Problem
Possible cause
Solution
Excessive
smoking during
a self-cleaning
cycle.
There is excessive soiling in
the oven.
Press
OFF
. Open the windows
to rid the room of smoke.
Wait until the self-cleaning
cycle is cancelled. Wipe up the
excessive soil and then start
the self-cleaning cycle again.
The oven door
will not open
after a self-
cleaning cycle.
The oven is too hot.
Allow the oven to cool.
The oven is not
clean after a
self-cleaning
cycle.
The oven controls were not
set correctly.
See the section on self-
cleaning on page
.
The oven was heavily soiled.
Wipe up heavy spillovers
before starting the self-
cleaning cycle. Heavily soiled
ovens may need to be self-
cleaned again or for a longer
period of time.
Steam is
coming out of
the vent.
When using the convection
feature, it is normal to see
steam coming out of the oven
vent.
This is normal operation and
not a system failure.
Use the range as usual.
As the number of racks or
amount of food being cooked
increases, the amount of
visible steam will increase.
A burning or
oily odor is
coming from
the vent.
This is normal in a new oven
and will disappear in time.
•
To speed the process, set
a self-cleaning cycle for a
minimum of 3 hours.
