the way.
wipe out any residue
or ashes from the bottom.
When oven contr& 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
happening. a special part in the oven vent helps remove smoke.
DO
not cover the right-rear surface unit during the cleaning cycle.
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.
Don’t touch the range during the cleaning cycle.. it will be hot.
When the cleantng 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
tile
oven.
When the oven is
cool, clean up all that is left with a
damp cloth, cleanser. or a soap-filled steel-wool pad.
During the cleaning cycle. you may hear the sounds of metal heating
and cooling. These are normal sounds. and a lot like those you can
hear when the oL,en heats for regular cooking.
