IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING: To reduce the risk of

fire, electric shock, injury to persons,

or damage when using the range,

follow basic precautions, including

the following:

,WARNING - TO REDUCE THE

RISK OF TIPPING OF THE RANGE,

THE RANGE MUST BE SECURED

BY PROPERLY INSTALLED ANTI-

TIP DEVICES. TO CHECK IF THE

DEVICES ARE INSTALLED PROP-

ERLY, SLIDE RANGE FORWARD,

LOOK FOR ANTI-TIP BRACKET

SECURELY ATTACHED TO

FLOOR, AND SLIDE RANGE BACK

SO REAR RANGE FOOT IS UNDER

ANTI-TIP BRACKET.

CAUTION = Do not store items

of interest to children in cabinets

above a range or on the backguard

of a range - children climbing on the

range to reach items could be

seriously injured.

• Proper Installation - Be sure the range

is properly installed and grounded by a

qualified technician.

e Never Use the Range for Warming or

Heating the Room.

• Do Not Leave Children Alone - Children

should not be left alone or unattended

in area where the range is in use. They

should never be allowed to sit or stand

on any part of the range.

• Wear Proper Apparel - Loose-fitting or

hanging garments should never be worn

while using the range.

e User Servicing - Do not repair or replace

any part of the range unless specifically

recommended in the manual. All other

servicing should be referred to a qualified

technician.

-SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS-

_ nge Safety

IMPORTANT SAFETY iNSTRUCTiONS

• Use Only Dry Potholders - Moist or

damp potholders on hot surfaces

may result in burns from steam. Do

not let potholder touch hot heating

elements. Do not use a towel or

other bulky cloth.

e DO NOT TOUCH SURFACE UNITS

OR AREAS NEAR UNITS - Surface

units may be hot even though they

are dark in color. Areas near surface

units may become hot enough to

cause burns. During and after use,

do not touch, or let clothing or other

flammable materials contact surface

units or areas near units until they

have had sufficient time to cool.

Among those areas are the cook-top

and surfaces facing the cook-top.

e Use Proper Pan Size - The range is

equipped with one or more surface

units of different size. 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

burner will also improve efficiency.

e Never Leave Surface Units

Unattended at High Heat Settings -

Boilover causes smoking and

greasy spillovers that may ignite.

• Protective Liners - Do not use

aluminum foil to line oven bottoms,

except as suggested in the manual.

Improper installation of these liners

may result in a risk of electric shock,

or fire.

• Glazed Cooking Utensils - Only certain

types of glass, glass/ceramic, ceramic,

earthenware, or other glazed utensils

are suitable for range-top service without

breaking due to the sudden change in

temperature.

e 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 a utensil

should be positioned so that it is turned

inward, and does not extend over

adjacent surface units.

e 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.

e 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

steam burn. Some cleaners can produce

noxious fumes if applied to a hot surface.

• Use Care When Opening Door- Let hot

air or steam escape before removing or

replacing food.

e Do Not Heat Unopened Food Containers

- Build-up of pressure may cause

container to burst and result in injury.

e Keep Oven Vent Ducts Unobstructed.

• Placement of Oven Racks - Always

place oven racks in desired location

while oven is cool. If rack must be moved

while oven is hot, do not let potholder

contact hot heating element in oven.

To use the small element

(for smaller pans):

o Push in and turn the control knob to the

left (counterclockwise) to the desired

setting in the area marked "SINGLE."

To use both elements

(for larger pans):

o Push in and turn the control knob to the

right (clockwise) to the desired setting in

the area marked "DUAL."

NOTE: You can turn the control knob in

either direction to reach "OFF."

The ceramic glass cookfop

Standard Hot surface Halogen

elements indicator elements

lights (some

models)

Cooking on the ceramic glass cooktop

is almost the same as cooking on coil

elements. There are, however, a few

differences:

o The surface cooking area will glow red

when the element is turned on. You will

see the element cycling on and off - even

on the HI setting - to help the area stay at

the temperature setting you choose.

oWiping off the cooktop before and after

each use will help keep the surface free

from stains and give you the most even

heating. See "Cleaning the cooktop" in

the "Caring for Your Range" section.

e Do not cook foods directly on the cooktop.

o Lift pots and pans onto and off of the

cooktop. Sliding pots and pans on the

cooktop could leave marks that are

difficult to remove or could leave

permanent marks.

o Do not cook popcorn that comes in

prepackaged aluminum containers on

the cooktop. The container could leave

aluminum marks on the cooktop that

cannot be removed completely.

e Do not use the cooktop as a cutting board.

o Do not allow anything that could melt,

such as plastic or aluminum foil, to come in

contact with the cooktop while it is hot.

e Dropping a heavy or hard object on the

cooktop could crack it. Be careful when

using heavy skillets and large pots. Do not

store jars or cans above the cooktop.

e Sugary spills and soils can cause pitting.

See "Cleaning the cooktop" in the "Caring

for Your Range" section.

J sing and Caring for Your Cooktop

Cookware tips

e Use the correct cookware to prevent

damage to the surface cooking area,

cooktop, wiring, and surrounding areas.

o if the cookware is too small for the

surface cooking area or the bottom is not

flat, the surface cooking area could stay

glowing red for an extended length of time

causing damage to the range.

o If you start cooking on high, it is impor-

tant to turn the control down to a lower

setting to complete cooking.

e Flat-bottomed cookware, including woks,

canners, and teakettles, will provide better

contact with the surface cooking area and

provide the best cooking results.

oWarped, dented, and ribbed-bottomed

cookware can result in uneven cooking

clue to incomplete contact with the surface

cooking area.

o Cookware that has been designed with

slightly indented bottoms or small expan-

sion channels can be used.

e Choose medium to heavy gauge

(thickness) cookware.

o The pan material (type of metal or

glass) affects how quickly and evenly

the pan heats.

e Check for rough spots on the bottom of

your metal or glass cookware which could

scratch the ceramic glass surface.

e Make sure the bottoms of pots and pans

are clean and dry before using them. Food

and water particles left on the bottoms can

leave deposits on the cooktop when it is

heated.

Home canning information

o Use flat-bottomed canner/pan.

Canners with rippled or ridged bottoms

do not allow good contact with the

surface cooking area.

center over

I surface cooking I

o Use the largest surface cooking area

and center the canner/pan on it. A large

diameter canner/pan, if not centered

correctly, can trap heat and cause

damage to the cooktop.

e Do not place your canner/pan on

2 surface cooking areas at the same

time. Too much heat will build up and

damage the cooktop.

e Start with hot water. This reduces the

time the control is set on high. Reduce

the heat setting to the lowest position

needed to keep water boiling.

oWhen canning for long periods of

time, alternate use of the surface

cooking areas between batches to allow

the areas to cool down, or prepare food

in small batches.

o Refer to your canner manual for specific

instructions.

NOTE: Do not leave empty cookware, or

cookware which has boiled dry, on a hot

surface cooking area. The cookware could

overheat, causing damage to the cookware

or surface cooking area.

Energy saving tips

Although the energy used for cooking is

usually a very small percentage of the total

energy used in the home, cooking energy

can be used efficiently. Here are some tips

to help you save energy when using your

cooking product:

Cookfop

e Match the pan to the surface cooking

area size.

e The pan should have a flat bottom,

straight sides, and a well-fitting lid.

o To help shorten your cooking time, use

the least amount of liquid possible.

e Preheat your pots and pans only when

recommended and for the shortest time

possible.

e Start your food on a higher heat setting,

then turn the control to a lower setting to

finish cooking.

o Place a filled pan on the surface cooking

area before turning it on.

Oven

o "Oven peeking" can make cooking

times longer and affect the food quality.

o Rely on a timer to keep track of

cooking time.

* Plan your meals for the most efficient use

of the oven by cooking more than one

food at a time, or baking while the oven

is still hot after cooking a meal.

o it is not necessary to preheat the oven

when broiling or roasting, unless your

recipe recommends doing so.

Caring for your cooktop

Your cooktop is designed for easy care.

However, you need to maintain your

ceramic glass cooktop differently than you

would standard electric open-coil elements.

Foods spilled directly on the cooktop will not

burn off as on open-coil elements. Because

of this, you should keep the surface dust

free and soil free before heating.

Your cooktop has been prepolished at the

factory for improved protection and easier

cleaning. The Cooktop Polishing Creme

included with your range, paper towels or

a sponge, and a single-edge razor blade in

the holder are all you need to clean your

cooktop. For proper cleaning methods, please

review "Cleaning tips" later in this section.

Follow them each time you use your

cooktop. This will ensure you get the best

performance out of your cooktop, as well as

preserve that uniquely elegant look.

NOTE: Let cooktop cool before cleaning.

To avoid damaging the cooktop, follow

these instructions:

e Remove sugar spills and soils from the

cooktop while the surface is still warm to

avoid pitting on the surface.

o Marks from sliding metal pans on the

cooktop are difficult to remove completely.

Use cooktop polishing creme to clean

the area. Several applications may be

necessary.

o Do not use steel wool, plastic cleaning

pads, gritty powdered cleansers, chlorine

bleach, rust remover, ammonia, or glass

cleaning products with ammonia. These

could damage the cooktop surface.

. sing and Caring for Your Cooktop

Cleaning tips

What to use:

, Cooktop Polishing Creme (included

with your range) with paper towel or

clean, damp sponge - This creme has

been developed especially for cleaning

and protecting your cooktop. When using

the creme, follow the instructions on the

container.

, Razor scraper in a holder (not included

with your range) = Use to remove cooked-on

soils from your ceramic glass cooktop. To

avoid scratches, keep the razor blade as flat

against the cooktop as possible. Store

razor blades out of reach of children.

Steps to follow:

1. Most spills can be wiped off easily using

a paper towel or clean, damp sponge as

soon as the Hot Surface Indicator Light

goes off.

2. For stubborn spills, rub Cooktop

Polishing Creme into cooked-on soil

using a paper towel. If some soil remains,

leave some creme on the spot(s) and

follow Step 3.

3. Carefully scrape spots with the razor

scraper.

4. Finish by polishing entire cooktop

with Cooktop Polishing Creme and

a paper towel.

Cooking tips

BaMng/convection baking tips

The hot air must circulate around the pans

in the oven for even heat to reach all parts

of the oven. This results in better baking.

Forbest aircirculation:

e Place the pans so that one is not directly

over the other.

wall or I 1_/"-2" 1_/"-2" I wall or

other _L=,_vl_'_-_-__ other

pan 1(3.7-5cm) (3.7-5cm)1 pan

e For best results, allow 11½to 2 inches

(3.7 to 5 cm) of space around each pan

and between pans and oven walls.

oWhen baking with 1 pan, place pan in the

center of the oven rack.

Rack positions

Your oven has three straight racks and five

rack positions. Rack position 5 is the highest

position, or farthest from the bottom of the

oven. Rack position 1 is the lowest position,

or closest to the bottom of the oven.

e When baking with 2 pans, place pans in

opposite corners of the oven rack.

NOTES:

e "Oven peeking" may cause heat loss,

longer cooking times, and unsatisfactory

baking or roasting results. Rely on your

timer.

e Do not allow pans to touch the heat

sensor on the left wall near the back.

Poor baking may result.

Using and Caring for Your Oven

Baking tips

(Bake pad)

For proper cooking, follow these

guidelines:

e When using 1 rack, pJace the rack so

the top of the food will be centered in

the oven.

e When using more than 1 rack, use the

Convection Bake setting.

o Use only 1 cookie sheet in the oven at

a time when using the Bake setting.

Bakeware tips

e When baking with insulated cookie

sheets or baking pans, place them in the

bottom third of the oven. You may need to

increase the recommended baking times,

so test for aloneness before removing

from the oven.

o When using ovenproof glassware or

dark bakeware, reduce the oven tempera-

ture by 25°F (16°C), but use the same

baking time. Because these pans absorb

heat, producing darker bottom browning

and crispier crusts, place the rack in the

center of the oven. When baking pies and

bread, you can use the temperature

suggested in the recipe.

Rack placement for specific foods:

(For rack positions, see *'Rack positions"

earlier in this section.)

RACK

FOOD POSITION

Frozen pies 2

Angel food and bundt cakes,

most quick breads, yeast 1 or 2

breads, casseroles, meats

Cookies, biscuits, muffins, 2 or 3

cakes, nonfrozen pies

NOTE: For additional baking tips see

"Baking or convection baking" earlier in this

section.

Using aluminum foil in fhe oven

(for thermal baking)

Use aluminum foil to catch spillovers from

pies or casseroles.

e Place the foil on the oven rack below the

rack with the food. Turn foil edges up and

make sure foil is about 1 inch (2.5 cm)

larger all around than the dish holding the

food.

o Do not cover the entire rack with alumi-

num foil. It will reduce air circulation and

cause poor cooking results.

o Do not line oven bottom or entire oven

rack with foil or other liners. It could affect

the quality of your baking.

. singand Caring forYour Oven

Convection baking tips

(Convection Bake pad)

o Do not use aluminum foil when convection

baking. Aluminum foil may block airflow.

e Reduce recommended standard cooking

temperatures by approximately 25°F

(16°C). The cooking times can also be

reduced for most recipes. See recipes and

cooking charts in your convection oven

cookbook for recommended temperatures

and times, or use EASY CONVECT*

Conversion (later in this section).

NOTE: Cooking time may be longer when

you use more than I rack.

o When baking on 2 or 3 racks, use the

Convection Bake setting for more even

results. (You can, however, use only 1 rack

when Convection Baking.)

e To use 3 racks during convection

baking, place one rack in position 5 (the

highest position), another rack in position

1 (the closest to the oven bottom), and the

third rack in position 3. This allows all three

racks to be an equal distance apart for

better baking.

o Stagger cake pans or other cookware in

opposite directions on each rack when

three racks are used.

NOTE: For additional convection baking tips

see "Baking or convection baking" later in

this section.

Roasting tips

e Spatter can be reduced by lining the

bottom of the roasting pan with lightly

crushed aluminum foil.

e Use an accurate meat thermometer or

temperature probe (see "Using the

temperature probe" later in this section) to

determine when meat has reached desired

degree of aloneness. Insert the thermom-

eter or probe into the center of the thickest

portion of the meat or inner thigh or breast

of poultry. For an accurate reading, the tip

of the thermometer or probe should not

touch fat, bone, or gristle.

e After reading the thermometer once,

push it further into the meat _½inch

(1.2 cm) or more and read again. If the

temperature drops, return the meat to the

oven for more cooking.

o Check pork and poultry with a ther-

mometer in 2 to 3 places to ensure

adequate aloneness.

o Poultry and roasts will be easier to

carve if loosely covered with foil and

allowed to stand 10-15 minutes after

removal from the oven.

e You can reduce roasting times and

temperatures for most standard recipes

when using the Convection Roast setting.

See recipe adaption chart or convection

roasting chart in your convection oven

cookbook for recommended roasting

times and temperatures, or use

EASY CONVECT Conversion (later in

this section).

o Use the convection roasting rack on the

broiler pan (both included with your range).

(The convection roasting rack rests on the

broiler pan, not inside it.) The long side of

the rack should be parallel with the oven

door for best heat distribution and airflow.

Timed cooking

The electronic clock/oven control will turn

the oven on and off at times you set, even

when you are not around.

Delayed time cooking is ideal for foods

which do not require a preheated oven,

such as meats and casseroles. Do not use

delayed time cooking for cakes, cookies,

etc. - they will not rise properly. Before

using timed cooking, make sure the clock

is set to the correct time of day. (See the

Before you start the Self-Cleaning cycle,

make sure you:

o Hand-clean the areas shown. They

do not get hot enough during the Self-

Cleaning cycle for soil to burn away.

Use hot water and detergent or a soapy,

steel-wool pad for cleaning.

NOTE: DO NOT clean, move, or bend

the gasket. Poor cleaning, baking, and

roasting may result.

e Remove the broiler pan and grid and

anything else being stored in the oven.

o Wipe out any loose soil or grease. This

will help reduce smoke during the

Self-Cleaning cycle.

e Wipe up food spills containing sugar

as soon as possible after the oven cools

down. When sugar is heated to a high

temperature in the Self-Cleaning cycle,

the high temperature can cause the sugar

to burn and react with the porcelain. This

can cause staining and etching or pitting.

o Remove the oven racks from the oven if

you want them to remain shiny. You can

clean racks in the Self-Cleaning cycle, but

they will discolor and become harder to

slide. If you clean racks in the Self-Cleaning

cycle, place them on the rack guides.

o Heat and odors are normal during the

Self-Cleaning cycle. Keep the kitchen

well-ventilated by opening a window or

by turning on a vent hood or other kitchen

vent during the cycle.

NOTES:

o Do not block the oven vent during the

Self-Cleaning cycle. Air must move freely

for best cleaning results.

e Do not leave plastic utensils on the

How fhe cycle works

The Self-Cleaning cycle uses very high heat

to burn away soil and grease. During the

cycle, the oven gets much hotter than it does

for normal baking or broiling. This high heat ._

breaks up the soil or grease and burns it away.

Your oven is preset for a 31½-hour Self-

Cleaning cycle. However, you can adjust the

cycle time to the amount of soil in your oven.

You can set the cycle anywhere between

21½and 41½hours. (See "Setting the con-

trols" earlier in this section.)

The graph at the right is representative of

a normal, 3½-hour Self-Cleaning cycle. Note

that the heating stops after 3 hours, but it

takes longer for the oven to cool enough to

unlock.
