You should never use the clean function on the oven, even for cleaning the oven. It can severely limit the lifespan of the oven as well as cause other issues (especially if you have birds or other small animals).
Another problem with using it for "cleaning" CI is especially on more delicate, thinner casts like old Wagner, CHF, etc, it can cause severe warping of the iron.
