CARE AND CLEANING: Cleaning the Range – Interior
Cleaning the Range – Interior
The interior of your new oven can be cleaned manually or by using 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 (unless certified for self-
cleaning oven), strong liquid cleansers, steel wool,
or scouring pads on the interior of the oven. For soils
on the oven bottom and other enameled surfaces,
use a gentle abrasive containing oxalic acid, such as
BarKeepersFriend®,withanon-scratchsponge.Take
care not to apply any abrasive cleaners or sponges to
the door glass, as it will scratch the reflective coating.
The oven interior and door glass may be cleaned using
a soft cloth with a mild soap and water, or vinegar and
water solution. After cleaning, rinse with clean water and
dry with a soft cloth.
Self Clean Mode
Read Self-Cleaning Oven Safety Instructions at the
beginning of this manual before using the Self Clean
Mode. Self Clean uses very high temperatures to clean
the oven interior. For a moderately soiled oven, run a
3 hour self-clean cycle. For a heavily soiled oven, run
a 5 hour self-clean cycle. Only self-clean (black) racks
and grates may remain in the oven during the self-clean
cycle. All other items, including nickel plated (silver) racks,
should be removed. If nickel plated (silver) racks are left
in the oven during a self-clean cycle, the racks will tarnish.
If either type of rack is left in the oven during a self-clean
cycle, the rack may become difficult to slide. See the
Oven Racks section for instructions on how to improve.
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.
To use the Self Clean feature:
1. Start with the oven at room temperature.
2. Wipe excess grease and soils from the oven and
interior door.
3. Remove all items other than self-clean (black)
racks and grates, if desired. See Cleaning the
Cooktop to determine if your grates may be self-
cleaned and for important details regarding grate
placement.
4. Close the door.
5. Press Clean pad once for Self-Clean operation.
The default setting is 5 hours, use the number pad
to choose any time between 3 to 5 hours. For
example, to select 4 hours, press 04:00 on the
number pad.”
6. When satisfied with the Self-Clean time press
Start.
You cannot open the door during the self-clean cycle.
The door will remain locked after the self-clean cycle until
the oven cools below the unlocking temperature. At the
end of the self-clean cycle, allow the oven to cool and
wipe any ash out of the oven.
To Stop a Self-Clean Cycle
PresstheCancel/Offpad.Waituntiltheovenhascooled
below the locking temperature to unlatch the door. You
will not be able to open the door right away unless the
oven has cooled below the locking temperature.
The surface units are automatically disabled during the
self-clean cycle. Make sure that all surface unit controls
are turned off at all times during the self-clean cycle.
Wait until the self-clean cycle is finished to set and use
the surface units.
Steam Clean Mode
The Steam Clean feature is for cleaning light soil from
your oven at a lower temperature than Self Clean.
To use the Steam Clean feature:
1. Start with the oven at room temperature.
2. Wipe excess grease and soils from the oven.
3. Pour one cup of water onto the bottom of the oven.
4. Close the door.
5. Press Clean pad twice for Steam Clean operation.
When "00:30" is displayed, press Start.
Do not open the door during the 30 minute Steam Clean
cycle. At the end of the Steam Clean cycle, soak up the
remaining water, and wipe the moisture-softened soil
from the oven walls and door.
