• Do not heat unopened food containers—Build-up of
pressure may cause container to burst and result in
injury.
• Remove the oven doors from any unused range if it is
to be stored or discarded.
IMPORTANT—Do not attempt to operate the oven during
a power failure. If the power fails, always turn the ovens
off. If the ovens are not turns off and the power resumes, the
oven may begin to operate again. Food left unattended could
catch fire or spoil.
Electronic controllers can be damaged by
cold temperatures. When you use your appliance for the
first time, or if it has not been used for a long period of
time, make sure that it has been exposed to a temperature
above 0°C/32°F for at least 3 hours before connecting it
to the power supply.
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING YOUR
COOKTOP
• Know which knob controls each surface heating unit.
• Use proper pan size. This appliance is equipped with one
or more surface units of different sizes. Select utensils
having flat bottoms large enough to cover the surface unit.
The use of undersized utensils will expose a portion of the
surface heating to direct contact and may result in ignition
of clothing. Proper relationship of utensil to the surface unit
will also improve efficiency.
• Do Not Immerse or Soak Removable Heating
Elements— Heating elements should never be immersed
in water. Heating elements clean themselves during normal
operation.
• Make sure Drip Pans or Drip Bowls Are in Place—
Absence of these pans or bowls during cooking may subject
wiring or components underneath to damage.
• Utensil handles should be turned inward and not
extend over adjacent surface units—To reduce the risk
of burns, ignition of flammable materials, and spillage due
to unintentional contact with the utensil. The handle of the
utensil should be positioned so that it is turned inward, and
does not extend over adjacent surface units.
• Never leave surface units unattended at high heat
settings—Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers
that may ignite, or a pan that has boiled dry may melt.
• Protective liners—Do not use aluminum foil to line oven
bottom or any other part of the appliance. Only use
aluminum foil as recommended for baking if used as a
cover placed on the food. Any other use of protective liners
or aluminum foil may result in a risk of electric shock or fire
or short circuit.
• Glazed cooking utensils—Only certain types of glass,
glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed
utensils are suitable for rangetop service without breaking
due to the sudden change in temperature. Check the
manufacturer’s recommendations for rangetop use.
• Do not use decorative surface element covers. If an
element is accidentally turned on, the decorative cover will
become hot and possibly melt. Burns will occur if the hot
covers are touched. Damage may also be done to the
cooktop.
FOR GLASS COOKTOPS ONLY
• Do not clean or operate a broken cooktop—If cooktop
should break, cleaning solutions and spillovers may
penetrate the broken cooktop and create a risk of electric
shock. Contact a qualified technician immediately.
• Clean cooktop glass with caution—If a wet sponge or
cloth is used to wipe spills on a hot cooking area, be careful
to avoid a steam burn. Some cleaners can produce harmful
fumes if applied to a hot surface.
• Do not place hot cookware on cold cooktop glass. This
could cause glass to break.
• Avoid scratching the cooktop glass with sharp objects.
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING YOUR
OVEN
• Use care when opening oven door—Stand to the side of the
range when opening the door of a hot oven. Let hot air or steam
escape before you remove or replace food in the oven.
• Keep ovens vents unobstructed. Each vent has its own
vent located on the top, near each side and towards the
back of the cooktop. Touching the surfaces in this area
when the oven is operating may cause severe burns. Also,
do not place plastic or heat-sensitive items on or near an
oven vent. These items could melt or ignite.
• Placement of ovens racks. Always place oven racks in
desired location while ovens are cool. If rack must be
moved while oven is hot use extreme caution. Use potholders
and grasp the rack with both hands to reposition. Do not let
potholders contact the hot heating elements in the ovens.
Remove all utensils from the rack before moving.
• Do not use a broiler pan without its grid. Broiler pan and
its grid allow dripping fat to drain and be kept away from the
high heat of the broiler.
• Do not cover the broiler grid with aluminum foil. Exposed
fat and grease could ignite.
• Do not touch a hot light bulb with a damp cloth. Doing
so could cause the bulb to break. Disconnect the appliance
or turn off the power to the appliance before removing and
replacing light bulb.
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR CLEANING
YOUR RANGE
• Clean the range regularly to keep all parts free of
grease that could catch fire. Exhaust fan ventilation
hoods and grease filters should be kept clean. Do not allow
grease to accumulate on hood or filter. Greasy deposits in
the fan could catch fire. When you are flaming food under
the hood, turn the fan on. Refer to the hood manufacturer’s
instructions for cleaning.
Important Safety Instructions
5
• Kitchen cleaners and aerosols—Always follow the
manufacturer’s recommended directions for use. Be aware
that excess residue from cleaners and aerosols may
ignite causing damage and injury.
SELF CLEANING OVENS
• In the self-Cleaning cycle only clean the parts listed in
this Use and Care Guide. Before self cleaning the oven,
remove all utensils or foods from the oven.
• Do not use oven cleaners—No commercial oven cleaner
or ovens liner protective coating of any kind should be
used in or around any part of the oven.
• Do not clean door gasket—The door gasket is essential
for a good seal. Care should be taken not to rub, damage
or move the gasket.
• Remove oven racks. Oven racks color will change if left
in the oven during a self-cleaning cycle.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
The health of some birds is extremely sensitive
to the fumes given off during the self-cleaning cycle of any
range. Move birds to another well ventilated room.
IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE
The California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act
requires the Governor of California to publish a list of substances
known to the state to cause cancer, birth defects or other
reproductive harm, and requires businesses to warn customers of
potential exposure to such substances.
Surface cooking
Pans should have flat bottoms. Check
for flatness by rotating a ruler across the
bottom. There should be no gap between
the pan and ruler.
Note: Always use a utensil for its
intended purpose. Follow manufacturer's
instructions. Some utensils were not
made to be used in the oven or on the
cooktop.
For best result and energy conservation, choose cooking utensils that have these characteristics:
Do not use griddle over more than one burner because it could damage your cooktop. It can also result in
exposure to carbon monoxide levels above allowable current standards and be hazardous to your health.

Canning Tips & Information
1. Use tested recipes and follow instructions carefully. Check with the
manufacturer of glass jars for the latest canning information.
2. Use flat-bottomed canners only. Heat is spread more evenly when the bottom
surface is flat.
3. Center canner on the burner grate.
4. Start with hot water and a high heat setting to reduce the time it takes to
bring the water to a boil; then reduce the heat setting as low as possible to
maintain a constant boil.
5. It is best to can small amounts and light loads.
Prevent damage to cooktop:
1. Do not use water bath or pressure canners that extend more than one inch
beyond the edge of the burner grate.
2. Do not leave water bath or pressure canners on high heat for an extended
amount of time.
3. Alternate surface units between each batch to allow the units and surrounding
surfaces to cool down. Try to avoid canning on the same burner unit all day.
Safe canning requires that harmful micro-organisms are destroyed
and the jars are sealed completely. When canning in a water bath canner, a
gentle but steady boil must be maintained continuously for the required time.
Canning can generate
large amounts of steam. Use extreme cau-
tion to prevent burns. Always raise the lid
to vent steam away from you.
Specialty Pans & Trivets
Woks
with flat bottoms suitable for use
on your cooktop are available in most
cookshop or hardware stores.
DO NOT use two elements (if the
cooktop is not equipped with bridge el-
ement) to heat one large pan such as
a roaster or griddle, or allow cooking
utensils to boil dry. The bottom sur-
face of the pan in either of these situa-
tions could cause discoloring or crack-
ing of the glass range surface.
Wire trivets:
Do not use wire trivets.
Cookware bottoms must be in direct
contact with the surface elements.
DO NOT use a wok if it is equipped
with a metal ring. Because this ring
traps heat, the cooktop surface
could be damaged.
For glass smoothtop models, only
flat bottomed woks (without
support rings) may be used.
Surface cooking
* Specialty pans such as lobster pots, griddles and pressure cookers may be
used but must conform to the above recommended cookware requirements.

About the Ceramic Glass Cooktop
The ceramic cooktop has radiant surface elements located
below the surface of the glass. The design of the ceramic
cooktop outlines the area of the surface element underneath.
Make sure the diameter of the pan matches the diameter of the
element outline on the cooktop (See Figure 1).
Heat is transferred up through the surface of the cooktop to the
cookware. Only flat-bottom cookware should be used. The type
and size of cookware, the number of surface elements in use
and their settings, are all factors that will affect the amount of
heat that will spread to areas beyond the surface elements.
The areas surrounding the elements may become hot enough
to cause burns.
About the Radiant Surface Elements
The element temperature rises gradually and evenly. As the
temperature rises, the element will glow red. To maintain the
selected setting, the element will cycle on and off. The heating
element retains enough heat to provide a uniform and
consistent heat during the off cycle. For efficient cooking, turn
off the element several minutes before cooking is complete.
This will allow residual heat to complete the cooking process.
Locations of the Radiant Surface Elements and
Controls
Your range is equipped with radiant surface elements with
different wattage ratings. The ability to heat food quicker and in
larger volumes increases as the element wattage increases.
The radiant surface elements are located on the cooktop as
follows:
- One 6 inch radiant element at the right rear position;
-A dual 6 or 9 inch radiant element at the right front position;
- Two 7 inch radiant elements located at both the left front and
rear positions.
- Between left front and rear elements is a Bridge radiant
element. The BRIDGE radiant element is controlled using the
same knob that controls the left front radiant element position.
NOTE: Please read detailed instructions for ceramic
glass cooktop cleaning in the General Care &
Cleaning section and Before You Call checklist
section of this Use and Care Guide.
NOTE: Radiant elements have a limiter that allows the
element to cycle on and off, even at the HI setting.
This helps to prevent damage to the ceramic smooth
top. Cycling at the HI setting is normal and can occur if
the cookware is too small for the radiant element or if
the cookware bottom is not flat (Refer to page 12
under Selecting Surface Cooking Utensils).
NOTE: Due to the high intensity of heat generated by
the surface elements, the glass surface will turn green
when the element will be turned off. This phenomenon
is normal and the glass will come back to its original
white color after it has completely cooled down. (White
glass cooktops only).

Operating the Bridge Surface Radiant Element
The range is equipped with a “BRIDGE” surface element located at
the left front and middle (See Figure 6) positions. The Bridge can be
used when cooking with rectangular (like a griddle) or oval shaped
cookware. The element will maintain an even temperature setting
across both portions of the Bridge. If needed for normal
cookware, the Bridge element can work like a single element
without the Bridge (See Figure 3).
Bridge element operation symbols are located on the control
panel on each side of the Bridge element control knob.
These symbols indicate the direction to turn the control knob
when operating the Bridge element. The symbol in Figure 1
indicates that only the single portion of the Bridge element
will heat (Figure 3). The symbol in Figure 4 indicates that
both the single and Bridge portions of the element will heat
together (Figure 6). You may switch from either of these
settings at any time during cooking with the Bridge element.
To Operate the Bridge Surface Element
1. Place correctly sized cookware on the Bridge surface
element.
2. Push in and turn the control knob counterclockwise (See
Figures 2 and 3) to heat the portion of the Bridge
element for normal shaped cookware or clockwise (See
Figures 5 and 6) for larger or rectangular shaped
cookware.
3. Turn the knob to adjust the setting if needed. Start most cooking operations on a higher
setting and then turn to a lower setting to finish cooking. Each surface element provides
a constant amount of heat at each setting. A glowing red surface heating area
extending beyond the bottom edge of the cookware indicates the cookware is too
small. Please note that not all cookware will fit the Bridge element correctly.

The BRIDGE element may also be used in combination with the left rear single element. Because these elements have 2
different controls, one element can be used to cook while the other element may be used to keep food warm (See Figure
7). Note: See page 7, Figure 2 for recommended control settings.
Indicator Lights
Two different surface control lights will glow on your range: Surface Indicator Lights and Hot Surface Indicator Lights.
• The surface indicator lights, located on the control panel, glow when any surface unit is turned on. A quick glance at
the lights after cooking is an easy check to be sure all surface controls are turned off.
• The hot surface indicators lights, located under the glass cooktop, will come on as the surface cooking area heats up
and will continue to glow until the glass cooktop has cooled down to a moderate level. The lights may remain on even
though the controls are turned to OFF.

The purpose of the warmer zone is to keep hot cooked foods at serving tempera-
ture. Use the warmer zone to keep cooked foods hot such as: vegetables, gra-
vies, casseroles, soups, stews, breads, pastries and oven-safe dinner plates.
Always start with hot food. Do not heat cold food on the warmer zone.
All food placed on the warmer zone should be covered with a lid or aluminum foil.
When warming pastries or breads, the cover should have an opening to allow
moisture to escape. Do not use plastic wrap to cover food. Plastic may melt
onto the surface and be very difficult to clean.
Use only dishware, utensils and cookware recommended for oven and cooktop
use on the warmer zone.
Always use potholders or oven mitts when removing food from the
warmer zone as cookware and plates will be hot.
To Set the Warmer Zone Control
1. To set the control, push in and turn the knob. The temperatures are approxi-
mate, and are designated by HI, MED and LO. However, the control can be
set at any position between HI and LO for different levels of heating.
2. When done, turn the control to OFF. The warmer zone will remain warm until
the hot surface indicator light goes off.
Temperature Selection
Refer to the chart for recommended heating levels. If a particular food is not
listed, start with the medium level, and adjust as needed. Most foods can be kept
at serving temperatures by using the medium level.
Indicator Lights
The surface indicator light is located below the warmer zone control. It turns
on when the control is set, and stays on until the control is turned off. The hot
surface indicator light, located on the control panel, will come on when the
control is set and will continue to glow until the glass cooktop has cooled down to
a moderate level.
The warmer zone will not glow red when it is hot, but becomes hot
enough to cause burns. Avoid placing hands on or near the warmer zone until
the hot surface indicator light is off.

Before Setting Oven Controls
Oven Vent(s) and Racks
Ovens Vents Locations For Ceramic Glass Cooktops Models:
Each oven has its own vent located on the top, near each side and towards the
back of the cooktop. When an oven is on, warm air is released through the vent;
this ventilation is necessary for proper air circulation in the oven and good baking
results.
Ovens Vents Locations For Coil Elements Models:
The oven is vented through the center of the left rear element for the left oven
and the center of the right rear element for the right oven. When an oven is on,
warm air is released through the vent. This venting is necessary for proper air
circulation in the oven and good baking results.
Arranging Oven Racks
The smaller oven has one oven rack and the larger oven has two oven racks.
ALWAYS ARRANGE OVEN RACKS WHEN THE OVEN IS COOL (PRIOR TO
OPERATING THE OVEN).
Always use oven mitts when using the oven.
To remove an oven rack, pull the rack forward until it stops. Lift up front of rack
and slide out.
To replace an oven rack, fit the rack onto the guides on the oven
walls. Tilt the front of the rack upward and slide the rack back into place.
Air Circulation in the Oven
For best air circulation and baking results allow 2-4" (5-10 cm) around the

Broiling is a method of cooking tender cuts of meat by direct heat from the broil
element of the oven. Meats are placed on the broiling rack and the rack is placed
under the broiling element.
See the broiling instructions for main oven in the Setting Oven Controls section in
the Timer Guide.
See side oven step-by-step instructions in the Setting Side Oven Control section.
Preheating
Preheating is suggested when searing rare steaks (remove all utensils before
preheating; food will stick if placed on hot metal). To preheat, set the oven
control(s) to BROIL. Wait for the element to become red-hot, usually about 2
minutes. Preheating is not necessary when broiling meats well-done.
To Broil
Broil on one side until the food is browned; turn and cook on the other side;
season and serve. Always pull rack out to the stop position before turning or
removing food.
Determining Broiling Times
Broiling times vary; watch the food closely. Time not only depends on the distance
from the element, but on the thickness and age of meat, fat content and doneness
preferred. The first side usually requires a few minutes longer than the second.
Frozen meats also require additional time.
Broiling Tips (some models)
Broiler pan and its grid allow dripping grease to drain and be kept away from the
high heat of the broiler.
DO NOT use a pan without its grid. DO NOT cover the grid with foil. The
exposed grease could ignite.
Should an oven fire occur, close the oven door and turn off the oven.
If the fire continues, throw baking soda on the fire or use a fire extinguisher. DO NOT
put water or flour on the fire. Flour may be explosive.
Always pull oven rack out to the stop position before turning or removing food.
Broiler Clean-Up Tips (some models):
• To make cleaning easier, line bottom of the broiler pan with aluminum foil. DO NOT
cover the broiler grid with foil.
• To prevent grease from baking on, remove the broiler pan from the oven as soon
as cooking is completed. Use hot pads because the broiler pan is extremely hot.
Pour off grease. Soak the pan in HOT, soapy water.
• Clean the broiler pan as soon as possible after each use. If necessary, use soap-
filled steel wool pads. Heavy scouring may scratch the grid.

The convection option, available on some models, is an alternative to the conventional
oven cooking methods of baking/roasting.
Convection cooking is a method of cooking in which the heated air of the oven is circulated
by a fan at the rear of the oven cavity, providing better heat distribution. This fan is
covered by a baffle to circulate the air uniformly, providing even heat distribution for
faster and more even cooking, baking and browning. The heated air penetrates food
from every angle, sealing in natural moisture and flavors. The convection fan
automatically turns off when the oven door is opened and resumes when the
door is closed again. However, the heating element will stay on.
The oven can be programmed to bake in the convection mode at any temperature
from 170°F/80°C to 550°F/288°C. Preheating the oven for 10-12 minutes is
recommended when using convection but not necessary when roasting or cooking
casseroles.
CAUTION: In the convection mode, using cooking times from conventional cooking
recipes may cause food to be overcooked. For satisfactory results, use only tested
recipes with times adjusted for convection cooking. Obtaining and using a convection
oven cookbook is highly recommended.
Convection cooking uses a lower temperature and takes less time to achieve the
same results as conventional cooking. In convection mode, the actual temperature in
your oven automatically adjusts to be 25°F/12°C lower than the temperature displayed
on the oven control panel. Because of this automatic adjustment you can enter the
cooking temperature from your existing conventional cooking recipe, but do not set
the cooking time to be the same. Even at the lower cooking temperature, convection
cooking times will be as much as 30% less than conventional cooking times.
When programming cooking times for convection cooking, enter a time that is 20 to
30 percent less than called for in your conventional cooking recipe. After the cooking
cycle ends, decide if the food is done to satisfaction, slightly overdone or slightly
underdone (if underdone, cook a short time longer to satisfaction). Make a note of the
time and results, and with your next use of the recipe adjust cooking time accordingly.
When convection roasting, use a broiler pan and grid, and the roasting rack. Broiler
pan will catch grease spills and the grid will help prevent grease spatters. The roasting
rack will hold the meat.
1. Place oven rack on bottom or next to bottom rack position.
2. Place the grid in the broiler pan. The roasting rack fits on the grid allowing the
heated air to circulate under the food for even cooking and helps to increase
browning on the underside. Make sure the roasting rack is securely seated on the
grid in the broiler pan. DO NOT use broiler pan without the grid. DO NOT cover the
grid with aluminum foil.
To select convection cooking
mode, press CONV BAKE ROAST
button on control panel before
setting cooking temperature and
time.

To Bake
1. Arrange oven racks while the oven is still cool.
2. Turn the Temperature Control Knob to the desired oven temperature. When
the oven is first turned on, the oven indicator light below the Temperature
Control Knob will glow.
3. Preheat the oven for 10 to 12 minutes before baking. Preheating is not
necessary when roasting, cooking casseroles or broiling most foods. When
the desired temperature is reached, the oven indicator light will go out. The
light will then go on and off as the element cycles on and off to maintain the
desired temperature.
4. When cooking is finished, turn the Temperature Control Knob to OFF.
To Broil
1. Arrange oven rack while oven is still cool. For rare meats, position broiler pan
closer to the element (upper position). For well-done foods such as chicken,
lobster tails or thick cuts of meat, position the pan further from the element (to
a lower position).
2. Turn the Temperature Control Knob to BROIL. To sear rare steaks, allow the
element to become red-hot—about 2 minutes—before placing food in oven.
3. Place the grid on broiler pan, and then place the meat on the grid. DO NOT
use broiler pan without the grid or cover the grid with aluminum foil. The
exposed fat could ignite.
4. Place the pan on the oven rack. Close the oven door to the Broil Stop
position while broiling (door opened about 2 inches).
5. Broil on one side until food is browned; turn and cook on the other side. Season
and serve. Note: Always pull the rack out to the stop position before turning
or removing food.
6. When broiling is finished, turn the Temperature Control Knob to OFF.
Should an oven fire occur, close the oven door and turn off the
oven. If the fire continues, throw baking soda on the fire or use a fire extinguisher.
DO NOT put water or flour on the fire. Flour may be explosive.

Care & Cleaning
Oven Cleaning
Cleaning the Self-Clean Oven (Main oven)
Adhere to the following cleaning precautions:
- Allow the oven to cool before cleaning.
- Wear rubber gloves when cleaning any exterior parts of the oven manually.
During the self-clean cycle, the outside of the wall oven can become very hot to the touch. DO NOT leave
small children unattended near the appliance.
The health of some birds is extremely sensitive to the fumes given off during the self-cleaning cycle of any
range. Move birds to another well ventilated room.
Before cleaning any part of the oven, be sure the electronic oven control is turned off or else push CANCEL
pad. Wait until the oven is cool.
DO NOT use commercial oven cleaners or oven protective coatings in or around any art of the self-cleaning oven. DO NOT
clean the oven door gasket. The gasket on the oven door is essential for a good seal. Care should be taken not to rub, damage
or move the gasket. DO NOT use any cleaning materials on the gasket. Doing so could damage it. DO NOT use
aluminum foil to line the oven bottom. This may affect cooking or foil could melt and damage the oven surface.
A self-cleaning oven cleans itself with high temperatures (well above cooking temperatures) which eliminate soil completely
or reduce it to a fin powdered ash you can which away with damp cloth.

Preparing the Oven for Self-Cleaning
1. Remove all excess spillovers in the oven cavity before starting the self-clean-
ing cycle. To clean, use hot soapy water and a cloth. Large spillovers can
cause heavy smoke or fire when subjected to high temperatures. DO NOT
allow food spills with a high sugar or acid content (such as tomatoes,
sauerkraut, fruit juices or pie filling) to remain on the surface as they may
cause a dull spot even after cleaning.
2. Clean any soil from the oven frame and the door liner (see illustration). These
areas heat sufficiently during self-cleaning cycle to burn soil on. Clean with
soap and water.
3. Remove the broiler pan and insert, all utensils and any foil. These items do
not withstand high cleaning temperatures
4. Oven racks may be left in the oven or may be removed. If they go through the
clean cycle, their color will turn slightly dull. After the cycle is completed and
the oven has cooled, rub the sides of the racks with wax paper or a cloth
containing a small amount of baby oil or salad oil. This will make the racks
glide easier.
What to Expect During Cleaning
While the oven is in operation, the oven heats to temperatures much higher than those used in normal cooking. Sounds of
metal expansion and contraction are normal. Odor is also normal as the food soil is being removed. Smoke may appear
through the oven vent, located on the top of the control panel.
If heavy spillovers are not wiped up before cleaning, they may flame and cause more smoke and odor than usual. This is
normal and safe and should not cause alarm. If available, use an exhaust fan during the self-cleaning cycle.
NOTE: A smoke eliminator in the oven vent converts most of the soil into a colorless vapor.
Refer to the Electronic Oven Control Guide for oven settings.

Porcelain has a smooth finish and is a type of glass fused to metal. Oven clean-
ers can be used on all interior oven surfaces.
General Cleaning
Remove soils using hot, soapy water. Do not allow food spills with a high sugar
or acid content (such as milk, tomatoes, saukerkraut, fruit juices or pie filling) to
remain on the surface as they may cause a dull spot even after cleaning.
To Remove Heavy Soil
1. Allow a dish of ammonia to sit in the oven overnight or for several hours with
the oven door closed. Clean softened spots using hot, soapy water. Rinse
well with water and a clean cloth.
2. If soil remains, use a soap-filled scouring pad or a nonabrasive cleaner. If
necessary, use an oven cleaner following manufacturer's instructions. DO NOT
mix ammonia with other cleaners.
Adhere to the following precautions when using oven cleaners:
1. DO NOT spray on the electrical controls or switches because it could cause a
short circuit and result in sparking or fire.
2. DO NOT allow a film from the cleaner to build up on the temperature sensing
bulb located at the top left rear corner of the oven; it could cause the oven to
heat improperly. Carefully wipe the bulb clean after each oven cleaning, being
careful not to move the bulb. A change in its position could affect how the oven
bakes. Avoid bending the bulb and capillary tube.
3. DO NOT spray any cleaner on the oven door trim or gasket, handles or any
exterior surfaces of the range, wood or painted surfaces. The cleaner can
damage these surfaces.
To Clean the Oven Bottom
Clean using hot, soapy water, a mild abrasive cleanser, a soap-filled abrasive
pad or oven cleaner following oven cleaner manufacturer's instructions.
DO NOT line the oven walls, bottom, racks or any other part of the
appliance with aluminum foil. Doing so will destroy heat distribution, produce
poor baking results and cause permanent damage to the oven interior (alumi-
num foil will melt to the interior surface of the oven).
Porcelain Enamel Oven
Cleaning (Side Oven)
(If equipped)

Care & Cleaning
Models with Ceramic Glass Cooktop
Ceramic Glass Cooktop Cleaning & Maintenance
Consistent and proper cleaning is essential to maintaining your Ceramic glass cooktop
Prior to using your cooktop for the first time, apply the recommended Cleaning Creme to the ceramic surface. Clean and
buff with a non abrasive cloth or pad. This will make cleaning easier when soiled from cooking. The special cooktop
cleaning cream leaves a protective finish on the glass to help prevent scratches and abrasions.
Sliding aluminum or copper clad bottom pans on the cooktop can cause metal
markings on the cooktop surface. These marks should be removed immediately
after the cooktop has cooled using the cooktop cleaning cream. Metal marks can
become permanent if not removed prior to future use.
Cookware (cast iron, metal, ceramic or glass) with rough bottoms can mark or
scratch the cooktop surface. Do not slide anything metal or glass across the
cooktop. Do not use your cooktop as a cutting board or work surface in the kitchen.
Do not cook foods directly on the cooktop surface without a pan. Do not drop heavy
or hard objects on the glass cooktop, or they may crack it.
Before cleaning the cooktop, be sure the controls are turned to OFF and the cooktop is COOL.
DO NOT use a cooktop cleaner on a hot cooktop. The fumes can be hazardous to your health, and can
chemically damage the ceramic glass surface.
Cleaning Recommendations for the Ceramic Glass Cooktop
For light to moderate soil:
Apply a few drops of Cleaning Creme directly to the cooktop. Use a paper towel or a Multi-Purpose No Scratch Scrub
Sponge to clean the entire cooktop surface. Make sure the cooktop is cleaned thoroughly, leaving no residue. Do not use
the sponge you use to clean the cooktop for any other purpose.
For heavy, burned on soil:
First, clean the surface as described above. Then, if soils remain, carefully scrape soils with a metal razor blade scraper,
holding scraper at a 30 degree angle to the surface. Remove loosened soils with cooktop cleaning cream and buff
surface clean.
Damage to the ceramic glass cooktop may occur if you use any scrub
pad other than a Multi-Purpose No Scratch Scrub Sponge.
Plastic or foods with a high sugar content:
These types of soils need be removed immediately if spilled or melted onto the
ceramic cooktop surface. Permanent damage (such as pitting of the cooktop sur-
face) may occur if not removed immediately. After turning the surface elements
OFF, use a razor blade scraper or a metal spatula with a mitt and scrape the soil
from the hot surface (as illustrated). Allow the cooktop to cool, and use the same
method for heavy or burned on soils.
19
Care & Cleaning
Do not use the following on the ceramic glass cooktop:
• Do not use abrasive cleaners and scouring pads, such as metal and some
nylon pads. They may scratch the cooktop, making it more difficult to
clean.
• Do not use harsh cleaners, such as chlorine bleach, ammonia or oven
cleaners, as they may etch or discolor the cooktop.
• Do not use dirty sponges, cloths or paper towels, as they can leave soil
or lint on the cooktop which can burn and cause discoloration.
Special Caution for Aluminum Foil and Aluminum Cooking Utensils
• Aluminum foil
Use of aluminum foil will damage the cooktop. Do not use under any circumstances.
• Aluminum utensils
Since the melting point of aluminum is much lower than that of other metals, care must be taken when aluminum
pots or pans are used. Pans that boil dry may permanently damage cooktop by breaking, fusing to, or marking it.
Care and Cleaning of Stainless Steel (Stainless Steel models only)
Some models are equipped with stainless steel exterior parts. Special care and cleaning are required for maintaining
the appearance of stainless parts. Please refer to the table provided at the beginning of the General Care & Cleaning
section in this Use & Care Guide.

How to Clean
Use hot, soapy water and a cloth. Dry with a clean cloth.
Before cleaning the control panel,
turn all controls to OFF and remove the control knobs.
To remove, pull each knob straight off the shaft. Clean using hot, soapy water and a
dishcloth. Be sure to squeeze excess water from the cloth before wiping the panel; espe-
cially when wiping around the controls. Excess water in or around the controls may cause
damage to the appliance. To replace knobs after cleaning, line up the flat sides of both the
knob and the shaft; then push the knob into place.
Cleaners made especially for stainless steel as Stainless Steel Magic, or other similar
cleaners are recommended. Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions. Be sure to
rinse the cleaners as bluish stains may occur during heating and cannot be removed.
Remove racks. See "To remove and to replace an Oven Rack" under Setting Oven
Controls. Use a mild, abrasive cleaner, following manufacturer's instructions. Rinse with
clean water and dry. After cleaning the racks, rub the sides of the racks with wax paper or
a cloth containing a small amount of baby oil or salad oil (this will make the racks glide
easier into the rack positions).
Gentle scouring with a soapy scouring pad will remove most spots. Rinse with a 1:1
solution of clear water and ammonia.
If necessary
, cover difficult spots with an ammonia-
soaked paper towel for 30 to 40 minutes. Rinse with clean water and a damp cloth and
then scrub with a soap-filled scouring pad. Rinse and wipe dry with a clean cloth. Re-
move all cleaners or the porcelain may become damaged during future heating. DO NOT
use spray oven cleaners on the cooktop.
To clean oven door, wash with hot, soapy water and a clean cloth. DO NOT immerse the
door in water.
DO NOT clean the oven door gasket. The oven door gasket is made of a woven material
which is essential for a good seal. Care should be taken not to rub, damage or remove the
gasket.
For general cleaning
, use hot, soapy water and a cloth.
For more difficult soils and built-
up grease
, apply a liquid detergent directly onto the soil. Leave on soil for 30 to 60 minutes.
Rinse with a damp cloth and dry. DO NOT use abrasive cleaners on any of these
materials; they can scratch. To remove control knobs, turn to the OFF position; grasp
firmly and pull straight off the shaft. To replace knobs after cleaning, line up the flat sides
of both the knob and the shaft; then push the knob into place.

3. Push the drawer into the range until the glides levers “click” (approx. 2 in.). Pull the
drawer open again to seat it into position.
4. If you do not hear the glide levers “click” or if the drawer does not feel seated,
remove it and repeat steps 1 through 3. Doing so will minimize damage to the bearing
glides. Do not try to force the drawer into place.
Flammable materials should not be stored in an oven, near surface elements
or in the storage drawer or compartment (if equipped). This includes paper, plastic and cloth
items, such as cookbooks, plasticware and towels, as well as flammable liquids. Do not store
explosives, such as aerosol cans, on or near the range. Flammable materials may explode
and result in fire or property damage.
To Remove and Replace Right Oven Door
1. Open the door to the fully opened position.
2. Pull up the lock located on both hinge supports and engage it in the hinge levers. You
may have to apply a little downward pressure on the door to pull the locks fully over the
hooks.
3. Grab the door by the sides, pull the bottom of the door up and toward you to disengage
the hinge supports. Keep pulling the bottom of the door toward you while rotating the
top of the door toward the range to completely disengage the hinge levers.
4. To replace the door, reverse the door removal steps. Make sure the hinge supports are
fully engaged before unlocking the hinge levers.
The door is heavy. After removing door, lay it flat on the floor with its inside
facing down.
To Change the Oven Light
The oven light automatically turns on when the door is opened
(some models). To turn the oven light on and off when the

Self-Cleaning Cycle" in the ELECTRONIC OVEN CONTROL section.
(1) Failure to clean bottom, front top or oven, frame or door area outside oven seal. These
areas are not in the self-cleaning area, but get hot enough to burn on residue. Clean these
areas before the self-cleaning cycle is started. Burned-on residue can be cleaned with a stiff
nylon brush and water or nylon scrubber. Be careful not to damage the oven seal.
(1) Foods with acids, such as tomatoes, if allowed to stand in/on bowls will cause
corrosion. Remove and wash drip bowls as soon as possible after a spillover. (2) Normal
environment. Houses along sea coast are exposed to salt air. Protect bowls as much as
possible from direct exposure to salt air.
(1) Bottom surface of cookware extends beyond surface elements and touches cooktop
surface. This can cause high enough temperatures to discolor the drip bowls. DO NOT use
cookware of this type. Pan sizes should be matched to the size of the element.
Replacement drip bowls may be purchased from your dealer.
(1) Replace or tighten bulb. See Changing Cooktop and/or Oven Lights (some models)
in this Owner's Guide for instructions.
