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)--Sta nd 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.

= Do not touch surface heating units or surface

ii

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

surface heating and oven heating elements may behot
even though they are dark in color. Areas near surface
cooking units may become hot enough to cause burns.

ii

During and after use, do not touch, or let clothing or

ii

other flammable materials touch these areas until they

have had sufficient 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.

ii

ii

• Wear proper apparel=loose=fitting or hanging
garments should never be worn while using the

appliance. Do not let clothing or other flammable
materials contact hot surfaces.

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

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.

Keep oven vent ducts unobstructed. The oven vent

is located under the left rear surface element if your
model isequipped 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 fire.

IMPORTANTINSTRUCTIONS FOR CLEANING
YOUR RANGE.

Before manually cleaning any part of the range, be sure all
controls are turned OFF and the range is COOL.The range
may be hot and can cause burns.

• Clean the range regularly to keep all parts free of
grease that could catch fire, Pay particular attention

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

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 isequipped with
one or more surface units of different sizes. 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 element will also improve
efficiency.

• 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 filter.
Follow the manufacturer's instructions for cleaning hoods,

COIL COOK TOP MODELS

• Protective Liners--Do not use aluminum foil to line
surface unit drip bowls, or reflector pans. Only use

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

of electric shock, or fire.

• 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.

Utensil handles should be turned inward and not

extend over adjacent surfaceelements--To reduce

the risk of burns, ignition of flammable 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

elementsmHeating elements should never beimmersed
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 flaming foods under aventilating 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.

Oven vent location

The oven vent is located under the left rear surface
element (See Fig. 1). When the oven is on, warm air

ovenrack _ __

The flat oven rack or flat handle oven rack (some
models) may be used for most cooking needs.

The offset oven rack (some models) is designed to place
the base of the rack about 1/2 of a rack position lower than
normal. This rack design provides several additional
possible locations between the standard positions.

Fig. 2

Recommended rack positions by food type

Food type Position

Broiling meats See broil
Cookies, cakes, pies, biscuits & muffins 2 or 3
Frozen pies, angel food cake, yeast, bread

and casseroles 1 or 2

Small cuts of meat or poultry 1 or 2
Turkey, roast or ham 1

Air circulation in the oven

For best 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. Hot air must beable to circulate
around the pans and cookware inthe oven for even heat to

reach around the food.

Using proper cookware

The size and type of cookware used will influence the
setting needed for best cooking results. Be sure to
follow the recommendations for using proper
cookware as illustrated in Figs. 1 & 2.

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 Fig. 1).

• Flat bottom and straight
sides.

• Tight fitting lids.

• Weight of handle does not

tilt cookware. Cookware is

well balanced.

• Cookware size matches the
amount of food to be

prepared and the size of

the surface element.

• Made of material that
conducts heat well.

• Easy to clean.

• Always match cookware
bottom to element

diameter.

• Curved and warped pan
bottoms.

..... \

• Cookware overhangs element
by more than 1/2" (1.27 cm).

• Cookware is smaller than
element.

Fig. 1

• Cookware weight is not
balanced.

Fig. 2

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 flat 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 flat bottom canner with no
ridges that radiate from the bottom center when home
canningusing a ceramic cooktop.

lake 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 first bringing the water

to a boil. Once boiling is achieved, reduce heat to lowest

possible setting to maintain that boil.

NEVER place or straddle a cooking utensil over 2 different

broiler pan insert (some models) 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 non-abrasive scouring pad.
Rinse and wipe dry with a clean cloth. Do not allow food spills with a high sugar or
acid content (milk, tomatoes, sauerkraut, fruit juices or pie filling) to remain on the
surface; they may cause a dull spot even after cleaning.

The oven interior is porcelain coated and is safe to clean using oven cleaners
following manufacturer's instructions. After cleaning, remove any oven cleaner or the
porcelain may become damaged during future heating. Do not spray oven cleaner on
any electrical controls or switches. Do not spray or allow oven cleaner to build up on
the oven temperature sensing bulb. Do not spray cleaner on oven door trim, door
gasket, plastic drawer glides, handles or any exterior surfaces of the range.

Clean any soils from the oven frame, the door liner outside the oven door gasket and
the small area at the front center of the oven bottom. Clean with hot, soapy water.
Rinse using clean water and a cloth.

Oven racks Remove oven racks from oven before cleaning. Clean by using a mild, abrasive

cleaner following manufacturer's instructions. Rinse with clean water and dry.

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.

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

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 iscool 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 reflector pans. Only use

aluminum foil as recommended in this manual.

ii

Improper installation of these liners may result in risk

ii

of electric shock, or fire.

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 adamp 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.

Cleaning drip bowls

Wash in hot, soapy water or in the dishwasher. Rinse and
dry while still warm. Hard to remove, burned on soil can be
removed by soaking the drip bowls for about 20 minutes in
a lightly diluted liquid cleanser or a solution of ammonia and
water (1/2 cup ammonia to 1 gallon of water). A nylon
scrubber may be used after soaking. DO NOT use abrasive
cleaners or steel wool, they will scratch the surface. Always
rinse with clean water and polish dry with asoft cloth.

To replace drip bowls and surface elements

1. Slide the terminal end on the element through the
opening in the drip bowl (See Fig. 1).

2. Align the element support to rest on the rim inside the
drip bowl. If your drip bowl is equipped with a hold
down clip, align the element support opposite the

terminal end with the slot inthe hold down clip, and

snap into place.

3. After the element is positioned in the drip bowl, line up

the terminal end with the terminal plug as shown.

4. Hold the surface element and drip bowl together as
level as possible and firmly push the terminal end into

the terminal plug. Make sure element terminal is seated

properly into terminal plug. Make sure the surface
element is level to reduce the hazard of pans sliding off

the element.

* When lowering the lift-up range cooktop, grasp the

sides with finger-tips only. Be careful not to pinch
fingers. DO NOT drop or bend the range cooktop when
raising or lowering. This could damage the cooktop

surface. ..........

To raise the cooktop for cleaning

1. Grasp the sides and lift from the front (See Fig. 2). Lift-up
rods will support the top in a raised position. Only lift the

top far enough to allow the support rods to snap into place.

2. Clean underneath using a clean cloth and hot, soapy water

3. To lower the top, gently push back on each rod to release
the notched support. Hold the range top and slide the lift

rods down into the range frame.

Caution for aluminum use on the cooktop

Aluminum Foil - Use of aluminum foil on a hot cooktop

can damage the cooktop. Do not use thin aluminum
cooking utensils or allow aluminum foil to touch the

surface elements under ANY circumstances.

Aluminum utensils - The melting point of aluminum
is much lower than that of other metals. Care must be

taken when aluminum pots or pans are used on the
cooktop. If aluminum pans are allowed to boil dry
when using the cooktop, the utensil may be damaged
or destroyed.

Cleaning under lower element (some models)

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 ifthese elements
are touched before they have cooled sufficiently.

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.

Replacing the oven light

Besure the range isunplugged and all parts are COOLbefore
replacing oven light, Wear a leather-faced glove for protection

against possible broken glass,

The interior oven light bulb is located at the upper left rear
of the oven cavity.

To replace the oven light bulb

1. Turn electrical power off at the main source or unplug
the range.

2. Replace bulb with a new 40 watt appliance bulb.

3. Turn power back on again at the main source (or plug
the appliance back in).

4. The clock will then need to be reset. To reset, see

"Setting the clock" in this Use & Care Guide.

Removing and replacing the lift-off oven door

ii

The oven door isheavy. For safe, temporary storage, lay the
oven door flat with the inside of the door facing down.

To remove oven door

1. Open oven door completely (horizontal with floor-Fig.

1).

2. Remove 2 screws located on the inside of the oven door
liner (See A Fig. 2).

3. Insert the 2 screws into the door hinge holes located on
the side of the hinge arm, one into each hinge (See B

Fig,2).

4. Close oven door until the door stops, (do not force the
door to close any further). The placement of these
screws should keep door open in about a 4-5degree

position.

5. Grasp oven door firmly on both sides and slide door up
and off hinges at the same angle (See Fig. 3).

6. To clean oven door, follow the instructions provided
listed in the cleaning chart under "oven door".

To replace oven door

1. Be sure the hinge arms remain at the 45 degree angle
position. Be sure the screws are still locking the hinge
arms from moving. If the screws fall out of the hinge
holes, the hinge(s) may snap back against the oven
frame and could pinch fingers or chip the porcelain

finish on the oven front frame.

2. Hold door at the sides near the top while resting the
lower front of door on your knee. Insert the door
channels at the bottom of door over the door hinges,
(See Fig. 3).

3. Allow the door to slide down into the door hinges
evenly at the same 45 degree angle. The hinge arms

should be inserted into the bottom corners as far as
they can go.

4. Open door completely (horizontal with floor) and
remove both screws from holes in door hinges.

5. Reinstall the 2 screws into the door liner (See C Fig. 2).

Problem Solution

Poor baking results, o 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 istoo hot or cool, see "Adjusting Oven Temperature"

section in this Use & Care Guide.

Appliance is not level, o Be sure floor is level, strong & stable enough to adequately support range.

If floor is sagging or sloping, contact acarpenter 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.

lifted over carpet.

Surface element too hot or not hot * Incorrect control setting. Besure the correct control isONfor the element that

enough, you are attempting to use.

Surface element does not heat. - Lightweight or warped pans used. Use only flat, 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. The time of day is not set. The time of day must first 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.

Problem Solution

Oven smokes excessively during broiling. _ 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.

Flames inside oven or smoking from _ Excessive spillovers in oven. For example this will happen for pie
oven vent. spillovers or large amounts of grease left on the oven bottom. Wipe up

excessive spillovers before starting oven. If flames or excessive smoke
are present see "Broiling" in the Setting Oven Controls section.

F code error (for example F30). clear the display & stop beeping. Try the bake or broil feature again. If the

Fcode 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.

Drip bowls are pitting or rusting (coil

cooktop models only).

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

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 seacoasts 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. DONOT 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.
