LG's EasyClean
TM
enamel in your new oven provides flexibility while cleaning the inside of your range. The EasyClean
TM
feature works with LG's new enamel to help lift LIGHT soils such as drops of cheese from pizzas or LIGHT grease splatter
from small roasts without harsh chemicals for safer and faster hand-cleaning.
While traditional enamel surfaces require harsh chemicals to clean, EasyClean
TM
uses ONLY WATER and runs for just 20
minutes in low temperatures to help loosen LIGHT soils before hand-cleaning. Compared to the more intense Self Clean
process, your LG oven will help you clean with LESS HEAT, LESSTIME, and virtually NO SMOKE OR FUMES.
When needed, your range still provides the Self Clean option for longer, more thorough oven cleaning for heavier,
built up soils.

LG's new oven with EasyClean
TM
enamel technology gives
the user two cleaning options for different types of soils.
While EasyClean
TM
is quick and effective for small and
light soils, the Self Clean feature can be used to remove
heavy built-up soils. Due to the intensity of the Self Clean
cycle, there may be smoke and will require opening up
windows as a result of high heat.

Cleaning Tips
. Allow the oven to cool to room temperature before using the EasyClean
TM
cycle. If your oven cavity is above 150°F
(65°C),"OVEN IS HOT- - PLEASE WAIT'will appear in the display, and the EasyClean
TM
cycle will not be activated until
the oven cavity cools down.
. A plastic spatula can be used as a scraper to scrape offany chunks or debris before and during cleaning the oven.
. Using the rough side of a non-scratch scouring pad may help to take offthe 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 range should be level to ensure that the entire surface of the bottom of the oven cavity is covered by water at the
beginning of the EasyClean
TM
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
TM
cycle.
. Do not open the oven door during the EasyClean
TM
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 lower oven, it is better to use the SelfClean cycle.
