Tips for Convection Baking |
•• Baking time and temperature will vary depending on the characteristics, size, and shape of the baking pan used.
•• Check for food doneness at the minimum recipe time.
•• Use metal bakeware (with or without a nonstick finish), heatproof glass-ceramic, ceramic or other bakeware recommended for oven use.
•• Dark metal pans or nonstick coatings will cook food faster with more browning. Insulated bakeware will slightly lengthen the cooking time for most foods.
NOTE
The oven bottom has a porcelain-enamel finish. To make cleaning easier, protect the oven bottom from excessive spillovers by placing a cookie sheet on the rack below the rack you are cooking on. This is particularly important when baking a fruit pie or other foods with a high acid content. Hot fruit fillings or other foods that are highly acidic may cause pitting and damage to the porcelain-enamel surface and should be wiped up immediately.
Convection Mode
The convection system uses a fan to circulate the heat evenly within the oven. Improved heat distribution allows for even cooking and excellent results while cooking with single or multiple racks.
Setting the Convection Function (example, 375 °F)
1 |
Turn the oven mode knob to select the |
|
Conv. Bake or Conv. Roast. |
2 |
Set the oven temperature: for example, press |
|
plus(+) until 375 °F appears in the display. |
3 |
Press Start. The display shows Conv. Bake or |
|
Conv. Roast and the oven temperature starting |
at 100 °F.
As the oven preheats, the display shows increasing temperatures in 5-degree increments. Once the oven reaches the set adjusted temperature, a tone sounds and the oven light flashes on and off. The display shows the auto converted oven temperature, 350 °F and the fan icon.
4 |
When cooking has finished or to cancel, turn the |
|
oven mode knob to the Off position. |
NOTE
The oven fan runs while convection baking. The fan stops when the door is open. In some cases, the fan may shut off during a convection bake cycle.
•• Use Convection Bake for faster and more even multiple-rack cooking of pastries, cookies, muffins, biscuits, and breads of all kinds.
•• Bake cookies and biscuits on pans with no sides or very low sides to allow heated air to circulate around the food. Food baked on pans with a dark finish will cook faster.
•• If cooking on single rack, place the rack in the position suggested in the charts on the following pages. If cooking on multiple racks, place the oven racks in positions 3 and 5 (for two racks).
•• Multiple oven rack cooking may slightly increase cook times for some foods.
•• Cakes, cookies and muffins have better results when using multiple racks.
The Convection Roast feature is designed to give optimum roasting performance. Convection Roast combines cooking with the convection fan to roast meats and poultry. The heated air circulates around the food from all sides, sealing in juices and flavors. Foods are crispy brown on the outside while staying moist on the inside. Convection roasting is especially good for large tender cuts of meat, uncovered.
Tips for Convection Roasting
Use a broiler pan and grid when preparing meats for roasting. The broiler pan catches grease spills and the grid helps prevent grease splatters.
1 |
Place the oven rack in the position suggested in |
|
the charts on the following pages. |
2 |
Place the grid in the broiler pan. |
3 |
Place the broiler pan on the oven rack. |
Grid (sold separately)
Broiler pan (sold separately)
CAUTION
•• Do not use a broiler pan without a grid.
•• Do not cover the grid with aluminum foil.
•• Position food (fat side up) on the grid.

OPERATION 35
Broil |
Smoking |
The Broil function uses intense heat from the upper heating element to cook food. Broiling works best for tender cuts of meat, fish, and thinly cut vegetables.
Some models may feature a hybrid broiler consisting of an inner broiler that utilizes a carbon heating element which provides instantaneous heat, and
a traditional outer broiling element. During normal broiler operation, it is normal for either element to cycle off intermittently.
CAUTION
•• Do not use a broiler pan without a grid. Oil can cause a grease fire.
•• Do not cover the grid and broiler pan with aluminum foil. Doing so will cause a fire.
•• Always use a broiler pan and grid for excess fat and grease drainage. This will help to reduce splatter, smoke, and flare-ups.
NOTE
•• This range is designed for closed-door broiling. Close the door to set the Broil function. If the door is open, the Broil function cannot be set and door appears on the display. Close the door and reset the Broil function. Opening the door turns off the broil burner during broiling. If the door is opened during broiling, the broil burner turns off after five seconds. The broiler turns back on automatically once the door is closed.
Speed Broil
The Speed Broil setting is designed to reduce the amount of time it takes to broil foods. By utilizing the infrared broil element, which provides heat instantaneously, there is no need for preheating.
Setting the oven to Broil / Speed Broil
1 |
Turn the oven mode knob to select Broil or |
|
Speed Broil. |
2 |
Press plus(+) or minus(-) to select Hi or Lo. |
3 |
Press Start. The oven begins to heat. |
4 |
Let the oven preheat for approximately five |
|
minutes before cooking the food if using broil. |
5 |
Turn the oven mode knob to the Off position to |
|
cancel at any time or when cooking is complete. |
Due to the intense heat associated with broiling, it is normal to experience smoke during the cooking process. This smoke is a natural byproduct of
searing and should not cause you to worry. If you are experiencing more smoke than you are comfortable with, use the following tips to reduce the amount of smoke in your oven.
1 |
Always use a broiler pan. Do not use saute pans |
|
or regular baking sheets for safety reasons. |
2 |
The broiler pan should always be thoroughly |
|
cleaned and at room temperature at the |
|
beginning of cooking. |
3 |
Always run your cooktop ventilation system or |
|
vent hood during broiling. |
4 |
Keep the interior of your oven as clean as |
|
possible. Leftover debris from prior meals can |
|
burn or catch fire. |
5 |
Avoid fatty marinades and sugary glazes. Both |
|
of these will increase the amount of smoke you |
|
experience. If you would like to use a glaze, |
|
apply it at the very end of cooking. |
6 |
If you are experiencing significant smoke with |
|
any food item, consider: |
|
•• Lowering the broiler to the Lo setting. |
|
•• Lowering the rack position to cook the food |
|
further away from the broiler. |
|
•• Using the Hi broil setting to achieve the level of |
|
searing you desire, and then either switching |
|
to the Lo broil setting, or switching to the Bake |
|
function. |
7 |
As a rule, fattier cuts of meat and fish will |
|
produce more smoke than leaner items. |
8 |
Adhere to the recommended broil settings and |
|
cooking guidelines in the chart on the following |
page whenever possible.

Do not leave smaller quantities or heat-sensitive food, such as eggs, in the warming drawer more than 30 minutes. The maximum operating time is three hours.
CAUTION
•• Do not use the warming drawer for storage of racks, broiler pans, insert pans, plates, or utensils. The warming drawer contains a
heating element which may damage any items not specifically designed to be used with it and should only be used to store cookware specifically supplied by LG with your range.
•• Do not put food or foil directly on the surface or base of the warming drawer. This may result in damage to your drawer and may spoil your food.
•• Do not place plastic wrap in the warming drawer or use it to cover food being heated in the warming drawer. Plastic may melt onto the drawer or surrounding areas and is very difficult to remove. Use only aluminum foil or
cookware that is capable of withstanding baking temperature to heat or cover your food.
•• Do not use the warming drawer to heat water or any other liquids. Spilled liquids may cause an electrical short or result in severe personal injury, electric shock or death.
•• Never place plastics, paper, canned foods or other combustible material into the warming drawer. These items pose a severe risk of fire, damage and injury.
•• In the unlikely event that an item falls behind the warming drawer, always turn the power off and wait for the warming drawer to cool before retrieving the item. Never attempt to retrieve any items that fall behind the warming drawer without first turning the power off and ensuring the warming drawer cavity has cooled off. Failure to do so may result in severe personal injury, electric shock or death.
•• Do not touch the surface of the warming drawer while it is in operation. Use oven mitts or hot pads when inserting or removing food to avoid burns or other injury.
•• Do not leave food in the warming drawer for longer than one hour. Eating food which has been heated for too long at low temperatures can lead to food-borne illnesses.

MAINTENANCE
Cleaning the Glass-Ceramic
Cooktop
CAUTION
•• Do not use scrub pads or abrasive cleaning pads. They may damage your cooktop surface.
•• For your safety, wear an oven mitt or pot holder while using a scraper on the hot cooking surface.
•• Read and follow all instructions and warnings on the cleaning cream label.
Use ceramic cooktop cleaner on the glass cooktop. Other creams may not be as effective or may scratch, damage or stain the cooktop surface.
To maintain and protect the surface of the glass cooktop, follow these steps:
1 |
Before using the cooktop for the first time, clean |
|
it with a ceramic cooktop cleaner. This helps |
|
protect the top and makes cleanup easier. |
2 |
Use ceramic cooktop cleaner daily to help keep |
|
the cooktop looking new. |
3 |
Shake the cleaning cream well. Apply a few |
|
drops of cleaner directly to the cooktop. |
4 |
Use a paper towel to clean the entire cooktop |
|
surface. |
5 |
Rinse with clear water and use a dry cloth or |
|
paper towel to remove all cleaning residue. |
NOTE
Do not heat the cooktop until it has been cleaned thoroughly.
IMPORTANT
If any sugar or food containing sugar (preserves, ketchup, tomato sauce, jellies, fudge, candy, syrups, chocolate) spills, or plastic or foil melts on the cooktop, remove the molten material IMMEDIATELY with a metal razor scraper (it will not damage the decorated cooking surface) while the cooking surface is still hot to avoid the risk of damage to the glass-ceramic surface. For your safety, please use an oven mitt or pot holder while scraping the hot cooking surface.
Burned-On Residue
1 While the cooktop is still hot, remove any burnt on deposits or spilled food from the glass-ceramic cooking surface with a suitable metal razor scraper. (Similar to scraping paint off of a windowpane, it will not damage the decorated cooking surface.) Hold the scraper at an approximate 30° angle to the cooktop.
NOTE
•• Do not use a dull or nicked blade.
•• To prevent burns, wear an oven mitt or pot holder while using the metal scraper.
2 When the cooking surface has cooled down, apply a few dabs (about the size of a dime) of an approved cleaner in each burner area and work the cleaning cream over the cooktop surface with a damp paper towel.

44 MAINTENANCE
Metal Marks and Scratches EasyClean®
1 |
Be careful not to slide pots and pans across the |
|
cooktop. Doing so will leave metal markings on |
|
the cooktop surface. |
2 |
To help remove these marks, use a ceramic |
|
cooktop cleaner with a cleaning pad for ceramic |
cooktops.
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.
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.
When needed, the range still provides the self clean option for longer, more thorough oven cleaning for heavier, built up soils.
Benefits of EasyClean®
•• Helps loosen light soils before hand-cleaning
•• EasyClean® only uses water; no chemical cleaners
•• Makes for a better self-clean experience
-Delays the need for a self-clean cycle
-Minimizes smoke and odors
-Can allow shorter self-clean time

Cleaning Tips
•• Allow the oven to cool to room temperature before using the EasyClean® cycle. If your oven cavity is above 150 °F (65 °C), Hot will appear in the display, and the EasyClean® cycle will not be activated until the oven cavity cools down.
•• A plastic spatula can be used as a scraper to scrape off any chunks or debris before and during oven cleaning.
•• Using the rough side of a non-scratch scouring pad may help to take off burnt-on stains better than a soft sponge or towel.
•• Certain non-scratch scrubbing sponges, such as those made of melamine foam, available at your local stores, can also help improve cleaning.
•• The range should be level to ensure that the bottom surface of the oven cavity is entirely covered by water at the beginning of the EasyClean® cycle.
•• For best results, use distilled or filtered water. Tap water may leave mineral deposits on the oven bottom.
•• Soil baked on through several cooking cycles will be more difficult to remove with the EasyClean® cycle.
•• Do not open the oven door during the EasyClean® cycle. Water will not get hot enough if the door is opened during the cycle.
•• For hard to reach areas such as the back surface of the oven, it is better to use the Self Clean cycle.
