Questions and Answers
Q. Why won’t my oven start
cleaning even though I’ve set all
the controls correctly?
A. Check to be sure the display
shows the correct time of day. Also
check to be sure the oven door is
closed securely and you have
touched the START pad.
Q. Can I clean the gasket around
the oven door?
A. Yes, but carefully, and only
with a clean sponge to soak the
soiled area with hydrogen
peroxide.
Q. What should I do if excessive
smoking occurs during cleaning?
A. Excessive grease is the cause.
Touch the
CLEAWOFF pad. Open
windows and doors to rid the room
of smoke. Let the oven cool for at
least one hour before opening the
door. Wipe up excess grease and
reset the cleaning cycle.
Q. Is the “crackling” sound I
hear during cleaning normal?

Q. Why do I have ash left in my
oven after cleaning?
A. Some types of soil leave a
deposit of ash. You can remove it
with a damp sponge or cloth.
Q. My oven shelves do not slide
easily. What’s the matter?
A. After cleaning, oven shelves
may be so clean that they will not
slide easily. They will again if you
dampen your fingertips with a little
cooking oil and rub lightly over the
sides of the shelf.
Q. My oven shelves became
gray after the self-clean cycle.
Is this normal?
A. Yes. And after the self-clean
cycle, they’ll lose their luster and
change to a deeper gray color.
Q. Can I stop an oven cleaning
cycle after cleaning has begun?
A. Yes, but you won’t be able to
open the door until the oven cools
to below 500°F. Touch
CLEAWO~
pad to cancel the
cleaning cycle. When “LOCKED”
no longer appears on the display,
open the door.
Q. If the inside of my oven door
is soiled, will it be cleaned during
the cleaning cycle?
A. Yes. The raised section of the
oven door inside the gasket will be
cleaned automatically. The area
outside the oven gasket must be
cleaned by hand as described in the
Cleaning Guide.
Q. Why would I want to set my
oven to start cleaning at a later
time of day?
A. Some utility companies
offer lower rates at times when
electrical consumption is lowest.
Since these times often occur late
at night, you can set your oven
before going to bed so cleaning
is done while you sleep.
