    More Oven Cleaning Tips

    • DO NOT use any stainless steel cleaners or conditioners on black stainless steel. Black steel can simply be cleaned with mild, soapy water and a soft cloth.
    • DO NOT use any chlorine-based cleaners, abrasive cleaners or cloths.
    • Always remove all racks from the oven before activating the self-clean feature. Telescopic racks will get damaged if they left in the oven during self-cleaning. They will get stuck and you won’t be able to pull them out.
    • Make sure the oven vents are clear and unblocked. These vents release hot air. It’s normal to see hot air or steam escaping from these vents.
    • If you see an “E” with a number on the display (ex: E30), press any key to stop the beeping. This is an error code message. Reset the oven by turning it off at the breaker. Wait 30 minutes, then turn the breaker on. The oven should return to normal. However, if the error code appears again, please take note of it and call service provider.
