Keep the kitchen well ventilated

during the Self-Cleaning cycle to help get rid of heat, odors and smoke.

After the oven is cool, wipe up any residue or ash with a damp cloth.

Clean the oven before it gets heavily soiled. Cleaning a very soiled oven takes longer and results in more smoke than usual.

If the Self-Cleaning cycle does not get the oven as clean as you expected, the cycle may not have been set long enough or you may not have pre- pared the oven properly. Set the Self- Cleaning cycle longer the next time and hand-clean areas noted on page 29.

During the Seff-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 Setf- Cleaning cycle for 2!4 hours.
