Thanks,Bob.
But, the high-powered (sounding) fan (and the elements) that come on
when one is cleaning in your GE stove, is/are they not the same fan
that is used for convecting, or the same element involved in the high
heat in cleaning. Are they different fans and elements involved in
cooking and cleaning?
