LARGE GAS MAIN OVEN
The self-cleaning mode of your new range features
pyrolytic self-cleaning. When set to the CLEAN
mode, the oven reaches a high temperature,
approximately 830
° F, that burns off the food soil.
When the oven is set for CLEAN, the cooktop burners
and electric griddle may be used. The secondary
oven (48" models), the griddle and/or the grill cannot
be used.
It is common to see smoke and/or flames during
the CLEAN cycle, depending on the content and
amount of soil remaining in the oven. If a flame
persists, turn off the oven and allow it to cool before
opening the door to wipe up the excessive food soil.
At the end of the CLEAN cycle, some gray ash or
burned residue may remain inside the oven. This is
a mineral deposit that does not burn or melt. The
amount of ash depends on how heavily soiled the
oven was before it was cleaned. It is easily removed,
when the oven is cold, using a damp paper towel,
sponge, or cloth.
Wipe off any smoke residue that remains on the front
frame with Formula409
® or Fantastik ® . If stainremains,
use a mild liquid cleanser. The amount of smoke
stain is directly related to the amount of food soil left
in the oven at the time of self-cleaning. Clean the oven
often.
LOCK
When the CLEAN cycle starts, the automatic door
lock cycle begins. The temperature gauge begins
to move to CLEAN five minutes after the clean
mode is initiated. Check the door to confirm that it
is locked. You can stop the clean cycle by selecting
the OFF position. The light will turn off
only after the oven has cooled below 500 ° F, and the
automatic door lock has completed its cycle to the
open position.
Make certain that the oven door is locked at the
beginning of the self-cleaning cycle.
Self-Cleaning the Oven
SECTION SIX: CARE AND MAINTENANCE
If another clean cycle is initiated at the end of a clean
cycle and the temperature of the oven is still above
500
° , the LED will start blinking to indicate the range
has not completely cooled down after the first cycle.
The oven cannot be used until the oven temperature
drops below 500
° and the door is unlocked.
BEFORE SELF CLEANING THE OVEN
Wipe out puddles of grease and any loose soil that can
be easily removed.
Remove any soil that is outside the door seal area.
This appliance is designed to clean the oven interior
and that portion of the door that is inside the oven. The
outer edges of the door and the oven cavity are not in
the cleaning zone. Wipe this area clean
BEFORE
SETTING THE OVEN TO SELF-CLEAN.
• Remove all utensils.
• Remove Racks.
• Clean the oven front frame and outer door
edges. Wipe up large spillovers and
grease.
IMPORTANT: For the first
Self-Cleaning cycle, remove
small animals and birds from
the kitchen and surrounding
areas. Open a nearby
window
for additional
ventilation.
• Be sure the light bulbs and glass covers
are in place.
• Turn on the ventilator hood above the
range and leave it on until the oven has
completed the self-clean cycle.
CLEANING
Warning

-
• Children should not be left alone or unattended
in an area where appliances are in use.
• During the self-clean cycle, exterior surfaces may
become hotter than usual. Parts of the appliance
may become potentially harmful to children, and
to persons who lack adult knowledge of appli-
ances and lack adult reactions to potentially
harmful conditions. Keep these individuals away
during self-clean and while the appliance is in
use.
• The elimination of soil during self-cleaning process
may facilitate the emission of small amounts of
chemicals or other substances that may be harm-
ful upon sufficient exposure. To minimize expo-
sure to these substances, provide good ventila-
tion with an open window, or use a ventilation fan
or hood.
• Keep pet birds out of the kitchen or other rooms
where kitchen fumes could reach them. During
self clean, fumes are released that may be harm-
ful to birds.
