Clean Cycle
AquaLift
®
Technology is an innovative cleaning solution that
utilizes heat and water to release baked-on spills from the oven in
less than 1 hour. This new cleaning technology is a low-heat,
odor-free alternative to traditional self-cleaning options.
Allow the oven to cool to room temperature before using the Clean
cycle. If your oven cavity is above 200°F (93°C), it will appear in
the display, and the Clean cycle will not be activated until the oven
cavity cools down.
To Clean:
1.
Remove all racks and accessories from the oven cavity, and
wipe excess soil. Use a plastic scraper to remove easily
removed soils.
2.
Pour 1
3
/
4
cups (14 oz [414 mL]) of distilled or filtered water
onto the bottom of the empty oven, and close the oven door.
IMPORTANT:
Do not use chemicals or other additives with the
water. Do not open the oven door during the Clean cycle. The
water on the oven bottom is hot.
3.
Press CLEAN/AQUALIFT SELF CLEAN and then START on
the oven control panel.
4.
Allow 40 minutes for cleaning and cooldown. A beep will
sound when the Clean cycle is complete.
5.
Press OFF/CANCEL/CANCEL UPPER at the end of the cycle.
OFF/CANCEL/CANCEL UPPER may be pressed at any time
to stop the Clean cycle.
6.
Remove the residual water and loosened soils with a sponge
or cloth immediately after the Clean cycle is complete. Much
of the initial 1
3
/
4
cups (14 oz [414 mL]) of water will remain in
the oven after the cycle is completed. If additional soils
remain, leave a small amount of water in the oven bottom to
assist with the cleaning.
7.
If
any
soils
remain,
remove
them
with
a
nonscratch
scrubbing
sponge
or
plastic
scraper.
Additional
Clean
cycles
may
be
run
to
help
remove
the
stubborn
soils.
IMPORTANT:
Do
not
use
oven
cleaners.
The
use
of
chemicals,
including
commercial
oven
cleaners
or
metal
scouring
pads,
may
cause
permanent
damage
to
the
porcelain
surface
of
the
oven
interior.
NOTE:
�
The
range
should
be
level
to
ensure
that
the
entire
surface
of
the
bottom
of
the
oven
cavity
is
covered
by
water
at
the
beginning
of
the
Clean
cycle.
�
For
best
results,
use
distilled
or
filtered
water.
Tap
water
may
leave
mineral
deposits
on
the
oven
bottom.
�
Before
removing
the
residual
water
and
loosened
soils
at
the
end
of
the
Clean
cycle,
insert
a
cloth
or
paper
towel
between
the
lower
edge
of
the
oven
door
and
the
front
frame
to
keep
water
from
spilling
onto
the
front
of
the
range
and
the
floor.
�
Soil
baked
on
through
several
cooking
cycles
will
be
more
difficult
to
remove
with
the
Clean
cycle.
�
Nonabrasive
scrub
sponges
or
eraser-style
cleaning
pads
(without
cleaners)
can
be
effective
for
cleaning
the
oven
cavity
walls,
oven
door,
and
oven
bottom
for
difficult
soils.
For
best
results,
moisten
the
pads
and
sponges
before
use.
�
Run
an
additional
Clean
cycle
for
stubborn
soils.
�
