WARNING
- To reduce the risk of explosion, fire, death, electric shock, injury or scalding to persons when using this product, follow basic precautions, including the following:
Installation
-
Do not line the oven walls, racks, bottom, or any other part of the oven with aluminum foil or any other material. Doing so will disrupt heat distribution, produce poor baking results and cause permanent damage to the oven interior. (Aluminum foil will melt to the interior surface of the oven.)
-
To eliminate the risk of burns or fire by reaching over heated surface units, cabinet storage space located above the surface units should be avoided. If cabinet storage is to be provided, the risk can be reduced by installing a range hood that projects horizontally a minimum of 5 inches beyond the bottom of the cabinets.
-
Do not use aluminum foil or any other material to line the oven bottom. Improper installation of these liners may result in a risk of electric shock or fire.
-
Make sure your range is properly installed and grounded by a qualified installer, according to the installation instructions. Any adjustment and service should be performed only by qualified range installers or service technicians.
-
Do not attempt to open or close the door or operate the oven until the door is properly installed.
-
Have the installer show you the location of the range gas shut-off valve and how to shut it off if necessary.
-
Make sure your range is properly adjusted by a qualified service technician or installer for the type of gas (natural or LP) that is to be used. Your range can be converted for use with either type of gas. See the installation instructions.
-
These adjustments must be done by a qualified service technician according to the manufacturer’s instructions and all codes and requirements of the authority having jurisdiction. Failure to follow these instructions could result in serious injury or property damage. The qualified agency performing these adjustments assumes responsibility for the conversion.
-
Disconnect the electrical supply before servicing the appliance.
-
This product should not be installed below ventilation type hood systems that direct air in a downward direction.
– Doing so may cause ignition and combustion problems with the gas burners resulting in personal injury and may affect the cooking performance of the unit. -
To prevent poor air circulation, place the range out of the kitchen traffic path and out of drafty locations.
Operation
WARNING
NEVER cover any slots, holes or passages in the oven bottom or cover an entire
rack with materials such as aluminum foil. Doing so blocks air flow through
the oven and may cause carbon monoxide poisoning. Aluminum foil linings may
also trap heat, causing a fire hazard.
WARNING
NEVER use this appliance as a space heater to heat or warm the room. Doing so
may result in carbon monoxide poisoning and overheating of the oven.
-
Gas appliances can cause minor exposure to four potentially harmful substances, namely benzene, carbon monoxide, formaldehyde and soot, caused primarily by the imperfect combustion of natural or LP gas. Correctly adjusted burners, indicated by a bluish rather than a yellow flame, will minimize imperfect combustion.
– Exposure to these substances can be minimized by opening windows or using a ventilation fan or hood. -
Let the burner grates and other surfaces cool before touching them.
-
Never block the vents (air holes) of the range. They provide the air inlet and outlet necessary for the range to operate properly with correct combustion.
– Air openings are located at the rear of the cooktop, at the top and bottom of the oven door, and at the bottom of the range. -
Never obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air by blocking the oven vent or air intakes. Doing so restricts air to the burner and may result in carbon monoxide poisoning.
-
Stepping, leaning or sitting on the doors or drawers of this range can result in serious injuries and also cause damage to the range. Do not allow children to climb or play around the range. The weight of a child on an open door may cause the range to tip, resulting in serious burns or other injury.
-
Never place fingers between the door hinge and front oven frame. Hinge arms are spring mounted. If accidentally hit, the hinge will slam shut against the oven frame and injure your fingers.
-
Do not leave children alone or unattended where a range is hot or in operation. They could be seriously burned.
-
Do not let anyone climb, stand or hang on the oven door, warming drawer or cooktop. They could damage the range or tip it over, causing severe personal injury.
-
Do not stand or place excessive weight on the open oven door. This could tip the range, break the door, or injure the user.
-
To prevent fire hazard or electrical shock, do not use an adapter plug or an extension cord, or remove the grounding prong from the electrical power cord. Doing so can result in death or serious burns to children or adults.
-
Make sure that all packaging materials are removed from the range before operating it to prevent fire or smoke damage should the packaging material ignite.
-
When opening the door of a hot oven, stand away from the range. The hot air and steam that escape can cause burns to hands, face and eyes.
-
Do not heat food in closed containers. Pressure inside the container could increase and cause the container to burst, resulting in injury.
-
Do not line oven walls or bottom with aluminum foil or allow them to contact exposed heating elements in the oven. Doing so could create a fire hazard or cause damage to the range.
-
During oven operation, the upper surface of the drawer cavity becomes hot and may cause burns. Never allow children to remain unsupervised near the oven or cooktop.
-
Do not put your hand inside the drawer during the oven operation.
-
Do not leave children alone or unsupervised near the appliance when it is in use or is still hot. Children should never be allowed to sit or stand on any part of the appliance as they could be injured or burned.
-
Children should not be allowed to play with controls or other parts of the appliance.
-
DO NOT TOUCH HEATING ELEMENTS OR INTERIOR SURFACES OF OVEN. Heating elements may be hot even though they are dark in color. Interior surfaces of an oven become hot enough to cause burns.
During and after use, do not touch or let clothing or other flammable materials contact heating elements or interior surfaces of the oven until they have had sufficient time to cool. Other surfaces, such as oven vent openings and surfaces near these openings, oven doors, and windows of oven doors, also get hot and may cause burns if not cooled. -
Use care when opening the oven door. The hot air and steam that escape can cause burns to hands, face and eyes. Let hot air or steam escape from the oven before removing or replacing food in the oven.
-
Do not use plastic to cover food. Use foil or oven-safe lids only.
-
Never attempt to dry a pet in the oven.
-
Never use your appliance for warming or heating the room.
-
Always use pot holders or oven mitts when removing food from the oven or the surface element.
Cookware will be hot. Use only dry pot holders. Moist or damp pot holders on hot surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do not let the pot holder touch hot heating elements. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth to remove food. -
Do not heat unopened food containers. Pressure in the containers may cause them to burst which may result in injury.
-
Be certain that all packing materials are removed from the appliance before operating. Keep plastic, clothes, paper, and other flammable materials away from parts of the appliance that may become hot.
-
Do not allow aluminum foil or the temperature probe to contact heating elements.
-
Do not touch the oven racks while they are hot.
-
If a rack must be moved while the oven is hot, do not let the pot holder contact the hot heating element in the oven.
-
Pull the oven rack to the stop-lock position when loading and unloading food from the oven. This helps prevent burns caused by touching hot surfaces of the door and oven walls.
-
Do not use the oven if a heating element develops a glowing spot during use or shows other signs of damage. A glowing spot indicates the heating element may fail and present a potential burn, fire, or shock hazard. Turn the oven off immediately and have the heating element replaced by a qualified service technician.
-
Never use the appliance door as a step stool or seat, as this may result in tipping of the appliance and serious injuries.

- To reduce the risk of burns, do not move this appliance while it is hot.
NOTE
-
Your range is heavy and can be installed on soft floor coverings such as cushioned vinyl or carpeting. Use care when moving the range on this type of flooring. Use a belt when moving the range to prevent damaging the floor. Or slide the range onto cardboard or plywood to avoid damaging the floor covering.
-
Remove packing material, tape and any temporary labels from your range before using. Do not remove any warning-type labels, the model and serial number label, or the Tech Sheet that is located on the back of the range.
-
To remove any remaining tape or glue, rub the area briskly with your thumb. Tape or glue residue can also be easily removed by rubbing a small amount of liquid dish soap over the adhesive with your fingers. Wipe with warm water and dry.
-
Do not use sharp instruments, rubbing alcohol, flammable fluids, or abrasive cleaners to remove tape or glue. These products can damage the surface of your range.
Choosing the Proper Location
Ventilation
-
Avoid placing cabinets above the range. To minimize the hazard caused by reaching over the open flames of operating burners, install a ventilation hood over the range that projects forward at least five inches beyond the front of the cabinets.
-
Do not locate your range where it may be subject to strong drafts. Any openings in the floor or wall behind the range should be sealed.
Make sure the openings around the base of the range that supply fresh air for combustion and ventilation are not blocked by carpeting or woodwork. -
This appliance must not be installed with a ventilation system that blows air downward toward the range. This type of ventilation system may cause ignition and combustion problems with the gas cooking appliance resulting in personal injury or unintended operation.
Electricity
CAUTION
- This range is for indoor, household use only. Do not install the range in areas exposed to the weather and/or water.
- The range should always be plugged into its own individual properly grounded electrical outlet.
– This prevents overloading house wiring circuits which could cause a fire hazard from overheated wires.
– It is recommended that a separate circuit serving only this appliance be provided.
Flooring
CAUTION
- Use an insulated pad or 1/4 in. (0.64 cm) plywood under the range if installing the range over carpeting.
- When the floor covering ends at the front of the range, the area that the range will be installed on should be built up with plywood to the same level or higher than the floor covering. This will allow the range to be moved for cleaning and servicing, as well as provide proper air flow to the range.
Ambient Temperature
CAUTION
-
Make sure wall coverings, countertops and cabinets around the range can withstand the heat (up to 194 °F) generated by the range.
Discoloration, delamination or melting may occur. This range has been designed to comply with the maximum allowable wood cabinet temperature of 194 °F. -
Before installing the range in an area covered with linoleum or other synthetic floor covering, make sure the floor covering can withstand temperatures of at least 160 °F (70 °C).

NOTE
- Important – Save for the use of the local electrical inspector.
- For installation in Canada, a free-standing range is not to be installed closer than 15/32″ (12 mm) from any adjacent surface.
Leveling
Leveling the Range
Level the range by adjusting the leveling legs with a wrench. Extending the
legs slightly may also make it easier to insert the rear leg into the anti-tip
bracket.
Checking Adjustments
-
Place the level diagonally on the oven rack, and check each direction for level.
• First check direction 1. Then check direction 2. -
If the level doesn’t show that the rack is level, adjust the leveling legs with a wrench.
Connecting Gas
Providing Adequate Gas Supply
- Your range is designed to operate at a pressure of 5″ of water column on natural gas or 10″ of water column on LP.
- Make sure you are supplying your range with the type of gas for which it is configured.
- This range is convertible for use with natural or LP gas. When using this range with LP gas, conversion must be made by a qualified LP installer before attempting to operate the range.
- For proper operation, the pressure of natural gas supplied to the regulator must be between 5″ and 13″ of water column.
- For LP gas, the pressure supplied to the regulator must be between 10″ and 13″ of water column. When checking for correct operation of the regulator, the inlet pressure must be at least 1″ more than the operating (manifold) pressure as given above.
- The pressure regulator located at the inlet of the range must remain in the supply line regardless of which type of gas is being used.
- A flexible metal appliance connector used to connect the range to the gas supply line should have an I.D. of 5/8″ and a maximum length of 5 feet. In Canada, flexible connectors must be single wall metal connectors less than 6 feet in length.
Connecting the Range to Gas
WARNING
- Isolate the range from the gas supply system by closing its individual shut-off valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply system at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psi (3.5 kPa).
- The appliance and its individual shut-off valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any pressure testing of that system at test pressures in excess of 1/2 psi (3.5 kPa).
- Shut off the range gas supply valve before removing the old range and leave it off until the new hook-up has been completed.
- Because hard piping restricts movement of the range, the use of a CSA International-certified flexible metal appliance connector should be used unless local codes require a hard-piped connection.
- A manual valve shall be installed in an accessible location in the gas piping external to the appliance for the purpose of turning on or shutting off gas to the appliance.
- Never reuse an old connector when installing a new range.
- To protect against gas leaks, use a qualified pipe joint sealant on all external threads.
-
Install a male 1/2″ or 3/4″ flare union adapter to the NPT internal thread of the manual shutoff valve, taking care to back-up the shut-off valve to keep it from turning.
-
Install a male 1/2″ flare union adapter to the 1/2″ NPT internal thread at the inlet of the pressure regulator. Use a backup wrench on the pressure regulator fitting to prevent damage.
-
Connect a flexible metal appliance connector to the adapter on the range. Position the range to permit connection at the shut-off valve.
-
When all connections have been made, be sure all range controls are in the OFF position before turning on the main gas supply valve.
• Gas leaks may occur in your system and create a hazard. Gas leaks may not be detected by smell alone. -
Check all gas connection joints and fittings for leaks with a non-corrosive leak detection fluid, then wipe off.
• Gas suppliers recommend you purchase and install a UL approved gas detector. Install and use in accordance with the installation instructions.
WARNING
– Do not use a flame to check for gas leaks.
NOTE
- Installation must conform with local codes or, in the absence of local codes, with the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54 or, in Canada, the Natural Gas and Propane Installation Code, CSA B149.1.

- Use the proper pan size. Do not use pans that are unstable or that can be easily tipped. Select cookware with flat bottoms large enough to cover burner grates. To avoid spillovers, make sure the cookware is large enough to contain the food properly. This will both save cleaning time and prevent hazardous accumulations of food, since heavy spattering or spillovers left on the range can ignite. Use pans with handles that can be easily grasped and remain cool.
CAUTION
-
To avoid discoloration during use, follow the tips in the Maintenance section.
-
Do not operate the burner for an extended period of time without cookware on the grate.
-
The finish on the grate may chip without cookware to absorb the heat.
-
Touching grates before they cool down may cause burns.
-
What to do if you smell gas
– Open windows.
– Do not try to light any appliance.
– Do not touch any electrical switch.
– Do not use any phone in your building.
– Immediately call your gas supplier from a neighbor’s phone. Follow the gas supplier’s instructions.
– If you cannot reach your gas supplier, call the fire department. -
Be sure that all surface controls are set in the OFF position prior to supplying gas to the range.
-
Never leave the surface burners unattended at high flame settings. Boilovers may cause smoke and greasy spillovers that may ignite.
-
Always turn the knobs to the Lite position when igniting the top burners and make sure the burners have ignited.
-
Control the top burner flame size so it does not extend beyond the edge of the cookware.
Excessive flame is hazardous. -
Only use dry pot holders. Moist or damp pot holders on hot surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do not let pot holders come near open flames when lifting cookware. Do not use towels or other bulky cloth items. Use a pot holder.
-
If using glass cookware, make sure the cookware is designed for range-top cooking.
-
To prevent burns from ignition of flammable materials and spillage, turn cookware handles toward the side or back of the range without extending them over adjacent burners.
-
Never leave any items on the cooktop. The hot air from the vent may ignite flammable items and will increase pressure in closed containers, which may cause them to burst.
-
Carefully watch foods being fried at a high flame setting.
-
Always heat fat slowly, and watch as it heats.
-
If frying combinations of oils and fats, stir together before heating.
-
Use a deep fat thermometer if possible to prevent fat from heating beyond the smoking point.
-
Use the least possible amount of fat for effective shallow or deep fat frying. Filling the pan with too much fat can cause spillovers when food is added.
-
Do not cook foods directly on an open flame on the cooktop.
-
Do not use a wok on the surface burners if the wok has a round metal ring that is placed over the burner grate to support the wok. This ring acts as a heat trap, which may damage the burner grate and burner head. It may also cause the burner to work improperly. This may cause carbon monoxide levels which are higher than what is allowed by current standards, resulting in a health hazard.
-
Foods for frying should be as dry as possible.
Frost or moisture on foods can cause hot fat to bubble up and spill over the sides of the pan. -
Never try to move a pan of hot fat, especially a deep fryer. Wait until the fat is cool.
-
Do not place plastic items on the cooktop. They may melt if left too close to the vent.
-
Keep all plastics away from the surface burners.
-
To prevent burns, always be sure that the controls for all burners are in the OFF position and all grates are cool before attempting to remove them.
-
If you smell gas, turn off the gas to the range and call a qualified service technician. Never use an open flame to locate a leak.
-
Always turn the knobs to the OFF position before removing cookware.
-
Do not lift the cooktop. Lifting the cooktop can cause damage and improper operation of the range.
-
If the range is located near a window, do not hang long curtains that could blow over the surface burners and catch on fire.
-
Use care when cleaning the cooktop. The pointed metal ends on the electrodes could cause injury.
-
Make sure that all burners are properly placed.
-
Make sure that all grates are properly placed before using the burners.
-
Make sure that the burners and grates are cool before touching them or placing a pot holder, cleaning cloth, or other materials on them.
NOTE
- Electric spark igniters from the burners cause a clicking noise. All the spark igniters on the cooktop will activate when igniting just one burner.
Burner Locations
Your gas range cooktop has four or five sealed gas burners, depending on the
model. These can be assembled and separated. Follow the guide below.
-
Medium and large burners
The medium and large burners are the primary burners for most cooking. These general purpose burners can be turned down from Hi to Lo to suit a wide range of cooking needs. -
Small burner
The smallest burner is used for delicate foods such as sauces or foods that require low heat for a long cooking time. -
Dual burner (Extra large burner)
The dual burner is the maximum output burner. Like the other four burners, it can be turned down from Hi to Lo for a wide range of cooking applications. This burner is also designed to quickly bring large amounts of liquid to a boil. It can be used with cookware 10 inches or larger in diameter. -
Oval burner
The center, oval burner is for use with a griddle or oval pots.
Using the Gas Surface Burners
CAUTION
- Match the size of the cooktop burner or element to the size of the cookware in use. Using a large element for a small pan wastes heating energy, and the exposed surface of the element is a burn or fire hazard.
-
Be sure that all of the surface burners and grates are placed in the correct positions.
-
Place cookware on the grate.
-
Push the control knob and turn to the LITE position to light the burner. NOTE
• The electric spark ignition system makes a clicking noise. -
Turn the control knob to control the flame size.
CAUTION
- Do not attempt to disassemble or clean around any burner while another burner is on. All the burners spark when any burner is turned to LITE. An electric shock may result causing you toknock over hot cookware.
Setting the Flame Size
Watch the flame, not the knob, as you reduce heat.
Match the flame size on a gas burner to the cookware being used for fastest
heating.
CAUTION
- Never let the flames extend up the sides of the cookware.
NOTE
- The flames on the surface burners may burn yellow in the presence of high humidity, such as a rainy day or a nearby humidifier.
- After LP gas conversion, flames can be bigger than normal when you put a pot on the surface burner.
Using the Proper Cookware
-
Aluminum
– Medium-weight cookware is recommended because it heats quickly and evenly. Most foods brown evenly in an aluminum skillet.
Use saucepans with tight fitting lids when cooking with minimum amounts of water. -
Cast-Iron
– If heated slowly, most skillets will give satisfactory results. -
Stainless Steel
– This metal alone has poor heating properties and is usually combined with copper, aluminum or other metals for improved heat distribution. Combination metal skillets work satisfactorily if they are used with medium heat as the manufacturer recommends. -
Enamelware
– Under some conditions, the enamel of this cookware may melt. Follow cookware manufacturer’s recommendations for cooking methods. -
Glass
– There are two types of glass cookware, those for oven use only and those for top-of-range cooking. -
Heatproof Glass Ceramic
– Can be used for either surface or oven cooking. It conducts heat very slowly and cools very slowly. Check cookware manufacturer’s directions to be sure it can be used on gas ranges.
NOTE
- Match the size of the cookware to the amount of food being cooked to save energy when heating.
Heating 1/2 quart of water requires more energy in a 3-quart pot than in a 1-quart pot.
Using a Wok
If using a wok, use a 14-inch or smaller flatbottomed wok.
Make sure that the wok bottom sits flat on the grate.
CAUTION
- Do not use a wok support ring. Placing the ring over the burner or grate may cause the burner to work improperly, resulting in carbon monoxide levels above allowable standards. This can be hazardous to your health.
Using the Wok Grate
Use the included wok grate to support a 12″ to 14″ round-bottomed wok.
CAUTION
-
Turn off all burners and allow the wok grate, burner grates, and cooktop to cool before installing or removing the wok grate.
-
The wok grate retains heat for a long time.
Always use an oven mitt when installing or removing the wok grate. Do not store the wok grate on the burner grate. -
Do not use flat-bottomed cookware or incorrectly sized woks with the wok grate. The cookware or wok could tip and cause personal injury.
-
Do not use a wok larger than 14″ with the wok grate. Doing so could cause burner flames to spread excessively and damage the cooktop.
- Turn off all burners and allow the grates and cooktop to cool before installing or removing the wok grate.
- Remove the griddle, if necessary. Do not remove the standard burner grates.
- Place the wok grate on top of the left or right front burner grate, aligning the notches on the wok grate with the burner grate’s fingers.
• Make sure the side marked FRONT is toward the front.
NOTE
- Make sure the wok grate is stable and the wok rests firmly on the wok grate.
- Do not use a wok that is the wrong size to fit securely in the wok grate.
- The wok grate and griddle cannot be used at the same time.
- For best performance, place the wok grate over the extra large, right front burner.
- Do not use the wok grate with cookware other than a wok.
- Clean the wok grate with hot, soapy water. Do not use oven cleaners, steel wool, or abrasive cleansers. Do not clean with the self-clean mode.
Using Stove-Top Grills
Do not place stove-top grills on the burner.
CAUTION
- Do not use stove top grills on the surface burners. Using a stove top grill on the surface burner will cause incomplete combustion and can result in exposure to carbon monoxide levels above allowable current standards. This can be a health hazard. Using the Griddle
The non-stick coated griddle provides an extralarge cooking surface for meats, pancakes or other food usually prepared in a frying pan or skillet.
CAUTION
- Avoid cooking extremely greasy foods as grease spillover can occur.
- The griddle can become hot when surrounding burners are in use.
- Do not overheat the griddle. This can damage the non stick coating.
- Do not use metal utensils that can damage the griddle surface. Do not use the griddle as a cutting board.
- Do not place or store items on the griddle.
NOTE
- It is normal for the griddle to become discolored over time.
How to Place the Griddle
The griddle can only be used with the center burner. The griddle must be
properly placed on the center grate, as shown below.
CAUTION
- Do not remove the center grate when using the griddle.
- Do not remove the griddle plate until the cooktop grates, surfaces and griddle plate have completely cooled.
- The griddle plate on the cooktop may become very hot when using the cooktop, oven or broiler systems. Always use oven mitts when placing or removing the griddle plate.

range with a match.
Surface burners in use when an electrical power failure occurs will continue
to operate normally.
CAUTION
- Use extreme caution when lighting burners with a match. It can cause burns and other damage.
- Hold a lit match to the burner, then push in the control knob.
- Turn the control knob to the Lo position.
Oven
Before Using the Oven
NOTE
- Because the oven temperature cycles, an oven thermometer placed in the oven cavity may not show the same temperature that is set on the oven.
- It is normal for the convection fan to run while preheating during a regular bake cycle.
- The convection fan motor may run periodically during a regular bake cycle.
- The heat turns off if the door is left open during baking. If the door is left open for longer than 30 seconds during baking, the heat turns off. The heat turns back on automatically once the door is closed.
- Avoid opening the oven door more than necessary during use. This helps the oven maintain temperature, prevents unnecessary heat loss, and saves on energy use.
- Do not operate the oven without the charcoal heater mesh.
Oven Vent
Areas near the vent may become hot during operation and may cause burns. Do
not block the vent opening. Avoid placing plastics near the vent as heat may
distort or melt the plastic.
It is normal for steam to be visible when cooking foods with high moisture
content.
CAUTION
- The edges of the range vent are sharp. Wear gloves when cleaning the range to avoid injury.
Using Oven Racks
The racks have a turned-up back edge that prevents them from being pulled out
of the oven cavity.
CAUTION
- Replace oven racks before turning the oven on to prevent burns.
- Do not cover the racks with aluminum foil, or any other material, or place anything on the bottom of the oven. Doing so will result in poor baking and may damage the oven bottom.
- Only arrange oven racks when the oven is cool.
Removing Racks
- Pull the rack straight out until it stops.
- Lift up the front of the rack and pull it out.
Replacing Racks
- Place the end of the rack on the support.
- Tilt the front end up and push the rack in.
Instaview
Knock twice on the center of the glass panel to reveal the contents of the
oven without opening the door.
CAUTION
- Do not hit the glass door panel with excessive force. Do not allow hard objects like cookware or glass bottles to hit the glass door panel. The glass could break, resulting in a risk of personal injury.
NOTE
- Knocking twice on the glass panel turns the interior light on or off.
- The light turns off automatically after 90 seconds.
- The InstaView function is disabled when the oven door is opened and for one second after closing the door.
- The InstaView function is disabled during Self Clean, Control Lock / Lockout, and initial power input (on some models only).
- Tapping the edges of the glass panel may not activate the InstaView function.
- The taps on the glass panel must be hard enough to be audible.
- Loud noises near the oven may activate the InstaView function.
Bake
Bake is used to prepare foods such as pastries, breads and casseroles.
The oven can be programmed to bake at any temperature from 170 ℉ (80 ℃) to 550
℉ (285 ℃).
The default temperature is 350 ℉ (175 ℃).
Setting the Bake Function (For example, to bake at 375 ℉)
-
Turn the oven mode knob to select Bake.
-
Set the oven temperature: Press 3, 7 and 5.
-
Press START. The oven starts to preheat.
NOTE
• As the oven preheats, the temperature is displayed and rises in 5-degree increments.
Once the oven reaches the set temperature, a tone sounds and the oven light blinks on and off. -
When cooking is complete, turn the oven mode knob to the OFF position.
-
Remove the food from the oven.
NOTE
• It is normal for the convection fan to operate periodically throughout a normal bake cycle in the oven. This is to ensure even baking results.
Baking Tips
- Baking time and temperature will vary depending on the characteristics, size, and shape of the baking pan used.
- Check for food doneness at the minimum recipe time.
- Use metal bakeware (with or without a nonstick finish), heatproof glass-ceramic, ceramic or other bakeware recommended for oven use.
- Dark metal pans or nonstick coatings will cook food faster with more browning. Insulated bakeware will slightly lengthen the cooking time for most foods.
- The oven bottom has a porcelain-enamel finish.
To make cleaning easier, protect the oven bottom from excessive spillovers by placing a cookie sheet on the rack below the rack you are cooking on. This is particularly important when baking a fruit pie or other foods with a high acid content. Hot fruit fillings or other foods that are highly acidic may cause pitting and damage to the porcelain-enamel surface and should be wiped up immediately.
Convection Mode
The convection system uses a fan to circulate the heat evenly within the oven.
Improved heat distribution allows for even cooking and excellent results while
cooking with single or multiple racks.
Setting the Convection Function (For example, cooking at 375 °F)
-
Turn the oven mode knob to select Conv.
Bake or Conv. Roast. The display flashes 350 °F. -
Set the oven temperature: Press 3, 7 and 5.
-
Press START. The display shows Conv. Bake or Conv. Roast and the oven temperature starting at 100 °F.
• As the oven preheats, the display shows increasing temperatures in 5-degree increments. Once the oven reaches the set adjusted temperature, a tone sounds and the oven light flashes on and off. The display shows the auto-converted oven temperature, 350 °F and the fan icon. -
When cooking has finished or to cancel, turn the oven mode knob to the OFF position.
NOTE
- The oven fan runs while convection baking. The fan stops when the door is open. In some cases, the fan may shut off during a convection bake cycle.
Tips for Convection Baking
- Use Convection Bake for faster and more even multiple-rack cooking of pastries, cookies, muffins, biscuits, and breads of all kinds.
- Bake cookies and biscuits on pans with no sides or very low sides to allow heated air to circulate around the food. Food baked on pans with a dark finish will cook faster.
- When using Convection Bake, place the oven racks in positions suggested in the charts in this manual.
- Multiple oven rack cooking may slightly increase cook times for some foods.
- Cakes, cookies and muffins have better results when using multiple racks.
The Convection Roast feature is designed to give optimum roasting performance.
Convection Roast combines cooking with the convection fan to roast meats and
poultry. The heated air circulates around the food from all sides, sealing in
juices and flavors. Foods are crispy brown on the outside while staying moist
on the inside. Convection
roasting is especially good for large tender cuts of meat, uncovered.
Tips for Convection Roasting
Use a broiler pan and grid when preparing meats for convection roasting. The
broiler pan catches grease spills and the grid helps prevent grease splatters.
- Place the oven rack in the recommended position.
- Place the grid in the broiler pan.
- Place the broiler pan on the oven rack.
Grid (sold separately)
Broiler pan (sold separately)
CAUTION
- Do not use a broiler pan without a grid.
- Do not cover the grid with aluminum foil.
- Position food (fat side up) on the grid.
Recommended Baking and Roasting Guide
Baking results will be better if baking pans are centered in the oven as much
as possible. If cooking on multiple racks, place the oven racks in the
positions shown.
Multiple-rack cooking saves time and energy.
Whenever possible, cook foods requiring the same cooking temperature together
in one oven.

Broil
The Broil function uses intense heat from the upper heating element to cook
food. Broiling works best for tender cuts of meat, fish, and thinly cut
vegetables.
Some models may feature a hybrid broiler consisting of an inner broiler that
utilizes a carbon heating element which provides instantaneous heat, and a
traditional outer broiling element.
During normal broiler operation, it is normal for either element to cycle off
intermittently.
CAUTION
- Do not use a broiler pan without a grid. Oil can cause a grease fire.
- Do not cover the grid and broiler pan with aluminum foil. Doing so will cause a fire.
- Always use a broiler pan and grid for excess fat and grease drainage. This will help to reduce splatter, smoke, and flare-ups.
- When using your broiler, the temperature inside the oven will be extremely high. Take care to avoid possible burns by:
– Keeping the door closed when broiling
– Always wearing oven mitts when inserting or removing food items
NOTE
- This range is designed for closed-door broiling.
Close the door to set the Broil function. If the door is open, the Broil function cannot be set and “door” appears on the display. Close the door and reset the Broil function. Opening the door turns off the broil burner during broiling. If the door is opened during broiling, the broil burner turns off after five seconds. The broiler turns back on automatically once the door is closed.
Setting the Oven to Broil
-
Turn the oven mode knob to select Broil.
• Press 1 to set Hi or press 2 to set Lo. -
Press START. The oven begins to heat.
-
Let the oven preheat for approximately five minutes before cooking the food if using Broil.
-
Turn the oven mode knob to the OFF position to cancel at any time or when cooking is complete.
Tips for Reducing Smoke
Due to the intense heat associated with broiling, it is normal to experience
smoke during the cooking process. This smoke is a natural byproduct of searing
and should not cause you to worry. If you are experiencing more smoke than you
are comfortable with, use the following tips to reduce the amount of smoke in
your oven.
-
Always use a broiler pan. Do not use saute pans or regular baking sheets for safety reasons.
-
The broiler pan should always be thoroughly cleaned and at room temperature at the beginning of cooking.
-
Always run your cooktop ventilation system or vent hood during broiling.
-
Keep the interior of your oven as clean as possible. Leftover debris from prior meals can burn or catch fire.
-
Avoid fatty marinades and sugary glazes. Both of these will increase the amount of smoke you experience. If you would like to use a glaze, apply it at the very end of cooking.
-
If you are experiencing significant smoke with any food item, consider:
– Lowering the broiler to the Lo setting.
– Lowering the rack position to cook the food farther away from the broiler.
– Using the Hi broil setting to achieve the level of searing you desire, and then either switching to the Lo broil setting, or switching to the Bake function. -
As a rule, fattier cuts of meat and fish will produce more smoke than leaner items.
-
Adhere to the guidelines in the Recommended Broiling Guide section whenever possible.
Recommended Broiling Guide
The size, weight, thickness, starting temperature, and your preference of
doneness will affect broiling times.
This guide is based on meats at refrigerator temperature. For best results
when broiling, use a pan designed for broiling.

NOTE
- The USDA advises that consuming raw or undercooked fish, meat, or poultry can increase your risk of food-borne illness.
- The USDA has indicated the following as safe minimum internal temperatures for consumption:
– Ground beef: 160 °F (71.1 °C)
– Poultry: 165 °F (73.9 °C)
– Beef, veal, pork, or lamb: 145 °F (62.8 °C)
– Fish / Seafood: 145 °F (62.8 °C)
Tips for Broiling
-
Beef
– Steaks and chops should always be allowed to rest for five minutes before being cut into and eaten.
This allows the heat to distribute evenly through the food and creates a more tender and juicy result.
– Pieces of meat that are thicker than two inches should be removed from the refrigerator 30 minutes prior to cooking. This will help them cook more quickly and evenly, and will produce less smoke when broiling. Cooking times will likely be shorter than the times indicated in the Broiling Chart.
– For bone-in steaks or chops that have been frenched (all meat removed from around the bone), wrap the exposed sections of bone in foil to reduce burning. -
Seafood
– When broiling skin-on fish, always use the Lo broil setting and always broil the skin side last.
– Seafood is best consumed immediately after cooking. Allowing seafood to rest after cooking can cause the food to dry out.
– It is a good idea to rub a thin coating of oil on the surface of the broiling pan before cooking to reduce sticking, especially with fish and seafood. You can also use a light coating of non-stick pan spray. -
Vegetables
– Toss your vegetables lightly in oil before cooking to improve browning.

- Wet batters and coatings will not crisp or set when using the Air Fry mode.
Tips for Air Fry
- For best results, use the provided air fry tray.
– The mesh section of the air fry tray can be cleaned in a dishwasher.
- Air Fry Tray
- Heavy Duty Rack
- If you don’t have the air fry tray, place food on a wire rack inside a foil-lined broiler pan.
-
For best results, cook food on a single rack placed in positions suggested in the chart in this manual.
-
Spread the food out evenly in a single layer.
-
Use either the optional air fry tray available from LG or a dark baking tray with no sides or short sides that does not cover the entire rack. This allows for better air circulation.
-
If desired, spray the baking tray or air fry tray with a pan spray. Use an oil that can be heated to a high temperature before smoking, such as avocado, grapeseed, peanut or sunflower oil.
-
Place a foil-lined baking tray on a rack in position 1 to catch the oil falling from the food. For highfat foods like chicken wings, add a few sheets of parchment paper to absorb the fat.
-
Check food often and shake it or turn it over for crisper results.
-
Prepared frozen foods may cook faster with the Air Fry mode than stated on the package.
Reduce the cooking time by about 20 percent, check food early, and adjust cooking time as needed. -
Use a food thermometer to make sure food has reached a safe temperature for consumption.
Eating undercooked meats can increase your risk of food-borne illness. -
For the crispiest results, dredge fresh chicken wings or tenders in seasoned flour. Use 1/3 cup flour for 2 pounds of chicken.
Recommendations When Air Frying High-Fat Foods
Foods high in fat will smoke when using the Air Fry mode. For best results,
follow these recommendations when air frying foods that are high in fat, such
as chicken wings, bacon, sausage, hot dogs, turkey legs, lamb chops, ribs,
pork loin, duck breasts, or some plant-based proteins.
CAUTION
- Never cover slots, holes, or passages in the oven bottom or cover entire racks with materials such as aluminum foil. Doing so blocks airflow through the oven and can result in carbon monoxide poisoning. Aluminum foil can also trap heat, causing a fire hazard or poor oven performance.
- Clean the grease filters on your exhaust hood regularly.
- Turn on your exhaust hood at a high fan setting before you start Air Fry and leave it on for 15 minutes after you’re done.
- Open a window or sliding glass door, if possible, to make sure the kitchen is well-ventilated.
- Keep the oven free from grease buildup. Wipe down the interior of the oven before and after air frying (once the oven has cooled).
- Run oven cleaning cycles (Easy Clean or SelfClean) regularly, depending on how often and what types of food you Air Fry.
- Avoid opening the oven door more than necessary to help maintain the oven temperature, prevent heat loss, and save energy.
- Air-frying fresh chicken pieces such as wings or drumsticks with the skin left on can produce smoke as the fat renders at high temperatures.
If the smoke is excessive, use the Convection Roast mode instead of Air Fry.
Recommended Air Frying Guide
- Arrange food evenly in a single layer.
- Put a foil-lined baking pan on a rack in position 1 to catch drips. If needed, add parchment paper to absorb oil and reduce smoking.
- Flip food over during cooking to avoid burning it.
† High-fat items may produce more smoke when cooked using Air Fry. For less smoke, cook using Convection Roast mode.

Air Sous-Vide
Air Sous-Vide cooking uses air to cook foods “low and slow.” Use it to cook
meat, fish, seafood, poultry or vegetables. Food must be vacuum packed in
pouches before cooking.
- It is not necessary to preheat the oven when using Air Sous-Vide.
- Refer to the cooking guide for recommended Air Sous-Vide settings.
Benefits of Air Sous-Vide
The lower temperatures and long cooking times used in Air Sous-Vide cooking
provide many benefits.
-
Healthier
– Compared to other cooking methods, Air Sous- Vide retains most of the original nutrients in food. -
Safe and Convenient
– The long cooking times used in Air Sous-Vide cooking allow food to be pasteurized. Because food is vacuum packed before cooking, the unopened pouches can be quickly chilled in an ice bath and stored in the freezer or refrigerator after cooking. -
Crisp and Moist Results
– The fine temperature control of Air Sous-Vide cooking is an excellent way to achieve the perfect texture when cooking meat and poultry. The low temperatures used retain more of the moisture in food than conventional cooking methods. After cooking, a final sear in a frying pan adds the perfect crisp finish.
Setting Air Sous-Vide Mode
- Place the heavy duty rack in position 3 and place the sealed food bag on it.
- Turn the oven mode knob to select Air SousVide mode.
- Set the desired oven temperature. (Range: 100 °F ~ 205 °F)
- Press START.
- Once cooking is finished, allow the oven to cool completely.

– As with any cooktop, some stains may not be removable.
– To remove hardened residue on the cooktop, use a kitchen detergent for
easier cleaning.
EasyClean
LG’s EasyClean enamel technology provides two cleaning options for the inside
of the range. 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.
You can reduce energy use by cleaning light oven soils with the EasyClean
feature instead of Self Clean.
When needed, the range still provides the Self Clean option for longer, more
thorough oven cleaning for heavier, built up soils.
- For hard to reach areas such as the back surface of the oven, it is better to use the Self Clean cycle.
Benefits of EasyClean
- Helps loosen light soils before hand-cleaning
- EasyClean only uses water; no chemical cleaners
- Makes for a better Self Clean experience
– Delays the need for a Self Clean cycle
– Minimizes smoke and odors
– Can allow shorter Self Clean time
NOTE

EasyClean Instruction Guide
NOTE
-
Allow the oven to cool to room temperature before using the EasyClean cycle. If your oven cavity is above 150 °F (65 °C), Hot will appear in the display, and the EasyClean cycle will not be activated until the oven cavity cools down.
-
The range should be level to ensure that the bottom surface of the oven cavity is entirely covered by water at the beginning of the EasyClean cycle.
-
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 cycle.
-
Do not open the oven door during the EasyClean cycle. Water will not get hot enough if the door is opened during the cycle.
-
Remove oven racks and accessories from the oven.
-
Scrape off and remove any burnt-on debris with a plastic scraper. • Suggested plastic scrapers:
– Hard plastic spatula
– Plastic pan scraper
– Plastic paint scraper
– Old credit card -
Fill a spray bottle (10 oz or 300 ml) with water and use the spray bottle to thoroughly spray the inside surfaces of the oven.
-
Use at least 1/5 (2 oz or 60 ml) of the water in the bottle to completely saturate the soil on both the walls and in the corners of the oven.
-
Spray or pour the remaining water (8 oz or 240 ml) onto the bottom center of the oven cavity. The indentation on the oven bottom should be fully covered to submerge all soils.
Add water if necessary.
NOTE
• If cleaning multiple ovens, use an entire bottle of water to clean each oven. Do not spray water directly on the door. Doing so will result in water dripping to the floor. -
Close the oven door. Turn the oven mode knob to select EasyClean. Press START.
CAUTION
• Some surfaces may be hot after the EasyClean cycle. Wear rubber gloves while cleaning to prevent burns.
• During the EasyClean cycle, the oven becomes hot enough to cause burns. Wait until the cycle is over before wiping the inside surface of the oven. Failure to do so may result in burns.
• Avoid leaning or resting on the oven door glass while cleaning the oven cavity. -
A tone will sound at the end of the 10 minute cycle. Turn the oven mode knob to the OFF position to clear the display and end the tone.
-
After the cleaning cycle and during handcleaning, enough water should remain on the oven bottom to completely submerge all soils.
Add water if necessary. Place a towel on the floor in front of the oven to capture any water that may spill out during hand-cleaning. -
Clean the oven cavity immediately after the EasyClean cycle by scrubbing with a wet, nonscratch scouring sponge or pad. (The scouring side will not scratch the finish.) Some water may spill into the bottom vents while cleaning, but it will be captured in a pan under the oven cavity and will not hurt the burner. NOTE
• Do not use any steel scouring pads, abrasive pads or cleaners as these materials can permanently damage the oven surface. -
Once the oven cavity is cleaned, wipe any excess water with a clean dry towel. Replace racks and any other accessories.
-
If some light soils remain, repeat the above steps, making sure to thoroughly soak the soiled areas.
• For models with Self Clean function
– If stubborn soils remain after multiple EasyClean cycles, run the Self Clean cycle.
Be sure that the oven cavity is empty of oven racks and other accessories, and that the oven cavity surface is dry before running the Self Clean cycle. Consult the Self Clean section of your owner’s manual for further details. If a Self Clean option is not available, scrape off and remove stubborn soil using a scraper.
NOTE
- If you forget to saturate the inside of the oven with water before starting EasyClean, turn the oven mode knob to the OFF position to end the cycle. Wait for the range to cool to room temperature and then spray or pour water into the oven and start another EasyClean cycle.
- The cavity gasket may be wet when the EasyClean cycle finishes. This is normal. Do not clean the gasket.
- If mineral deposits remain on the oven bottom after cleaning, use a cloth or sponge soaked in vinegar to remove them.
- It is normal for the fan to operate during the EasyClean cycle.
- Using commercial oven cleaners or bleach to clean the oven is not recommended. Instead, use a mild liquid cleanser with a pH value below 12.7 to avoid discoloring the enamel.
Self Clean
The Self Clean cycle uses extremely hot temperatures to clean the oven cavity.
While running the Self Clean cycle, you may notice smoking or an odor. This is
normal, especially if the oven is heavily soiled. During Self Clean, the
kitchen should be well ventilated to minimize the odors from cleaning.
Before Starting Self Clean
-
Clean only parts listed in manual. Remove the oven racks, broiler pan, broiler grid, all cookware, aluminum foil or any other material from the oven.
– If oven racks are left in the oven cavity during the Self Clean cycle, they will discolor and become difficult to slide in and out. -
The kitchen should be well ventilated to minimize the odors from cleaning. Open a window or turn on a ventilation fan or hood before self-cleaning.
-
Wipe any heavy spillovers on the bottom of the oven.
-
Make sure that the oven light cover is in place and the oven light is off.
-
Clean the frame of the oven and door with hot soapy water. Rinse well.
WARNING
- If the oven is heavily soiled with oil, self-clean the oven before using the oven again. The oil could cause a fire.
- If there is a fire in the oven during self-clean, turn the oven off and wait for the fire to go out.
Do not force the door open. Introduction of fresh air at self-clean temperatures may lead to a burst of flame from the oven. Failure to follow this instruction may result in severe burns.
CAUTION
-
Do not use oven cleaners. Commercial oven cleaner or oven liner protective coating of any kind should not be used in or around any part ofthe oven.
-
The oven displays an F error code and sounds three long beeps during the self-cleaning process if it malfunctions in the self-clean mode.
Switch off the electrical power to the main fuse or breaker and have the oven serviced by a qualified technician. -
If the self cleaning mode malfunctions, turn the range off and disconnect the power supply. Haveit serviced by a qualified technician.
-
It is normal for parts of the oven to become hot during a Self Clean cycle. Avoid touching the cooktop, door, window or oven vent area duringa Self Clean cycle.
-
Do not leave small children unattended near the appliance. During the Self Clean cycle, the outside of the range can become very hot to the touch.
-
If you have pet birds, move them to another well-ventilated room. The health of some birds is extremely sensitive to the fumes given off during the Self Clean cycle of any range.
-
Do not line the oven walls, racks, bottom or any other part of the range with aluminum foil or any other material. Doing so will destroy heat distribution, produce poor baking results and cause permanent damage to the oven interior (aluminum foil will melt to the interior surface of the oven).
-
Do not force the door open. This can damage the automatic door locking system. Use care when opening the oven door after the Self Clean cycle. Stand to the side of the oven when opening the door to allow hot air or steam to escape. The oven may still be VERY HOT.
NOTE
-
The oven light cannot be turned on during a Self Clean cycle. The oven light cannot be turned on until the oven temperature has cooled below 500 ˚F (260 ˚C) after a Self Clean cycle is complete.
-
During the Self Clean cycle, the cooktop elements and warming drawer cannot be used.
-
Clean the frame of the oven and door with hot soapy water. Rinse well.
-
Do not clean the gasket. The fiberglass material of the oven door gasket cannot withstand abrasion. It is essential for the gasket to remain intact. If you notice it becoming worn or frayed, replace it.
-
It is normal for the fan to operate during the Self Clean cycle.
-
As the oven heats, you may hear sounds of metal parts expanding and contracting. This is normal and will not damage the oven.
-
You may notice some white ash in the oven.
Wipe it off with a damp cloth or a soap-filled steel wool pad after the oven cools. If the oven is not clean after one Self Clean cycle, repeat the cycle. -
If oven racks were left in the oven and do not slide smoothly after a Self Clean cycle, wipe racks and rack supports with a small amount of vegetable oil to make them glide more easily.
-
After a Self Clean cycle, fine lines may appear in the porcelain because it went through heating and cooling. This is normal and will not affect performance.
-
The Self Clean cycle cannot be started if the Control Lock / Lockout feature is active.
-
Once the Self Clean cycle is set, the oven door locks automatically. You will not be able to open the oven door until the oven is cooled. The lock releases automatically.
-
Once the door has been locked, the lock indicator light stops flashing and remains on. Allow about 15 seconds for the oven door lock to activate.
-
If the clock is set for a 12-hour display (default) the Delayed Self Clean can never be set to start more than 12 hours in advance.
-
After the oven is turned off, the convection fan keeps operating until the oven has cooled down.

TROUBLESHOOTING
FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What types of cookware are recommended for use with the cooktop?
– A:
• The pans must have a flat bottom and straight sides.
• Only use heavy-gauge pans.
• The pan size must match the amount of food to be prepared and the size of
the surface element.
• Use tight fitting lids.
• Only use flat-bottom woks.
Q: Why do the heating elements appear to be turning ON and OFF during use of the cooktop or oven?
– A: Depending on your cooktop element setting or the temperature selected in your oven it is NORMAL for the cooking elements to cycle on and off.
Q: My new oven doesn’t cook like my old one. Is there something wrong with the temperature settings?
– A: No. Your oven has been factory tested and calibrated. For the first few uses, follow your recipe times and temperatures carefully. If you still think your new oven is too hot or too cold, you can adjust the oven temperature yourself to meet your specific cooking needs. Refer to the Changing Oven Settings section in this manual for easy instructions on how to adjust your thermostat.
Q: Is it normal to hear a clicking noise coming from the back of my oven when I am using it?
– A: Your new range is designed to maintain a tighter control over your oven’s temperature. You may hear your oven’s heating elements click on and off more frequently on your new oven. This is NORMAL.
Q: Why is the time flashing?
– A: This means that the product has just been plugged in, or that it has experienced a power interruption. To clear the flashing time, touch any button and reset the clock if needed.
Q: During convection cooking the fan stops when I open the door. Is that normal?
– A: Yes, this is normal. When the door is opened, the convection fan will stop until the door is closed.
Q: Can I use aluminum foil to catch drippings in my oven cavity?
– A: Never use aluminum foil to line the bottom or sides of the oven or the warming drawer (on some models). The foil will melt and stick to the bottom surface of the oven and will not be removable. Use a foil-lined sheet pan placed on a lower oven rack to catch drippings instead. (If foil has already melted onto the bottom of the oven, it will not interfere with the oven’s performance.)
Q: Can I use aluminum foil on the racks?
– A: Do not cover racks with aluminum foil. Covering entire racks with foil
restricts air flow, leading to poor cooking results. Use a sheet pan lined
with foil under fruit pies or other acidic or sugary foods to prevent
spillovers from damaging the oven finish.
CAUTION
• Foil may be used to wrap food in the oven or warming drawer, but do not
allow the foil to come into contact with the exposed heating/broiling elements
in the oven. The foil could melt or ignite, causing smoke, fire, or injury.
Q: Can I leave my racks in the oven when running a Self Clean cycle? (On some models)
– A: No. Although it will not damage the racks, it will discolor them and may make them hard to slide in and out during use. Remove all items from the oven before starting a Self Clean cycle.
Q: What should I do if my racks are sticky and have become hard to slide in and out?
– A: Over time, the racks may become hard to slide in and out. Apply a small amount of olive oil to the sides of the racks. This will work as a lubricant for easier gliding.
Q: What should I do for hard to remove stains on my cooktop?
– A: The cooktop should be cleaned after every use to prevent permanent staining. When cooking foods with high sugar content, such as tomato sauce, clean the stain off with a scraper while the cooktop is still warm. Use an oven mitt when scraping to prevent burns. Refer to the MAINTENANCE section of this owner’s manual for further instruction.
Q: Why aren’t the function buttons working?
– A: Make sure that the range is not in Control Lock / Lockout mode. The lock k will show in the display if Control Lock / Lockout is activated. To deactivate Control Lock / Lockout, refer to the Control Lock / Lockout section. The unlock melody sounds and Loc appears in the display until the controls are unlocked.
Q: My range is still dirty after running the EasyClean cycle. What else should I do?
– A: The EasyClean 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 cycle.
Q: I tried scrubbing my oven after running EasyClean, but some soils still remain. What can I do?
– A: The EasyClean 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 process using sufficient water.
• For models with Self Clean function:
Sugar-based and certain greasy soils are especially hard to clean. If some
stubborn soils remain, use the Self Clean feature to thoroughly clean your
oven.
Q: Soils on my oven walls are not coming off. How can I get the oven walls clean?
– A: Soils on the side and rear walls of your oven range may be more difficult to fully soak with water. Try repeating the EasyClean process with more than the ¼ cup (2 oz or 60 ml) of spray recommended.
Q: Will EasyClean get all of the soils and stains out completely?
– A: 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.
• For models with Self Clean function:
If stubborn or built-up stains remain, use the Self Clean feature. Refer to
the Self Clean section of your owner’s manual.
Q: Are there any tricks to getting some of the stubborn soils out?
– A: Scraping the soils with a plastic scraper before and during hand-cleaning
is recommended. Fully saturating soils with water is also recommended.
• For models with Self Clean function:
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.
Q: Is it safe for my convection fan or heater element to get wet during EasyClean?
– A: Yes. The convection fan 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.
Q: Do I need to use all 1 ¼ cups (10 oz or 300 ml) of water for EasyClean?
– A: Yes. It is highly recommended that 1 cup (8 oz or 240 ml) of water be sprayed or poured on the bottom and an additional ¼ cup (2 oz or 60 ml) of water be sprayed on walls and other soiled areas to fully saturate the soils for better cleaning performance.
Q: I see smoke coming out of my oven range’s cooktop vents during EasyClean. Is this normal?
– A: 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.
Q: How often should I use EasyClean?
– A: EasyClean can be performed as often as you wish. EasyClean 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 section in your owner’s manual for more information.
Q: What is required for EasyClean?
– A: A spray bottle filled with 1¼ cups (10 oz or 300 ml) of water, a plastic scraper, a non-scratch 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.
Q: Can I run the EasyClean cycle on both of my ovens at once?
– A: Yes. You can run the EasyClean cycle on both ovens at the same time. Some
oven surfaces will be hot after the cycle completes running. Avoid leaning or
resting on the oven door glass while cleaning the oven cavities.
You cannot run the Self Clean cycle on both ovens at the same time.

PROCEDURE FOR RESOLVING DISPUTES:
ALL DISPUTES BETWEEN YOU AND LG ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING IN ANY WAY TO THIS
LIMITED WARRANTY OR THE PRODUCT SHALL BE RESOLVED EXCLUSIVELY THROUGH BINDING
ARBITRATION, AND NOT IN A COURT OF GENERAL JURISDICTION. BINDING ARBITRATION
MEANS THAT YOU AND LG ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL AND TO BRING
OR PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION.
Definitions. For the purposes of this section, references to “LG” mean LG
Electronics U.S.A., Inc., its parents, subsidiaries and affiliates, and each
of their officers, directors, employees, agents, beneficiaries, predecessors
in interest, successors, assigns and suppliers; references to “dispute” or
“claim” shall include any dispute, claim or controversy of any kind whatsoever
(whether based in contract, tort, statute, regulation, ordinance, fraud,
misrepresentation or any other legal or equitable theory) arising out of or
relating in any way to the sale, condition or performance of the product or
this Limited Warranty.
Notice of Dispute. In the event you intend to commence an arbitration
proceeding, you must first notify LG in writing at least 30 days in advance of
initiating the arbitration by sending a letter to LG at LG Electronics, USA,
Inc. Attn: Legal Department- Arbitration 111 Sylvan Avenue, Englewood Cliffs,
NJ 07632 USA. You and LG agree to engage in good faith discussions in an
attempt to amicably resolve your claim.
The notice must provide your name, address, and telephone number; identify the
product that is the subject of the claim; and describe the nature of the claim
and the relief being sought. If you and LG are unable to resolve the dispute
within 30 days, either party may proceed to file a claim for arbitration.
Agreement to Binding Arbitration and Class Action Waiver. Upon failure to
resolve the dispute during the 30 day period after sending written notice to
LG, you and LG agree to resolve any claims between us only by binding
arbitration on an individual basis, unless you opt out as provided below. Any
dispute between you and LG shall not be combined or consolidated with a
dispute involving any other person’s or entity’s product or claim. More
specifically, without limitation of the foregoing, any dispute between you and
LG shall not under any circumstances proceed as part of a class or
representative action. Instead of arbitration, either party may bring an
individual action in small claims court, but that small claims court action
may not be brought on a class or representative basis.
Arbitration Rules and Procedures. To begin arbitration of a claim, either you
or LG must make a written demand for arbitration. The arbitration will be
administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) and will be
conducted before a single arbitrator under the AAA’s Consumer Arbitration
Rules that are in effect at the time the arbitration is initiated (referred to
as the “AAA Rules”) and under the procedures set forth in this section. The
AAA Rules are available online at
www.adr.org/consumer. Send a copy of your
written demand for arbitration, as well as a copy of this provision, to the
AAA in the manner described in the AAA Rules. You must also send a copy of
your written demand to LG at LG Electronics, USA, Inc. Attn: Legal Department-
Arbitration 111 Sylvan Avenue, Englewood Cliffs, NJ 07632 USA. If there is a
conflict between the AAA Rules and the rules set forth in this section, the
rules set forth in this section will govern. This arbitration provision is
governed by the Federal Arbitration Act. Judgment may be entered on the
arbitrator’s award in any court of competent jurisdiction. All issues are for
the arbitrator to decide, except that issues relating to the scope and
enforceability of the arbitration provision and to the arbitrability of the
dispute are for the court to decide. The arbitrator is bound by the terms of
this provision.
Governing Law. The law of the state of your residence shall govern this
Limited Warranty and any disputes between us except to the extent that such
law is preempted by or inconsistent with applicable federal law.
Fees/Costs. You do not need to pay any fee to begin an arbitration. Upon
receipt of your written demand for arbitration, LG will promptly pay all
arbitration filing fees to the AAA unless you seek more than $25,000 in
damages, in which case the payment of these fees will be governed by the AAA
Rules. Except as otherwise provided for herein, LG will pay all AAA filing,
administration and arbitrator fees for any arbitration initiated in accordance
with the AAA Rules and this arbitration provision. If you prevail in the
arbitration, LG will pay your attorneys’ fees and expenses as long as they are
reasonable, by considering factors including, but not limited to, the purchase
amount and claim amount. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if applicable law
allows for an award of reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, an arbitrator
can award them to the same extent that a court would. If the arbitrator finds
either the substance of your claim or the relief sought in the demand is
frivolous or brought for an improper purpose (as measured by
the standards set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b)), then the
payment of all arbitration fees will be governed by the AAA Rules. In such a
situation, you agree to reimburse LG for all monies previously disbursed by it
that are otherwise your obligation to pay under the AAA Rules. Except as
otherwise provided for, LG waives any rights it may have to seek attorneys’
fees and expenses from you if LG prevails in the arbitration.
Hearings and Location. If your claim is for $25,000 or less, you may choose to
have the arbitration conducted solely on the basis of (1) documents submitted
to the arbitrator, (2) through a telephonic hearing, or (3) by an in-person
hearing as established by the AAA Rules. If your claim exceeds $25,000, the
right to a hearing will be determined by the AAA Rules. Any in-person
arbitration hearings will be held at a location within the federal judicial
district in which you reside unless we both agree to another location or
we agree to a telephonic arbitration.
Opt Out. You may opt out of this dispute resolution procedure. If you opt out,
neither you nor LG can require the other to participate in an arbitration
proceeding. To opt out, you must send notice to LG no later than 30 calendar
days from the date of the first consumer purchaser’s purchase of the product
by either: (i) sending an e-mail to optout@lge.com,
with the subject line: “Arbitration Opt Out” or (ii) calling
1-800-980-2973. You must include in the
opt out e-mail or provide by telephone: (a) your name and address; (b) the
date on which the product was purchased; (c) the product model name or model
number; and (d) the serial number (the serial number can be found (i) on the
product; or (ii) online by accessing https://www.lg.com/us/support/repair-
service/schedule-repair continued and clicking on “Find My Model & Serial
Number”).
You may only opt out of the dispute resolution procedure in the manner
described above (that is, by e-mail or telephone); no other form of notice
will be effective to opt out of this dispute resolution procedure. Opting out
of this dispute resolution procedure will not affect the coverage of the
Limited Warranty in any way, and you will continue to enjoy the full benefits
of the Limited Warranty. If you keep this product and do not opt out, then you
accept all terms and conditions of the arbitration provision described above.
