important Safety instructions
Do not use the oven or Warmer Drawer
(if equipped) for storage.
Storage in or on AppliancemFlammable materials
should not be stored in an oven, storage or warmer
drawer, or on or near any Cooking Zones. This
includes paper, plastic and cloth items, such as
cookbooks, plasticware and towels, as weft as flammable
liquids. Do not store explosives, such as aerosol cans, on

IMPORTANT iNSTRUCTiONS FOR USING YOUR
COOKTOP
oKnow which knob controls each surface heating unit.
Place a pan of food on the unit before turning it on, and
turn the unit off before removing the pan.
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
heating element. The use of undersized utensils will
expose a portion of the heating element to direct contact
and may result in ignition of clothing. Proper relationship of
utensil to element will also improve efficiency.
. Utensil Handles Should Be Turned inward and Not
Extend Over Adjacent Surface Elements--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 Elements Unattended at High
Heat Settings--Boilovers cause smoking and greasy
spillovers that may ignite, or a pan that has boiled dry may
melt.
Do Not Immerse or Soak Removable Heating
Elements_Heating elements should never be immersed
in water. Heating elements clean themselves during normal
operation.
Glazed Cooking Utensils--Only certain types of glass,
glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed
utensils are suitable for cook top service without breaking
due to the sudden change in temperature. Check the
manufacturer's recommendations for cook top use.
When flaming foods under a ventilating hood, turn
the fan on.
FOR CERAMIC-GLASS COOK TOP MODELS
Do Not Cook on Broken Cook Top--if cook top should
break, cleaning solutions and spillovers may penetrate the
broken cook top and create a risk of electric shock.
Contact a qualified technician immediately.
Clean Cook Top 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 noxious
fumes if applied to a hot surface.

important Safety instructions
iMPORTANT iNSTRUCTiONS FOR USING YOU R
OVEN
=Use Care When Opening Oven Door or Warmer
Drawer (if equipped)--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.
oKeep Oven Vent Ducts Unobstructed. The oven vent is
located under the left rear surface element if your model is
equipped with coil elements. The oven vent is located
below the backguard for models equipped with ceramic-
glass cook tops. 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 the
oven vent. These items could melt or ignite.
Placement of Oven Racks. Always place oven racks in
desired location while oven is 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 oven.
Remove all utensils from the rack before moving.
Do not use the broiler pan without its insert. The
broiler pan and its insert allow dripping fat to drain and be
kept away from the high heat of the broiler.
, Do not cover the broiler insert with aluminum foil.
Exposed fat and grease could ignite.
, Protective Liners--Do not use aluminum foil to line the
oven bottom. Only use aluminum foil as recommended in
this manual. Improper installation of these liners may
result in risk of electric shock, or fire.
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR CLEANING
YOUR RANGE
, Clean the range regularly to keep all parts free of
grease that could catch fire. Pay particular attention to the
area underneath each surface element. Do not allow grease
to accumulate.
o Kitchen cleaners and aerosolsmAIways follow the
manufacturer's recommended directions for use. Be
aware that excess residue from cleaners and aerosols may
ignite causing damage and injury.
, Clean Ventilating Hoods FrequentlymGrease should
not be allowed to accumulate on the hood or filter.
Follow manufacturer's instructions for cleaning.
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.
SELF CLEANING OVENS
Clean in the self=cleaning cycle only the parts listed
in this Use & Care Manual. Before self cleaning the
oven, remove the broiler pan and any utensils or foods from
the oven.
Do Not Use Oven Cleaners--No commercial oven
cleaner or oven 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.
The health of some birds is extremely sensitive to the
fumes given offduring the self-cleaning cycle of any range.
Move birds to anotherwell-ventilated room.

induction Cooktop Features
Fast and Efficient - Induction cooking heats faster while using less energy. Induction power levels are quick to boil and
efficient when simmering.
A Cooler Cooktop- A unique feature of the Induction Cooktop is whether turned ON or OFF, the cooktop surface remains
cooler than radiant ceramic style cooktops. Virtually no wasted heat is produced since the heat begins with the presence of
a pan.
Easy Clean-ups- The cooler cooktop surface (when compared to a radiant cooktop) makes clean-ups easier. Spills resist
sticking or burning so they wipe up easier.
Magnetic Detector - The coil sensor automatically detects whether the pan is magnetic and eliminates any accidental
"turn-ONs" such as setting down cooking utensils like spatulas or spoons.
Pan Size Detection - The pan size recognition sensor automatically detects and adapts the Cooking Zones to the pan
sizes in use for consistent, more even cooking.
More Responsive= Induction cooktops are more responsive than their electric or gas counterparts because only the pan
heats. This type of cooking heats easier and will be just as responsive when reducing to a simmer.
The Cooking Zones may appear to be cool while turned ON and after they have been turned OFF. The
ceramic glass surface may be HOT from residual heat transfered from the cookware and burns may occur.

Display Window Messages (ESEC)
The Electronic Surface Element Control ("ESEC") feature provides a digital display of the settings for the induction cooking
zones on the cooktop. The ESEC displays in combination with the touch pads are designed to replace the conventional
control knob and power level tick mark indicators.
Please note: Unlike standard ceramic cooktops, induction cooktops do not heat
and will not glow read when active. Only the pan heats. Also, induction cooking
zones cannot be turned on without a properly placed pan made of magnetic material
such as steel or cast iron. This feature helps reduce accidental "turn-ons".
Cooking Zone ON/OFF Pad- Each of the four Cooking Zones have separate ON/
OFF key pads. Touch the corresponding Cooking Zone ON/OFF key pad once to
active the Cooking Zone needed. _- - " will appear in the LED display (Fig 1). If
the corresponding UP/DOWN Arrow key pad is not touched within 5 seconds, the
request to turn the Cooking Zone ON will cancel.
To set a Cooking Zone power level, touch the corresponding Cooking Zone UP or
DOWN Arrow key pad once. To turn OFF a Cooking Zone, touch the Cooking Zone
ON/OFF key pad once.
PowerLevel Settinqs- Once activated, the Cooking Zones will provide 23 Power
Levels to choose from. These include Lo (Fig. 2), 1.2, 1.4, 1.6, 1.8, 2.0, 2.2, 2.4,
2.6, 2.8, 3.0, 3.5, 4.0, 4.5, 5.0, 5.5, 6.0, 6.5, 7.0, 8.0, 9.0, Hi and Pb (See Fig. 5).
Fig. 2
Fig. 3
The highest setting of Pb (Power Boost) provides the maximum power level for up
to 10 minutes (See Fig. 5). After 10 minutes, the cooking zone will automatically
lower to the Hi setting. The Power Boost setting is only available immediately after
activating a cooking zone and by pressing Q.
Hot Surface Indicator Message Lights
After using any of the cooking zone positions the glass surface may be hot from
residual heat transferred from the cookware and burns may occur. After turning any of
these elements OFF, the cooktop will remain HOT for some time. A sensor monitors
the temperature for the 4 positions on the cooktop. The "Hot Surface" indicator (Fig.
6), located on the backguard, will glow whenever one of the cooking zones becomes
too HOT to touch. The Hot Surface indicator light will remain ON while hot and turn
OFF once the cooktop has cooled sufficiently (Fig. 7).
The Cooking Zones may appear to be cool while turned ON and after
they have been turned OFF. The induction cooking zones will not turn red when they
are on. The glass surface may be HOT from residual heat transfered from the
cookware and burns may occur.
Sabbath Day Feature and (- =) Message

Before Using the Cooktop
CORRECT COOKWARE TYPE =The magnetic Cooking Zone sensors located below
the cooktop surface require the use of cookware made with magnetic material in order
to start the heating process on any of the Cooking Zones.
When purchasing pans, look for cookware specifically identified by the manufacturer
for use with Induction cooktops. If you're not sure, use a magnet to test whether the
cookware type will work. If a magnet sticks to the bottom of the cookware, the material
type is correct for Induction cooking (See Fig. 1).
Fig. 1
It is recommended to always use heavier high quality stainless steel cookware on your Induction Cooktop surface. This will
greatly reduce the possibility of developing scratches on the ceramic surface.
Even quality cookware can scratch the cooktop surface, especially if cookware is slid over the ceramic cooktop surface
without being lifted up. Over time sliding ANY type of cookware over the ceramic cooktop will likely alter the overall appear-
ance of the cooktop. Eventually the buildup of scratches will make cleaning the surface difficult and degrade the overall
appearance of the cooktop.

USE THE CORRECT SIZE COOKWARE - The 4 Cooking Zones available on the Induction Cooktop require a MiNiMUM pan
size to be used at each location (Fig. 2). The inner ring of each Cooking Zone is your guide to the correct MINIMUM pan
size. The pan bottom must FULLY cover the inner ring for proper cooking to occur.
The thicker outer ring at each Cooking Zone is helpful to determine the pan MAXIMUM size. After centering the cookware of
the cooktop, make sure the cookware does not extend more than 1/2" beyond the thicker line on the Cooking Zone (See
example in Fig. 2). The pan must make FULL contact on the glass surface without the bottom of the pan touching the metal
cooktop trims (shown in Fig. 2).
NOTE: If a pan made of the correct material is centered properly on any of the active Cooking Zones but is TOO SMALL, the
affected Cooking Zone display will flash and the pan will not heat.

Cooktop should have flat bottoms that
make good contact with the entire surface
of the Cooking Zone. Check for flatness by
rotating a ruler across the bottom of the
cookware (See Fig. 1). Be sure to follow all
the recommendations for using cookware.
Also remember to:
Use cookware made with the correct
material type for Induction Cooking. See
the "Correct Cookware Type" in the
"Before Using the Cooktop" section.
Use quality cookware with heavier
bottoms for better heat distribution
allowing for more even cooking results.
The pan size should match the amount
of food being prepared.
Do not let pans boil dry. This may
cause permanent damage in the form of
breakage, fusion, or marring that can af-
fect the ceramic cooktop. (This type of
damage is not covered by your warranty).
Do not use dirty pans with grease
buildup. Always use pans that are easy
to clean after cooking.

Operating the Cooking Zones
The Induction cooktop has four Cooking Zones designed for cookware of various sizes. Be sure to
place cookware that meets the minimum and maximum pan size requirements (See "Correct
Cookware Type" in the "Before Using the Cooktop" section) for the Cooking Zone desired and is
best for the amount of food being prepared. Place the cookware with the prepared food on the
Cooking Zone BEFORE setting any of the Cooktop controls.
To Turn ON one or more of the Cooking Zones:
1. Place the prepared food using the correct type and size cookware on the desired Cooking
Zone. Be sure to center the cookware on the Cooking Zone completely covering the minimum
ring marked on the Zone surface. PLEASE NOTE: If the cookware requirements for the Cooking
Zone (See "Correct Cookware Type" in the "Before Using the Cooktop" section) are not met, the
sensors will detect a problem and the display window will flash. Any problems must be
corrected before proceeding.
2. To start one or more of the four Cooking Zones lightly touch the O key pad for the Cooking
Zones needed. A beep will sound and the chosen Cooking Zone power level digital display will
show" - - ", indicating no power level for the Zone has been set yet. NOTE: If no other key pad
is touched within 5 seconds the request to Power ON the Cooktop Zone will clear.
3. Set the desired power level for the Cooking Zone by touching either the @ or Q key
pad. If the @ key pad is touched the Cooking Zone will start at a "Power Boost" maximum
power level (the Cooking Zone LED will display Pb and the control will beep once). If the Q
key pad is touched once the Cooking Zone will start at Lo (the Cooking Zone LED will display
Lo and the control will beep once).

°o%
NOTE: Touch once, or repeatedly touch the _ or _ key pads to adjust or scroll
through power levels at any time during the cooking process (To scroll through the power levels
quickly touch and hold the @ or Q key pads until the power level desired is reached).
Once the Cooking Zone power level has been set the food will begin to heat at that level until
the power level is manually changed. For more information about the available Cooktop Zones
power levels available see "Recommended Induction Cooking Settings" in the "Setting the
Cooktop Control" section.
Fig. 1
Cooking zones will appear to be cool after they have been turned off. The glass surface may still be hot
and burns may occur if the glass surface is touched before it has cooled sufficiently.
Do not place aluminum foil or plastic items such as salt and pepper shakers, spoon holders or
plastic wrappings on top of the range when it is in use. These items could melt or ignite. Potholders, towels or
wooden spoons could catch fire if placed too close to the surface elements.

To Turn ON one or more of the Cooking Zones (cont'd)
Important Operating Notes:
* If the cookware or pan is moved from the center of any active Cooking Zone for any reason, a sensor will detect the
situation and the cookware will no longer heat. The affected Cooking Zone display window will flash. The Cooking
Zone will remember the power level setting for up to 3 minutes before the Cooking Zone will automatically shut OFF. If
the cookware is brought back properly centered over the Cooking Zone again the zone will resume heating and will
remember the power level setting.
To Turn OFF the Cooking Zones:
1. Once cooking is complete, touch the _ key pad to turn the Cooking Zone OFF.
2. When any Cooking Zone is OFF, the Hot Surface indicator light will glow if the Cooking Zone temperature is too HOT.
The Hot Surface indicator will continue to glow as long as the cooktop remains HOT.
The Cooking Zones may appear to be cool while turned ON and after they have been turned OFF. The glass
surface may be HOT from residual heat transfered from the cookware and burns may occur.
Preheat Recommendations
When preheating a pan on the cooktop always watch very carefully. Whenever using the cooktop the user should always
pay attention to any pan and items cooking and remain attentive until the cooking process is complete.
Keep in mind that induction may decrease the amount of time required to preheat a cooking utensil.

background
Setting Cooktop Controls
Power Sharing
Your cooktop is equipped with four induction
elements within two heating sections. The
right-hand and left-hand Cooking Zones are
powered by two independent induction
inverters - one inverter for each of the two
heating sections. Two Cooking Zones in a
heating section share the power of one
inverter. This is called Power Sharing.
For example, if pans are cooking food items
on both right-hand Cooking Zones, the last
Power Level set will be maintained, while the
first pan may experience a slight reduction in
the power level setting.
POWER SHARING TIPS: Remember to set
the power level for the food item you wish to
maintain last. Or, you may choose to
maintain a constant power level for 2 food
items by placing the pans on one of the
Cooking Zones of the left=hand heating
section and the other pan on one of the
Cooking Zones of the right-hand heating
section (Fig 1).

Operational Noises
The electronic processes involved with Induction Cooking may create some unusual background noises. You could hear a
slight "buzz" sound when cooking. These noises are normal and are a part of the Induction Cooking process. Some
cookware will "buzz" louder depending on the material. The "buzz" sound may be more noticeable if the contents of the pan
are cold; as the pan heats up, the sound will decrease. If the power setting is reduced, the sound level will also decrease.
Please note that these noises are more noticeable while cooking at the "Pb" level. Very loud noises are not part of normal
Induction Cooking.

Arranging Warmer (Warm & Ready TM) Drawer Rack Positions
The rack can be used in two ways:
In the upward position (See Fig. 1) to allow low profile food items to be placed both under and on top of the rack (for
example, rolls or biscuits on top of the rack and a casserole dish underneath).
In the downward position (See Fig. 2) to allow you to place light weight food items and empty dishware (for example,
rolls or pastries and dinner plates) on the rack.
Always use

Operating the Warmer Drawer
The purpose of the Warmer Drawer is to keep hot cooked foods at serving
temperature. Always start with hot food. It is not recommended to heat cold
food in the Warmer Drawer. All food placed in the Warmer Drawer should be
covered with a lid or aluminum foil to maintain quality.
Do not use plastic wrap to cover food. Plastic may melt onto the drawer
and be very difficult to clean. Use only utensils and cookware recommended
for oven use in the Warmer Drawer.
Warmer (Warm & Ready TM) Drawer & Bread Proofing
indicator Lights
The control and indicator lights for the Warmer Drawer and Bread Proofing
features are located on the control panel. The indicator lights will turn ON when
the control is set, and remain ON until the controls are turned OFF.
Note: The Warmer Drawer will not operate during the Self=Clean cycle.
Warmer Drawer Humidity Controller Feature
This feature may be used to control humidity levels in the Warmer Drawer. The
control knob is located on the inner front panel of the Warmer Drawer.
To help keep foods moist, move the handle to the right. This closes the vents and
helps keep the moisture inside the Warmer Drawer. For crisp foods, move the
handle to the left. This opens the vents and allows more moisture to escape.
For Dry Heat: Slide the humidity control knob in the direction of (Less) 4_
(See
Fig. 1). This allows more of the moist heat to escape and provides a dryer
environment for the food in the Warmer Drawer.
For Moist Heat: Slide the humidity control knob in the direction of (More) >
(See Fig. 2). This will help keep the food in the Warmer Drawer from drying out.
Both heat and moisture will be applied to the Warmer Drawer cavity,
Note: For some types of servings you may want to store previously prepared food
in a "dry heat" environment.
For frequent controller adjustments, slightly loosen humidity controller knob and
slide to any desired position. To maintain a desired setting, adjust controller knob
into position and tighten knob.

results, preheat the Warmer Drawer before adding the food or bread dough. An
empty drawer will preheat in approximately 15 minutes.
When the food or dough is ready for removal, touch the O pad once to turn the
Warmer Drawer or Bread Proof feature OFF. The Warmer Drawer indicator light will
turn OFF.
Warmer Drawer Food Temperature Settings
Use the recommended Warmer Drawer food temperature settings table (See Warmer
Drawer Recommended Food Settings Table). If a particular food is not listed, start with
the Med setting. If more crispness is desired, remove the lid or aluminum foil from the
food. Most foods can be kept at serving temperatures on the Meal setting. When a
combination of foods are to be kept warm (for instance, a meat with 2 vegetables and
rolls), use the Hi setting. To avoid heat loss, do not open the Warmer Drawer repeatedly
while in use.
Preparing Bread Dough for the Warmer Drawer
The Warmer Drawer has a "Proof Bread" feature that can be used
to help prepare bread dough. The recommended length of time to
keep the bread dough in the Warmer Drawer is about 45-60
minutes. Be sure however to follow the recipe's recommended
times.
The prepared bread dough should be placed in a large bowl
because the dough will nearly double in volume. Arrange the
Warmer Drawer Rack in the downward position (See Fig. 6).
Place the bowl on the rack in the Warmer Drawer and follow the

Using the Meat Probe
Using and Setting the Meat Probe
Checking the internal temperature of your food is the most effective way of insuring that your food has been properly
cooked. When cooking meat such as roasts, hams or poultry you can use the meat probe to check the internal
temperature without any guesswork. For some foods, especially poultry and roasts, testing the internal temperature is the
best method to insure properly cooked meats.
Important things to consider:
Use only the probe supplied with your appliance; any other may result in damage to the probe or the appliance.
Handle the probe carefully when inserting and removing from the food or the receptacle.
Do not use tongs to pull the cable when inserting or removing from the food or the receptacle.
Defrost your food completely before inserting the probe to avoid damaging probe.
Never leave or store the probe inside the oven when not in use.
To prevent the possibility of burns, after cooking carefully unplug the probe using a pot holder.
Proper Meat Probe placement
Always insert the probe so that the tip
rests in the center of the thickest part of
the meat. Do not allow the probe to touch
bone, fat, gristle or the pan.
For bone-in ham or lamb, insert the probe
into the center of the lowest large muscle
or joint. For dishes such as meat loaf or
casseroles, insert the probe into the
center of the food. To find the center of the
food visually measure with the probe (See
Fig. 1). When cooking fish, insert the
probe just above the gill.
For whole poultry or turkey, insert the
probe into the thickest part of the inner
thigh, below the leg (See Fig. 2).

means some food poisoning organisms may survive." (Source. Safe Food Book, Your Kitchen Guide, USDA Rev. June 1985.)
The lowest temperature recommended by the USDA is 145°F/63°C for medium rare fresh beef.
Setting the oven to automatically stop cooking after reaching meat probe target temperature:
The oven leaves the factory preset to alert you when the internal target temperature has been reached but to continue
cooking at the oven set temperature. You may desire to change how your oven reacts when using the meat probe.
Note: Changing how the meat probe reacts must be done before starting the cooking process:
1. To set the oven to shut-off automatically after reaching the Meat Probe target temperature press @ and hold for 6
seconds then use the @ key to toggle to the message P CC (Probe, cancel cooking)then press _ to accept.

Air circulation of Convection Cooking
Fig. 1
Setting Convection Bake
The CONY BAKE _ pad controls the Convection Bake feature.
Use the Convection Bake feature when cooking speed is desired. The
oven can be programmed for Convection Bake at any temperature
between 170 ° F (77 ° C) to 500 ° F (260 ° C).
Convection baking uses a fan to circulate the oven's heat evenly and continuously within the oven (See Fig. 1). This
improved heat distribution allows for even cooking and excellent results using multiple racks at the same time. Foods
cooked on a single oven rack will generally cook faster and more evenly with Convection Bake, Multiple oven rack
cooking may slightly increase cook times for some foods, but the overall result is time saved. Breads and pastries brown
more evenly.
Tips for Convection Bake
1. Time reductions will vary depending on the amount and type of food to be cooked. Cookies and biscuits should be
baked 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.
2. Preheating is not necessary when cooking casseroles with Convection Bake.
3. When using Convection Bake with a single rack, place oven rack in position 3 or 4. If cooking on multiple racks, place
the oven racks in positions 2 and 5 (for 2 racks). Place in positions 1, 3 and 6 (for 3 racks). Refer to Fig. 1.
4. Cakes will have better results when baked using the C_k_
keypad.

Self=Cleaning Oven
A Self-Cleaning oven cleans itself with high temperatures (well above cooking
temperatures) which eliminate soils completely or reduces them to a fine
powdered ash you can wipe away with a damp cloth.
Adhere to the following cleaning precautions:
DO NOT use oven cleaners or oven protective coatings in or around any
part of the Self-Cleaning oven.
DO NOT clean the oven door gasket. The woven material of the oven door
gasket is essential for a good seal. Care should be taken not to rub,
damage or remove the gasket.
DO NOT use any cleaning materials on the oven door gasket. Doing so
could cause damage.
. Remove the broiler pan and insert, all utensils and any aluminum
foil, These items cannot withstand high cleaning temperatures.
Porcelain Oven racks do not have to be removed. After the cycle is
complete and the oven has cooled, rub the sides of the oven racks with
wax paper or a cloth containing a small amount of vegetable oil (this will
make the racks glide easier into the rack position).
. Remove any excessive spillovers in the oven cavity before starting the
Self-Cleaning 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 milk, tomatoes, sauerkraut, fruit juices or pie filling) to remain on
the surface as they may leave a dull spot even after cleaning.
Clean any soil from the oven frame, the door liner outside the oven door
gasket and the small area at the front center of the oven bottom. These
areas heat sufficiently to burn soil on. Clean with soap and water.
NOTE: Prior to setting the Self-Clean cycle, any spills remaining on the oven
bottom should be removed.

Cooktop Cleaning & Maintenance
Cleaning Recommendations for the Ceramic Glass Cooktop
Cooktop Cleaning & Maintenance
Consistent andpropercleaning is essential to maintaining yourceramic glass cooktop:
Prior to using your cooktop for the first time, apply the recommended CookTop® Cleaning Creme to the ceramic surface
(on the web visit www.sears.com for replacement cooktop cleaner, item number 40079). Buffwith a non-abrasive cloth
or no-scratch cleaning 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 futu re 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, they may cause it to crack.
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 CookTop® Cleaning Creme directly to the cooktop. Use a paper towel or use a non-abrasive plastic
type no-scratch cleaning pad to clean the entire cooktop surface. Make sure the cooktop is cleaned thoroughly, leaving no
residue.
For heavy, burned on soil:
Apply a few drops of CookTo Cleaning Creme directly to the soiled area. Rub the soiled area using a non-abrasive
plastic type no-scratch cleaning pad, applying pressure as needed. Do not use the pad you use to clean the cooktop for
any other purpose.
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.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Damage to the ceramic glass cooktop may occur if you
use an abrasive type cleaning pad. Only use cleaning products that have been
specifically designed for ceramic glass cooktops.
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
surface) 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.

HOME® for assistance (See back cover).
Surface element too hot or not hot enough. Incorrect control setting. Make sure the correct control is ON for the cooking zone.
Surface element does not heat. Make sure to use correct cookware type for Induction cooking. Look for cookware
specifically identified by the manufacturer for use with Induction cooktops. If you're not
sure, use a magnet to test whether the cookware type wilt work. If a magnet sticks to the
bottom of the cookware, the material type is correct for Induction cooking. It is
recommended to always use heavier HIGH quality stainless steel cookware on your
Induction Cooktop surface.
Lightweight or warped pans used. Use only flat, evenly balanced, medium or heavyweight
cookware. Flat pans heat better than warped pans. Cookware materials and weight of
the material affect heating. Heavy and medium weight pans heat evenly. Because light
weight pans heat unevenly, foods may burn easily.
Surface elements do not glow when on
The induction cooking zones wilt not glow when they are on as cooking zone do.
Induction cooking uses electromagnetic energy to induce heat directly to the
cookware.
Entire appliance does not operate
No power to the appliance. Check steps under "Entire Appliance Does Not Operate" in
this Before You Call checklist.
Incorrect control setting. Make sure the correct control is set for the surface element to
