IMPORTANT

When the self-clean cycle has completed:

1. The time of day will appear in the display window and

the “Clean” and "LOCK" light will continue to glow.

2. Once the oven has cooled down for about 1 HOUR and

the amount of time remaining in the self-clean cycle by

pressing the clean pad. Remember the range door

cannot be opened until the range has cooled sufficiently.

You will need to add about 1 hour to the time

displayed before you can use the range for cooking.

When the oven is cool, wipe away any residue or

powdered ash with a damp cloth or paper towel.

NOTES

To avoid possible burns use care when opening the oven

door after the self-cleaning cycle. Stand to the side of

the oven when opening the door to allow hot air or

steam to escape.

DO NOT force the oven door open. This can damage the

automatic door locking system. Use caution and avoid

possible burns when opening the door after the self-

cleaning cycle has completed. The oven may still be

VERY HOT.
