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 bak-
ing or broiling. This high heat breaks up the soil or
grease and burns it away.
Your oven is automatically preset for a 31⁄2-hour
Self-Cleaning cycle.
The graph at the right shows you what happens
in a 31⁄2-hour Self-Cleaning cycle. Notice that the
heating stops 1⁄2hour before the 31⁄2-hour setting
is up.
