touch, or let clothing or other flammable materials touch
these areas until they have had sufficient time to cool.
Among these areas are the cooktop, surfaces facing the
cooktop, the oven vent openings and surfaces near
these openings, oven door and window.
• Wear proper apparel--Loose=fitting or hanging
garments should never be worn while using the
appliance. Do not let clothing or other flammable
materials contact hot surfaces.
• Do not use water or flour on grease fires--Smother
the fire with a pan lid, or use baking soda, a dry
chemical or foam-type extinguisher.
• When heating fat or grease, watch it closely. Fat or
grease may catch fire if allowed to become too hot.
in case of fire or gas leak, be sure to turn
off the main gas shutoff valve.
• Use only dry potholders--Moist
or damp potholders
on hot surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do
not let potholders touch hot heating elements. Do not use
a towel or other bulky cloth instead of a potholder.
• Do not heat unopened food containers--BuiJdup
of
pressure may cause container to burst and result in
injury.
• Remove the oven door from any unused range if it is
to be stored or discarded.
IMPORTANT--Do
not attempt to operate the oven during
a power failure. If the power fails, always turn the oven
off. If the oven is not turned off and the power resumes, the
oven may begin to operate again. Food left unattended
could catch fire or spoil.
Use proper flame size--Adjust
flame size
so it does not extend beyond the edge of the utensil.
The use of undersized utensils will expose a portion of the
burner flame to direct contact and may result in ignition of
clothing. Proper relation of utensil to flame will also improve
cooking efficiency.
Do not use stove top grills on the burner
grates of sealed gas burners, if you use a stove top grill on
a sealed gas burner, it will cause incomplete combustion
and can result in exposure to carbon monoxide levels above
allowable current standards. This can be hazardous to your
health.
Electronic controllers can be damaged by
cold temperatures. When you use your appliance for the
first time, or if it has not been used for a long period of
time, make sure that it has been exposed to a
temperature above 0°C/32°F for at least 3 hours before
connecting it to the power supply.

IMPORTANT
INSTRUCTIONS
YOUR COOKTOP

FOR USING

• Know which knob controls each surface heating unit.
Always turn the knob to the LITE position when igniting
the burners. Visually check that burner has lit. Then
adjust the flame so it does not extend beyond the edge of
the utensil.

• Use proper pan size. This appliance is equipped with one
or more surface burners of different sizes. Select utensils
having flat bottoms large enough to cover the surface
burner. The use of undersized utensils will expose a portion
of the surface burner to direct contact and may result in
ignitionof clothing. Proper relationship of utensil to the
surface burner will also improve efficiency.
• Utensil handles should be turned inward and not
extend over adjacent surface burners--To reduce the risk
of burns, ignitionof 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 burners.
• Never leave surface burners unattended at high heat
settings--Boilovers
cause smoking and greasy spillovers
that may ignite, or a pan that has boiled dry may melt.
• Protective liners--Do not use aluminum foil to line oven
bottom or any other part of the appliance. Only use
aluminum foil as recommended for baking if used as a
cover placed on the food. Any other use of protective
liners or aluminum foil may result in a risk of electric
shock or fire or short circuit.
• Glazed cooking utensils--Only
certain types of glass,
glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed
utensils are suitable for rangetop service without breaking
due to the sudden change in temperature. Check the
manufacturer's recommendations for rangetop use.
= Do not use decorative surface burner covets. If a
burner is accidentally turned on, the decorative cover will
become hot and possibly melt. Burns will occur if the hot
covers are touched. Damage may also be done to the
cooktop or burners because the covers may cause
overheating. Air will be blocked from the burner and
cause combustion problems.

FOR GLASS

COOKTOPS

ONLY

• Do not clean or operate a broken cooktop--lf
cooktop
should break, cleaning solutions and spillovers may
penetrate the broken cooktop and create a risk of electric
shock. Contact a qualified technician immediately.
• Clean cooktop glass 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
harmful fumes if applied to a hot surface.
• Avoid scratching the cooktop glass with sharp
objects.

IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING
YOUR OVEN
• 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/warmer d rawer.
• Keep oven vent ducts unobstructed.
The oven vent is
located under the cooktop. 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.

important Safety instructions
• Placement of oven/warmer drawer (if equipped) racks.
Always place oven racks in desired location while oven/
warmer drawer (if equipped) 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/warmer drawer (if equipped).
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.
• Do not touch a hot light bulb with a damp cloth. Doing
so could cause the bulb to break. Disconnect the
appliance or turn off the power to the appliance before
removing and replacing light bulb.

iMPORTANT
iNSTRUCTiONS
YOUR RANGE

SELF CLEANING

OVENS

• in the self-Cleaning cycle only clean the parts listed in
this Use and Care Guide. 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.
Remove oven racks. Oven racks color will change if left
in the oven during a self-cleaning cycle.
®

The health of some birds is extremely
sensitive to the fumes given off during the selfcleaning cycle of the range. Move the birds to another
well ventilated room.

FOR CLEANING

• Clean the range regularly to keep all parts free of
grease that could catch fire. Exhaust fan ventilation
hoods and grease filters should be kept clean. Do not
allow grease to accumulate on hood or filter. Greasy
deposits in the fan could catch fire. When you are flaming
food under the hood, turn the fan on. Refer to the hood
manufacturer's instructionsfor cleaning.

Burner Flame Size

For most cooking, start on the highest control setting and then turn to a
lower one to complete the process. Use the recommendations below as a
guide for determining proper flame size for various types of cooking. The
size and type of utensil used and the amount of food being cooked will
influence the setting needed for cooking.

*These settings are based on using medium-weight
metal or

of pans. The color of the flame is the key to proper burner adjustment. A
good flame is clear, blue and hardly visible in a well-lighted room. Each

Never extend the flame beyond the outer edge of the utensil. A higher
flame wastes heat and energy and increases your risk of being burned
by the flame (Figure 2).
For deep fat frying, use a thermometer and adjust the surface control
knob accordingly. If the fat is too cool, the food will absorb the fat and be
greasy. If the fat is too hot, the food will brown quickly and the center will be
undercooked. Do not attempt to deep fat fry too much food at once as the
food will neither brown nor cook properly.

Convection

(cont'd)

Bake

Use the Convection Bake feature when fast cooking is desired. The oven can be
programmed for Convection baking at any temperature between 170°F and
550°F. Convection baking uses a fan to circulate the oven's heat evenly and
continuously within the oven (See Figure 1). This improved heat distribution
allows for fast, even cooking and browning results at a lower temperature than
conventional bake. It also gives better baking results when using 2 or 3 racks at
the same time. Breads and pastries brown more evenly. Convection bake cooks
most foods faster and more evenly than conventional bake. For baking
efficiency, the fan rotates slower in Convection Bake than in Convection Roast.
GeneraJ Convection Bake instructions
1. Adjust the cook time for desired doneness as needed. Time reductions will
vary depending on the amount and type of food to be cooked. Cookies and
biscuits should be baked on pans with no sides or very low sides to allow
heated air to circulate around the food. Food baked on pans with a dark
finish will cook faster.
Preheating is not necessary when cooking casseroles with Convection Bake.
When using Convection Bake with a single rack, place oven rack in position

Probe

(cont'd)
Feature

For many foods, especially roasts and poultry, testing the internal temperature is the best method to insure properly
cooked food. The Temperature Probe gets the exact temperature you desire without having to guess.
iMPORTANT:
1. Use only the probe supplied with your appliance; any other may result in damage to the probe or the appliance.
2. Handle the Temperature Probe carefully when inserting and removing it from the food and outlet.
3. Do not use tongs to pull the cable when inserting or removing the Probe. It could damage the Probe.
4. Defrost your food completely before inserting the Probe to avoid breaking it.
5. Never leave or store the Temperature Probe inside the oven when not in use.
6. To prevent the possibility of burns, carefully unplug the Temperature Probe using hot pads.
Proper Temperature Probe Placement:
1. Always insert the probe so that the tip rests in the center of the thickest part of the
meat. Do not allow probe to touch bone, fat, gristle or pan.
2. For bone-in ham or lamb, insert the Probe into the center of the lowest large muscle or
joint. For dishes such as meat loaf or casseroles, insert the Probe into the center of the
food. When cooking fish, insert the Probe from just above the gill into the meatiest
area, parallel to the backbone.
3. For whole poultry (chicken, turkey, etc.), insert the probe into the thickest part of the
inner thigh from below and parallel to the leg (see figure 1).

Setting the Oven When using the Temperature Probe:
t.
Preheat the oven to the desired temperature.
2. insert the Temperature Probe into the food (see Proper Temperature Probe Placement above).
3. After the oven has reached the desired temperature, place the food into the oven.
4. The oven will be hot, so wear an oven mitt and plug the Temperature Probe into its outlet in the oven. (The outlet is
located on the left front side of the oven cavity ceiling). Make sure it is pushed all the way into the outlet. Close the

broiler insert with foil. The exposed grease could ignite.
Arrange the interior oven rack and place the broiler pan on the rack. Be sure to center the
broiler pan directly under the broiler element. Make sure the oven door is in the broil
stop position (See Figure 2).
Turn both the selector and the temperature control knobs to the Broil position.
ifa lower broil temperature is desired (minimum allowed broil temperature is 400°F), turn
the temperature control knob to the temperature desired.
Broil on one side until food is browned; turn and cook on the second side. Season and
serve. Note: Always pull the rack out to the stop position before turning or removing food.
To cancel broiling or if finished broiling, turn the selector and the temperature control
knobs to Off position.

Broiling

Times

and Searing

Grill

Use the following table for approximate broiling times. Increase or decrease broiling times, or
move the broiling pan to a different rack position to suit for doneness. If the food you are
broiling is not listed in the table, follow the instructions provided in your cookbook and watch
the item closely. Use the Searing Grill for meats and steaks if desired. Place Searing Grill on
top of Broiler Pan and Insert before placing the meat. Be sure to pre-heat the Searing Grill
using Broil for 10 minutes. Cook times should be reduced 1-2 minutes per side when cooking
with the Searing Grill for meats and steaks (See Figure 3).
IMPORTANT: When in broiling mode, a very audible high speed cooling fan will turn on and
may continue for some minutes after broiling is finished.

Self=Cleaning
During the self-cleaning cycle,
the outside of the wall oven 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-clean cycle of any wall oven.
Move birds to another well ventilated room.
DO NOT line the oven walls,
racks, bottom or any other part of the
appliance with aluminum foil. Doing so will
destroy heat distribution, produce poor baking
results and cause permanent damage to the
interior (aluminum foil will melt to the interior
surface of the oven).
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
completed. The oven may still be VERY
HOT.

_

Clean Frame

Self=Cleaning
Oven
A Self-Cleaning oven cleans itself with high temperatures (well above
cooking temperatures) which eliminate soils completely or reduces them
to a fine powdered ash you can wipe away with a damp cloth.
Adhere to the following cleaning precautions:
•
Allow the oven to cool before cleaning.
=

Wear rubber gloves when cleaning any exterior parts of the oven
manually.

•

DO NOT clean the oven door gasket. 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 ladder racks, oven racks and meat probe during
self-cleaning. These items will be permanently damaged by the
high cleaning temperatures.
If the racks are not removed, the selfclean cycle will cause them to discolor and make them difficult to
slide. If this occurs, coat the racks with cooking oil to make them
easier to slide again.
Remove any excessive spillovers in the oven cavity before
starting the Self-Cleaning 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 do not heat sufficiently to burn soil on. Clean
with soap and water.

DO Hand
CleanDoor
DO NOT Hand Clean
Oven Door Gasket

NOTE: Prior to setting the Self-Clean cycle, any spills remaining on the
oven bottom should be removed.

Note: See additional cleaning information for
the oven door in the General Care &
Cleaning

section.

The oven broil element may appear to have cooled after it
has been turned OFF. The element may still be hot and burns may
occur if this element is touched before it has cooled sufficiently.
What to Expect during Cleaning
While the oven is in operation, the oven heats to temperatures much
higher than those used in normal cooking. Sounds of metal expansion
and contraction are normal. Odor is also normal as the food soil is being
removed. Smoke may appear through the oven vent.
If heavy spillovers are not wiped up before cleaning, they may flame and
cause more smoke and odor than usual. This is normal and safe and
should not cause alarm. If available, use an exhaust fan during the selfcleaning cycle.

Cycle Time Length

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 11/2hour. So a self-clean cycle (3 hours) will actually take about 41/2hours to
complete. The time remaining for the self-clean cycle will be displayed in the oven
control display.

Adjusting Oven Temperature
The temperature calibration in the oven has been pre-set at the factory. When first using the oven, be sure to follow recipe
times and 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. Before adjusting, test a recipe by using a
temperature setting that is higher or lower than the recommended temperature. The baking results should help you to
decide how much of an adjustment is needed.
