Self-Cleaning Cycle
IMPORTANT: The health of some birds is extremely sensitive to the 
fumes given off during the Self-Cleaning cycle. Exposure to the 
fumes may result in death to certain birds. Always move birds to 
another closed and well-ventilated room.
Self-clean the oven before it becomes heavily soiled. Heavy soil 
results in longer cleaning and more smoke.
Keep the kitchen well-ventilated during the Self-Cleaning cycle to 
help get rid of heat, odors and smoke.
Do not block the oven vent(s) during the Self-Cleaning cycle. Air 
must be able to move freely. Depending on your model, see “Oven 
Vent” or “Oven Vents” section.
Do not clean, rub, damage or move the oven door gasket. The door 
gasket is essential for a good seal.
Prepare Oven:
Remove the broiler pan, grid, cookware and bakeware and, on 
some models, the temperature probe from the oven.
Remove oven racks to keep them shiny and easy to slide. See 
“General Cleaning” section for more information.
Remove any foil from the oven because it may burn or melt, 
damaging the oven.
Hand clean inside door edge and the 1½" (3.8 cm) area around 
the inside oven cavity frame, being certain not to move or bend 
the gasket. This area does not get hot enough during self-
cleaning to remove soil. Do not let water, cleaner, etc., enter 
slots on door frame. Use a damp cloth to clean this area.
Wipe out any loose soil to reduce smoke and avoid damage. At 
high temperatures, foods react with porcelain. Staining, 
etching, pitting or faint white spots can result. This will not 
affect cooking performance.
Prepare Cooktop:
Remove plastic items from the cooktop because they may 
melt.
NOTE: The cooktop warming center will not function during the 
self-clean cycle.
IMPORTANT: 
Oven temperature must be below 400°F (205°C) to program a 
clean cycle.
Only 1 oven can be cleaned at a time. 
Both oven doors lock when either oven is being cleaned.
How the Cycle Works
IMPORTANT: The heating and cooling of porcelain on steel in the 
oven may result in discoloring, loss of gloss, hairline cracks and 
popping sounds.
The Self-Cleaning cycle uses very high temperatures, burning soil 
to a powdery ash. 
The oven is preset for a 3 hour clean cycle; however, the time can 
be changed. Suggested clean times are 2 hours for light soil and 
between 3 hours and 4 hours for average to heavy soil. 
Once the oven has completely cooled, remove ash with a damp 
cloth. To avoid breaking the glass, do not apply a cool damp cloth 
to the inner door glass before it has completely cooled.
The oven light will not work during the Self-Cleaning cycle.
On some models, the surface elements will not work during the 
Self-Cleaning cycle.
When “LOCK” shows in the display, the door cannot be opened. To 
avoid damage to the door, do not force the door open when 
“LOCK” is displayed.
If an oven door is left open, “Door Open? Clean Canceled” will 
appear in the display and a signal will beep. Close the oven door 
and press SELF CLEAN.
NOTE: Only one oven can use the Self-Clean cycle at a time, and 
24 hours must pass before the next Self-Clean can begin.
