00:00:32,000 --> 00:00:35,160
Speaker 1: Hi Am Marshall Brain with today's question, how does self

9
00:00:35,280 --> 00:00:40,120
Speaker 1: cleaning ovens work? The basic idea behind any self cleaning

10
00:00:40,159 --> 00:00:44,080
Speaker 1: oven is burn baby burn. The oven gets up to

11
00:00:44,159 --> 00:00:49,080
Speaker 1: a very high temperature about twice normal and incinerates everything

12
00:00:49,200 --> 00:00:52,720
Speaker 1: that's inside the oven and stuck to the walls. Self

13
00:00:52,720 --> 00:00:57,400
Speaker 1: cleaning ovens use an approximately nine hundred degree fahrenheit or

14
00:00:57,480 --> 00:01:02,560
Speaker 1: four degree celsius temperature cycle to burn off spills left

15
00:01:02,600 --> 00:01:06,360
Speaker 1: over from baking without the use of any chemicals. A

16
00:01:06,440 --> 00:01:10,280
Speaker 1: self cleaning oven is designed with a mechanical interlock system

17
00:01:10,319 --> 00:01:14,720
Speaker 1: patented in two that keeps the oven door locked and

18
00:01:14,760 --> 00:01:19,120
Speaker 1: closed during and soon after this high temperature cleaning cycle,

19
00:01:19,600 --> 00:01:24,000
Speaker 1: which can take approximately three hours. The door stays locked

20
00:01:24,040 --> 00:01:28,080
Speaker 1: to prevent people from accidentally burning themselves with a blast

21
00:01:28,200 --> 00:01:31,240
Speaker 1: of nine hundred degree air when they open the door.

22
00:01:31,520 --> 00:01:34,240
Speaker 1: The interlock will let you open the oven door again

23
00:01:34,600 --> 00:01:37,919
Speaker 1: after the oven cools down to approximately six hundred degrees

24
00:01:37,959 --> 00:01:43,040
Speaker 1: fahrenheit or three fifteen degrees celsius. If baking spills are

25
00:01:43,120 --> 00:01:46,679
Speaker 1: not wiped up after baking, there may be some smoke

26
00:01:46,880 --> 00:01:49,680
Speaker 1: during an oven cleaning cycle. It's a good idea to

27
00:01:49,720 --> 00:01:52,520
Speaker 1: remove any pets from the area when running the oven

28
00:01:52,600 --> 00:01:56,080
Speaker 1: self cleaning cycle because of this smoke and also because

29
00:01:56,080 --> 00:01:59,880
Speaker 1: of poisonous vapors. There have been reports of oven he

30
00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:04,640
Speaker 1: did teflon coded items releasing odorless fumes that are deadly

31
00:02:04,680 --> 00:02:09,120
Speaker 1: to birds. Self cleaning ovens have the added benefit of

32
00:02:09,200 --> 00:02:12,919
Speaker 1: more installation around the oven to keep that nine degree

33
00:02:12,960 --> 00:02:17,000
Speaker 1: heat in and this helps the energy efficiency for regular baking.

34
00:02:17,440 --> 00:02:21,120
Speaker 1: This is a similar concept to an increased R factor

35
00:02:21,200 --> 00:02:25,399
Speaker 1: in a home's insulation. You'll also save energy costs by

36
00:02:25,520 --> 00:02:29,160
Speaker 1: using the self cleaning cycle right after baking something else

37
00:02:29,480 --> 00:02:34,520
Speaker 1: to make use of the already partially heated oven. For

38
00:02:34,639 --> 00:02:36,880
