BEFORE SELF CLEANING THE OVEN
Wipe out puddles of grease and any
loose soil that can be easily removed.
Remove any soil that is outside the
door seal area. This appliance is
designed to clean the oven interior
and that portion of the door that is
inside the oven. The outer edges of
the door and the oven cavity are not
in the cleaning zone. Wipe this area
clean BEFORE SETTING THE
OVEN TO SELF-CLEAN.
✓
Clean the oven front
frame and outer door
edges. Wipe up large
spillovers and grease.
LARGE GAS MAIN OVEN
The self-cleaning mode of your new
range features pyrolytic self-cleaning.
When set to the CLEAN mode, the
oven reaches a high temperature that
burns off the food soil.
When the oven is set for CLEAN,
only the cooktop burners (four or
six) may be used. The 12-inch oven
(Model PGR48 only), the griddle and/
or the grill cannot be used.
It is common to see smoke and/
or flames during the CLEAN
cycle, depending on the content and
amount of soil remaining in the oven.
If a flame persists, turn off the oven
and allow it to cool before opening
the door to wipe up the excessive
food soil.
At the end of the CLEAN cycle,
some gray ash or burned residue
may remain inside the oven. This is
a mineral deposit that does not burn
or melt. The amount of ash depends
on how heavily soiled the oven was
before it was cleaned. It is easily
removed, when the oven is cold,
using a damp paper towel, sponge, or
cloth.
Wipe off any smoke residue that
remains on the front frame with
Formula 409
®
or Fantastik
®
. If stain
remains, use a mild liquid cleanser.
The amount of smoke stain is directly
related to the amount of food soil left
in the oven at the time of self-cleaning.
Clean the oven often.
LOCK
When the CLEAN cycle starts, the LOCK light turns on, and the automatic
door lock cycle begins. Check the door when the LOCK light comes on to
confirm that it is locked. You can stop the clean cycle by selecting the OFF
position. The lock light will turn off only after the oven has cooled below 550˚F,
and the automatic door lock has completed its cycle to the open position.
Make certain that the oven door is locked at the beginning of the self-
cleaning cycle.
✓
Remove all utensils.
✓
Remove Racks.
✓
Be sure the light bulbs
and glass covers are in
place.
✓
Turn on the ventilator
hood above the range and
leave it on until after the
oven has completed the
self-clean cycle.
Self-Cleaning the Oven
NOTE:
For the first Self-
Cleaning cycle, remove small
animals and birds from the
kitchen and surrounding
areas. Open a nearby window
for additional ventilation.
