My range is still dirty after running the
EasyClean
TM
cycle. What else should I dot
The EasyClean
TM
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
TM
cycle.
I tried scrubbing my oven after running
EasyClean
TM,
but some soils still remain.
Whafcan I do?
The EasyClean
TM
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
TM
process
using sufficient water. Sugar-based and certain grease
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 ofyour oven range may be
more difficult to fully soak with water. Try repeating the
EasyClean
TM
process with more than the 1/4 cup (2 oz or
50 ml) spray recommended.
Will EasyClean
TM
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.
Is it safe for my convection fan, broil
burner or heater element to get wet during
EasyCleanTM?
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 all %1/4 cups (10 oz or
300 ml) of water for EasyCleanTM?
Yes. It is highly recommended that 1 cup (8 oz or 250
ml) of water be sprayed or poured on the bottom
and an additional 1/4cup (2 oz or 50 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
TM.
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 EasyCleanTM?
EasyClean
TM
can be performed as often as you wish.
EasyClean
TM
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
TM
section in your owner's manual for more information.
What is required for EasyCleanTM?
A spray bottle filled with 11/4 cups (10 oz or 300 ml) of
water, a plastic scraper, a nonscratch 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.
