Excessive soil or grease.
Food too close to burner element.
Oven too hot.
Oven controls improperly set.
Oven was heavily soiled.

cleaning feature.

the temperature inside the oven has
not dropped below the unlocking
temperature.

disappear in time.

a longer period of time.
Close the oven door.
Press the Clear/Off pad. Allow the oven to cool.
Press the Clear/Off pad. Allow the oven to cool for one
hour. Put the oven back into operation.

To speed the process, set a self-clean cycle for a
minimum of 3 hours. See the Cleaning the Oven section.

a self-clean cycle.
This is normal. The cooling fan will turn on to cool
internal parts. It may run for up to 1-1/2 hours after the
oven is turned off.
This is normal. Under certain light or angles, you may
see this tint or rainbow color.
The cookware or food in the oven will cause the oven to
take longer to preheat. Remove items to reduce preheat
time.
Adding more racks to the oven will cause the oven to
take longer to preheat. Remove some racks.
The different cooking modes use different preheat
methods to heat the oven for the specific cooking mode.
Some modes will take longer than others (i.e. convection
bake multi).
