IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING

YOUR OVEN

• Use care when opening oven door , lower 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.

• Keep 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 interior 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re.

• Clean the range regularly to keep all parts free of

grease that could catch re. Pay particular attention

to the area around each surface element. Do not allow

grease to accumulate.

• 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.

• Clean ventilating hoods frequently—Grease

should not be allowed to accumulate on the hood

or lter. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for

cleaning hoods.

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qualied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.

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 off during the self-cleaning cycle of any

range. Move birds to another well-ventilated room.

Before manually cleaning any part of the range, be sure

all controls are turned OFF and the range is COOL. The

range may be hot and can cause burns.

WARNING

BEFORE SETTING SURFACE CONTROLS

Benets of induction surface cooking

Fast and efcient - The induction cooking zones heat

faster while using less energy. Induction power levels are

quicktoboilandefcientwhensimmering.

A cooler cooktop - A unique feature of the induction

cooking zones is whether turned on or off, the cooking

zones remain cooler than radiant type elements. Virtually

no wasted heat is produced since the heat begins with the

presence of cookware.

Easy cleanups - The cooler cooking zones make cleanup

easier. Spills resist sticking or burning so they wipe up

easily.

Magnetic detector - The cooking zone has a sensor that

automatically detects whether cookware is magnetic. This

will reduce accidental “turn-ons.”

Pan size detection - The pan size recognition sensor

automatically detects and adapts the induction cooking

zones to the pan sizes in use for consistent, more even

cooking.

More responsive - The induction cooking zones 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.

Induction cooking directly heats the pan; heating will only

begin when cookware is properly placed on the cooking

zones.

About the induction cooktop

Your cooktop is equipped with four differently-sized

induction cooking zones and a radiant heat warmer zone.

Induction cookware

When purchasing pans for use on the induction

cooktop,lookforcookwarespecicallyidentiedbythe

manufacturer as induction ready, induction capable,

or a similar statement by the manufacturer that the

cookwareisspecicallydesignedforinductioncooking.

The cooking zones will not activate if the cookware is not

constructed with a base magnetic material. To check if

the cookware base material is suitable, use a magnet to

test (See Fig. 1). If a magnet sticks to the bottom of the

cookware, the material type is correct.

For the best possible surface cooking results, it is

recommended to only use high quality heavy gauge

cookware on the induction cooking zones.

Be sure to follow all the manufacturer’s recommendations

when using cookware made for induction cooking.

Before using the induction cooking zones, be

sure to carefully read and follow these cookware

recommendations and the instructions in the pan

sensing section.

Induction cookware types

The most common induction cookware types available are:

Stainless steel - Generally, excellent for induction

cooking. Is durable, easy to clean and resists staining.

Cast iron - Good for induction cooking. Cooks evenly.

Do not slide cast iron cookware on cooktop. Cast iron

cookware with a rough surface will scratch ceramic

cooktop.

Porcelain-enamel on ferrous metal - Heating

characteristics will vary depending on quality of base

material. Porcelain-enamel coating must be smooth to

avoid scratching ceramic cooktop.

Not all stainless steel cookware is magnetic; stainless

steel is not always suitable for induction cooking.

IMPORTANT

BEFORE SETTING SURFACE CONTROLS

Moving cookware on smoothtop

It is recommended to always use heavier gauge high

quality cookware on the cooking zones. Even high quality

cookware can still scratch the cooktop surface. Do not

slide cookware on the ceramic cooktop.

Sliding any type of cookware over the surface will scratch

the cooktop over time. Scratches will make cleaning the

ceramiccooktopdifcultanddegradetheappearanceof

the cooktop.

For more detailed information about the cooktop see

“Cooktop maintenance” and “Cooktop cleaning” in the

Care & Cleaning section.

When using the cooking zones

• Be sure to use cooktop cookware made with a magnetic

base material.

• Use quality cooktop cookware with heavier bottoms for

better heat distribution, allowing for more even cooking

results.

• Check that cookware bottom rests level on cooktop

surface.Cookwareshouldhaveatbottomsthatmake

good contact with the entire induction cooking zone

area.Checkforatnessbyrotatingaruleracrossthe

bottom of the cookware (See Fig. 1).

• Be sure cookware is properly balanced and does not tilt

from a heavy handle.

• Be sure that the pan size matches the amount of food

to be prepared. The size and type of cookware used will

inuencethesettingneededforbestcookingresults.

• Never let cookware boil dry. This may cause permanent

damage such as breakage, fusion, or marring that can

affect the cooktop.

• Use cookware that meets the minimum and maximum

cookware size requirements for each cooking zone.

Fig. 1

IMPORTANT

• Always lift cookware before moving on the ceramic

glass smoothtop.

• Any cookware that has rough or dirty bottoms can

mark and scratch the ceramic glass surface. Always

start with clean cookware.

Fig. 2

BEFORE SETTING SURFACE CONTROLS

Home Canning

Be sure to read and observe all the following points when

home canning with your appliance. Check with the USDA

(United States Department of Agriculture) website and

be sure to read all the information they have available as

well as follow their recommendations for home canning

procedures.

• Useonlyqualityatbottomcannerswhenhome

canning. Use a straight-edge to check canner bottom

(see Cookware Recommendations section).

• Use only a completely at bottom canner with no

ridges that radiate from the bottom center when home

canning using a range with a ceramic glass cooktop.

• Make sure the diameter of the canner does not

exceed 1 inch beyond the cooking zone markings.

It is recommended to use smaller diameter canners on

ranges with ceramic glass or open coil electric cooktops.

• Start with hot tap water to bring water to boil more

quickly.

• Usethehighestheatsettingwhenrstbringingthe

water to a boil. Once boiling is achieved, reduce heat to

lowest possible setting to maintain that boil.

IMPORTANT

NEVER place or straddle a cooking utensil over 2 dif-

ferent surface cooking zones heating at the same time.

This will cause uneven heating results and could cause

the ceramic cooktop to fracture.

• Unlike radiant surface elements, the cooking zones

will not glow red when they are hot. The glass

surface may be hot from residual heat transferred

from the cookware and burns may occur.

• Do not touch hot cookware or pans directly

with hands. Always use oven mitts or pot holders to

protect hands from burns.

CAUTION

The type and size of cookware, cooking duration, the

number of cooking zones in use and their power level

settings are all factors that will affect the amount of heat

that will spread beyond the cooking zones.

The induction cooking zones and areas surrounding

the cooking zones may become hot enough to cause

burns. Be sure to read all cautions.

Hot cookware and residual heat

INDUCTION COOKING ZONES

Cooktop display windows

The range backguard provides a digital window for each

of the cooking zones located on the cooktop. Power levels

and messages are easily monitored and controlled using

the window displays in combination with the corresponding

control knobs.

Available power level settings

The cooktop control (Fig. 1) will display power levels

ranging from Pb (power boost, Fig. 2), Hi (Fig. 3) to Lo

(Fig. 4).

The settings between 9.5 (Fig. 5) and 1.5 (Fig. 7)

decrease and increase in 0.5 increments.

Use the “Suggested cooking zone power level settings

table” provided in Setting Surface Controls section to

determine the correct power level setting for the type of

food you are preparing.

The induction cooking zones will not operate when the

oven is set for Sabbath mode. For more details on the

Sabbath feature, see Setting Oven Controls section.

IMPORTANT

Pb (Power Boost) power level

When setting an induction cooking zone for Hi, the display

will initially show Pb (Power Boost) power level for up to

10 minutes (See Fig. 1). After 10 minutes the cooking zone

will automatically return to the Hi (Fig. 3) setting. The

Pb setting is only available immediately after activating a

cooking zone by turning the knob to Hi.

(HE) Hot surface window message

After using an induction cooking zone, the cooktop

may become very hot. After turning any cooking zone

OFF, the cooktop may remain HOT for some time. The

corresponding HE (hot element - Fig. 8) message will

remain ON until the cooktop has cooled.

ESEC Error Indicator Message (Er)

Anerrormessagewillbedisplayed(ashing“Er”) (Fig. 6)

at power up (or after a power failure) if ANY of the surface

control knobs were left in the ON positions. If a power

failure should ocur, be sure to set all of the 4 surface

control knobs to the OFF position (See Fig. 1). This will

reset the surface controls.

Be sure to reset the clock (See page 19). Once the surface

controls have been set to the OFF positions and the clock

has been set with the correct time of day, the surface

controls should return to normal operation. If the surface

controls do not function and the “Er” message remains in

any display after following these procedures, contact an

authorized servicer for assistance.

SETTING SURFACE CONTROLS

Be aware that induction cooking may decrease the amount

of time required to preheat a cooking utensil compared

to cooking on a radiant element cooktop or gas surface

burner.

Whenever using the cooktop or oven always pay close

attention to all food items cooking and remain very

attentive until all the cooking processes are complete.

Pan preheat recommendations

IMPORTANT

Remember that induction surface cooking will initially

heat the cooking utensil very quickly.

1. Place induction cookware on the desired cooking

zone.

2. To activate the cooking zone, push in and turn the

control knob in either direction to the desired setting.

3. Adjust the power level by turning the knob. This

levels 9.5 through 1.5 decrease and increase by 0.5

increments. Lo is the lowest power level available.

4. Once cooking is complete, turn the control knob to

OFF and remove cookware.

Step

To operate induction cooking zones:

• The suggested power level settings shown in Fig. 1

are based on cooking with medium sized pans with

lids. Be sure to make any further setting adjustments

needed for best surface cooking results.

• The size and type of utensil used, and the amount

andtypeoffoodbeingcookedwillinuencethe

setting needed for best cooking results.

SETTING SURFACE CONTROLS

• Unlike radiant surface elements, the induction

cooking zones will not glow red when they are hot.

The glass surface may be hot from residual heat

transferred from the cookware and burns may occur.

• Do not touch hot cookware or pans directly

with hands. Always use oven mitts or pot holders to

protect hands from burns.

• The cooking zones may appear to have cooled after

they have been turned OFF. The glass surface

may still be hot from residual heat and burns may

occur if the cooktop is touched before it has cooled

sufciently.

• Do not place ammable items such as plastic

salt and pepper shakers, spoon holders or plastic

wrappings on the cooktop when it is in use. These

items could melt or ignite if placed too close to hot

cookware.

CAUTION

• The HE (hot element) message will appear in the

display windows once a heating element or cooking

zone is turned OFF and will remain ON until the

heatingsurfaceareaorareashavecooledsufciently.

• Do not allow aluminum foil, or ANY material

that can melt to make contact with the ceramic

glass cooktop. If these items melt on the cooktop

they may damage the ceramic cooktop.

• If the cookware is moved from the center of any

active induction cooking zone, the pan sensor will

detect the situation and the cookware will no longer

heat. The affected cooking zone display window will

ashuntilthecookwareismovedbacktocenter

of cooking zone. If the cookware is placed back

properly centered on the cooking zone, the zone will

resume heating. The cooking zone will remember the

power level setting for up to 3 minutes before the

cooking zone will automatically shut OFF.

The electronic processes involved with induction cooking

may create some background noises. You may hear a

slight “buzzing” sound when cooking on the cooktop.

These noises are part of the induction cooking process are

considered normal.

Some cookware will “buzz” depending on the construction

or base material. The “buzz” may be more noticeable if

the contents of the pan are cold. As the pan heats up,

the noise will decrease. The noise will also decrease if the

power level setting is reduced.

Cooktop operational noises

NOTE

When using the induction cooktop, operational noises

are more noticeable while cooking at the “Pb” level.

Very loud noises are not part of normal induction

cooking.

Oven vent location

The oven vent is located under the left side of the

control panel (See Fig. 1). When the oven is on, warm

air passes through this vent. This venting is necessary for

proper air circulation in the oven and good baking results.

Do not block the oven vent.

SETTING SURFACE CONTROLS

To operate warmer zone:

1. Place cookware on the warmer zone.

2. Push in and turn the warmer zone’s control knob to the

On position, indicated by the semi-circle line around the

knob. You may turn the knob either way (left or right)

to activate the burner. (The warmer zone indicator light

will turn on).

3.Whennished,turnthecontrolknobtotheOFF position.

Step

• Radiant surface elements may appear to have cooled

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.

• Do not place ammable items such as plastic

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reifplacedtoocloseto

the surface elements.

CAUTION

Warmer zone

The purpose of the warmer zone is to

keep foods at serving temperature,

such as: vegetables, gravies,

casseroles, soups, stews, breads,

pastries and oven-safe dinner plates.

Warmer zone setting

The warmer zone is a traditional cooktop element. It

does not use induction technology. As a result, magnetic

cookware is not required to activate the heating operations

for this portion of the cooktop. When the control knob is

turned and the heat is activated, the knob’s light will glow.

In addition, after the knob is returned to the OFF position,

the burner will remain warm for a certain amount of time-

-the indicator light will continue to glow until the heating

surfaceareahascooledsufciently.

For best results, 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difculttoremove.Useonly

dishware, utensils and cookware recommended for oven

and cooktop use.

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 to maintain quality.

CAUTION

• The warmer zone is radiant heat, but it will not glow

red when it is hot.To avoid possible burns always use

potholders or oven mitts when moving food to and

from the warmer zone as cookware and plates will

be hot.

BEFORE SETTING OVEN CONTROLS

The at oven rack or at handle oven rack (some

models) may be used for most cooking needs.

The half rack (some models) design comes with a

removable section that allows for taller cooking utensils.

The offset oven rack (some models) is designed to

place the base of the rack about 1/2 of a rack position

lower than normal. This rack design provides several

additional possible positions between the standard

positions.

To maximize oven cooking space place the bottom oven

rack (some models) in the lowest rack position for baking

or roasting large cuts of meat.

The Effortless™ Oven Rack (some models) is described

in the “Effortless™ Oven Rack system” section.

Removing, replacing & arranging racks

Air circulation in the oven

For best baking results allow at least 2 inches (5 cm)

around the cookware for proper air circulation and be

sure pans and cookware do not touch each other, the oven

door, sides or back of the oven cavity. Hot air must be able

to circulate around the pans and cookware in the oven for

even heat to reach around the food.

Arranging - always

arrange the oven racks

when the oven is cool (prior

to operating the oven).

Only the Effortless™ Oven Rack should be used

in oven rack position 2. Placing any other rack in

rack position 2 will prevent the oven door from fully

closing.

IMPORTANT

Always use oven mitts when using the oven.

When using the appliance, oven racks and cooktop will

become very hot which can cause burns.

CAUTION

Effortless™ Oven Rack system

Some models are equipped with a special oven rack

system that automatically extends the oven rack to assist

in access to your food items. This rack extends when the

oven door is opened or closed.

To assemble the Effortless™ Oven Rack system:

1. Locate all required parts. You will need the supplied

ovenrack(Effortless™OvenRackisaatrackwith

a special dark coating on the left and right rack

sides) and the 2 supplied chrome connector arms.

2. Open the oven door. Be sure the oven is completely

cool before proceeding.

3. Place the oven rack in positions 2, 3 or 4 only (see

previous page to verify positions). Be sure the rack

connector brackets are at the rear of the range and

pointing towards oven bottom (See Fig. 2).

4. Assemble one connector arm at a time. With the

oven door open and the oven rack in place, install

one end of the connector arm to the hole in the door

connector bracket (Fig. 1) and the other end in the

hole in the rack connector bracket (Fig. 2 and as

in Fig. 3). The oven rack may need to be adjusted in

or out in the rack position to match the length of the

connector arm.

5. While holding the connector arm in place, twist the

connector arm so the ends of the connector arm point

upwards (See Figs. 4 & 5). The connector arm should

now be locked into position.

6. Repeat steps 4 and 5 for the other connector arm.

7. Once both connector arms are properly in place, be

sure to test the oven rack operation by gently closing

the oven door. The oven rack should move in and out

of the oven freely when the door is opened or closed.

IMPORTANT

Convect roast

Suggestion for convect roast

1. Preheating is not necessary when roasting foods using

convect roast.

2. Since convect roast cooks food faster, reduce the

cook time by 25% from the recommended cook

time of your recipe (check the food at this time).

If necessary, increase cook time until the desired

doneness is obtained.

3. Do not cover foods when dry roasting - this will

prevent the meat from browning properly.

Convect bake

Suggestions for convect baking

1. Preheat the oven when baking foods such as cookies,

biscuits and breads.

2. Reduce oven temperature 25°F/14ºC from recipe’s

listed oven temperature. Follow the minimum

recommended cook time.

3. When using a single oven rack, position rack so

cookware is in the middle of the oven.

4. When using two oven racks at the same time, place

in positions 2 and 5 for best results (see Fig. 2). Place

pans as shown in Figure 3.

Convection Cooking

Benets of the convect feature

— Foods may cook up to 25 to 30% faster, saving time and

energy.

— No special pans or bakeware needed.

— Recommended cooking method for baked goods such as

cakes, biscuits, pastries, and bread.

Convect uses a fan to circulate heat inside the oven.

Improved heat distribution allows for fast, even cooking

and browning. It gives better baking results when using

two racks at the same time.

NOTES

• When choosing between the convect features, use

the convect key to choose convect bake, convect

roast or convect broil functions.

• When using convection, cook time reductions may

vary depending on the amount and type of food

being cooked.

• The convection fan will begin rotating once

convection bake or convection roast has been

activated.

1. Press convect.

2. Press start (See Fig. 4).

SETTING OVEN CONTROLS

Suggestions for convect broil:

1. When using a broil pan, carefully follow all

recommended instructions for placing the oven racks

as provided in the “Broil” section in this Use & Care

Guide.

2. Since convect broil cooks food faster, reduce the

cook time by 25% from the recommended cook

time of your recipe (check the food at this time).

If necessary, increase cook time until the desired

doneness is obtained.

3. Close the oven door when using convect broil.

Convect broil

Use the convect broil feature to cook thicker cuts of

meats that require direct exposure to radiant heat and the

convection fan for optimum browing results.

Setting convect convert

The convect convert feature allows you to convert any

baking recipe using the convect (convection) feature. The

control uses the normal recipe settings and adjusts to a

lower temperature for convection baking. Convect convert

can only be set with the convect bake feature.

To set convect using default oven set temperature

of 350°F and adding the convect convert:

Step Press

1. Press convect.

2. Press convect convert.

1. Press convect key 3 times.

2. Press start (See Fig. 1).

To set convect broil with a default oven set

temperature of 550°F:

Step Press

NOTE

Fig. 1

The convection fan will begin rotating once

convection broil has been activated.

NOTES

• When convect convert is used with bake time , the

convect convert feature will display a “CF” for check

food when the bake time is 75% complete (See Fig.

2). At this time the oven control will sound one long

beep at regular intervals until the set cook time has

nished.

Fig. 2

• The convection fan will begin rotating once

convection bake or convection roast has been activated.

• When using convect convert, cook time reductions may

vary depending on the oven set temperature.

• The minimum amount of cook time allowed using the

convect convert feature with a bake time or a delay

time bake setting is 20 minutes.

• Layer cakes will have better results using the normal

bake feature.

Probe

• Insert the probe so that the tip is centered in the

thickest part of the food (see Fig. 2). For best results, do

not allow the probe temperature sensor to contact bone,

fat, gristle, or cookware.

• For bone-in ham or lamb, insert the probe into the

center of lowest large muscle or joint. For dishes such as

meat loaf or casseroles, insert the probe into center of

food.Whencookingsh,insertmeatprobejustabove

the gill.

• For whole poultry or turkey, insert the probe sensor into

the thickest part of inner thigh, just below the leg (See

Fig. 3).

Proper probe placement in food:

For some food types, especially poultry and roasts, using

a probe to check the internal temperature is the safest

possible method to ensure properly cooked food.

The probe feature, when set correctly, will alert when the

internal food temperature reaches the desired “target”

temperature.

When active, the probe will display the internal food

temperature, eliminating the need for any guesswork.

To avoid the possibility of burns after cooking with the

probe, use care when disconnecting the probe from the

receptacle or food. The probe may be hot. Be sure to

always use a pot holder to protect your hands.

CAUTION

Use the probe for best results when cooking foods such

as roasts, hams or poultry. The probe also works well with

SELF-CLEANING

Self-cleaning

A self-cleaning oven cleans itself with high temperatures

(well above normal cooking temperatures) which eliminate

soilscompletelyorreducesthemtoanepowderedash

you can wipe away with a damp cloth.

Your oven allows you to set 3 different self-cleaning cycle

durations. A 3-hour cleaning time is best used for normal

cleaning; 2-hour time for light soils and a 4-hour time

option for heavier burnt-on soils.

During the self-cleaning cycle, the outside of the range

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.

DO NOT force the oven door open. This can damage

the automatic door locking system. Use caution

when opening the door after the self-cleaning cycle is

completed. The oven may still be VERY HOT.

Adhere to the following self-clean precautions:

• DO NOT use oven cleaners or oven protective

coatings in or around any part of the oven interior.

• 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 (See

Fig. 1).

• Remove the broiler pan and insert, all utensils

and ANY ALUMINUM FOIL. These items

cannot withstand high cleaning temperatures

and will melt.

• Completely remove ALL OVEN RACKS and

ANY ACCESSORIES. If the oven racks are not

removed they will lose their special coating

properties and no longer slide in and out of

the oven cavity easily.

• Remove any excessive spillovers. Any spills on

the oven bottom should be wiped-up and removed

before starting the self-cleaning cycle. To clean,

use hot, soapy water and a cloth. Large spillovers

cancauseheavysmokeorre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lling)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

IMPORTANT

Before manually cleaning any part of the range, be sure

all controls are turned OFF and the range is COOL. The

range may be hot and can cause burns.

CAUTION

As soon as the controls are set, the motor driven door

lock will begin to close automatically. “door Loc” will

appear in the display (See Fig. 1). DO NOT open the

oven door while “door Loc” is on (allow 15 seconds for

the oven door to completely lock).

Once the door has locked “CLn” will appear in the

display indicating the oven will begin the self-clean

process (Fig. 2).

1. Press cancel.

2. Allow enough time for the oven to cool and for the

“door OPn” message to appear (Fig. 4). When this

message turns off the oven door may be opened.

If a self-clean cycle was active, then stopped or

interrupted by power failure, it may be necessary to

run a self-clean cycle again to thoroughly clean the

oven. Please be aware that you may need to allow up

to four hours before self-clean can be started again.

Setting a self-clean cycle or a delayed start

When the self-clean cycle has completed:

1. The time of day and “Hot” will appear in the display

window (See Fig.3).

2. Once the oven has cooled down for about 1 hour

and “Hot” is no longer displayed the “door OPn”

message should appear (Fig. 4). When this message

turns off the oven door may be opened. Use caution

and avoid possible burns when opening the door after

the self-cleaning cycle has completed. The oven may

still be VERY HOT.

When the self-clean feature is active you may check

the amount of time remaining in the self-clean cycle

by pressing the

pad once. The oven door will be

lockeduntiltherangehascooledsufciently.Youwill

Consistent and proper cleaning is essential to

maintaining your ceramic glass cooktop.

Do not:

• Slide anything across the cooktop.

• Use cookware with dirt or dirt build-up on bottom;

replace with clean cookware before using.

• Use your cooktop as a cutting board or work surface in

the kitchen.

• Drop heavy or hard objects on the ceramic glass

cooktop, they may cause it to crack.

For light to moderate soil:

Apply a few drops of cooktop cleaning cream directly

to the cooktop. Use a clean paper towel to clean the

entire cooktop surface. Make sure the cooktop is cleaned

thoroughly, leaving no residue. Do not use the towel you

use to clean the cooktop for any other purpose.

For heavy, burned on soil:

Apply a few drops of cooktop cleaning cream 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.

Priortousingyourcooktopforthersttime,apply

a ceramic cooktop cleaning cream (available in most

hardware, grocery and department stores) to the ceramic

surface. Clean and buff with a clean paper towel. This will

make cleaning easier when soiled from cooking. Cooktop

cleaningcreamsleaveaprotectivenishontheglassto

help prevent scratches and abrasions.

Sliding metal 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 ceramic-coated)

with rough or dirty bottoms can mark or scratch the

cooktop surface.

Before cleaning the cooktop, be sure the controls are

turned to OFF and the cooktop is COOL.

Adjust leveling legs at base of appliance until the rack is level.

• Kitchen cabinet alignment may make range appear not level. Be sure cabinets are

square&havesufcientroomforapplianceclearance.

Poor baking results. • Many factors affect baking results. Make sure the proper oven rack position is

used. Center food in the oven and space pans to allow air to circulate. Allow

the oven to preheat to the set temperature before placing food in the oven. Try

adjusting the recipe’s recommended temperature or baking time. If you feel the

oven is too hot or cool, see “Adjusting Oven Temperature” section in this Use &

Care Guide.

Oven portion of appliance does not operate.

Surface cookware seems too hot or not

hot enough.

• Incorrect induction cooktop power level setting. Adjust power level setting higher or

lower as needed.

Induction cooking zone does not heat

cookware or does not heat evenly.

• Be sure the correct surface control is activated for the cooking zone.

• Be sure to use the correct cookware material type for induction cooking. Use

cookwarespecicallyidentiedbythemanufacturertouseforinductioncooking.

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.

• Be sure to read about pan-sensing in the Induction Cooking section and correct any

pan-sensing issues in the checklist provided.

• Use quality heavier gauge cookware.

Cooking zones do not glow when heating.

• The induction cooking zones do not glow even when they are hot. Induction cooking

uses electromagnetic energy to induce heat directly to the cookware.

Oven smokes excessively during broiling.

• Incorrect setting. Follow broiling instructions in Setting Oven Controls.

• Make sure oven door is opened to broil stop position.

• Meat too close to the broil element. Reposition the broil rack to provide proper

clearance between the meat & the element. Preheat the broil element for searing.

• Meat not properly prepared. Remove excess fat from meat. Cut remaining fatty

edges to prevent curling, but do not cut into lean.

• Broiler pan (on some models) insert wrong side up and grease not draining.

Always place insert on the broiler pan with ribs up & slots down to allow grease to

drip into pan.

• Grease has built up on oven surfaces. Regular cleaning is necessary when broiling

frequently. Old grease or food spatters cause excessive smoking.

Flames inside oven or smoking from oven

vent.

• Excessive spillovers in oven. For example this will happen for pie spillovers or large

Burned-on residue can be cleaned with a stiff nylon brush and water or a nylon

scrubber. Be careful not to damage the oven gasket.

• Oven control not set properly. Follow instructions under Self-cleaning.

Oven light does not work.
