unit. Place a pan of food on the unit before turning it on,
and then 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. The use of undersized utensils will expose
a portion of the surface heating unit to direct contact
and may result in ignition of clothing. Proper relationship
of utensil to the surface unit will also improve efficiency.
,, Utensil handles should be turned inward and not
extend over adjacent surface units. To reduce the risk
of burns, ignition of flammable materials, and spillage
due to unintentional contact with the utensil.
,, Never leave surface burners unattended at high
heat settings--Boilovers
cause smoking and greasy
accumulations that may ignite, or a pan that has boiled
dry may melt.
,, Glazed cooking utensils--Only
certain types of

Before Setting Surface Controls
About the Ceramic

Glass Cooktop

The ceramic cooktop has radiant surface elements located below the
surface of the glass. The design of the ceramic cooktop outlines the
area of the surface element underneath. Make sure the diameter of
the pan matches the diameter of the element outline on the cooktop
(See Figure 1).
Heat is transferred up through the surface of the cooktop to the
cookware. Only flat-bottom 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
as beyond the surface elements.
The areas surrounding the elements may become hot
enough to cause burns.
Figure 1

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.

Locations

of the Radiant

Surface

Elements

and Controls

Your range is equipped with radiant surface burners with
different wattage ratings. The ability to heat food quicker and in
larger volumes increases as the element wattage increases.
The radiant surface elements are located on the cooktop as
follows:
- One small 6 inch radiant element located at the right
rear position.
- One dual 9 or 12 inch radiant element located at the
right front position.
- Two 7 inch radiant elements located at both the left
front and rear positions.
- One mid-position radiant element located between left
front and rear elements. Connects with front element
to form Bridge element.
- a Warmer Zone located at the center rear position.
Note: Please read detailed instructions for ceramic glass
cooktop cleaning in the General Care & Cleaning section and
BeforeYou Call checklist section of this Use and 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 glass cooktop. Cycling at the HI setting
is normal and can also occur if the cookware is too small for
the radiant element or if the cookware bottom is not flat (Refer
to page 10 for correct cookware instructions).

Figure 2

Note: (White glass cooktops only) Due to the high intensity of heat generated by the surface elements, the glass surface
will turn to a pale green when the element is first turned off. This phenomenon is normal and the glass will come back to
its original white color after it has completely cooled down.
Radiant surface elements may appear to have cooled after they have been turned off. The glass surface
may still be hot and burns may occur if the glass surface is touched before it has cooled sufficiently.
Do not place plastic items such as salt and pepper shakers, spoon holders or plastic wrappings on
top of the range when it is in use. These items could melt or ignite. Potholders, towels or wooden spoons could catch
fire if placed too close to the surface elements.

the Warmer

(Warm & Ready

TM)

Zone

The Warm & Ready TM zone radiant element is located at the center rear position (Figure
6). The purpose of the Warmer Zone is to keep hot cooked foods at serving temperature.
Use the Warmer Zone to keep cooked foods hot such as: vegetables, gravies, casseroles,
soups, stews, breads, pastries and oven-safe dinner plates. Always start with hot food. It
is not recommended to heat cold food on the Warmer Zone.
The Warmer Zone will not glow red when it is hot, but becomes hot enough
to cause burns. Always use potholders or oven mitts when removing food from the warmer
zone as cookware and plates will be hot.
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 or aluminum foil to cover food. Plastic or
aluminum may melt onto the surface.
Use only plates, utensils and cookware recommended by the item manufacturer for oven
and cooktop use on the Warmer Zone.

Element

The cooktop is equipped with a "BRIDGE" surface element located at the left
front and middle (See Figures 1) positions. The Bridge can be used when
cooking with rectangular (like a griddle) or oval shaped cookware. The element
will maintain an even temperature setting across both portions of the Bridge. If
needed for normal cookware, the Bridge element can work like a single element
without the Bridge (See Figure 4). "Single" and "Dual" on the control knob are
used to indicate which portion of the bridge element will heat. "Single" indicates
that only the front portion will heat (Figure 2). "Dual" indicates that both inner
and outer coils will heat (Figure 3). You may switch between settings at any time
during cooking.

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 glass 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
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.

Broiling

Times

Broiling times vary, so watch the food closely. Time not only depends on the
distance from element, but on the thickness and aging of meat, fat content and
doneness preferred. The first side usually requires a few minutes longer than
second. Frozen meats also require additional time.

Clean=Up Tips (not supplied with appliance):
To make cleaning easier, line the bottom of the broiler pan with aluminum foil. DO
NOT cover the broiler grid with foil.
To prevent grease from baking on, remove the broiler pan from the oven as soon
as cooking is completed. Use hot pads because the broiler pan is extremely hot.
Pour off grease. Soak the pan in HOT, soapy water.
Clean the broiler pan as soon as possible after each use. If necessary, use soapfilled steel wool pads. Heavy scouring may scratch the grid.

Note: The broiler pan and insert are
available by mail order.
Note: Broiler pan and its insert allow
dripping grease to drain and be
kept away from the high heat of the

Wait 5 seconds to accept the temperature change and the display will return to the time of day. Press ('_") pad to
reject the change if necessary,

Note: Oven temperature adjustment made will not change the Broil and the Self-Cleaning feature temperatures.

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 use oven cleaners or oven protective coatings in or around
any part of the oven interior.
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.
!ilD
DO NOT use any cleaning materials on the oven door gasket. Doing !iI...............
so could cause damage.
,(:j:ii_
,, Remove all utensils and any aluminum foil.These items cannot ...........
ii.......
withstand high cleaning temperatures.
,, Oven racks do not have to be removed, but remaining in the oven
during the Self-Clean will turn them slightly blue and dull their finish.
If left in, 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 racks glide easier into
the rack position).
,, 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. DO NOT hand clean the oven door gasket.
NOTE: Prior to setting the Self-Clean cycle, any spills remaining on the
oven bottom should be removed.
Some models have an exposed Bake element in the lower oven cavity.
On these models the bake element is designed to be tilted up using
your hand from the front of the bake element. This will allow easier
access to the oven bottom for cleaning. Be careful not to raise the
element more than 4 or 5 inches from the resting position.
The oven bake and broil elements may appear to have
cooled after they have been turned OFR The elements may still be
hot and burns may occur if these elements are touched before they
have cooled sufficiently.

Self-Cleaning
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 self-cleaning cycle.

Self-Clean

Cycle

time length

For satisfactory results, use a 2 hour Self-Clean cycle for light soils and a 3 hour
cycle for average or a 4 hour cycle for heavy soils. NOTE: The kitchen area
should be well ventilated using an open window, ventilation fan or exhaust hood
during the Self-Clean cycle. This will help eliminate the normal odors associated
with the Self-Clean cycle.

General Care & Cleaning
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 SPILLOVERS
AND HEAVY SOILING AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. REGULAR CLEANINGS NOWWILL REDUCE THE EXTENT AND DIFFICULTY OF MAJOR CLEANING LATER.

Surfaces

How to Clean

Aluminum
& Vinyl

(Trim Pieces)

Painted and Plastic Con=
trol Panel, Body Parts, and
Decorative Trim

Use hot, soapy water and a cloth. Dry with a clean cloth. Do not scour or use all-purpose cleaners, ammonia, powdered cleaners or commercial oven cleaner. They can
scratch and discolor aluminum.
For general cleaning, use hot, soapy water and a cloth. For more difficult soils and
built-up grease, apply a liquid detergent directly onto the soil. Leave on soil for 30 to
60 minutes. Rinse with a damp cloth and dry. DO NOT use abrasive cleaners on any
of these materials; they can scratch.
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 flat sides of both the knob and
the shaft; then push the knob into place.

Stainless Steel, Chrome
Control Panel, Decorative
Trim

Before cleaning the controlpanel, turn all controls to OFF and remove the control
knobs. To remove, pull each knob straight off the shaft. Clean using hot, soapy water
and a dishcloth. Rinse with a clean water using a dishcloth. Be sure to squeeze
excess water from the cloth before wiping the panel; especially when wiping around
the controls. Excess water in or around the controls may cause damage to the
appliance. To replace knobs after cleaning, line up the flat sides of both the knob and
the shaft; then push the knob into place.
Clean stainless steel with hot, soapy water and a dishcloth. Rinse with clean water
and a cloth. Do not use cleaners with high concentrations
of chlorides or
chlorines. Do not use harsh scrubbing cleaners. Only use kitchen cleaners that are
especially made for 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 (some
models), 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.
This oven comes with lubricated porcelain oven racks, which can remain in the oven
during the self-clean cycle. Do not clean this vegetable oil lubrication off the racks. It
is important that the sides of the oven racks always have a light coating of vegetable
oil. To maintain optimal rack performance, re-apply a thin layer of vegetable oil to the
sides of the rack after every self-clean cycle or when the rack becomes difficult to
slide.

Oven Racks

For some models with chrome oven racks, clean by using a mild, abrasive cleaner
following manufacturer's instructions. Rinse with clean water and dry.
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.

Cooktop Cleaning

& Maintenance

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
(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.

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 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 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, then apply a few drops of
cleaning cream and buff surface clean.
IIVIPORTANT 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, use a razor blade scraper or a metal spatula with a mitt and scrape the soil from the hot surface (as
illustrated).

General Care & Cleaning
Ceramic Glass Cooktop Cleaning

& Maintenance
