IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION.

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.

WARNING!

For your safety, the information in this manual must be followed to minimize the risk of fire,

electric shock, or to prevent property damage, personal injury, or loss of life.

All ranges can tip and injury could result.

To prevent accidental tipping of the range, attach it to the wall and floor by installing the Anti-

Tip device supplied.

Check if the device is installed and engaged properly. Make sure the chain fits securely in

the slot of the bracket.

If you pull the range out from the wall for any reason, make sure the device is properly engaged

when you push the range back against the wall. If it is not, there is a possible risk of the range

tipping over and causing injury if you or a child stand, sit or lean on an open door.

Please refer to the Anti-Tip device information in this manual. Failure to take this precaution

could result in tipping of the range and injury.

WARNING

ANTI-TIP DEVICE

When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should be followed, including

the following:

■ Use this appliance only for its intended

purpose as described in this Owner’s

Manual.

■ Be sure your appliance is properly installed

and grounded by a qualified installer in

accordance with the provided installation

instructions.

■ Have the installer show you the location of

the circuit breaker or fuse. Mark it for easy

reference.

■ Do not attempt to repair or replace any part

of your range unless it is specifically

recommended in this manual. All other

servicing should be referred to a qualified

technician.

■ Teach children not to play with the controls

or any other part of the range.

■ Before performing any service, disconnect

the range power supply at the household

distribution panel by removing the fuse or

switching off the circuit breaker.

■ Do not allow anyone to climb, stand or hang

on the door, storage drawer or cooktop.

They could damage the range and even tip it

over, causing severe personal injury.

■ Do not store or use combustible materials,

gasoline or other flammable vapors and

liquids in the vicinity of this or any other

appliance.

■ Keep the hood and grease filters clean

to maintain good venting and to avoid

grease fires.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE

The California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act requires the Governor of

California to publish a list of substances known to the state to cause cancer, birth defects or

other reproductive harm, and requires businesses to warn customers of potential exposure to

such substances.

The fiberglass insulation in self-clean ovens gives off a very small amount of carbon monoxide

during the cleaning cycle. Exposure can be minimized by venting with an open window or using

a ventilation fan or hood.

on the range to reach items could be

seriously injured.

■ Always keep dish towels, dish cloths, pot

holders and other linens a safe distance

from your range.

■ Always keep wooden and plastic utensils

and canned food a safe distance from

your range.

■ Always keep combustible wall coverings,

curtains or drapes a safe distance from

your range.

■ Never wear loose-fitting or hanging

garments while using the appliance. Be

careful when reaching for items stored

over the range. Flammable material could

be ignited if brought in contact with hot

surface units or heating elements and

may cause severe burns.

■ For your safety, never use your appliance

for warming or heating the room.

■ Use only dry pot holders—moist or damp

pot holders on hot surfaces may result in

burns from steam. Do not let pot holders

touch hot surface units or heating elements.

Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth in

place of potholders.

■ Do not use water on grease fires. Never pick

up a flaming pan. Turn the controls off.

Smother a flaming pan on a surface unit by

covering the pan completely with a well-

fitting lid, cookie sheet or flat tray. Use a

multi-purpose dry chemical or foam-type

fire extinguisher.

■ Flaming grease outside a pan can be put

out by covering it with baking soda or, if

available, by using a multi-purpose dry

chemical or foam-type fire extinguisher.

■ Flame in the oven can be smothered

completely by closing the oven door and

turning the oven off or by using a multi-

purpose dry chemical or foam-type fire

extinguisher.

■ Do not touch the surface units, the heating

elements or the interior surface of the oven.

These surfaces may be hot enough to burn

even though they are dark in color. During

and after use, do not touch, or let clothing

or other flammable materials contact, the

surface units, areas nearby the surface units

or any interior area of the oven; allow

sufficient time for cooling first.

■ Potentially hot surfaces include the cooktop,

areas facing the cooktop, oven vent opening,

surfaces near the opening, crevices around

the oven door and metal trim parts above

the door.

■

REMEMBER:

The inside surface of the oven

may be hot when the door is opened.

WARNING!

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Cook meat and poultry thoroughly—meat to at least an INTERNAL temperature of 160°F. and poultry

to at least an INTERNAL temperature of 180°F. Cooking to these temperatures usually protects against

foodborne illness.

COOK MEAT AND POULTRY THOROUGHLY…

Safety Instructions Operating Instructions Care and Cleaning Troubleshooting Tips Customer Service

■ Stand away from the range when opening

the oven door. Hot air or steam which

escapes can cause burns to hands, face

and/or eyes.

■ Do not heat unopened food containers.

Pressure could build up and the container

could burst, causing an injury.

■ Keep the oven vent unobstructed.

■ Keep the oven free from grease buildup.

■ Place the oven shelf in the desired position

while the oven is cool. If shelves must be

handled when hot, do not let pot holder

contact the heating elements.

■ Pulling out the shelf to the stop-lock is a

convenience in lifting heavy foods. It is also

a precaution against burns from touching

hot surfaces of the door or oven walls.

■ When using cooking or roasting bags in the

oven, follow the manufacturer’s directions.

■ Do not use the oven to dry newspapers.

If overheated, they can catch on fire.

■ Do not use the oven for a storage area.

Items stored in an oven can ignite.

■ Do not leave paper products, cooking

utensils or food in the oven when not

in use.

■ After broiling, always take the broiler pan

out of the range and clean it. Leftover grease

in the broiler pan can catch on fire the next

time you use the pan.

■ Do not use aluminum foil to line oven

bottoms, except as suggested in this manual.

Improper installation of aluminum foil may

result in a risk of electric shock or fire.

OVEN

■ Do not clean the door gasket. The door

gasket is essential for a good seal. Care

should be taken not to rub, damage or

move the gasket.

■ Clean only parts listed in this Owner’s

Manual.

■ 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. Residue from oven cleaners

will damage the inside of the oven when the

self-clean cycle is used.

■ Before self-cleaning the oven, remove the

broiler pan, grid and other cookware.

■ Be sure to wipe up excess spillage before

starting the self-cleaning operation.

■ If the self-cleaning mode malfunctions,

turn the oven off and disconnect the power

supply. Have it serviced by a qualified

technician.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION.

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.

WARNING!

RADIANT SURFACE UNITS

Use proper pan size—select cookware having flat bottoms large enough to cover the surface

unit heating element. The use of undersized cookware will expose a portion of the surface unit

to direct contact and may result in ignition of clothing. Proper relationship of cookware to

surface unit will also improve efficiency.

■ Never leave the surface units unattended at

high heat settings. Boilovers cause smoking

and greasy spillovers that may catch on fire.

■ Only certain types of glass, glass ⁄ceramic,

earthenware or other glazed containers

are suitable for cooktop service; others

may break because of the sudden change

in temperature.

■ To minimize the possibility of burns,

ignition of flammable materials and spillage,

the handle of a container should be turned

toward the center of the range without

extending over nearby surface units.

■ Always turn the surface units off before

removing cookware.

■ When preparing flaming foods under the

hood, turn the fan on.

■ Keep an eye on foods being fried at high or

medium high heat settings.

■ Foods for frying should be as dry as possible.

Frost on frozen foods or moisture on fresh

foods can cause hot fat to bubble up and

over the sides of the pan.

■ Use little fat for effective shallow or deep fat

frying. Filling the pan too full of fat can

cause spillovers when food is added.

■ If a combination of oils or fats will be used in

frying, stir together before heating, or as fats

melt slowly.

■ Always heat fat slowly, and watch as it heats.

■ Use a deep fat thermometer whenever

possible to prevent overheating fat beyond

the smoking point.

■ Carefully watch for spillovers or overheating

of foods when frying at high or medium high

temperatures.

■ Never try to move a pan of hot fat, especially

a deep fat fryer. Wait until the fat is cool.

■ Do not allow water, other liquids or grease

to remain on the cooktop or the control

panel.

Safety Instructions Operating Instructions Care and Cleaning Troubleshooting Tips Customer Service

Use care when touching the cooktop. The glass surface of the cooktop will retain heat after the

controls have been turned off.

RADIANT SURFACE UNITS

■ Avoid scratching the glass cooktop. The

cooktop can be scratched with items such as

sharp instruments, rings or other jewelry and

rivets on clothing.

■ Do not operate the radiant surface units if

the glass is broken. Spillovers or cleaning

solution may penetrate a broken cooktop

and create a risk of electrical shock. Contact

a qualified technician immediately should

your glass cooktop become broken.

■ Never use the glass cooktop surface as a

cutting board.

■ Do not place or store items that can melt or

catch fire on the glass cooktop, even when it

is not being used.

■ Be careful when placing spoons or other

stirring utensils on glass cooktop surface

when it is in use. They may become hot and

could cause burns.

■ Do not stand on the glass cooktop. The weight

may cause the top to break.

■ Avoid heating an empty pan. Doing so may

damage the cooktop and the pan.

■ Clean the cooktop with caution. If a wet

sponge or cloth is used to wipe spills on a hot

surface unit, be careful to avoid steam burns.

Some cleaners can produce noxious fumes if

applied to a hot surface.

NOTE:

We recommend that you avoid wiping

any surface unit areas until they have cooled

and the indicator light has gone off. Sugar

spills are the exception to this. Please see the

Cleaning the glass cooktop

section.

■ When the cooktop is cool, use only the

recommended cleaning cream to clean

the cooktop.

■ To avoid possible damage to the cooking

surface, do not apply cleaning cream to

the glass surface when it is hot.

■ After cleaning, use a dry cloth or paper towel

to remove all cleaning cream residue.

■ Read and follow all instructions and warnings

on the cleaning cream labels.

Read and follow this Safety Information carefully.

About the radiant surface units…

The radiant cooktop features heating

units beneath a smooth glass surface.

NOTE: A slight odor is normal when a new

cooktop is used for the first time. It is caused

by the heating of new parts and insulating

materials and will disappear in a short time.

The surface unit will cycle on and off to

maintain your selected control setting.

It is safe to place hot cookware on the

glass surface even when the cooktop

is cool.

Even after the surface units are turned

off, the glass cooktop retains enough

heat to continue cooking. To avoid

over-cooking, remove pans from the

surface units when the food is cooked.

Avoid placing anything on the surface

unit until it has cooled completely.

■

Before you use the cooktop for the

first time, clean it with cleaning cream.

This helps protect the top and makes

clean-up easier.

■

Water stains (mineral deposits) are

removable using the cleaning cream or

full strength white vinegar.

■

Use of window cleaner may leave an

iridescent film on the cooktop. The cleaning

cream will remove this discoloration.

■

Don’t store heavy items above the cooktop.

If they drop onto the cooktop, they can

cause damage.

■

Do not use the cooktop surface as a

cutting board.

the glass—the glass is scratch

resistant, not scratch proof.

Safety InstructionsOperating InstructionsCare and CleaningTroubleshooting TipsCustomer Service

Selecting types of cookware.

The following information will help you choose cookware which will give good performance on glass cooktops.

Stainless Steel:

recommended

Aluminum:

heavy weight recommended

Good conductivity. Aluminum

residues sometimes appear as scratches

on the cooktop, but can be removed if

cleaned immediately. Because of its low

melting point, thin weight aluminum

should not be used.

Copper Bottom:

recommended

Copper may leave residues which can

appear as scratches. The residues can

be removed, as long as the cooktop is

cleaned immediately. However, do not

let these pots boil dry. Overheated

metal can bond to glass cooktops. An

overheated copper bottom pot will

leave a residue that will permanently

stain the cooktop if not removed

immediately.

Porcelain Enamel Covered

Cast Iron:

recommended

As long as the cookware is covered

completely with porcelain enamel, this

cookware is recommended. Caution is

recommended for cast iron cookware

that is not completely covered with

smooth porcelain enamel, as it may

scratch the glass ceramic cooktop.

Glass-ceramic:

usable, but not recommended

Poor performance. May scratch the

surface.

Stoneware:

usable, but not recommended

Poor performance. May scratch the

surface.

Home Canning Tips:

Be sure the canner is centered over

the surface unit.

Make sure the canner is flat on the

bottom.

Use recipes and procedures from

reputable sources. These are available

from manufacturers such as Ball® and

Kerr® and the department of

Agriculture Extension Service.

To prevent burns from steam or heat,

use caution when canning.

Check pans for flat bottoms by

using a straight edge.

Pans with rounded, curved, ridged

or warped bottoms are not

recommended.

Use only flat-bottomed woks.

Wok Cooking

We recommend that you use only a flat-

bottomed wok. They are available at your

local retail store.

Do not use woks that have support

rings.

Placing the ring over the surface unit

will cause a build-up of heat that will

damage the cooktop.

Do not use round bottom woks. You

could be seriously burned if the wok

tipped over.

To avoid possible burns, place the shelves in the desired position before you turn the oven on.

Before you begin…

The shelves have stop-locks, so that

when placed correctly on the supports,

they will stop before coming

completely out, and will not tilt.

When placing and removing cookware,

pull the shelf out until it stops.

To remove a shelf,

pull it toward you,

tilt the front end up and pull it out.

To replace,

place the end of the shelf

(stop-locks) on the support, tilt up the

front and push the shelf in.

The oven has 4 shelf positions.

How to Set the Oven for Baking or Roasting

Preheating and Pan Placement

Preheat the oven if the recipe calls for

it. Preheating is necessary for good

results when baking cakes, cookies,

pastry and breads.

To preheat, set the oven at the correct

temperature. The control will beep when the

oven is preheated and the display will show

your set temperature. This will take

approximately 10–15 minutes.

Baking results will be better if baking

pans are centered in the oven as much

as possible. If baking with more than

one pan, place the pans so each has at

least 1″ to 1

⁄2″ of air space around it.

If baking four cake layers at the same

time, place two layers on rack B and

two layers on rack D. Stagger pans on

the rack so one is not directly above

the other.

Aluminum Foil

You can use aluminum foil to line the

broiler pan and broiler grid. However,

you must mold the foil tightly to the

grid and cut slits in it just like the grid.

Without the slits, the foil will prevent

fat and meat juices from draining into

the broiler pan. The juices could

become hot enough to catch on fire.

If you do not cut the slits, you are

essentially frying, not broiling.

Do not use aluminum foil on the bottom of

the oven.

Never entirely cover a shelf with

aluminum foil. This will disturb the

heat circulation and result in poor

baking.

A smaller sheet of foil may be used to

catch a spillover by placing it on a lower

shelf several inches below the food.

Cut slits in the foil just like the grid.

Using the convection oven.

The convection oven fan shuts off when the oven door is opened. DO NOT leave the door open for long periods

of time while using convection cooking or you may shorten the life of the convection heating element.

Adapting Recipes…

You can use your favorite recipes in the

convection oven.

When baking, reduce baking

temperature by 25°F.

No need to preheat when cooking

longer than 15 minutes.

■

Use pan size recommended.

■

Some package instructions for frozen

casseroles or main dishes have been

developed using commercial convection

ovens. For best results in this oven,

preheat the oven and use the temperature

on the package.

To help you understand the difference

between convection bake and roast and

traditional bake and roast, here are

some general guidelines.

Convection Bake

■

Ideal for evenly browned baked foods

cooked on multiple shelves.

■

Good for large quantities of baked foods.

■

Good results with cookies, biscuits,

brownies, cupcakes, cream puffs, sweet

rolls, angel food cake and bread.

Heat comes from the heating element

in the rear of the oven. The convection

fan circulates the heated air evenly

over and around the food. Preheating

is not necessary with foods having a

bake time of over 15 minutes.

Convection Roast

■

Good for large tender cuts of meat,

uncovered.

Heat comes from the top heating

element. The convection fan circulates

the heated air evenly over and around

the food. Meat and poultry are

browned on all sides as if they were

cooked on a rotisserie. Using the

roasting rack provided, heated air will

be circulated over, under and around

the food being roasted. The heated air

seals in juices quickly for a moist and

tender product while, at the same time,

creating a rich golden brown exterior.

Roasts or poultry should be cooked on the

lowest shelf position (A) on a shelf.

When you are convection roasting it is

important that you use the broiler pan

and grid and the special roasting rack

for best convection roasting results.

The pan is used to catch grease spills

and the grid is used to prevent grease

spatters. Place the meat on the special

roasting rack. The rack holds the meat.

The rack allows the heated air to

circulate under the meat and increase

browning on the underside of the meat

or poultry.

■ Place the shelf in the lowest shelf

position (A).

■ Place the grid on the broiler pan

and put the roasting rack over them

making sure the posts on the

roasting rack fit into the holes in

the broiler pan.

In a convection oven, a fan circulates

hot air over, under and around the

food. This circulating hot air is evenly

distributed throughout the oven

cavity. As a result, foods are evenly

cooked and browned—often in less

time than with regular heat.

Roasting rack

Grid

Broiler pan

Post

Using the convection oven.

Cookware for Convection Cooking

Before using your convection oven,

check to see if your cookware leaves

room for air circulation in the oven. If

you are baking with several pans, leave

space between them. Also, be sure the

pans do not touch each other or the

walls of the oven.

Paper and Plastic

Heat-resistant paper and plastic

containers that are recommended

for use in regular ovens can be used in

convection ovens. Plastic cookware that

is heat-resistant to temperatures of

400°F. can also be used, when oven is

below 400°F.

Metal and Glass

Any type of cookware will work in your

convection oven. However, metal pans

heat the fastest and are recommended

for convection baking.

■

Darkened or matte-finished pans will bake

faster than shiny pans.

■

Glass or ceramic pans cook more slowly.

When baking cookies, you will get the

best results if you use a flat cookie

sheet instead of a pan with low sides.

For recipes like oven-baked chicken,

use a pan with low sides. Hot air cannot

circulate well around food in a pan

with high sides.

3 beeps will sound.

Press the

CLEAR/OFF

pad when

finished.

NOTE: You will hear a fan while cooking with

convection. The fan will stop when the door is

opened but the heat will not turn off.

Multi-Shelf Baking

Because heated air is circulated evenly

throughout the oven, foods can be

baked on 2 or 3 shelves at a time. Multi-

shelf baking may increase cook times

slightly for some foods but the overall

result is time saved.

When baking on 3 shelves, divide the

oven into thirds by placing the regular

shelves in first (A) and fourth (D)

positions, with the offset shelf in the

second (B) position.

For 2-shelf baking, place the shelves in

the B and D positions.

Adjust the oven thermostat—Do it yourself!

You may find that your new oven cooks differently than the one it replaced. Use your new oven for a few

weeks to become more familiar with it. If you still think your new oven is too hot or too cold, you can adjust

the thermostat yourself.

Do not use thermometers, such as those found in grocery stores, to check the temperature setting of your

oven. These thermometers may vary 20–40 degrees.

NOTE: This adjustment will not affect the broiling or the self-cleaning temperatures. The adjustment will be

retained in memory after a power failure.

The type of margarine will affect baking performance!

Most recipes for baking have been developed using high fat products such as butter or margarine (80% fat). If you

decrease the fat, the recipe may not give the same results as with a higher fat product.

Recipe failure can result if cakes, pies, pastries, cookies or candies are made with low fat spreads. The lower the fat

content of a spread product, the more noticeable these differences become.

Federal standards require products labeled “margarine” to contain at least 80% fat by weight. Low fat spreads,

on the other hand, contain less fat and more water. The high moisture content of these spreads affects the

texture and flavor of baked goods. For best results with your old favorite recipes, use margarine, butter or stick

spreads containing at least 70% vegetable oil.

Using the self-cleaning oven.

The oven door must be closed and all controls must be set correctly for the cycle to work properly.

Before a Clean Cycle

We recommend venting your kitchen

with an open window or using a

ventilation fan or hood during the

first self-clean cycle.

Remove the shelves, broiler pan,

broiler grid, all cookware and any

aluminum foil from the oven.

The oven shelves can be self-cleaned,

but they will darken, lose their luster

and become hard to slide.

Soil on the front frame of the range

and outside the gasket on the door will

need to be cleaned by hand. Clean

these areas with hot water, soap-filled

steel-wool pads or cleansers such as

Soft Scrub®. Rinse well with clean

water and dry.

Do not clean the gasket. The fiberglass

material of the oven door gasket cannot

withstand abrasion. It is essential for

the gasket to remain intact. If you

notice it becoming worn or frayed,

replace it.

Wipe up any heavy spillovers on the

oven bottom.

Make sure the oven light bulb cover is

in place and the oven light is off.

IMPORTANT:

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.

Care and cleaning of the range.

Be sure electrical power is off and all surfaces are cool before cleaning any part of the range.

If your range is removed for cleaning, servicing or any reason, be sure the

anti-tip device is re-engaged properly when the range is replaced. Failure to

take this precaution could result in tipping of the range and cause injury.

Control Knobs

The control knobs may be removed for easier

cleaning.

Before removing the knobs for cleaning,

please note that the knobs are in the

OFF

position. When replacing the knobs,

check the

OFF

position to insure proper

placement.

Wash the knobs in soap and water or a

vinegar and hot water solution but do

not soak.

Control Panel

It’s a good idea to wipe the control

panel after each use. Clean with mild

soap and water or vinegar and water,

rinse with clean water and polish dry

with a soft cloth.

Do not use abrasive cleansers, strong

liquid cleansers, plastic scouring pads

or oven cleansers on the control

panel—they will damage the finish.

A 50/50 solution of vinegar and hot

water works well.

How to Remove Packaging Tape

To assure no damage is done to the

finish of the product, the safest way

to remove the adhesive left from

packaging tape on new appliances is

an application of a household liquid

dishwashing detergent, mineral oil or

cooking oil.

Apply with a soft cloth and allow to

soak. Wipe dry and then apply an

appliance polish to thoroughly clean

and protect the surface.

NOTE: The plastic tape must be removed

from all surfaces. It cannot be removed if it

is baked on.

The knob stem has a groove in each

side. The groove on one side has a

spring clip. The other groove is clear

(see illustration). Check the inside of

the knob and find the molded rib.

Replace the knob by fitting the molded

rib inside the knob into the clear groove

on the stem.

The knob stem is flat on one side (see

illustration). Check the inside of the

knob and find the molded flat area.

Replace the knob by fitting the molded

flat area inside the knob onto the flat

area of the stem.

(appearance may vary)

The gasket is designed with a gap

at the bottom to allow for proper air

circulation.

Do not rub or clean the door

gasket—it has an extremely low

resistance to abrasion.

If you notice the gasket becoming

worn, frayed or damaged in any

way or if it has become displaced

on the door, you should have it

replaced.

Lift-Off Oven Door

The oven door is removable for easier

access to the light bulb.

Do not lift the door by the handle.

To remove the door,

open it to the broil

stop position. Grasp firmly on each

side and lift the door straight up and

off the hinges.

Do not place hands between the hinge and the

oven door frame.

To replace the door,

make sure the

hinges are in the broil stop position.

Position the slots in the bottom of the

door squarely over the hinges and

slowly lower it over both hinges.

To clean the inside of the door:

■ Because the area inside the gasket

is cleaned during the self-clean

cycle, you do not need to clean this

by hand.

■ The area outside the gasket and the

front frame can be cleaned with a

soap-filled steel wool or plastic pad,

hot water and detergent. Rinse well

with a vinegar and water solution.

To clean the outside of the door:

■ Use soap and water to thoroughly

clean the top, sides and front of the

oven door. Rinse well. You may also

use a glass cleaner to clean the glass

on the outside of the door. Do not

let water drip into the vent openings.

■ Spillage of marinades, fruit juices,

tomato sauces and basting materials

containing acids may cause

discoloration and should be wiped

up immediately. When surface is

cool, clean and rinse.

■ Do not use oven cleaners, cleaning

powders or harsh abrasives on the

outside of the door.

Lift the door straight up and off the

hinges.

Oven Shelves/Roasting Rack

Clean the oven shelves and roasting

rack with an abrasive cleanser or steel

wool. After cleaning, rinse the shelves

with clean water and dry with a clean

cloth.

NOTE: The oven shelves and roasting rack

may be cleaned in the self-cleaning oven.

However, they will darken in color, lose their

luster and become hard to slide if cleaned

during the self-cleaning cycle.

To make the shelves slide more easily

apply a small amount of vegetable oil

or cooking oil to a paper towel and

wipe the edges of the oven shelves with

the paper towel.

Oven Vent

The oven is vented through an opening

at the rear of the cooktop.

Never cover the opening with aluminum foil or

any other material.

Painted Surfaces

Painted surfaces include the sides,

Clean these with soap and water or a

vinegar and water solution.

Do not use commercial oven cleaners,

cleaning powders, steel wool or harsh

abrasives on any painted surface.

Oven Light Bulb

NOTE: The glass cover should be removed

only when cold. Wearing latex gloves may

offer a better grip.

Before replacing the bulb, disconnect

electrical power to the range at the

main fuse or circuit breaker panel.

Let the bulb cool completely before

removing it. For your safety, do not

touch a hot bulb with a damp cloth.

If you do, the bulb will break.

To remove:

Turn the glass cover counterclockwise

1/4 turn until the tab of the glass cover

clears the grooves of the socket.

Remove the bulb.

To replace:

Put in a new 40-watt appliance bulb.

Place the tab of the glass cover into

the groove of the socket. Turn the glass

cover clockwise 1/4 turn.

NOTE:

■

A 40-watt appliance bulb is smaller than a

standard 40-watt household bulb.

■

Reconnect electrical power to the range.

■

For improved lighting inside the oven, clean

the glass cover frequently using a wet cloth.

This should be done when the oven is

completely cool.

Broiler Pan & Grid

Do not clean the broiler pan or grid in a self-

cleaning oven.

After broiling, remove the broiler pan

from the oven. Remove the grid from

the pan. Carefully pour out the grease

from the pan into a proper container.

Wash and rinse the broiler pan and

grid in hot water with a soap-filled or

plastic scouring pad.

If food has burned on, sprinkle the

grid with detergent while hot and cover

with wet paper towels or a dishcloth.

Soaking the pan will remove burned-on

foods.

Both the broiler pan and grid may be

cleaned with a commercial oven

cleaner.

Both the broiler pan and grid can also

be cleaned in a dishwasher.

Do not store a soiled broiler pan and grid

anywhere in the range.

After broiling, remove the broiler

pan from the oven.

Oven Heating Elements

Do not clean the bake element or the broil

element. Any soil will burn off when the

elements are heated.

To clean the oven floor, gently lift

the bake element. Clean with warm

soapy water.

Removable Storage Drawer

The storage drawer is a good place to store

cookware and bakeware. Do not store plastics

and flammable material in the drawer.

Do not overload the storage drawer. If

the drawer is too heavy, it may slip off

the track when opened. To open the

drawer, grasp the center of the handle

and pull straight out.

To remove:

Pull the drawer straight out and lift

over the guide stops.

To replace:

Lift over the guide stops and slide the

drawer into place.

To clean both the inside and the

outside: Wipe with soap and water.

Rinse well.

Do not use cleansing powders or harsh

abrasives which may scratch the surface.

The storage drawer may be removed

for cleaning under the range.

Care and cleaning of the range.

If the range is removed for cleaning or any reason, make sure the chain is reattached.

Anti-Tip Device

Before placing range in the

counter, notice the location of the

stability bracket which is already

attached to the back of the range.

This location should work for

most installations. However, it

may be more convenient to hook

the stability chain to the unit when

the stability bracket is attached to

the upper set of holes in the back

of range.

The upper level set of holes is intended for use

with a backsplash kit. If the backsplash is not

being used, make sure that there are no

structural supports for the countertop which

will interfere with the stability bracket when

located in the upper set of holes.

Fasten one end of the stability

chain to the floor or wall with the

long screw and washer supplied.

NOTE: If attaching to masonry, you can buy

suitable screws and anchors at hardware

stores. Use a masonry drill to drill the

required holes.

Make certain the screw is going into the wall

plate at the base of the wall or one of the

studs in the base of the wall.

Whether you attach the chain to the

wall or floor, be certain that the screw

is in at least 3/4 inch thickness of wood

other than baseboard and that there

are no electrical wires or plumbing in

the area which the screw could

penetrate. Attach the stability chain in

a location which will allow the chain to

be in line with the bracket side to aid as

much as possible when attached to the

unit. Test to see if the chain is securely

fastened by tugging on the chain.

Temporarily attach the loose end

of the chain to the rear of the

countertop with the tape from

the packaging.

Place the range in the counter

cutout leaving just enough room

between the back of the range

and the wall to reach the stability

bracket.

Hook the loose end of the chain

onto the bracket by slipping the

nearest link of the chain into the

slot in the bracket. Make sure the

chain is pulled as tight as possible

and that there is no excess slack in

the chain after the chain is

attached to the bracket.

Slide the range all the way back

into the counter. Once the range

is pushed back in place, there will

be a small amount of slack in the

chain. This is normal.

CAUTION: Excessive slack in the chain could

allow the range to tip over.

Cleaning the glass cooktop.

Clean the glass surface with cleaning cream before you use the cooktop for the first time.

Also, clean the glass surface after each use. This helps protect the top and makes clean-up easier.

To clean the cooktop seal around the edge of the glass, let a wet cloth rest on it for a few minutes,

then wipe clean. Use a mild detergent if needed. Do not use a knife or any sharp object on the seal

because it will cut or damage it.

Normal Cleaning

Use only a recommended cleaning

cream, such as Cerama Brite or another

cooktop cleaning cream, on the glass

cooktop.

To maintain and protect the surface of

your new glass cooktop follow these

steps.

Before you use the cooktop for the

first time, clean it with cleaning

cream. This helps protect the top

and makes clean-up easier.

Clean the surface with the

cleaning cream after each use.

Rub a few drops (less is better)

of the cleaning cream onto soiled

area using a damp paper towel.

Buff with a dry paper towel until

all soil and cream are removed.

For Heavy, Burned-On Soil…

Allow the cooktop to cool.

Apply a few drops of cleaning

cream to the cool, soiled area.

Spread the cream across the entire

soiled area.

Hold scraper at a 45° angle against

the glass ceramic surface. This 45°

angle makes the scraping easier.

Scrape soil with the enclosed razor

scraper. Keep small amount of

cream on the soil as you scrape.

Heavily soiled areas may require

repeated applications of cream. It

will be necessary to press down on

the razor scraper while scraping the

soiled area with cooktop cream.

Be sure to use a new sharp razor scraper.

Do not use a dull or nicked blade.

If any soil remains, repeat the

steps listed above.

Special Care for Sugary Spills

Be sure to use a new sharp razor scraper.

Do not use a dull or nicked blade.

Sugary spillovers (such as jellies, fudge,

candy syrups) or melted plastics can

cause pitting of the surface of your

cooktop (not covered by the warranty)

unless the spill is removed while still

hot.

Special care should be taken when

removing hot substances.

Turn off all surface units affected

by the spillover. Remove hot pans.

Wearing an oven mitt,

hold the

razor scraper at a 45° angle to the

cooktop. Scrape the hot spill to a

cool area outside the surface unit.

With the spill in a cool area, use a

dry paper towel to remove any

excess. Any spillover remaining

should be left until the surface of

the cooktop has cooled. Do not

continue to use the soiled surface

unit until all of the spillover has

been removed. Follow the steps

under

Heavy Burned-On Soil

continue the cleaning process.

NOTE: If pots with a thin overlay of aluminum,

copper or enamel are allowed to boil dry, the

overlay may bond with the glass cooktop and

leave a black discoloration. This should be

removed immediately before heating again

or the discoloration may be permanent.

Using a razor scraper will not

damage the surface if the 45° angle

is maintained.
