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 3
1
2-hour
Self-Cleaning cycle.
The graph at the right shows you what happens
