Whirlpool RM288PW manual How It Works, SELF-CLEANING Cycle -THREE Hour SE’ITING

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.

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