Whirlpool RY160LXTS オーナーマニュアル

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 and Storage Drawer or Warming Drawer:

■

Remove plastic items from the cooktop because they may
melt.

■

Remove all items from the storage drawer or warming drawer.

NOTE: Oven temperature must be below 400°F (205°C) to
program a clean cycle.

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.

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.

To Self-Clean:

1. Close the oven door.

2. Move the door lock lever to the right to the locked position.

3. Press CLEAN.

4. Press the “up” or “down” arrow pad.

CL-M (Clean - Medium soil, 3 hours) appears in the display.

If the door is not closed, beeps will sound and “door” will
appear in the display until the door is closed and the Clean
pad is pressed again. If the door is not closed within
45 seconds, the self-cleaning operation will be canceled
and the display will return to the time of day.

If more than 5 seconds elapse between pressing the Clean
pad and the “up” or “down” arrow pad, the program will
automatically return to the previous display.

or “down” arrow pads to scroll through the self-cleaning

CL-H (Clean - Heavy soil, 4 hours)

Choosing a cleaning level automatically programs the self-
cleaning time.

“LOCK” and “CLEAN” will appear in the display. The cleaning
