Range Features

Radiant Elements

The radiant element uses a wire ribbon located under the glass ceramic surface to provide the heat for cooking. The radiant element will cycle on and off by design (see Temperature Limiter).

Single Element

The single element consists of only one radiant element in the heating area. The unit temperature can be adjusted from Hi to Lo to provide the desired cooking performance.

Double Element (some models) The dual element consists of two (a small and a large) radiant element within the same heating area. Either the small element, or both elements may be selected for use.

Triple Element (some models)

The triple element consists of three (small, medium and large) radiant ribbon elements within the same heating area. Either the small element, the small and medium element or all three elements may be selected for use, in order to better match the size of cookware.

Power Element (some models)

This element is used for faster time to boil and low simmer, all in one element. There are two elements that are the full size of the cooking zone. Warming Zone The warming element consists of one radiant element. The temperature is preset to the warming temperature set by the oven control panel.

Retained Heat

The glass cooking surface retains heat and stays hot after the element(s) have been turned off. The retained heat may be used to hold foods at serving temperatures for a short time. If a hot surface light is on, use caution when working or cleaning around the cooktop as the cooktop is still hot.

Temperature Limiter

Each radiant heating element has its own sensor to protect the glass cooking surface from extreme high temperatures. The limiters will operate automatically by cycling the element off regardless of the cook setting.

Although cycling is normal, any one of the following conditions can activate the limiter and cause it to cycle on and off more than usual:

• The base of the pan is not making full contact with the heating surface (due to a warped or uneven base).

• The pan is too small for the element.

• The pan has boiled dry.

• The material or shape of the pan is slow to transfer the heat.

Hot Surface Indicator

The cooktop displays a hot indicator light to show when the cooking surface is too hot to touch. If a hot surface light is on, use caution when working or cleaning around the cooktop as the cooktop is still hot.

Oven Features

Cooling Fan

The cooling fan runs during all cooking modes. The fan can be heard when it is running, and warm air may be felt as it is released from the oven vent. The fan may also run after the oven is off.

Convection Fan

The convection fan operates during any convection mode. When the oven is operating in the convection mode, the fan will turn off automatically when the door is opened. The convection fan does run during Self Clean, although not at the beginning of the mode.

Note: On some models, the convection fan also runs during preheat for the bake mode.

Oven Bottom

The oven bottom conceals the lower heating element. As a result the element is protected from damage and spills. Note: Do not place food directly on the oven bottom.

Oven Vent

The oven vent is located at the top back of the range. Warm air may be released from the vent before, during and after cooking. It is normal to see steam escaping from the vent and condensation may collect in this area. This area may be hot when the oven is in use. Do not block the vent as it is important for air circulation

Automatic

Shutoff The oven will automatically shut off after 24 hours.

Self-Cleaning

The oven features a self-cleaning function that eliminates the manual labor involved with cleaning your oven.

Indicators and Other Features

Default Settings - The cooking modes automatically select the default temperature. These can be changed when a different one is needed.

E Number Codes -These codes display when there is a problem with the range.

Standby Mode Standby mode means that the oven has power but no cooking mode or timer is running.

Accessories

Inserting Racks

CAUTION

To avoid burns, place oven racks in desired positions before turning oven on. Always use oven mitts when the oven is warm. If a rack must be moved while the oven is hot, do not let oven mitts contact hot heating elements.

Use caution when removing an oven rack from the lowest rack position to avoid contact with the hot oven door.

To avoid possible injury or damage to the appliance, ensure racks are installed exactly per installation instructions and not backwards or upside down.

Flat Rack

The rack is designed with a stop so it will stop before coming completely out of the oven and not tilt. To insert the flat rack into the oven:

1. Grasp rack firmly on both sides.

2. Insert rack (see picture).

3. Tilt rack up (A) to allow the upwardly sloped rear of the rack to slide under the stop molded into the front portion of the rack guide above.

4. When the back of the rack is past this stop, lower the front of the rack to a horizontal position (B) and push it the rest of the way in. The rack should be straight and flat, not crooked.

To remove the flat rack from the oven:

1. Grasp rack firmly on both sides and pull rack toward you.

2. When the stop is reached, tilt rack up so that the upwardly sloped back of the rack can pass

Telescopic Rack (some models)

To insert the telescopic rack into the oven:

1. Slide the rack in evenly until the rear of the rack is about 2 inches from the back of the oven.

2. Tilt the front of the rack up about 3/4’s of an inch (A) and finish pushing the rack all the way back (B)

Note: Avoid striking the oven light cover glass when pushing the rack into position.

3. The back of the telescopic rack drops into place.

4. Pull the rack forward to engage the bottom of the rack onto the rear of the rack position guide.

5. Lower the front of the rack to finish seating it on the rack guide. The rack should feel stable when properly seated.

6. Slide the movable part of the telescopic rack in and out a few times to make sure it is able to move freely and that the non-moving part of the telescopic rack is securely anchored.

To remove the telescopic rack from the oven:

1. Lift the front of the telescopic rack assembly about 1/2 inch and push the rack to the rear about 3/4 inch. This allows the rack to disengage from the rack position guide.

2. Lift the rear of the telescopic rack assembly so it clears the rack position guide and gently pull the rack from the oven.

Note: Take care to avoid pulling the rack unevenly which will cause it to bind during removal, catching on the oven walls.

Getting the Most Out of Your Cooktop

Cooktop Cooking Guide

Boiling Water

Time to boil can vary greatly depending on environmental conditions. Try the following tips to decrease boil time:

• Use a lid.

• Use a pan that is appropriately sized for the amount of water and the size of the element.

• Select a pan with a flat base (See “Cookware Selection Guide” in the next column for details).

• Choose a medium-weight pan (rather than a heavyweight one).

• Make sure that the pan is positioned so that the entire base is in contact with the element.

• Start with water that is already warm.

• Boil the smallest amount of water necessary. Smaller volumes will boil faster than larger volumes.

Recommended Settings

Use this chart as a guide for heat settings. A range of heat settings are listed because the actual setting depends on:

• type and quality of pan (See “Selecting Cookware”),

• type, quantity and temperature of the food,

• element used and

• the cook’s preference.

The Heat Settings recommended are based on a 240 volt power source. If your cooktop is connected to 208 volts, the same heat settings apply but foods may take a little longer to finish cooking.

Table 1: Cooking Guide

Cookware Selection Guide

Cookware Characteristics

Pan selection directly affects cooking speed and uniformity. For best results select pans with flat bases. When a pan is hot, the base (pan bottom) should rest evenly on the surface without wobbling (rocking). Flat, medium-to-heavyweight pans are best.

To Test the Flatness of Your Pans

Turn the pan upside down on the countertop and place a ruler flat against the bottom of the pan. The bottom of the pan and the straight edge of the ruler should be flush against each other.

Another simple test to determine even heat distribution across the cookware bottom is to place 1” (25.4 mm) of water in the pan. Bring the water to a boil and observe the location of the bubbles as the water starts to boil. Good, flat cookware will have an even distribution of bubbles over the bottom surface area.

Matching Diameters – The base of the pan should cover or match the diameter of the element being used. Pans may overhang the element area by 1" (25.4 mm) all around.

Tight Fitting Lids – A lid shortens cooking/boiling time by holding heat inside the pot.

Cookware Tips

• Use of pots and pans with rounded (either concave or convex) warped or dented bottoms should be avoided.

• Make sure the bottom of the pot or pan being used is clean and dry.

• Use pots and pans with thick, smooth metal bottoms.

• Do not slide metal pots across the cooktop. Pans may leave marks which need to be removed immediately. See Care and Cleaning Section.

• Do not use glass pans as they may scratch the surface.

Specialty Pans

Specialty pans such as griddles, roasters, pressure cookers, woks, water bath canners and pressure canners must have the same features as described above. Use only a flat-bottomed wok. Never place a support ring, such as a wok ring or trivet, on the cooking surface.

Getting the Most Out of Your Oven

Pan Placement

Baking results are better if pans are placed in the center of the oven. If baking more than one pan on a rack, allow at least 1" to 1 ½" of air space around the pan. When baking four cake layers at the same time, stagger pans on two racks so that one pan is not directly above the other.

Rack Position

Rack positions are numbered from 1 to 6, from bottom to top. Consult the food cooking charts at the back of this manual for recommended rack positions.

The rail at the top of the oven is used as the guide for the top rack (position 6). Use rack positions 1 through 6 only. DO NOT attempt to use the top guide to support an oven rack.

Aluminum Foil

Do not use aluminum foil or protective liners to line any part of the appliance, especially the oven bottom. Installing these liners may result in risk of electric shock or fire.

Preheating the Oven

• Place oven racks in desired position before heating the oven.

• Preheat the oven when using the Bake, Convection Bake, Convection Multi Rack, Pizza, Broil, Convection Broil, and Warm modes.

• Preheat is not used for Roast, Convection Roast and Proof modes.

• Allow oven to preheat while preparing recipe ingredients or food items.

• Setting a higher temperature does not shorten preheat time.

• Once oven is preheated, place food in the oven as quickly as possible to minimize the loss of heat and reduction of oven temperature.

• Use Fast Preheat to speed up preheating time.

Preheat Reminders

Your oven has one of the fastest preheat times in the market using a concealed bake element. The lower element is hidden under the oven bottom. It is normal that the preheat time is different than your previous oven that had an exposed element on the bottom.

• Cleaning the oven is easier because there is no cleaning around a coil element showing on the bottom of the oven. The hidden lower element is protected from food soils and spills. Wiping up excess spills is easy.

• Preheating is not necessary for meats, poultry, casseroles and some frozen foods.

• Preheat time will be longer when the electrical supply to your house is less than 240 volts.

• Increasing the oven temperature will require a longer preheat time. For example, the preheat time for 425° F is longer than the preheat time for 350° F.

When broiling, preheat the oven 3-4 minutes. Do not preheat for more than 5 minutes.

Baking Pans and Dishes

• Glass baking dishes absorb heat. Reduce oven temperature 25° F when baking using glass dishes.

• Preheat the oven before adding glass baking dishes.

• Use pans that provide the desired browning. For tender, light, golden-brown crusts, use light, anodized or shiny metal bakeware.

• Dark, rough or dull pans (nonstick or anodized) will absorb heat and result in a browner, crisper crust. Some manufacturers recommend reducing the temperature 25° F when using this type of pan. Follow manufacturers' recommendations.

• Insulated cookie sheets or bakeware will increase the length of cooking time.

• Do not set any heavy object on the open oven door.

• Do not keep empty pans or pizza stones in the oven during cooking as this could change the cooking performance. Store pans outside the oven.

Opening the Oven Door

• Open and close the appliance door only by holding the door handle. To avoid risk of burns, do not touch any other parts of the door.

High Altitude Baking

• When cooking at high altitudes, recipes and cooking times will vary.

• For accurate information, write the Extension Service, Colorado State University, Fort Collins, Colorado 80521. There may be a cost for the guides. Specify which high altitude food preparation guide you prefer: general information, cakes, cookies, breads, etc.

Condensation

• It is normal for a certain amount of moisture to evaporate from the food during any cooking process. The amount depends on the moisture content of the food. The moisture may condense on any surface cooler than the inside of the oven, such as the control panel.

Getting the Most Out of Your Warming Drawer

• Regular, daily care using the glass ceramic cooktop cleaner will protect the surface and make it easier to remove food soil and water spots.

• The glass ceramic cooking surface is a durable material resistant to impact but not unbreakable if a pan or other object is dropped on it.

• Avoid placing a wok support ring, trivet or other metal stand on the glass surface.

Warming Drawer Maintenance

Removing Drawer from Housing

1. Remove the drawer from the drawer housing.

• Pull drawer to fully open position.
• Press down right drawer release lever.
• Lift up left drawer release lever.
• Firmly pull the drawer straight out.
• Retract cabinet rails while drawer is removed.

2. Grasp both sides of the drawer and pulling straight and level, carefully remove the drawer housing. This step may require light to moderate force to completely remove drawer.

3. Install or service (clean) housing with drawer removed.

Installing Drawer to Housing

The slides mounted to each side of the housing wall have two moving components, an inner rail and a ball bearing carrier which need to be in the proper orientation for accurate installation and alignment. There is also a visible locking mechanism located at the rear of each slide.

Note: The housing of your warming drawer should match the image below identically before starting your installation. The ball bearing carrier should be locked in to the inner rail’s black plastic rail tip at the front of the inner rail.

1. With the drawer removed, set the slide inner rail to the drawer locked position by pushing the slide inner rail toward the rear of the housing until it locks in place.

Note: A moderate force pushing on the black plastic ball carrier locking mechanism is required to set the slide to the drawer locked position. The drawer is locked when it remains in place and does not spring back to the open position.

2. Position the drawer assembly in front of the housing assembly and align the rail (plastic rail tip) to the slide ball carrier assembly. Keeping the drawer assembly level and square to the housing, gently insert the drawer to the housing assembly.

3. Continue to insert the drawer keeping the drawer level and square to the housing until a slight increase in resistance is felt at the approximate position shown below.

4. Test the operation of the PTO drawer by pushing on the center lower portion of the drawer front (optimum location for function).

Note: It should be noted the recommended and optimum location for opening the drawer is the lower center front. The drawer will operate with an opening force applied to any location on the drawer front, however a slight increase in opening force may be required.
