THE SELF-CLEANING UPPER OVEN CYCLE
The upper oven self-cleaning cycle uses very high hecrt to burn away
soil. Before you start, make sure you understand exactly how to use the
cycle safely.
BEFORE YOU START
Clean areas that may not be cleaned
during the cycle. Use hot water and deter
gent or a soapy steel-wool pad on...
• the frame around the oven
• the inside of the door, especially the
part outside the oven seal
DO NOT try to clean the fiberglass seal. DO
NOT move It or bend It.
Remove any pots or pans you may have
stored in the oven. They can't stand the
high heat,
3. Wipe out any loose soil or grease. This will
help reduce smoke during the cleaning
cycle,
SPECIAL CAUTIONS
DO NOT block the vent
during the cleaning cycle,
Air must move freely for
best results.
'
[ i>
v.._.
DO NOT use commercial
oven cleaners in your oven.
Damage to the porcelain
finish may occur
DO NOT touch the oven
during the cleaning cycle
...it can burn you.
; i
DO NOT use foil or other
liners in the oven. During
the cleaning cycle, they
can burn or melt.

SETTING THE CONTROLS
1. Make sure the clock
and start and stop
-time dials all have the
right time of day.
4. Set the Oven Temper
ature Control to CLEAN
7. Turn the Oven Temper
ature Control to OFF.
Push in the Stop Time
Knob and turn the
hand clockwise
about two or three
hours, (Two hours for
light soil; three or
more for heavier soil.)
The Lock Light comes
on when the oven
gets above normal
baking temperatures.
The door can't be
unlocked when the
Lock Light is on
After the oven Is cool,
wipe off any residue
or ash with a damp
cloth If needed,
touch up spots with
cleanser or soapy
steel-wool pad
3. Set the Oven Selector
to CLEAN. The Clean
Light will come on
and the door will lock
automatically.
6. When the Lock Light
goes oft, turn the Oven
Selector to OFF. This
unlocks the door.
DO NOT TOUCH THE OVEN DURING THE CLEANING CYCLE. IT CAN BURN YOU.
12
Page 13
SPECIAL TIPS
Keep the kitchen well
ventilated during the
cieaning cycle to help
gel rid of normal heat
odors and smoke.
4. Oven racks lose their shine, discolor
and become harder to slide on their
guides when they are left in the oven
during the cleaning cycle. To make
them slide easier, polish the edges of
the racks and rack guides with a soapy
steel-wool pad, rinse well, and wipe
on a thin coat of salad oil.
Clean the oven before
it gets heavily soiled.
Cleaning a very soiled
oven takes longer and
results in more smoke
than usual.
5. To stop the cleaning cycle after it has
started:
• Turn the Stop Time Knob clockwise
until the hand points to the right time
of day.
• Turn the Oven Selector and Oven
. Temperature Control to OFF,
• When the oven cools, you can
open the door. Wait until the oven is cool.
HOW IT WORKS
During the self-cleaning cycle, the oven gets much hotter than it
does for baking or broiling...approximately 630 F(433 C). This heat
breaks up grease and soil, and burns it off.
The graph shows approximate temperatures and times during a self
cleaning cycle set for two hours.
SELF-CLEANING CYCLE-TWO HOUR SETTING
If the cleaning cycle
doesn t get the oven as
clean as you
expected, the cycle
may not have been set
long enough. Set the
cleaning time longer
tor heavier soil.

427 C

Notice that the healing stops when the two-hour setting is up, but that it takes a
while longer for the oven to cool down enough to unlock.

THE CONTINUOUS-CLEANING LOWER OVEN
Standard oven walls are coated with smooth porcelain-enamel. Your
continuous-cleaning oven walls are coated with a special, rougher
porcelain-enamel.
A fat spatter beads up on the smooth surface, but spreads out on the rougher
surface. The bead of fat chars and turns black. The spread-out fat gradually
burns away at medium to high baking temperatures (350 -475"^^ 176 -231 C) so
the oven can return to a presentably clean condition.

USING FOIL
Foil must be used on the lower oven bottom to catch spillovers. The toll must
be used properly. Using foil in the self-cleaning upper oven is not
recommended.
Cut foil from a roll of heavy-duty 18-inch (45 cm] aluminum foil, or buy a foil kit
(Part No, 241430] from your Whirlpool Appliance dealer.
Lift the cool bake element
slightly to lift the feet off the
oven bottom
Slide the foil under the bake
element.
Make sure foil is centered,
long enough to start up both
sides, and lying flat without
wrinkles.
For proper baking, lower the
bake element so all leet
rest solidly on the foil.

If you need service or assistance,
we suggest you follow these four steps:
1I • Before calling for assistance...
Performance problems offen result from
little things you can find and fix yourself with
out tools of any kind.
If nothing operate»:
• Is the oven correctly wired to a live circuit
with the proper voltage? (See Installation
Instructions.)
• Have you checked the main fuse or circuit-
breaker box?
If the upper oven will net operate:
• Is the Upper Oven Selector turned to a set
ting (BAKE or BROIL, but not TIMED BAKE]'^
• Is the Upper Oven Temperature Control
turned to a temperature setting?
If the lower oven will net operate :
• Is the Lower Oven Selector turned to a set
ting (BAKE or BROIL)';’
• Is the Lower Oven Temperature Control
turned to a temperature setting?
If the lelf-cleanlng cycle will not operate:
• Are the Upper Oven Selector and Upper
Oven Temperature Controls set to "CLEAN"?
• Does the Start Time dial show the correct
time of day?
• Is the Stop Time dial set ahead to the time
you want the cleaning cycle to stop?
If toll Is visible on continuous-cleaning oven
finish:
• The special finish is designed to gradually
reduce oven soil during normal baking
or roasting. It is not designed to keep your
oven spotless...only presentably clean
• If you broil often, you may see oven soil.
• The door is coolerthan oven walls. Soil will
be more visible on the doorthan other areas
in the oven. See page 15, "Hand Cleaning."

r
If cooking results aren't what you expect:
• Is the oven level?
• Are you using pans recommended in the
Cooking Guide?
• If baking, have you allowed 1 '/2 to 2 inches
(4-5 cm) on all sides of the pans for air
circulation?
• Does the oven temperature seem too low or
too high? See page4. "Resetting the oven
temperature controls."
• Have you preheated the oven as the rec
ipe calls for?
• Are the pans the size called for in the
recipe?
• Are you following a tested recipe from a
reliable source?
• Do the cooking utensils have smooth, flat
bottoms?
See the Cooking Guide for more information
on cooking problems and how to solve them.
