Frigidaire Gallery Series Owner's Manual - If you only use your oven a few times a year, you might want to run it once every few years or when you notice a particularly bad spill.
It's easy to know when you need to clean your oven. Food drips are burned and then caked on, causing the oven to start smoking and stinking up your whole house. Although cleaning the oven was once considered one of the most difficult chores that required stinky, harsh chemicals, self-cleaning ovens have changed the game, making the process as easy as turning on the self-cleaning cycle. Remove any pans, baking sheets mats or tin foil you keep in the oven. Although most racks can survive self-cleaning, those not approved for the process will warp, discolor and become harder to remove. Do not remove the light or light cover, though. Self-cleaning ovens take between one and five hours, at temperatures of up to 900 degrees Fahrenheit, to turn the debris inside into ash. The process will usually leave your home warm and, more importantly, will result in smoke build-up. That means you will need to open your windows and turn on your exhaust fans to let air out. As a result, it is also a good idea to perform the cycle during the middle of the day during winter or in the early morning or evening during the summer. The self-cleaning cycle will always stop on its own when it is ready, although you can always stop the process part way through. Before you do, consult your owner's manual for instructions. Always wait at least one hour to open your oven after running the self-cleaning cycle. Most models will continue to be locked during this period, but if yours is locked manually, wait until it is entirely cooled before opening. Your owner's manual may have specific instructions on how frequently to run your self-cleaning oven, but generally, you should run it as needed. If you use your oven a lot or have a lot of spills, you will need to use it more frequently. If you only use your oven a few times a year, you might want to run it once every few years or when you notice a particularly bad spill. If you notice fumes and smoke coming from your oven, this can be a good indication that it is time to clean it.
