How the Cycle Works
IMPORTANT: The heating and cooling of porcelain on steel in the oven may result in discoloring, loss of gloss, hairline cracks and popping sounds. The Self-Cleaning cycle uses very high temperatures, burning soil to a powdery ash. The oven is preset for a 3 hour 30 minute clean cycle, but the time can be changed. Suggested clean times are 2 hours 30 minutes for light soil and between 3 hours 30 minutes and 4 hours 30 minutes for average to heavy soil. Once the oven has completely cooled, remove ash with a damp cloth. Do not wipe down any of the inside surfaces until the oven has completely cooled down. Applying a cool, damp cloth to the inner door glass before it has cooled completely could result in the glass breaking. The oven light will not work during the Self-Cleaning cycle.

EXTERIOR PORCELAIN ENAMEL SURFACES (on some models)
Food spills containing acids, such as vinegar and tomato, should be cleaned as soon as the entire appliance is cool. These spills may affect the finish. s Glass cleaner, mild liquid cleaner or nonabrasive scrubbing pad: Gently clean around the model and serial number plate because scrubbing may remove numbers. s All-Purpose Appliance Cleaner Part Number 31662 (not included): See �Assistance or Service� section to order.

To Self-Clean:
Before self-cleaning, make sure the door is closed completely or it will not lock and the cycle will not begin. 1. Press AUTO CLEAN. 2. Press the TEMP/TIME �up� or �down� arrow pad to set a clean time other than 3 hours 30 minutes. The clean time can be set between 2 hours 30 minutes and 4 hours 30 minutes. 3. Press START/ENTER. The oven door will automatically lock. The ON and DOOR LOCKED oven indicator lights will light up. The door will not unlock until the oven cools. When the cycle is complete and the oven cools, �End� will appear on the oven display and the oven indicator lights will go off. 4. Press OFF/CANCEL to clear the oven display.

STAINLESS STEEL (on some models)
Do not use soap-filled scouring pads, abrasive cleaners, Cooktop Polishing Creme, steel-wool pads, gritty washcloths or some paper towels. Damage may occur. Rub in direction of grain to avoid damaging. s Stainless Steel Cleaner & Polish Part Number 31464 (not included): See �Assistance or Service� section to order.

CERAMIC GLASS (on some models)
Do not use steel wool, abrasive powder cleansers, chlorine bleach, rust remover or ammonia because damage may occur.
