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 850°F 
(454°C), that burns off the food soil. 

When the oven is set for CLEAN, the standard cooktop 
burners and the electric griddle may be used. Only one 
oven at a time can be in CLEAN or in use. The outer 
burners, having the ExtraLow

®

 feature, 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. When the oven is cold, it is easily removed using 
a damp paper towel, sponge, or cloth. 

Wipe off any smoke residue that remains on the front frame

cleaners. If stain remains, 

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. 

Before Self Cleaning the Oven

To reduce flare ups and excess smoke 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 the 
portion of the door that is inside the oven. The outer edges 
of the door and the frame surrounding the front of the oven 
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. 

•

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. 

For the first Self-Cleaning cycle of your new range, remove 
small animals and birds from the kitchen and surrounding 
areas. Open a nearby window for additional ventilation. 

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 CLEANING 
light will turn off only after the oven has cooled below 500°F 
(260°C), and the automatic door lock has completed its 
cycle to the open position. 

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 appliances 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 may 
facilitate the emission of small amounts of chemicals 
or other substances that may be harmful upon 
sufficient exposure. To minimize exposure to these 
substances, provide good ventilation 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 harmful to 
birds.
