IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
READ ALL INSTRUCTION BEFORE USING
IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE AND
WARNING
The California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement
Act of 1986 (Proposition 65) requires the Governor of
California to publish a list of substances known to the State
of California to cause cancer or reproductive harm and
requires businesses to warn customer of potential exposures
to such substances.
Users of this appliance are hereby warned that when it
is engaged in the self-clean cycle, there may be low level
exposure to some of the listed substances, including carbon
monoxide. Exposure can be minimized by properly venting
the oven to the outdoors during the self-clean cycle by
opening a window and/or door in the room where the
appliance is located.
WARNING All ranges can tip and injury
could result. To reduce the risk of tipping of the
appliance from abnormal usage by excessive
loading of the oven door, the appliance must
be secured to wall and floor by installing the
Anti-Tip device supplied. If it is not, there is
a possible risk of the range tipping over and
causing injury if you or a child stand, sit or
lean on an open door. Please refer to the Anti-Tip device
information in the installation manual.
To check if the device is properly installed and engaged, look
underneath the range with a flashlight to make sure one of
the rear leveling legs is properly engaged in the bracket slot.
The Anti-Tip device secures the rear leveling leg to the floor
when properly engaged. You should check this anytime the
range has been moved.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions
should be followed, including the following:
1 Use this appliance only for its intended purpose as
described in this manual.
2 Be sure your appliance is properly installed and
grounded by a qualified technician in accordance with
the provided installation instructions.
3 Never use appliance for warming or heating the room.
4 Children should not be left alone or unattended in area
where appliance is in use. They should never be allowed
to sit or stand on any part of the appliance.
5 Never wear loose-fitting or hanging garments while
using the appliance. Be careful when reaching for items
stored over the range. Flammable material could be
ignited if brought in contact with hot surface units or
heating elements and may cause severe burns.
6 Do not repair or replace any part of appliance unless
specifically recommended in this manual. All other
servicing should be referred to a qualified technician.
7 Do not store flammable materials in an oven, Microwave
Drawer or near surface units. Do not store or use
combustible materials, gasoline or other flammable
vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this appliance.
8 Do not use water on grease fires. Smother a flame or
use a dry chemical or form-type extinguisher. Flaming
grease outside a pan can be put out by covering it with
baking soda or if available, by a multi-purpose dry
chemical or form-type fire extinguisher.
9 Use only dry potholders - a moist or damp potholder on
hot surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do not let
potholders touch hot surface unit or heating elements.
Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth.
10 CAUTION Do not store items of interest to children in
cabinets above a range or on the backsplash of a range.
Children climbing on the range to reach items could be
seriously injured.
11 Do not touch the surface units, heating elements or the
interior surface of the oven. These surfaces may be hot
even though they are dark in color. These surfaces may
become hot enough to cause burns. During and after
use, do not touch or let clothing or other flammable
materials contact surface units, heating elements or
interior surfaces of oven until they have had sufficient
time to cool. Other potentially hot surfaces include:
cooktop, areas facing the cooktop, oven vent opening,
surfaces near the vent opening, oven door and window
and area around the door.
12 Have the installer show you the location of the circuit
breaker or fuse. Mark it for easy reference.
13 Before performing any service, disconnect the range
power supply at the household distribution panel by
removing the fuse or switching off the circuit breaker.
14 Do not allow anyone to climb, stand or hang on the door,
Microwave Drawer or cooktop. They could damage
the range and even tip it over, causing severe personal
injury.
15 Teach children not to play with the controls or any other
part of the range.
16 Always keep wooden and plastic utensils and canned
food a safe distance from your range.
17 Always keep combustible wall coverings, curtains or
drapes a safe distance from your range.

RADIANT SURFACE UNITS
1 Use proper pan size — this appliance has different size
surface units. Select utensils having flat bottoms large
enough to cover the surface unit heating element. The use
of undersized utensils will expose a portion of surface
unit heating element to direct contact and may result in
ignition of clothing. Proper relationship of utensils to
heating element will also improve efficiency.
2 Never leave surface units unattended at high heat
settings. Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers
that may catch on fire.
3 Only certain types of glass, glass/ceramic, ceramic,
earthware or other glazed utensils are suitable for
cooktop service without breaking due to the sudden
change in temperature.
4 To reduce the risk of burns, ignition of flammable
materials and spillage due to unintentional contact with
utensils, the handle of a utensil should be positioned so
that it is turned inward and does not extend over adjacent
surface units.
5 Do not cook on broken cooktop. If cooktop should
break, cleaning solutions and spillovers may penetrate
the broken cooktop and create a risk of electric shock.
Contact a qualified technician immediately.
6 Clean cooktop with caution. If a wet sponge or cloth is
used to wipe spills on a hot surface unit, be careful to
avoid steam burn. Some cleaners can produce noxious
fumes if applied to a hot surface. Please see cleaning
the glass cooktop section.
7 Clean ventilating hoods frequently. Grease should not
be allowed to accumulate on hood or filter.
8 When flaming foods under the hood, turn the fan on.
9 Deep fat fryers - use extreme caution when moving the
grease kettle or disposing of hot grease.
10 Always turn the surface units off before removing
cookware.
11 Keep an eye on foods being fried at high or medium
high heat settings.
12 Food for frying should be as dry as possible. Frost on
frozen foods or moisture on fresh foods can cause hot
fat to bubble up and over the sides of the pan.
13 Use little fat for effective shallow or deep fat frying.
Filling the pan too full of fat can cause spillovers when
food is added.
If a combination of oils or fats will be used in frying,
stir together before heating or as fats melt slowly.
14 Always heat fat slowly and watch as it heats.
15 Use a deep fat thermometer whenever possible to prevent
heating fat beyond the smoking point.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
16 Avoid scratching the glass cooktop. The cooktop can be
scratched with items such as sharp instruments, rings
or other jewelry and rivets on clothing.
17 Large scratches or impacts to glass doors or cooktop
can lead to broken or shattered glass.
18 Never use the glass cooktop surface as cutting board.
19 Do not place or store items that can melt or catch fire
on the glass cooktop, even when it is not being used.
20 Be careful when placing spoons or other stirring utensils
on glass cooktop surface when it is in use. They may
become hot and could cause burns.

c Do not use straight-sided containers with narrow
necks. Use a wide-mouthed container.
d After heating, allow the container to stand in the
microwave oven at least for 20 seconds before removing
the container.
e Use extreme care when inserting a spoon or other
utensil into the container.
OVEN
1 Use care when opening door—let hot air or steam escape
before removing or replacing food.
2 Do not heat unopened food containers. Build-up of
pressure may cause container to burst and result in
injury.
3 Keep oven vent unobstructed.
4 Always place oven racks in desired locations while oven
is cool. If rack must be moved while oven is hot, do not
let potholder contact hot heating element.
5 Do not use aluminum foil to line oven bottom, as use
may result in a risk of electric shock or fire.
6 Keep the oven free from grease buildup.
7 When using cooking or roasting bags in the oven, follow
the manufacturerʼs directions.
8 Pulling out the rack to the stop-lock is a convenience in
lifting heavy foods. It is also a precaution against burns
from touching hot surfaces of the door or oven walls.
9 Do not use the oven to dry newspapers. If overheated,
they can catch fire.
10 Do not use the oven for a storage area. Items stored in
oven can ignite.
11 Do not leave paper products, cooking utensils or food
in the oven when not in use.
SELF-CLEANING OVEN
1 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.
2 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. Residue from
oven cleaners will damage the inside of the oven when
the self-clean cycle is used.
3 Clean only parts listed in this manual.
4 Before self-cleaning the oven, remove broiler pan, racks,
and other utensils.
5 If the self-cleaning mode malfunctions, turn the oven

INFORMATION YOU NEED TO KNOW
ABOUT THE COOKTOP
• Glass ceramic cooktop - Make sure the surface and
the pan bottom are clean before turning on. Do not use the
cooktop if the glass is broken or if metal melts on it.
• Radiant surface units - The radiant surace heating units
are beneath the smooth glass ceramic cooktop. The design on
the cooktop outlines the area of the surface unit underneath.
When the cooktop is on, the (cooktop-on indicator), next
to the surface cooking control knob, comes on even if the
cooktop unit doesnʼt look red. The areas around the units
may become hot enough to cause burns.
• Hot surface indicator - An indicator light, on the cooktop,
comes on when the surface unit is turned on and the cooktop
temperature increases. The indicator will remain on until the
surface has cooled below 150˚F even after the unit is turned
off.
• Temperature Limiter - The radiant surface units have a
temperature limiter that allows the unit to cycle on and off,
even at the High setting. It protects the glass ceramic cooktop
from damage. Cycling at the High setting can occur when
improper cookware is used.
Note: Never leave any items on the cooktop. Hot units may
ignite fl ammable items, melt or soften plastics or increase
pressure in closed containers causing them to burst.
Donʼt store heavy items above the cooktop as they can cause
damage if they drop on to the cooktop.
Never cook directly on the cooktop. Always use cookware.
ABOUT COOKING UTENSILS
For best results and energy conservation, choose cooking
utensils as below.
• Bottom of pan - Pans should have fl at bottoms that make
good contact with the entire surface unit. Check for fl atness
by using a straight edge. Pans with curved or warped bottoms
are not recommended.
• Size of pan - Pan size should match the amount of food
and the size of the surface unit. Do not use canners or frypans
that exceed the width of the radiant surface units.
• Material of pan - Always use a utensil for its intended
purpose. Follow manufacturerʼs instructions. Some utensils
were not made to be used on the cooktop.
• Position of pan - Always place the pan in the center of
the surface unit you are using. Do not use two elements to
heat one large pan.
• Wok Cooking - Only a fl at-bottomed wok is recommended.
Do not use round-bottom wok or a wok with a support ring.
Note: Do not slide cookware across the cooktop surface
because it can scratch the glass or may leave marks which
need to be removed promptly.
Never allow a pan to boil dry. This could damage the pan
and the countertop.
Do not use aluminum foil on the cooktop surface.
Do not use cooktop as a cutting board.

MICROWAVE DRAWER COOKING
• Check for doneness. Look for signs indicating that
cooking temperatures have been reached.
Doneness signs include:
- Food steams throughout, not just at edge.
- Center bottom of dish is very hot to the touch.
- Poultry thigh joints move easily.
- Meat and poultry show no pinkness.
- Fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
ABOUT UTENSILS AND COVERINGS
It is not necessary to buy all new cookware. Many pieces
already in your kitchen can be used successfully in your new
Microwave Drawer. Make sure the utensil does not touch the
interior walls during cooking.
Use these utensils for safe microwave cooking and
reheating:
• glass ceramic (Pyroceram®), such as Corningware®.
• heat-resistant glass (Pyrex®)
• microwave-safe plastics
• microwave-safe paper plates
• microwave-safe pottery, stoneware and porcelain
• browning dish (Do not exceed recommended preheating time.
Follow manufacturer's directions.)
These items can be used for short time reheating of foods
that have little fat or sugar in them:
• wood, straw, wicker
DO NOT USE
• metal pans and bakeware
• dishes with metallic trim
• non-heat-resistant glass
• non-microwave-safe plastics (margarine tubs)
• recycled paper products
• brown paper bags
• food storage bags
• metal twist-ties
Should you wish to check if a dish is safe for microwaving,
place the empty dish in the oven and microwave on HIGH
for 30 seconds. A dish which becomes very hot should not
be used.
The following coverings are ideal:
• Paper towels are good for covering foods for reheating and
absorbing fat while cooking bacon.
• Wax paper can be used for cooking and reheating.
• Plastic wrap that is specially marked for microwave use
can be used for cooking and reheating. DO NOT allow plastic
wrap to touch food. Vent so steam can escape.
• Lids that are microwave-safe are a good choice because
heat is kept near the food to hasten cooking.
• Oven cooking bags are good for large meats or foods that
INFORMATION YOU NEED TO KNOW
ALWAYS have food in the Microwave Drawer when it is on
to absorb the microwave energy.
When using the Microwave Drawer at power levels below
100%, you may hear the magnetron cycling on and off. It is
normal for the exterior of the Microwave Drawer to be warm
to the touch when cooking or reheating.
Condensation is a normal part of microwave cooking.
Room humidity and the moisture in food will influence the
amount of moisture that condenses in the Microwave Drawer.
Generally, covered foods will not cause as much condensation
as uncovered ones. Vents between Microwave Drawer and
oven must not be blocked.
The Microwave Drawer is for food preparation only. It should
not be used to dry clothes or newspapers.
Your Microwave Drawer is rated 1000 watts by using the
IEC Test Procedure. In using recipes or package directions,
check food a minute or two before the minimum time and
add time accordingly.
When opening or closing the Microwave Drawer quickly, food
in the Microwave Drawer may be spilled. To clean, please
refer to the Cleaning and Care section on page 26.
RADIO OR TV INTERFERENCE
Should there be any interference caused by the Microwave
Drawer to your radio or TV, relocate the radio or TV as far
away from the range as feasible or check position and signal
of receiving antenna.
ABOUT MICROWAVE COOKING
• Arrange food carefully. Place thickest areas towards
outside of dish.
• Watch cooking time. Cook for the shortest amount of time
indicated and add more as needed. Food severely overcooked
can smoke or ignite.
• Cover foods while cooking. Check recipe or cookbook
for suggestions: paper towels, wax paper, microwave plastic
wrap or a lid. Covers prevent spattering and help foods to
cook evenly.
• Shield with small flat pieces of aluminum foil any thin
areas of meat or poultry to prevent overcooking before dense,
thick areas are cooked thoroughly.
• Stir foods from outside to center of dish once or twice
during cooking, if possible.
• Turn foods over once during microwaving to speed cooking
of such foods as chicken and hamburgers. Large items like
roasts must be turned over at least once.
• Rearrange foods such as meatballs halfway through
cooking both from top to bottom and from right to left.
• Add standing time. Remove food from Microwave Drawer
and stir, if possible. Cover for standing time which allows
the food to finish cooking without overcooking.
15
need tenderizing. DO NOT use metal twist ties. Remember
to slit bag so steam can escape.
How to use aluminum foil in your Microwave Drawer:
• Small flat pieces of aluminum foil placed smoothly on the
food can be used to shield areas that are either defrosting or
cooking too quickly.
• Foil should not come closer than one inch to any surface
of the Microwave Drawer.
Should you have questions about utensils or coverings, check
a good microwave cookbook or follow recipe suggestions.
ACCESSORIES There are many microwave accessories
available for purchase. Evaluate carefully before you purchase
so that they meet your needs. A microwave-safe thermometer
will assist you in determining correct doneness and assure
you that foods have been cooked to safe temperatures. Sharp
is not responsible for any damage to the Microwave Drawer
when accessories are used.
ABOUT CHILDREN AND THE MICROWAVE
Children below the age of 7 should use the Microwave Drawer
with a supervising person very near to them. Between the
ages of 7 and 12, the supervising person should be in the
same room.
The child must be able to reach the Microwave Drawer
comfortably.
At no time should anyone be allowed to lean or swing on the
Microwave Drawer.
Children should be taught all safety precautions: use
potholders, remove coverings carefully, pay special attention
to packages that crisp food because they may be extra hot.
Donʼt assume that because a child has mastered one cooking
skill he/she can cook everything.
Children need to learn that the Microwave Drawer is not a
toy. See page 25 for Control Lock feature.
ABOUT SAFETY
• Check foods to see that they are cooked to the United States
Department of Agricultureʼs recommended temperatures.
160˚F - For fresh pork, ground meat, boneless white poultry,
fish, seafood, egg dishes and frozen prepared food.
165˚F - For leftover, ready-to-reheat refrigerated, and deli and
carry-out “fresh” food.
170˚F - White meat of poultry.
180˚F - Dark meat of poultry.
To test for doneness, insert a meat thermometer in a thick
or dense area away from fat or bone. NEVER leave the
thermometer in the food during cooking, unless it is approved
for microwave use.
• ALWAYS use potholders to prevent burns when handling
utensils that are in contact with hot food. Enough heat from
the food can transfer through utensils to cause skin burns.
• Avoid steam burns by directing steam away from the face
and hands. Slowly lift the farthest edge of a dishʼs covering and
carefully open popcorn and oven cooking bags away from the
face.
• Stay near the Microwave Drawer while itʼs in use and check
cooking progress frequently so that there is no chance of
overcooking food.
• NEVER use the Microwave Drawer for storing cookbooks
or other items.
• Select, store and handle food carefully to preserve its high
quality and minimize the spread of foodborne bacteria.
• Keep waveguide cover clean. Food residue can cause arcing
and/or fires. See page 27.

SENSOR SETTINGS
Sharp's Sensor is a semi-conductor device that detects the
vapor (moisture and humidity) emitted from the food as it
heats. The sensor adjusts the cooking times and power level
for various foods and quantities.
USING SENSOR SETTINGS:
1 After the range is plugged in, wait 2 minutes before
using any sensor setting.
2 Be sure the exterior of the cooking container and the
interior of the Microwave Drawer are dry. Wipe off any
moisture with a dry cloth or paper towel.
3 The sensor works with foods at normal storage
temperature. For example, popcorn would be at room
temperature.
4 Any sensor selection can be programmed with More or
Less Time Adjustment. See page 20.
5 More or less food than the quantity listed in the charts
should be cooked following the guidelines in any
microwave cookbook.
6 During the first part of sensor use, the food name will
appear on the display. Do not open the Microwave
Drawer or touch Stop/Clear during this part of the
cycle. The measurement of vapor will be interrupted.
If this occurs, an error message will appear. To
continue cooking, touch the Stop/Clear pad and cook
manually.
When the sensor detects the vapor emitted from the
food, the remainder of cooking/reheating time will
appear. The Microwave Drawer may be opened when
the remaining time appears on the display. At this time,
you may stir or season food, as desired.
7 If the sensor does not detect vapor properly when
popping popcorn, the oven will turn off, and the time
of day will be displayed. If the sensor does not detect
vapor properly when cooking other foods, ERROR will
be displayed, and the microwave will turn off.
8 Check food temperature after cooking. If additional
time is needed, continue to cook manually.
9 Each food has a cooking hint. Touch the Custom Help
pad when the HELP indicator is lighted in the display.

MANUAL DEFROST
If the food that you wish to defrost is not listed on the
DEFROST CHART or is above or below the limits in the
AMOUNT column on the DEFROST CHART on the previ-
ous page, you need to defrost manually.
You can defrost any frozen food, either raw or previously
cooked, by using Power Level at 30%. Follow the exact 3-step
procedure found under, TO SET POWER LEVEL on page
16. Estimate defrosting time and press Power Level pad eight
times for 30% power.
For either raw or previously cooked frozen food the rule of
thumb is approximately 4 minutes per pound. For example,
defrost 4 minutes for 1 pound of frozen spaghetti sauce.
Always stop the oven periodically to remove or separate
the portions that are defrosted. If food is not defrosted at
the end of the estimated defrosting time, program the oven
in 1 minute increments on Power Level 30% until totally
defrosted.
When using plastic containers from the freezer, defrost only
long enough to remove from the plastic in order to place in
a microwave-safe dish.

OVEN COOKING
INFORMATION YOU NEED TO KNOW
• Be sure all packing material is removed from oven before
turning on.
• Oven vent location - The oven vent is located at the
right side of the front panel between the Microwave Drawer
and oven. This area could become hot during oven use. It
is normal for steam to come out of the vent. The vent is
important for proper air circulation in the oven and good
baking results. Never block this vent.
• Do not use oven for storing food or cookware.
BEFORE USING OVEN
REMOVING AND REPLACING OVEN RACKS
The racks have stops, so that when placed correctly on the
supports, they will stop before coming completely out and
will not tilt.
To remove, pull the rack forward until it stops. Lift front of
rack up 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 EZ Extend rack, pull both the rack glide and rack base
out together.

Baking on 2 racks at the same time 2 and 4
Note: Follow package instructions and recipe times. The
cooking times and temperatures needed to bake a product
may vary slightly from your previously owned appliance.
AIR CIRCULATION IN THE OVEN
Baking results will be better if baking pans are centered in
the oven as much as possible. If baking four cake layers at
the same time, place two layers on rack #1 and two layers
on rack #3. Stagger pans on the rack so one is not directly
above the other. For best air circulation and baking results
allow 2-4 inches around the cookware 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.
ALUMINUM FOIL
Do not place aluminum foil on the oven bottom. It is not
recommended to use aluminum foil to line the broiler pan
and broiler grid. If you would like to use it to make cleaning
easier, you must mold the foil tightly to the grid and cut slits
in it just like the grid. Without the slits, the foil will prevent
fat and meat juices from draining into the broiler pan, and
then the juices could become hot enough to catch on fire.

OVEN COOKING
HOW TO START SELF-CLEAN
Remember to allow time for the oven to cool down and the
oven door to unlock (approx. 1 hour) if you are planning to
use the oven after a self-clean cycle. Remove the broiler pan
and broiler grid, all utensils and any foil. We recommend
removing the oven racks. If they go through the clean cycle,
they will darken, lose their luster and become hard to slide.
With soap and water, clean any soil from the oven frame
and the area outside the gasket on the door. These areas heat
during self-cleaning cycle to burn soil on. To avoid heavy
smoke or fire when subjected to high temperature, remove
heavy spillovers in the oven using hot soapy water and cloth
before cleaning cycle.
We recommend venting your kitchen with an open window
or using a ventilation fan during the self-cleaning cycle.
1 Touch Self Clean pad. NORM
2 Touch START pad.
Oven locks automatically. Cleaning time appears and begins
counting down. When self cleaning time is completed, a
signal will sound and END will appear in the display. It
will not be possible to open the door until the temperature
drops below the lock temperature and LOCK indicator goes
off.
Touch Self Clean pad once for NORMAL (4 hours) or twice
for LIGHT (2 1/2 hours).
After a self-clean cycle, you may notice some white ash in
the oven. Wipe it up with a damp cloth after the oven cools.
Gently lift the bottom element to wipe underneath it. It cannot
be removed.
If the racks become hard to slide, apply a small amount of
cooking oil to a paper towel and wipe the edges of the oven
racks.
Note: 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.
During the self-cleaning cycle, the outside of the oven can
become very hot to touch. Do not leave small children
unattended near the appliance.
If heavy spillovers are not wiped up before the self-cleaning
cycle, they may flame and cause more smoke and odor than
usual. This is normal and safe and should not cause alarm.
The glass ceramic cooktop and the Microwave Drawer can
be used while the oven is self-cleaning.
OVEN LIGHT
The oven light automatically comes on when the door is
opened. When the door is closed, press Oven Light pad on
the control panel to turn the light on or off.
The oven light will not operate during a self-clean cycle. The
oven light will come on automatically one minute before the
end of a time controlled oven cooking operation.

CLEANING AND CARE
Before cleaning any part of the range, be sure all controls are
turned OFF and all surfaces are cool.
NON-COOKTOP SURFACES
EXTERIOR
The outside surface is precoated metal and plastic. Clean the
outside with mild soap and water; rinse and dry with a soft
cloth. Do not use any type of household or abrasive cleaner.
STAINLESS STEEL SURFACE
(SELECT MODELS)
The exterior should be wiped often with a soft damp cloth and
polished with a soft dry cloth to maintain its beauty. There are
also a variety of products designed especially for cleaning and
shining the stainless exterior of the oven. We recommend that
the cleaner be applied to a soft cloth and then carefully used
on the stainless exterior rather than sprayed directly on to it.
Follow package directions carefully.
OUTSIDE OF THE DOOR
Wipe the window on both sides with a damp cloth to remove
any spills or spatters. Metal parts will be easier to maintain
if wiped frequently with a soft damp cloth. Avoid the use of
spray and other harsh cleaners as they may stain, streak or
dull the door surface.
CONTROL KNOBS
The control knobs may be removed for easier cleaning. Before
removing the knobs, make sure the knobs are in the OFF
position. Clean with a soft cloth dampened with mild soap
and water; rinse and dry with a soft cloth. When replacing the
knobs, check the OFF position to insure proper placement.
TOUCH CONTROL PANEL
If desired, the touch pads may be deactivated before cleaning.
See the CONTROL LOCK information on page 25 of this
manual.Wipe the panel with a cloth dampened slightly with
water only. Dry with a soft cloth. Do not scrub or use any sort
of chemical cleaners. Close door and touch STOP/CLEAR.
COOKTOP
If the cooktop should crack or break, do not use or attempt
to clean it. Call an authorized servicer.
NORMAL DAILY USE CLEANING
Only use cleaning products that have been specifically designed
for glass ceramic cooktops. Read and follow all instructions
and warnings on the cleaning cream label. A sample cleaner
cream is supplied with your range.
Before using the cooktop, clean the cooktop with the cleaner
cream. To avoid possible damage to the cooking surface, do not
apply cleaning cream to the glass surface when it is hot.
We recommend that you avoid wiping any surface unit areas
until they have cooled and the indicator light has gone off.
Sugar spills are the exception to this.
1 Apply a few drops of cleaner cream to the cooktop that is
not hot.
2 Dampen clean paper towel and clean unit.
3 Wipe off with another clean, damp paper towel, then wipe
dry.
Note:
• Make sure bottom of cookware and cooking area are clean
and dry before turning on the cooktop.
• Wipe up food spills and spatters before they burn on the
surface.
• Do not mix cleaning products. Mixtures may interact and
damage the surface.
SUGARY SPILLOVERS (JELLIES, FUDGE, CANDY,
SYRUPS ETC.), MELTED PLASTICS OR HEAVY
BURNED ON RESIDUE
Sugary spillovers, melted plastics or heavy burned on residue
can cause pitting of the surface of your cooktop unless the
spill is removed while still hot.
You must begin cleaning the spills while the cooktop is still
hot.
1 Turn off all surface units and remove all pans immediately.
2 Wearing an oven mitt, use a razor blade scraper at a 30
degree angle against the glass ceramic surface and scrape from
hot surface to a cooler area.
3 Remove the spills with paper towels.

CLEANING AND CARE
Note:
• Do not use a dull or nicked blade. Be sure to use a new,
sharp razor scraper.
• Do not use the razor blade for daily cleaning as it may wear
the pattern on the glass.
METAL MARKS OR BURNED ON RESIDUE
Metal marks and burned on residue should be removed
immediately after the cooktop has cooled. Metal marks can
become permanent if not removed prior to future use.
1 Dampen a “scratchless” or “never scratch” pad
that is safe
for non-stick cookware.
The pattern and glass will be damaged
if the pad is not damp or is soiled or if another type of pad is
used.
Apply a cleaner cream for glass ceramic cooktop.
2 Scrub to remove as much soil as possible.
3 Apply the cleaner cream over the soil, cover with a damp
paper towel and let stand 30 minutes to 1 hour. Keep moist by
covering the paper towel with plastic wrap.
4 Scrub again and wipe off with another clean, damp paper
towel. Then wipe dry.
Note:
• Do not use aluminum foil on the cooktop.
• If pots or pans of aluminum or copper are allowed to boil dry,
permanent damage may affect the ceramic glass surface.
• Do not slide pots and pans across the cooktop surface.
• Cookware with rough bottoms can mark or scratch the
cooktop surface.
• Do not use a dull or nicked blade. Be sure to use a new,
sharp razor scraper.
MICROWAVE DRAWER
INTERIOR
Cleaning is easy because no heat is generated to the interior
surfaces; therefore, there is no baking and setting of spills or
spattering. To clean the interior surfaces, wipe with a soft damp
cloth. DO NOT USE ABRASIVE OR HARSH CLEANERS
OR SCOURING PADS. For heavier soil, use mild soap; wipe
clean with a soft damp cloth. Do not use any chemical oven
cleaners.
MICROWAVE DRAWER GUIDES
Remove the food crumbs from the Microwave Drawer guides.
Wipe with a soft dry cloth in order to keep the Microwave
Drawer opening and closing easily.
WAVEGUIDE COVER
The waveguide cover is made from mica, so it requires special
care. Keep the waveguide cover clean to assure good microwave
performance. Carefully wipe with a soft damp cloth any food
spatters from the surface of the cover immediately after they
occur. Built-up splashes may overheat and cause smoke or
possibly catch fire. Do not remove the waveguide cover.
ODOR REMOVAL
Occasionally, a cooking odor may remain in the Microwave
Drawer. To remove, combine 1 cup water, grated peel and
juice of one lemon and several whole cloves in a 2-cup glass
measuring cup. Boil for several minutes using 100% power.
Allow to set in the Microwave Drawer until cool. Wipe interior
with a soft cloth.
OVEN
CAUTION Before cleaning any part of the oven, be sure the
oven is turned off. If not, press Stop/Clear.
Allow the oven to cool before cleaning.
INSIDE OF THE DOOR
You do not need to clean the area inside the gasket by hand
since the area is cleaned during the self-clean cycle.
Do not rub, clean or move the door gasket. Replace gasket
when it is worn or frayed.
The area outside the gasket and the door liner can be cleaned
with a soap-filled steel wool or plastic pad, hot water and
detergent. Rinse well with a vinegar and water solution.
