MAINTENANCE

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.

A tone will sound at the end of the 10 minute

cycle.
• Turn the oven mode knob to the

OFF

position or press

CLEAR/OFF

to clear the

display and end the tone.

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.

Clean the oven cavity immediately after the

EasyClean cycle by scrubbing with a wet, non-

scratch 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.

Once the oven cavity is cleaned, wipe any

excess water with a clean dry towel. Replace

racks and any other accessories.

If some light soils remain, repeat the above

steps, making sure to thoroughly soak the

soiled areas.
• For models with Self Clean function

- 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. If a Self Clean option is

not available, scrape off and remove

stubborn soil using a scraper.

NOTE

• If you forget to saturate the inside of the oven

with water before starting EasyClean, turn the

oven mode knob to the

OFF

position or press

CLEAR/OFF

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.

• It is normal for the fan to operate during the

EasyClean cycle.

• Using commercial oven cleaners or bleach to

clean the oven is not recommended. Instead,

use a mild liquid cleanser with a pH value below

12.7 to avoid discoloring the enamel.

Self Clean

This feature is only available on some models.
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

• Clean only parts listed in manual. Remove the

oven racks, broiler pan, broiler grid, all
