i bought a house with an older whirlpool oven i;m not sure how to get
it started, it has a manual slide lock on front, all dials nothing
digital, and clock in middle and start and stop timers to the right, i
think these timers have something to do with it but i can't figure it
out

See if you can find a make or model name or number on the oven, and
plug it in to the Whirlpool site search or Google. Owners manuals,
even for old products, are often available online.

Typically, there will be "Clean" option on the dial with the "Bake/Broil/etc"
control. Set it to clean, move the locking lever, and wait for a few
hours until it finishes.

Then clean out all the black dust. ;-)

Remove the oven racks first. Otherwise the metal will discolor.
