RANGE SAFETY
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
DO NOT TOUCH SURFACE UNITS OR AREAS NEAR UNITS – Surface units may be hot even though they are dark in color. Areas near surface units may become hot enough to cause burns. During and after use, do not touch, or let clothing or other flammable materials contact surface units or areas near units until they have had sufficient time to cool. Among those areas are the cooktop and surfaces facing the cooktop.
Use Proper Pan Size – The range is equipped with one or more surface units of different size. Select utensils having flat bottoms large enough to cover the surface unit heating element. The use of undersized utensils will expose a portion of the heating element to direct contact and may result in ignition of clothing. Proper relationship of utensil to burner will also improve efficiency.
Never Leave Surface Units Unattended at High Heat Settings – Boilover causes smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite.
Make Sure Reflector Pans or Drip Bowls Are in Place – Absence of these pans or bowls during cooking may subject wiring or components underneath to damage.
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.
Glazed Cooking Utensils – Only certain types of glass, glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed utensils are suitable for range-top service without breaking due to the sudden change in temperature.
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, the handle of a utensil should be positioned so that it is turned inward, and does not extend over adjacent surface units.
Do Not Soak Removable Heating Elements – Heating elements should never be immersed in water.
– SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS –

RANGE SAFETY
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.
Clean Cooktop With Caution – If a wet sponge or cloth is used to wipe spills on a hot cooking area, be careful to avoid steam burn. Some cleaners can produce noxious fumes if applied to a hot surface.
Use Care When Opening Door – Let hot air or steam escape before removing or replacing food.
Do Not Heat Unopened Food Containers – Build-up of pressure may cause container to burst and result in injury.
Keep Oven Vent Ducts Unobstructed.
Placement of Oven Racks – Always place oven racks in desired location while oven is cool. If rack must be moved while oven is hot, do not let potholder contact hot heating element in oven.
DO NOT TOUCH HEATING ELEMENTS OR INTERIOR SURFACES OF OVEN – Heating elements may be hot even though they are dark in color. Interior surfaces of an oven become hot enough to cause burns. During and after use, do not touch, or let clothing or other flammable materials contact heating elements or interior surfaces of oven until they have had sufficient time to cool. Other surfaces of the appliance may become hot enough to cause burns – among these surfaces are oven vent openings and surfaces near these openings, oven doors, and windows of oven doors.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
– SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS –
For self-cleaning ranges –
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 – No commercial oven cleaner or oven liner protective coating of any kind should be used in or around any part of the oven.
Clean Only Parts Listed in Manual.
Before Self-Cleaning the Oven – Remove broiler pan and other utensils.
For units with ventilating hood –
Clean Ventilating Hoods Frequently – Grease should not be allowed to accumulate on hood or filter.
When flaming foods under the hood, turn the fan on.

USING THE SURFACE COOKING AREAS

Easy ways to save energy
When heating large quantities of liquid for foods such as pasta or soup, cover with a lid to help shorten cooking time.
Preheat your pots and pans only when recommended and for the shortest time possible.
Start your food on a higher heat setting, then turn the control to a lower setting to finish cooking.

USING YOUR RANGE
Home canning information
To protect your range:
Use flat-bottomed canners on all types of
cooktops, especially ceramic glass. Canners with rippled or ridged bottoms do not allow good contact with the surface.
Center the canner over the largest surface cooking area. Do not extend more than one inch outside the surface
cooking area. Large diameter canners/pans, if not centered correctly, trap heat and can cause damage to the cooktop.
Do not place your canner on two surface cooking areas at the same time.
The type of material the canner is made of deter­mines the length of heating time. Refer to the “Characteristics of cookware materials” chart later in this section for more information.
When canning for long periods of time, allow elements and the surrounding surfaces to cool down.
1" 1"
Pan
Surface cooking area
Alternate use of the surface cooking areas between batches or prepare small batches at a time.
Start with hot water, cover with a lid, and bring to a boil; then reduce heat to maintain a boil or required pressure levels in a pressure canner.
On coil element model, keep your reflector bowls clean so that they will always reflect heat well.
For up-to-date information on canning, contact your local U.S. Government Agricultural Department Extension Office or companies who manufacture home canning products.
Optional canning kit
(Coil element model)
Most water-bath or pressure canners have large diameters. If you do canning with them at high heat settings for long periods of time, you can shorten the life of regular coil elements. This can also damage the cooktop. If you plan to use the cooktop for canning, we recommend the installation of a Canning Kit. Order the kit (Part No. 242905) from your dealer or designated service company.

Cookware tips
USING THE SURFACE COOKING AREAS (CONT.)
The pan material affects how fast heat transfers from the surface cooking area through the pa n material and how evenly heat spread s over the pa n bottom. Choose pans that provide the best cooking results.
Aluminum
• Heats quickly and evenly.
• Use for all types of cooking.
• Medium or heavy thickness is best for most cooking.
• Used as a core or base in cookware to provide even heating.
Cast iron
• Heats slowly and evenly.
• Good for browning and frying.
• Maintains heat for slow cooking.
• Can be coated with porcelain enamel.
Ceramic or ceramic glass
• Heats s low ly a nd uneve nly.
• Use on low to medium settings.
• Follow manufacturer’s instructions.
Copper
• Heats very quickly and evenly.
• Used as a core or base in cookware to provide even heating.
Earthenware
• Can be used for cooktop cooking if recommended by the manufacturer.
• Use on low settings.
Porcelain enamel-on-steel or enamel-on-cast iron
• See cast iron and stainless steel.
Stainless steel
• Heats quic k ly but uneve nly.
A core or base of aluminum or copper on the cookware provides
even heating.
• Can be coated with porcelain enamel.

CHARACTERISTICS OF COOKWARE MATERIALS

USING YOUR RANGE
Select a pan that is about the same size as the surface cooking area. Cookware should not extend more than 1 inch (2.5 cm) outside the area.
For best results and greater energy efficiency, use only flat-bottomed cookware that
makes good contact with the surface cooking area. Cookware with rounded, warped, ribbed (such as some porcelain enamelware), or dented bottoms could cause uneven heating and poor cooking results.
Cookware designed with slightly indented bot­toms or small expansion channels can be used.
Cookware with a non-stick finish has heating characteristics of the base material.
Check for rough spots on the bottom of metal or glass cookware which will scratch the ceramic glass surface.
Use flat bottom cookware for best heat conduction from the surface cooking area to the cookware. Determine flatness with the ruler test. Place the edge of a ruler across the bottom of the cookware. Hold it up to the light. No light should be visible under the ruler. Rotate the ruler in all directions and look for any light.
Do not leave empty cookware, or cookware which has boiled dry, on a hot surface cooking area. The cookware could overheat, causing damage to the cookware or the surface cooking area.
Page 11
Using the ceramic glass cooktop
(Model CES366H)
Cooking on the ceramic glass cooktop is similar
to cooking on coil elements. There are, however, a few differences:
The surface cooking area will glow red when the element is turned on. You will see the element cycling on and off – even on the HI setting – to help the
area stay at the temperature setting you chose.
Do not cook foods directly on the cooktop.
Do not cook popcorn that comes in prepackaged aluminum containers on the cooktop. The container could leave aluminum marks on the cooktop that cannot be removed completely.
Make sure the bottoms of pots and pans are clean and dry before using them. Food and water particles left on the bottoms can leave deposits on the cooktop when it is heated.
Hot surface indicator light
The hot surface indicator light on the cooktop will
glow when a surface cooking area becomes too hot to touch. The indicator light will continue to glow as long as the surface cooking area is too hot to touch, even after it is turned off.
11
USING YOUR RANGE
USING THE SURFACE COOKING AREAS (CONT.)
Lift pots and pans onto and off of the cooktop. Sliding pots and pans on the cooktop could leave marks that are difficult to remove or could leave permanent marks.
Dropping a heavy or hard object on the cooktop could crack it. Be careful when using heavy skillets and large pots. Do not store jars or cans above the cooktop.
Do not use the cooktop as a cutting board.
Do not allow anything that could melt, such as plastic, to come in contact with the cooktop while it is hot.
Sugary spills and soils can cause pitting. See “Cleaning the ceramic glass cooktop” in the “Caring for Your Range” section for more information.
Wiping off the cooktop before and after each use will help keep the surface free from stains and give you the most even heating. See “Cleaning the ceramic glass cooktop” in the “Caring for Your Range” section for care and cleaning suggestions.

USING THE OVEN

Positioning racks and pans
Place the oven racks where you need them before turning on the oven.
To move a rack, pull it out to the stop position, raise the front edge and lift it out.
Be sure the rack(s) is level.
Use pot holders or oven mitts to protect your hands if rack(s) must be moved while the oven is hot.
For best performance, cook on one rack. Place the rack so the top of the food will be centered in the oven.
When cooking with two racks, arrange the racks on the 2nd and 4th rack guides.Two sheets of cookies may be baked if sheets are switched at approximately three quarters of the total bake time. Increase baking time, if necessary.
For best results allow 2 inches of space around each pan and between pans and oven walls.
Hot air must circulate around the pans in the oven for even heat to reach all parts of the oven. This results in better baking.
Where to place pans:
WHEN YOU HAVE
1 pan 2 pans
3 or 4 pans
PLACE
In center of the oven rack. Side by side or slightly
staggered. In opposite corners on
each oven rack. Stagger pans so no pan is directly over another.
Rack placement for specific foods:
FOOD
Frozen pies, large roasts, turkeys, angel food cakes
Bundt cakes, most quick breads, yeast breads, casseroles, meats
Cookies, biscuits, muffins, cakes, nonfrozen pies

BEST USED FOR
GUIDELINES

USING ALUMINUM FOIL

NOTE: Do not line the oven bottom with foil or
other liners. It could affect the oven surface as well as the quality of your baking.
Do not cover the entire rack with alumi­num foil. It will reduce air circulation and give you poor cooking results.
Use aluminum foil to catch spillovers from pies or casseroles by placing foil on the oven rack below. Foil should be turned up at edges and be at least 1 inch larger than dish.
Place tent-shaped foil loosely over meat or poultry to slow down surface browning for long term roast­ing. Remove foil for the last 30 minutes.
Use narrow strips of foil to shield piecrust edges if browning too quickly.

BAKING/ROASTING (CONT.)
Roasting meats and poultry
For even cooking, place the meat on a rack in a shallow pan. This keeps the meat out of the drippings and allows the heat to circulate better.
Use a meat thermometer for the most accurate doneness. Insert it so the tip is in the center of the largest muscle or thickest portion of the meat or poultry. Make sure the thermometer is not touching bone, fat, or the bottom of the pan.
Saving energy
To avoid loss of heat, open the oven door as little as possible.
Use a timer to keep track of cooking time.
Plan your meals for the most efficient use of the oven by cooking more than one food at a time, or baking while the oven is still hot after cooking a meal.

ADJUSTING THE OVEN TEMPERATURE CONTROL

Although your new oven is properly adjusted to provide accurate temperatures, it may cook faster or slower than your old oven.
If you are not satisfied with the baking/roasting results, you can change the offset temperature by following the steps below.
1. Press and hold CLOCK for 5 seconds.
The display will show the time of day. Then you will see the current offset temperature, for example “00,” if you have not already adjusted the temperature.
2. Set the new offset temperature.
Press s to raise the temperature or t to lower the temperature in 10°F amounts. You can set the temperature change to as low as -30°F or as high as +30°F. A minus (-) sign will appear before the number when decreasing the temperature setting. The minus sign shows the oven will be cooler by the displayed amount. There is no sign in front of the number when increasing the temperature setting.
3. Press CLOCK to enter the offset temperature.
NOTE: The oven control will stay adjusted even
after a power failure.
How to determine the amount of adjustment needed
The chart at the right tells you how much to adjust the offset temperature to get the cooking results you want. You can figure out cooking results by the amount of browning, moistness, and rising times for baked foods.

NOTES:
Do not preheat when broiling unless your recipe recommends it.
Leave the door partly open whenever you use the oven to broil. This lets the oven stay at the proper temperatures.
1. Place the rack where you need it.
You need to place the rack so that the surface of the food is at least 3 inches away from the broil element. See “Broiling guidelines” later in this section.
2. Put your food on the broiler pan and place the
pan in the center of the oven rack.
3. Close the door to the broil stop position.
The broil stop position lets the door stay open by itself about 5 inches.

NOTE: Times are guidelines only and may need to be adjusted for individual tastes.
Broiling guidelines
Use only the broiler pan and grid provided. They are designed to drain extra juices from the cooking surface. This drainage helps prevent spatter and smoke.
To make sure the juices drain well, do not cover the grid with foil.
Trim excess fat to reduce spattering. Slit the fat on the edges to prevent curling.
Use tongs to turn meat to avoid losing juices.
Pull out oven rack to stop position before turning or removing food.
After broiling, remove the pan from the oven when removing the food. Drippings will bake on the pan if left in the heated oven, making cleaning more difficult.
For easier cleaning, line the bottom of the pan with aluminum foil. Clean the pan and grid as soon as possible after each use.

Coil element model
(Model CES365H)
Hot air and moisture escape from the oven through a vent under the left rear coil element. You can cook on this unit or keep food warm on it while the oven is on. The vent is needed for air circulation. Do not
block the vent by using extra large pans or covers. You will get poor baking/roasting results.
NOTE: Never leave plastic utensils over the vent.
They could melt.

THE OVEN VENT

Ceramic glass cooktop model
(Model CES366H)
Hot air and moisture escape from the oven through a vent on the backguard below the control panel. The vent lets air circulate properly. Be careful not to block the vent, or you could get poor baking/ roasting results.

Use the storage drawer to store cookware. You can remove the drawer to make it easier to clean under the range.
Removing the storage drawer:
1. Empty the drawer before you remove it. Pull the
drawer straight out to the first stop. (The stops are small, round objects formed in the slide rail. They keep the drawer from sliding all the way out.) Then lift the front of the drawer and pull it out to the second stop.
2. Lift the back of the drawer slightly and slide it all
the way out.
Replacing the storage drawer:
1. Position the drawer so that the lower drawer
guides rest just inside the front frame lip.
2. Lift the front of the drawer and push it in until the
metal stops on the drawer slide rails clear the upper drawer guides. Then slide the drawer closed.

USING THE SELF-CLEANING CYCLE

wWARNING
Burn Hazard Do not touch the oven during the Self-Cleaning cycle. Keep children away from oven during Self-Cleaning cycle. Do not use commercial oven cleaners in your oven. Failure to follow these instructions can result in burns, or illness from inhaling
dangerous fumes.
Before you start the Self-Cleaning cycle, make sure you:
NOTE: DO NOT clean, move, or bend the gasket.
You may get poor cleaning, baking, and roasting.
Hand-clean the areas shown. They do not get hot enough during the Self-Cleaning cycle for soil to burn away. Use hot water and detergent or a soapy, steel-wool pad for cleaning.
Do not let water, cleaner, etc., enter slots on door and frame.
Remove the broiler pan and grid and any cookware/bakeware being stored in the oven.
Wipe out any loose soil or grease. This will help reduce smoke during the Self-Cleaning cycle.
Wipe up food spills containing sugar as soon as possible after the oven cools down. When sugar is heated to a high temperature in the Self­Cleaning cycle, the high temperature can cause the sugar to burn and react with the porcelain. This can cause staining and etching, pitting, or faint white spots.
Remove the oven racks from the oven if you want them to remain shiny. You can clean the oven racks in the Self-Cleaning cycle, but they will become harder to slide. (See the “Cleaning chart” in the “Caring for Your Range” section.) If you clean the racks in the Self-Cleaning cycle, place them on the 2nd and 4th rack guides. (The guides are counted from bottom to top.)
Heat and odors are normal during the Self­Cleaning cycle. Keep the kitchen well ventilated by opening a window or by turning on a vent hood or other kitchen vent during the cycle.
IMPORTANT: The health of some birds is extremely sensitive to the fumes given off during the Self-Cleaning cycle. Move birds to another closed and well ventilated room.
DO NOT hand-clean gasket
Hand-clean frame
Hand-clean door around edge
TIPS:
Keep the kitchen well ventilated during the Self-Cleaning cycle to help get rid of heat, odors, and smoke.
Clean the oven before it gets heavily soiled. Cleaning a very soiled oven takes longer and results in more smoke than usual.
Do not block the vent during the Self-Cleaning cycle. Air must move freely for best cleaning results.
Do not leave plastic utensils on the cooktop. They may melt.
Remove any combustible items, such as paper napkins, from the storage drawer. This includes utensils with plastic handles that can become over­heated and melt.
Do not leave any foil in the oven during the Self-Cleaning cycle. Foil could burn or melt and damage the oven surface.
The oven light will not work during the Self-Cleaning cycle.

BEFORE YOU START

1. Set the oven control knob to CLEAN.
The door will lock itself within 6 seconds. If the door has a problem locking, it will try to lock itself for 1 minute. If the door fails to lock, the Self-Cleaning cycle will cancel. An error code will be displayed.
NOTE: Do not attempt to open the oven door while locking.
2. Set the cleaning time (optional).
Press the “up” (s) or “down” (t) pad(s) to select a clean time between 2 hours, 30 minutes and 4 hours, 30 minutes.
NOTE: The Self-Cleaning cycle will automatically set a 31⁄2 hour cycle unless a different time is selected.
3. During the last 30 minutes of the Self-Cleaning
cycle the oven will start to cool down.
Once the oven goes below the locked temperature:
4. Turn the oven control knob to OFF.
5. After the oven cools to room temperature,
wipe off any residue or ash with a damp cloth or sponge.
If needed, touch up spots with a mild abrasive cleanser or cleaning sponge.

USING THE SELF-CLEANING CYCLE

HOW THE CYCLE WORKS

The Self-Cleaning cycle uses very high heat to burn away soil and grease. During the cycle, the oven gets much hotter than it does for normal baking or broiling. This high heat breaks up the soil or grease and burns it away.
Your oven is automatically preset for a 31⁄2-hour Self-Cleaning cycle.
The graph at the right shows you what happens in a 31⁄2-hour Self-Cleaning cycle. Notice that the heating stops 1⁄2 hour before the 31⁄2-hour setting is up.

CLEANING THE CERAMIC GLASS COOKTOP (
MODEL
CES366H
)
Your cooktop is designed for easy care. It has been prepolished at the factory for improved protection and easier cleaning. Foods spilled directly on the cooktop will not burn off as on open-coil elements. Because of this, you should keep the surface dust free and soil free before heating. Use the Cooktop Polishing Creme, included with your range, to clean and maintain the cooktop.
WHAT TO USE
Paper towel
Clean, damp sponge
Cooktop Polishing Creme*
Non-abrasive cleanser
Cooktop Polishing Creme*
Razor scraper in a holder
Paper towel
Clean, damp sponge
Cooktop Polishing Creme*
HOW TO CLEAN
DO NOT use steel wool, plastic cleaning pads, abrasive powdered cleansers, chlorine bleach, rust remover, ammonia, or glass cleaners with ammonia. They may damage the cooktop surface.
Wipe as soon as Hot Surface Indicator Light goes off. Rinse thoroughly and dry.
Rub into soil using damp paper towel. Rinse and dry.
Rub creme into soil using paper towel. Reapply creme to remaining spots. Hold razor scraper as flat to surface as possible, scrape spots. Polish entire cooktop with creme and paper towel. Rinse and dry. Store razor blades out of reach of children.
Wipe while ceramic glass surface is warm. Rinse thoroughly and dry.
Before heating cooktop again, rub into area using damp paper towel. Rinse and dry.
To prevent scratches and abrasions, use the Cooktop Polishing Creme regularly. Scratches and abrasions do not affect cooking performance. After many cleanings, they will become less visible.

4. When the terminal is pushed into the receptacle
as far as it will go, push down the edge of the coil element opposite the receptacle.
NOTE: Reflector bowls reflect heat back to the cookware on the coil elements. They also help catch spills. When they are kept clean, they reflect heat better and look new longer.
If a reflector bowl changes color, some of your cookware may not be flat enough, or some may be too large for the coil element. In either case, some of the heat that’s meant to go into or around cook­ware goes down and heats the reflector bowl. This extra heat can cause it to change color.
3. Hold the coil element as level as possible with
the terminal just started into the receptacle. Push the coil element terminal into the receptacle.
2. Line up openings in the reflector bowl with the
