Steam Clean
(on some models)
The Steam Clean feature is designed for light oven cavity bottom
cleaning on models that have hidden bake in both ovens.
Allow the range to cool to room temperature before using the
Steam Clean feature. If your oven cavity is above 100°F (38°C),
“Oven Cooling” will appear in the display and the Steam Clean
feature will not activate until it cools down.
■ Remove all racks and accessories from the oven cavity.
■ For best results, use 16 oz (473 mL) of distilled or filtered water.
■ The Steam Clean feature will take a total of 20 minutes. A beep
will sound at the end of the cycle.
IMPORTANT: Because the water in the oven bottom is hot, do not
open the oven door during the Steam Clean cycle.
Press any CANCEL at any time to end the cycle. The display will
return to the time of day.
Helpful Hints
■ Once the Steam Clean cycle is complete, remove all remaining
water in the bottom of the oven with a sponge or cloth.
■ Wipe any remaining moisture from the oven door interior, oven
cavity interior sides, and cooktop.
■ Use a soft brush or nylon scrubber to wipe the oven interior.
This may help with more stubborn stains.
■ It is recommended to use distilled or filtered water, as tap water
may leave mineral deposits on the oven bottom. Use a cloth
soaked with vinegar or lemon juice to remove any mineral
deposits that may be left after the Steam Clean cycle.
■ If the oven is heavily soiled, use the Self-Clean cycle. The
Steam Clean cycle may be used first to eliminate most of the
debris, resulting in a more effective self-clean.
To Steam Clean:
1. Remove all racks and accessories from the oven cavity.
2. Press STEAM CLEAN.
3. Use the number keypad to select the desired oven.
4. Open the oven door of the selected oven and pour 16 oz
(473 mL) of distilled or filtered water to the oven bottom. Then

6. After 20 minutes, a beep will sound to signal the end of the

down oven interior. If needed, use a non-scratch copper
scrubbing pad to remove stubborn soils.
