Remove racks and accessories
from the oven cavity. Do not place
cookware or other items in the oven
during the Steam Clean cycle.
Pour 1 cup (8 oz.) room-temperature
water onto the recessed area of the
oven bottom. Do not add cleaning
solutions or chemicals of any kind
to the water.
Close the door.
Press the
Steam Clean
pad; then press
Start/On
.
A 30-minute cycle will begin to count
down on the display.
When the Steam Clean cycle is
complete, the oven control will beep
and the
Steam Clean
light will blink.
Press the
Clear/Off
pad.
The oven bottom and remaining water
will still be very warm at the end of the
cycle. This is normal.
Remove soils using a scrub brush or
nylon scouring pad. A soap-filled steel
wool pad may be used only on the
porcelain oven interior.
The use of
abrasive pads will scratch the door
glass.
Do not wipe soil or water onto
the door gasket.
Remove any remaining water with
a dry cloth or sponge.
Leave the door open to air dry.
IMPORTANT NOTES:
• If a steam clean cycle is initiated
without water, press the
Clear/Off
pad
to end the cycle. Wait for the range
to cool to room temperature before
pouring water into the recessed area
and initiating another steam cycle.
• Do not open the door during the Steam
Clean cycle. An error beep will sound
upon opening the door.
• Press
Clear/Off
pad at any time to end
the cycle.
• If mineral deposits remain in the oven
bottom after cleaning, use a cloth or
sponge soaked in vinegar to remove
them.
• Some water may drip from the bottom
of the oven door. If this happens, wipe
it up at the end of the cycle.
• The door gasket may be wet when
the Steam Clean cycle finishes. This
is normal. Do not clean the gasket.
• If soil still remains after cleaning the
oven, see the
Care and cleaning of the
range
section of the Owner’s Manual for
additional options.
To Begin Steam Clean Cycle:
During the steam clean
cycle, the oven bottom
becomes hot enough
to cause burns. Wait until the cycle is over
(30 minutes) before wiping the inside surfaces
of the oven. Failure to do so may result in burns.
The Steam Clean cycle makes it easier to clean light
soiling off the standard-clean porcelain oven interior.
The range should be at room temperature before
beginning the Steam Clean cycle.
If the oven is too hot,
“hot” will appear on the display and the cycle will not
activate until the oven cools down.
The Steam Clean cycle performs best on new spills
or soils. Burned-on food is more difficult to remove.
CAUTION
Pour 8 ounces of water onto the oven
floor.
