or foam-type
extinguisher.
= When heating fat or grease, watch it closely. Fat or
grease may catch fire if allowed to become too hot.

cause smoking and greasy spillovers
that may ignite, or a pan that has boiled dry may melt.
Never cover any slots, holes or passages in the
oven bottom or cover an entire rack with materials such as
alminum foil. Doing so blocks air flow through the oven and may
cause carbon monoxide poisoning. Aluminum foil linings may also
trap heat, causing a fire hazard.
Glazed cooking utensilsiOnly
certain types of glass,
glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed
utensils are suitable for rangetop service without breaking

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

IMPORTANT--Do
not attempt to operate the oven during
a power failure. If the power fails, always turn the oven

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

FOR USING

• Use care when opening oven door--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 cooktop. Touching the surfaces in this
area when the oven is operating may cause severe burns.
Also, do not place plastic or heat-sensitive

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 ignition of clothing.

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.
• 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.

Release the knob and rotate to the LITE position. Note: All four
electronic surface ignitors will spark at the same time. However, only
the burner you are turning on will ignite.
Visually check that the burner has a flame.
Turn the control knob counterclockwise
to the desired flame size. The
control knobs do not have to be set at a particular setting. Use the knob

Setting

Proper Surface

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.
*Flame Size

Type of Cooking

High Flame
Medium Flame

Start most foods; bring water to a boil; pan broiling.
Maintain a slow boil; thicken sauces, gravies; steaming.

Low Flame

Keep foods cooking; poach; stewing.

*These settings are based on using medium=weight metal or
aluminum pans with lids. Settings may vary when using other types
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
cone of flame should be steady and sharp. Clean burner if flame is yelloworange.
Regardless of size, always select cookware that is suitable for the amount
and type of food being prepared. Select a burner and flame size
appropriate to the pan. Never allow flames to extend beyond the outer
edge of the pan.
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).

Proper
flame size

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 300°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 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. For baking
efficiency, the fan rotates slower in Convection Bake than in Convection Roast.
Note: Allow 6 minutes for the convection fan to start rotating.

Bake Instructions

Adjust the cook time for desired doneness as needed. 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 8. If cooking on multiple racks, place the oven racks in positions 6

the Temperature

Probe

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).

Figure 1

Setting the Oven When using the Temperature Probe:
1. 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
oven door.

The oven has a Bread Proof feature that can be used to
help prepare bread dough. The recommended length of
time to keep bread dough in the oven is about 45-60
minutes. Be sure however to follow the recipe's
recommended times. The prepared bread dough should
be placed in a large bowl since the dough will nearly
double in volume. Arrange the oven rack in the lowest

Broil

When broiling, heat radiates downward from the oven broiler for even coverage. The Broil feature is preset to start
broiling at 550°F; however, the Broil feature temperature may be set between 400°F and 550°F. This appliance includes
a Searing Grill for searing meats (Figure 3). The broil pan and broil pan insert used together allow dripping grease to
drain and be kept away from the high heat of the oven broiler. DO NOT use the broil pan without the insert (See Figure
1). DO NOT cover the broil pan insert with foil. The exposed grease could catch fire.
Should an oven fire occur, leave the oven door closed and 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.

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.

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
self-clean 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 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.

Self-Cleaning
Self-Clean

(cont'd)

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 1V2 hour. So a self-clean cycle (3 hours) will actually take about 4V2
hours to complete. The time remaining for the self-clean cycle will be displayed in
the oven control display.

To set the controls

for a Self-Cleaning

cycle

Be sure the oven door is closed.
Turn both, the selector and the temperature control knobs to (::lean position.
As soon as the control is set, the motor driven oven door lock will begin to close

automatically. While the door is locking, the @ icon will flash and then will
remain visible for the entire self-clean cycle.
Note: Allow about 15 seconds for the oven door lock to close.

When the Self-Clean

is Completed

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 force the
oven door open. This can
damage the automatic door
locking system. Use caution and
avoid possible burns when
opening the door after the SelfCleaning cycle has completed.
The oven may still be VERY
HOT.

Turn the selector and the temperature control knobs back to Off position.
Once the oven has cooled down for approximately lY2 HOUR, the oven door
can then be opened. While the door is unlocking, the @ icon will flash and then
will disappear from the oven control display.

Stopping

or Interrupting

a Self-Cleaning

Cycle

if it becomes necessary to stop or interrupt a self-cleaning cycle due to excessive
smoke or fire in the oven:
1.
2.

Turn the selector and the temperature control knobs to Off position.
The oven door can only be opened after the oven has cooled down for
approximately 1V2HOUR.

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.

cleaning stainless steel. Always be sure to rinse the cleaners from the surface as
bluish stains may occur during heating that cannot be removed.

Porcelain Enamel,
Broiler Pan and insert,
Door Liner, 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. DO NOT use spray oven cleaners on the cooktop.

Oven Racks

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 self-clean 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.

Oven Door

Use soap & 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.

Prior to using your cooktop for the first time, apply the recommended CookTop® Cleaning Creme to the ceramic surface
(on the web visit www.sears.com
for replacement cooktop cleaner, item number 40079). Buff with a non-abrasive cloth
or no-scratch cleaning 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, because they may cause it to crack.

Cleaning

Recommendations

for the Ceramic

Glass

Cooktop

Before cleaning the cooktop, be sure the controls are turned to OFF and the cooktop is COOL,
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.

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 plastic
type no-scratch cleaning pad 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
plastic type no=scratch cleaning pad, 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 the loosened soils, then
apply cooktop cleaning cream and use a paper towel
or the non-abrasive pad to buff the surface clean.
iMPORTANT NOTE: Damage to the ceramic glass
cooktop may occur if you use an abrasive type
scratch pad. Only use cleaning products that have
been specifically designed for ceramic glass cooktop.
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, wear a mitt
and use a razor blade scraper or a metal spatula to
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 Care & Cleaning (cont'd)
Do not use the following
