NOTE: To clean the trough, the oven door must be removed first. See the "Oven Door" section.

OVEN RACKS

Cleaning Method:

• Steel-wool pad.
• For racks that have discolored and are harder to slide, a light coating of vegetable oil applied to the rack guides will help them slide.

AIR FRY BASKET

(on some models)
NOTE: Rinse off basket with soap and water before first use.

Cleaning Method:

• Dishwasher safe, if discoloration occurs, soak the air fry basket in a 50/50 solution of a calcium, lime, rust remover product, and water for 4-5 minutes and repeat as necessary. Once complete, wash the basket with soap and water before use.

OVEN CAVITY OVEN DOOR INTERIOR

Do not use oven cleaners.
Food spills should be cleaned after the oven cools. At high temperatures, foods react with porcelain, and staining, etching, pitting, or faint white spots can result.

Cleaning Method:

• Self-Cleaning cycle:
  See the "Self-Cleaning Cycle" section first. Remove racks or they will discolor and become harder to slide. If this happens, a light coating of vegetable oil applied to the rack guides will help them slide.
• For optimal door cleaning results, wipe away any deposits with a damp sponge before running cycle.

+POWERED ATTACHMENTS

(on some models)
To avoid damage to the nonstick surfaces, do not use abrasive cleaners, steel-wool pads, gritty washcloths, or abrasive paper towels. Food spills should be cleaned when the +Powered Attachment cools.

Electrical Shock Hazard
Do not immerse heating element in water or place in dishwasher.
Doing so can result in death or electrical shock.
Do not soak or immerse the Heating Element.

Cleaning Method:

• Soap, water, and a soft cloth or sponge: Wipe the Heating Element when it is cool. All attachments can be cleaned with soap, water, and a soft cloth or sponge.

• Affresh^® Cooktop Cleaner: Stubborn soils on the +Baking Stone Attachment can be cleaned with baking soda and a non scratch heavy duty scrub sponge. Rub cream into surface with a damp paper towel or soft cloth. Continue rubbing until white film disappears.

See the Smart Oven+ Powered Attachments User Instructions for more detailed instructions.

Self-Cleaning Cycle

Do not touch the oven during the Self-Cleaning cycle.
Keep children away from the oven during Self-Cleaning cycle.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in burns.

The health of some birds is extremely sensitive to the fumes given off during the Self-Cleaning cycle. Exposure to the fumes may result in death to certain birds. Always move birds to another closed and well-ventilated room.
Self-clean the oven before it becomes heavily soiled. Heavy soil results in longer cleaning and more smoke.
Keep the kitchen well-ventilated during the Self-Cleaning cycle to help get rid of heat, odors, and smoke.
Do not block the oven vent(s) during the Self-Cleaning cycle. Air must be able to move freely. See the "Oven Vents" section.
Do not clean, rub, damage, or move the oven door gasket. The door gasket is essential for a good seal.

Prepare Oven:

• Remove the broiler pan, grid, cookware and bakeware, and, on some models, the temperature probe from the oven.
• Remove oven racks to keep them shiny and easy to slide. See the "General Cleaning" section for more information.
• Remove any foil from the oven because it may burn or melt, damaging the oven.
• Hand clean inside door edge and the 11/₂" (3.8 cm) area around the inside oven cavity frame, being certain not to move or bend the gasket. This area does not get hot enough during high-temp self-cleaning to remove soil. Do not let water, cleaner, etc., enter slots on door frame. Use a damp cloth to clean this area.
• Wipe out any loose soil to reduce smoke and avoid damage. At high temperatures, foods react with porcelain. Staining, etching, pitting, or faint white spots can result. This is normal and will not affect cooking performance.

• Oven temperature must be below 500°F (260°C) to program a clean cycle.
• For double ovens only: Only 1 oven can be cleaned at a time.
• For double ovens only: Both oven doors will lock when either oven is running the Self-Cleaning cycle.

How the Cycle Works

The heating and cooling of porcelain on steel in the oven may result in discoloring, loss of gloss, hairline cracks, and popping sounds.
The Self-Cleaning cycle uses very high temperatures, burning soil to a powdery ash.
NOTE: 12 hours must pass before the next Self-Clean can begin.
Once the oven has completely cooled, remove ash with a damp cloth. To avoid breaking the glass, do not apply a cool damp cloth to the inner door glass before it has completely cooled.
The oven lights will not work during the Self-Cleaning cycle.
NOTE: The oven has a two-speed cooling fan motor. During the Self-Cleaning cycle, the fan(s) will operate at its highest speed to increase airflow to better exhaust the hotter air through the oven vent(s). An increase in noise may be noticeable during and after the Self-Cleaning cycle until the oven cools.
Before Self-Cleaning, make sure the door is closed completely or it will not lock and the cycle will not begin. When the oven is locked, the doors of the oven cannot be opened. To avoid damage to the doors, do not force the doors open when the oven is locked.

To Self-Clean:
NOTE: For specific instructions on your model's Self-Clean cycle, please see your model's online Control Guide.

1. Close door, and (for select models) Touch the Tools keypad.
2. Select Self-Clean icon.
3. (For Double-Ovens) Select Upper Cavity or Lower Cavity. On some models, select the "1" or "2" number keypad to select desired oven to clean.
4. Select duration or level of cleaning. This will impact the duration which can range from 3 to 6 hours including cool down. If this model offers "Steam Clean" please check the "Steam Clean" section.
5. (On select models) follow the prompts on the oven display to prepare the oven.
6. Select Start OR (on select models) select Delay Start to set a delayed Self-Cleaning cycle. See the "To Delay Start SelfCleaning Cycle" section. The oven doors will automatically lock.
   NOTE: It may take a couple moments for the oven door to automatically lock after starting the Self-Clean Cycle. The doors will automatically unlock once the Self-Cleaning cycle is complete and the oven is cool.
7. When the oven is completely cooled, remove ash with a damp cloth.

Delay Start: (on select models)
Depending on your model, your oven may be able to Delay Start the Self-Cleaning cycle. You may be able to use one of the methods listed below.
NOTE: For specific instructions on your model's Delay Start Self-Clean cycle, please see your model's online Control Guide.

Version A:

1. Follow steps 1-5 in the "To Self-Clean" section.
2. Select Delay Start.
3. Select the start time of when the Self-Cleaning cycle should begin by scrolling from left to right.
4. Select Start Delay.
   The oven doors will automatically lock after the Delay Start countdown. When the Self-Cleaning cycle is complete and the oven cools, the oven doors will unlock.
5. When the oven is completely cooled, remove ash with a damp cloth.

Version B:

1. Close the oven doors, and then press Delay Start.
2. (For Double-Ovens) Select Upper Cavity or Lower Cavity. On some models, select the "1" or "2" number keypad to select the desired oven to clean.
3. Select the number keypads to enter the desired amount of time by which you want to delay the start.
4. Press Self Clean.
5. Select level of cleaning.
6. Select Start for the selected oven.
   The oven doors will automatically lock after the Delay Start countdown.
   When the Self-Cleaning cycle is complete and the oven cools, the oven doors will unlock.
7. When the oven is completely cooled, remove ash with a damp cloth.

To Stop Self-Cleaning Anytime:
Touch the Oven Cancel Keypad for single oven models, or the keypads for double oven models. If the oven temperature is too high, the door will remain locked. It will not unlock until the oven cools.

Steam Clean

(on some models)
The Steam Clean feature is designed for light oven cavity bottom cleaning on models that have hidden bake in both ovens.
Allow the oven to cool to room temperature before using the Steam Clean feature. If your oven cavity is above 200°F (93°C), the Steam Clean feature will not activate until it cools down.
Remove all racks and accessories from the oven cavity.
For best results, use 10 oz (295.7 mL) of distilled or filtered water. Do not use oven cleaners.
The Steam Clean feature will take approximately 1 hour. A tone will sound at the end of the cycle.

Because the water in the oven bottom is hot, do not open the oven door during the Steam Clean cycle.
Touch the Oven Cancel keypad for single oven models and the Upper/Lower keypads for double oven models at any time to end the cycle. The display will return to the time of day.

Helpful Hints

• Once the Steam Clean cycle is complete and the oven is completely cooled, remove all remaining water in the bottom of the oven with a sponge or cloth.
• Wipe any remaining moisture from the oven door interior, oven cavity interior sides, and cooktop.
• Use a soft brush or nylon scrubber to wipe the oven interior. This may help with more stubborn stains.
• It is recommended to use distilled or filtered water, as tap water may leave mineral deposits on the oven bottom. Use a cloth soaked with vinegar or lemon juice to remove any mineral deposits that may be left after the Steam Clean cycle.
• If the oven is heavily soiled, use the Self-Cleaning cycle. The Steam Clean cycle may be used first to eliminate most of the debris, resulting in a more effective self-cleaning.

To Steam Clean:

1. Open the oven door of the selected oven and remove all racks and accessories from the oven cavity.
2. Pour 10 oz (295.7 mL) of distilled or filtered water into the oven bottom. Then close the oven door.
3. Touch the Tools keypad.
   (On double-oven models) Select Upper Cavity or Lower Cavity.
4. Select STEAM CLEAN.
5. Select START.
6. After approximately 1 hour, a tone will sound to signal the end of the cycle. Touch the keypad for single oven models and the keypads for double oven models to clear the display.
7. When the oven is completely cooled, remove any excess water with a sponge or cloth and wipe down oven interior. If needed, use a non-scratch scrubbing pad to remove stubborn soils.

Electrical Connection

To properly install your oven, you must determine the type of electrical connection you will be using and follow the instructions provided for it here.

• Oven must be connected to the proper electrical voltage and frequency as specified on the model/serial/rating plate. The model/serial/rating plate is located under the control panel on single ovens and under the control panel on the upper oven cavity on double ovens. See the following illustrations.

• Models rated from 7.3 to 9.6 kW at 240 V (5.4 to 7.4 kW at 208 V) require a separate 40 A circuit. Models rated at 4.8 kW and below at 240 V (3.6 kW and below at 208 V) require a separate 20 A circuit.
• A circuit breaker is recommended.
• Connect directly to the fused disconnect (or circuit breaker box) through flexible, armored, or nonmetallic sheathed, copper cable (with grounding wire). See "Make Electrical Connection" section.
• Flexible conduit from the oven should be connected directly to the junction box.
• Fuse both sides of the line.
• Do not cut the conduit. The length of conduit provided is for serviceability of the oven.
• A UL listed or CSA-approved conduit connector must be provided.
• If the house has aluminum wiring, follow the procedure below:
  Connect the aluminum wiring using special connectors and/or tools designed and UL listed for joining copper to aluminum.
  Follow the electrical connector manufacturer's recommended procedure. Aluminum/copper connection must conform with local codes and industry-accepted wiring practices.

INSTALLATIONS

Prepare Built-In Oven

1. Decide on the final location for the oven. Avoid drilling or cutting into house wiring during installation.
   
   Excessive Weight Hazard
   Use two or more people to move and install or uninstall appliance.
   Failure to do so can result in back or other injury.
2. To avoid floor damage, set the oven onto cardboard prior to installation. Do not use handle or any portion of the front frame for lifting.
3. Remove the shipping materials and tape from the oven. Remember to keep the corner posts and other materials that may be needed for installation.
4. Remove the hardware package from inside the bag containing literature.
5. Remove and set aside racks, attachments, and other parts from inside the oven.
6. Move oven and cardboard close to the oven's final location.

Remove Oven Door(s)

Use 2 hands to remove oven door. For double ovens, repeat the process for each door.

1. Prior to removing the oven door, prepare a surface where you will place it. This surface should be flat and covered with a soft blanket, or use the corner posts from your packaging material.
2. Fully open the oven door.
   
   1. Door hinges
3. Locate the oven door hinge locks in both corners of the oven door, and rotate the hinge locks toward the oven door to the unlocked position. If the door hinge lock is not rotated fully (see unlocked position in illustration), the door will not remove properly.

4. Gently start to close the door. The door will stop at a partially closed position.
   
5. Using 2 hands, grasp the edges of the oven door. Close the oven door slightly past the stop position to take the weight off of the door hinges, and then pull the oven door up.
   
6. Pull the oven door toward you, and then remove. You may need to gently shift door from side to side as you pull.
7. Set the oven door aside on the prepared covered work surface with the oven door resting on its handle.
8. To continue with the oven installation, go to the "Positioning Oven Feet for Multiple Cabinet Cutout Heights" section.
