RANGE MAINTENANCE AND CARE

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:

  • Remove all racks and accessories from the oven cavity, and wipe excess soil. Use a plastic scraper to remove easily removed soils.

  • Pour 13/4 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.
  • Press CLEAN/AQUALIFT SELF CLEAN and then STARTon the oven control panel.
  • Allow 40 minutes for cleaning and cooldown. A beep will sound when the Clean cycle is complete.
  • 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.
  • Remove the residual water and loosened soils with a sponge or cloth immediately after the Clean cycle is complete. Much of the initial 13/4 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.

  • 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
  • Affresh® Kitchen Appliance Cleaner and affresh® Cooktop Cleaner may be used to clean the oven bottom, walls, and door when the oven has finished the cycle and returned to room temperature. If affresh® Cooktop Cleaner is used, it is recommended to wipe out the cavity with distilled water as well. Refer to the Quick Start Guide for ordering information.

Electronic Ignition System

Initial Lighting and Gas Flame Adjustments

Cooktop and oven burners use electronic igniters in place of standing pilots. When the cooktop control knob is turned to the “LITE” position, the system creates a spark to light the burner. This sparking continues, as long as the control knob is turned to “LITE.”

When the oven control is turned to the desired setting, sparking occurs and ignites the gas.

Check Operation of Cooktop Burners

Standard Surface Burners

Push in and turn each control knob to the “LITE” position.

The flame should light within 4 seconds. The first time a burner is lit, it may take longer than 4 seconds to light because of air in the gas line.

If Burners Do Not Light Properly:

  • Turn cooktop control knob to the “OFF” position.
  • Check that the range is plugged in. Check that the circuit breaker has not tripped or the household fuse has not blown.
  • Check that the gas shutoff valves are set to the “open” position.
  • Check that burner caps are properly positioned on burner bases.

Repeat start-up. If a burner does not light at this point, turn the control knobs to the “OFF” position and contact your dealer or authorized service company for assistance.

Check Operation of Oven Bake Burner

  • Remove the oven rack.
  • To remove the oven bottom: Remove 2 screws at the rear of the oven bottom. Lift the rear of the oven bottom up and back until the front of the panel is away from the front frame. Remove it from oven and place on a covered surface.
