important Safety instructions
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USINGYOUR
COOKTOP
•Know 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 Rernovable 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.
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USINGYOUR
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.
+ 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 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.
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.
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.
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 filter. Follow manufacturer's
instructions for cleaning.
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.

Before Setting Surface Controls
• General Cooktop Information
• About Radiant Surface Elements
• Locations of the Radiant Surface Elements and Controls
About the Ceramic Glass Cooktop
The ceramic cooktop has radiant surface elements located below the surface of
the glass. The design of the ceramic cooktop outlines the area of the surface
element underneath (See Figs. 1 & 2).
Heat is transferred up through the surface of the cooktop to the cookware. The
type and size and condition of the cookware, the number of surface elements in
use and their settings, are all factors that will affect the amount of heat that will
spread to areas beyond the surface elements. Note: The areas surrounding
the elements may become hot enough to cause burns.
About the Radiant Surface Elements
The element temperature rises gradually and evenly. As the temperature rises, the
element will glow red. To maintain the selected setting, the element will cycle on
and off. The heating element retains enough heat to provide a uniform and
consistent heat during the off cycle. For efficient cooking, turn off the element
several minutes before cooking is complete. This will allow any remaining heat to
complete the cooking process.
ii iii _I
ii iii_ I
Fig. 1
Fig. 2
NOTE: Radiant elements have a limiter that allows the element to cycle on and off, even at the HI setting. This helps to }.........
prevent damage to the ceramic smoothtop. Cycling at the HI setting is normal and can occur if the cookware is too small
for the radiant element or if the pan bottom is not flat. Refer to page 15 for more details about using proper cookware on the
cooktop. ....
Locations of the Radiant
Surface Elements and
Controls
Your range is equipped with radiant
surface burners the have eight
different wattage ratings. The ability
to heat food quicker and in larger
volumes increases as the element
wattage increases.
The radiant surface elements are
located on the cooktop as follows
(refer to Fig. 3); a 6 inch radiant
element located at the right rear
position; a 6 /9/12 inch Triple
radiant element located at the right
front position (See page 12); a
Warmer Zone radiant element at
the center rear position (See page
14); and two 8 inch radiant elements
located at both the left front and rear
positions. Located between the left
front and rear elements is a Bridge
radiant element (See page 13).

Setting Surface Controls
• Electronic Surface Element Controls (ESEC)
• Available ESEC Display Settings
• Hot Surface Indicator Lights
• ESEC Lockout Feature (- -)
Cooktop Sabbath Day Feature and Message (Sb)
The Electronic Surface Element Control (ESEC)
The Electronic Surface Element Control ("ESEC') feature provides a digital
display of the radiant surface elements 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.
In addition your range includes shared radiant element touch pad settings.
The "Bridge" element combinations and Triple radiant element settings are
also shown in the ESEC display windows.
The available ESEC Window Display Settings
The ESEC control will display heat levels ranging from Hi (Fig. 1) to Lo (Fig.
6) and OFF (Fig. 7) that will display in the ESEC windows. The settings
between 9.0 (Fig. 2) and 3.0 (Fig. 3) decrease or increase in increments of .5
(1/2). The settings between 3.0 (Figs. 3 & 4) and 1.0 (Fig. 5) are Simmer
settings which decrease or increase in increments of .2 to Lo ( Fig. 6; lowest
Simmer setting) for more precise settings at lower heat levels. Use the
Recommended Surface Setting Chart (See page 11, Fig. 1) to determine the
correct setting for the kind of food you are preparing.
Hot Surface Indicator Lights
After using any of the radiant element positions the cooktop will become very
hot. After turning any of these elements OFF, the cooktop will remain HOT for
some time. The backguard control monitors the temperature for 5 positions on
the cooktop. The "Hot Surface" indicator light (Fig. 8) will glow whenever any
of the element positions becomes HOT. The Hot Surface indicator light will
remain ON while hot and turn OFF once the cooktop has cooled sufficiently
(Fig. 9).
ESEC PF message
The ESEC will display the PF message whenever there has been a power
interruption to the appliance. PF will appear in the ESEC display windows as
shown in Fig. 1O. To clear the PF message touch any ON/OFF ESEC control
pad to reset and be sure to reset the clock with the correct time of day if
necessary. If the PF displays again repeat these steps.

Cooktop Sabbath Day Feature and (Sb) Message
The ESEC will display the Sb messages whenever the Sabbath Day feature is active (Fig. 11). When
activated, the Sabbath Day Feature works for both the oven and cooktop together. Once the Sabbath
Day Feature is active, changes to the heat levels for the cooktop elements will not show in the
displays. The cooktop will react slower to heat level changes. To set the Sabbath Day feature see the
complete instructions on page 32.
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 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.

The purpose of the Warmer Zone is to keep hot cooked foods at
serving temperature. Use the Warmer Zone to keep cooked foods hot
such as; vegetables, gravies, casseroles, soups, stews, breads,
pastries and oven-safe dinner plates. Always start with hot food. It is
not recommended to heat cold food on the Warmer Zone.
All food placed on the Warmer Zone should be covered with a lid to
maintain moisture. For best results when warming pastries or
breads, the cover should have an opening to allow moisture to
escape. Do not use plastic wrap or aluminum foil to cover food.
Plastic or aluminum foil may melt onto the cooktop.
Use only plates, utensils and cookware recommended for oven and
cooktop use on the Warmer Zone.
Warmer Zone Temperature Selection
Refer to the Warmer Zone table for recommended heating levels
(See Fig. 1). If a particular food is not listed, start with the medium
level, and adjust as needed. Most foods can be kept at serving

Surface Cooking
Using Proper Cookware
Cookware Material Types
Arranging Warmer Drawer Racks
Using proper cookware
The size and type of cookware used will influence the
setting needed for best cooking results. Cookware
should have flat bottoms that make good contact with
the entire surface heating element (See Fig. 2). Check
for flatness by rotating a ruler across the bottom of the
cookware (See Fig. 1).
Be sure to follow the _.
recommendations for
using proper
cookware as
illustrated.

The cookware material determines how evenly and quickly heat is transferred from the surface element to the pan bottom.
The most popular materials available are:
ALUMINUM - Excellent heat conductor. Some types of food will cause it to darken (Anodized aluminum cookware resists
staining & pitting). {f aluminum pans slide across the ceramic cooktop, they may leave metal marks which will resemble
scratches. Remove these marks immediately.
COPPER - Excellent heat conductor but discolors easily. May leave metal marks on ceramic glass (see Aluminum above).
STAINLESS STEEL - Slow heat conductor with uneven cooking results. Is durable, easy to clean and resists staining.
CAST }RON - A poor heat conductor however will retain heat very well. Cooks evenly once cooking temperature is reached.
Not recommended for use on ceramic cooktops.
PORCELAIN-ENAMEL on METAL- Heating characteristics will vary depending on base material. Porcelain-enamel coating
must be smooth to avoid scratching ceramic cooktops.
GLASS - Slow heat conductor. Not recommended for ceramic cooktop surfaces because it may scratch the glass.
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.

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 of the moisture to
escape.
For Moist Heat: Slide the humidity control knob in the direction of (More) > (See Fig. 1). 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.
For Dry Heat: Slide the humidity control knob in the direction of (Less) < (See Fig. 2). This allows more of the moist heat
to escape and provides a dryer environment for the food in the Warmer Drawer.
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.

• Setting Broil (Electric Range)
The _Broil_ pad controls the Broil featu re. When broiling, heat radiates downward from the oven broiler for even coverage.
The Broil feature is preset to start broiling at 550°F, however, the Broil feature temperature may be set at any temperature
between 400°F and 550°F.
The broil pan and broil pan insert used together allows dripping grease to drain and be kept away from the high heat of the
oven broiler. DO NOT use the broil pan without the insert (See Fig. 6). DO NOT cover the oven racks with aluminum
foil. The exposed grease could catch fire.
Should an oven fire occur, leave the oven door closed and turn the oven OFF. If the fire continues, throw
baking soda on the fire or use a fire extinguisher. DO NOT put water or flour on the fire. Flour may be explosive and water
can cause a grease fire to spread and cause personal injury.
INSTRUCTIONS PRESS DISPLAY
To set the oven to broil at the default setting (550°F):
t. Place the broiler pan insert on the broiler pan. Then place the
food on the broiler pan insert. DO NOT use the broiler pan
without the insert.
2. Arrange the interior oven rack and place the broiler pan on the
rack. Be sure to center the broiler pan directly under the broiler
element. Make sure the oven door is in the broil stop
position (See Fig. 5). Preheat the oven for 4 minutes.
3. Press __Broil_.(See Fig. 1).

second side. Season and serve. Note: Always pull the rack out
to the stop position before turning or removing food.
7. To cancel broiling or if finished broiling press Q (See Fig. 3).
Recommended Broiling Times and Searing Grill
Use the following table for approximate broiling times, increase or
decrease broiling times, or move the broiling pan to a different rack
position to suit for doneness. If the food you are broiling is not listed
in the table, follow the instructions provided in your cookbook and
watch the item closely. Use the Searing Grill for meats and steaks if
desired. Before placing the meat, be sure to heat the Searing Grill
using Broil for 10 minutes. Cook times should be reduced 1-2
minutes per side when cooking with the Searing Grill. Place Searing

Use the Convection Bake feature when cooking speed is desired. The
oven can be programmed for Convection Bake at any temperature
between 170° F to 77 ° C. Air circulation of Convection Cooking
Fig. 1
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 ti,_
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 racks). Place in positions 1,3 and 6 (for 3 racks). Refer to Fig. 1.

START pad. This will insure the oven remains ON even if the attempt to set the oven temperature was lower or higher than
the oven control can accept. If the oven temperature is set incorrectly, the oven temperature will default to 170°F or 550°F.
Try to set the desired oven temperature again.
Should you experience a power failure or interruption, the oven will shut off. When power is returned the oven will not turn
back on automatically. The oven will remember that it is set for the Sabbath and the food may be safely removed from the
oven while still in the Sabbath feature, however the oven cannot be turned back on until after the Sabbath/Holidays. After

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.

General Care & Cleaning
• Cooktop Cleaning & Maintenance
• Cleaning Recommendations for the Ceramic Glass Cooktop
Cooktop Cleaning & Maintenance
Consistent and propercleaning 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). Buff with 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 future use.
Cookware (cast iron, metal, ceramic or glass) with rough bottoms
can mark or scratch the cooktop surface. Do not slide anything
metal or glass across the cooktop. Do not use your cooktop as a
cutting board or work surface in the kitchen. Do not cook foods
directly on the cooktop surface without a pan. Do not drop heavy or
hard objects on the glass cooktop, 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 CookTop® 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.
