You must refer to the user handbook or the manufacturer's instructions for your individual make and model of range to find out if it has a self-cleaning option and how to use it. The self-cleaning capabilities of different appliances can differ, therefore it's crucial to adhere to the manufacturer's instructions.

The typical procedures to turn on an oven's or range's self-cleaning feature are as follows:

1.Make sure the oven is empty by removing all racks, pans, and other things. High temperatures produced by the self-cleaning procedure have the potential to harm certain objects.

2.Lock the oven door: A safety feature on many self-cleaning ovens locks the oven door while it is being cleaned. This stops you from opening the oven door while it's blazing hot.

3.Find the "Self-Clean" or "Clean" button or setting on your range's control panel to start the self-cleaning cycle. If you're unsure about the position or phrasing, see your user handbook. Typically, you'll choose the self-cleaning option and then specify the cleaning time, which, depending on your oven type, might be anywhere between 2 and 4 hours.

4.Start the cycle by pressing the "Start" or "Clean" button after determining the duration. Then, to burn off the fat, the oven will be heated to a very high temperature (often around 900 degrees Fahrenheit)to burn off any grease and food leftovers in the oven.

5.Wait for the procedure to finish: You should refrain from opening the oven door or touching the control panel for the duration of the self-cleaning cycle, which can last for many hours. During this procedure, it's typical for the oven to release some smoke and smells.

6.After the self-cleaning cycle is complete, the oven needs time to cool down before it can be cleaned. You can remove the remaining ash and residue after it has cooled. Make sure to adhere to any special cleaning instructions listed in your user handbook.

Keep in mind that not all ranges and ovens have self-cleaning capabilities, so it's important to consult your user manual or get in touch with the manufacturer for details about your particular appliance. When using self-cleaning functions, remember to always abide by safety measures and recommendations to make sure everything works smoothly and safely.
