How the Self-Cleaning cycle works:

lWhen oven controls are set to “CLEAN.” the oven gets much hotter than it does for cooking. This high heat causes soil on the inside oven walls to burn off, or break up and mostly disappear. While this is happenrng. a special part in the oven vent helps remove smoke. Do

not cover the right-rear surface unit during the cleaning cycle.

l The chart below shows about what happens during a 2-hour Self- Cleaning cycle. Any time less than that shortens only the cleaning cycle. not the heating and cooling times.

lDon‘t touch the range during the cleaning cycle.. it will be hot.

lWhen the cleaning cycle is over. you will find some fine ashes in the oven. The amount of ash depends upon the amount of soil there was In the oven When the oven is cool, clean up all that is left with a

damp cloth. cleanser, or a soap-filled steel-wool pad.

lDuring the cleaning cycle. you may hear the sounds of metal heating and cooling. These are normal sounds, and a lot lrke those you can hear when the oven heats for regular cooking.

coating of salad oil.
