Setting Self Clean To set self clean: 1. Be sure the oven is empty and all oven racks are removed. Remove all items from the oven. Be sure oven door is completely closed. 2. Press self clean and the default 3 hour clean time will appear in the display. You may accept the default 3 hour clean time or choose a different clean time by pressing the self clean key to toggle between 2, 3, and 4 hours clean time. Once you have the desired clean time selected proceed to Step 3. 3. Press start to activate self clean. When the oven is set to run a self-clean cycle, the motor door lock will begin locking the oven door. Do not open the oven door while the lock motor is running or when any locking indicators or displays are showing. The oven door is completely locked in about 15 seconds. Once the oven door has locked, CLEAN will appear in the display indicating self clean has started. Do not force the oven door open when self-clean is active. This can damage the automatic door-locking system. Use caution when opening the door after self-clean cycle is complete; the oven may still be very hot. When self clean is finished: 1. CLEAN message will turn off, and Hot will appear in display window. 2. Once the oven has cooled down (about 1 hour) and Hot is no longer displayed, the oven door may be opened. 3. When the oven interior has completely cooled, wipe away any residue or powdered ash with a damp cloth or paper towel. CAUTION To avoid possible burns, 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 steam and air to escape. OVEN CONTROLS Setting Delay Start Self Clean To start a delay self clean with default clean time of 3 hours and a start time of 9:00 o'clock: 1. Be sure the clock is set with the correct time of day, the oven is empty, and all oven racks are removed. Be sure oven door is completely closed. 2. Press delay start. 3. Using numeric keypad, enter 9 0 0. 4. Press start to accept 5. Press self clean. 6. Press start. If it becomes necessary to stop self clean when active: 1. Press off. 2. If self clean has heated the oven to a high temperature, allow enough time for the oven to cool. 3. Before restarting self clean, be sure to read important notes below. Important note: • If your clock is set with the (default) 12 hr display mode, the delay start for a self clean can only be programmed to start up to 11 hours and 59 minutes after the time showing in the display (be sure to set the clock to current time before programming a delay start). To set a delay start self clean to begin 12 or more hours (maximum is 23 hours and 59 minutes) after the time of setting, be sure to first set the control in the 24 Hr display mode. • If self clean was active and then interrupted by a power failure or cancelled before the oven was thoroughly cleaned, it may be necessary to run another self clean cycle. • If the oven temperature was high enough when self clean was interrupted the oven control may not allow another self clean cycle to be set for up to 4 hours. 35
