INSTALLATION

Before installing the Cooker
Make sure that a qualified installer installs and grounds your stove according to installation instructions. Any adjustment or service may be completed only by service technicians qualified by LG.

Preparation for installation

Necessary tools

Necessary tools

• 9.5 mm (3/8″) manual shut-off valve
• Pipe gasket seal that resists the action of natural and LP gases
• 9.5 mm (3/8″ NPT) to (3/8″) Bell Coupler-Nipple
• Copper pipe with 9.5 mm (3/8″) bell nut
• A copper pipe with a 9.5 mm (3/8″) long bell nut necessary to reach the gas
• 9.5 mm (3/8″ NPT) Coupler-Nipple
• Liquid leak detector or soapy water

Selecting proper location
Do not locate your cooker where it may be subject to strong drafts. Any openings in the floor or wall behind the cooker should be sealed. Make sure the openings around the base of the cooker that supply fresh air for combustion and ventilation are not blocked by carpeting or woodwork. Your cooker, like many other household units, is heavy and cannot be installed on soft floor coverings such as cushioned vinyl or carpeting.

This cooker may not be installed with a ventilation system sending air downwards, directed to the cooker. This kind of ventilation system may cause ignition and combusting problems for the appliance, which may cause bodily injury and malfunction. When the floor covering ends at the front of the cooker, the area that the cooker will be installed on should be raised with plywood to the same level or higher than the floor covering.

This will allow the cooker to be moved for cleaning and servicing, as well as proper airflow to the cooker also, make sure the floor covering can resist 194°F (90°C). Make sure the wall coverings around your cooker can resist the heat generated (up to 203°F/95°C) by the cooker. See the Installation Safety Instructions included in this manual.

DIMENSIONS AND CLEARANCES
Provide proper clearances between the cooker and adjacent combustible surfaces. These dimensions must be met for the safe use of your cooker. The location of the electrical outlet and pipe opening (see Gas pipe and electrical outlet locations) may be adjusted to meet specific requirements.

Installation clearances

Dimensions

Connecting the Cooker to the gas outlet

1. Make sure that your gas installation has a pressure gas regulator, if not, it is important to install one in the main line.
2. After the gas regulator, connect a 9.5 mm (3/8”) diameter copper pipe with 9.5 mm (3/8”) bell nuts on both ends.
3. Install a manual shut-off valve after the copper pipe, in a place that has easy access.
4. Proceed to connect a 3/8” flexible copper pipe with 3/8” bell connectors in both ends and make one to three 30 cm diameter loops approximately as seen in the illustration to connect the cooker.
5. Place the appliance in the place where it will be finally installed and connect the flexible pipe coming from the shut-off valve.
6. Connect a female 9.5 mm (3/8” NPT) Coupler- Nipple side at the cooker gas supply outlet and a female 9.5 mm (3/8” NPT) bell connector to the flexible pipe.

Electrical requirements
220-240 V CA and 50/60 Hz properly grounded dedicated circuit protected by a 15 A circuit breaker or slow blow fuse. If an external electric source is used,  when installing the appliance a properly grounded connection must exist to comply with the local codes or, if no such codes exist, then according to the National Electrical Code.

Grounding
IMPORTANT:
FOR PERSONAL SAFETY, THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE PROPERLY GROUNDED. The customer should have the wall receptacle and circuit checked by a qualified electrician to make sure the receptacle is properly grounded.

Electric ignition
Push the knob when igniting surface burners and make sure they have ignited. You will hear a clicking sound indicating the proper operation of the spark module. Once the air has been purged from the supply lines, the burner should ignite within 4 seconds. After the burner ignites, turn the knob to its original position. Try each burner consecutively until all burners have been checked.

In the event of the burner flames being accidentally extinguished, turn off the burner control and do not attempt to re-ignite the burner for at least 1 min. The device shall not be operated for more than 15 seconds. If after 15 seconds the burner has not lit, stop operating the device open the compartment door, and/or wait at least a minute before attempting a further ignition of the burner.

Manual Defrosting
For the menu described below, you do not need to preheat the oven before cooking.

Control Panel
To prevent activating the control panel during cleaning, unplug the cooker. Clean up splatters with a damp cloth using a glass cleaner. Remove heavier soil with warm soapy water. Do not use abrasives of any kind.

Front panel and knobs
It is better to clean the front panel every time you use the oven. For cleaning, use a damp cloth and a mild soap and water solution or a fifty-fifty solution of vinegar and water. For rinsing use clean water and polish with a soft cloth.

My new cooker is different from the one I had. Is there something wrong with the temperature adjustments?
No, your oven was tested and calibrated in the factory. During the first few times you use it, carefully follow your recipe times and temperatures. If you still think the new oven is too hot or too cold, you may adjust the temperature to fit your specific cooking needs.

Why does the time flash?
This means that the product was just plugged in, or that there was a power failure. To make the flashing go away, push any button and reset the clock if necessary.

Can I use aluminum foil to catch drippings in the oven cavity?
Never use aluminum foil to cover the bottom or sides of the oven or the warming drawer. The paper will melt and stick to the bottom surface of the oven and it won’t come off. Place a tray on a lower oven rack instead and use it to catch the drippings. (If the aluminum paper has already melted in the oven bottom, it won’t interfere with the oven performance).

Can I use aluminum foil on the racks?
Do not cover the racks with aluminum foil. Covering the racks completely with aluminum foil restricts the airflow, which translates into deficient cooking results. Place a tray covered with aluminum foil under fruit pies or other acid or sweet foods to avoid the spillages damaging the oven finish.

What should I do if the racks are sticky and they are hard to slide in and out of the oven?
In time, racks may become hard to slide. Apply a small amount of olive oil to the rack edges. This will act as a lubricant for better sliding.

What should I do to take off hard stains on the cooktop?
The cooktop must be cleaned every time you use it to avoid permanent stains. When you cook foods with a high sugar content, such as tomato sauce, we recommend cleaning the stain with a spatula while the cooktop is still warm. Use oven mitts when scraping to avoid burns. Check the maintenance section of this user’s manual to get further instructions.

Why are the function buttons not working?
Make sure the cooker is not in lock-out mode. Lock Out shall be displayed on the screen if Lock Out mode is activated. To deactivate it, press the CANCEL button and keep it pressed for a few seconds.

My cooker is still dirty after running the EasyClean™ cycle, what more can I do?
EasyClean™ cycle only helps loosen the slight soil from the cooker to help clean the oven by hand. It does not take off all soil after the cycle. It is possible that you need to scrub the cooker after the EasyClean™ cycle ends.

I tried scrubbing the oven after running the EasyClean™ cycle but it is still dirty. What can I do?
The EasyClean™ function has a better result when the soil is drenched and submerged in water before running the cycle and during manual cleaning. If the soil is not drenched in water enough, it may negatively affect the cleansing performance. Repeat the EasyClean™ process using enough water. Sugar stains and other greasy residues are particularly hard to clean. If any stubborn soil remains, use a scraper.

Soil on the oven walls won’t come off. How can I clean the oven walls?
The soil in the oven side and back walls of your cooker may be harder to drench in water. Try repeating the EasyClean™ process with ¼ cup (2 oz. or 60 ml) of the recommended product.

Does EasyClean™ get rid of all soil and stains completely?
It depends on the kind of soil. Sugar stains and some grease stains are particularly hard to clean. Besides, if the stains are not fully drenched in water, this may negatively affect the cleaning performance. If there are still a lot of stubborn or old stains, use a scraper.

What do I need to use EasyClean™?
A water sprayer with 1¼ cups (10 oz. or 300 ml) of water, a non-scratching sponge, and a towel. Do not use abrasive sponges such as heavy-duty steel wool sponges. A spray bottle filled with water, a scraper, a non-scratch scrubbing pad, and a towel. You should not use abrasive scrubbers such as heavy-duty scouring pads or steel wool.

Is it safe to pour water in the bottom vents of the oven during cleaning?
There is no problem if a little bit of water spills in the vents on the bottom of the oven (Gas Cooker). However, we recommend trying to avoid spilling too much water into the vents.
