6. After four seconds, CLEAN, DELAY and LOCK will appear
in the display to show that the oven is set for a delayed
clean operation. The delay time is displayed.
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

or

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.
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
broiler 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. Move door lock
lever to the left to unlock.
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.
If the oven has already been set for a clean
cycle and you wish to set a delay:
1. Press the
Delay
pad.
• DELAY flashes.
• 00:00 will appear in the display.
2. Press the
More+
or
Less-
pad to set the
amount of time you want to delay the cycle.
After four seconds, CLEAN, DELAY and LOCK
will appear in the display to show that the
oven is set for a delayed clean operation. The
delay time is displayed.
When the Self-Clean cycle starts:
• DELAY will turn off.
• The clean time will appear in the display.
To cancel the Self-Clean cycle:
Press the
