Using Proper Cookware

Cookware

The size and type of cookware used will influence the
radiant element power level
setting needed for best cooking results. Be sure to follow
the recommendations for
using proper cookware as
illustrated in Figure 1 and
Figure 2.
Figure 1:

Types

The cookware material determines how evenly and quickly
heat is transferred from the surface element to the pan
bottom. The most popular materials available are:
Aluminum - Excellent heat conductor. Some types of
food will cause it to darken (Anodized aluminum
cookware resists staining and pitting). If aluminum pans
slide across the ceramic cooktop, they may leave metal
marks which will resemble scratches. Remove these
marks immediately.
•

Copper - Excellent heat conductor but discolors easily
(See Aluminum).

•

Stainless - Slow heat conductor with uneven cooking
results. Is durable, easy to clean and resists staining.

Testing cookware

Check for flatness by rotating a ruler across the bottom of
the cookware (See Figure 1). Cookware should have flat
bottoms that make good contact with the entire surface
heating element (See Figure 2). For detailed information
about the ceramic cooktop, refer to the"Cooktop Maintenance (cont'd)" on page 32.

Material

Cast Iron - A slow heat conductor however will retain
heat very well. Cooks evenly once cooking temperature
is reached. Not recommended for use on ceramic
cooktops.
Porcelain-enamel on metal - Heating characteristics will
vary depending on base material. Porcelain-enamel
coating must be smooth to avoid scratching ceramic
cooktops.

point of cookware made with these materials may be
reached quickly especially if left empty, and they may
bond to the ceramic cooktop. If the cookware melts it will
damage the cooktop. Be sure to follow all the cookware
manufacturer's suggestions when using any type of
cookware on the ceramic cooktop.

area

(White glass cooktops only). Due to the high intensity of
heat generated by the surface elements, the glass
surface will turn green when the element is turned off.
This phenomenon is normal and the glass will return to its
original white color after it has completely cooled down.

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. Be sure to match the pan size with the diameter of
the element outline on the cooktop and 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.

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.
Be sure to read detailed instructions for ceramic glass
cooktop cleaning in the General Care & Cleaning section
and Before You Call checklist section of this Use and

The cooktop should not be used as a cutting board or
work surface. Dropping heavy or hard objects on the
cooktop may crack it.
Pans with rough bottoms may scratch the cooktop
surface. Placing food directly on the smoothtop surface
(without cooking utensil)is not recommended as difficult
cleaning will result and foods may smoke and cause
potential fire hazard.
Always lift cookware before moving on ceramic glass
cooktop. Any cookware that has rough or dirty bottoms
can scratch the ceramic cooktop. Always start with clean
cookware.

The element on and hot surface indicator lights will glow
when the element is turned on and will continue to glow
:::
after the control knob is turned to the OFF position. It will
glow until the heating surface area has cooled sufficiently.
The glass surface may still be hot and burns may occur if !_
the glass surface is touched before the indicator light has
turned off.

About the Radiant Surface Elements
The element temperature rises gradually and evenly. As the
temperature 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.
For efficient cooking, turn off the element several minutes
before cooking is complete. This will allow residual heat to
complete the cooking process.

light will glow. The HOT SURFACE indicator light will turn
on when the burner is hot enough to cause burns and will
remain on until the surface has cooled to a safe temperature after the burner is turned off. The ELEMENT ON
indicator light will glow when one or more elements are
turned on. A quick glance at these indicator lights when
cooking is finished is an easy check to be sure all surface
elements are turned off.

HOT SURFACE

Do not allow aluminum foil, or any material that can melt,
to make contact with the ceramic glass cooktop. If these
items melt on the cooktop, they will damage the ceramic

Home Canning

Canning can generate large amounts of steam. Use
extreme caution to prevent burns. Always raise the lid to
vent steam away from you. Safe canning requires that
harmful micro-organisms are destroyed and the jars are
sealed completely. When canning in a water bath canner,
a gentle but steady boil must be maintained continuously
for the required time.

Home Canning

Do's and Don'ts

•

Use only quality flat bottom canners when home
canning.

•

Use a straight-edge to check canner bottom.

•

Use only a completely flat bottom canner with no ridges
that radiate from the bottom center when home
canning. Heat is spread more evenly when the bottom
surface is flat.
Make sure the diameter of the canner does not exceed
1 inch beyond the surface element markings or burner.
It is recommended to use smaller diameter canners on
electric coil and ceramic glass cooktops and to center
canners on the burner grates.

Be sure to read and observe all the following points when
home canning with your appliance. Check with the USDA
(United States Department of Agriculture) Web site and be
sure to read all the information they have available as well
as follow their recommendations for home canning procedures.

Start with hot tap water to bring water to boil more
quickly.
Use the highest heat seating when first bringing the
water to a boil. Once boiling is achieved, reduce heat to
lowest possible setting to maintain that boil.
Use tested recipes and follow instructions carefully.
Check with your local Cooperative Agricultural
Extension Service or a manufacturer of glass jars for
the latest canning information.
It is best to can small amounts and light loads.
Do not leave water bath or pressure canners on high
heat for an extended amount of time.
•

Alternate surface units between each batch to allow the
units and surrounding surfaces to cool down. Try to
avoid canning on the same burner unit all day.

Surface

Push in and turn the control knob toward the inner
element side for smaller cookware or to the dual
element side for larger cookware (See Figure 4).

Warmer

The warmer zone will not glow red when it is hot, but
becomes hot enough to cause burns. Avoid placing
hands on or near the warmer zone until the hot surface
indicator light is off. Always use potholders or oven mitts
when removing food from the warmer zone as cookware
and plates will be hot.
The purpose of the warmer zone is to keep hot cooked
foods at serving temperature. Use the feature to keep
cooked foods hot such as: vegetables, gravies, casseroles,
soups, stews, breads, pastries and oven-safe dinner plates.
Always start with hot food. Do not heat cold food on the
warmer zone. All food placed on the warmer zone should
be covered with a lid 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 plates,
utensils and cookware recommended for oven and cooktop
use on the warmer zone.

Turn the knob to adjust the setting if needed. Start most
cooking operations on a higher setting and then turn to
a lower setting to finish cooking. Each surface element
provides a constant amount of heat at each setting. A
glowing red surface heating area extending beyond the
bottom edge of the cookware indicates the cookware is
too small for the surface heating area.
When cooking has completed, turn the surface control
knob to OFF before removing the cookware.

Baking tips
For best bake results:
Fully preheat the oven before baking items like cookies,
cakes, biscuits, and breads. When using any single
rack, position the rack so that the food is in the center of
the oven.
The convection fan will be on during preheat and then
turn off and on occasionally as needed.
For best results when baking cakes using two oven
racks, place racks in positions 3 with offset rack and 5
using flat rack (See Figure 12).
When using two oven racks, position cookware as
shown in Figure 13. Allow at least 2-4 inches (5-10 cm)
of space between cookware for proper air circulation.
Dark or dull bakeware absorbs more heat than shiny
bakeware. It may be necessary to reduce oven temperature and cook time to prevent overbrowning of some
foods. Dark bakeware is recommended for pies. Shiny
bakeware is recommended for cakes, cookies, and
muffins.
Important: For batter and dough-based baked goods such
as cakes, pastries, and breads, use the convection function
for best results.

Figure 13: Pan spacing

Turn the oven temperature selector to 350°F.

The PREHEAT and the oven temperature light will turn

Convection

Roast

Convection convert automatically converts a standard
baking recipe for convection baking. Convection convert
may only be used with convection bake.This feature must
be set before selecting the oven mode and oven temperature by using the user preference setting in the oven
display.

Convection roast is best for cooking tender cuts of beef,
lamb, pork, and poultry. Use this mode when cooking speed
is desired. Convection roasting gently browns the exterior
and seals in the juices. Convection roasting uses the bake
element, convection element, broil element, and fan to
circulate the heat evenly and continuously within the oven.

Because convection baking generally cooks food faster
than normal baking, food items should be checked for
doneness before the suggested normal recipe cook times.

Convection roasting tips:

To set convection

Use a broiler pan and grid, as well as a roasting rack
(available by mail order). The broiler pan will catch
grease drippings, and the grid will help prevent spatters.
The roasting rack will hold the meat. Make sure the
roasting rack is securely seated on the grid in the broiler
pan. Do not use the broiler pan without the grid or cover
the grid with aluminum foil.

To change back to regular convection baking, repeat the
same steps in this process and press the + or- key until
OFF appears. Once the control accepts the change with a
chime, turn the oven mode selector to OFF.

•

Pull the rack out to the stop position before removing
food. Position food (fat side up) on the roasting rack.

•

Do not open the oven door often. Doing so will reduce
the temperature in the oven and may increase the
cooking time necessary for best results.

•

It is not recommended to roast chicken on a roasting
rack. Use a deep pan and place on rack position 1
(offset rack).

Should an oven fire occur, do not open oven door, turn off
the oven. If the fire continues, throw baking soda on the
fire or use a fire extinguisher. Do not put water or flour on
the fire. Flour may be explosive, and water can cause a
grease fire to spread and cause personal injury.
To set oven for convection roasting:
1.

Place meat on roasting rack and place in oven.

Meat Probe

Proper placement of probe in food.

Use the probe feature for best results when cooking foods
such as roasts, hams or poultry, using a probe to check
internal temperature is the safest method to ensure properly
cooked food. Before using the meat probe read the
important information listed here:

•

Insert the probe so that the probe tip rests inside the
center of the thickest part of meat or food (Figure 21 ).
For best results, do not allow the probe to contact bone,
fat, gristle, or the cookware.

•

For bone-in ham or lamb, insert the probe into the
center of lowest large muscle or joint.

•

For meatloaf or casseroles, insert the probe into center
of food.

•

When cooking fish, insert meat probe just above the gill.

•

For whole poultry or turkey, fully insert the probe into the
thickest part of the breast.

The probe feature must be set before setting the
cooking mode and oven temperature.
If a timer is running when the meat probe is plugged
in, the control will sound a triple beep once and the
timer will keep running. The timer must be canceled
before the probe temperature can be set.
If the meat probe is unplugged during cooking
function, or plugged in during BROIL, the oven will
stop cooking and turn off.
If the meat probe is plugged in while the oven is in a
function that allows for the meat probe, the control will
sound a triple beep indicating that the meat probe is
not allowed to be plugged in while the oven is
running. After the alert, the oven will continue to cook
to the set oven temperature.
If no cooking mode is selected within 30 seconds of
setting the target temperature, the oven mode
indicator light will stop blinking. The display will
continue to show the meat probe settings until an
allowable cooking cycle is selected.
When the meat probe is set correctly, the control will
signal an alert when the internal food temperature
reaches the desired set target temperature. When
active, the internal food temperature is visible in the
display during the cooking process. This eliminates
any guesswork or the need to open the oven door to
check the thermometer.
Note: If the meat probe is plugged while the oven is in a
function which allows probe cooking, it may be set the
following way:
1.

Cancel the active cooking function. The display will
show the meat probe icon and temperature 000 °.

The meat probe temperature can now be set and the
control will sound an acceptance chime. The oven
mode indicator light will blink until an allowable
cooking function is selected.

Figure 21: Placing probe in poultry
To set probe:
1.

Insert the probe into the food. Place prepared food on
the desired oven rack position and slide into the oven.

Power failure

while

using Sabbath

feature:

Should you experience a power failure or interruption, the
oven will shut off. When power is returned, SF (Sabbath
Failure) will be displayed, and the oven will not turn back on
automatically. If your food was nearly fully cooked, you may
allow the trapped heat in the oven to finish the cooking
process. Otherwise, you should remove the food when the
power failure occurs because you may only start the oven
once during the Sabbath/Jewish holidays.
After the Sabbath observance turn off the Sabbath feature.
Press and hold both the oven light and clock keys for at
least 3 seconds. SAb will disappear from the display, and
the oven may be used with all normal functions.

Adjusting

the Oven Temperature

The temperature in the oven is pre-set at the factory. When
first using the oven, be sure to follow recipe times and
temperatures.

Using the + or - key in the bottom of the display, press
until the desired temperature change (offset)is
reached. The display will change + 5 ° with each key
press to a maximum of + 35 ° or a minimum of - 35°F.

Do not use oven thermometers such as those found in
grocery stores to check the temperature settings inside
your oven. These oven thermometers may vary as much
i as 20 to 40 degrees from actual temperatures.
If you think the oven is cooking too hot or too cool for the
temperature you select, you can adjust the actual oven
temperature to be more or less than what is displayed by
accessing the UPO (User Programmable Offset).

Self Cleaning
A self cleaning oven cleans itself with temperatures well
above normal cooking temperatures which eliminate soils
completely or reduces them to a fine powdered ash you can
wipe away with a damp cloth.
While the oven is in operation, the oven heats to temperature much higher than those used in normal cooking.
Sounds of metal expansion and contraction are normal.
Odor is also normal because the food soil is being removed.
Smoke may appear through the oven vent.

Adhere to the following self clean precautions:
•

During the self cleaning cycle, the outside of the range
can become very hot to the touch. Do not leave small
children unattended near the appliance.
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.
Do not force the oven door open. This can damage the
automatic door locking system. Use caution when
opening the door after the self cleaning cycle is complete.
The oven may still be very hot

Do not use oven cleaners or oven protective coatings
in or around any part of the oven interior.
Do not clean the oven door gasket (Figure 27). The
woven material of the oven door gasket is essential
for a good seal. Care should be taken not to rub,
damage, or remove the gasket.

•

Do not use any cleaning materials on the oven door
gasket. Doing so could cause damage.

•

Remove the broiler pan and insert, all utensils, and
any aluminum foil. These items cannot withstand high
cleaning temperatures and will melt.
Completely remove all oven racks and any accessories. If the oven racks are not removed, they will lose
their special coating properties and no longer slide in
and out of the oven cavity easily.
Remove any excessive spills. Any spills on the oven
bottom should be wiped up and removed before
starting the self cleaning cycle. To clean, use hot,
soapy water and a cloth. Large spills 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.
These areas are shown in white (Figure 27).

Figure 27: Clean around the oven door gasket

To avoid possible burns, use care when opening the oven
door after the self-cleaning cycle. Stand to the side of the
oven when opening the door to allow hot air or steam to
escape.
Do not line the oven walls, racks, bottom, or any other
part of the range with aluminum foil. Doing so will destroy
heat distribution, produce poor baking results, and cause
permanent damage to the oven interior (aluminum foil will
melt to the interior surface of the oven).

Setting

Self Clean

If you are planning to use the oven directly after a self clean
cycle, remember to allow time for the oven to cool down
and the oven door to unlock. This normally takes about one
hour. A 3 hour self clean cycle will actually take about 4
hours to complete.
It is recommended to use a 2 hour self clean cycle for light
soils, a 3 hour cycle for average soils, and a 4 hour cycle for
heavy soils.
To set the controls for a 3 hour self clean cycle and
shut off automatically:
1.

Turn both the oven mode and oven temperature
selectors to CLEAN. The display will show a 3 hour
time (normal clean) and the -- and + keys.

Figure 30: Setting 4 hour clean
Once the control accepts the clean time the display will
flash a reminder for the user to REMOVE RACKS. The

Figure 31: Display prompting user to remove racks

Figure 28: Oven set for 3 hour clean
.

If a 3 hour clean is desired, the control will accept the
time within 3 seconds. However, the user may select a
2 or 4 hour clean by using the - or + keys to change to
the desired clean time and then allow the control to

REMOVE RACKS notification will flash for a few seconds
prompting the user to remove all oven racks. If the oven
door is opened as this time the display will show CLO to
indicate that the door must be closed before the clean cycle
can begin. If the door remains open for more than 3
minutes, the clean function will be canceled.

accept the change.

Figure 32: Message of open door that must be closed
before oven can begin the clean cycle
Figure 29: Setting 2 hour clean

When the oven is set to run the clean cycle, the motor door
lock will begin locking the oven door. Do not open the oven
door while the lock motor is running or when any locking
indicators or displays are showing. The oven door is
completely locked in about 15 seconds.

Once the door is closed the time of day will be visible
along with the selected clean time and the door lock
icon will be blinking in the display.

At this point CLn will appear in the display and the lock
icon will blink to signal the end of the clean cycle with a
chime. The internal oven temperature will still be hot
enough to cause burns.

Caution: Be careful when opening and stand to the side to
allow any steam and heat to escape.

Figure 33: Clean cycle in progress
4.

During the clean cycle the time of day remains in the
display and the time remaining in the clean cycle will
also be active.(Figure 33)

Figure 34: Hot oven after clean with door still locked
,

When the clean cycle ends the oven will be too hot for
the door to unlock until the oven cools to a safe temperature. This may take up to an hour. During this time the
display will show Hot along with the door lock icon.

Figure 35: Clean lock icon blinks as door unlocks

Note: Once the clean cycle ends the oven will not be
available for another clean for 4 hours.
To cancel a self clean before it ends:
Turn both the oven selector knob and the oven temperature
knob to the OFF position.

Cleaning

Various

Parts of Your Oven

Before cleaning any part of the oven, be sure all controls are turned off and the oven is cool. Remove spills and any
heavy soiling as soon as possible. Regular cleaning will reduce the number of major cleanings later.
Surface Type

Recommendation

Aluminum and Vinyl

Use hot, soapy water and a cloth. Dry with a clean cloth.

Painted and plastic control knobs
Painted body parts
Painted decorative trims

Using a soft cloth, clean with mild dish detergent and water or a 50/50 solution of
vinegar and water. Follow by rinsing the area with clean water; dry and polish with a
soft cloth. Glass cleaners may be used if sprayed on a soft cloth first. Do not spray
liquids directly on the oven control and display area.

Control panel

Do not use large amounts of water on the control panel - excess water on the control
area may cause damage to the appliance. Do not use other liquid cleaners, abrasive
cleaners, scouring pads, or paper towels - they will damage the finish.

Control knobs

To remove control knobs, turn to the OFF position; grasp firmly and pull straight off
the shaft. To replace knobs after cleaning, line up the knob markings with the
matching markings on the control panel; then push the knobs into place. On the
single burner knobs line up the OFF markings before replacing the knobs.

Your oven finish may be made with stainless steel (some models). Clean the
stainless with warm soapy water using a clean sponge or cloth. Rinse with clean
water and dry with a soft clean cloth.

Smudge Proof TMStainless Steel
(some models)

Do not use cleaners containing any abrasive, chlorides, chlorine, or ammonia. It is
recommended to use mild dish soap and water or a 50/50 solution of water and
vinegar.
Porcelain enamel broiler pan and
insert (available by mail order)
Oven interior (Porcelain)
Door liner and body parts

Gentle scouring with a soapy scouring pad will remove most spots. Rinse with a 1:1
solution of clear water and ammonia. If necessary, cover difficult spots with an
ammonia-soaked paper towel for 30 to 40 minutes.
Rinse with clean water and a damp cloth, and then scrub with a soap-filled scouring
pad. Rinse and wipe dry with a clean cloth. Remove all cleaners or the porcelain may
become damaged during future heating.

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 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. On self-clean models, 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.

Cooktop

Maintenance

Cooktop

Cleaning

Consistent and proper cleaning is essential to maintaining
your ceramic glass cooktop.
Prior to using your cooktop for the first time, apply the
recommended CookTop® Cleaning Creme to the ceramic
surface. Buff with a non-abrasive cloth or sponge. 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.

•

Use cookware with dirt or dirt build up on bottom;
replace with clean cookware before using.

•

Use your cooktop as a cutting board or work surface in
the kitchen.

•

Cook foods directly on the cooktop surface without a
pan.

•

Drop heavy or hard objects on the ceramic glass
cooktop, they may cause it to crack.

Do 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.

Before cleaning the cooktop, be sure the controls are
turned to OFF and the cooktop is cool. The glass surface
could be hot and burns may occur if the glass surface is

For light to moderate soil:
Apply a few drops of CookTop® Cleaning Creme directly to
the cooktop. Use a paper towel or use a non-abrasive cloth
or sponge to clean the entire cooktop surface. Make sure
the cooktop is cleaned thoroughly, leaving no residue.
For heavy, burned on soil:
Apply a few drops of CookTop® Cleaning Creme directly to
the soiled area. Rub the soiled area using a non-abrasive
cleaning tool, applying pressure as needed. Do not use the
pad you use to clean the cooktop for any other purpose.
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.

Figure 37: Cooktop cleaning

Figure 36: Cooktop care

Cooktop

Maintenance

(cont'd)

Plastic or foods with a high sugar content 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.

General Cleaning
Refer to "Cleaning Various Parts of Your Oven" on page 30
for more detailed information about cleaning specific parts
of the range.

Before manually cleaning any part of the range, be sure
all controls are turned off and the range is cool. The range _i
may be hot and can cause burns.

Do not use the following on the cooktop:
•

Do not use abrasive cleaners and scouring pads, such
as metal and some nylon pads. They may scratch the
cooktop, making it more difficult to clean.

•

Do not use harsh cleaners, such as chlorine bleach,
ammonia or oven cleaners, as they may etch or discolor
the cooktop.

•

Do not use dirty sponges, cloths or paper towels, as
they can leave soil or lint on the cooktop which can burn
and cause discoloration.

Ammonia must be rinsed before operating the oven.
Provide adequate ventilation.

Aluminum Foil and Utensils

Never cover any slots, holes, or passages in the
oven bottom or cover an entire oven rack with
materials such as aluminum foil. Aluminum foil
