Cleaning The Oven - Interior (cont.)
Self Clean Mode
Read Self-Cleaning Oven Safety Instructions at the
beginning of this manual before using Self Clean Mode.
Self clean uses very high temperatures to clean the oven
interior. The oven door will lock when using this feature.

soils from the oven. Remove all items from the oven other
than enameled (dark color) racks. Shiny or silver racks,
the meat probe, and any cookware or other items should
all be removed from the oven before initiating a self clean
cycle. Close the door. If using a double oven, select which
oven you would like to clean. Select the More option, then
Self Clean. Choose a 3, 4, or 5 hour cycle, and select
the illuminated Start pad to the right of the screen. For
heavily soiled ovens, the maximum 5 hour clean time is
recommended. If you wish to use the default time, press
Start immediately after selecting Self Clean. The oven
will show that the door has locked and display the amount
of time remaining in the cycle. Press the illuminated
Cancel pad to the right of the screen if you wish to stop
the cycle. The oven will turn off automatically when the
self clean cycle is complete. The door will stay locked
until the oven has cooled down. After the oven has cooled
down wipe any ash out of the oven.
We recommend venting your kitchen with an open
window or using a ventilation fan or hood during the first
self-clean cycle.
Soil on the front frame of the oven and outside the
gasket on the door will need to be cleaned by hand.
Clean these areas with hot water, soap-filled steel wool
pads or cleaners such as Soft Scrub
®
. Rinse well with
clean water and dry.
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.
Make sure the oven light bulb cover is in place and the
oven light is off. When using the Self Clean Mode in a

the cycle at one time. Additionally, no other mode may
be started in the alternate oven cavity while self clean is
in progress.
IMPORTANT: The health of some birds is extremely
sensitive to the fumes given off during the self-cleaning
cycle of any range. Move birds to another well-ventilated
room.
Probe
The temperature probe may be cleaned with soap and
water or a soap-filled scouring pad. Cool the temperature
probe before cleaning. Scour stubborn spots with a soap-
filled scouring pad, rinse and dry.
To order additional temperature probes see the
Accessories and Consumer Support sections at the end of
this manual.
Ŷ Do not immerse the temperature probe in water.
Ŷ Do not store the temperature probe in the oven.
Ŷ Do not leave the temperature probe inside the oven
during a self or steam clean cycle.

oven at the main fuse or circuit breaker panel. Failure to do so may result in electric shock or burn.
CAUTION
BURN HAZARD: The glass cover and bulb should be removed when cool. Touching hot glass with
bare hands or a damp cloth can cause burns.
1. Disconnect power at the main fuse or circuit breaker
panel.
2. Remove oven racks.
3. Slide a flat blade screwdriver or butter knife between
the metal housing and the glass light cover.
NOTE: on some models there is a metal clip visibly
holding the glass. The tool needs inserted between
the metal housing and the clip holding the glass.

the cover from falling to the bottom of the oven.
