Oven Interior
The interior of your new oven can be cleaned manually
or by using the Steam Clean or Self Clean modes.
Spillage of marinades, fruit juices, tomato sauces and
basting liquids containing acids may cause discoloration
andshouldbewipedupimmediately.Lethotsurfaces
cool, then clean and rinse.
Manual Cleaning
Donotuseovencleaners,abrasivecleaners,strong
liquid cleansers, steel wool, scouring pads, or cleaning
powders on the interior of the oven. Clean with a mild
soap and water or vinegar and water solution. Rinse with
clean water and dry with a soft cloth. When cleaning
surfaces, make sure that they are at room temperature.
Steam Clean Mode
Steam clean is intended to clean small spills using water
and a lower cleaning temperature than Self-Clean.
To use the Steam Clean feature, wipe grease and soils
from the oven. Pour one cup of water into the bottom of
the oven. Close the door. Press the Clean pad twice
and then press Start. The oven door will lock. You can
not open the door during the 30 minute steam clean as
this will decrease the steam clean performance. At the
end of the steam clean cycle the door will unlock. Wipe
out any excess water and any remaining soil.
NOTE: Water in the bottom of the oven may be hot right
after finishing the cycle.
Self Clean Mode
ReadSelf-CleaningOvenSafetyInstructionsatthe
beginning of this manual before using Self Clean Mode.
Self clean uses very high temperatures to clean the oven
interior. The oven door will lock when using this feature.
Beforeoperatingtheself-cleancycle,wipeupgrease
and soils from the oven. Remove all items from the oven
other than enameled (dark color) racks. Shiny or silver
racks, the meat probe, and any cookware or other items
should all be removed from the oven before initiating a
self-clean cycle. Close the door. Press the Clean pad
once and a default self-clean time is displayed. The
clean time can be changed to any time between 3:00
and 5:00 hours by using the number pads to enter a
different time and pressing Start. For heavily soiled
ovens, the maximum 5 hour clean time is recommended.
Ifyouwishtousethedefaulttime,presstheStart pad
immediately after pressing the Clean pad. The oven
will turn off automatically when the self-clean cycle is
complete. The door will stay locked until the oven has
cooled down. After the oven has cooled down wipe any
ash out of the oven.
IMPORTANT: The health of some birds is extremely
sensitive to the fumes given off during the self-cleaning cycle
of any range. Move birds to another well-ventilated room.
