The oven door must be closed and all controls must be set correctly for the cycle to work properly.
How to Delay the Start of Cleaning
Touch SELF CLEAN.
For double oven models only, touch
UPPER OVEN or LOWER OVEN to select
the desired oven.
Three self clean time options are
available:
■
LIGHT CLEAN – Touch for an
automatic 3-hour clean time.
Recommended for use when cleaning
small, contained spills.
■ REGULAR CLEAN – Touch for
an automatic 5-hour clean time.
Recommended for a dirtier oven.
■
CUSTOM – Touch and, using the
numbers, set a clean time between
3 hours and 7 hours and 30 minutes,
depending on how dirty your oven is.
Touch LATER.
Three delay start time setting options
are available:
■ DELAYED TIME – Touch and then use
the numbers to set the amount of
time before you want cleaning to start.
Touch ENTER.
■ START CLEAN TIME – Touch and then
use the numbers to set the time of day
you want cleaning to begin. Touch
ENTER.
■ FINISH CLEAN TIME – Touch and
then use the numbers to set the
time of day that you want cleaning
to finish. Touch ENTER.
The door locks automatically. The screen will
show the start time. It will not be possible to
open the oven door until the temperature
drops below the lock temperature and OVEN
LOCKED goes off.
When OVEN LOCKED goes off, you will be able
to open the door.
On double oven models, you can set a clean in both
ovens at the same time. The second oven set will
automatically delay the start of cleaning until the end
of the first oven’s clean cycle or until the delay time
that you set.
To set the second oven, there are two options
available:
■
Immediately after setting the first oven:
Select PRESS TO MAKE LOWER OVEN
SELECTIONS or PRESS TO MAKE UPPER
OVEN SELECTIONS as needed and follow
steps 3–6 above for the second oven.
■
From the home screen:
Touch SELF CLEAN.
Touch LIGHT CLEAN, REGULAR CLEAN or
CUSTOM. See above for reference.
Touch START AFTER 1ST SELF CLEAN for
the second oven to automatically start
cleaning after the first oven has finished
cleaning or DELAYED TIME and follow
step 6 above to set the time you want the
second oven to start.
To recall the remaining time or the start time set,
touch SELF CLEAN.
■
To stop a clean cycle, touch CANCEL or the
CLEAR/OFF pad. When OVEN LOCKED goes
off, indicating the oven has cooled below
the locking temperature, you will be able
to open the door.

After a Clean Cycle
You may notice some white ash in the oven.
Wipe it up with a damp cloth after the oven
cools.
If white spots remain, remove them with a soap-filled
steel-wool pad and rinse thoroughly with a vinegar and
water mixture. These deposits are usually a salt residue
that cannot be removed by the clean cycle.
If the oven is not clean after one clean cycle,
repeat the cycle.
■
You cannot set the oven for cooking until
the oven is cool enough for the door to
unlock.
■
While the oven is self-cleaning, you can
touch CLOCK to display the time of day.
To return to the clean countdown, touch
SELF CLEAN.
Standard Racks
If they become hard to slide, wipe their side
edges and the oven rack supports with
cooking oil.
Extension Rack
If it becomes difficult to slide or if the
release levers become difficult to use,
see Extension Rack in the Care and cleaning
section. Do not spray extension rack with
cooking spray or other lubricant sprays.
If it becomes hard to remove or replace,
wipe the oven rack supports with cooking
oil. Do not wipe cooking oil on the slides.
NOTE: After the first self-clean cycle, the gray
stainless steel surfaces will change color. This is
normal.
