How to Open the Latch on a Self-Cleaning Oven
- 1). Wait for the self-cleaning cycle to finish.
- 2). Time the oven after the self-cleaning cycle to cool down for approximately 6 hours. Depending on how well insulated the oven is, this may take longer.
- 3). Push the latch in the direction following the unlock arrow that is printed on the latch once the oven is cooled.
This latch will only open the oven once the oven is cooled down. This is a built-in safety feature. - 4). Open the oven door once you have unlatched it.
