how hot can an oven get
Self-cleaning, often with temperatures that go over 1000Â°, is a particular problem. The elements and the oven just get so hot â much, much hotter than the 350Â° to 500Â° range of normal baking â that sometimes fuses pop and control panels burn out. Manufacturers, Adam implied, know this and they understand that self-cleaning cycles are a problem. But, he said, customers demand self-cleaning options.
