Why aren't the function buttons working?
Make sure that the range is not in Lockout mode. The 
lock 
 will show in the display if Lockout is activated. 
To deactivate Lockout, press and hold Clear/Off for 
three seconds. The unlock melody sounds and Loc 
appears 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. 
If a self-clean feature is not available, use a scraper 
to remove stubborn soil.
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 60 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. 
Some models do not include a self-clean option. The 
EasyClean
®
 feature may not be effective in removing 
heavy, built up soil. If a self-clean option is not 
available, it may help to use EasyClean
®
 more often 
to avoid heavy soil build up.
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. If using a metal 
scraper, be careful not to damage the oven surface. 
Fully saturating soils with water is also recommended. 
• For Model : LRE3083
Certain types of soil are harder to clean than others. 
For these stubborn soils, use the Self Clean cycle. 
Consult the Self Clean section of the 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 1¼ 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 ¼ cup (2 oz or 60 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. 
However, if a self-clean option is not available on your 
oven, you may want to use the EasyClean
®
 option 
often to prevent heavy, burnt-on soil from building up. 
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 non-scratch 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.
