ENGLISH 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. TROUBLESHOOTING 55 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. 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. 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) 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. 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. Fully saturating soils with water is also recommended. However, certain types of soils are harder to clean than others. For these stubborn soils, the Self Clean cycle is recommended. Consult the Self Clean section of your owner's manual for details. Do I need to use all 1 1/4 cups (10 oz or 300 ml) of water for EasyClean®? Yes. It is highly recommended that 1 cup (8 oz or 240 ml) of water be sprayed or poured on the bottom and an additional 1/4 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. 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. Can I run the EasyClean® cycle on both of my ovens at once? Yes. You can run the EasyClean® cycle on both ovens at the same time. Some oven surfaces will be hot after the cycle completes running. Avoid leaning or resting on the oven door glass while cleaning the oven cavities. You cannot run the Self Clean cycle on both ovens at the same time. Is it safe for water to spill into the oven bottom vents during cleaning? Some water spillage into the oven bottom vents (gas range) is okay. However, it is recommended to try avoid spilling too much water into the vents.
