Cleaning and Maintenance Power Failure No attempt should be made to operate the appliance during a power failure. Make sure the oven control is in the "OFF" position. Momentary power failure can occur unnoticed. The range is affected only when the power is interrupted. When it comes back on, the range will function properly without any adjustments. A "brown-out" may or may not affect range operation, depending on how severe the power loss is. If the range is in the self-clean cycle when the power failure occurs, wait until power is restored and allow door to unlock automatically. Turn all controls off and restart self-clean cycle again, according to instructions. Replacing the Oven Lights WARNING ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD Disconnect the electric power at the main fuse or circuit breaker befor replacing the bulb. To avoid risk of personal injury, DO NOT touch the light bulb with bare hands. Clean off any signs of oil from the bulb and handle with a soft cloth. access groove light bulb glass light cover 1. Unsnap glass light cover using a screwdriver in the access groove. 2. Firmly grasp light bulb and pull out. 3. Replace with halogen bulb using volt and wattage requirements listed on glass cover. 4. Replace the light cover by snapping glass cover onto metal box. 5. Reconnect power at the main fuse or circuit breaker. Self-Clean Cycle WARNING ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD This range features a self-cleaning cycle. During this cycle, the oven reaches elevated temperatures in order to burn off soil and deposits. A powder ash residue is left in the bottom of the oven after completion of the self-clean cycle. NOTE: DO NOT use commercial oven cleaners inside the oven. Use of these cleaners can produce hazardous fumes or can damage the porcelain finishes. DO NOT line the oven with aluminum foil or other materials. These items can melt or burn during a self-clean cycle, causing permanent damage to the oven. CAUTION DO NOT touch the exterior portions of the oven after self-cleaning cycle has begun, since some parts become extremely hot to the touch! During the first few times the self-cleaning feature is used, there may be some odor and smoking from the "curing" of the binder in the high-density insulation used in the oven. When the insulation is thoroughly cured, this odor will disappear. During subsequent self-cleaning cycles, you may sense an odor characteristic of high temperatures. KEEP THE KITCHEN WELL-VENTED DURING THE SELFCLEAN CYCLE. This oven features an automatic pyrolytic self-cleaning cycle. During this cycle, the oven reaches elevated temperatures in order to burn off soil and deposits. An integral smoke eliminator helps reduce odors associated with the soil burn-off. A powder ash residue is left in the bottom of the oven after completion of the self-clean cycle. The door latch is automatically activated after selecting the self-clean setting. The latch ensures that the door cannot be opened while the oven interior is at clean temperatures. Before starting the Self-Clean cycle: 1. Remove the oven racks, and any other items/utensils from the oven. The high heat generated during the cleaning cycle can discolor, warp, and damage these items. DO NOT use foil or liners in the oven. During the self-clean cycle foil can burn or melt and damage the oven surface. 2. Wipe off any large spills from the oven bottom and sides. NEVER use oven cleaners inside a self-cleaning oven or on raised portions of the door. 3. Some areas of the oven must be cleaned by hand before the cycle begins. Soils in these areas will be baked on and very difficult to clean if not removed first. Clean the door up to the gasket, the door frame, and up to 2 inches inside the frame with detergent and hot water. Rinse thoroughly and dry. 23
