Hi barneswyo- GE® JK3500SFSS offers Self-clean with Steam Clean option (both ovens), so you can clean your oven the way you want. Play Video: https://www.youtube.com/embed/2EMLPJKNkkE?rel=0 - A water line is not required. Steam Clean allows for quick cleaning of minor food spills at temperatures lower than the standard self-clean feature. Simply pour 1 cup of water into the bottom of a cool oven. Close the door and select Steam Clean. The cycle lasts about 30 minutes, and loosens and softens the grime in the oven. Once the cycle is complete, wipe out the moisture and food soils with a soft cloth. Because Steam Clean uses a lower temperature, the oven door does not automatically lock, like it does in Self-Clean mode. The self-clean uses heat at temperatures above normal cooking temperatures. During the cleaning cycle the oven is heated to about 880 degrees Fahrenheit (471° C.). At this temperature, food soils inside the oven decompose, leaving behind a small amount of ash. The leftover ash can be wiped out easily with a wet cloth. Thanks for choosing GE! SUE@GEA
