EasyClean
®
LG's new oven with EasyClean
provides two cleaning options for the oven interior. 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 hand-cleaning.
®
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.

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- - PLEASE WAIT"
will appear in the display, and the EasyClean
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.

When needed, your oven still provides the Self Clean

• The oven should be level to ensure that the bottom
surface of the oven cavity is entirely covered by water
at the beginning of the EasyClean
• 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
• 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 lower oven, it is better to use the Self Clean cycle.
