Care and Cleaning
Self Clean (Cont.)
if you want to stop the self clean cycle, touch the
CanCel · seCure key. Keep in mind that the oven door
will remain locked until it is safe enough to open. the lock
symbol will disappear from the display when the door lock
is released. you will still need to exercise caution when
the door lock is released because the inside of the oven
may still be hot.
after the self clean cycle is complete...
• the door latch will release when the inside has cooled
down. the clean icon, lock icon and “on“ will disap-
pear from the display. exercise caution because the
oven will still be hot (about 400°f) at the time the
door lock is released.
• Reinstall the convection filter and oven racks before
using your oven.
• you may notice a powder ash residue in the bottom of
the oven after self cleaning. this condition is normal.
use a damp cloth or sponge to wipe up the residue
after the oven cools down.
Self Cleaning Tips
• if any soil remains in the oven after the self clean
cycle is done, you may repeat the cycle if you want.
• self clean the oven regularly to prevent excessive soil
build-up. Doing so will make the self clean cycle work
better and reduce smoke and odors.
Setting the Oven to Self Clean at a Later
Time
1. prepare the oven for self cleaning as instructed on
page 25. observe all safety precautions and remove
all items listed from inside the oven. clean the door
gasket and around the door as instructed.
2. close the oven door.
3. touch the selF Clean key.
4. touch the start tIme key.
5. enter the desired start time. for example, touch 1-2-
3-0 for 12:30. you may enter a time up to 22 hours
and 59 minutes ahead of the present time.
6. touch start. when you touch start, “DelaY” will
appear on the display and the oven door will lock. the
oven will start to self clean at the time selected.
When the oven is set to clean at a later time...
• if you want to view the time, push the CloCK key.
• if the clock is displayed, you can push start tIme
to check when the self clean cycle will start.
• when the self clean cycle starts, “DelaY” will disap-
pear and “on” will appear on the display.
to cancel the time delayed self clean cycle...
• touch CanCel/seCure.
• if the self clean process has not started, allow about
a minute for the door to unlock before attempting to
use the oven.
• if the oven is in the middle of the self clean process,
the door will unlock when the oven has cooled down
enough to open safely. the oven will still be hot
(about 400 °f).
30 minute – Quick Steam Clean
the steam clean process is a quick, simple way to clean
light soil inside the oven. steam cleaning allows you to
save time and energy over the self clean process, which
should be used for heavier soil build up.
1. remove the oven racks and all utensils from the inside
of the oven.
2. pour 1 1/2 cups of water into the recessed portion of
the oven floor. For slightly heavier build up, you may
mix a teaspoon of hand dishwashing soap into the
water prior to pouring.
3. close the oven door and touch BaKe, then enter
1-8-5 (185°f) on the number keypad. touch start.
4. set the timer (see page “timers” on page 15) for
20 minutes.
5. after 20 minutes, touch CanCel · seCure.
6. wait 10 minutes before opening the door.
warning
The water remaining inside the oven will still be hot to the touch.
7. once you open the oven door, there will usually be
a considerable amount of steam, condensation and
some water inside.
8. using a soapy sponge, wipe down the inside of the
door window first. Then carefully sponge out the
remaining water from the inside of the oven.
9. scrub the inside of the oven with the soapy sponge
until grease and soil is remove from the surfaces
inside. Lime deposits can be removed with a cloth
soaked in vinegar.
10. make sure all surfaces are dry after cleaning by wiping
down the oven with paper towels. Leave the door
partially open to allow any left over condensation to
escape.
repeat the process any time soil begins to build up inside
the oven.
