.Do Not Leave Children Alone--Children should not be
left alone or unattended in the area where appliance is ........
in use. They should never be allowed to sit or stand on any ::
part of the appliance. ;'::
.DO NOTTOUCH SURFACE UNITS,AREAS NEARTHESE
UNITS, HEATING ELEMENTS OR iNTERIOR SURFACES
OF THE OVEN. Both surface units and oven heating elements
may be hot even though they are dark in color. Areas near
surface units may become hot enough to cause burns. During
and after use, do not touch, or let clothing or otherfiammable
materials touch these areas until they have had sufficient time
to cool. Among these areas are the cook top, surfaces facing
the cook top, the oven vent openings and surfaces near these
openings, oven door and window.

important Safety instructions
iMPORTANT iNSTRUCTiONS FOR USING YOUR
COOKTOP
Knowwhich 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 isturned 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 underaventilating hood, turn the fan on.
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.
• 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 (some models). 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 insertwith 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.
SELF CLEANING 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 orfilter. 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.

Before Setting Oven Controls (conrd)
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. Heat is transferred up through the surface of the cooktop to the cookware. Only fiat-
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.

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.
NOTE: Please read detailed instructions for ceramic glass cooktop cleaning in the General Care & Cleaning and Before
You Call checklist sections of this Use & Care Guide.
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 will occur more often if the cookware
is too small for the radiant element or if the cookware bottom is not flat.
ELEMENT ON and Hot Surface Indicator Lights
Your appliance is equipped with two different types of radiant surface control indicator
lights that will glow on your range-- the ELEMENT ON indicator light and the Hot
Surface indicator lights (See illustration at left).
The ELEMENT ON located on the control panel and will glow when a surface element is
turned ON. A quick glance at this indicator light after cooking is an easy check to be
sure ALL surface controls are turned OFF.
The Hot Surface indicator lights located above each surface radiant control knob
will glow as the surface cooking area heats up and will REMAIN ON until the glass
cooktop has cooled to a MODERATE level.
| _ELEMENT ON

Using the Air Guard TM feature (some models)
Your appliance is equipped with a catalytic oven exhaust cleaner that may be turned
on during any active cooking process. This feature helps remove smoke and eliminates
85% of the odors generated when using your oven.
If you wish to have AirGuard TM clean the oven exhaust once cooking has started, press
the @ key.
Note: The AirGuard TM indicator light will glow anytime the AirGuard TM is active. AirGuard TM will turn on and cannot be
manually turned off dudng the Self-cleaning cycle.
Setting Surface Controls
To Operate Single Radiant Surface Elements (all models)
To Operate a Single Radiant Element:
1. Place correctly sized cookware on the radiant surface element.
2. Push in and turn the surface control knob in either direction to the desired setting (See
Fig. 1). 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
surface heating area extending beyond the bottom edge of the cookware indicates the
cookware is too small for the surface heating area.
3. When cooking is complete, 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 this indicator light when cooking is finished is an easy
check to be sure all control knobs are turned OFF. The Hot 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.

LOW (LO - 1) Keep warm, melt, simmer
Note: The size and type of utensil used, and the amount and type of food being
cooked will influence the setting needed for best cooking results.
Setting the Warmer (Warm & Ready TM) Zone (some models)
The purpose of the Warmer 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 Warmer Zone.
All food placed on the Warmer 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 Warmer Zone.
Unlike the surface elements, the Warmer Zone will not glow red
when it is hot.
Always use potholders or oven mitts when removing food from
the warm zone as cookware and plates will be hot.
Setting the Warmer (Warm & Ready TM) Zone Control
1. To set the control, push in either direction and turn the knob (See Fig 2).
The temperatures are approximate, and are designated by HI, MED and
LO. However, the control can be set at any position between HI and LO for
different levels of heating.
2. When ready to serve, turn the control to OFF. The Warmer Zone will remain
warm until the indicator light goes OFF.
Temperature Selection - Refer to the chart at the side column for
recommended heating levels. If a particular food is not listed, start with the
medium level, and adjust as needed. Most foods can be kept at serving
temperatures by using the medium level.
Note:use the warmer Zone to keep Cooked foods hOt such as; Vegetables;
gravies, casseroles, soups, stews, breads, pastries and oven:safe dinner plates.

To Set the Cooktop Lockout Feature (some models) _ CooktOPLockout
The (_) pad is used to activate the Cooktop Lockout feature which wiil lock all surface elements from being accidentally
turned ON. This feature wiil only lock the cooktop.
To turn the Cooktop Lockout Feature ON:
1. BE SURE ALL surface element controls are set to the OFF position.
2. Press and hold (0_ until one beep is heard (after 3 seconds). If a triple beep sounds instead, check all surface
elements and turn them to the OFF position and repeat this step. The Cooktop Locked indicator light will turn ON and the
cooktop controls and functions are locked out until the cooktop is unlocked.
To turn the Cooktop Lockout Feature OFF:
1. BE SURE ALL surface element controls are set to the OFF position.
2. Press and hold _0 until one beep is heard (after 3 seconds). If a triple beep sounds instead, check all surface
elements and turn them to the OFF position and repeat this step. The Cooktop Locked indicator light will turn OFF and the
cooktop may be used normally. Note: Starting a Self-Clean cycle will also turn ON the Cooktop Lockout feature. The
cooktop will remain locked until the Self-Clean cycle has completed and the oven door has unlocked. If a power failure
occurs after the Cooktop Lockout has been activated, you must turn OFF the Cooktop Lockout feature before being able to
use the cooktop features again.
Using proper cookware
The size and type of cookware used will influence the setting
needed for best cooking results. Cookware should have flat
bottoms that make good contact with the entire surface heating
element (See Fig. 2). Check for flatness by rotating a ruler across
the bottom of the cookware (See Fig. 3).
Cookware Material 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
& 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. May
leave metal marks on ceramic glass (see Aluminum above).
STAINLESS STEEL- Slow heat conductor with uneven cooking
results. Is durable, easy to clean and resists staining.
CAST IRON - A poor 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.
GLASS - Slow heat conductor. Not recommended for ceramic
cooktop surfaces because it may scratch the glass.
Be sure to follow the
recommendations for using
proper cookware as illustrated in
Figs. 2 & 3. For more information
about the ceramic cooktop see
"Cooktop Cleaning &
Maintenance" in the General
Care & Cleaning section. Fig. 3
Important Note: DO NOT place EMPTY
aluminum, glass or porcelain-enamel coated
cookware on the ceramic cooktop! The melting
point of cookware made with these materials may be
reached quickly especially if left empty & 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.

Surface Cooking (cont'd)
Using TurboBoii TM (some models)
The TurboBoiF Mfeature uses a higher wattage surface radiant element which
can bring food items to boil much quicker. The left front radiant element will be
clearly marked if this feature is available on your range (See Fig. 1). If equipped
with the TurboBoil TM feature, place the cookware to boil on the left front surface
element and follow the instructions "To Operate a Single Radiant Element" in

Self-Cleaning
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
tOO m,
DO NOT line the oven walls, racks, OVEN
BOTTOM or any part of the range with aluminum foil.
Doing so will destroy heat distribution, produce poor baking
results & cause permanent damage to the oven 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.
Prepare for the Self-Cleaning Cycle with the following
precautions:
. DO NOT use oven cleaners or oven protective coatings
in or around any part of the Self-Cleaning oven.
. 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 broiler pan &insert, all utensils & ANY
aluminum foil. These items cannot withstand high
cleaning temperatures.
. Remove the oven racks. If the racks are left in the oven
during the Self-Clean cycle their color will turn slightly
blue & the finish will be dull. After the cycle is complete
and the oven has cooled, rub the sides of the oven
racks with wax paper or a cloth containing a small
amount of salad oil (this will make the oven racks glide
easier into the oven rack positions).
. 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 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 bottom should be removed.

General Care & Cleaning (cont'd)
Ceramic Glass Cooktop Cleaning & Maintenance
Consistent and proper cleaning is
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, they
may cause it to crack.
Cleaning Recommendations for 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 loosened soils with cooktop cleaning cream and buff surface
clean.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Damage to the ceramic glass cooktop may occur if you use an abrasive type
cleaning pad. Only use cleaning products that have been specifically designed for ceramic glass
cooktops.
Plastic or foods with ahigh 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.
Do not use the following on the ceramic glass 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.
Special Caution for Aluminum Use on the Ceramic Cooktop:
. Aluminum Foil =Use of aluminum foil on a hot cooktop will damage the ceramic
cooktop. Do not use thin aluminum cooking utensils or allow aluminum foil to touch
the ceramic cooktop under ANY circumstances.
. Aluminum utensils - The melting point of aluminum is much lower than that of
other metals. Care must be taken when aluminum pots or pans are used on the
cooktop. If allowed to boil dry, not only will the utensil be destroyed, but it may fuse
to, break or mark the ceramic glass surface, permanently damaging the cooktop
surface. 20

Before You Call
Solutions to Common Problems
Before you call for service, review the following list. It may save you time & expense. The list includes common occurrences
(shown in bold) that are not the result of defective workmanship or materials in this appliance. The possible corrections to these
problems are provided with the problem listed:
Range is not level = (1) Poor installation. Place oven rack in
center of oven. Place a level on the oven rack. Adjust leveling
legs at base of range until the oven rack is level. (2) Be sure
floor is level, strong & stable enough to adequately support
range. (3) If floor is sagging or sloping, contact a carpenter to
correct the situation. (4) Kitchen cabinet alignment may make
range appear not level. Be sure cabinets are square & have
sufficient room for range clearance.
Cannot move a_pliance easily. Appliance must be accessible
for service = (1) Cabinets not square or are built in too tightly.
Contact builder or installer to make appliance accessible. (2)
Carpet interferes with range. Provide sufficient space so range
can be lifted over carpet.
Surface element too hot or not hot enoucLhh=Incorrect control
setting. Be sure the correct control is ON for the element to be
used.
Surface element does not heat = (1) Lightweight or warped
pans used. Use only flat, evenly balanced, medium or
heavyweight cookware. Flat pans heat better than warped
pans. Cookware materials and weight of the material affect
heating. Heavy & medium-weight pans heat evenly. Because
lightweight pans heat unevenly, foods may burn easily. (2) No
power to the appliance. Check steps under "Entire Appliance
Does Not Operate" in this checklist. (3) Incorrect control
setting. Make sure the correct control is ON for the surface
element to be used.
Entire_pliance does not operate = (1) The time of day is not
set. The time of day must first be set in order to operate the
oven. See "To Set the Clock" in the Setting Oven Controls
section.(2) Make sure cord/plug is plugged correctly into outlet.
(3) Service wiring is not complete. Call I=SO0=4=MY=HOME®
for assistance (See back cover). (4) Electrical power outage.
Check house lights to be sure. Call your local electric company
for service.
Oven does not operate = Be sure the oven controls are set
properly for the desired function. See Setting Oven Controls in
this Use & Care Manual or read the instructions "Entire
appliance does not operate" in this checklist.
Oven light does not work (some models) = Replace or tighten
bulb. See Changing Oven Light section inthis Use & Care Manual.
Oven control beeps and dis Ii_a_ysany "F" code error (for
example Fll) = Electronic control has detected a fault
condition. Press CLEAR/OFF to clear the display & stop
beeping. Reprogram oven. If fault recurs, record fault number.
Press CLEAR/OFF & call I=8O0=4=MY=HOME® for assistance
(See back cover).
Flames inside oven or smoking from oven vent =Excessive
spillovers in oven. For example this will happen for pie
spillovers or large amounts of grease left on the oven bottom.
Wipe up excessive spillovers before starting oven. If flames or
excessive smoke are present see "Broiling" in the Setting
Oven Controls section.
Oven smokes excessively during broiling = (1) Control(s) not
set properly. Follow Broil instructions under Setting Oven
Controls. (2) Make sure oven door is opened to broil stop
position. (3) Meat too close to the broil element. Reposition the
broil rack to provide proper clearance between the meat & the
element. Preheat the broil element for searing. (4) Meat not
properly prepared. Remove excess fat from meat. Cut fatty
edges to prevent curling, but do not cut into lean. (5) Insert on
broiler pan wrong side up & grease not draining. Always place
grid on the broiler pan with ribs up & slots down to allow grease
to drip into pan (some models). (6) Grease has built up on oven
surfaces. Regular cleaning is necessary when broiling
frequently. Old grease or food spatters cause excessive
smoking.
Poor baking results = Many factors affect baking results. Make
sure the proper oven rack position is used. Center food in the
oven & space pans to allow air to circulate. Allow the oven to
preheat to the set temperature before placing food in the oven.
Try adjusting the recipe's recommended temperature or baking
time. If you feel the oven is too hot or cool, see Adjusting Your
Oven Temperature in this Use & Care Manual.
Soil not completely removed after Self=Cleanin_cle =
Failure to clean bottom, front top of oven, frame of oven or door
area outside oven seal. These areas are not in the Self-
Cleaning area, but get hot enough to burn on residue. Clean
these areas before the Self-Cleaning cycle is started. Burned-
on residue can be cleaned with a stiff nylon brush and water or
a nylon scrubber. Be careful not to damage the oven gasket.
Self=Cleaningc3/cle does not work =(1) Oven control not set
properly. Follow instructions under Self=Cleaning. (2) Self-
Cleaning cycle was interrupted. Follow steps under "Stopping
or Interrupting a Self-Cleaning Cycle" under Self=Cleaning.
Metal marks (Ceramic Cooktop models) = Sliding or scraping
of metal utensils on cooktop surface. Do not slide metal
utensils on cooktop surface. Use a ceramic-glass cooktop
cleaning creme to remove the marks. See "Cooktop Cleaning
and Maintenance" in the Care & Cleaning section.
Scratches or abrasions on cooktop surface (Ceramic
Cooktop models) = (1) Coarse particles such as salt or sand
between cooktop and utensils can cause scratches. Be sure
cooktop surface and bottoms of utensils are clean before
usage. Small scratches do not affect cooking and will become
less visible with time. (2) Cleaning materials not recommended
for ceramic-glass cooktop have been used. See "Cooktop
Cleaning & Maintenance." (3) Cookware with rough bottom has
been used. Use smooth, flat-bottomed cookware.
Brown streaks or specks on cooktop surface (Ceramic
Cooktop models) = Boilovers are cooked onto surface. Use
razor blade scraper to remove soil. See "Cooktop Cleaning and
Maintenance" in the Care & Cleaning section.
Areas of discoloration with metallic sheen (Ceramic Cooktop
models) = Mineral deposits from water and food. Remove using
a ceramic-glass cooktop cleaning creme. Use cookware with
clean, dry bottoms.
