• Be certain that your appliance is properly installed and grounded by a qualified technician.

• Do not repair or replace any part of the appliance unless specifically

recommended in the manual. All other servicing should be performed by a qualified technician.

• Always disconnect power from the appliance before servicing.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

WARNING

This product contains chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer.

Wash hands after handling.

• DO NOT TOUCH HEATING ELEMENTS OR INTERIOR SURFACES OF THE OVEN.

Heating elements may be hot even though they are dark in color. Interior surfaces of an oven become hot enough to cause burns. During and after use, do not touch or let clothing or other flammable materials contact heating elements or interior surfaces of oven until they have had sufficient time to cool. Other surfaces, such as oven vent openings and surfaces near these openings, oven doors, and windows of oven doors, also get hot and may cause burns if not cooled.

• Use care when opening the oven door. Let hot air or steam escape from the oven before removing or replacing food in the oven.

• DO NOT heat unopened food containers. Pressure in the containers may cause them burst which may result in injury.

• DO NOT force the door open. This can damage the automatic door locking system. Use care when opening the oven door after the self cleaning cycle. Stand to the side of the oven when opening the door to allow hot air or steam to escape.

The oven may still be VERY HOT.

• DO NOT use harsh etching, abrasive cleaners or sharp metal scrapers to clean

the oven door glass since they can scratch the surface. Scratches may cause the glass to shatter.

• Be careful when removing and lifting the door.

• DO NOT lift the door by the handle. The door is very heavy.

• DO NOT use utensils for removing refuse (ash, food etc.)

• Refer to the installation manual for proper anti-tip bracket installation.

• Never remove the oven legs. The range will not be secured to the anti-tip bracket if the legs are removed.

CAUTION

• DO NOT line the oven walls, racks, bottom, or any other part of the oven with

aluminum foil or any other material. Doing so will disrupt heat distribution, produce poor baking results and cause permanent damage to the oven interior

(aluminum foil will melt to the interior surface of the oven).

• Never attempt to dry a pet in the oven.


5

WARNING

• DO NOT step or sit on the oven door. Install the anti-tip bracket packed with range.

- The range could be tipped and injury might result from spilled hot liquid, food, or the range itself.

- If the range is pulled away from the wall for cleaning, service, or any other reason, ensure that the anti-tip bracket are properly re-engage when the range is pushed back against the wall.

- Do not rest large, heavy items such as whole turkeys on the open oven door. The range could tip forward and cause injury.

• NEVER use your appliance for warming or heating the room.

• DO NOT use water on grease fires. If an oven fire occur, leave the oven door closed and turn the oven off. If the fire continues, throw baking soda on the fire or use a fire extinguisher.

• Only use dry pot holders. Moist or damp pot holders on hot surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do not let the pot holder touch hot heating elements. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth to remove food.

• If the door glass, cooktop glass, surface, or oven heating unit of the range are damaged, discontinue use of the range and call for service.

• Do not operate the oven without the charcoal heater mesh.

• Do not allow anyone to climb, stand or hang on the door, storage drawer or cooktop. They could damage the range and even tip it over, causing severe personal injury.

• Do not open the oven door during the EasyClean™ cycle. During the EasyClean™ cycle, the oven becomes hot enough to cause burns. Wait until the cycle is over before wiping the inside surface of the oven. Failure to do so may result in burns.

REMOVE FLAMMABLE AND EXPLOSIVE

MATERIAL FROM THE APPLIANCE

WARNING

• Be certain that all packing materials are removed from the appliance before operating. Keep plastic, clothes, paper, and other flammable materials away from parts of the appliance that may become hot.

• Do not store or use flammable material in the oven or near or on the cooktop.

Flammable materials include paper, plastic, pot holders, linens, wall coverings, curtains, and gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids such as grease or cooking oil. These materials can be ignited when the oven and cooktop are in use.

• Wear proper apparel. Do not wear loose-fitting or hanging garments which may ignite if they contact hot surfaces and cause severe burns.

• Metal objects such as unopened cans should not be left on the surface unit or heated in the oven. Pressure in the containers may cause them to burst, resulting in injury.

• Do not use the oven for drying clothes. Only use the oven for its intended purpose.

6


ELECTRICAL SAFETY

• Protective Liners. Do not use aluminum foil or any other material to line the oven bottoms. Improper installation of these liners may result in a risk of electric shock or fire.

• Do Not allow aluminum foil or the temperature probe to contact heating elements.

• Before replacing your oven light bulb, switch off the electrical power to the

oven at the main fuse or circuit breaker panel. Failure to do so can result in severe personal injury, death, or electrical shock.

PAN PLACEMENT

• Do not place food or cookware on the bottom of the oven cavity. Doing so will cause permanent damage to the oven bottom finish.

• When cooking food in the warming drawer, always use a baking sheet or pan

with 4 raised sides. This will prevent food from sliding off.

DEEP FAT FRYERS

• Use extreme caution when moving or disposing hot grease.

• Always heat fat slowly, and watch while is getting heat.

• If frying combinations of oils and fats, stir together before heating.

• Use a deep fat thermometer, if possible, to prevent overheating fat beyond the smoking point.

• Use the less possible amount of fat for effective shallow or deep-fat frying. Filling the pan with too much fat can cause spillovers when food is added.

SAFETY DURING USE

• Do not touch the oven racks while they are hot.

• If the rack must be moved while the oven is hot, do not let the potholder

contact the hot heating element in oven.

• Always use potholders or oven mitts when removing food from the oven or

the center warming element. Cookware will be hot.

• Use caution with the TIMED BAKE or DELAYED TIMED BAKE features. Use the

automatic timer when cooking cured or frozen meats and most fruits and vegetables.

Foods that can easily spoil, such as milk, eggs, fish, meat or poultry, should be chilled in the refrigerator first. Even when chilled, they should not stand in the oven for more than 1 hour before cooking begins, and should be removed promptly when cooking

is complete. Eating spoiled food can result in sickness from food poisoning.


7

• If an oven fire occurs, leave the oven door closed and turn the oven off. If the fire continues, throw baking soda on the fire or use a fire extinguisher.

• If an oven fire occur, DO NOT put water or flour on the fire. Flour may be explosive and water can spread a grease fire and cause personal injury.

• DO NOT use the broiler pan without the grid. DO NOT cover the grid with aluminum foil.

• Do not use plastic to cover food. Use foil or oven-resistant lids only.

• If the oven is heavily soiled with oil, self clean the oven before using the oven again. It could cause a risk of fire.

• Wipe up heavy soil on the oven bottom of the oven before using the Self Clean function.

• Use proper pan sizes. For smaller pots and pans, use the smaller heating elements.

For larger pots and pans, use the larger heating elements. Select utensils that have flat bottoms large enough to cover the heating elements. The use of undersized utensils will expose a portion of the heating element to direct contact and may result in ignition of clothing.

• Never leave surface units unattended at high heat settings. Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spill that may ignite.

• Glazed cooking utensils. Only certain types of glass, glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed utensils are suitable for range-top service without breaking due to the sudden change in temperature.

• Utensil handles should be turned inward and not extend over adjacent surface

units. To reduce the risk of burns, ignition of flammable materials, and spillage due to unintentional contact with the utensil, the handle of a utensil should be positioned so that it is turned inward, and does not extend over adjacent surface units.

CHILD SAFETY

WARNING

• Keep children and pets away from the oven.

• Accessible parts may become hot when the grill is in use.

• During normal operation (self-clean cycle, bake, etc.)DO NOT touch the hot surface between the bottom of the oven door and the top of the drawer on the front of the oven. Doing so is a burn hazard and will cause injury.

• Never let a child hang on the oven door.

• Do not allow children crawl into the oven.

CAUTION

• DO NOT leave small children unattended near the oven.

• During the self clean cycle, the outside of the oven can become very hot when you touch it.

• NEVER leave children alone or unsupervised near the appliance when it is in use or is still hot. Children should never be allowed to sit or stand on any part of the appliance as they could be injured or burned.

8


• NEVER store items of interest to children in cabinets above the range. Children climbing on the range or on the oven door to reach items could be seriously injured.

• Let hot utensils cool in a safe place, out of reach of small children.

• Children should not be allowed to play with controls or other parts of the appliance.

GLASS/CERAMIC COOKING SURFACES

Stand to the side of the range when opening the oven door. The hot air and steam that escape can cause burns to hands, face and eyes.

WARNING

• DO NOT TOUCH SURFACE UNITS OR AREAS NEAR UNITS.

• Surface units may be hot even though they are dark in color. Areas near surface units may become hot enough to cause burns. During and after use, do not touch, or let clothing or other flammable materials contact surface units or areas near units until they have had sufficient time to cool. This includes the cooktop and the area above the oven door.

• Do not cook on a broken cooktop. If the cooktop is broken, cleaning solutions and spillovers may penetrate the broken cooktop and create a risk of electric shock.

Contact a qualified technician immediately.

• Clean cooktop with caution. Do not use sponges or cloth to wipe spills on a hot cooking area. Use a proper metal scraper.

• DO NOT use the glass cooktop surface as a cutting board.

• DO NOT place or store items that can melt or catch fire on the glass cooktop, even when it is not being used.

• DO NOT turn surface units on before placing cookware.

• DO NOT store heavy items above the cooktop surface that could fall and damage it.

• DO NOT place aluminum foil or plastic items such as salt and pepper shakers, spoon holders, or plastic wrappings or any other material on the range when it is in use.

• Be sure you know which control pads operate each surface unit. Make sure you turn on the correct surface unit.

• NEVER cook directly on the glass. Always use cookware.

• Always place the pan in the center of the surface unit you are cooking on.

NEVER leave surface units unattended at high heat setting. Proper contact of utensil to burner also will improve efficiency.

- Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers that may catch on fire.

• Always turn the surface units off before removing cookware.

• DO NOT use plastic wrap to cover food.

- Plastic may melt onto the surface and be very difficult to remove.

• DO NOT touch surface units until it has cooled down.

• The surface elements may still be hot and burns may occur if the glass surface is touched before it has cooled down sufficiently.

• Immediately clean the spills on cooking area to prevent a tough cleaning chore later.


9

• If cabinet storage is provided directly above the cooking surface, use it only for items that are not frequently used and can be safely stored in an area subjected to heat. Temperatures may be unsafe for volatile items such as flammable liquids, cleaners or aerosol sprays.

• When warming foods do not use containers that seal. Allow venting for heated air to escape.

• Some cleaners can produce dangerous fumes if applied to a hot surface.

• DO NOT use a steel-wool pad.

- It will scratch the surface.

• DO NOT use scrub pads or abrasive cleaning pads.

- They may damage your glass cooktop surface.

• Cookware with rough or bottoms can mark or scratch the cooktop surface.

USING THE PROPER COOKWARE

Using the proper cookware can prevent many problems, such as food taking longer to cook or achieving inconsistent results. Proper pans will reduce cooking times and cook food more evenly. Stainless steel is recommended.

Check pans for flat bottoms by using a straight edge or ruler

1. Place a ruler across the bottom of the pan.

2. Hold the ruler and pan up to the light.

3. No light should be visible between the ruler and the pan.

NOTE

• Do not use a small pan on a large element. Not only does this waste energy, but it can also result in spillovers burning onto the cooking area.

• The bottom surfaces of cookware should be flat. Do not use cookware that is oversized or uneven such as rounded-bottom woks, cookware with a rippled bottom, or oversized canners and griddles.

• Do not use foil or foil-type containers. Foil may melt onto the glass. Do not use the cooktop if metal has melted on it. Call an authorized Service Center.

Recommended cookware

Flat bottom and straight sides.

Heavy-gauge pans.

Do not use

Curved, grooved, or warped pan bottoms. Pans with uneven bottoms do not cook efficiently and sometimes may not boil liquid.

Very thin-gauge metal or glass pans.

Pans that are smaller or larger than the element.

Pan sizes that match the amount of food to be prepared and the size of the surface element.

Weight of handle does not tilt pan. Pan is well balanced.

Tight-fitting lids.

Flat bottom woks.

Cookware with loose or broken handles. Heavy handles that tilt the pan.

Loose-fitting lids.

Woks with a ring-stand bottom.

CLEAR OFF button.

NOTE

The oven fan will run while convection baking. The fan will stop when the door is open, but the heat will not turn off. In some cases, the fan may shut off during a convection bake cycle.

Baking Tips

• Baking time and temperature will vary depending on the ingredients, size, and shaped of the baking pan used.

• Check for food doneness at the minimum recipe time.

• Use metal bakeware (with or without a nonstick finish), heatproof glass-ceramic, ceramic or other bakeware recommended for oven use.

• Dark metal pans or nonstick coatings will cook food faster with more browning. Insulated bakeware will slightly lengthen the cooking time for most foods.

NOTE

The oven bottom has a porcelain-enamel finish.

To make cleaning easier, protect the oven bottom from excessive spillovers by placing a cookie sheet on the rack below the rack you are cooking on. This is particularly important when baking a fruit pie or other foods with a high acid content. Hot fruit fillings or other foods that are highly acidic may cause pitting and damage to the porcelain-enamel surface and should be wiped up immediately.

Tips for Convection Baking

• Cookies and biscuits should be baked on pans with no sides or very low sides to allow heated air to circulate around the food. Food baked on pans with a dark finish will cook faster.

• When using Convection Bake with a single rack, place oven rack in position C. If cooking on multiple racks, place the oven racks in positions B and D (for 2 racks).

• Multiple oven rack cooking may slightly increase cook times for some foods.

• Cakes, cookies and muffins will have better results when using multiple racks.

USING THE OVEN

BROIL

The Broil function uses intense heat from the upper heating element to cook food. BROIL works best for tender cuts of meat, fish, and thinly cut vegetables.

Some models may feature a hybrid broiler consisting of an inner broiler that utilizes a carbon heating element which provides instantaneous heat, and a traditional outer broiling element. During normal broiler operation, it is normal for either element to cycle off intermittently.

CAUTION

• DO NOT use a broiler pan without a grid. Oil can cause a grease fire.

• DO NOT cover the grid and broiler pan with aluminum foil. Doing so will cause a fire.

• Always use a broiler pan and grid for excess fat and grease drainage. This will help to reduce splatter, smoke, and flare-ups.

SPEED BROIL (ON SOME MODELS)

The Speed Broil setting is designed to reduce the amount of time it takes to broil foods. By utilizing the infrared broil element, which provides heat instantaneously, there is no need for preheating.

To set the oven to BROIL / SPEED BROIL

1. Open the oven door to the broil stop position (about

10 degrees from the closed position).

2. Press the BROIL or SPEED BROIL button once for Hi or twice for Lo.

3. Press the START button. The oven will begin to heat.

4. If using Broil, it is best to let the oven preheat for approximately five minutes before cooking food.

5. When cooking is complete, or to cancel at any time, press the CLEAR OFF button.

Smoking

Due to the intense heat associated with broiling, it is normal to experience smoke during the cooking process.

This smoke is a natural byproduct of searing and should not cause you to worry. If you are experiencing more smoke than you are comfortable with, use the following tips to reduce the amount of smoke in your oven.

1. Always use a broiler pan. Do not use saute pans or regular baking sheets for safety reasons.

2. NEVER use a broiler pan that is not thoroughly cleaned and at room temperature at the beginning of cooking.

3. ALWAYS run your cooktop ventilation system or vent hood during broiling.

4. Keep the interior of your oven as clean as possible.

Leftover debris from prior meals can burn or catch fire.

5. Avoid fatty marinades and sugary glazes. Both of these will increase the amount of smoke you experience. If you would like to use a glaze, apply it at the very end of cooking.

6. If you are experiencing significant smoke with any food item, consider:

• Lowering the broiler to the LO setting.

• Lowering the rack position to cook the food further away from the broiler.

• Using the HI broil setting to achieve the level of searing you desire, and then either switching to the

LO broil setting, or switching to the BAKE function.

7. As a rule, fattier cuts of meat and fish will produce more smoke than leaner items.

8. Adhere to the recommended broil settings and cooking guidelines in the chart on the following page whenever possible.

Broiling Tips

Beef

• Steaks and chops should always be allowed to rest for five minutes before cutting into them and eating. This allows the heat to distribute evenly through the food and creates a more tender and juicy result.

• Consider removing thick pieces of meat from the refrigerator 30 minutes prior to cooking. This will help them cook more quickly and evenly, and will produce less smoke when broiling. Please note that cooking times will likely be shorter than the times indicated in the Broiling Chart.

• For bone-in steaks or chops that have been “Frenched”

(all meat removed from around the bone), wrap the exposed sections of bone in foil to reduce burning.

Seafood

• When broiling skin-on fish, always use the Medium broil setting and always broil the skin side last.

• Seafood is best consumed immediately after cooking.

Allowing seafood to rest after cooking can cause the food to dry out.

• It is a good idea to rub a thin coating of oil on the surface of the broiling pan before cooking to reduce sticking, especially with fish and seafood. You can also use a light coating of non-stick pan spray.

Vegetables

• Toss your vegetables lightly in oil before cooking to improve browning.

CARE AND CLEANING

CLEANING THE GLASS/CERAMIC

COOKTOP

CAUTION

• DO NOT use scrub pads or abrasive cleaning pads.

They may damage your cooktop surface.

• For your safety, wear an oven mitt or potholder while cleaning the hot cooking surface.

Use Ceramic Cooktop Cleaner on the glass cooktop.

Other creams may not be as effective or may scratch, damage or stain the cooktop surface.

To maintain and protect the surface of the glass cooktop, follow these steps:

1. Before using the cooktop for the first time, clean it with a ceramic cooktop cleaner. This helps protect the top and makes cleanup easier.

2. Daily use of ceramic cooktop cleaner will help keep the cooktop looking new.

3. Shake the cleaning cream well. Apply a few drops of cleaner directly to the cooktop.

4. Use a paper towel to clean the entire cooktop surface.

5. Rinse with clear water and use a dry cloth or paper towel to remove all cleaning residue.

NOTE

DO NOT heat the cooktop until it has been cleaned thoroughly.

CARE AND CLEANING

29

Burned-on Residue

1. While the cooktop is still hot, remove any burnton deposits or spilled food from the glass/ceramic cooking surface with a suitable metal razor scraper

(similar to scraping paint off of a windowpane - it will not damage the decorated cooking surface).

Hold the scraper at an approximate 30° angle to the cooktop.

NOTE

• Do not use a dull or nicked blade.

• To prevent burns, please wear an oven mitt or potholder while using the metal scraper.

2. When the cooking surface has cooled down, apply a few dabs (about the size of a dime) of an approved cleaner in each burner area and work the cleaning cream over the cooktop surface with a damp paper towel.

IMPORTANT:

If any sugar or food containing sugar (preserves, ketchup, tomato sauce, jellies, fudge, candy, syrups, chocolate,etc.), plastic or foil melts on the cooktop, remove the molten material IMMEDIATELY with a metal razor scraper (it will not damage the decorated cooking surface) while the cooking surface is still hot to avoid the risk of damage to the glass-ceramic surface. For your safety, please wear an oven mitt or potholder while cleaning the hot cooking surface.

NOTE

Approved cleaners:

• Weiman CookTop Cleaning Cream

(www.weiman.com)

• Cerama Bryte (www.ceramabryte.com)

• Golden Ventures Cerama Bryte

• Easy-Off 3 in 1 Glass Top Cleaner Spray

(www.easyoff.us).

3. Clean with clear water and wipe the cooktop surface with a clean, dry paper towel.

CARE AND CLEANING

Metal Marks and Scratches

1. Be careful not to slide pots and pans across the cooktop. Doing so will leave metal markings on the cooktop surface. To help remove these marks, use a ceramic cooktop cleaner with a cleaning pad for ceramic cooktops.

2. If pots with a thin overlay of aluminum or copper are allowed to boil dry, the overlay may leave black discoloration on the cooktop. This should be removed immediately before heating again or the discoloration may be permanent.

CAUTION

Cookware with rough or uneven bottoms can mark or scratch the cooktop surface.

CAUTION

• DO NOT leave small children unattended near the appliance. During the Self Clean cycle, the outside of the range can become very hot to touch.

• If you have pet birds, move them to another well ventilated room. The health of some birds is extremely sensitive to the fumes given off during the Self Clean cycle of any range.

• DO NOT line the oven walls, racks, bottom or any other part of the range with aluminum foil or any other material. Doing so will destroy heat distribution, produce poor baking results and cause permanent damage to the oven interior

(aluminum foil will melt to the interior surface of the oven).

• DO NOT force the door open. This can damage the automatic door locking system. Use care when opening the oven door after the Self Clean cycle.

Stand to the side of the oven when opening the door to allow hot air or steam to escape. The oven may still be VERY HOT.

• Do not slide metal or glass across the cooktop surface.

• Do not use cookware with any dirt build up on bottom.

SELF CLEAN

The self clean cycle uses extremely hot temperatures to clean the oven cavity. While running the Self Clean cycle, you may notice smoking or an odor. This is normal; especially if the oven is heavily soiled.

During Self Clean, the kitchen should be well ventilated to minimize the odors from cleaning.

Before starting Self Clean:

• Remove the oven racks, broiler pan, broiler grid, all cookware, aluminum foil or any other material from the oven.

• The kitchen should be well ventilated to minimize the odors from cleaning.

• Wipe any heavy spillovers on the bottom of the oven.

• Make sure that the oven light bulb cover is in place and the oven light is off.

• The oven light cannot be turned on during a self clean cycle. The oven light cannot be turned on until the oven temperature has cooled below 500˚F (260˚C) after a self clean cycle is complete.

During the self clean cycle, the cooktop elements and warming drawer cannot be used.

NOTE

• Remove oven racks and accessories before starting the self clean cycle.

• If oven racks are left in the oven cavity during the self clean cycle, they will discolor and become difficult to slide in and out.

• Clean the frame of the oven and door with hot soapy water. Rinse well.

• Do not clean the gasket. The fiberglass material of the oven door gasket cannot withstand abrasion.

It is essential for the gasket to remain intact. If you notice it becoming worn or frayed, replace it.

• Wipe up any heavy spillovers on the oven bottom.

• Make sure that the oven light bulb cover is in place and the oven light is off.

CARE AND CLEANING

31

During Self Clean

• The self clean cycle uses extremely hot temperatures to clean the oven cavity. While running the Self Clean cycle, you may notice smoking or an odor. This is normal, especially if the oven is heavily soiled.

• As the oven heats, you may hear sounds of metal parts expanding and contracting. This is normal and will not damage the oven.

• Do not force the oven door open when LOCKED is displayed. The oven door will remain locked until the oven temperature has cooled. Forcing the door open will damage the door.

NOTE

• The Self Clean cycle cannot be started if the Lockout feature is active.

• Once the Self Clean cycle is set, the oven door will lock automatically. You will not be able to open the oven door until the oven is cooled. The lock will release automatically.

• Once the door has been locked, the LOCKED indicator light will stop flashing and remain on.

Allow about 15 seconds for the oven door lock to activate.

• If the clock is set for a 12 hour display (default) the

Delayed Self Clean can never be set to start more than 12 hours in advance.

After the Self Clean cycle

• The oven door will remain locked until oven temperature has cooled.

• You may notice some white ash in the oven. Wipe it off with a damp cloth or a soap-filled steel wool pad after the oven cools. If the oven is not clean after one clean cycle, repeat the cycle.

• If oven racks were left in the oven and do not slide smoothly after a clean cycle, wipe racks and rack supports with a small amount of vegetable oil to make them glide more easily.

• Fine lines may appear in the porcelain because it went through heating and cooling. This is normal and will not affect performance.

CARE AND CLEANING

EasyClean™

LG’s EasyClean™ enamel technology gives you two cleaning options for the inside of your range. The

EasyClean™ feature takes advantage of LG’s new enamel to help lift soils without harsh chemicals, and it runs using

ONLY WATER for just 20 minutes in low temperatures to help loosen LIGHT soils before hand-cleaning.

While EasyClean™ is quick and effective for small and

LIGHT soils, the Self Clean feature can be used to remove

HEAVY built up soils. The intensity and high heat of the

Self Clean cycle may result in smoke which will require the opening up of windows to provide ventilation.

Compared to the more intense Self Clean process, your

LG oven gives you the option of cleaning with LESS HEAT,

LESS TIME, and virtually NO SMOKE OR FUMES.

When needed, your range still provides the Self Clean option for longer, more thorough oven cleaning for heavier, built up soils.

BENEFITS OF EasyClean™

• Helps loosen light soils before hand-cleaning

• EasyClean™ only uses water; no chemical cleaners

• Makes for a better Self Clean experience

- Delays the need for a Self Clean cycle

- Minimizes smoke and odors

- Can allow shorter Self Clean time

CLEANING TIPS

• Allow the oven to cool to room temperature before using the EasyClean™ cycle. If your oven cavity is above

150°F (65°C), “OVEN IS HOT- - PLEASE WAIT” will appear in the display, and the EasyClean™ cycle will not be activated until the oven cavity cools down.

• A plastic spatula can be used as a scraper to scrape off any chunks or debris before and during oven cleaning.

• Using the rough side of a non-scratch scouring pad may help to take off burnt-on stains better than a soft sponge or towel.

• Certain non-scratch scrubbing sponges, such as those made of melamine foam, available at your local stores, can also help improve cleaning.

• The range should be level to ensure that the bottom surface of the oven cavity is entirely covered by water at the beginning of the EasyClean™ cycle.

• For best results, use distilled or filtered water. Tap water may leave mineral deposits on the oven bottom.

• Soil baked on through several cooking cycles will be more difficult to remove with the EasyClean™ cycle.

• Do not open the oven door during the EasyClean™ cycle.

Water will not get hot enough if the door is opened during the cycle.

• For hard to reach areas such as the back surface of the lower oven, it is better to use the Self Clean cycle.

EasyClean™ INSTRUCTION GUIDE

1. Remove oven racks and accessories from the oven.

2. Scrape off and remove any burnt-on debris with a plastic scraper.

Suggested plastic scrapers:

• Hard plastic spatula

• Plastic pan scraper

• Plastic paint scraper

• Old credit card

3. Fill a spray bottle with 1¼ cups (10 oz or 300 ml) of water and use the spray bottle to thoroughly spray the inside surfaces of the oven.

4. Use at least ¼ cup (2oz or 50 ml) of the water to completely saturate the soil on both the walls and in the corners of the oven.

5. Spray or pour the remaining 1 cup (8 oz or 250 ml) of water onto the bottom center of the oven cavity.

The indentation on the oven bottom should be fully covered to submerge all soils. Add water if necessary.

NOTE

Use the "mist" setting on the spray bottle for better coverage.

The entire 1¼ cup (10oz or 300 ml) of water should be used for each oven cavity cleaned.

Do not spray water directly on the door. Doing so will result in water dripping to the floor.

6. Close the oven door.

Press the EasyClean™ button.

Press the START button.

CAUTION

• Some surfaces may be hot after the EasyClean™ cycle.

Wear rubber gloves while cleaning to prevent burns.

• During the EasyClean™ cycle, the oven becomes hot enough to cause burns. Wait until the cycle is over before wiping the inside surface of the oven.

Failure to do so may result in burns.

• Avoid leaning or resting on the oven door glass while cleaning the oven cavity.

CARE AND CLEANING

33

7. A tone will sound at the end of the 20-minute cycle.

Press the CLEAR OFF button to clear the display and end the tone.

8. After the cleaning cycle and during hand-cleaning, enough water should remain on the oven bottom to completely submerge all soils. Add water if necessary. Place a towel on the floor in front of the oven to capture any water that may spill out during hand-cleaning. If you are cleaning the upper oven on a double oven range, it is also best to cover the holes in the top of the lower oven door with a towel to capture any water that may drip into the door during

Hand cleaning

9. Clean the oven cavity immediately after the

EasyClean™ cycle by scrubbing with a wet, nonscratch scouring sponge or pad. (The scouring side will not scratch the finish.) Some water may spill into the bottom vents while cleaning, but it will be captured in a pan under the oven cavity and will not hurt the burner.

NOTE

DO NOT use any steel scouring pads, abrasive pads or cleaners as these materials can permanently damage the oven surface.

10. Once the oven cavity is cleaned, wipe any excess water with a clean dry towel. Replace racks and any other accessories.

11. If some light soils remain, repeat the above steps, making sure to thoroughly soak the soiled areas.

If stubborn soils remain after multiple EasyClean™ cycles, run the Self Clean cycle. Be sure that the oven cavity is empty of oven racks and other accessories, and that the oven cavity surface is dry before running the Self Clean cycle. Consult the Self

Clean section of your owner’s manual for further details.

NOTE

• If you forget to saturate the inside of the oven with water before starting EasyClean™, press the CLEAR

OFF button to end the cycle. Wait for the range to cool to room temperature and then spray or pour water into the oven and start another EasyClean™ cycle.

• The cavity gasket may be wet when the EasyClean™ cycle finishes. This is normal. Do not clean the gasket.

• If mineral deposits remain on the oven bottom after cleaning, use a cloth or sponge soaked in vinegar to remove them.

CARE AND CLEANING

CLEANING THE EXTERIOR

Painted and Decorative Trim

For general cleaning, use a cloth with hot soapy water.

For more difficult soils and built-up grease, apply a liquid detergent directly onto the soil. Leave it on for 30 to 60 minutes. Rinse with a damp cloth and dry. Do not use abrasive cleaners.

Stainless Steel Surfaces

(on some models)

To avoid scratches, do not use steel wool pads.

1. Place a small amount of stainless steel appliance cleaner or polish on a damp cloth or paper towel.

2. Clean a small area, rubbing with the grain of the stainless steel if applicable.

3. Dry and buff with a clean, dry paper towel or soft cloth.

4. Repeat as necessary.

FAQs

37

FAQs

What types of cookware are recommended for use with my cook top?

• The pans must have a flat bottom and straight sides.

• Only use heavy- gauge pans.

• The pan size must match the amount of food to be prepared and the size of the surface element.

• Use tight fitting lids.

• Only use flat-bottom woks.

Why does “HS” appear on the cooktop display?

HS (Hot Surface) will appear in the display once the element is turned off or during the self clean cycle. The

HS indicator will stay on until the surface has cooled to approximately 150°F (66°C) or when the self clean cycle ends.

Why do the heating elements appear to be turning ON and OFF when using cooktop or oven?

Depending on your cooktop element setting or the temperature selected in your oven it is a NORMAL operation of the cooking elements to cycle on and off.

This is NORMAL operation.

My new oven doesn’t cook like my old one. Is there something wrong with the temperature settings?

No, Your oven has been factory tested and calibrated.

For the first few uses, follow your recipe times and temperatures carefully. If you still think your new oven is too hot or too cold, you can adjust the oven temperature yourself to meet your specific cooking needs. Refer to the

“Oven Temperature Adjustment” section in this manual for easy instructions on how to adjust your thermostat.

Is it normal to hear a clicking noise coming from the back of my oven when I am using it?

Your new range is designed to maintain a tighter control over your oven’s temperature. You may hear your oven’s heating elements “click” on and off more frequently on your new oven. This is a NORMAL operation.

Why is the time flashing?

This means that the product has just been plugged in, or that it has experienced a power interruption. To clear the flashing time, press any button and reset the clock if needed.

During convection cooking the fan stops when I open the door. Is that normal?

Yes, this is normal. When the door is opened, the convection fan will stop until the door is closed.

Can I use aluminum foil to catch drippings in my oven cavity?

No. If aluminum foil is placed on the bottom of the oven cavity, it will burn and you will not be able to remove it. The heater for the oven is below the oven cavity and provides direct heat to the bottom of the cavity. If you already have burnt foil on the bottom, do not worry, as it will not hinder the performance.

Can I use aluminum foil on the racks?

It is not recommended to place aluminum foil inside the oven cavity. Using foil on the racks will restrict airflow which could lead to poor cooking results.

Can I leave my racks in the oven when running a Self Clean cycle?

No. Although it will not damage the racks, it will discolor them and may make them hard to slide in and out during use. Remove all items from the oven before starting a Self

Clean cycle.

What should I do if my racks are sticky and have become hard to slide in and out?

Over time, the racks may become hard to slide in and out.

Apply a small amount of olive oil to the ends of the racks.

This will work as a lubricant for easier gliding.

What should I do for hard to remove stains on my cooktop?

The cooktop should be cleaned after every use to prevent permanent staining. When cooking foods with high sugar content, such as tomato sauce, is it recommended to clean the stain while the cooktop is still warm. Use an oven mitt when cleaning to prevent burns. Refer to the

CARE AND CLEANING section of this owner's manual for further instruction.

FAQs

Why aren't the function buttons working?

Make sure that the range is not in Lockout mode. The lock symbol will show in the display if Lockout is activated.

To deactivate Lockout, press and hold the START button for three seconds. The unlock melody will sound and

UNLOCKING will appear in the display until the controls are unlocked.

My range is still dirty after running the

EasyClean™ cycle. What else should I do?

The EasyClean™ cycle only helps to loosen light soils in your oven range to assist in hand-cleaning of your oven.

It does not automatically remove all soils after the

cycle. Some scrubbing of your oven range is required after running the EasyClean™ cycle.

I tried scrubbing my oven after running

EasyClean™, but some soils still remain.

What can I do?

The EasyClean™ feature works best when the soils are fully soaked and submerged in water before running

the cycle and during hand-cleaning. If soils are not sufficiently soaked in water, it can negatively affect the cleaning performance. Repeat the EasyClean™ process using sufficient water. Sugar-based and certain greasy soils are especially hard to clean. If some stubborn soils

remain, use the Self Clean feature to thoroughly clean your oven.

Soils on my oven walls are not coming off.

How can I get my walls clean?

Soils on the side and rear walls of your oven range may be more difficult to fully soak with water. Try repeating the

EasyClean™ process with more than the ¼ cup (2 oz or

50 ml) spray recommended.

Will EasyClean™ get all of the soils and stains out completely?

It depends on the soil type. Sugar-based and certain grease stains are especially hard to clean. Also, if stains are not sufficiently soaked in water, this can negatively affect cleaning performance. If stubborn or built-up

stains remain, use the Self Clean feature. Refer to the

Self Clean section of your owner's manual.

Are there any tricks to getting some of the stubborn soils out?

Scraping the soils with a plastic scraper before and during hand-cleaning is recommended. Fully saturating soils with water is also recommended.

However, certain types of soils are harder to clean than others. For these stubborn soils, the Self Clean cycle

is recommended. Consult the Self Clean section of your owner's manual for details.

Is it safe for my convection fan, broil burner or heater element to get wet during

EasyClean™?

Yes. The convection fan, broiler burner or heater element may get a little wet during cleaning. However, direct spray onto the broil burner and heater elements is not necessary because these are self-cleaning during regular use.

Do I need to use all 1-1/4 cups (10 oz or

300 ml) of water for EasyClean™?

Yes. It is highly recommended that 1 cup (8 oz or 250

ml) of water be sprayed or poured on the bottom and an additional 1/4cup (2 oz or 50 ml) of water be

sprayed on walls and other soiled areas to fully saturate the soils for better cleaning performance.

I see “smoke” coming out of my oven range’s cooktop vents during EasyClean™.

Is this normal?

This is normal. This is not “smoke.” It is actually water vapor (steam) from the water in the oven cavity. As the oven heats briefly during EasyClean™, the water in the cavity evaporates and escapes through the oven vents.

How often should I use EasyClean™?

EasyClean™ can be performed as often as you wish.

EasyClean™ works best when your oven is LIGHTLY

soiled from such things as LIGHT grease splatter and small drops of cheese. Please refer to the EasyClean™ section in your owner's manual for more information.

What is required for EasyClean™?

A spray bottle filled with 1¼ cups (10 oz or 300 ml) of water, a plastic scraper, a nonscratch scrubbing pad and a towel. You should not use abrasive scrubbers such as heavy-duty scouring pads or steel wool. Except for a towel, all of the materials you need are included in a special cleaning kit with your new range.

Can I run the EasyClean™ cycle on both of my ovens at once?

Yes. You can run the EasyClean™ cycle on both ovens at the same time. Some oven surfaces will be hot after the cycle completes running. Avoid leaning or resting on the oven door glass while cleaning the oven cavities. You can not run the Self Clean cycle on both ovens at the same time.
