USING THE SELF-CLEANING CYCLE How 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 preset for a 31⁄2-hour SelfCleaning cycle. However, you can adjust the cycle time to the amount of soil in your oven. You can set the cycle anywhere between 21⁄2 and 41⁄2 hours. (See "Setting the controls.") The graph at the right is representative of a normal, 31⁄2 -hour Self-Cleaning cycle. Note that the heating stops 1⁄2 hour before the 31⁄2-hour setting is up to cool the oven enough so the door can be unlocked.

USING THE SELF-CLEANING CYCLE
How 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 preset for a 3

-hour Self-
Cleaning cycle. However, you can adjust
the cycle time to the amount of soil in your
oven. You can set the cycle anywhere
between 2

and 4

hours. (See “Setting the
