IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS(continued)
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING
YOUR COOKTOP
• Know which knob controls each surface heating unit.
• Use Proper Flame Size--Adjust flame size so it does not
extend beyond the edge of the utensil. The use of under-
sizedutensils will expose a portion of the burner flame to
direct contact and may result in ignition of clothing. Proper
relationship of utensil to flame will also improve efficiency.
• Utensil Handles Should Be Turned Inward and Should
Not Extend Over Adjacent Surface Burners--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 isturned inward, and
does not extend over adjacent surface burners.
• Never Leave Surface Burners Unattended at High
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
surface burner pans, the oven bottom or any other part of
the range. 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 interfere with
heat and air distribution, and combustion. Damage to the
range or personal injury may result.
• Glazed Cooking Utensils--Only certain types of glass,
glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed utensils
aresuitable 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 Burner Covers. If a burner
isaccidentally turned on, the decorative cover will become hot
and possibly melt. You will not be able to see that the burner
ison. Burns wilt occur if the hot covers are touched. Damage
may also be done to the cooktop or burners because the covers
may cause overheating. Air will be blocked from the burner and
cause combustion problems.
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING YOUR
OVEN
• Use Care When Opening the Oven Door or Warmer
Drawer--Stand to the side of the range when opening
the door of a hot oven/warmer drawer. Let hot air or
steam escape before you remove or replace food in the
oven/warmer drawer.
• Keep Oven Vent Ducts Unobstructed. The oven isvented
below the backguard. Touching the surfacesin 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/Warmer Drawer Racks. Always place
racks in desired location while oven is cool. If rack must be
moved while oven ishot, useextreme caution. Use potholders
and grasp the rack with both hands to reposition. Do not let
potholders contact the oven burner flame or interior of the
oven/warmer drawer. Remove all utensils from the rack
before removing rack.
• Do not use the broiler pan without its insert. The broiler
pan and grid allow dripping fat to drain and be kept away
from the high heat of the broiler.
• Do not cover the broiler grid or warmer drawer
with aluminum foil. Exposed fat and grease could
ignite.
• Do not touch a hot light bulb (some models) with a damp
cloth. Doing so could cause the bulb to break. Disconnect
therange or turn off the power to the range before removing
and replacing the light bulb.
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 burner. Exhaustfan ventilation hoods
and grease filters should be kept clean. Do not allow grease to
accumulate. Greasy deposits in the fan could catch fire. Referto
the hood manufacturer's instructions for cleaning.
• Kitchen cleaners/aerosols--Always follow the manufacturer's
recommended directions for use. Be aware that excess residue
from cleaners and aerosols may ignite causing damage and/or
injury.
SELF-CLEANING OVENS:
• Clean in the self-cleaning cycle only the parts of the oven
listed in this owner's guide. Before self-cleaning the oven,
remove the broiler pan and any utensilsstored in the oven.
• Do not clean the oven door gasket. The door gasket is
essential for a good seal. Care should be taken not to rub,
damage or move the gasket.
• Do not use oven cleaners. No oven cleaner or oven liner
protective coating of any kind should be used in or around any
part of the oven.

Installing Burner
Grates
Placethe 4 outer grates on the rangetop first, then position the 2 center grates so
that the interlocking tabs fit over the outer grates as shown below.
Flame Size
Never extend the flame beyond the
outer edge of the utensil. A higher
flame simply wastes heat and energy,
and increasesyour risk of being burned
by the flame.
RIGHT
WRONG
For most cooking, start on the highest control setting and then turn to a lowerone
to complete the process. Use the chart below as a guide for determining proper
flame sizefor various types of cooking. The size and type of utensil used and the
amount of food being cooked will influence the setting needed for cooking.
For deep fat frying, use a thermometer and adjust the surface control knob
accordingly. If the fat istoo cool, the food will absorb the fat and be greasy. If the
fat istoo hot, the food will brown so quickly that the center will be undercooked.
Donot attempt to deep fat fry too much food at once asthe food will neither brown
nor cook properly.
*Flame Size Type of Cooking
High Flame Start most foods; bring water to a boil; pan broiling
Medium Flame Maintain a slow boil; thicken sauces, gravies; steam
Low Flame Keep foods cooking; poach; stew
*These settings are based on using medium-weight aluminum pans with lids. Settings may vary
when using other types of pans.
Proper Burner
Adjustments
The color of the flame isthe keyto proper burner adjustment. A good flame isclear,
blue and hardly visible in a well-lighted room. Eachcone of flame should be steady
and sharply defined. Adjust or clean burner if flame is yellow-orange. To clean
burner, see instructionsunder General Cleaning.
Surface Burners
This range isequipped with 2 different sized sealed burners. The amount and type
of food being prepared, and the sizeand type of utensils being used will determine
the suitability of the surface burner used.
The larger surface burner isbest utilized when bringing large quantities of liquid to
temperature, preparing larger quantities of food, or using larger, heavier utensils.
The smaller surface burner is better utilized when preparing smaller quantities of
food, or food items which have a more delicate consistency.
Setting Surface
Controls
Eachburner lights automatically from an electric ignitor each time a control knob
is turned to the LITEposition.
To operate the surface burner:
1. Placecooking utensil on burner.
2. Pushin and turn the Surface Contro! knob to LITE.Note: All electronic
ignitors will clickat the sametime. However, only the burner you are turning

3. Visually check that the burner has lit.
4. After the burner lights, turn the control knob to the desired flame size.The
control knobs do not haveto be set at a particular mark. Use the guides and
adjust the flame as needed. DO NOT cook with the control knob in the LITE
position. (Theelectronic ignitor will continue to click if left in the LITEposition.)
Inthe event of an electrical power outage, the surface burners can be lit manually.
To light a surface burner, hold a lit match to the burner head, then slowly turn the
surface control knob to LITE.Usecaution when lighting surface burners manually.
_Do not place 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 wood spoons could catch
fire if placed too close to a flame.

Oven Cleaning
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.
DO NOT line the oven
walls, racks, bottom or any other
part of the range with aluminum
foil. Doing so will destroy heat
distribution, produce poor baking
results and cause permanent damage
to the oven interior (aluminum foil

SELF-CLEANINGOVEN
Self-Cleaning Oven
A self-cleaning oven cleans itself with high temperatures (well above cooking
temperatures) which eliminate soil completely or reduce it to a fine powdered
ash you can wipe away with a damp cloth.
1 Adhere to the following cleaning precautions:
• Allow the oven to cool before precleaning.
• Wear rubber gloves when precleaning and while wiping up the residue after
the self-clean cycle.
• DO NOTuse 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 isessentialfor a good seal. Care should be taken not to rub, damage
or remove the gasket.
• DO NOT useany cleaning materials on the oven door gasket. Doing socould
cause damage.
2. Remove the broiler pan and insert, all utensils and any aluminum
foil. These items cannot withstand high cleaning temperatures.
3. Oven racksmay be left in the oven or may be removed. If they go through the
clean cycletheir colorwill turn slightly blue and the finish will be dull. After the
cycleiscompleteand the oven hascooled, rubthe sides of the rackswith wax
paper or a clothcontainingasma!lamount of baby oil or saladoil (this will make
the racks glide easier into the rackposition).
4. Removeany excessspilloversinthe oven cavitybefore starting the self-cleaning
cycle. To clean,use hot, soapywater and a cloth. Large spilloverscan cause
heavysmokeor fire when subjectedto hightemperatures. DO NOTallow food
spillswith a highsugaroracid content(such asmilk, tomatoes, sauerkraut,fruit
juices or pie filling) to remainon the surfaceasthey may causea dull spot even
after cleaning.
5. Clean anysoil from the ovenframe, the door liner outsidethe ovendoor gasket
and the small area at the front center of the oven bottom. These areas heat
sufficientlyto burn soilon. Clean with soap and water.
Stopping or Interrupting a Self-Cleaning Cycle
If it becomes necessaryto stop or interrupt a self-cleaning cycle due to excessive
smoke or fire:
1. Pushthe CANCELbutton.
2. Once the oven hascooled down for 1 HOURand the word "LOCKED" shown
in the display hasgone out, then the oven door can be opened.
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.

How to Clean
Use hot, soapy water and a cloth. Dry with a clean cloth.
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.
Before cleaning the controlpanel, 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. Rinse with a clean water and a dishcloth. Cover stubborn spots with an
ammonia-soaked paper towel for 30 to 40 minutes. Rinse. Be sure to squeeze excess water
from the cloth before wiping the panel; especially when wiping around the controls. Excess
water in or around the controls may cause damage to the appliance. Cleaners made
especially for stainless steel such as Stainless Steel Magic, trademark of Magic American
Corp., or similar products 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. To replace knobs after cleaning, line up the flat sides of both the knob
and the shaft; then push the knob into place.
Clean in the dishwasher and dry upon removal. If soils are not removed, follow the cooktop
cleaning instructions below.
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. Remove all cleaners
or the porcelain may become damaged during future heating. DO NOT use spray oven
cleaners on the rangetop.
Oven racks may be removed or left in the oven during the self-clean cycle for cleaning. If
removed, clean by using a mild, abrasive cleaner following manufacturer's instructions.
Rinse with clean water and dry.
Ifthe racks are cleaned in the self-clean cycle, their color will turn slightly blue and the finish
will be dull. After the self-clean cycle is complete, 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 into the rack positions).
The holes in the burners of your range must be kept clean at all times for proper ignition
and a complete, even flame. Clean the burners routinely and especially after bad spillovers
which could clog these holes.
To remove, cleanand replacethe entire burner cap assembly, follow the instructions under
General Cleaning. DO NOT put burner parts in the dishwasher.
To clean oven door, wash with hot, soapy water and a clean cloth. DO NOT immerse the
door in water.
