The Continuous-Cleaning Upper Oven; Using Foil - Whirlpool RE960PXV Use & Care Manual

The Continuous-Cleaning Upper Oven
Standard oven walls are coated with smooth porcelain. Your Continuous-
Cleaning oven walls are coated with a special, rougher porcelain. A fat
spatter beads up on the smooth surface, but spreads out on the rougher
surface. The bead of fat on the smooth surface chars and turns black. The
spread-out fat on the rough surface gradually burns away at medium to
high baking temperatures so the oven can return to a presentably clean
condition.
