Metal Marks and Scratches
CAUTION
• Cookware with rough or uneven bottoms can mark or scratch the cooktop surface.
• Do not slide metal or glass across the cooktop surface.
• Do not use cookware with any dirt build-up on the bottom.
• Do not use cookware if there are foreign matters on the cooktop surface. Always clean the cooktop
surface before cooking.
NOTE
• Any damage or failure of the product resulting from the items below may not be covered under the
LIMITED WARRANTY.
- Be careful not to slide pots and pans across the cooktop. Doing so will leave metal markings on the
cooktop surface. To help remove these marks, use a ceramic cooktop cleaner with a cleaning pad for
ceramic cooktops.
- If pots with a thin overlay of aluminum or copper are allowed to boil dry, the overlay may leave a black
discoloration on the cooktop. This should be removed immediately before heating again or the
discoloration may be permanent.
EasyClean
This feature is only available on some models.
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 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 range still provides the Self
Clean option for longer, more thorough oven
cleaning for heavier, built up soils. (On some
models)
• 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 (On
some models)
- Delays the need for a Self Clean cycle
- Minimizes smoke and odors
- Can allow shorter Self Clean time
NOTE
• For models without Self Clean option
- The EasyClean feature may not be effective in
removing heavy, built-up soils. Because the
range does not include a Self Clean option,
clean the oven regularly using the EasyClean
feature to prevent heavy, burnt-on soil from
building up in the oven.
