Self-Cleaning 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 self-cleaning cycle. 4. Tap Start. Note: The upper and lower ovens CANNOT be selfcleaned at the same time. During the self-clean cycle, the oven heats to an extremely high temperature in order to allow food soil to burn off. To initiate a self-clean cycle: 1. Make sure the cook cavity is empty and remove the oven rack. Note: Failure to remove the oven rack will cause the rack to discolor. 2. Remove large particles and wipe standing liquids/grease. Note: Failure to remove large food particles and wipe the oven down may result in smoke while the oven is self-cleaning. Removing the lower jetplate and cleaning beneath it prior to performing a selfclean cycle (Speedcook Oven ONLY) is recommended. 3. From the Advanced screen under Settings, select Self-Clean. Then choose Self-clean Speedcook Oven or Self-clean Lower Oven. CAUTION During the self-clean cycle, the oven door is locked and the oven surfaces can become very hot. 5. To immediately terminate a self-clean cycle, tap Cancel. Product Care 6. When the cleaning cycle is complete and the oven has returned to a safe temperature, the screen displays a message and the oven sounds a tone and powers down. 49
