Cleaning Tips •• Allow the oven to cool to room temperature before using the EasyClean® cycle. If your oven cavity is above 150 °F (65 °C), OVEN IS HOT will appear in the display, and the EasyClean® cycle will not be activated until the oven cavity cools down. •• A plastic spatula can be used as a scraper to scrape off any chunks or debris before and during oven cleaning. •• Using the rough side of a non-scratch scouring pad may help to take off burnt-on stains better than a soft sponge or towel. •• Certain non-scratch scrubbing sponges, such as those made of melamine foam, available at your local stores, can also help improve cleaning. •• The Oven must be level to ensure that the lower surface of the oven cavity is completely covered with water at the beginning of the EasyClean® cycle. •• For best results, use distilled or filtered water. Tap water may leave mineral deposits on the oven bottom. •• Soil baked on through several cooking cycles will be more difficult to remove with the EasyClean® cycle. •• Do not open the oven door during the EasyClean® cycle. Water will not get hot enough if the door is opened during the cycle. •• For hard to reach areas such as the back surface of the oven, it is better to use the Self Clean cycle. MAINTENANCE 51 EasyClean® Instruction Guide 1 Remove oven racks and accessories from the oven. 2 Scrape off and remove any burnt-on debris with a plastic scraper. Suggested plastic scrapers: •• Hard plastic spatula •• Plastic pan scraper •• Plastic paint scraper •• Old credit card 3 Fill the water tank with water to the maximum fill line (34 oz/1000 cc). 4 Close the oven door. Touch EasyClean®. Touch Start. 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. After the cycle ends, open the oven door and wait a minute to let the steam run out 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. 5 A tone will sound at the end of the 10 minute cycle. Touch Clear/Off to clear the display and end the tone. 6 After the cleaning cycle and during handcleaning, 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. 7 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. ENGLISH
