How Do You Use A Self Cleaning Kenmore Oven?
Self-cleaning ovens are available on many models of the Kenmore oven line. This time-saving feature is easy to use and safe as long as you follow directions. If you prefer not to use the self-cleaning feature or your locking mechanism is broken, there are oven cleaning products available that will achieve similar results. The use of these cleaning products involves much more physical labor and good ventilation of your home. Remove broiler pan inserts, broiler pans, utensils, searing grill and any aluminum foil, as they do not withstand the high temperature of the self-cleaning cycle. Remove oven racks also. Clean excess spills with soapy water and a washcloth, being careful not to remove, rub or damage the woven oven-door gasket. Heavy smoke or even fire can result if heavy spills are left in the oven. Also clean the oven frame and door liner, as soil in these areas can become burnt on. Start the cleaning cycle. Refer to your oven manual for display functions of your particular model.
