46 MAINTENANCE
NOTE
• Do not use any steel scouring pads, abrasive
pads or cleaners as these materials can
permanently damage the oven surface.
11 Once the oven cavity is cleaned, wipe any
excess water with a clean dry towel. Replace
racks and any other accessories.
12 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
• 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
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
water tank, oven racks, broiler pan, broiler grid,
all cookware, aluminum foil or any other
material from the oven.
- 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.
- If you don't remove the water tank from the
oven, a beep sounds and the Self Clean cycle
does not start.
• The kitchen should be well ventilated to
minimize the odors from cleaning. Open a
window or turn on a ventilation fan or hood
before self-cleaning.
• Wipe any heavy spillovers on the bottom of the
oven.
• Make sure that the oven light cover is in place
and the oven light is off.
• Clean the frame of the oven and door with hot
soapy water. Rinse well.
WARNING
• If the oven is heavily soiled with oil, self-clean the
oven before using the oven again. The oil could
cause a fire.
• If there is a fire in the oven during self-clean,
turn the oven off and wait for the fire to go out.
Do not force the door open. Introduction of
fresh air at self-clean temperatures may lead to
a burst of flame from the oven. Failure to follow
this instruction may result in severe burns.
CAUTION
• Do not use oven cleaners. Commercial oven
cleaner or oven liner protective coating of any
kind should not be used in or around any part of
the oven.
• The oven displays an
F error code and sounds
three long beeps during the self-cleaning
process if it malfunctions in the self-clean mode.
Switch off the electrical power to the main fuse
or breaker and have the oven serviced by a
qualified technician.
• If the self cleaning mode malfunctions, turn the
oven off and disconnect the power supply. Have
it serviced by a qualified technician.
• It is normal for parts of the oven to become hot
during a Self Clean cycle. Avoid touching the
door, window or oven vent area during a Self
Clean cycle.
