Can you leave oven racks in when self-cleaning?
We do not recommend leaving the oven racks in the oven during the self-clean cycle. The racks may warp and discolor due to the extreme heat created during this cycle. The racks can also damage the rack guides of the porcelain oven cavity due to expansion and contraction.
How do I deep clean my electric oven?
The best way to deep clean the inside of an oven is with a thick, homemade paste made by mixing 1 cup of baking soda with ½ cup vinegar. Mix your paste in a large bowl and then slather it evenly throughout the oven’s interior. Let sit for at least six hours and then remove with a damp sponge.
How do you get burnt on grease out of the oven?
If there are chunks of paste that won’t come off easily, put some vinegar in a spray bottle and spray it on the chunks. The vinegar will react with the baking soda and foam. Take your damp cloth again and wipe off all foam. Remove racks from the water and scrub with a cloth rag until all grease and grime is gone.
