Self-cleaning oven
The self-cleaning oven uses high temperatures (well above cooking temperatures)
to burn off left over grease and residue completely or reduce them to a finely
powdered ash that can be wiped away with a damp cloth.
WARNING
Failure to follow these precautions could result in damage to the oven, fire, and/or
personal injury.
•
Do not leave small children unattended near the range during a self-cleaning
cycle. The outside surfaces of the range can get extremely hot.
•
Some birds are extremely sensitive to fumes from a self-cleaning oven.
Relocate birds to a well-ventilated room away from the range.
•
Do not line the oven, oven racks, or oven bottom with aluminum foil. Doing
so will result in poor heat distribution, produce poor baking results, and cause
permanent damage to the oven interior. The aluminum foil will melt onto and
adhere to the interior oven surfaces.
•
Do not force the oven door open during the self cleaning cycle. It will damage
the automatic door-locking system. The door automatically locks when the
self-cleaning cycle is started and stays locked until the cycle is cancelled and
the oven temperature is below 350 °F.
•
Be careful opening the oven door after a self-cleaning cycle. The oven will still
be VERY HOT and hot air and steam might escape when the door is opened.
Before a self-cleaning cycle
NOTE
Remove the racks. Leaving the oven racks in the oven during a self-cleaning cycle
will discolor the oven racks and make them difficult to slide in and out of position.
WARNING
Do NOT use the surface burners while the oven is operating in the self clean mode.
•
Make sure the door lock feature is
turned off and the oven is cool. If they
are not, the self-cleaning cycle will not
start.
•
On model NX58*565***, make sure the
warming drawer is turned off. Self-clean
will not start when the drawer is on.
•
A blinking Loc icon indicates the oven
door is in the process of being locked.
•
When the Loc icon is on, the oven door
is locked.
