Oven Cleaning (Continued)
Cleaning the Self-Clean Oven (some models, Continued)
What to Expect During Cleaning
While the oven is inoperation, the oven heats to temperatures much higher than those used in normal cooking. Sounds of metal
expansion and contraction are normal. Odor isalso normal as the food soil isbeing removed. Smoke may appear through the
oven vent, located on the top of the control panel.
if heavy spillovers are not wiped up before cleaning, they may flame and cause more smoke and odor than usual. This isnormal
and safe and should not cause alarm, ifavailable, use an exhaust fan during the self-cleaning cycle.
NOTE: A smoke eliminator in the oven vent converts most of the soil into a colorless vapor.
