How it works

During the Self-Cleaning cycle, the oven gets much hotter than it does for baking or broiling...approximately 875°F (46EVC). This heat breaks up grease and soil and bums it off.

This graph shows approximate temperatures and times during a Self- Cleaning cycle for 3 hours.

Self-Cleaning cycle 3-hour setting

(Approximate		temperatures	and times)
1000°F						538°C
800°F						427°C
600°F						316°C
400°F						204°C
200°F						93°C
START	1n hr	1 hr.	1 l/2 hrs. 2 hrs.	2 l/2 hrs.	3 hrs.	3 l/2 hrs. STOP

Notice that the heating stops when the 3-hour setting is up, but that it takes longer for the oven to cool down enough to unlock.
