Cooktop Cooking Guide

Boiling Water

Time to boil can vary greatly depending on environmental conditions. Try the following tips to decrease boil time:

• Use a lid.

• Use a pan that is appropriately sized for the amount of water and the size of the element.

• Select a pan with a flat base (See “Cookware Selection Guide” in the next column for details).

• Choose a medium-weight pan (rather than a heavyweight one).

• Make sure that the pan is positioned so that the entire base is in contact with the burner grate.

• Start with water that is already warm.

• Boil the smallest amount of water necessary. Smaller volumes will boil faster than larger volumes.

Recommended Settings

Use this chart as a guide for heat settings. A range of heat settings are listed because the actual setting depends on:

• type and quality of pan (See “Cookware Selection Guide”),

• type, quantity and temperature of the food,

• element used and

• the cook’s preference

Uses Heat Setting
Bringing water to a boil High
Pan frying, sauteing, browning meat, deep fat frying Medium High
Most frying, eggs, pancakes, slow boil Medium
Finish cooking covered foods, steaming Medium Low Medium Low
Melting chocolate and butter, simmering tomato sauces, soups, stews Low

Cookware Selection Guide

Cookware Characteristics

• Aluminum or copper bottomed pans conduct heat evenly.

• Steel pans, if not combined with other metals, may cook unevenly.

• Cast-iron cookware absorbs heat slowly and cooks more evenly at low-to-medium settings.

• Flat, heavy bottom pans provide even heat and stability.

• DO NOT USE pans that are thin, warped, dented or ridged as they heat unevenly.

Tight Fitting Lids – A lid shortens cooking/boiling time by holding heat inside the pot.

Cookware Tips

• Use of pots and pans with rounded (either concave or convex) warped or dented bottoms should be avoided.

• Make sure the bottom of the pot or pan being used is clean and dry.

• Use pots and pans with thick, smooth metal bottoms

Specialty Pans

Pan Bottom Diameter

• The flame should be the same size as the bottom of the pan or smaller. Do not use small pans with high flame settings as the flames can lick up the sides of the pan.

• Oversize pans that span two burners are placed front to back, not side to side.

• For best cooking results, large pans should not extend over the sides of the grates

Use Balanced Pans

• Balance is important for stability and even cooking.

• Pans must sit level on the cooktop grate without rocking or wobbling.

• Center pan over burner

Use a Lid That Fits Properly

A well-fitting lid helps shorten the cooking time

Temperature Range by Cooking Mode

Cooking Modes

Bake

Bake is cooking with dry heated air. Heat comes from the lower burner and cycles to maintain the oven temperature. The Bake mode can be used to prepare a variety of food items, from pastries to casseroles. Refer to recipe or package directions for oven temperature and baking time.

Tips

• When using the Bake mode, preheat the oven if the recipe recommends it.

• Baking time will vary with the size, shape and finish of the bakeware. Dark metal pans or nonstick coatings will cook faster with darker results. Insulated bakeware will lengthen the cook time for most foods.

• For best results, bake food on a single rack with at least 1 1/2” space between pans or dishes and oven walls.

• Eliminate heat loss from the oven by using the window to periodically check food for doneness instead of opening the door.

• If multiple racks are used, use a maximum of 2 racks. For cookies and cakes use positions 2 and 5. Stagger pans so that one is not directly above the other

Convection Bake Convection

Bake is similar to Bake. Heat comes from the lower burner that is circulated throughout the oven by the convection fan. The Convection Bake mode is well suited for cakes, bar cookies and breads to take advantage of the bottom heat, yielding a better crust on baked items.

It is also best for baking cookies, biscuits, cream puffs, on multiple racks (2 or 3) at the same time.

The benefits of Convection Bake include:

-- Slight decrease in cook time.

-- Higher volume (yeast items rise higher).

Tips

• Place food in shallow, uncovered pans such as cookie sheet without sides.

• For cakes and cookies use rack positions 3 and 5.

• If baking more than one pan on a rack, allow at least 1” to 1 1/2” of air space around the pan. Stagger pans so that one is not directly above the other (see graphic in next column).

Auto Convection Conversion

The Convection Bake mode requires a 25° F reduction in temperature. Auto Convection Conversion reduces the temperature you enter automatically. Simply enter the package or recipe temperature when setting the mode. The control calculates the correct temperature and it is shown in the display.

The Auto Convection Conversion feature can be turned on to allow for automatic temperature adjustments. See “Auto Convection Conversion” in “Settings” on page 19 for details.

Pizza

In the Pizza mode, heat from the lower burner is circulated throughout the oven by the convection fan.

Use the Pizza mode for fresh or frozen pizza.

Tips

• When baking a frozen pizza: For a crispy crust, place pizza directly on the rack. For a softer crust, use a pizza pan.

• When proofing pizza dough, coat dough with olive oil and cover it in a bowl tightly with plastic wrap to prevent crust formation.

• Sprinkle cornmeal on the pizza pan to prevent sticking.

• If using a pizza paddle, sprinkle the paddle liberally with cornmeal for ease in transferring the dough to the pan.

• If par baking handmade pizza dough, prick the dough with a fork before baking.

• If using a pizza pan, choose a dark, perforated pan for a more crisp crust and a non-perforated pan for a softer crust.

• Preheat baking stones following manufacturer’s recommendations while the oven is preheating.

• Bake homemade pizzas on rack position 2 in the center of the rack. • Follow manufacturer’s directions for frozen pizza.

Roast

Roast uses the lower burner to maintain the oven temperature. Roast is best suited for meat and poultry and less tender cuts of meat.

Tips:

• Preheating the oven is not necessary.

• Use a high-sided broil pan or roasting pan. Cover dish with a lid or foil for less tender cuts of meat.

• For less tender cuts of meat, add liquids such as water, juice, wine, bouillon or stock for flavor and moisture.

• Roasting bags and using a lid are suitable for use in this mode.

• When roasting whole chicken or turkey, tuck wings behind back and loosely tie legs with kitchen string

Broil

Broil uses intense heat radiated from the upper burner. The Broil mode is best suited for cooking thin, tender cuts of meat (1" or less), poultry and fish. It can also be used to brown breads and casseroles. Always broil with the door closed. The benefits of broiling include:

• Fast and efficient cooking.

• Cooking without the addition of fats or liquids.

Tips:

• Preheat oven 3–4 minutes. Do not preheat for more than 5 minutes.

• Steaks and chops should be at least ¾" thick.

• Brush fish and poultry with butter or oil to prevent sticking.

• Use a broil pan and grid, or a deep pan with a metal rack, for broiling.

Proof

Proof is using the lower burner to maintain a low temperature to proof bread, pizza dough or other yeast doughs.

• No preheat is necessary.

• Proofing is the rising of yeast dough.

• The Proof Dough mode temperature range is 85° F to 125° F.

• The default temperature in the Proof Dough mode is 100° F.

• Loosely cover the bowl or pan and use any rack that accommodates the size of the container.

• Keep the oven door closed and use the oven light to check the rising of the dough. Warm Warm is cooking with dry, heated air. The lower burner cycles to maintain the oven temperature.

• Use the Warm mode to keep cooked foods hot until ready to serve for up to one hour.

• Warm mode temperatures are 150° F to 225° F.

• The default temperature in the Warm mode is 170° F.

• Foods that must be kept moist should be covered with a lid or aluminum foil.

Oven Maintenance

Replacing an Oven Light

To change the bulb:

1. Turn off power to the oven at the main power supply (fuse or breaker box).

2. Remove the glass cover by unscrewing it. Turn the glass counterclockwise to remove it.

3. Remove the bulb. The bulb unscrews counterclockwise.

4. Grasp the new bulb with a clean, dry cloth to prevent depositing skin oils on the glass which could lead to premature bulb failure. Replace the bulb by screwing it in turning the bulb clockwise.

5. Screw the glass cover back on.

6. Turn power back on at the main power supply (fuse or breaker box).

Removing the Oven Door

To help avoid injury or damage be sure to read the above WARNING before attempting to remove the oven door.

1. Open the oven door to its fully open, horizontal position.

2. Flip levers on hinges toward you.

Note: It may be necessary to use a tool, such as a screwdriver, to gently pry the upper part of the lever away from the housing. Take care to avoid scratching the housing.

3. Bring both door hinge levers to their fullest down position as shown in the illustration. The left and right door hinge levers may differ slightly but operate in the same manner

4. Close the oven door until it catches on the hinge stop levers, locking the hinges at the proper angle for door removal. The door will be open about 7 inches at the top. This takes the spring tension off the hinges so the door can be easily lifted out.
5. The door is heavy. Use both hands to firmly grip it by the sides. Do not grip the door by the handle. Maintaining the door angle, lift the door straight up approximately 3/4" to unhook the hinges from the slots and then pull it out towards you until the hinges are clear of the oven housing. 6. Place the door in a convenient and stable location for cleaning.

To replace the oven door

1. Holding the door firmly in both hands, grip it on either side, not by the handle.

2. Tilt the door back slightly towards you until it opens about 7" at the top.

3. Slide the hinges into the slots as far as they will go and then lower the door straight down. The angle of the door may need to be adjusted slightly to allow the hinges to engage properly and the door to lower into place. The door should lower about 3/ 4" and stop. If not, the hinges have not engaged properly and the door could fall if it is released.

4. Once both hinges are fully engaged as described in Step 3, gently open the door until it is fully open

5. Push the levers on both the hinges up and forward until they are locked into the slot, flush with the front of the oven body.

6. Close and open door slowly to be sure it is correctly and securely in place

Removing the Drawer

1. Pull drawer to fully open position.

2. Press down right drawer clip.

3. Lift up left drawer clip.

4. Firmly pull the drawer straight out. Retract housing slides while drawer is removed.

Replacing the Drawer

1. Be sure housing slides are pushed inside housing.

2. Align the drawer rails with the housing slides attached to the drawer housing.

3. Firmly push the drawer straight into the drawer housing until the drawer clicks into place.

Note: The drawer has a “push-to-open” operation. Pressing the lower center front of the drawer causes the drawer to self-open.

4. Open and close drawer to test operation. Note: if the drawer will not close, verify that the rails on the drawer are properly aligned to housing slides and that the rail release levers are properly positioned.
