Self-cleaning tips
•
Keep the kitchen well ventilated during
the Self-Cleaning cycle to help get rid
of heat, odors, and smoke.
•
Clean the oven before it gets heavily
soiled. Cleaning a very soiled oven takes
longer and could cause an increased
amount of smoke.
HOW THE CYCLE WORKS
The Self-Cleaning cycle uses very high heat to burn
away soil and grease. During the cycle, the oven
gets much hotter than it does for normal baking or
broiling. This high heat breaks up the soil or grease
and burns it away.
Your oven is automatically preset for a 4
1
⁄2-hour
Self-Cleaning cycle.
The graph at the right shows you what happens
in a 4
1
⁄2-hour Self-Cleaning cycle. Notice that the
heating stops
1
⁄2 hour before the 4
1
⁄2-hour setting
is up.
