I want to caution you folks that might opt for the self-cleaning
oven
procedure. It works very well, however, it requires considerable
ventilation to rid the area of the noxious fumes produced. In my
case
the vented range hood over my stove is totally inadequate to handle
the fumes produced.

I can alternatively use my outside gas grill, but the propane
required
is significantly more expensive then the natural gas used indoors.

I have no objection to using noxious chemicals on my cooker parts.
Once the parts have been thoroughly hosed off and then reheated,
I detect no residual effects from the chemicals. (usually oven
cleaner).
