Using the self-cleaning oven.
(on some models) GEAppliances.com
The oven door must be closed and all controls must be set correctly for the cycle to work properly.
Before a Clean Cycle
We recommend venting your kitchen
with an open window or using a
ventilation fan or hood during the
first self-clean cycle.
Remove the broiler pan, broiler grid, all
cookware and any aluminum foil from
the oven.
The oven racks can be self-cleaned, but
they will darken, lose their luster and
become hard to slide.
Do not use abrasives or oven cleaners.
Clean the top, sides and outside of the
oven door with soap and water.
Make sure the oven light bulb cover
(on some models) is in place and the
oven light is off.
IMPORTANT: The health of some birds
is extremely sensitive to the fumes given
off during the self-cleaning cycle of any
oven. Move birds to another well
ventilated room.
■
On models with press pad controls
for both ovens, you can set a clean
cycle in both ovens at the same time.
The last oven set will automatically
delay its start until the end of the
first oven’s clean cycle.
■
On models with press pad controls for
both ovens, you can use timed baking
in one oven and self-clean the other at
the same time.
■
On models with a knob, the lower
oven does not have the self-clean
feature.
Wipe up heavy soil on the oven
bottom. (appearance may vary)
How to Set the Oven for Cleaning
Press the Self Clean pad once for
a 4-hour clean time or twice for
a 3-hour clean time.
A 3-hour self-clean time is
recommended for use when
cleaning small, contained spills. A
self-clean time of 4 hours or longer
is recommended for a dirtier oven.
If a time other than 4 hours or
3 hours is needed, use the number
pads (on some models) or the Hour
and Min + or – pads (on some
models) and enter the desired
clean time.
You can change the clean time to any
time between 3 hours and 5 hours,
depending on how dirty your oven is.
Press the Start pad.
The door locks automatically. The display
will show the clean time remaining. It will
not be possible to open the oven door
until the temperature drops below the
lock temperature and the LOCKED light
goes off.
When the LOCKED light goes off, you will
be able to open the door.
■
The word LOCK will flash and the oven
control will signal if you set the clean
cycle and forget to close the oven door.
■
To stop a clean cycle, press the
Clear/Off pad. When the LOCKED light
goes off indicating the oven has cooled
below the locking temperature, you
will be able to open the door.
