Use and Care Guide

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.
Before cleaning, make sure the door is completely closed or the
door will not lock and the Self-Cleaning cycle will not begin.
Once the oven has completely cooled, remove ash with a damp
cloth. T
o avoid breaking the glass, do not apply a cool damp
cloth to the inner door glass before it has completely cooled.
To stop the Self-Cleaning cycle at any ti
me, press OFF/CANCEL.
If the temperature is too high, the oven door will remain locked
and “cool” and “ ” will be displayed. The cooling fan may
continue to run.
The oven light will not function during the Self-Cleaning cycle.
Once the cleaning temperature has been reached, the electronic
co
ntrol requires a 12-hour delay before another Self-Cleaning
cycl
e can be started.
