l
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 results in more
smoke than usual.
l
If the Self-Cleaning cycle doesn’t get
the oven as clean as you expected,
the cycle may not have been set long
enough or you may not have pre-
pared the oven properly. Set the Self-
Cleaning cycle longer the next time
and hand clean areas noted on
page 29.
How it works
During the Self-Cleaning cycle, the
oven gets much hotter than it does for
baking or broiling...approximately 875°F
(468°C). This heat breaks up grease
and soil and burns it off.

temperatures and times during a Self-
Cleaning cycle for 3 hours.

longer for the oven to cool down enough to unlock.
