Cleaning The Water Tank - LG WSED3067M Owner's Manual

50 MAINTENANCE
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 the tank to the Max line. Use softened,
filtered water, if possible. Hard water may
clog the steam generator more quickly with
scale buildup.
4
Press Cleaning in the Main Menu screen,
then press EasyClean.
5
Press the START/STOP button on the control
panel. The remaining time appears in the
display.
6
A tone will sound at the end of the 10 minutes
cycle and Cleaning is finished appears in the
display. Press the START/STOP button on 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.
7
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.
8
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.
9
Once the oven cavity is cleaned, wipe any
excess water with a clean dry towel. Replace
racks and any other accessories.
10
If some light soils remain, repeat the above
steps, making sure to thoroughly soak the
soiled areas.
• Be sure that the oven cavity is empty of
oven racks and other accessories.
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.

Cleaning the Water Tank

The water tank is used during the steam cooking
functions. Use filtered, softened water if possible.
