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 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.

* Utensil Handles Should Be Turned Inward and Not Extend Over

Adjacent Surface Elements--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 isturned 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 flaming foods underaventilating hood, turn the fan on.

IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING YOUR OVEN

* Use Care When Opening 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 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 alurnin urn 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.

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 isessential 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 fire. Pay particular attention to the area underneath 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 filter. Follow manufacturer's

instructions for cleaning.

FOR CERAMIC-GLASS COOK TOP MODELS

* Do Not Cook on Broken Cook Top--If cook top should break, cleaning solutions and spillovers may penetrate the broken cook top

and create a risk of electric shock. Contact a qualified technician immediately.

* Clean Cook Top with Caution--If a wet sponge or cloth is used to wipe spills on a hot cooking area, be careful to avoid a steam burn.

Some cleaners can produce noxious fumes if applied to a hot surface.

About the Ceramic Glass Cooktop

The ceramic cooktop has radiant surface elements located below the surface of the glass. The design of the ceramic cooktop outlines the

area of the surface element underneath. Make sure the diameter of the pan matches the

diameter of the element outline on the cooktop (See Fig 1). Heat is transferred up through the surface of the cooktop to the cookware. Only

flat-bottom cookware should be used. The type

and size of cookware, the number of surface elements in use and the settings, are all factors that will affect the amount of heat that will spread to areas beyond the surface elements. The

areas surrounding the elements may become hot enough to cause burns.

About the Radiant Surface Elements

The element temperature rises gradually and evenly. As the temperature rises, the element will glow red. To maintain the selected setting, the element will cycle on and off. The heating element retains enough heat to provide a uniform and consistent heat during the off cycle. For efficient cooking, turn off the element several minutes before cooking is complete. This will allow residual heat to complete the cooking process.

NOTE: Radiant elements have a limiter that allows the element to cycle ON and OFF, even at the HI setting. This helps to prevent damage to the ceramic cooktop. Cycling at the HI setting is normal and can occur

if the cookware is too small for the radiant element or if the cookware bottom is not flat (Refer to page 13 for using correct cookware

instructions with the cooktop).

Your range is equipped with radiant surface burners with different wattage ratings. The ability to heat food quicker and in larger volumes increases as the element wattage increases.

NOTE: Please read detailed instructions for

ceramic glass cooktop cleaning in the Care & Cleaning section and Before You Call

checklist sections of this Use and Care Manual.

The Electronic Surface Element Control (ESEC)

The Electronic Surface Element Control ("ESEC") feature includes 4 digital display windows. The ESEC feature provides a numeric digital setting for 4 of the radiant surface element positions on the cooktop. These settings work the same way as normal knob setting indicators work except the settings are displayed in digital windows (Figs. 1 thru 4).

The available ESEC Display Settings

The ESEC control provides various heat levels from Hi (Fig. 2) to Lo (Fig. 4) and OFF (Fig. 1).

Use the chart (Fig. 5) to determine the correct setting for the kind of food you are preparing. The Simmer settings are used to simmer and keep larger quantities of foods warm such as stews and soups. The lower Simmer settings are ideal for delicate foods and melting chocolate or butter,

Note: The size and type of cookware used will influence the setting needed for best cooking results,

Radiant surface elements may appear to have cooled after they have been turned off. The glass surface may still be hot and burns may occur if the glass surface is touched before ithas cooled sufficiently,

Fig. 3 Fig. 4

ESEC Hot Element indicator Message (HE)

After using any of the single, dual or Bridge radiant element positions the cooktop will become very hot. Even after turning the control knob to OFF, the cooktop will remain hot for some time. The ESEC control monitors the temperature of the cooktop and displays the message "HE" (hot element) warning when the cooktop is still too hot to touch (See Fig. 1). If the HE message appears in the window, the control can still be turned on again for use.

ESEC Error indicator Message (Er)

An error message will bedisplayed (flashing "Er") at power up (or after a power failure) ifANY of the surface control knobs were left in the ON positions. If a power failure should occur, be sure to set all of the 4 surface control knobs to the OFF position (See Fig. 2). This will reset

the surface controls. Be sure to reset the clock (See page 16). Once the surface controls have been set to the

OFF positions and the clock has been set with the correct time of day, the surface controls should return to normal operation. If the surface controls do not function and the "Er" message remains in any display after following these procedures, contact an authorized

servicerfor assistance.

ESEC Lockout Feature ( - - )

The Self-Clean feature will not operate whenever a radiant surface element is ON. Conversely the ESEC feature will not operate during the Self-Clean cycle. Whenever the ESEC Lockout feature is active, "- -" may appear in any display window (See Fig. 3). If any of the surface elements are still hot during active Lockout, "HE" will appear in the window instead of the "--" message.

The Single Radiant Elements (some models)

Some models have single radiant surface elements at 2 locations; the right rear (Fig. 5) and left rear (Fig. 6) element positions. The BRIDGE (some models) element position can also be used as a single element (See Bridge Element Operating Instructions on pages 10-11).

To Operate the Single Elements (some models):

Place correctly sized cookware on the radiant surface element.

Push in and turn the surface control knob in either direction to the desired setting using the ESEC digital display

window for the desired setting (Fig. 4). Turn (do not push) the knob to adjust the setting if desired. Start most cooking operations on a higher setting and then turn to a lower setting to finish cooking. Each surface element )rovides a constant amount of heat at each setting. A glowing red surface heating area extending beyond the bottom edge of

the cookware indicates the cookware is too small for the surface heating area.

When cooking has completed, turn the surface control knob to OFF before removing the cookware. Note: The HE message will appear after turning the control knob to OFF if

the cooktop is still hot and will remain on until the heating surface area has cooled sufficiently.

Note: See page 8, Fig. 5 for recommended control settings.

heat. The symbol shown in Fig. 4 indicates that both inner and outer coils will heat. You may switch from either coil setting at

any time during cooking.

To Operate the Dual Element(s):

1. Place correctly sized cookware on the dual surface element.

2. Push in and turn the control knob counterclockwise (See Fig. 2) for smaller cookware or clockwise (See Fig. 5) for larger cookware.

3. Use the ESEC digital display window for the desired setting. Turn (do not push) the knob to adjust the setting if needed. Start most cooking operations on a higher setting and then turn to a lower setting to finish cooking. Each surface element provides a constant amount of heat at each setting. A glowing red surface heating area extending beyond the bottom edge of the cookware indicates the cookware is too small for the surface heating area.

4. When cooking has completed, turn the surface control knob to OFF before removing the cookware. Note: The HE message will appear after turning the control knob to OFF if the cooktop is still hot and will remain on until the radiant heating surface area has cooled sufficiently. Note: See page 8, Fig. 5 for recommended control settings.

Fig. 3

The Bridge Radiant Element (some models)

Some ceramic cooktops are equipped with a "BRIDGE" surface element located at the left front and middle (See Fig. 10) positions. The Bridge can be used when cooking with rectangular (like a griddle) or oval shaped cookware (Fig. 10). The element will maintain an even temperature setting across both portions of the Bridge. If needed for normal cookware, the Bridge element can work like a single element without the Bridge (See Fig. 8).

Bridge element operation symbols are located on the control panel on each side of the Bridge element control knob. These symbols indicate the direction to turn the control knob when operating the Bridge element. The symbol in Fig. 7 indicates that only the single portion of the Bridge element will heat (See Fig. 8). The symbol in Fig. 9 indicates that both the single and Bridge portions of the element will heat together (Fig. 10). You may switch from either of these settings at any time during cooking with the Bridge element.

Radiant surface elements may appear to have

cooled after they have been turned off. The glass surface may still be hot and burns may occur if the glass surface is touched before it has cooled sufficiently.

setting. Turn (do not push) the knob to adjust the setting if

needed. Start most cooking operations on a higher setting

and then turn to a lower setting to finish cooking. Each surface element provides a constant amount of heat at each setting. A glowing red surface heating area extending

beyond the bottom edge of the cookware indicates the

cookware is too small. Please note that not all cookware will fit the Bridge element correctly.

4. When cooking has completed, turn the surface control knob to OFF before removing the cookware. The HE message will appear in the display after turning the control knob to OFF if the cooktop is still hot and will remain on until the radiant heating surface area has cooled

sufficiently. Note: See page 8, Fig. 5 for recommended control settings.

The BRIDGE element may also be used in combination with the

left rear single element. Because these elements have 2

different controls, one element can be used to cook while the other element may be used to keep food warm (See Fig. 5).

Radiant surface elements may appear to have

cooled after they have been turned off. The glass surface may still be hot and burns may occur if the glass surface is touched before it has cooled sufficiently.

Operating the Warming Zone (some models)

The purpose of the Warming Zone is to keep hot cooked foods at serving temperature. Use the Warming Zone to keep cooked foods hot such as; vegetables, gravies, casseroles, soups, stews, breads, pastries and oven-safe dinner plates. Always start with hot food. It is not recommended to heat cold food on the Warming Zone.

All food placed on the Warming Zone should be covered with a lid or aluminum foil to maintain quality. For best results, when warming pastries or breads, the cover should have an opening to allow moisture to escape. Do not use plastic wrap to cover food. Plastic may melt onto the surface and be very difficult to clean. Use only plates, utensils and cookware recommended for oven and cooktop use on the Warming Zone.

Always use pot holders or oven mitts when removing food from the Warming

Zone as cookware and plates will be hot.

I 0

To Set the Warming Zone Control (some models):

1. To set the control, push in and turn the knob. The On indicator light will come on (See Figs. 1 and 2). The temperatures are approximate, and are designated by HI, MED and LO. However, the control can be set at any position between HI and LO for different levels of heating (Fig. 1).

2. When done, turn the control to OFF. The Warming Zone Hot surface indicator light will remain on until the Warming Zone cools to a moderate level (See Figs. 1 & 2).

Temperature Selection

Refer to the table for recommended Warming Zone food settings (Fig. 3). If a particular food is not listed, start with the medium level, and adjust as needed. Most foods can be kept at serving temperatures by using the medium level.

The Warming Zone will not glow red when it is hot, but becomes hot enough to

cause burns. Avoid placing hands on or near the Warming Zone until the Warming Zone Hot surface indicator light is off.

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). If aluminum pans slide across the ceramic cooktop, they may leave metal marks which will resemble

scratches, Remove these marks immediately,

COPPER - Excellent heat conductor but discolors easily. May leave metal marks on ceramic glass (see Aluminum above).

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

CAST IRON =A poor heat conductor however will retain heat very well. Cooks evenly once cooking temperature is reached. Not recommended for use on ceramic cooktops.

PORCELAIN-ENAMEL on METAL- Heating characteristics will vary depending on base material. Porcelain-enamel coating must be smooth to avoid scratching ceramic cooktops.

GLASS - Slow heat conductor. Not recommended for ceramic cooktop surfaces because it may scratch the glass.

Arranging Warming Drawer Rack Positions

The rack can be used in 2 ways:

• In the upright position to allow low profile food items to be placed both under and on top of the rack (for example, rolls or biscuits on top of the rack and a casserole dish underneath).

• In the downward position to allow you to place light weight food items and empty cookware (for example, rolls or pastries and dinner plates) on the

rack. Set the Warming Drawer rack in either position as shown below (Fig. 1).

Fig. 1

To Operate the Warming Drawer

The purpose of the Warming Drawer is to keep hot cooked foods at serving temperature. Always start with hot food. It is not recommended to heat cold food inthe Warming Drawer.

All food placed in the Warming Drawer should be covered with a lid or aluminum foil to maintain quality. Do not use plastic wrap to cover food. Plastic may melt onto the drawer and be very difficult to clean. Use only utensils and cookware recommended for oven use in the Warming Drawer.

Always use pot holders or oven mitts when removing food from the Warming Drawer as cookware and plates will be hot and you can be burned.

To Set the Warming Drawer Control

The control is used to select the temperature of the Warming Drawer. It is located on the control panel. To set the control, push in and turn the knob to

the desired setting. The temperatures are approximate, and are designated by HI (high), MED (medium) and LO (low). To set the Warming Drawer control:

1. Turn the knob to select the desired temperature setting.

2. For best results, preheat the drawer before adding food. An empty drawer will preheat in approximately 15 minutes.

3. When done, turn the control to OFF.

Warming Drawer Temperature Selection

Recommended Warming Drawer food settings are shown in Fig. 3. If a particular food is not listed, start with the MED setting. If more crispness is desired, remove the lid or aluminum foil from the food. Most foods can be kept at serving temperatures on the MED setting. When a combination of foods are to be kept warm (for example, a meat with 2 vegetables and rolls) use the HI setting. To avoid heat loss, do not open the Warming Drawer while in use.

Warming Drawer Indicator Light

The Warming Drawer indicator light is located above the Warming Drawer control knob (See Fig. 2). It turns on when the control is set, and stays on until the control is turned off. The Warming Drawer will not operate during the Self=Clean cycle,

Setting Broil

The pad controls the Broil feature. When broiling, heat radiates downward from the oven broiler for even coverage. The Broil feature is preset to start broiling at 550°F however, the Broil feature temperature may be set at any temperature

between 400°F and 550°F. For optimum browning results when broiling, preheat the broil element for 3=4 minutes.

Should an oven fire occur, leave the oven door closed and turn the oven OFF. If the fire continues, throw

baking soda on the fire or use a fire extinguisher. DO NOT put water or flour on the fire. Flour may be explosive and water can cause a grease fire to spread and cause personal injury.

To insure proper results when broiling use ONLY Electrolux Home Products, Inc. approved Broil Pan

& Insert. The broiler pan and the insert (if equipped) allows grease to drain and be kept away from the high heat of the broiler. DO

NOT use the pan without the insert. DO NOT cover the insert with foil; the exposed grease could ignite. DO NOT use the broil pan without the insert or cover the insert with aluminum foil. The exposed fat could ignite.

INSTRUCTIONS PRESS DISPLAY

To set the oven to broil at the default setting (550°F):

1. Place the broiler pan insert on the broiler pan. Then place the food on the broiler pan insert. DO NOT use the broiler pan without the insert. DO NOT cover the broiler insert with foil. The exposed grease could ignite (See Fig. 6).

2. Arrange the interior oven rack and place the broiler pan on the rack. Be sure to center the broiler pan directly under the broiler element. Make sure the oven door is in the broil stop position (See Fig. 5).

Press "BROIL" will flash and "550 °"will appear (Fig. 1).

If a lower broil temperature is desired (minimum broil temperature setting is 400°F), press the desired temperature before continuing to step 5.

the stop position before turning or removing food.

7. To cancel broiling or if finished broiling press _f' (Fig. 3).

Recommended Broiling Times Use the following table for approximate broiling times. Increase or decrease broiling times, or

move the broiling pan to a different rack position to suit for doneness. If the food you are broiling is not listed in the table, follow the instructions provided in your cookbook and watch the item closely.

Setting Convection Bake

The CONV BAKE, pad controls the Convection Bake feature. Use the Convection Bake feature when cooking speed isdesired. The oven

can be programmed for Convection Bake at any temperature between 325 ° F (163 ° C)to 550 ° F (288 ° C).

Fig. 1=Air circulation of Convection Cooking

Convection baking uses afan to circulate the oven's heat evenly and continuously within the oven (See Fig. 1).This improved heat distribution allows for even cooking and excellent results using multiple racks at the same time. Foods cooked on a single oven rack will generally cook faster and more evenly with Convection Bake. Multiple oven rack cooking may slightly increase cook times for some foods, but the overall result is time saved. Breads and pastries brown more

evenly.

Tips for Convection Bake

1. Time reductions will vary depending on the amount and type of food to be cooked. Cookies and biscuits should be baked on pans with no sides or very low sides to allow heated air to circulate around the food. Food baked on pans with

a dark finish will cook faster.

2. When using Convection Bake with a single rack, place oven rack in position 3 or 4. If cooking on multiple racks, place the oven racks in positions 2 and 5 (for 2 racks). Place in positions 1,4 and 6 (for 3 racks). Refer to Fig. 1.

Cakes have better results when baked using the BAKE, pad.

INSTRUCTIONS
