If no self clean feature, ? Then the ammonia process definitely works... OUTSIDE !

Self cleaning ovens work well for the oven, but not for the racks. Before trying this check your oven manual (available on line if you don't have it). Most instruct to remove the racks prior to cleaning. I ruined the racks in an expensive oven by keeping them in during the self cleaning cycle. They changed color but also no longer slid easily. Open your windows to vent the house also.
