the fumes given off during the Self Clean 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 Clean 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. During the Self Clean cycle, the cooktop elements and warming drawer cannot be used. NOTE •• Remove oven racks and accessories before starting the Self Clean cycle. •• 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 that the oven light bulb cover is in place and the oven light is off. •• It is normal for the fan to operate during the Self Clean cycle. •• The Burner On indicator light turns on when the knob is turned even if the cooktop element does not operate. Setting Self Clean The Self Clean function has cycle times of 3, 4, or 5 hours.
