USING THE SELF-CLEANING CYCLE
S
ETTING THE CONTROLS
To stop the self-cleaning cycle at
any time:
If the oven temperature is above normal broiling
temperatures, the Self-Cleaning cycle will start a
30-minute cool down. The clean and door locked
indicator lights will stay on.
H
OW 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 baking or
broiling. This high heat breaks up the soil or grease
and burns it away.
Your oven is automatically preset for a 3
Self-Cleaning cycle.
