Oven Cleaning
Figure 1
Figure 2
During the self-cleaning
cycle,theoutsideoftherangecanbecome
very hot to the touch. DO NOT leave
small children unattended near the
appliance.
Self-Cleaning Oven
A self-cleaning oven cleans itself with high temperatures (well above cooking
temperatures) which eliminate soil completely or reduce it to a fine powdered ash
you can wipe away with a damp cloth.
DO NOT line the oven
walls,racks,bottomoranyother part
of the range with aluminum foil.
Doing so will destroy heat
distribution, produce poor baking
resultsandcausepermanentdamage
to the oven interior (aluminum foil
will melt to the interior surface of the
oven).
1. Adhere to the following cleaning precautions:
• Allow the oven to cool before precleaning.
• Wear rubber gloves when precleaning and while wiping up the residue after
the self-clean cycle.
• DO NOT use oven cleaners or oven protective coatings in or around any part
of the self-cleaning oven.
• DO NOT clean the oven door gasket. The woven material of the oven door
gasket is essential for a good seal. Care should be taken not to rub, damage
or remove the gasket.
• DO NOT use any cleaning materials on the oven door gasket. Doing so could
cause damage.
2. Remove the broiler pan and insert, all utensils and any aluminum
foil. These items cannot withstand high cleaning temperatures.
3. Oven racks may be left in the oven or may be removed. If they go through the
clean cycle their color will turn slightly blue and the finish will be dull. After the
cycle is complete and the oven has cooled, rub the sides of the racks with wax
paperoraclothcontainingasmallamountofbabyoilorsaladoil(thiswillmake
the racks glide easier into the rack position).
4. Remove any excess spillovers in the oven cavity before starting the self-cleaning
cycle. To clean, use hot, soapy water and a cloth. Large spillovers can cause
heavy smoke or fire when subjected to high temperatures. DO NOT allow food
spillswithahighsugaroracidcontent(suchasmilk, tomatoes, sauerkraut, fruit
juices or pie filling) to remain on the surface as they may cause a dull spot even
after cleaning.
5. Clean any soil from the oven frame, the door liner outside the oven door gasket
and the small area at the front center of the oven bottom. These areas heat
sufficiently to burn soil on. Clean with soap and water.
DO NOT force the oven
door open. This can damage the
automatic door locking system. Use
caution when opening the door after
the self-cleaning cycle is completed. The
oven may still be VERY HOT.

before removing elements or drip bowls.
Be careful not to bend terminal ends
when replacing elements after cleaning.
To Remove the Surface Elements and Drip Bowls
1. Lift the edge of the drip bowl across from the terminal end. Lift the surface
element and drip bowl together just enough to clear the cooktop.
2. While holding the drip bowl and surface element, gently pull the terminal end
out from the terminal plug. If equipped, DO NOT remove the hold down clip
from the drip bowl.
To Clean Drip Bowls
Wash in hot, soapy water or in the dishwasher. Rinse and dry while still warm. Hard
to remove, burned on soil can be removed by soaking the drip bowls for about 20
minutes in a lightly diluted liquid cleanser or a solution of ammonia and water

The temperature in the oven has been set at the factory. When first using the oven,
be sure to follow recipe times and temperatures. If you think the oven is too hot
or too cool, the temperature in the oven can be adjusted. Before adjusting, test a
recipe by using a temperature setting that is higher or lower than the
recommended temperature. The baking results should help you to decide how
much of an adjustment is needed.
Adjusting Oven
Temperature
Figure 1
To Adjust Oven Temperature (Figure 1)
1. With the dial set to OFF, press and hold START for 30 seconds until a single
beep is heard.
2. Within 5 seconds, turn the Temperature Control Knob clockwise to either the
High (HI) or Low (LO) Broil setting. Select High Broil (HI) to increase the
temperature or Low Broil (LO) to decrease the temperature.
3. The temperature can be adjusted up or down 35°F, in 5°F steps, by pressing
START. Adjust until the desired amount of offset is indicated by the indicator
lights as follows:
A flashing "OVEN" indicator light indicates a positive offset, while a flashing
"LOCK" indicator light indicates a negative offset. The lights will flash once for
each 5°F of offset. If no light is flashing, the oven control has the original factory
calibration, and the offset is 0°F. Example: If the OVEN indicator light is flashing
three times and then pauses, the offset is +15°F.
4. When you have made the desired adjustment, turn the Temperature Control
Knob to OFF.

Before you call for service, review this list. It may save you time and expense. The list
includes common occurrences that are not the result of defective workmanship or
materials in this appliance.
Avoid Service Checklist
This oven is equipped with a state of the art electronic oven controller. Among its
many features is a full time oven circuit diagnostics system. The controller constantly
monitors its internal circuitry as well as several crucial oven circuits to insure they are
all operating correctly. If at any time one of these systems fails, the controller will
immediately stop operation, and beep continuously (flashing an error code of F1 or
F3* in the display window, if equipped).
OCCURRENCE
POSSIBLE CAUSE/SOLUTION
Range is not level.
Poor installation. Place oven rack in center of oven. Place a level on the oven rack.
Adjust leveling legs at base of range until the oven rack is level.
Be sure floor is level and is strong and stable enough to adequately support range.
If floor is sagging or sloping, contact a carpenter to correct the situation.
Kitchen cabinet alignment may make range appear unlevel. Be sure cabinets are
square and have sufficient room for range clearance.
Cannot move appliance easily.
Appliance must be accessible for
service.
Cabinets not square or are built in too tightly. Contact builder or installer to make
appliance accessible.
Carpet interferes with range. Provide sufficient space so range can be lifted over
carpet.
*Oven control beeps continuously
with no indicator lights flashing. (If

or F3 will show.)
Surface element too hot or not hot
enough.
Incorrect control setting. Make sure the correct control is on for the surface element
to be used.
Surface element does not heat.
Lightweight or warped pans used. Use only flat, evenly balanced, medium or
heavyweight cookware. Flat pans heat better than warped pans. Cookware materials
and weight of the material affect heating. Heavy- and medium-weight pans heat
evenly. Because lightweight pans heat unevenly, foods may burn easily.
No power to the appliance. Check steps under "Entire Appliance Does Not Operate"
in this Avoid Service Checklist.
Incorrect control setting. Make sure the correct control is on for the surface element
to be used.
Element not making contact in block. Follow instructions under "Surface Elements
and Drip Bowls" in the General Cleaning section.
Entire appliance does not operate.
Make sure cord/plug is plugged tightly into outlet.
Service wiring is not complete. Contact your dealer, installing agent or authorized
servicer.
Power outage. Check house lights to be sure. Call your local electric company for
service.

models) in this Owner's Guide for instructions.
Oven smokes excessively during
broiling.
Control(s) not set properly. Follow instructions under Setting Oven Controls.
Make sure oven door is opened to broil stop position.
Meat too close to the element. Reposition the rack to provide proper clearance
between the meat and the element. Preheat broil element for searing.
Meat not properly prepared. Remove excess fat from meat. Cut remaining fatty
edges to prevent curling, but do not cut into lean.
Grid on broiler pan wrong side up and grease not draining. Always place grid on
the broiler pan with ribs up and slots down to allow grease to drip into pan.
Grease has built up on oven surfaces. Regular cleaning is necessary when broiling
frequently. Old grease or food spatters cause excessive smoking.
Poor baking results.
If baked food items are too dark on top or bottom, allow the oven to preheat to
the set temperature before placing food in the oven. Make sure the proper rack
position is used when baking food. Set temperature 25°F lower than recommended.
If food is not done after recommended time, increase set temperature by 25°F.
Self-cleaning cycle does not work.
Control(s) not set properly. Follow instructions under Oven Cleaning.
Self-cleaning cycle was interrupted. Follow steps under "Stopping or Interrupting
a Self-Cleaning Cycle" under Oven Cleaning.
Soil not completely removed after
self-cleaning cycle.
Failure to clean bottom, front top of oven, frame of oven or door area outside
oven seal. These areas are not in the self-cleaning area, but get hot enough to
burn on residue. Clean these areas before the self-cleaning cycle is started. Burned-
on residue can be cleaned with a stiff nylon brush and water or a nylon scrubber.
Be careful not to damage the oven gasket.
Flames inside oven or smoking from
vent.
Excessive spillovers in oven. Set self-clean cycle for a longer cleaning time.
Excessive spillovers in oven. This is normal, especially for high oven temperatures,
pie spillovers or large amounts of grease on bottom of oven. Wipe up excessive
spillovers before starting cycle. If flames or excessive smoke are present, stop the
self-clean cycle and follow steps under "Stopping or Interrupting a Self-Cleaning
Cycle" in the Oven Cleaning section.
