Your new oven features two pyrolytic self-cleaning ovens.
When set into the CLEAN mode, the oven reaches a
high temperature that burns off the food soil.
• Only one oven at a time can be set to self clean.

• It is common to see smoke and/or an occasional

flame-up 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.

• The oven light will not turn on when the oven is set

for a clean cycle.

1. Hand-clean the oven door edge, oven front frame and

oven cavity edges (shaded areas below).  They do not
get hot enough during the cleaning cycle for soil to
burn away.  Use a soapy sponge or plastic scrubber
or a detergent-filled S.O.S.

 pad.  DO NOT RUB

NOTE:   Due to the high temperatures used for
self-cleaning, the oven may develop fine hairlike lines
or surface roughness.  This is a common condition
and does not affect either the cooking or the clean-
ing performance of the oven.

3. Remove all utensils.

4. Remove oven racks.  If the oven racks are left in the

oven during a self-cleaning cycle, they will permanently
lose their shiny finish and change to a dull dark finish.
See the Oven Cleaning Chart for proper care,  Page
51.

5. Be sure the light is turned off on the control panel

and the bulb and glass cover are in place, see Page 53.

6. Heat and odors are normal during the Self-Cleaning

cycle.  Keep the kitchen well ventilated.

• At the end  of the CLEAN cycle,  some gray ash

remains inside the oven.  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 sponge or cloth.  (If the racks do not
slide easily after being cleaned,  lightly rub rack side
rails with vegetable oil).

IMPORTANT:  Be sure to let the inside window
glass in the oven door cool completely before
wiping up any ash left from the clean cycle.

JetDirect Floor Plate

• When the oven cools, insert the

tip of a large screwdriver into a
front center hole in the JetDirect
Floor Plate.

• Lift upward until the plate can

be held with two hands. Remove
and set aside.

• Wipe up any excess soft soil

from the oven liner and rear
trough.

• Replace JetDirect Floor Plate.
