Be sure the oven is level and cool before starting
Steam Clean. If the oven temperature is above
room temperature a triple beep will be heard and
the function will not start. Steam Clean produces
best results when started with a cool oven.
To set a Steam Clean cycle:
1. Remove all racks and oven accessories.
2. Scrape or wipe loose debris and grease from
the oven bottom.
3. Pour 1 cup of tap water onto the oven bottom.
Close oven door.
Notes:
•
Opening the oven door during the steam clean
cycle prevents the water from reaching the
temperature needed to clean.
•
For best results, clean oven immediately after
the cycle is complete. Steam clean works best
for soils on the oven bottom.
•
A non-abrasive scouring pad, stainless steel
sponge, plastic scraper, or eraser style cleaning
pad (without cleaner) can be used for diffi
cult
soils. Moisten pads with water before use.
•
Place a paper towel or cloth in front of the
oven to capture any water that may spill while
wiping out.
•
Do not leave the residual water in the oven for
any length of time.
•
Some condensation or water vapor may appear
close to the oven vent and the oven door glass.
This is normal. The oven gasket may become
damp; do not wipe dry.
•
Local water sources often contain minerals
(hard water). If hard water deposits occur, wipe
cavity with a 50/50 solution of water and vine-
gar or 50/50 solution of lemon juice and water.
•
Steam clean cannot be programmed with a
delayed start time.
•
If Steam Clean results are not satisfactory, run a
Self Clean. See “Self Clean” on page 40.

ter used for Steam Clean.
Before cleaning any part of the oven, be sure all
controls are turned off and the oven is cool. The
oven may be hot and can cause burns.
