OVEN CONTROLS
Self Cleaning Operation
A self cleaning oven cleans itself with high temperatures
(well above normal cooking temperatures) which eliminate
soils completely or reduces them to a fine powdered ash
you can wipe away with a damp cloth.
What to expect during cleaning:
While the oven is in operation sounds of metal expansion
and contraction are normal. Odor is also normal as the food
soil is being removed. Smoke may appear through the oven
vent. If heavy spills are not wiped up before cleaning, they
may flame and cause more smoke and odor than usual.
This is normal and safe and should not cause alarm. If
available, use an exhaust fan during the self cleaning cycle.
When opening the oven after self clean cycle stand to
side to allow heat to escape and avoid possible burns.
In self clean the outside of the range can be very hot. Do
not leave small children unattended near the oven.
Some birds are extremely sensitive to fumes given off by
the self clean cycle. Move birds to a well ventilated room.
Do not line the oven walls, racks, bottom or any part of
the range with aluminum foil. This ruins heat distribution,
produces poor baking results, and causes permanent
damage to the oven interior.
Do not force the oven door open. This can damage the
automatic door locking system. Wait until the self clean
cycle is finished and the door fully unlocks.
Figure 17: Areas to hand clean and areas to avoid
CAUTION
• Do not use oven cleaners or oven protective coatings
in or around any part of the oven interior.
• Do not clean the oven door gasket. The woven
material of the oven door gasket is essential for a
good seal.Be careful not to rub, damage or remove
the gasket. Do not use any cleaning materials on the
oven door gasket. Doing so could cause damage.
• Completely remove all oven racks and any accesso-
ries including the broiler pan and insert and any
aluminum foil. These items cannot withstand high
cleaning temperatures and will melt. If the oven racks
are not removed, they will lose their special coating
properties and will no longer slide in and out of the
oven cavity effortlessly.
• Remove any excessive spills in the oven cavity before
starting the Self Cleaning cycle. To clean, use hot,
soapy water and a cloth. Large spills can cause
heavy smoke or fire when subjected to high tempera-
tures. Do not allow food spills with a high sugar or
acid content (such as milk, tomatoes, sauerkraut, fruit
juices or pie filling) to remain on the surface as they
may leave a dull spot even after cleaning.
• Clean any soil from the oven frame, the door liner
outside the oven door gasket and the small area at
the front center of the oven bottom. These areas heat
sufficiently to burn soil on. Clean with soap and water.
