The ceramic cooking area will glow red when a heating element is on. Some parts of the
cooktop may not glow red when an element is on. This is normal. The cooking area cycles
off and on, even when set to HI to keep the cooktop glass from overheating. It is normal for
the surface of ceramic glass to appear to change color when surface cooking areas are hot.
As the glass cools, it will return to its original color.
IMPORTANT: To avoid permanent damage from pitting or scratching and to maintain the
condition of the cooktop surface, clean the cooktop after each use. Ceramic glass cooktop
cleaner and a cooktop scraper are also recommended for stubborn soils. Do not use
abrasive cleaners, cleaning pads or harsh chemicals for cleaning. All of the items needed to
clean your ceramic glass cooktop are available at most grocery stores. See the “Range
Care” section for additional information.
Make sure the bottoms of pots and pans are clean and dry before using them. Residue
and water can leave deposits when heated.
Avoid storing jars or cans above the cooktop. Dropping a heavy or hard object onto the
cooktop could crack the cooktop.
To avoid damage to the cooktop, do not leave a hot lid on the cooktop. As the cooktop
cools as air can become trapped between the lid and the cooktop, and the ceramic
glass could break when the lid is removed.
For foods containing sugar in any form, clean up all spills as soon as possible. If sugary
spills are allowed to cool down, they can adhere to the cooktop and can cause pitting
and permanent marks.
Allow the cooktop to cool down slightly.
While wearing oven mitts, remove the spill using a scraper while the surface is still
warm.
To avoid scratches, do not slide cookware or bakeware across the cooktop. Aluminum
or copper bottoms and rough finishes on cookware or bakeware could leave scratches
or marks on the cooktop.
Do not cook popcorn in prepackaged aluminum containers on the cooktop. They could
leave aluminum marks that cannot be removed completely.
To avoid damage to the cooktop do not allow objects that could melt such as plastic or
aluminum foil, to touch any part of the entire cooktop.
To avoid damage to the cooktop, do not use the cooktop as a cutting board.
To avoid damage to the cooktop, do not cook foods directly on the cooktop.
Prepare your cooktop before first use
1. If present, remove all packing and literature from the cooktop surface.
2. Clean your glass top. A thorough cleaning with a glass top cleaner is recommended.
3. Place a saucepan of water on each of the front burners and turn them on HI heat for at
least 30 minutes. Turn off the front burners.
4. Place a saucepan of water on each of the rear burners and turn them on HI heat for at
least 30 minutes. Turn off the rear burner.
COOKTOP USE
background
16
NOTES:
This procedure evaporates any protective oils and humidity collected during the
manufacturing process, and enables the electronic control circuits to operate properly.
There may be a slight odor during the first several uses; this is normal and will dissipate.
The cooking surface will hold the heat and remain hot over 20 minutes after the
elements have been turned off.
HEATING ELEMENTS
NOTES:
For fastest boiling with pots 10" (25.4 cm) and larger, use the Even-Heat™ (Triple-ring)
element with all elements set to “Hi.”
For best low heat performance with pans 10" (25.4 cm) and larger, use the Dual-Size
element set to Single Lo.”
For best melting performance with small pans, use the Even-Heat™ element.
HOT SURFACE INDICATOR LIGHT
On ceramic glass cooktops the Hot Surface Indicator lights are located on the glass
cooktop.
The Hot Surface Indicator Lights will glow as long as any cooking area is too hot to touch,
even after the surface cooking area is turned off.
DUAL-RING COOKING ELEMENT
The Dual-Size Cooking Element offers the flexibility to use larger cookware.
Single-size elements can be used in the same way as a regular element.
The dual-size combines both the single and outer element and is recommended for
larger size cookware.
TRIPLE-RING ELEMENT
The Triple-ring Element offers flexibility because it features a wide range of setting.
The High heat option can be used to boil small amounts of liquid quickly. To reduce the
power setting, turn the knob clockwise.
The Melt setting is designed for delicate foods that require low heat, such as when
melting chocolate or holding sauces. Use cookware appropriate in size for the
triple-ring Element.

WARMING ZONE ELEMENT
WARNING
Food Poisoning Hazard
Do not let food sit in oven more than one hour before or after cooking.
Doing so can result in food poisoning or sickness.
Use the Warming Zone element to keep cooked foods warm. One hour is the
recommended maximum time recommended to maintain food quality.
Do not use the Warming Zone element to heat cold foods.
The Warming Zone element can be used alone or when any of the other surface
cooking areas are being used.
The Warming Zone element area will not glow red when cycling on. However, the hot
surface indicator will glow while the Warming Zone element is in use.
Use only cookware recommended for cooktop use.
Cover all foods with a lid or aluminum foil. When warming baked goods allow a small
opening in the cover for moisture to escape.
Do not use plastic wrap to cover food because the plastic wrap may melt.
Use pot holders to remove food.
RECOMMENDED COOKTOP HEATING ELEMENT SETTINGS

To Turn On Any Heating Element:
PUSH DOWN on the knob and TURN in either direction to desired heat setting.
COOKWARE
The choice of pan directly affects the cooking performance (speed and uniformity).
For best results, select pans with the following features.
Flat Base
Use flat-bottomed cookware for best heat conduction and energy efficiency.
Cookware with rounded, warped, ribbed or dented bottoms could cause uneven heating
and poor cooking results.
Determine flatness by placing the straight edge of a ruler across the bottom of the
cookware. While you rotate the ruler, no space or light should be visible between it and
the cookware.
background

HOME CANNING
CAUTION
Food Poisoning Hazard
Safe canning requires that harmful micro organisms are destroyed and that the jars are
sealed completely. When canning foods in a water-bath canner, a gentle but steady boil
must be maintained for the required time. When canning foods in a pressure canner, the
pressure must be maintained for the required time.
After you have adjusted the controls, it is very important to make sure the prescribed boil
or pressure levels are maintained for the required time.
Failure to do so can result in food poisoning or sickness.
background
20
Canning can be performed on a glass smooth top cooking surface or traditional coil
element cooktop.
When canning for long periods, alternate the use of surface cooking areas or elements
between batches. This allows time for the most recently used areas to cool.
Center the canner on the largest surface cooking area or element. On electric cooktops,
canners should not extend more than ½" (1.3 cm) beyond the surface cooking area or
element.
Do not place canner on 2 surface cooking areas or elements at the same time.
On ceramic glass models, use only flat-bottomed canners to avoid damage to the
cooktop and elements.
For more information, contact your local agricultural extension office, or refer to published
home canning guides. Companies that manufacture home canning products can also offer
assistance.

This multi-function oven combines the functions of traditional oven modes with the
functions of modern, fan-assisted convection modes in a single oven. Use the Cooking
Mode control, located on the control panel, to select the oven mode.
IMPORTANT:
During any cycle, the heating elements will turn off when the oven door is opened, and
stay off until the door is closed. To maintain oven temperature, limit door openings during
cooking.
BEFORE USING THE OVEN FOR THE FIRST TIME
1. Close the oven door.
2. Press Bake.
3. Press 500°F (260°C) on the number keypad.
4. Press Start.
NOTE: Allow the oven to operate for 30 minutes with the door closed and no food in
the cavity.
5. ool.
NOTE: Any odor that may be detected during this initial use is due to the evaporation
of substances used to protect the oven during storage.
GENERAL
IMPORTANT: Do not place anything, including dishes, foil and oven trays, on the bottom of
the oven when it is in operation to avoid damaging the enamel.
1. Place bakeware with food on the rack provided with the oven.
2. Close the oven door.
NOTE: The oven cannot be set with the door open.
3. Press the desired oven mode ie. BAKE.
4. Set the oven to the desired temperature.
5. Press START.
OVEN RACKS
The oven racks can be placed in any of the six height positions within the oven.
Oven racks have a stop to keep them from being unintentionally withdrawn fully.
PREHEATING
When beginning a Bake, Convection Bake or Convection Roast cycle, the oven will begin
preheating after Start is pressed. The oven will take approximately 12 to 15 minutes to reach
350°F (177°C) with all of the oven racks provided with your oven inside the oven cavity.
Higher temperatures will take longer to preheat. The preheat cycle rapidly increases the
oven temperature. The actual oven temperature will go above your set temperature to
offset the heat lost when you open the oven door to place the food on the rack. This
ensures that cooking will begin at the proper temperature. Do not open the door while the
OVEN USE
background
22
oven is preheating. When the oven has heated to the set temperature, a tone will sound.
You can then open the door and place food in the oven.
OVEN MODES
BAKE
Baking is cooking with heated air. Both upper and lower elements in the oven are used to
heat the air but no fan is used to circulate the heat.
Follow the recipe or convenience food directions for baking temperature, time and rack
position. Baking time will vary with the temperature of ingredients and the size, shape and
finish of the baking utensil.
The temperature can be set from 170°F (77°C) to 550°F (288°C).
General Guidelines
For best results, bake food on a single rack with at least 1" - 1½" (2.5 - 4 cm) space
between bakeware and oven walls.
Use one rack when selecting the bake mode.
Check for doneness at the minimum time.
Use metal bake ware (with or without a non stick finish), heatproof glass, glass ceramic,
pottery or other utensils suitable for the oven.
When using heatproof glass, reduce temperature by 25°F (15°C) from recommended
temperature.
Use baking sheets with or without sides or jelly roll pans.
Dark metal pans or nonstick coatings will cook faster with more browning. Insulated
bake ware will slightly lengthen the cooking time for most foods.
Do not use aluminum foil or disposable aluminum trays to line any part of the oven. Foil
is an excellent heat insulator and heat will be trapped beneath it. This will alter the
cooking performance and can damage the finish of the oven.
Avoid using the opened door as a shelf to place pans.
See Troubleshooting for tips to Solving Baking Problems.

BROIL
Broiling uses direct radiant heat to cook food. The lower the temperature, the slower the
cooking. Thicker cuts and unevenly shaped pieces of meat, fish and poultry may cook
better at lower broiling temperatures.
NOTES:
Before broiling, position rack according to the Broiling Chart.
For best results, use a two-piece broiler pan with a grid (not provided). It is designed to
drain juices which helps to avoid spatter and smoke.
For proper draining, do not cover the grid with foil. The bottom of the pan may be lined
with aluminum foil for easier cleaning.
Trim excess fat to reduce spattering. Slit the remaining fat on the edges to avoid
curling.
Select HI Broil 550°F (288°C) for most broiling. Select LO Broil 450°F (232°C) for
low-temperature broiling for foods that take longer to cook, such as poultry, to avoid
over browning.
Pull out oven rack to stop position before turning or removing food. Use tongs to turn
food to avoid the loss of juices. Very thin cuts of fish, poultry or meat may not need to
be turned.
After broiling, remove the pan from the oven when removing the food. Drippings will
bake on the pan if left in the heated oven, making cleaning more difficult.

CONVECTION MODES
During convection cooking, the fan provides hot air circulation throughout the oven. The
movement of heated air around the food can help to speed up cooking by penetrating the
cooler outer surfaces. Food cooks more evenly, browning and crisping outer surfaces while
sealing moisture inside.
When the oven is set to the Convection function, the ring element, bake and broil elements,
and the fan operate to heat the oven cavity. If the oven door is opened during convection
cooking or preheating, the fan turns off immediately and the element(s) will turn off after
30 seconds. Once the door is closed, the element(s) will automatically turn on.
background
26
CONVECTION FAN
The convection fan operates during any convection mode. When the oven is operating in
convection mode, the fan will turn off automatically when the door is opened. The
convection fan may run in non-convection modes during the preheat time.
CONVECTION BAKE
Use Convection Bake for single or multiple rack baking. Reduce standard recipe baking
temperature by 25°F (15°C).
For best results, foods should be cooked uncovered, in low-sided pans to take
advantage of the forced air circulation. Use shiny aluminum pans for best results unless
otherwise specified.
Heatproof glass or ceramic can be used. Reduce temperature by another 25°F (15°C)
when using heatproof glass dishes for a total reduction of 50°F (30°C).
Dark metal pans may be used. Note that food may brown faster when using dark metal
bake ware.
The number of racks used is determined by the height of the food to be cooked.
Baked items, for the most part, cook extremely well in convection. Don’t try to convert
recipes such as custards, quiches, pumpkin pie, or cheesecakes, which do not benefit
from the convection-heating process. Use the regular Bake mode for these foods.
Multiple rack cooking for oven meals is
done on rack positions 1, 2, 3 , 4 and 5. All
five positions can be used for cookies,
biscuits and appetizers.
- 2 Rack baking: Use positions 1 and 3.
- 3 rack baking: Use positions 2, 3 and 4
or 1, 3 and 5.
When baking four cake layers at the
same time, stagger pans so that one pan
is not directly above another. For best
results, place cakes on front of upper
rack and back of lower rack. Allow 1" -
1½" (2.5 - 4 cm) air space around pans.

CONVECTION ROAST
When Convection roasting, enter your normal roasting temperature. The roasting time
should be 15-30% less than in conventional cooking. It is not necessary to preheat the oven
for convection roast.
General Guidelines
Do not preheat for Convection Roast.
Roast in a low-sided, uncovered pan.
When roasting whole chickens or turkey, tuck wings behind back and loosely tie legs
with kitchen string.
Use the 2-piece broil pan for roasting uncovered.
Use the probe or a meat thermometer to determine the internal doneness.
Double-check the internal temperature of meat or poultry by inserting meat
thermometer into another position.
Large poultry may need to be covered with foil (and pan roasted) during a portion of
the roasting time to prevent over-browning.
The minimum safe temperature for stuffing in poultry is 165°F (75°C).
After removing the food from the oven, cover loosely with foil for 10 to 15 minutes
before carving if necessary to increase the final foodstuff temperature by 5° to 10°F (3°
to C).

1. Remove shipping materials, tape and film from the range. Keep cardboard bottom under
range. Do not dispose of anything until the installation is complete.
2. Remove oven racks and parts package from oven and shipping materials.
3. To remove cardboard bottom, first take four cardboard corners from the carton. Stack
one cardboard corner on top of another. Repeat with the other two corners. Place them
lengthwise on the floor behind the range to support the range when it is laid on its back.
4. Using two or more people, firmly grasp the range and gently lay it on its back on the
cardboard corners.
5. Remove cardboard bottom.
NOTES:
The leveling legs can be adjusted while the range is on its back.
To place range back up into a standing position, put a sheet of cardboard or hardboard
on the floor in front of range to protect the flooring. Using two or more people, stand
range back up onto the cardboard or hardboard.
STEP 2 - INSTALL ANTI-TIP BRACKET
NOTE: An anti-tip bracket kit is provided with the range.
WARNING: Tip Over Hazard
A child or adult can tip the range and be killed.
Connect anti-tip bracket to rear range foot.
Reconnect the anti-tip bracket, if the range is moved.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death or serious burns to children and
adults.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT completely remove the rear leveling legs. The anti-tip bracket
uses either the right-hand or left hand, rear leveling leg to secure the range to the floor.
1: LOCATE THE BRACKET
Determine the final location of the range before attempting to install the bracket.
1. Place the bracket on the floor with the back edge against the rear wall. If the range does
not reach the rear wall, align the back edge of the bracket with the rear panel of the range
in its final location.
NOTE: If bracket does not touch the rear wall, you MUST screw bracket to FLOOR .

2. Position the side of the bracket against either the left or right cabinet. If there is no
adjacent cabinet, align the edge of the bracket with the side panel of the range in its final
location. If the countertop overhangs the cabinet, offset the bracket from the cabinet by
the amount of overhang.
3. Mark the location for the pair of holes to be used (see illustration above).
NOTE: For FLOOR installation use either Loc A or B. For REAR WALL installation use
Loc C.
2: SECURE THE BRACKET
The bracket must be screwed to either the FLOOR or REAR WALL.
FLOOR Installation:
WOOD FLOOR: Use the screws provided to secure the bracket using the pair of marked
holes (either Loc A or B).
CONCRETE FLOOR: Using a concrete bit, drill a 5/32” pilot hole 2” deep into the
concrete at the center of each of the marked holes (either Loc A or B). Use the screws
provided to secure the bracket into the floor.
REAR WALL Installation: Use the 2 screws provided to secure the bracket using the pair of
marked holes at Loc C. The screws MUST enter into a wood sill plate. If the wall contains
any metal studs or similar materials, then the floor must be used.
3: CHECK THE BRACKET
After installing the bracket, slide the range into its final location. The rear leveling leg must
be fully inserted into the ANTI-TIP bracket as shown in Step 1. To check if the bracket is
installed and engaged properly, look underneath the range to see that the rear leveling leg
is engaged in the bracket. On some models, the storage drawer or kick panel can be
removed for easier inspection. If visual inspection is not possible, slide the range forward,
confirm the anti-tip bracket is securely attached to the floor or wall, and slide the range
back so the leveling leg is under the anti-tip bracket. If the range is pulled from the wall for
any reason, always repeat this procedure to verify the range is properly secured by the
anti-tip bracket.
NOTE: The anti-tip bracket must be PROPERLY INSTALLED and the rear leveling leg must
be FULLY ENGAGED into the bracket to prevent the range from tipping. NEVER remove the
leveling legs. This will prevent the range from being secured to the ANTI-TIP bracket
properly.
