About

Surface Controls

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 t ).
Heat is transferred up through the surface of the cooktop to the cookware. Only fiatbottom 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.

About the Radiant

Surface

Figure 1

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:
- 2 smaller 6 inch radiant elements located at the right and left rear positions;
- 2 dual 9 or 12 inch radiant element located at the right and left front
positions;
- a Warm & Ready zone radiant element located at the center rear position;
NOTE: Please read detailed instructions for ceramic glass cooktop cleaning in
the General Care & Cleaning section and Before You 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 11 for
using correct cookware instructionswith the cooktop).

Surface

Cooking

Settings

Use the table to determine the correct setting for the kind of food you are preparing.
The Simmer settings are used to simmer and keep larger quantities of foods warm
such as stews and soups. The lower Simmer settings are ideal for delicate foods and
melting chocolate or butter.
Note: The size and type of cookware used will influence the setting needed for best
cooking results.

Figure 2

NOTE: (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 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. A hot surface indicator light
will come on and will continue to
glow until the glass cooktop has
cooled down to a moderate level.
The glass surface may still be
hot and burns may occur if the
glass surface is touched before
the indicator light has turned off.
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.

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 aluminum foil or 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 or burners.
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 Warmer Zone 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.

Cooking

Cookware

Cookware should have flat bottoms that make
good contact with the entire surface heating
element. Check for flatness by rotating a ruler
across the bottom of the cookware (See Figure 1).
Be sure to follow the recommendations for using
cookware as shown in Figure 2.
Note: The size
and type of
cookware used
will influence the
setting needed for
best cooking
results.

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 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 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.

Oven Vent Location

Removing

The oven vent is located at right side of the front panel
and visible when the oven door is open. When the oven is
on, hot air is released through the vents. This venting is
necessary for proper air circulation in the oven and good
baking results.

and Replacing Oven Racks

To remove, pull the rack forward until it stops. Lift up
front of rack and slide out. To replace, fit the rack onto
the guides on the oven walls. Tilt the front of the rack
upward and slide the rack back into place.

For best air circulation and baking results allow 2-4" (5-10 cm) around
the cookware for proper air circulation and be sure pans and cookware
do not touch each other, the oven door, sides or back of the oven
cavity. The hot air must circulate around the pans and cookware in
the oven for even heat to reach around the food.

Preparing

Bread Dough for the Warmer
Drawer
The Warmer Drawer has a"Proof Bread" feature that can be used to
help prepare bread dough. The recommended length of time to keep
bread dough in the Warmer Drawer 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 Warmer Drawer
Rack in the downward position (see Figure 6). Place the bowl on the
rack in the Warmer Drawer and follow the Warmer Drawer and Proof
bread Control setting instructions at the top of this page.
Note: For best results, do not operate the main oven while using the
Proof Bread feature.

Self=Cleaning
During the SelfCleaning 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 SelfCleaning cycle of any range. Move
birds to another well-ventilated room.
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).
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:
= 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 and insert, all utensils and any aluminum foil.
These items cannot withstand high cleaning temperatures.
•
Porcelain oven racks do not have to be removed. 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.
NOTE: Prior to setting the Self-Clean cycle, any spills remaining on the oven
bottom should be removed.

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
