Important Safety Instructions
Turn pan handle toward center of cooktop, not out into the room or over another surface element. This reduces the risk of burns, ignition of flammable materials, or spillage if pan is accidently bumped or reached by small children.
Be sure utensil is large enough to properly contain food and avoid boilovers. Pan size is particularly important in deep fat frying. Be sure pan will accommodate the volume of food that is to be added as well as the bubble action of fat.
Never let a pan boil dry as this could damage the utensil and the appliance.
Cooktop
NEVER leave surface units unattended especially when using
high heat. An unattended boilover could cause smoking and a greasy spillover can cause a fire.
This appliance is equipped with different size surface elements. Select pans with flat bottoms large enough to cover element. Fitting pan size to element will improve cooking efficiency.
Coil Elements
To prevent damage to removable heating elements, do not immerse, soak or clean in a dishwasher or self-clean oven. A damaged element could short resulting in a fire or shock hazard.
Make sure drip bowls are in place as absence of these bowls during cooking could damage wiring.
Protective Liners: Do not use aluminum foil to line surface unit drip bowls or oven bottoms, except as suggested in the manual. Improper installation of these liners may result in a risk of electric shock or fire.
Deep Fat Fryers
Use extreme caution when moving the grease pan or dispos­ing of hot grease. Allow grease to cool before attempting to move pan.
Ventilating Hoods
Clean range hood and filters frequently to prevent grease or other flammable materials from accumulating on hood or filter and to avoid grease fires.
When flaming foods under the hood, turn the fan on.
caution. Use care to avoid steam burns if a wet sponge or cloth is used to wipe spills on a hot surface. Some cleaners can produce noxious fumes if applied to a hot surface.
Clean only parts listed in this guide.
Self-Clean Oven (select models)
CAUTION
Before self-cleaning the oven, remove the oven racks, broiler pan, food and any other utensils. Wipe spillovers to prevent excessive smoke and flare-ups.
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.
Do not use oven cleaners or oven liners of any kind in or around any part of the self-clean oven.
It is normal for the cooktop of the range to become hot during a self-clean cycle. Therefore, touching the cooktop during a clean cycle should be avoided.
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 customers of potential exposures to such substances.
Users of this appliance are hereby warned that when the oven is engaged in the self-clean cycle, there may be some low-level exposure to some of the listed substances, including carbon monoxide. Exposure to these substances can be minimized by properly venting the oven to the outdoors by opening the windows and/or door in the room where the appliance is located during the self-clean cycle.
IMPORTANT NOTICE REGARDING PET BIRDS: Never keep pet birds in the kitchen or in rooms where the fumes from the kitchen could reach. Birds have a very sensitive respiratory system. Fumes released during an oven self-cleaning cycle may be harmful or fatal to birds. Fumes released due to overheated cooking oil, fat, margarine and overheated non-stick cookware may be equally harmful.
Cleaning Safety
Clean cooktop with caution. Turn off all controls and wait for appliance parts to cool before touching or cleaning. Clean with

Adjusting the Oven Temperature
Oven temperatures are carefully tested for accuracy at the factory. It is normal to notice some baking or browning differences between a new oven and an old one. As ranges get older, the oven temperature can shift.
You may adjust the oven temperature if you think the oven is not baking or browning correctly. To decide how much to change the temperature, set the temperature 25° higher or lower than your recipe recommends, then bake. The results of the “test” should give you an idea of how much to adjust the temperature.
To adjust the oven temperature:
1. Press Bake.
2. Enter 550° by pressing the pad.
3. Press and hold the Bake pad for several seconds or until 0° appears in the display.
If the oven temperature was previously adjusted, the change will be displayed. For example, if the oven tem­perature was reduced by 15° the display will show “-15°”.
4. Press the ▲ or ▼ pad to adjust the temperature. Each time a pad is pressed, the temperature changes by
5°. The oven temperature can be increased or decreased by 5° to 35°.
5. The time of day will automatically reappear in the display. You do not need to readjust the oven temperature if there
is a power failure or interruption. Broiling and cleaning temperatures cannot be adjusted.
Sabbath Mode Notes:
• Sabbath Mode can be turned on at any time with or without the oven on.
• Sabbath Mode cannot be turned on if the touchpads are locked out or when the door is locked.
• If the oven is baking when Sabbath Mode is set, “BAKE” will go out at the end of the baking cycle. There will be no audible beeps.
• When the Sabbath Mode is started, no preheat beep will sound.
• All prompts, messages and beeps are deactivated when Sabbath Mode is active.
• Pressing CANCEL will cancel a Bake cycle, however the control will stay in the Sabbath Mode.

Care & Cleaning
Self-Clean Oven (select models)
Note: For manual clean oven, see page 18.
CAUTION
• It is normal for parts of the range to become hot during a self-clean cycle.
• To prevent personal injury and damage to the oven door do not attempt to open door when “LOCK” is displayed.
• Avoid touching cooktop, door, window or oven vent area during a clean cycle.
• Do not use commercial oven cleaners on the oven finish or around any part of the oven. They will damage the finish or parts.
The self-clean cycle uses above-normal cooking temperatures to automatically clean the oven interior. Do not force the oven door or lock lever open. This may result in exposure to high temperatures and be a burn hazard.
It is normal for flare-ups, smoking, or flaming to occur during cleaning if the oven is heavily soiled. It is better to clean the oven regularly rather than to wait until there is a heavy build­up of soil in the oven.
During the cleaning process, the kitchen should be well ventilated to get rid of normal odors associated with cleaning.
Before Self-Cleaning
1. Turn off the oven light before cleaning. The light may burn out during the clean cycle.
2. Remove broiler pan, all pans, and oven racks from the oven. The oven racks will discolor and may not slide easily after a self-clean cycle if they are not removed.
3. Clean oven frame, door frame, area outside of gasket, and around the opening in the door gasket with a nonabrasive cleaner such as Bon Ami* or detergent and water. The self-cleaning process does not clean these areas. They should be cleaned to prevent soil from baking on during the clean cycle. (The gasket is the seal around the oven door and window).
4. To prevent damage, do not clean or rub the gasket around the oven door. The gasket is designed to seal in heat during the clean cycle.
5. Wipe up excess grease or spillovers from the oven bottom. This prevents excessive smoking, flare-ups or flaming during the clean cycle.
6. Wipe up sugary and acidic spillovers such as sweet potatoes, tomato, or milk-based sauces. Porcelain enamel is acid-resistant, not acid-proof. The porcelain finish may discolor if acidic spills are not wiped up before a self-clean cycle.
To set Self-Clean:
Note: Oven temperature must be below 400° F to program
a clean cycle.
1. Close the oven door.
2. Move door lock lever right to the locked position.
3. Press the Clean pad.

During the Self-Clean Cycle
When LOCK shows in the display, the door cannot be opened. To prevent damage to the door, do not force the door open when LOCK is displayed.
Smoke and Smells
You may see some smoke and smell an odor the first few times the oven is cleaned. This is normal and will lessen in time.
Smoke may also occur if the oven is heavily soiled or if a broiler pan was left in the oven.
Sounds
As the oven heats, you may hear sounds of metal parts expanding and contracting. This is normal and will not damage the oven.
After Self-Cleaning
About one hour after the end of the self-clean cycle, LOCK will turn off. The door can then be opened. Move door lock lever to the left to unlock.
Some soil may leave a light gray, powdery ash. Remove it with a damp cloth. If soil remains after wiping, that means the clean cycle was not long enough. The soil will be re­moved during the next clean cycle.
If oven racks were left in the oven and do not slide smoothly after a clean cycle, wipe racks and rack supports
with a small amount of vegetable oil to make them easier to move.
Fine lines may appear in the porcelain because it went through heating and cooling. This is normal and will not
affect performance.
A white discoloration may appear after cleaning if acidic or sugary foods were not wiped up before the self-clean cycle. This discoloration is normal and will not affect perfor-
mance.
Notes:
• If the oven door is left open, DOOR will flash in the display and a signal will beep until the door is closed and the Clean pad is pressed again.
• The oven door will be damaged if the oven door is forced to open when LOCK is still displayed.
