The Self-Cleaning cycle saves you from the toil and mess that often come with hand-cleaning the oven interior. Like with the other functions of your range, you operate the Self-Cleaning cycle with the easy-to-use controls. Please review the instructions in this section to keep your oven spotless.

How the cycle

works
s t F ---

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 baking or broiling. This high heat breaks up the soil or grease and burns it away. You can adjust the cycle time to the amount of soil in your oven. You can set the cycle time anywhere between 2 and 4 hours. (See �Setting the controls� on page 21.) The graph at the right is representative of a normal, 3-hour Self-Cleaning cycle. Note that the heating stops when the 3-hour setting is up, but it takes longer for the oven to cool enough to unlock.

hand-clean seal

Before you start the SelfCleaning cycle, make sure you: l Hand-clean the areas shown. They do
not get hot enough during the cleaning cycle for soil to burn away. Use hot water and detergent or a soapy steel-wool pad for cleaning. NOTE: DO NOT clean, move or bend the seal. Poor cleaning, baking and roasting may result.
