50 MAINTENANCE Caring for the Lower Oven EasyClean® LG's EasyClean® enamel technology provides two cleaning options for the inside of the lower oven. 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 10 minutes in low temperatures to help loosen LIGHT soils before handcleaning. 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, the oven 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 When to Use EasyClean® Suggested Cleaning Method Example of Oven Soiling EasyClean® Self Clean* Soil Pattern Types of Common Food Items Soils That Can Soil Your Oven Small drops or spots Cheese or other ingredients Pizza Steaks, broiled Light splatter Fat/grease Fish, broiled Meat roasted at low temperatures Medium to heavy splatter Fat/grease Meat roasted at high temperatures Filling or sugar based soils Drops or spots Cream or tomato sauce Pies Casseroles * The Self Clean cycle can be used for soil that has been built up over time.
