Self-Cleaning 27
″ Oven
Stainless Steel Range
24
Before a
clean cycle
NOTE: When the 27
″ oven is set for self-
cleaning, only the surface burners may be
used. The 12
″ oven, the griddle and/or the
grille cannot be used.
The range must be completely cool in order to
set the self-clean cycle.
We recommend venting with an open window
or using a ventilation fan or hood during the
first self-clean cycle.
Remove all cookware and any aluminum foil
from the oven.
Remove the oven shelves and shelf slide
assembly.
Make sure the oven light bulb cover is in place
and the oven light is off.
Do not use commercial oven cleaners or oven
protectors in or near the self-cleaning oven.
Oven
shelf slide
assembly
An interlock system has been designed so that
the self-clean cycle will not start until the shelf
slide assemblies have been removed.
The roller-assisted shelf supports are designed
to withstand standard baking temperatures.
They will not withstand the extreme
temperatures of self-cleaning.
To remove the slide assemblies:
1
Loosen the retaining screws on both sides of
the oven.
2 Lift up slightly and pull the entire assembly
out. Set aside.
To replace the slide assemblies:
When self-cleaning is finished, and the oven has
cooled, replace the assemblies and retaining
screws.
1 Guide the rear of the shelf slide assembly into
the bottom rear bracket.
2 Guide the top rear of the shelf slide assembly
into the top “U”-shaped bracket.
3 Lift up the push rod so that it rests on the
ledge of the side support of the assembly.
4 Reattach the assembly securely to the oven
with the retaining screw. Repeat for the other
side of the oven.
