During the Self-Clean Cycle
When LOCK shows in the display, the door cannot be opened.
To prevent damage to the door,
do not force the door open
when LOCK is displayed.
Smoke and Smells
You may see some smoke and smell an odor the first few times
the oven is cleaned. This is normal and will lessen in time.
Smoke may also occur if the oven is heavily soiled or if a pan
was left in the oven.
Sounds
As the oven heats, you may hear sounds of metal parts
expanding and contracting. This is normal and will not
damage the oven.
After Self-Cleaning
About one hour after the end of the self-clean cycle, LOCK will
turn off. The door can then be opened.
Some soil may leave a light gray, powdery ash. Remove it
with a damp cloth. If soil remains after wiping, that means the
clean cycle was not long enough. The soil will be removed
during the next clean cycle.
If oven racks were left in the oven and do not slide
smoothly after a clean cycle, wipe racks and rack supports
with a small amount of vegetable oil to make them easier to
move.
Fine lines may appear in the porcelain because it went
through heating and cooling. This is normal and will not
affect performance.
A white discoloration may appear after cleaning if acidic
or sugary foods were not wiped up before the self-clean
cycle. This discoloration is normal and will not affect
performance.
Notes:
• If the oven door is left open, “door” will flash in the
display and a signal will beep until the door is closed
and the
Clean pad is pressed again.
• If more than five seconds elapse between pressing the
Clean pad and the More+ or Less- pad, the program
will automatically return to the previous display.
• The oven door will be damaged if the oven door is
forced to open when LOCK is still displayed.
