IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING
YOUR COOKTOP
= Know which knob controls each surface heating
unit.
= 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 accu-
mulations 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 cooktop use.
Do not use decorative surface element covers. If an
element 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.
FOR COOKTOPS WITH COIL ELEMENTS ONLY
Do Not Immerse or Soak Removable Surface Heating
Elements. Surface heating elements should never be
immerse inwater. Heating elements clean themselves during
normal operation.
Make Sure Drip Pans or Drip Bowls Are in Place. Absence
of these pans or bowls during cooking may subject wiring or
components underneath to damage.
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 drawer.
Keep oven vent ducts unobstructed. The oven vent is
located at the right side of the front panel and visible
when the oven door is open. 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/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 reposi-
tion. Do not let potholders contact the hot heating ele-
ments in the oven/warmer drawer (if equipped). Remove
all utensils from the rack before moving.
important Safety instructions
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.

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 FOR CLEAN-
ING YOUR RANGE
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.
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 essen-
tial fora 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.

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 t ).
Heat is transferred up through the surface of the cooktop to the cookware. Only fiat-
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 spread to areas beyond the surface elements. The areas surrounding the elements
may become hot enough to cause burns.
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:
- 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).
Figure 1
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.
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.
Recommended Settings for Single and Dual Surface Elements
Setting Type of Cooking
HiGH (Hi) Start most foods, bring water to a boil, pan broiling
MEDIUM HiGH (5-8) Continue a rapid boil, fry, deep fat fry
MEDIUM (5) Maintain a slow boil, thicken sauces and gravies, steam

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.

Surface Cooking
Selecting Surface 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).

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
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.

Removing 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.

Note: Always use caution when removing food.
Air Circulation in the Oven
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.

Setting Convection Bake
The CONVECTION BAKE _ pad controls the Convection Bake feature.
v
Use the Convection Bake feature when cooking speed is desired. The oven can
be programmed for Convection baking at any temperature between 300 ° F (149 °
C) to 550 ° F (288 ° C).
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. 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, more evenly and at
lower temperatures than conventional bake.
General Convection Bake instructions
1. Time reduction 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 dark finish will cook faster.
2. Preheating is not necessary when cooking casseroles with Convection Bake.
3. When using Convection Bake with a single rack, place oven rack inposition 2
or 3. If cooking on multiple racks, place the oven racks in positions 2 and 4 or
in positions 2, 3 and 4.
4. Cakes have better results when baked using the Food Categories CAKES pad.

Setting the Slow Cook Feature
The SLOW COOK _ pad is used to activate this feature. The Slow Cook feature may be used to cook foods more
V
slowly, at lower oven temperatures and provides cooking results much the same way as a Slow Cooker or Crock-Pot.
The Slow Cook feature is ideal for roasting beef, pork & poultry. Slow Cooking meats may result in the exterior of meats
becoming dark but not burnt. This is normal.
There are 2 settings available, high (HI) or low (LO). The high setting is best for cooking foods from a 4 to 5 hour time
period. The low setting is best for cooking foods from a 8 to 9 hour time period. The maximum cook time for the Slow
Cook feature is 12 hours unless the oven control has been changed to the Continuous Bake mode. This feature may be
used with the additional settings of a Timed Bake or a Delayed Start (Delayed Timed Bake).
Some tips you should review for best possible results using Slow Cook feature:
Completely thaw all frozen foods before cooking with the Slow Cook.
When using a single rack, place in position 2 or 3.
Position multiple racks to accommodate size of cooking utensils when cooking multiple food items.
Do not open the oven door often or leave the door open when checking foods. If the oven heat escapes often, the
Slow Cook time may need to be extended.

Setting the Food Categories Feature:
The MEATS _, CAKES _ and BREADS _ pads in the Food Categories feature are used when
v
cooking certain food items. These pads have been designed to give optimum cook performance for the foods selected in
each category.
The MEATS pad combines a cook cycle with the convection fan and element to roast meats and poultry. Preheating is not
necessary for meats and poultry. Heated air circulates around the food from all sides, sealing in juices and flavors. Foods
are crispy brown on the outside while staying moist on the inside.
The CAKES pad provides a preheat with a gentle cycling of heat giving cakes more volume and allowing delicate foods to
cook more evenly.
The BREADS pad adds a preheat feature to the bake cycle to thoroughly heat the oven from top to bottom to give more
evenly browned foods. Refer to (Figure 4) for foods to cook in each category.

Roasting Instructions for Meat Pad:
When using the Meat pad for roasting, use the broiler pan and insert along with the
roasting rack. The broiler pan will catch grease spills and the insert will help prevent
grease spatters. The roasting rack will allow the heat to circulate around the meat.
To prevent food from contacting the broil element and to prevent grease
spattering, DO NOT use the roasting rack when broiling.
1. Place oven rack on bottom or next to the bottom rack position. See Arranging
Oven Racks in this Use & Care Guide.
2. Place the insert in the broiler pan. The roasting rack fits on the insert allowing the
heated air to circulate under the food for even cooking and helps to increase
browning on the underside. Make sure the roasting rack is securely seated on the
insert in the broiler pan. DO NOT use the broiler pan without the insert. DO NOT
cover the insert with aluminum foil.
3. Position food (fat side up) on the roasting rack (See Figure 5).
4. Place the broiler pan on the oven rack.

Setting Broil
The _ pad controls the Broil feature. 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. For optimum browning results when broiling, preheat the broil element for 3 to 4 minutes. This appliance includes a
Searing Grill for searing meats (Figure 6). 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. Always place insert on
the broiler pan with ribs and slots down to allow grease to drip into pan(See Figure 5). 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.

Always use potholders or oven mitts when removing food from the Warmer Drawer as cookware and
plates will be hot and you can be burned.
Operating the Warmer Drawer
The purpose of the Warmer Drawer is to keep hot cooked foods at
serving temperature. Always start with hot food. It is not recommended
to heat cold food in the Warmer Drawer. All food placed inthe Warmer
Drawer should be covered with a lid or aluminum foil to maintain quality.
Do not use plastic wrap to cover food. Plastic may melt onto the
drawer and be very difficult to clean. Use only utensils and cookware
recommended for oven use inthe Warmer Drawer.
Warmer Drawer Food Temperature Settings
Use the recommended settings in the Warmer Drawer settings table. If a
particular food is not listed, start with the iViED setting. If more crispness
is desired, remove the lid or aluminum foil from the food. Most foods can
be kept at serving temperatures on the iViED setting. When a
combination of foods are to be kept warm (for instance, meat with 2
vegetables and rolls), use the Hi setting. To avoid heat loss, do not open
the Warmer Drawer repeatedly while inuse.

Cleaning 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 inoperation, 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.
_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.

Use hot, soapy water and a cloth. Dry with a clean cloth.
Before cleaning the control panel, 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 and a dishcloth. Be sure to squeeze excess
water from the cloth before wiping the panel; especially when wiping around the
controls. Excess water inor around the controls may cause damage to the appliance.
Be sure to rinse the cleaners as bluish stains may occur during heating and cannot de
removed. To replace knobs after cleaning, line up the flat sides of both the knob and
the shaft; then push the knob into place.
Using a soft cloth, clean with mild dish detergent and water or a 50/50 solution of
vinegar and water. Follow by rinsing the area with clean water; dry and polish with a soft
cloth. Glass cleaners may be used if sprayed on a soft cloth first. DO NOT spray
liquids directly on the control pad and display area. Do not use large amounts of water
on the control panel -excess water on the control area may cause damage to the
appliance. Do not use other liquid cleaners, abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, or paper
towels -they will damage the finish. 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.
Clean with hot, soapy water and dishcloth. Rinse with clean water and 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. AJways be sure to rinse the cleaners off from the surface as
bluish stains may occur during heating that cannot be removed.
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.
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.
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, on Self-Cleaning models, which is essential for a good seal. Care should be
taken not to rub, damage or remove this gasket.

Ceramic Glass Cooktop Cleaning & Maintenance
Consistent and pr0per cleaning is essential to maintaining y0ur ceramic glass c00kt0p
Prior to using your cooktop for the first time, apply the recommended CookTopO 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 cooktop, sure are cooktop
J
_ DO NOT use a cooktop cleaner on a hot cooktop. The fumes can be hazardous to your health, and canchemically damage the ceramic glass surface. 1
For light to moderate soil:
Apply a few drops of CookTopO 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 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). Allow the cooktop to cool, and use the same method for heavy
or burned on soils.
38
General Care & Cleaning (cont'd)
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 Foil and Aluminum Cooking Utensils
Aluminum foil
Use of aluminum foil will damage the cooktop. Do not use under any circumstances.
Aluminum utensils
Since the melting point of aluminum is much lower than that of other metals, care must be taken when aluminum pots
or pans are used. Pans that boil dry may permanently damage cooktop by breaking, fusing to, or marking it.
Care and Cleaning of Stainless Steel (StainlessSteel models only)
Some models are equipped with stainless steel exterior parts. Special care and cleaning are required for maintaining
the appearance of stainless parts. Please refer to the table provided at the beginning of the General Care & Cleaning
