Virtual FlameTM technology

Virtual FlameTM technology creates the appearance of flames when you turn on an induction element.

• If the Virtual FlameTM option is set to On, virtual flames appear when you turn an induction control knob to an On position.

• The virtual flame may look different depending on the appearance, size, or position of the cookware. (For the best results, use cookware that matches the element size. Cookware that is too large can cover the virtual flame. Cookware that is too small can cause the virtual flame to be ill-formed.)

• Impurities on the cookware bottom or the cooktop surface can cause the virtual flame to be ill-formed or incomplete. Clean up the cookware or the cooktop surface before using them.

• To turn off the virtual flames, set the Virtual FlameTM option to Off. If the virtual flame function does not operate, check if the Virtual FlameTM option has been turned off. (See the "System settings" on page 47.)

Before using the cooktop

Use quality cookware in good condition

The cookware used with the cooktop surface should have flat bottoms that make good contact with the entire surface of the Cooking Zone. Check for flatness by rotating a ruler across the bottom of the cookware. Be sure to follow all the recommendations for using cookware

Also remember to

• Use cookware made with the correct material for induction cooking. See "Cookware for induction cooking zones" on page 27.

• Use quality cookware with heavier bottoms for better heat distribution allowing for more even cooking results.

• The pan size should match the amount of food being prepared.

• Do not let pans boil dry. This may cause permanent damage in the form of breakage, fusion, or marring that can affect the ceramic cooktop. (This type of damage is not covered by your warranty.)

• Do not use dirty pans with grease buildup. Always use pans that are easy to clean after cooking.

CAUTION

• The Cooking Zones may appear to be cool while turned ON and after they have been turned OFF. The glass surface may be HOT from residual heat transferred from the cookware and burns may occur.

• DO NOT TOUCH HOT COOKWARE or PANS directly with your hands. Always use oven mitts or pot holders to protect your hands from burns.

• DO NOT SLIDE cookware across the cooktop surface. Doing so may permanently damage the appearance of the ceramic cooktop.

Pot and pan sizes

Induction cooking zones adapt automatically to the size of the bottom of the cookware up to a certain limit. However the magnetic part of the bottom of the cookware must have a minimum diameter depending upon the size of the cooking zone.

Cooking zones Minimum diameter of the bottom of the cookware 1 5.2 inches (130 mm) 2 4.5 inches (110 mm) 3 7.25 inches (180 mm)

Induction cookware test

You can test whether cookware is most efficient for induction cooktop.

1. Press and hold(3secs) the OFF and at the same time. 2. If you enter test mode, your cooktop display will appear like the image on the left. 3. Put your cookware on an induction cooking zone, and turn each knob one by one that you want to test to Boost or 1 - 9. Example: If the cookware you want to test is on the Right Front cooking zone, turn the Right Front knob. 4. After analyzing, the result will be shown on the cooktop display. • : That cookware can not be used • : That cookware is usable but less efficient • : That cookware is most efficient 5. After few seconds, you can try again 2 - 4. 6. To finish this test, Turn all knob to OFF.

Operating noises

You may hear the following operational noises:

• Cracking noises : You may hear a cracking noise when you are using cookware made of two or more materials.
• Whistling : A whistling noise occurs when both back burners are in use. This is caused by vibrations. Whistling can vary depending on the weight or material of the cookware or the type of food you are cooking. (Noise can be reduced by using thicker cookware.)
• Humming : You may hear a low humming when you set an element to a high power setting. This sound is generated by energy transmission, and it will disappear when cooktop is turned off.
• Clicking : Electric switches are operating.
• Hissing, Buzzing : You may hear a fan noise during cooktop/oven operation. You may continue to hear it even after the cooktop/oven is turned off. This is normal. The fan runs to cool down the temperature inside. It will automatically shut off itself after a short period of time.

These noises are normal and do not indicate any defects.

Using suitable induction cookware

Suitability test

Cookware is suitable for induction cooking if a magnet sticks to the bottom of the cookware and the cookware is labelled as suitable by the cookware manufacturer.

Better pans produce better results

• You can recognize good pots and pans by their bases. The base should be as thick and flat as possible.
• When buying new pots or pans, pay particular attention to the diameter of the base. Manufacturers often give only the diameter of the upper rim.
• Do not use pans which have damaged bases with rough edges. You can scratch the ceramic cooktop permanently if you slide a pot or pan with a damaged base across the surface.
• When cold, pan bases are normally bowed slightly inwards (concave). They should never be bowed outwards (convex).
• If you want to use a special type of pot or pan, for example, a pressure cooker, a simmering pan, or a wok, please follow the manufacturer’s instructions.

Energy saving tips

You can save valuable energy by observing the following points:

• Always position pots and pans before switching on the cooking zone.

• Dirty cooking zones and pan bases increase power consumption.

• When possible, position lids firmly on pots and pans so that the lids cover them completely.

• Switch the cooking zones off before the end of the cooking time and use the residual heat to keep food warm.

Temperature detection

If for any reason the temperatures on any of the cooking zones exceeds the safety level, then the cooking zone will automatically reduce the heat to a lower power level. When you have finished using the cooktop, the cooling fan will continue to run until the cooktop’s electronics have cooled down. The cooling fan switches itself on and off depending upon the temperature of the electronics.

NOTE If the induction cooktop overheats because of abnormal operation, will be displayed and the induction cooktop will turn off.

Power management

The cooking zones, which consist of paired cooking elements, are restricted to drawing a certain maximum amount of power. If you cause a cooking zone to exceed its maximum allowed power by switching on the Power Boost function, the Power Management function automatically reduces the power setting of the two elements in the cooking zone and reduces the power draw.

CAUTION Always use this cooking mode with the oven door closed. Use care when opening the door. Let hot air or steam escape before you remove food from or put food into the oven.

Baking

Bake is used to cook cakes, cookies, and casseroles. Always preheat the oven first. Baking temperatures and times will vary depending on the ingredients, the size, and shape of the baking pan used. Dark or nonstick coatings may cook faster with more browning.

NOTE

• Place food in the oven after preheating if the recipe calls for it.
• Preheating is very important for good results when baking cakes, cookies, pastry, and breads. After the oven has reached the desired temperature, the oven will beep several times.
• If you are using an oven thermometer in the oven cavity, the temperature registered by the thermometer may differ from the actual set oven temperature.
• For performance reasons, the convection fan may be turned on or off during the operation.

Convection cooking

The convection fan at the back of the oven circulates hot air evenly throughout the oven cavities so that food is evenly cooked and browned in less time than with regular heat.

CAUTION

• 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.

NOTE

• When using convection cooking, always preheat the oven for the best results.
• If you leave the oven door open for more than 2 minutes when the oven is on, all heating elements will shut off automatically.
• When you have finished cooking, the cooling fan will continue to run until the oven has cooled down.
• For performance reasons, the convection fan may be turned on or off during the operation.

Broiling

Broiling uses the oven broil burner at the top of the oven to cook and brown food. Meat or fish must be put on a broiling grid in a broiling pan. Preheating for 4 minutes before broiling is recommended.

NOTE

• This oven is designed for closed door broiling. While broiling, keep the door closed. Only open the door to put food in, turn food over, or take food out.
• Use the Broil Rack for the best results.
• Use the Broil LO for poultry or thick cuts of meat to prevent overbroiling.
• Use caution when you open the oven door to turn over the food. The air escaping from the oven will be very hot.
• If you leave the oven door open for more than 2 minutes when the oven is on, all heating elements will shut off automatically.
• When you have finished cooking, the cooling fan will continue to run until the oven has cooled down.

Broiling guide

NOTE

• This is for reference only.
• Preheating for 4 minutes before broiling is recommended.
• The size, weight, thickness, starting temperature, and your doneness preference will affect broiling times.
• This guide is based on meats at refrigerator temperature.

CAUTION Make sure to close the door after turning over the food.

Air fry

This feature uses hot air for crispier and healthier frozen or fresh foods without, or less oil, than normal convection modes. For best results, use this mode on a single oven rack and place the Air fry tray on the position 3. The temperature can be set between 350 °F and 500 °F. Preheating is not necessary for this mode. Follow recipe or package directions for set temperature, time, or quantity.

Maintaining your appliance

Self-cleaning

This self-cleaning oven uses high temperatures (well above cooking temperatures) to burn off leftover grease and residue completely or reduce them to a finely powdered ash that you can wipe away with a damp cloth.

CAUTION

• During the self-cleaning cycle, the outside of the range will become very hot to the touch. Do not leave small children unattended near the appliance.
• Some birds are extremely sensitive to the fumes given off during the selfcleaning cycle of any range. Move birds to another well-ventilated room.
• Do not line the oven walls, racks, bottom, or any other part of the range with aluminum foil. Doing so will result in poor heat distribution, poor baking results, and cause permanent damage to the oven interior. Aluminum foil will melt and adhere to the interior surface of the oven.
• Do not force the oven door open. This can damage the automatic door locking system. Use care when opening the oven door after the self-cleaning cycle is complete. Stand to the side of the oven when opening the door to allow hot air or steam to escape. The oven may still be VERY HOT.

Before a self-cleaning cycle

• We recommend venting your kitchen with an open window or using a ventilation fan or hood during the selfcleaning cycle. • Remove the wire rack, broil pan, broil pan insert, all cookware, and any aluminum foil from the oven. • Wipe up debris from the oven bottom. (Fig. 1) • Residue 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, have it replaced. (Fig. 2) • Make sure the oven light bulb cover is in place and the oven light is off.

NOTE Remove oven racks and accessories before starting the self-clean mode.

How to run a self-cleaning cycle

1. Make sure the oven door is closed completely and unlocked. Turn off all oven and cooktop functions.

2. Tap , and select Cleaning > Self Clean using the dial knob. Then, select the cleaning time. (2 hour / 3 hour / 5 hour)

3. Tap START/SET. The oven door is locked automatically and the oven begins to heat up.

NOTE

• You will not be able to start a self-cleaning cycle if the oven lock feature is activated or if the oven’s temperature is too hot.

• The oven door locks automatically. The display will show the cleaning time remaining. It is not be possible to open the oven door until the temperature drops to a safe/cool temperature.

4. When the self-cleaning cycle is done, End will appear in the display and the range will beep several times.

How to delay the start of self-cleaning

1. Repeat steps 1 and 2 on 'How to run a self-cleaning cycle'.

2. Select Set Delay Start.

3. Set the time you want the oven to start self-cleaning using the dial knob.

4. Tap START/SET. The oven will start self-cleaning at your specified time.

How to turn off the self-cleaning feature

You may find it necessary to stop or interrupt a self-cleaning cycle due to smoke in the oven.

1. Press OFF.

2. You will be able to open the oven door once the oven has cooled down for approximately 1 hour.

After a self-cleaning cycle

• You may notice some white ash in the oven. Wipe it up with a damp cloth after the oven cools. (If white spots remain, remove them with a soap-filled steel wool pad and rinse thoroughly with a vinegar and water mixture.)

• If the oven is not clean after one cycle, repeat the cycle.

• You cannot set the oven for cooking until the oven is cool enough for the door to unlock.

Steam-cleaning

How to set the oven for steam-cleaning

For light cleaning, the steam-cleaning function saves time and energy. For heavierduty cleaning, use the self-cleaning function.

NOTE

When steam-cleaning, use exactly 10 oz. of water since this produces the best results.

NOTE

If you press Steam Clean when the oven temperature is above 100˚F, Hot will appear in the display. Because this function produces the best results when started while the oven is cool, we recommend that you wait until the oven has cooled down and Hot disappears from the display.

After a steam-cleaning cycle

• Take care when opening the door before a steam-cleaning procedure has ended. The water on the bottom is hot.
• Open the oven door and remove the remaining water with a sponge. Do not leave the residual water in the oven for any length of time. Wipe the oven clean and dry with a soft cloth. Do not forget to wipe under the oven door seal.
• Use a detergent-soaked sponge, a soft brush, or a nylon scrubber to wipe the oven interior. Remove stubborn residue with a nylon scourer. You can remove lime deposits with a cloth soaked in vinegar.
• If the oven remains dirty, you can repeat the procedure once the oven has cooled.
• For heavy residue, such as grease left over from roasting, we recommend that you rub detergent into the residue before activating the steam-cleaning function.
• After cleaning, leave the oven door ajar at a 15° angle to allow the interior enamel surface to dry thoroughly

Care and cleaning of the oven

WARNING

• Be sure all controls are OFF and all surfaces are COOL before cleaning any part of the range.

• If your range is moved for cleaning, servicing, or any reason, be sure the Anti-Tip device is re-engaged properly when the range is replaced. If you fail to reengage the Anti-Tip device, the range could tip and cause serious injury.

Oven door

• Use soap and water to thoroughly clean the top, sides, and front of the oven door. Rinse well. You may use a glass cleaner on the outside glass of the oven door. DO NOT immerse the door in water. DO NOT spray or allow water or the glass cleaner to enter the door vents. DO NOT use oven cleaners, cleaning powders, or any harsh abrasive cleaning materials on the outside of the oven door.

• DO NOT clean the oven door gasket. The oven door gasket is made of a woven material which is essential for a good seal. Care should be taken not to rub, damage, or remove this gasket.

Normal daily use cleaning

Use only a ceramic cooktop cleaner. Other creams may not be as effective. By following these steps, you can maintain and protect the surface of your glass cooktop.

1. Before using the cooktop for the first time, clean it with a ceramic cooktop cleaner. This helps protect the top and makes cleanup easier.
2. Daily use of a ceramic cooktop cleaner will help keep the cooktop looking new.
3. Shake the cleaning cream well. Apply a few drops of cleaner directly to the cooktop.
4. Use a paper towel or a cleaning pad for ceramic cooktops to clean the entire cooktop surface.
5. Use a dry cloth or paper towel to remove all cleaning residue. No need to rinse.

WARNING

DAMAGE to your glass surface may occur if you use scrub pads other than those recommended.

Removing burned-on residue

1. Allow the cooktop to cool.

2. Spread a few drops of ceramic cooktop cleaner on the entire burned residue area.

3. Using a cleaning pad for ceramic cooktops, rub the residue area, applying pressure as needed.

4. If any residue remains, repeat the steps listed above as needed.

5. For additional protection, after all residue has been removed, polish the entire surface by applying ceramic cooktop cleaner with a paper towel.

Removing heavy, burned-on residue

1. Allow the cooktop to cool.

2. Use a single-edge razor-blade scraper at approximately a 45° angle against the glass surface and scrape the soil. It will be necessary to apply pressure to remove the residue.

3. After scraping with the razor scraper, spread a few drops of ceramic cooktop cleaner on the entire burned residue area. Use a cleaning pad to remove any remaining residue. (Do not scrape the seal.)

4. For additional protection, after all residue has been removed, polish the entire surface by applying ceramic cooktop cleaner with a paper towel.

Removing metal marks and scratches

1. Be careful not to slide pots and pans across your cooktop. It will leave marks on the cooktop surface. You can remove these marks by applying ceramic cooktop cleaner with a cleaning pad for ceramic cooktops.
2. If pots with a thin overlay of aluminum or copper are allowed to boil dry, the overlay may leave black discoloration on the cooktop. You should remove this discoloration immediately or it may become permanent.

WARNING

Carefully check the bottoms of pans for roughness that may scratch the cooktop.

Cleaning the cooktop seal

To clean the seal around the edges of the glass, lay a wet cloth on it for a few minutes, then wipe clean with a nonabrasive cleaner.

Potential for permanent damage to the glass surface

• Sugary spillovers (such as jellies, fudge, candy, syrups) or melted plastics can cause pitting of the surface of your cooktop. This is not covered under the warranty. You should clean the spill while it is still hot. Take special care when removing hot substances. Refer to the section below.
• When using a scraper, be sure it is new and the razor blade is still sharp. Do not use a dull or nicked blade.

Cleaning sugary spills and melted plastic

1. Turn off all surface units. Remove hot pans.
2. Wearing an oven mitt, use a single-edge razor-blade scraper to move the spill to a cool area of the cooktop. Remove the spill with paper towels.
3. Any remaining spillover should be left until the surface of the cooktop has cooled.
4. Don’t use the surface units again until all of the residue has been completely removed.

NOTE

If pitting or indentations in the glass surface have already occurred, the cooktop glass will have to be replaced. In this case, service will be necessary
