IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USE
Safety Messages
Your safety and the safety of others are very important.
We have provided many important safety messages in this manual and on your appliance. Always read and
follow all safety messages.
All safety messages will tell you what the potential hazard is, tell you how to reduce the chance of injury,
and tell you what may happen if the instructions are not followed.
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
Never allow anyone to climb, sit, stand or hang on the oven door. Injury might result from contact with
hot food or the oven itself.
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 on the interior surface of the oven.)
Do not use aluminum foil or any other material to line the oven bottom. Improper installation of oven
liners may result in a risk of electric shock or fire.
Make sure your appliance is properly installed and grounded by a qualified installer, according to the
installation instructions. Any adjustment and service should be performed only by qualified installers or
service technicians.
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.
The electrical power must be shut off while the electrical connections are being made.
Improper connection of aluminum house wiring to copper leads can result in an electrical hazard or fire.
Use only connectors designed for joining copper to aluminum and follow the manufacturer’s
recommended procedure closely.
Important – Save for the local electrical inspector's use
This is the safety alert symbol.
This symbol alerts you to potential hazards that can kill or injure you and others. All safety messages
will follow the safety alert symbol and either the word WARNING or CAUTION.
These words mean:
WARNING
You may be killed or seriously injured if you do not follow instructions.
CAUTION
You may be injured or cause damage to the product if you do not follow instructions.

4 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Operation
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 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 allowed to cool.
Use care when opening 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 an oven or cooktop. 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.
Do not allow aluminum foil or the temperature probe to contact heating elements.
Do not touch the oven racks while they are hot.
Only arrange oven racks when the oven is cool. 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.
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.
DO NOT block the oven vent during operation. This can damage the electric parts of the oven. Air must
be able to move freely. The bottom vent trim should be properly assembled on the front bottom of oven
before installing the oven door.
Do not put large, heavy items such as whole turkeys on the open oven door.
Take care when the door is open to avoid injury.
If the door or door seals are damaged, the oven must not be operated until it has been repaired by a
competent person.
Do not allow children to crawl into the oven.
Do not put your hand under the controller or between the door and bottom vent trim during operation.
The outside of the oven can become very hot to the touch.
Maintenance
Let hot cookware and utensils cool in a safe place, out of reach of small children.
If the door glass, surface, or oven heating unit of the appliance are damaged, discontinue use of the
appliance and call for service.
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.
Never pour cold water over a hot oven for cleaning purposes.

5IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
ENGLISH
Do not clean with metal scouring pads. Pieces can burn off the pad and touch electrical parts causing a
risk of electric shock.
Do not store any materials, other than manufacturer’s recommended accessories, in this oven when not
in use.
Do not cover racks or any other part of the oven with metal foil. This will cause overheating of the oven.
If the self-cleaning mode malfunction light goes on, or if the audible signal sounds, turn off or
disconnect the appliance from the power supply and have it serviced by a qualified technician.
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.
If your oven is dropped or damaged, have it thoroughly checked by a qualified service technician before
using it.
Risk of Fire and Flammable Materials
Do not store or use flammable material in or near the oven. 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 is 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.
If cabinet storage is provided directly above the oven, 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 grill 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.
background
6 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
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 (71 )
- Poultry: 165 °F (74 )
- Beef, veal, pork, or lamb: 145 °F (63 )
- Fish/seafood: 145 °F (63 )
Do not use this oven for commercial purposes. It is made for household use only.
The door or the outer surface may get hot when the appliance is operating.
Do not use this oven for purposes other than cooking.
Use caution if opening the door when the oven is operating. Hot surfaces can cause serious burns.
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 since
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.
Never keep pet birds in the kitchen. The health of birds is extremely sensitive to the fumes released
during an oven self-clean cycle. Fumes may be harmful or fatal to birds. Move birds to a well-ventilated
room.
Do not rinse trays and racks by placing them in water just after cooking. This may cause breakage or
damage.
The oven should be cleaned regularly and any food deposits should be removed. Failure to maintain the
oven in a clean condition could lead to deterioration of the surface that could shorten the life of the
appliance and possibly result in a hazardous situation.
Clean in the self-clean cycle only parts listed in this manual. Before self-cleaning the oven, remove the
broiler pan, all oven racks and any utensils or food from the oven.
Do not store items of interest to children on the back guard or in cabinets above a cooking appliance.
Children climbing on the oven to reach items could be seriously injured.

Operating the 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.
If the door is left open for longer than 30
seconds during baking, the heater turns off. The
heater 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. 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.
WARNING
Do not block the vent opening at the bottom of
the oven.
Using Heavy Duty Oven Racks
The racks have a turned-up back edge that
prevents them from being pulled out of the oven

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.
Using Gliding Oven Racks
The optional gliding racks slide in and out on a
frame. This keeps heavy cookware level and
prevents it from sliding forward when the rack is
completely extended.
CAUTION
Place oven racks in the desired location before
turning on the oven to avoid 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.
Installing Gliding Racks
1 Start with the rack in the closed position. Hold
the rack with one hand at the center front and
the other hand at the back right corner.
2 Carefully insert the rack between the rack
guides, and slide it back until the shelf drops
into place.

Baking Tips
For best results, food should be placed on a
single rack with at least 1” to 1 1/2” of air space
between the pans and oven walls.
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 Guide
Rack and Pan Placement
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.
If baking with more than one pan, place the pans
so that each one has at least 1" (25 mm) to 1 1/2"
(38 mm) of air space around them.

Broil Mode
Setting the Oven to Broil
Broiling uses an intense, radiant heat to cook food.
Both the inner and outer broil elements heat
during full broiling. Only the inner broil element
heats during center broiling. The element(s) cycle
on and off at intervals to maintain the oven
temperature.
Keep the oven door closed while broiling. Let the
oven preheat for approximately 5 minutes before
cooking food.
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.
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 cause a grease fire to
spread and cause personal injury.
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 appliance 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 OPEN appears on the display.
Close the door and reset the Broil function. If the
door is opened during broiling, the broil burner
turns off after 5 seconds. The broiler turns back
on automatically once the door is closed.

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
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.

20 OPERATION
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 (71.1 )
- Poultry: 165 (73.9 )
- Beef, veal, pork, or lamb: 145 (62.8 )
- Fish / Seafood: 145 (62.8 )
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 Mode
This function will maintain an oven temperature of
less than 200 (93 ). It will keep cooked food
warm for serving up to 3 hours after cooking has
finished.

Cleaning
Interior
Do not use oven cleaners to clean the oven cavity.
Use the product's EasyClean function regularly to
clean light soil. For stubborn soil, use the Self
Clean function (on some models) or clean
manually using the following 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 local
stores, can also help improve cleaning.
CAUTION
Do not use oven cleaners, harsh chemical
cleaners, bleach, vinegar, steel scouring pads, or
abrasive pads or cleansers to clean the oven, as
they can permanently damage the oven surface.
Do not clean the gasket.
Exterior
Painted and Decorative Trim
For general cleaning, use a cloth with hot soapy
water. For more difficult soils and built-up grease,
apply a liquid detergent directly onto the soil.
Leave it on for 30 to 60 minutes. Rinse with a damp
cloth and dry. Do not use abrasive cleaners.
Stainless Steel Surfaces
To avoid scratches, do not use steel wool pads.
1 Place a small amount of stainless steel
appliance cleaner or polish on a damp cloth or
paper towel.
2 Clean a small area, rubbing with the grain of
the stainless steel if applicable.
3 Dry and buff with a clean, dry paper towel or
soft cloth.
4 Repeat as necessary.
NOTE
To clean the stainless steel surface, use warm
sudsy water or a stainless steel cleaner or polish.
Always wipe in the direction of the metal surface
finish.
Stainless steel appliance cleaner or polish can be
purchased online or from most retailers of
appliances or home goods.
Oven Cavity
DO NOT use oven cleaners.
NEVER wipe a warm or hot porcelain surface with a
damp sponge; it may cause chipping or crazing
(tiny hairlike cracks). Food spills should be cleaned
when the oven cools. At high temperature, foods
react with porcelain and a permanent dull spot can
result. When cleaning a spot, use only non-
abrasive cleaners or scrubbers.

NOTE
If the racks are cleaned using the Self Clean cycle
(not recommended), the color will turn slightly
blue and the finish will become dull. After the Self
Clean cycle is complete, and the oven has cooled,
rub the sides of the racks with wax paper or a cloth
containing a small amount of vegetable oil. This
will make the racks glide more easily into the rack
tracks.
EasyClean
LG’s EasyClean enamel technology provides two
cleaning options for the inside of the oven. The
EasyClean feature takes advantage of LG’s 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 oven 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

EasyClean Instruction Guide
NOTE
Allow the oven to cool to room temperature
before using the EasyClean cycle. If your oven
cavity is above 150 (65 ), the EasyClean cycle
will not be activated until the oven cavity cools
down.
The oven 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.
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.
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 Press UPPER EasyClean or LOWER EasyClean
.
7 Press START. The remaining time appears in
the display.
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.

ENGLISH
8 A tone will sound at the end of the 10 minute
cycle. Press Upper CLEAR / OFF or Lower
CLEAR / OFF to end the EasyClean mode and
the tone.
9 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.
10 Clean the oven cavity immediately after the
EasyClean cycle by scrubbing with a wet, non-
scratch 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.
11 Once the oven cavity is cleaned, wipe any
excess water with a clean dry towel. Replace
racks and any other accessories.
12 If some light soils remain, repeat the above
steps, making sure to thoroughly soak the
soiled areas.
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.
NOTE
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 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 off 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.
background
30 MAINTENANCE
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 of
the 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
oven off and disconnect the power supply. Have
it serviced by a qualified technician.
It is normal for parts of the oven to become hot
during a Self Clean cycle. Avoid touching the
door, window or oven vent area during a Self
Clean cycle.
Do not leave small children unattended near the
appliance. During the Self Clean cycle, the
outside of the oven 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 oven.
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 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 (260 ) after a Self Clean cycle is
complete.
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 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
k
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 cooling fan

FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions
CAUTION
Foil may be used to wrap food in the oven, 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: 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 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 appliance 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: 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. 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.
Q: Can I leave my racks in the oven when running a Self Clean cycle?
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: Should I broil with the door open or closed?
A: Your oven isn't designed for open door broiling. If you broil with the oven door open, it can damage
the display.
Q: Why aren't the function buttons working?
A:
Make sure that the appliance is not in Control Lock mode. The lock
k will show in the display if
Control Lock is activated. To deactivate Control Lock, refer to the Control Lock section. The unlock
melody sounds and
Loc appears in the display until the controls are unlocked.
Q: My appliance is still dirty after running the EasyClean cycle. What else should I do?
background
34 TROUBLESHOOTING
A: The EasyClean cycle only helps to loosen light soils in your appliance to assist in hand-cleaning of
your oven. It does not automatically remove all soils after the cycle. Some scrubbing of your
appliance 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.
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 appliance 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.
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.
However, 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: 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 appliance’s 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.
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
background

ENGLISH
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. 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 [email protected]
, 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 and clicking on “How do I find my model number?”).
