(maximum is 23 hours and 59 minutes) after the time of
setting, be sure to first set the control in the 24 Hr
display mode.
• If self clean was active and then interrupted by a power
failure or canceled before the oven was thoroughly
cleaned, it may be necessary to run another self clean
cycle.
• If the oven temperature was high enough when self
clean was interrupted the oven control may not allow
another self clean cycle to be set for up to 4 hours.
To avoid possible burns, use care when opening the oven
door after the self-cleaning cycle. Stand to the side of the
