Cooktop
The control knobs can be set to anywhere between Hi and Lo. Push in and turn to setting.
REMEMBER: When range is in use, the entire cooktop area may become hot.
Ceramic Glass
The surface cooking area will glow red when an element is ON. Some parts of the surface cooking area may not glow red when an element is ON. This is normal operation. It will also randomly cycle off and back on again, even while on Hi, to keep the cooktop from extreme temperatures.
It is normal for the surface of light-colored ceramic glass to appear to change color when surface cooking areas are hot. As the glass cools, it will return to its original color.
Clean the cooktop after each use to help avoid scratches, pitting, abrasions and to condition the glass surface. Ceramic glass cooktop cleaner and a cooktop scraper are also recommended for stubborn soils. Do not use abrasive cleaners, cleaning pads, or harsh chemicals for cleaning. The Cooktop Care Kit contains all of the items needed to clean and condition your ceramic glass cooktop. Refer to the “Range Care” section for additional information.
IMPORTANT: To avoid permanent damage to the cooktop surface and to make soils easier to remove, clean the cooktop after each use to remove all soils.
Avoid storing jars or cans above the cooktop. Dropping a heavy or hard object onto the cooktop could crack the cooktop.
To avoid damage to the cooktop, do not leave a hot lid on the cooktop. As the cooktop cools, air can become trapped between the lid and the cooktop and the ceramic glass could break when the lid is removed.
For foods containing sugar in any form, clean up all spills and soils as soon as possible. Allow the cooktop to cool down slightly. Then, while wearing oven mitts, remove the spills using a scraper while the surface is still warm. If sugary spills are allowed to cool down, they can adhere to the cooktop and can cause pitting and permanent marks.
To avoid scratches, do not slide cookware or bakeware across the cooktop. Aluminum or copper bottoms and rough finishes on cookware or bakeware could leave scratches or marks on the cooktop.
Do not cook popcorn in prepackaged aluminum containers on the cooktop. They could leave aluminum marks that cannot be removed completely.
To avoid damage to the cooktop, do not allow objects that could melt, such as plastic or aluminum foil, to touch any part of the entire cooktop.
To avoid damage to the cooktop, do not use the cooktop as a cutting board.
Use cookware about the same size as the surface cooking area. Cookware should not extend more than ½" (1.3 cm) outside the area.
Use flat-bottomed cookware for best heat conduction and energy efficiency. Cookware with rounded, warped, ribbed, or dented bottoms could cause uneven heating and poor cooking results.
Determine flatness by placing the straight edge of a ruler across the bottom of the cookware. While you rotate the ruler, no space or light should be visible between it and the cookware.
Cookware designed with slightly indented bottoms or small expansion channels can be used.
Make sure the bottoms of pots and pans are clean and dry before using them. Residue and water can leave deposits when heated.
To avoid damage to the cooktop, do not cook foods directly on the cooktop. e cooking area. Cookware should not extend more than /" (1.3 cm) outside the area.
Cooktop On Indicator Light
The Cooktop On indicator light is located on the console panel. When any control knob on the console panel is turned on, the Cooktop On indicator light will glow.
Hot Surface Indicator Light
On ceramic glass models, the Hot Surface indicator light is located on the console panel.
The Hot Surface indicator light will glow as long as any surface cooking area is too hot to touch, even after the surface cooking area is turned off.
Dual Zone Cooking Element
The Dual Zone cooking element offers flexibility depending on the size of the cookware. Single size can be used in the same way as a regular element. The dual size combines both the single and outer element and is recommended for larger-size cookware.
Rapid Boil Element (Right Front Element)
The Rapid Boil cooking element offers additional cooking flexibility. The Rapid Boil cooking element can be used to boil liquids faster. The lowest melt setting can be used to prepare sauces, brown or saute foods, and keep foods at a low temperature. Use cookware appropriate in size for the Rapid Boil cooking element.
Melt Element (Left Rear Element)
The Melt cooking element offers flexibility due to a wide range of settings between Hi and Melt. The Hi heat option can be used to boil small amounts of liquid quickly. To reduce the power setting, turn the knob clockwise. The Melt setting is designed for delicate foods that require low heat, such as when melting chocolate or holding sauces. Use cookware appropriate in size for the Melt cooking element.
Downdraft Ventilation System
The built-in downdraft ventilation system removes cooking vapors, odors, and smoke from foods prepared on the cooktop.
IMPORTANT: For optimal performance, operate the downdraft ventilation system with the filter properly installed.
To avoid the buildup of grease, the filter should be cleaned often. For more information on proper filter placement and cleaning, see “Downdraft Ventilation System” in the “General Cleaning” section.
Cookware
IMPORTANT: Do not leave empty cookware on a hot surface cooking area, element, or surface burner.
Ideal cookware should have a flat bottom, straight sides, and a well-fitting lid, and the material should be of medium-to-heavy thickness.
Rough finishes may scratch the cooktop. Aluminum and copper may be used as a core or base in cookware. However, when used as a base, they can leave permanent marks on the surfaces. Cookware material is a factor in how quickly and evenly heat is transferred which affects cooking results. A nonstick finish has the same characteristics as its base material. For example, aluminum cookware with a nonstick finish will take on the properties of aluminum.
Cookware with nonstick surfaces should not be used under the broiler.
Check for flatness by placing the straight edge of a ruler across the bottom of the cookware. While you rotate the ruler, no space or light should be visible between it and the cookware.
Use the following chart as a guide for cookware material characteristics.
Use flat-bottomed cookware for best cooking results and energy efficiency. The cookware should be about the same size as the cooking area outlined on the cooktop. Cookware should not extend more than ½" (1.3 cm) outside the area.
Home Canning
Canning can be performed on a glass smoothtop cooking surface or traditional coil element cooktop. When canning for long periods, alternate the use of surface cooking areas or elements between batches. This allows time for the most-recently used areas to cool.
Center the canner on the largest surface cooking area or element. On electric cooktops, canners should not extend more than /" (1.3 cm) beyond the surface cooking area or element.
Do not place canner on 2 surface cooking areas or elements at the same time.
On ceramic glass models, use only flat-bottomed canners to avoid damage to the cooktop and elements.
For more information, contact your local agricultural extension office or refer to published home canning guides. Companies that manufacture home canning products can also offer assistance.
Oven
Odors and smoke are normal when the oven is used the first few times or when it is heavily soiled.
IMPORTANT: The health of some birds is extremely sensitive to the fumes given off by the oven. Exposure to the fumes may result in death to certain birds. Always move birds to another closed and well-ventilated room.
Aluminum Foil
IMPORTANT: To avoid permanent damage to the oven bottom finish, do not line the oven bottom with any type of foil or liner.
For best cooking results, do not cover entire oven rack with foil because air must be able to move freely.
Positioning Racks and Bakeware
IMPORTANT: To avoid permanent damage to the porcelain finish, do not place food or bakeware directly on the oven door or bottom.
Bakeware
To cook food evenly, hot air must be able to circulate. Allow 2" (5 cm) of space around bakeware and oven walls. Make sure that no bakeware piece is directly over another.
Racks
Position racks before turning on the oven.
Do not position racks with bakeware on them.
Make sure racks are level.
To position a rack, pull it out to the stop position, raise the front edge, and then lift out. Use the following illustration and charts as guides.
The oven has 7 positions for a flat rack as shown in the previous illustration and the following table.
For hamburger patties to have a well-seared exterior and a rare interior, use a flat rack in rack position 7. Side 1 should cook for approximately 2% to 3% minutes. Side 2 should cook for approximately 4 to 5 minutes. Expect a moderate degree of smoke when broiling.
If your model has a Max Capacity Oven Rack, the recessed ends must be placed in the rack position above the desired position of the food. See the following illustration.
IMPORTANT: These rack positions are for flat racks. If a Max Capacity Oven Rack is used, the rack position must be adjusted as shown in the previous figure.
Multiple Rack Cooking
2-rack (non-convection): Use rack positions 2 and 5 or 3 and 6.
2-rack (convection): Use rack positions 2 and 5 or 3 and 6.
3-rack (convection): Use rack positions 2 and 7 and a Max Capacity Oven Rack in rack position 5.
Baking Cookies and Layer Cakes on 2 Racks
Baking Layer Cakes
For best results when baking cakes on 2 racks, use the Bake function, a flat rack in rack position 3, and a roll-out rack in rack position 5. Place the cakes on the racks as shown. Keep at least 3" (7.6 cm) of space between the front of the racks and the front cakes.
Baking Cookies
For best results when baking cookies on 2 racks, use the Convection Bake function, a flat rack in rack position 3, and a roll-out rack in rack position 5.
Roll-Out Rack
The roll-out rack allows easy access to position and remove food in the oven. It is not recommended to use the roll-out rack in the top rack, position 7, or the bottom rack, position 1.
Open Position
Closed and Engaged Position
To Insert Roll-Out Rack
Angle the front of the rack assembly up, and then insert the rack frame into the “V” cutout in the rack guides of the oven cavity.
Keep rack assembly lifted up at an angle, and then push in to bypass the lower “V” cutout.
Lower the front of the rack assembly, and then gently slide rack assembly into oven, bypassing the “V” cutouts. Push the rack assembly into the oven until it stops at the ladder in the back of the oven.
Reach through the rack to hold the sliding rack and the front crossbar. Lift the front of the rack assembly, and then push the rack assembly to the back of the oven. Lower the front of the rack assembly so the ladder hook engages with the ladder on both sides of the oven.
To Remove Roll-Out Rack
Push the sliding rack in completely so that it is in the closed and engaged position.
Reach through the rack to hold the sliding rack and the front crossbar. Lift the front of the rack assembly to disengage the ladder hook from the ladders at the rear of the oven, and then pull the rack assembly forward.
Using 2 hands, gently pull the sliding rack and the rack frame at the same time to the “V” cutout. Angle the rack so that the front is higher than the back, and then gently pull rack past “V” cutout and then out of the oven.
To avoid damage to the sliding rack, do not place more than 25 lbs (11.4 kg) on the rack.
Do not clean the roll-out rack in a dishwasher. It may remove the rack’s lubricant and affect its ability to slide.
See the “General Cleaning” section for more information.
Oven Vent
The oven vent releases hot air and moisture from the oven and should not be blocked or covered. Blocking or covering the vent will cause poor air circulation, affecting cooking and cleaning results. Do not set plastics, paper, or other items that could melt or burn near the oven vent.
Sabbath Mode
The Sabbath mode sets the oven to remain on in a Bake setting until turned off. When the Sabbath mode is set, only the Bake cycle will operate. All other cooking and cleaning cycles are disabled. No tones will sound and the displays will not indicate temperature changes. When the oven door is opened or closed, the oven light will not turn on or off and the heating elements will not turn on or off immediately
To Enable Sabbath Mode Capability (One Time Only):
Press OPTIONS/CLOCK until “SABBATH” is displayed. “OFF. Press (1) for On” will scroll in the display.
Press the “1” keypad. “ON. Press (1) for Off” will scroll in the display. Sabbath mode can be activated for baking.
Press START or CANCEL to exit and display the time of day.
NOTE: To disable the Sabbath mode, repeat steps 1 through 3 to change the status from “SABBATH ON” to “SABBATH OFF.”

To Deactivate Sabbath Mode:
Press OPTIONS/CLOCK and then press “7” to return to regular baking, or press CANCEL to turn off the range.
NOTE: No tones will sound while deactivating Sabbath mode.
Preheating
When beginning a Bake, Convect Bake, or Convect Roast cycle, the oven will begin preheating after Start is pressed. The oven will take approximately 12 to 15 minutes to reach 350°F (177°C) with all of the oven racks provided with your oven inside the oven cavity. Higher temperatures will take longer to preheat. The preheat cycle rapidly increases the oven temperature. The actual oven temperature will go above your set temperature to offset the heat lost when your oven door is opened to insert food. This ensures that when you place your food in the oven, the oven will begin at the proper temperature. Insert your food when the Preheat tone sounds. Do not open the door during preheat before the tone sounds.
Oven Temperature
While in use, the oven elements will cycle on and off as needed to maintain a consistent temperature, but they may run slightly hot or cool at any point in time due to this cycling. Opening the oven door while in use will release the hot air and cool the oven which could impact the cooking time and performance. It is recommended to use the oven light to monitor cooking progress.
NOTE: On models with convection, the convection fan may run in the non-convection Bake mode to improve oven performance.
Temperature Management System
The Temperature Management System electronically regulates the oven heat levels during preheat and Bake to maintain a precise temperature range for optimal cooking results. The bake and broil elements or burners cycle on and off in intervals. On convection range models, the fan will run while preheating and may be cycled on and off for short intervals during Bake to provide the best results. This feature is automatically activated when the oven is in use.
Before baking and roasting, position racks according to the “Positioning Racks and Bakeware” section. When roasting, it is not necessary to wait for the oven preheat cycle to end before putting food in unless it is recommended in the recipe.
Broiling
When broiling, preheat the oven for 2 minutes before putting food in unless recommended otherwise in the recipe. Position food on grid in a broiler pan, and then place it in the center of the oven rack.
IMPORTANT: Close the door to ensure proper broiling temperature.
Changing the temperature when broiling allows more precise control when cooking. The lower the broil setting is, the slower the cooking. Thicker cuts and unevenly shaped pieces of meat, fish, and poultry may cook better at lower broil settings. Use rack 6 or 7 for broiling. Refer to the “Positioning Racks and Bakeware” section for more information.
On lower settings, the broil element will cycle on and off to maintain the proper temperature.
For best results, use a broiler pan and grid. It is designed to drain juices and help avoid spatter and smoke.
If you would like to purchase a broiler pan, one may be ordered. See the “Accessories” section.
Convection Cooking
In a convection oven, the fan-circulated hot air continually distributes heat more evenly than the natural movement of air in a standard thermal oven. This movement of hot air helps maintain a consistent temperature throughout the oven, cooking foods more evenly, crisping surfaces while sealing in moisture, and yielding crustier breads.
During convection baking or roasting, the bake, broil, and convection elements cycle on and off in intervals while the fan circulates the hot air. During convection broiling, the broil and convection elements cycle on and off.
If the oven door is opened during convection cooking, the fan will turn off immediately. It will come back on when the oven door is closed.
With convection cooking, most foods can be cooked at a lower temperature and/or a shorter cooking time than in a standard thermal oven. When using Manual Convect modes, reduce the time and temperature when setting the oven. Use the following chart as a guide.
Convection Mode
AquaLift® Technology is an innovative cleaning solution that utilizes heat and water to release baked-on spills from the oven in less than 1 hour. This new cleaning technology is a low-heat, odorfree alternative to traditional self-cleaning options. Allow the oven to cool to room temperature before using the Clean cycle. If your oven cavity is above 200°F (93°C), “Oven Cooling” will appear in the display and the Clean cycle will not be activated until the oven cavity cools down.
To Clean:
Remove all racks and accessories from the oven cavity and wipe excess soil. Use a plastic scraper to remove easily removed soils.
Pour 2 cups (16 oz [500 mL]) of distilled or filtered water onto the bottom of the empty oven and close the oven door. IMPORTANT: Do not use chemicals or other additives with the water. Do not open the oven door during the Clean cycle. The water on the oven bottom is hot.
Press AQUALIFT SELF CLEAN and then START on the oven control panel.
Allow 40 minutes for cleaning and cooldown. A beep will sound when the Clean cycle is complete.
Press CANCEL at the end of the cycle. Cancel may be pressed at any time to stop the Clean cycle.
Remove the residual water and loosened soils with a sponge or cloth immediately after the Clean cycle is complete. Much of the initial 2 cups (16 oz [500 mL]) of water will remain in the oven after the cycle has completed. If additional soils remain, leave a small amount of water in the oven bottom to assist with the cleaning.
If any soils remain, remove them with a non-scratch scrubbing sponge or plastic scraper. Additional Clean cycles may be run to help remove the stubborn soils.
IMPORTANT: Do not use oven cleaners. The use of chemicals, including commercial oven cleaners or metal scouring pads, may cause permanent damage to the porcelain surface of the oven interior.
NOTES:
The range should be level to ensure that the entire surface of the bottom of the oven cavity is covered by water at the beginning of the Clean cycle.
For best results, use distilled or filtered water. Tap water may leave mineral deposits on the oven bottom.
Before removing the residual water and loosened soils at the end of the Clean cycle, insert a cloth or paper towel between the lower edge of the oven door and the front frame to keep water from spilling onto the front of the range and the floor.
Soil baked on through several cooking cycles will be more difficult to remove with the Clean cycle.
Nonabrasive scrub sponges or eraser-style cleaning pads (without cleaners) can be effective for cleaning the oven cavity walls, oven door, and oven bottom for difficult soils. For best results, moisten the pads and sponges before use.
Run an additional Clean cycle for stubborn soils. affresh® Kitchen Appliance Cleaner and affresh® Cooktop Cleaner may be used to clean the oven bottom, walls, and door when the oven has finished the cycle and returned to room temperature. If affresh® Cooktop Cleaner is used, it is recommended to wipe out the cavity with distilled water as well. Refer to the “Accessories” section for information on ordering.
Additional AquaLift® Technology Cleaning Kits may be obtained by ordering Part Number W10423113RP See the “Accessories” section for more information.
