Self Cleaning Oven* Some of the new electric stoves are equipped with self cleaning ovens. An lowa fire department recently received a call from a home where a woman had switched her new electric oven to “Mean” forgetting that she had placed a can of lard in the oven earlier in the day. This caused a considerable amount of smoke, and the fire department was called. They found the oven smoking badly, and the oven door locked. In order to get at the can of lard, they pried open the oven door which damaged the safety locks of the oven. After they examined all the circumstances, they felt it would have been unnecessary to break the oven door open and suggested that Fire Service Information carry an article explaining the operation of self-cleaning ovens.

When these ovens are switched to “clean”, the oven burners are turned on and the temperature in the oven begins to rise. At around 600 degrees a special thermostat does three things: it locks the oven door, turns on a fan to cool the outside of the oven and turns on a special catalyic burner in the oven vent to catalyse the smoke that would otherwise escape into the room. When the temperature inside the oven gets up to around 900 degrees, the burners are automa-tically-shut off and the oven cools off. When the temperatures drop again to around 600 degrees, the special thermastat shuts off the catalytic burners and the fan, and unlocks the oven door. The cleaning cycle can be interrupted manually at any time by switching the oven control to OFF. This, of course, would not shut off the special catalytic burner or unlock the oven until the temperature dropped to 600 degrees. Tn most cases it would seem that the best way of handling situations of this kind would be simply to turn off the oven control and allow the oven to cool down. Unplugging the stove itself or shutting off the main electric control would shut off the catayltic burner and allow more smoke to escape into the house. If the oven door was pried open at around 900 degrees, there is some possibility that a back draft explosion might occur. (This is a reprint from January 17, 1968 lowa State University Bulletin.) This should be of great interest to the citizens of Speedway, as this type of stove is being sold every day all over the country. Speedway Fire Department Chief Edward R. Sowell
