OPERATION

Gas Surface Burners

Before Use

Read all instructions before using.

Make sure that all burners are properly placed.

Make sure that all grates are properly placed before using the burner.

CAUTION

Do not operate the burner for an extended period of time without cookware on the grate.

The finish on the grate may chip without cookware to absorb the heat.

Make sure the burners and grates are cool before touching them, or placing a pot holder, cleaning cloth, or other materials on them.

Touching grates before they cool down may cause burns.

Burner Locations

Your gas range cooktop has four or five sealed gas burners, depending on the model. These can be assembled and separated. Follow the guide below.

1. Medium and Large Burners

The medium and large burners are the primary burners for most cooking. These general purpose burners can be turned down from Hi to Lo to suit a wide range of cooking needs.

2. Small Burner

The smallest burner is used for delicate foods such as sauces or foods that require low heat for a long cooking time.

3. Extra Large Burner

The extra large burner is the maximum output burner. Like the other four burners, it can be turned down from Hi to Lo for a wide range of cooking applications. This burner is also designed to quickly bring large amounts of liquid to a boil. It can be used with cookware 10 inches or larger in diameter.

4. Oval Burner

The center, oval burner is for use with a griddle or oval pots.

Using the Gas Surface Burners

  1. Be sure that all of the surface burners and grates are placed in the correct positions.
  2. Place cookware on the grate.
  3. Push the control knob and turn to the Lite position. The electric spark ignition system makes a clicking noise.
  4. Turn the control knob to control the flame size.

Setting the Flame Size

Watch the flame, not the knob, as you reduce heat. Match the flame size on a gas burner to the cookware being used for fastest heating.

In Case of Power Failure

In case of a power failure, you can light the gas surface burners on your range with a match.

Surface burners in use when an electrical power failure occurs will continue to operate normally.

  1. Hold a lit match to the burner, then push in the control knob.
  2. Turn the control knob to the Lo position.

Range-Top Cookware

AluminumMedium-weight cookware is recommended because it heats quickly and evenly. Most foods brown evenly in an aluminum skillet. Use saucepans with tight fitting lids when cooking with minimum amounts of water.
Cast-IronIf heated slowly, most skillets will give satisfactory results.
Stainless SteelThis metal alone has poor heating properties and is usually combined with copper, aluminum or other metals for improved heat distribution. Combination metal skillets work satisfactorily if they are used with medium heat as the manufacturer recommends
EnamelwareUnder some conditions, the enamel of this cookware may melt. Follow cookware manufacturer’s recommendations for cooking methods
GlassThere are two types of glass cookware. Those for oven use only and those for top-of-range cooking.
Heatproof Glass CeramicCan be used for either surface or oven cooking. It conducts heat very slowly and cools very slowly. Check cookware manufacturer’s directions to be sure it can be used on gas ranges.

Using a Wok

If using a wok, use a 14-inch or smaller flat-bottomed piece of wok. Make sure that the wok bottom sits flat on the grate

CAUTION Do not use a wok support ring. Placing the ring over the burner or grate may cause the burner to work improperly, resulting in carbon monoxide levels above allowable standards. This can be hazardous to your health.

Using Stove-Top Grills

Do not place stove-top grills on the burner.

CAUTION Do not use stove top grills on the surface burners. Using a stove top grill on the surface burner will cause incomplete combustion and can result in exposure to carbon monoxide levels above allowable current standards. This can be a health hazard.

Using the Griddle

(For Model : LSG4513)

The non-stick coated griddle provides an extra-large cooking surface for meats, pancakes or other food usually prepared in a frying pan or skillet.

How to Place the Griddle: The griddle can only be used with the center burner. The griddle must be properly placed on the center grate, as shown below.

Preheat the griddle according to the guide below and adjust for the desired setting.

NOTE After cooking on the griddle for an extended period, adjust the griddle temperature settings as the griddle retains heat.

IMPORTANT NOTES

  • Avoid cooking extremely greasy foods as grease spillover can occur.
  • The griddle can become hot when surrounding burners are in use.
  • Do not overheat the griddle. This can damage the non stick coating.
  • Do not use metal utensils that can damage the griddle surface. Do not use the griddle as a cutting board.
  • Do not place or store items on the griddle.

The Oven

Before Use

Read all instructions before using.

Make sure the electrical power cord and the gas valve are properly connected.

Confirm the correct usage of the range for the type of food you will cook.

Make sure you know how to use the oven (temperature setting, time setting and recipe) for best results.

In case of power failure, do not use the oven.

The oven and broiler cannot be used during a power outage. If the oven is in use when a power failure occurs, the oven burner shuts off and cannot be re-lit until power is restored. Once power is restored, you will need to reset the oven (or Broil function).

Do not block, touch or place items around the oven vent during cooking.

Your oven is vented through ducts at the center above the burner grate. Do not block the oven vent when cooking to allow for proper air flow. Do not touch vent openings or nearby surfaces during any cooking operation.

Do not cover racks or oven bottom with aluminum foil.

You may see condensation on the oven door glass.

As the oven heats up, the heated air in the oven may cause condensation to appear on the oven door glass. These water drops are harmless and will evaporate as the oven continues to heat up.

MAINTENANCE

Removing and replacing the Gas Surface Burners

Grates and burner heads/caps can be removed for care and cleaning.

Cleaning Burner Heads/Caps

For even and unhampered flame, the slits in the burner heads must be kept clean at all times.The burner heads and caps (and the oval burner head and cap assembly) can be lifted off. Do not attempt to remove the oval burner cap.

  • Wash the burner caps in hot soapy water and rinse with clean water. Run water through the oval burner from the bottom stem to flush out debris.
  • Use care when cleaning the cooktop. The pointed metal ends on the electrodes could cause injury. Hitting an electrode with a hard object may damage it.
  • To remove burnt-on food, soak the burner heads in a solution of mild liquid detergent and hot water for 20–30 minutes. For stubborn stains, use a toothbrush or wire brush.
  • The burners will not operate properly if the burner ports or electrodes are clogged or dirty.
  • Burner caps and heads should be cleaned routinely, especially after excessive spillover.
  • Burners will not light if the cap is removed.

After Cleaning the Burner Heads/ Caps

Shake out any excess water and then let them dry thoroughly. Placing the oval burner upside down will allow the water to drain out more easily. Replace the burner heads and caps over the electrodes on the cooktop in the correct locations according to their size. Make sure the hole in the burner head is positioned over the electrode.

Burner Grates

The range consists of three separate professional style grates. For maximum stability, these grates should only be used when in their proper position. The center grate can be interchanged from front to back.

Cleaning the Cooktop Surface

Foods with high acid or sugar content may cause a dull spot if allowed to set. Wash and rinse soon after the surface has cooled. For other spills such as oil/ grease spattering, etc., wash with soap and water when the surface has cooled, then rinse and polish with a dry cloth.

Oven Air Vents

Air openings are located at the rear of the cooktop, at the top and bottom of the oven door, and at the bottom of the range

Control Panel

To prevent activating the control panel during cleaning, unplug the range. Clean up splatters with a damp cloth using a glass cleaner. Remove heavier soil with warm, soapy water. Do not use abrasives of any kind.

Front Manifold Panel and Knobs

It is best to clean the manifold panel after each use of the range. For cleaning, use a damp cloth and mild soapy water or a 50/50 solution of vinegar and water. For rinsing, use clean water and polish dry with a soft cloth.

Cleaning the 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.

Oven Door

  • Use soapy water to thoroughly clean the oven door. Rinse well. Do not immerse the door in water.
  • You may use a glass cleaner on the outside glass of the oven door. Do not spray water or glass cleaner on the door vents.
  • Do not use oven cleaners, cleaning powders, or harsh abrasive cleaning materials on the outside of the oven door.
  • Do not clean the oven door gasket. The oven door gasket is made of a woven material that is essential for a good seal. Care should be taken not to rub, damage, or remove this gasket.

Door Care Instructions

Most oven doors contain glass that can break.

Oven racks

Remove the oven racks before operating the self clean cycle (For Model : LSG4513) and EasyClean®.

  1. Food spilled into the tracks could cause the racks to become stuck. Clean with a mild, abrasive cleaner.
  2. Rinse with clean water and dry.

EasyClean®

LG’s EasyClean® enamel technology provides two cleaning options for the inside of the range. The EasyClean® feature takes advantage of LG’s new enamel to help lift soils without harsh chemicals, and it runs using ONLY WATER for just 10 minutes in low temperatures to help loosen LIGHT soils before handcleaning.

  • For Model : LSG4513

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.

When needed, the range still provides the self clean option for longer, more thorough oven cleaning for heavier, built up soils.

Benefits of EasyClean®

  • Helps loosen light soils before hand-cleaning
  • EasyClean® only uses water; no chemical cleaners
  • Makes for a better self-clean experience (For Model : LSG4513)
    • Delays the need for a self-clean cycle
    • Minimizes smoke and odors
    • Can allow shorter self-clean time

Cleaning Tips

  • Allow the oven to cool to room temperature before using the EasyClean® cycle. If your oven cavity is above 150 °F (65 °C), Hot will appear in the display, and the EasyClean® cycle will not be activated until the oven cavity cools down.
  • 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.
  • 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.
  • For hard to reach areas such as the back surface of the oven, it is better to use the Self Clean cycle. (For Model : LSG4513)

EasyClean® Instruction Guide

  1. Remove oven racks and accessories from the oven.
  2. Scrape off and remove any burnt-on debris with a plastic scraper.
  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.
  6. Close the oven door. Turn the oven mode knob to select EasyClean®. Press Start.
  7. A tone will sound at the end of the 10 minute cycle. Turn the oven mode knob to the Off position to clear the display and end the tone.
  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.
  9. 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.
  10. Once the oven cavity is cleaned, wipe any excess water with a clean dry towel. Replace racks and any other accessories.
  11. If some light soils remain, repeat the above steps, making sure to thoroughly soak the soiled areas.
  • For Model : LSG4513

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.

Self Clean (For Model : LSG4513)

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

  • Remove the oven racks, broiler pan, broiler grid, all cookware, aluminum foil or any other material from the oven.
  • The kitchen should be well ventilated to minimize the odors from cleaning.
  • Wipe any heavy spillovers on the bottom of the oven.
  • Make sure that the oven light bulb cover is in place and the oven light is off.
  • The oven light cannot be turned on during a Self Clean cycle. The oven light cannot be turned on until the oven temperature has cooled below 500 ˚F (260 ˚C) after a Self Clean cycle is complete.

During the Self Clean cycle, the cooktop elements and warming drawer cannot be used.

  • Make sure that the oven light bulb cover is in place and the oven light is off.
  • It is normal for the fan to operate during the Self Clean cycle.

Setting Self Clean

The Self Clean function has cycle times of 2, 3, or 5 hours.

During 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.
  • As the oven heats, you may hear sounds of metal parts expanding and contracting. This is normal and will not damage the oven.
  • Do not force the oven door open when the lock is displayed. The oven door remains locked until the oven temperature has cooled. Forcing the door open will damage the door.

After the Self Clean Cycle

  • The oven door remains locked until the oven temperature has cooled.
  • 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.
  • Fine lines may appear in the porcelain because it went through heating and cooling. This is normal and will not affect performance.

Changing the Oven Light

The oven light is a standard 40-watt appliance bulb. It turns on when the oven door is open. When the oven door is closed, press Light to turn it on or off.

  1. Unplug the range or disconnect power.
  2. Turn the glass bulb cover in the back of the oven counterclockwise to remove.
  3. Turn the bulb counterclockwise to remove it from the socket.
  4. Insert the new bulb and turn it clockwise.
  5. Insert the glass bulb cover and turn it clockwise.
  6. Plug in the range or reconnect the power.

Removing and replacing the Lift-Off Oven Doors and Drawer

Removing the Door

  1. Fully open the door.
  2. Unlock the hinge locks, rotating them as far toward the open door frame as they will go.
  3. Firmly grasp both sides of the door at the top.
  4. Close the door to the removal position (approximately five degrees) which is halfway between the broil stop position and fully closed. If the position is correct, the hinge arms will move freely.
  5. Lift door up and out until the hinge arms are clear of the slots.

Replacing the Door

  1. Firmly grasp both sides of the door at the top.
  2. With the door at the same angle as the removal position, seat the indentation of the hinge arms into the bottom edge of the hinge slots. The notch in the hinge arms must be fully seated into the bottom edge of the slots.
  3. Open the door fully. If the door will not open fully, the indentation is not seated correctly in the bottom edge of the slots.
  4. Lock the hinge locks, rotating them back toward the slots in the oven frame until they lock.
  5. Close the oven door.

Removing the Drawer

Most cleaning can be done with the drawer in place; however, the drawer may be removed if further cleaning is needed. Use warm water to thoroughly clean.

  1. Fully open the drawer.
  2. Locate the glide lever on each side of the drawer. Push down on the left glide lever and pull up on the right glide lever.
  3. Pull the drawer away from the range.

Replacing the Drawer

  1. Pull the bearing glides to the front of the chassis glide.

  3. Push the drawer into the range until levers click (approximately 2 inch)
  4. Pull the drawer open again to seat bearing glides into position.

TROUBLESHOOTING

FAQs

What types of cookware are recommended for use with the cooktop?

  • 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.

Why do the heating elements appear to be turning On and OFF during use of the cooktop or oven?

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.

My new oven doesn’t cook like my old one. Is there something wrong with the temperature settings?

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 Oven Temperature Adjustment section in this manual for easy instructions on how to adjust your thermostat.

Is it normal to hear a clicking noise coming from the back of my oven when I am using it?

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.

Why is the colon in the clock flashing?

This means that the product has just been plugged in, or that it has experienced a power interruption. To clear the flashing colon in the clock, press any key or reset the clock if needed.

During convection cooking the fan stops when I open the door. Is that normal?

Yes, this is normal. When the door is opened, the convection fan will stop until the door is closed.

Can I use aluminum foil to catch drippings in my oven cavity?

Never use aluminum foil to line the bottom or sides of the oven or the warming drawer. The foil will melt and stick to the bottom surface of the oven and will not be removable. Use a 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.)

Can I use aluminum foil on the racks?

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.

Can I leave my racks in the oven when running a Self Clean cycle? (For Model : LSG4513)

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.

What should I do if my racks are sticky and have become hard to slide in and out?

Over time, the racks may become hard to slide in and out. Apply a small amount of olive oil to the ends of the racks. This will work as a lubricant for easier gliding.

What should I do for hard to remove stains on my cooktop?

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.

Why aren't the function buttons working?

Make sure that the range is not in Lockout mode. The lock will show in the display if Lockout is activated. To deactivate Lockout, pressing Probe or Clock for three seconds. The unlock melody sounds and Loc appears in the display until the controls are unlocked.

My range is still dirty after running the EasyClean® cycle. What else should I do?

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.

I tried scrubbing my oven after running EasyClean®, but some soils still remain. What can I do?

The EasyClean® feature works best when the soils are fully soaked and submerged in water before running the cycle and during hand-cleaning. If soils are not sufficiently soaked in water, it can negatively affect the cleaning performance. Repeat the EasyClean® process using sufficient water.

• For Model : LSG4513

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.

Soils on my oven walls are not coming off. How can I get my walls clean?

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) spray recommended.

Will EasyClean® get all of the soils and stains out completely?

It depends on the soil type. Sugar-based and certain grease stains are especially hard to clean. Also, if stains are not sufficiently soaked in water, this can negatively affect cleaning performance.

  • For Model : LSG4513

If stubborn or built-up stains remain, use the Self Clean feature. Refer to the Self Clean section of your owner's manual.

Are there any tricks to getting some of the stubborn soils out?

Scraping the soils with a plastic scraper before and during hand-cleaning is recommended. Fully saturating soils with water is also recommended.

  • For Model : LSG4513

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.

Is it safe for my convection fan, broil burner or heater element to get wet during EasyClean®?

Yes. The convection fan, broiler burner or heater element may get a little wet during cleaning. However, direct spray onto the broil burner and heater elements is not necessary because these are self-cleaning during regular use.

Do I need to use all 1¼ cups (10 oz or 300 ml) of water for EasyClean®?

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.

I see smoke coming out of my oven range’s cooktop vents during EasyClean®. Is this normal?

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.

How often should I use EasyClean®?

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.

What is required for EasyClean®?

A spray bottle filled with 1¼ cups (10 oz or 300 ml) of water, a plastic scraper, a non-scratch scrubbing pad and a towel. You should not use abrasive scrubbers such as heavy-duty scouring pads or steel wool. Except for a towel, all of the materials you need are included in a special cleaning kit with your new range.

Is it safe for water to spill into the oven bottom vents during cleaning?

Some water spillage into the oven bottom vents (gas range) is okay. However, it is recommended to try avoid spilling too much water into the vents.
