CARE AND CLEANING: Cleaning the Range – Interior
Cleaning the Range – Interior
The interior of your new oven can be cleaned manually or by using Steam Clean or Self Clean modes.
Spillage of marinades, fruit juices, tomato sauces and basting liquids containing acids may cause discoloration and
should be wiped up immediately. Let hot surfaces cool, then clean and rinse.

liquid cleansers, steel wool, scouring pads, or cleaning
powders on the interior of the oven. Clean with a mild
soap and water or vinegar and water solution. Rinse with
clean water and dry with a soft cloth. When cleaning
surfaces, make sure that they are at room temperature.
Steam Clean Mode
Steam clean is intended to clean small spills using water
and a lower cleaning temperature than Self-Clean.
To use the Steam Clean feature, wipe grease and soils
from the oven. Pour one cup of water into the bottom of
the oven. Close the door.
Press the Steam Clean pad and then press Start. You
can not open the door during the 30 minute steam clean
as this will decrease the steam clean performance. Wipe
out any excess water and any remaining soil.
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.
Before operating the self-clean cycle, wipe up grease
and 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.
Press the Self Clean pad and a default self-clean time
is displayed. The clean time can be changed to any
time between 3:00 and 5:00 hours by using the number
pads to enter a different time and pressing Start. For
heavily soiled ovens, the maximum 5 hour clean time is
recommended. If you wish to use the default time, press
the Start pad immediately after pressing the Self Clean
pad. 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 range 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 cleansers such as Soft Scrub
®
. Rinse well with
clean water and dry.

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.

turned on.
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.
