How to set the oven for steam-cleaning

Steam-cleaning saves time and energy for light cleaning. For heavier-duty cleaning of debris and grease, use the self-cleaning function.

1. Remove all accessories from the oven.

2. Pour approximately 10 oz. (300 ml) of water onto the bottom of the empty oven and close the oven door.

Use normal water only, no distilled water.

. Press the STEAM CLEAN pad.

. Press the SET/START pad.

When the operation is complete, the display will blink and a beep will sound.

5. Press the CLEAR/OFF pad. . Clean the oven’s interior.

There will be a signifi cant amount of water remaining on the bottom of the oven after a steam-cleaning cycle. Remove the residual water with a sponge or soft dry cloth.

When steam-cleaning, use exactly 10 oz. of water since this produces the best results.

If you press the STEAM CLEAN pad when the oven temperature is above 100˚F, Hot will appear in the display. Because these functions produce the best results when started while the oven is cool, we recommend that you wait until the oven has cooled down and Hot disappears from the display.

After a steam-cleaning cycle

Take care when opening the door before a steam-cleaning procedure has ended; the water on the bottom is hot.

Open the oven door and remove the remaining water with a sponge. Do not leave the residual water in the oven for any length of time. Wipe the oven clean and dry with a soft cloth (do not forget to wipe under the oven door seal).

Use a detergent-soaked sponge, a soft brush, or a nylon scrubber to wipe the oven interior. Remove stubborn residue with a nylon scourer. You can remove lime deposits with a cloth soaked in vinegar.

If the oven remains dirty, you can repeat the procedure once the oven has cooled.

For heavy residue, such as grease left over from roasting, we recommend that you rub detergent into the residue before activating the steam-cleaning function.

After cleaning, leave the oven door ajar at a 15° angle to allow the interior enamel surface to dry thoroughly.
