Caring For Your Oven

How it works

During the Self-Cleaning cycle, the oven gets

much hotter than it does for baking, roasting 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 Self-Cleaning cycle for three

hours.

to cool down enough to unlock.
