WARNING
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.
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. · Surface units
may be hot even though they are dark in color. Areas near surface units may
become hot enough to cause burns. During and after use, DO NOT TOUCH SURFACE
UNITS OR AREAS NEAR UNITS or let clothing or other flammable materials contact
surface units or areas near units until they have had sufficient time to cool.
This includes the cooktop and the area above the oven door. · 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.
6 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
· 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 hot surface between the bottom of
the oven door and the top of the drawer on the front of the oven while the
oven is in operation. The surface becomes hot and can cause burns and other
injury. · 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 allow
children to remain unsupervised near the oven or cooktop.
Maintenance
· Do not store items of interest to children in cabinets above a range or on
the back guard of a range. Children climbing on the range to reach items could
be seriously injured.
· Do not allow children to crawl into the oven. · Let hot cookware and
utensils cool in a safe place, out of reach of small children. · If the door
glass, cooktop glass, surface, or oven heating unit of the range are damaged,
discontinue use
of the range and call for service. · Do not allow anyone to climb, stand or
hang on the door, storage drawer or cooktop. They could
damage the range and even tip it over, causing severe personal injury. ·
Always disconnect power from the appliance before servicing. · Before
replacing the oven light, switch off the electrical power to the oven at the
main fuse or circuit
breaker panel. Failure to do so can result in severe personal injury, death,
or electrical shock. · Never pour cold water over a hot oven for cleaning.
Doing so may cause the oven to malfunction.
Risk of Fire and Flammable Materials
· Do not store or use flammable material in the oven or near or on the
cooktop. Flammable materials include paper, plastic, pot holders, linens, wall
coverings, curtains, and gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids such
as grease or cooking oil. These materials can be ignited when the oven and
cooktop are in use.
· Use extreme caution when moving or disposing of hot grease. · Wear proper
apparel. Do not wear loose-fitting or hanging garments, which may ignite if
they contact
hot surfaces, and cause severe burns. · Do not use the oven for drying
clothes. Only use the oven for its intended purpose.
ENGLISH
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS 7
· If cabinet storage is provided directly above the cooking surface, only use
it to store items that are not frequently used and can be safely stored in an
area subjected to heat. Temperatures may be unsafe for volatile items such as
flammable liquids, cleaners or aerosol sprays.
· Do not use water on grease fires. Should an oven fire occur, leave the oven
door closed and turn the oven off. If the fire continues, throw baking soda on
the fire or use a fire extinguisher. Do not put water or flour on the fire.
Flour may be explosive and water can spread a grease fire and cause personal
injury.
CAUTION
CAUTION
· To reduce the risk of minor injury to persons, malfunction, or damage to the
product or property when using this product, follow basic precautions,
including the following:
Operation
· Always heat fat slowly, and watch as it heats. · If frying combinations of
oils and fats, stir them together before heating. · Use a deep fat
thermometer, if possible, to prevent overheating fat 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. · Accessible parts may become hot
when the broiler is in use. · Do not place food or cookware on the bottom of
the oven cavity. Doing so will cause permanent damage
to the oven bottom finish. · When using cooking or roasting bags in the oven,
follow the manufacturer’s directions. · To protect against food-borne
illnesses, cook meat and poultry thoroughly. The USDA has indicated the
following as safe minimum internal temperatures for consumption: – Ground
beef: 160 °F – Poultry: 165 °F – Beef, veal, pork, or lamb: 145 °F –
Fish/seafood: 145 °F
Maintenance
· Do not repair or replace any part of the appliance unless specifically
recommended in the manual. All other servicing should be performed by a
qualified technician.
· Do not use harsh etching, abrasive cleaners or sharp metal scrapers to clean
the oven door glass because they can scratch the surface. Scratches may cause
the glass to shatter.
· Make sure oven lights are cool before cleaning. · Do not clean the door
gasket. The door gasket is essential for a good seal. Care should be taken not
to
rub, damage, or move the gasket.

Cooktop
Before Using the Cooktop
WARNING · Do not cook on a broken cooktop. If the cooktop
is broken, cleaning solutions and spillovers may penetrate the broken cooktop
and create a risk of electric shock. Contact a qualified technician
immediately.
· Do not place or store items that can melt or catch fire on the glass
cooktop, even when it is not being used.
· Never leave hot cookware or utensils near the control panel, as the heat
could damage the control panel.
· Turn cookware handles inward so they don’t extend over adjacent surface
units. This reduces the risk of burns, ignition of flammable materials, and
spillage due to unintentional contact with the cookware.
· Some cleaners can produce dangerous fumes if applied to a hot surface.
· Always place the pan in the center of the surface unit you are cooking on.
Never leave surface units unattended at high heat settings. Proper contact of
cookware to burner also will improve efficiency. Boilovers cause smoking and
greasy spills that may catch on fire.
· Clean cooktop with caution. Do not use sponges or cloth to wipe spills on a
hot cooking area. Use a proper metal scraper. If a wet sponge or cloth is used
to wipe spills on a hot cooking area, it can cause steam burns. Some cleaners
can produce noxious fumes if applied to a hot surface.
CAUTION · Do not use the glass cooktop surface as a cutting
board.
· Choose proper burner size. For smaller pots and pans, use the smaller
heating elements. For larger pots and pans, use the larger heating elements.
Select pans that have flat bottoms large enough to cover the heating elements.
Using undersized pans exposes a portion of the heating element to direct
contact and may result in clothing burning.
· Glazed cookware. Only certain types of glass, glass-ceramic, ceramic,
earthenware, or other glazed cookware are suitable for range-top service
without breaking due to the sudden change in temperature.
· Never cook directly on the glass. Always use cookware.
· Always turn the surface units off before removing cookware.
· Immediately clean spills on the cooking area to prevent a tough cleaning
chore later.
· Do not turn surface units on before placing cookware.
· Do not store heavy items above the cooktop surface that could fall and
damage it.
· Do not place aluminum foil or plastic items such as salt and pepper shakers,
spoon holders, or plastic wrappings or any other material on the range when it
is in use.
· Do not use a steel-wool pad or scrub pad or abrasive cleaning pads. They can
scratch the surface.
Cooking Areas
The cooking areas on your range are identified by permanent circles on the
glass cooktop surface. For the most efficient cooking, fit the pan size to the
element size. Pans should not extend more than 1/2 to 1-inch beyond the
cooking area. When a control is turned on, a glow can be seen through the
glass cooktop surface.
NOTE · It is normal for the surface elements to cycle on
and off during cooking, even on higher settings. This will happen more
frequently if cooking on a lower temperature setting.
a SINGLE b DUAL
NOTE · It is normal to see a very faint red ring around
the outer edge of a dual or triple element when using it as a single element
at a high heat setting. This is only a reflection from the bright
ENGLISH
glow of the center element and is not a malfunction.
Using the Cooktop Elements
CAUTION · Only use cookware and dishes that are safe for
oven and cooktop use. · Always use oven mitts when removing food from
the cooktop and oven. · Do not place sealed containers on the cooktop. · Do
not use plastic wrap to cover food while on
the cooktop. Plastic may melt onto the surface and be very difficult to
remove. · Never leave food on the cooktop unattended. Spillovers can cause
smoke. Greasy spillovers may catch on fire. · The surface element may appear
to have cooled after it has been turned off. The element may still be hot and
touching the element before it has cooled sufficiently can cause burns. ·
Match the size of the cooktop 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.
NOTE · Hot Surface Indicator
– The hot surface indicator light glows as long as any surface cooking area is
too hot to touch.
– It remains on after the element is turned off and until the surface has
cooled to approximately 150 °F.

Using the Proper Cookware
The size and type of cookware will influence the settings needed for the best
cooking results. Be sure to follow the recommendations for using proper
cookware.
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.
Cookware should have flat bottoms that make good contact with the entire
surface heating element. Check for flatness by placing a ruler across the
bottom of the cookware. The ruler
Cookware Recommendations · Flat bottom and straight sides · Heavy-gauge pans ·
Pan sizes that match the amount of food to be
prepared and the size of the surface element · Weight of handle does not tilt
pan. Pan is well
balanced · Tight-fitting lids · Flat bottom woks
Cookware should not
· have a curved or warped bottom.
· be smaller or larger than the surface burner.
· have a heavy handle that tilts the pan.
· be a wok with a ring stand.
· have loose or broken handles. · have loose-fitting lids.
NOTE · Do not use pans less than 7 inches in diameter
on the front elements. · Do not use foil or foil-type containers. Foil may
melt onto the glass. Do not use the cooktop if metal has melted on it. Call an
authorized LG Service Center.
Choosing Cookware The cookware material determines how evenly and quickly heat
is transferred from the surface element to the pan bottom. The most popular
materials available are:
· Aluminum – Excellent heat conductor. Some types of food will cause it to
darken (anodized aluminum cookware resists staining and pitting). If aluminum
pans slide across the ceramic cooktop, they may leave metal marks which will
resemble scratches. Remove these marks immediately.
· Copper – Excellent heat conductor but discolors easily. May leave metal
marks on glass-ceramic (see Aluminum above).
· Stainless steel – Slow heat conductor with uneven cooking results. Is
durable, easy to clean and resists staining.
· Cast iron – A poor heat conductor but retains heat very well. Cooks evenly
once cooking temperature is reached. Not recommended for use on ceramic
cooktops.
· Porcelain-enamel on metal – Heating characteristics will vary depending on
base material. Porcelain-enamel coating must be smooth to avoid scratching
ceramic cooktops.
· Glass – Slow heat conductor. Not recommended for ceramic cooktop surfaces
because it may scratch the glass.
Home Canning Tips Be sure that the canner is centered over the surface element
and is flat on the bottom.
· The base must not be more than 1 inch larger than the element. Use of water
bath canners with rippled bottoms may extend the time required to bring the
water to a boil and may damage the cooktop.
· Some canners are designed with smaller bases for use on smooth surfaces.
· Use the high heat setting only until the water comes to a boil or pressure
is reached in the canner.
· Reduce to the lowest heat setting that maintains the boil, or pressure. If
the heat is not turned down, the cooktop may be damaged.
OPERATION 27
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. · The heat turns off if the door is opened during baking.
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.
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.
a Oven Vent b Vent Trim
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.
ENGLISH
28 OPERATION
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. · Do not place objects heavier than 33 lb (15 kg)
on the racks. Do not place heavy objects on the corners of the racks. Doing so
can damage the racks.
Removing Racks
1 Pull the rack straight out until it stops.
2 Lift up the front of the rack and pull it out.
Replacing Racks
1 Place the end of the rack on the support.
2 Tilt the front end up and push the rack in.
Bake
Bake is used to prepare foods such as pastries, breads and casseroles. The
oven can be programmed to bake at any temperature from 200 °F (93 °C) to 500
°F (260 °C).
NOTE
· In case of setting temperature less than 400 8.
– Preheat the oven for 15 minutes for baking.
· In case of setting temperature more than 400 8.
– Preheat the oven for 20 minutes for baking.
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.
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.
Rack and Pan Placement

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
ENGLISH
30 OPERATION
NOTE · This range is designed for closed-door broiling.
Close the door to set the Broil function. Opening the door turns off the broil
heater during broiling. If the door is opened during broiling, the broil
heater turns off. The broiler turns back on automatically once the door is
closed.
Setting the Oven to Broil
1 Turn the oven mode knob to select Broil.
2 Let the oven preheat for approximately 7
minutes before cooking the food if using broil.
3 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.
· 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

· This guide is only for reference. Adjust cook time according to your preference.
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.
Warm
This function maintains an oven temperature of 170 °F. The Warm function may
be used without any other cooking operations.
Setting the Warm Function
1 Turn the oven mode knob to select Warm.
NOTE
· The Warm function is intended to keep food warm. Do not use it to cool food

MAINTENANCE
Cleaning
CAUTION · Do not clean this appliance with bleach. · To prevent burns, wait
until the cooktop has
cooled down before touching any of its parts. · Always wear gloves when
cleaning the cooktop.
General Cleaning Tips
· 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.

aluminum or copper are allowed to boil dry, the overlay may leave a black
discoloration on the cooktop. This should be removed immediately before
heating again or the discoloration may be permanent.
EasyClean
This feature is only available on some models.
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,
ENGLISH
and it runs using ONLY WATER for just 20 minutes in low temperatures to help
loosen LIGHT soils before hand cleaning. EasyClean is quick and effective for
small and LIGHT soils. 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.
Benefits of EasyClean
· Helps loosen light soils before hand-cleaning
· EasyClean only uses water; no chemical cleaners
· Makes for a better Self Clean experience (On some models)
– Delays the need for a Self Clean cycle
– Minimizes smoke and odors
– Can allow shorter Self Clean time
NOTE · For models without Self Clean option
– The EasyClean feature may not be effective in removing heavy, built-up
soils. Because the range does not include a Self Clean option, clean the oven
regularly using the EasyClean feature to prevent heavy, burnt-on soil from
building up in the oven.
MAINTENANCE 37
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),
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.
1 Remove oven racks and accessories from the
oven.
2 Scrape off and remove any burnt-on debris
with a plastic scraper.
When to Use EasyClean
· Example of oven soiling
Case 1 – Soil pattern: Small drops or spots – Types of soils: Cheese or other
ingredients – Common food items that can soil your oven:
Pizza
Case 2 – Soil pattern: Light splatter – Types of soils: Fat/grease – Common
food items that can soil your oven:
Steaks, broiled / Fish, broiled / Meat roasted at low temperatures
· Suggested plastic scrapers: – Hard plastic spatula – Plastic pan scraper –
Plastic paint scraper – Old credit card
3 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.
4 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.
38 MAINTENANCE
9 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.)
5 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.
6 Close the oven door.
· Turn the oven mode knob to select EasyClean.
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.
7 After 3 minutes, turn the oven mode knob to
the OFF position and need to wait 17 minutes more.
8 After the cleaning cycle and during hand-
cleaning, 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.
NOTE · Do not use any steel scouring pads, abrasive
pads or cleaners as these materials can permanently damage the oven surface.
10 Once the oven cavity is cleaned, wipe any
excess water with a clean dry towel. Replace racks and any other accessories.
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. 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. · 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.

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: 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: 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:
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?
42 TROUBLESHOOTING
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:
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:
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:
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.

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
50 LIMITED WARRANTY
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 1800-980-2973. 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”).
LIMITED WARRANTY 51
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.
