is it possible to disable the self cleaning function in an electric oven?
This is for a rental unit, and I'm not comfortable with a tenant using the
self clean cycle.
thanks

Why, all it does is get hotter than normal cooking and lock the latch to
prevent the door from being opened?

Hi,
I think he is CHEAP! Wanna save some on utility bill. Cleaning cycle
uses quite a bit of electricity. Other reason maybe he likes dirty oven,
LOL!

Not all that much. According to:
http://www.mcecoop.com/your_home/calculator.html
it's about 5kWh ($.60 here) per month.

He likes to clean up after his tenants? That's sick! ;-)

an incident at a friends house recently:
there didn't seem to be all that much residue in the oven, but it darned
near burned the place down.
They pulled the unit the next day.

btw, a good answer for you might have been "I don't know".

Advice here is worth as much as you pay for it.

Is there a separate switch for self-cleaning? If so, then yes.

Otherwise, you might consider continuous cleaning next time. (although
then you'll have to keep them from cleaining it and taking off the
continuous finish.)
