IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

CAUTION

WARNING

• Storage in or on appliance—ammable

materials should not be stored in an oven, warmer drawer, near surface units or in the storage drawer. This includes paper, plastic and

cloth items, such as cookbooks, plasticware and

towels, as well as ammable liquids. Do not store

explosives, such as aerosol cans, on or near the range.

• DO NOT LEAVE CHILDREN ALONE —children

should not be left alone or unattended in the area where appliance is in use. They should

never be allowed to sit or stand on any part of the appliance, including the storage drawer, lower broiler drawer, warmer drawer or lower double oven.

• Do not store items of interest to children in the

cabinets above a range or on the backguard of the range. Children climbing on the range to reach

items could be seriously injured.

• Do not touch surface heating units or surface

cooking elements, areas near these units or elements, or interior surface of the oven. Both

surface heating and oven heating elements may be hot even though they are dark in color. Areas near surface cooking units may become hot enough to cause burns. During and after use, do not touch, or

let clothing or other ammable materials touch these areas until they have had sufcient time to cool.

Among these areas are the cook top, surfaces facing the cook top, the oven vent openings and surfaces near these openings, oven door and oven door window.

• Wear proper apparel—loose-tting or hanging

garments should never be worn while using the appliance. Do not let clothing or other

ammable materials contact hot surfaces.

IMPORTANT

Do not attempt to operate the range during a power failure. If the power fails, always turn off the

range. If the range is not turned off and the power resumes, the range will begin to operate again. Once the power resumes, reset the clock and oven function.

• Do not use water or our on grease res— smother the re with a pan lid, or use baking

soda, a dry chemical or foam-type extinguisher.

• When heating fat or grease, watch it closely. Fat

or grease may catch re if allowed to become too hot.

• Use dry potholders - moist or damp potholders

on hot surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do not let potholders touch hot heating elements. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth instead of a potholder.

• Do not heat unopened food containers - buildup

of pressure may cause container to burst and result in injury.

IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING

YOUR OVEN

• Use care when opening oven door , lower 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.

• Keep oven vent ducts unobstructed. The oven vent is located under the left rear surface element if your model is equipped with coil elements. The oven vent is located below the backguard for models equipped with ceramic-glass cook tops. 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 interior oven racks. Always place oven racks in desired location while oven is cool. If rack must be moved while oven is hot use extreme caution. Use potholders and grasp the rack with both hands to reposition. Do not let potholders contact the hot heating elements in the oven. Remove all utensils from the rack before moving.

• 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. Do

not cover the broiler insert with aluminum foil. Exposed fat and grease could ignite.

• Protective liners—Do not use aluminum foil to line the oven bottom. Only use aluminum foil as recommended in this manual. Improper installation of these liners may

result in risk of electric shock, or re.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

SELF-CLEANING OVENS

• Clean in the self-cleaning cycle only the parts

listed in this Use & Care Manual. 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 essential for a good seal. Care should be taken not to rub, damage or move the gasket.

• 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.

IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR CLEANING

YOUR RANGE

• Clean the range regularly to keep all parts free of

grease that could catch re. Pay particular attention

to the area around each surface element. Do not allow grease to accumulate.

• Kitchen cleaners and aerosols—Always follow the

manufacturer’s recommended directions for use. Be aware that excess residue from cleaners and aerosols may ignite causing damage and injury.

• Clean ventilating hoods frequently—Grease

should not be allowed to accumulate on the hood

or lter. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for cleaning hoods.

COIL COOK TOP MODELS

• Make Sure Reector Pans or Drip Bowls Are in

Place—Absence of these pans or bowls during cooking may subject wiring or components underneath to damage.

• Carefully check the reector pans, drip bowls, and

coils for packaging material. Remove all packaging material before using the cooktop.

• Do not use decorative surface burner 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.

• Do not allow grease to accumulate around

surface burners and drip bowls.

IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING

YOUR COOKTOP

• Know which knob controls each surface heating

unit. Place a pan of food on the unit before turning it on, and turn the unit off before removing the pan.

• Use proper pan size—This appliance is equipped with one or more surface units of different sizes. Select

utensils having at 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 element will also

improve efciency.

• Utensil handles should be turned inward and not

extend over adjacent surface elements—To reduce

the risk of burns, ignition of ammable materials, and

spillage due to unintentional contact with the utensil, the handle of the utensil should be positioned so that it is turned inward, and does not extend over adjacent surface units.

• Never leave surface elements unattended at high

heat settings—Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite, or a pan that has boiled dry may melt.

• Do not immerse or soak removable heating elements—Heating elements should never be

immersed in water. Heating elements clean themselves during normal operation.

• Glazed cooking utensils—Only certain types of glass, glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed utensils are suitable for cook top service without breaking due to the sudden change in temperature. Check the manufacturer’s recommendations for cook top use.

• When aming foods under a ventilating hood,

turn the fan on.

IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE

The California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act requires the Governor of California to publish a list of substances known to the state to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm, and requires businesses to warn customers of potential exposure to such substances.

CAUTION

• Protective Liners—Do not use aluminum foil to line

surface unit drip bowls, or reector pans. Improper

installation of these liners may result in risk of electric

shock, or re.

Fig. 4

BEFORE SETTING SURFACE CONTROLS

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).

Copper - Excellent heat conductor but discolors easily (See Aluminum).

Stainless - Slow heat conductor with uneven cooking results. Is durable, easy to clean and resists staining.

Cast Iron - A slow heat conductor however will retain heat very well. Cooks evenly once cooking temperature is reached.

Porcelain-enamel on metal - Heating characteristics will vary depending on base material.

Glass - Slow heat conductor.

Element on indicator lights

Your range is equipped with one or more element on indicator lights located on the control panel just above the surface control knobs (See Fig. 1). The element on indicator light will glow when a surface element is turned ON. A quick glance at this indicator light after cooking is an easy check to be sure ALL surface controls are turned OFF.

Home Canning

Be sure to read and observe all the following points when home canning with your appliance. Check with the USDA (United States Department of Agriculture) website and be sure to read all the information they have available as well as follow their recommendations for home canning procedures.

• Use only quality at bottom canners when home

canning. Use a straight-edge to check canner bottom (see “Cookware material types” in the Before setting surface controls section).

• Use only a completely at bottom canner with no ridges that radiate from the bottom center when home canning using a ceramic cooktop.

• Make sure the diameter of the canner does

not exceed 1 inch beyond the surface element markings or burner. It is recommended to use smaller

diameter canners on electric coil and ceramic glass cooktops.

• Start with hot tap water to bring water to boil more quickly.

• Use the highest heat setting when rst bringing the

water to a boil. Once boiling is achieved, reduce heat to lowest possible setting to maintain that boil.

IMPORTANT

NEVER place or straddle a cooking utensil over 2 different surface cooking elements at the same time. This can cause uneven heating results. This can also cause the ceramic cooktop to fracture (for Ceramic cooktop models only).

Fig. 1

SETTING SURFACE CONTROLS

CAUTION

Operating surface elements

• Surface elements may appear to have cooled after

they have been turned off. The element surface may still be hot and burns may occur if the element

or the area surrounding the element is touched

before it has cooled sufciently.

• Do not place ammable items such as plastic

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 re if placed too close

to the surface elements.

• Protective liners—Do not use aluminum foil to line surface drip bowls, or reector pans. Improper

installation of these liners may result in risk of

electric shock, or re. Only use aluminum foil as

recommended in this manual.

Self-Cleaning

CAUTION

SELF-CLEANING

A self-cleaning oven cleans itself with high temperatures (well above normal cooking temperatures) which eliminate

soils completely or reduces them to a ne powdered ash

you can wipe away with a damp cloth.

IMPORTANT

Adhere to the following self-clean precautions:

• DO NOT use oven cleaners or oven protective coatings in or around any part of the oven interior.

• DO NOT clean the oven door gasket (See Fig. 1). 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 and will melt.

During the self-cleaning cycle, the outside of the range can become very hot to the touch. DO NOT leave small children unattended near the appliance.

The health of some birds is extremely sensitive to the fumes given off during the self-cleaning cycle of any range. Move birds to another well-ventilated room.

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 complete. The oven may still be VERY HOT.

• Completely remove ALL OVEN RACKS and

ANY ACCESSORIES. If the oven racks are not removed they will lose their special coating properties and no longer slide in and out of the oven cavity easily.

• Remove any excessive spillovers. Any spills on the oven bottom should be wiped-up and removed before starting the self-cleaning cycle. To clean, use hot, soapy water and a cloth. Large spillovers

can cause heavy smoke or re 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 lling) 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 sufciently to burn soil on. Clean with soap

and water. These areas are shown in white (See Fig.

1).

Fig. 1

The oven bake and broil elements may appear to have cooled after they have been turned OFF. The elements may still be hot and burns may occur if these elements are touched before they have cooled

sufciently.

IMPORTANT

For models that have a visible lower bake

element ONLY - This bake element was designed to be tilted up using your hand from the front of the bake element for cleaning purposes. Remove the bottom oven rack before raising the element. Do not to raise the element more than 4 or 5 inches from the resting position.

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. On self-cleaning models the oven door gasket is made of a woven material which is essential for a good seal. Care should be taken not to rub, damage or remove this gasket.

Do not use spray oven cleaners on the cooktop. See “Surface elements and drip bowls” in the Care & Cleaning section.

CARE & CLEANING

CAUTION

Surface elements and drip bowls

• Make sure drip bowls are in place - Absence of these bowls during cooking may subject wiring or components underneath to damage.

• Never immerse a surface element in water.

• Be sure the range is cool before removing surface

elements or drip bowls. Be careful not to bend terminal ends when replacing surface elements after cleaning.

• Protective liners—Do not use aluminum foil to line surface drip bowls, or reector pans. Only use

aluminum foil as recommended in this manual. Improper installation of these liners may result in risk

of electric shock, or re.

Surface elements may be unplugged and removed to make cleaning the drip pans easier. The surface elements clean themselves when they are turned on. Food spilled on a hot element will burn off. Food spilled on a COOL element may be cleaned with a damp cloth—any remaining soil will burn off the next time the element is used.

To remove the surface elements and drip bowls

1. Lift the edge of the drip bowl across from the terminal end. Lift the surface element and drip bowl together just enough to clear the cooktop.

2. While holding the drip bowl and surface element, gently pull the terminal end out from terminal plug. DO NOT remove hold down clip (if equipped) from the drip bowl.

Problem Solution

Solutions to common problems • BEFORE YOU CALL

Poor baking results.

Appliance is not level.

Cannot move appliance easily. Appliance must be accessible for service.

Surface element too hot or not hot enough.

Surface element does not heat.

• Many factors affect baking results. Make sure the proper oven rack

position is used. Center food in the oven and space pans to allow air to circulate. Allow the oven to preheat to the set temperature before placing food in the oven. Try adjusting the recipe’s recommended temperature or baking time. If you feel the oven is too hot or cool, see “Adjusting Oven Temperature” section in this Use & Care Guide.

• Be sure oor is level, strong & stable enough to adequately support

range.

• If oor is sagging or sloping, contact a carpenter to correct the situation.

• Poor installation. Place oven rack in center of oven. Place a level on the

oven rack. Adjust leveling legs at base of appliance until the rack is level.

• Kitchen cabinet alignment may make range appear not level. Be sure cabinets are square & have sufcient room for appliance clearance.

• Cabinets not square or are built in too tightly. Contact builder or installer to

make appliance accessible.

• Carpet interferes with appliance. Provide sufcient space so appliance can

be lifted over carpet.

• Incorrect control setting. Be sure the correct control is ON for the element

that you are attempting to use.

• Lightweight or warped pans used. Use only at, evenly balanced, medium

or heavyweight cookware. Flat pans heat better than warped pans. Cookware materials and weight of the material affect heating. Heavy & medium-weight pans heat evenly. Because lightweight pans heat unevenly, foods may burn easily.

Entire appliance does not operate.

Oven portion of appliance does not operate.

Oven light does not work.

Self-clean cycle does not work.

• The time of day is not set. The time of day must rst be set in order to

operate the oven. See “Setting the clock” in the Setting Oven Controls section.

• Make sure cord/plug is plugged correctly into outlet.

• Service wiring is not complete. Contact your dealer, installing agent or

authorized service agent.

• Electrical power outage. Check house lights to be sure. Call your local

electric company for service.

• Be sure the oven controls are set properly for the desired cooking feature.

See Setting Oven Controls in this manual or read the instructions “Entire appliance does not operate” in this checklist.

• Be sure the light is secure in the socket. Also see “Replacing the oven light”

section.

• Oven control not set properly. Follow instructions under Self-Clean.

• Self-cleaning cycle was interrupted. Follow steps under “Stopping or

interrupting a self-cleaning cycle” under Self-Cleaning.

BEFORE YOU CALL • Solutions to common problems

Problem Solution

Soil not completely removed after selfcleaning cycle.

Oven smokes excessively during broiling.

Flames inside oven or smoking from oven vent.

• Failure to clean bottom, front top of oven, frame of oven or door area

outside oven seal. These areas are not in the self-cleaning area, but get hot enough to burn on residue. Clean these areas before the self-cleaning cycle is started. Burned-on residue can be cleaned with a stiff nylon brush and water or a nylon scrubber. Be careful not to damage the oven gasket.

• Incorrect setting. Follow broiling instructions in Setting Oven Controls.

• Make sure oven door is opened to broil stop position.

• Meat too close to the broil element. Reposition the oven rack to provide

proper clearance between the meat & the element. Preheat the broil element for searing.

• Meat not properly prepared. Remove excess fat from meat. Cut

remaining fatty edges to prevent curling, but do not cut into lean.

• Broiler pan and insert wrong side up and grease not draining. Always

place insert on the broiler pan with ribs up & slots down to allow grease to drip into pan (some models).

• Grease has built up on oven surfaces. Regular cleaning is necessary

when broiling frequently. Old grease or food spatters cause excessive smoking.

• Excessive spillovers in oven. For example this will happen for pie

spillovers or large amounts of grease left on the oven bottom. Wipe up

excessive spillovers before starting oven. If ames or excessive smoke

are present see “Broiling” in the Setting Oven Controls section.

Oven control panel beeps & displays any F code error (for example F30).

Drip bowls are pitting or rusting (coil cooktop models only).

Drip bowls are turning color or distorted (coil cooktop models only).

• Oven control has detected a fault or error condition. Press clear off to clear the display & stop beeping. Try the bake or broil feature again. If the F code error repeats, remove power from appliance, wait 5 minutes and then repower appliance and set clock for the time of day. Try the bake or broil feature again. If the fault recurs, record fault and call for service.

• Foods with acids, such as tomatoes, if allowed to stand in/on bowls will

cause corrosiion. Remove and wash drip bowls as soon as possible after a spill over.

• Normal environment. Houses located along sea coasts are exposed to salt

air. Protect bowls as much as possible from direct exposure to salt air.

• Bottom surface of cookware extends beyond surface element and touches

cooktop surface. This can cause high enough temperatures to discolor the drip bowls. DO NOT use cookware of this type. Pan sizes should be matched to the size of the element. Replacement drip bowls may be purchased from your appliance dealer.
