IMPORTANT

INSTRUCTIONS

FOR USING YOUR

IMPORTANT
OVEN

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 Removable
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.

SELF CLEANING

INSTRUCTIONS

FOR USING YOUR

• 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.

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.

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. Make sure the diameter of the pan matches the diameter of the element
outline on the cooktop. Heat is transferred up th rough the surface of the cooktop to the cookware. Only flat-bottomed cookware
should be used. The type and size of 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. 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
temperatu re 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. The ceramic fixture
thermally insulates the heating element, concentrating heat
in the heating zone. For efficient cooking, turn off the
element several minutes before cooking is complete. This
will allow residual heat to complete the cooking process.

NOTE: Please read detailed instructions for ceramic glass cooktop cleaning in the General Cleaning and Before You Call
checklist sections of this Use and Care Manual.
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 smooth top. Cycling at the HI setting is normal and can occur if the cookware is too small for the radiant
element or if the cookware bottom is not flat.

Before Setting Oven Controls
Dual Radiant
Surface
Elements
(If equipped)
The dual radiant surface element is made up of an inner and outer coil within the same surface
element. A variable control is used to operate the different coils. The smaller or inner coil has
a lower wattage and can be used to prepare smaller quantities of food in smaller pans. The
dual element can also combine both the inner and outer coils for a combined higher wattage.
The combined operation should be used to prepare larger quantities of food in larger pans.
Element
On and Hot Surface
Indicator
Lights
You r range is equipped with two different surface control lights that will glow on you r range-the Element On indicator light and a Hot Surface indicator light.
The Element On located on the control panel, will glow when any surface element is turned on. A quick glance at this light after
cooking is an easy check to be sure all surface controls are turned off.
The Rot Surface indicator light, located on the control panel, will glow as the surface cooking area heats up and will REMAIN
ON until the glass cooktop has cooled to a MODERATE level.

To Operate

1.

Place correctly sized cookware on the radiant surface element.

Push in and turn the surface control knob in either direction to the desired
setting. Start most cooking operations on a higher setting and then turn to a
lower setting to finish cooking. The surface control knobs do not have to be
set exactly on a particular mark. Use the marks as a guide and adjust the
control knob as needed. Each surface element provides a constant amount of
heat at each setting. A glowing red su rface heating area extending beyond the
bottom edge of the cookware indicates the cookware is too small for the
surface heating area.

Single RadiantSurface Control

When cooking iscompleted, turn the surface element off before removing the
cookware. Note: the Element On indicator light will glow when one or more
elements are turned on. A quick glance at the indicator light(s) when cooking
isfinished isan easy check to be sure all control knobs are turned off. The Rot
Surface indicator light will continue to glow AFTER the control knob is turned
to the "Off" position and will glow until the heating surface area has cooled
sufficiently.

_IF__!_'_j"j"t_l 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 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.

To Operate

Zone Control

(if equipped)

The purpose of the Warming Zone is to keep hot cooked foods at serving
temperature. Always start with hot food. It is not recommended to heat cold food
on the Warming Zone.

All food placed on the Warming Zone should be covered with a lid or aluminum foil
to maintain quality. For best results, when warming pastries or breads, the cover
should have an opening to allow moisture to escape. Do not use plastic wrap to
cover food. Plastic may melt onto the surface and be very difficult to clean.
Use only dishware, utensils and cookware recommended for oven and cooktop use
on the Warming Zone.

Speed Bake TM Cooking System - (If equipped)
Speed Bake TM Cooking System uses a fan to circulate the oven's heat uniformly
and continuously around the oven. This improved heat distribution allows for fast,
even cooking and browning results• It also gives better baking results when using
two racks at the same time•
Heated air flows around the food from all sides, sealing in juices and flavors.
Meats cooked with Speed Bake TM Cooking System are juicer. Poultry is crisp
on the outside while staying tender and moist on the inside. Breads and pastry
brown more evenly. Most foods baked in a standard oven can be cooked faster
and more evenly with Speed Bake TM Cooking System•

cycle is complete and the oven has cooled, rub the sides of the racks with wax
paper or a cloth containing a small amount of baby oil or salad oil (this will
make the racks glide easier into the rack position).
Remove any excess spillovers in the oven cavity before starting the selfcleaning 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

cleaning

is essential

to maintaining

your ceramic

glass cooktop.

Prior to using your cooktop for the first time, apply the recommended cooktop cleaning cream to the glass surface. Buff with
a non-abrasive cloth or 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.

Recommendations

for Ceramic

Glass Cooktops

Before cleaning the cooktop, be sure the controls are turned to OFF and the cooktop is COOL.
'!'v_vf-'1'l#lh'[€'llDO 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.

For light to moderate

soil

Use a non-abrasive pad, cloth or paper towel with the cooktop cleaning cream to apply on the cooktop surface. Buff surface
until all soils and creams are removed. Mild dishwashing detergent with water may also be used. Make su re the cooktop is rinsed
thoroughly, leaving no detergent or cleaner residue.

For heavy,

burned on soil

Use the same method as for light to moderate soil. Re-apply the cooktop cleaning cream and cover with a wet paper towel. Let
stand for about thirty minutes to loosen soil from surface. Scrub with cloth to remove remaining soil.
/

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.

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.
