Í NOTE
When the oven is cool, wipe away any residue or powdered
ash with damp cloth or paper towel.

CYCLE TIME LENGTH
The Quick Clean and Self Clean pads control the Self-
Cleaning feature. If you are planning to use the oven
directly after a self-clean cycle remember to allow time
for the oven to cool down and the oven door to unlock.
This normally takes about one hour. So a 3 hour self-
clean cycle will actually take about 4 hours to complete.
*It is recommend to use a 2 hour Quick clean cycle for
light soils, a 3 hour Self clean cycle for average or heavy
soils (to assure satisfactory results).

Clean cycle or a Delay Start Quick Clean or a Delay

to lock).

cycle and the Door Locked light will glow until the
Self Clean cycle is completed or cancelled and the
oven temperature has cooled.
When the Self-Clean Cycle is Completed

ADJUSTING OVEN TEMPERATURE
Your oven thermostat has been precisely set at the
factory. This setting may be differ from your previous
oven, however, so your recipe times may not give you
the results you expect. If you think the oven is cooking
too hot or cool for your recipe times, you can adjust the
thermostat so that the oven cooks hotter or cooler then
the temperature displayed.
Í NOTE
The oven temperature adjustments made with this feature
will not change the Self-Clean cycle temperature.
To adjust the oven temperature:
1. Press and hold the BAKE pad for 8 seconds. The
display now indicates the amount of degrees offset
between the original factory temperature setting and
the current temperature setting. If the oven controls
has the factory calibration, the display will read “0°”.
2. The temperature can now be adjusted up or down
35°F or 19°C, in 1°F or 1°C steps by pushing and
holding the Up or Down arrow pad. Adjust until
he desired amount of degrees offset appears in
the display. When lowering the oven temperature,
a minus sign (-) will appear before the number to
indicate that the oven will be cooler by the displayed
amount of degrees.
3. When you have made the desired adjustment, wait
5 seconds and the display will go back to the time of
day.
