Caring For Your Range

Continued

To stop the Self-Cleaning cycle at any time:

1. Push in and turn the Stop Time Knob clockwise until it points to the right time of day.

2. Turn the Oven Selector and Oven Temperature Control to OFF. When the Oven LOCKED Indicator Light goes off, move the Lock Lever back to the left. Do not force it. Wait until it moves easily.

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.

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.
