KitchenAid 27" Double Wall Oven with Even-Heat™ True Convection Utilização E Cuidado

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 High Temp Self-Cleaning Cycle uses very high temperatures, 
burning soil to a powdery ash. 

The oven is preset for a 4

 

hour 30 minute clean cycle; however, the 

time can be changed. Suggested clean times are 3 hours 
30 minutes for light soil and between 4

 

hours 30 minutes and 

5 hours 30 minutes for average to heavy soil.

Use the following chart as a guide to determine the desired 
cleaning level.

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 lights will not work during the High Temp Self-Cleaning 
cycle.

On double oven models, only one oven can self-clean at a time. If 
one oven is high temp self-cleaning, the other oven cannot be set 
or turned on.

NOTE: The oven has a 2 speed cooling fan motor. During self-
clean, the fan(s) will operate at its highest speed to increase airflow 
to better exhaust the hotter air through the oven vent(s). An 
increase in noise may be noticeable during and after the self-clean 
cycle until the oven cools.

To Start High-Temp Self-Cleaning

Before high temp self-cleaning, make sure the door is closed 
completely or it will not lock and the cycle will not begin. 

1. Touch SELF CLEAN (Upper or Lower Oven). Touch SELF 

CLEAN repeatedly to set a clean time other than 4 hours and 
30 minutes. The clean time can be set between 3 hours and 
30 minutes and 5 hours and 30 minutes. 

Number keys cannot be used to set a clean time.

2. Touch START.

The oven will start locking the door and display “Locking Door.” 
Opening the door at this point will cancel the self-clean cycle. 
“Door Locked” will display once the door is locked. Then, the 
start time and stop time will appear in the oven display.

When the cycle is complete and the oven is cool, “self clean 
complete” will appear on the oven display and “DOOR 
LOCKED” will disappear. The door will not unlock until the 
oven is cool.

If enabled, end-of-cycle tones will sound, then reminder tones 
will sound every minute.

3. Touch CANCEL for the selected oven, or open and close the 

oven door to clear the oven display and/or stop reminder 
tones.

To Delay the Start of High Temp Self-Cleaning

Before starting a delayed High Temp Self-Clean cycle, make sure 
the clock is set to the correct time of day. See “Clock” section. Also, 
make sure the door is closed completely or it will not lock and the 
cycle will not begin.

1. Touch SELF CLEAN (Upper or Lower Oven). Touch SELF 

CLEAN repeatedly to set a clean time other than 4 hours and 
30 minutes. The clean time can be set between 3 hours and 
30 minutes and 5 hours and 30 minutes.

Number keys cannot be used to set clean time.

 

2. Touch STOP TIME.

3. Touch the number keys to enter the time of day to stop.

4. Touch START. 

The start time and stop time is automatically calculated and 
displayed.

The door will not lock until the start time is reached.

When the start time is reached, the oven will automatically turn 
on. The oven will start locking the door and will display 
“Locking Door.” Opening the door at this point will cancel the 
self-clean cycle. “Door Locked” will display once the door is 
locked.

When the cycle is complete and the oven cools, “self clean 
complete” will appear on the oven display and “DOOR 
LOCKED” will disappear. The door will not unlock until the 
oven is cool.

5. Touch CANCEL for the selected oven, or open and close the 

oven door to clear the oven display.

To Stop High Temp Self-Cleaning anytime:

Touch Upper or Lower CANCEL. If the oven temperature is too 
high, the door will remain locked. It will not unlock until the oven 
cools.

General Cleaning

IMPORTANT: Before cleaning, make sure all controls are off and 
the oven is cool. Always follow label instructions on cleaning 
products.

Soap, water and a soft cloth or sponge are suggested first unless 
otherwise noted.

STAINLESS STEEL (on some models)

To avoid damage to stainless steel surfaces, do not use soap-filled 
scouring pads, abrasive cleaners, Cooktop Cleaner, steel-wool 
pads, gritty washcloths or abrasive paper towels.

Rub in direction of grain to avoid damaging.
