Steam Cleaning
Steam cleaning uses steam to help dissolve food residue
and spills in the oven so that they can be easily wiped up.
Steam cleaning includes an exposure phase at
210°F (99°C), a cleaning phase at cooler temperatures,
and two rinse cycles. Steam cleaning requires a total time
of 30 – 35 minutes.
You can start Steam Clean only when the oven is set
to OFF and is completely cooled down.
IMPORTANT:
Steam Cleaning requires 3 start/stop cycles to complete its
operation. Once started, the Steam Cleaning operation
cannot be aborted. The appliance will not operate again
until after the first and second rinse cycle to ensure that no
cleaning agent remains inside.
NOTE:
If the door is opened for less than a minute while the mode
is running, the mode will pause and the oven timer
countdown will suspend. When the door is closed, the
mode and oven timer will resume. If the door remains open
for more than 30 seconds, the mode will spool back to the
beginning and the steam clean cycle will start from the
beginning.

white stains immediately after the appliance has cooled down.
