How can I help keep children safe around the range? Children should be supervised around the range whenever it is in use, and after use until surfaces have cooled. You can also use the Lockout feature to help prevent children from accidentally turning on the cooktop or oven. The Lockout feature disables most control panel buttons and the cooktop control knobs. On some models, it also locks the oven door. Consult the Lockout section of your owner's manual for details. (In models without a self-clean option, the Lockout feature locks the controls but does not lock the oven door.) 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 1/5 of 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. TROUBLESHOOTING 53 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. 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 the full contents of the spray bottle for EasyClean®? Yes. It is highly recommended that 4/5 of water be sprayed or poured on the bottom and an additional 1/5 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 water, a scraper, a nonscratch scrubbing pad and a towel. You should not use abrasive scrubbers such as heavy-duty scouring pads or steel wool. ENGLISH
