How does induction work?
Most cooking uses radiant heat that must pass
through the cookware to get food hot. Induction is
a process that induces heat with an energy reaction. When each cooking zone is turned on, power
goes to a coil under the cooktop. The powered
coil creates an electromagnetic fi eld. The electromagnetic fi eld reacts with compatible materials in
cookware, creating heat in the cookware itself. The
power level controls the heating level, delivering
precise results.
Induction Benefi ts
Because heat starts in the cookware instead of the
cooktop, induction o ers several advantages.
Cleaner cooking: Because induction works by
heating the cookware and not the cooktop, spills
don’t cook or stick to the surface.
Cooler Cooktop: An induction cooktop will be
cooler when you remove cookware than a conventional cooktop would be. The only radiant heat
produced in induction is from the cookware itself,
so the kitchen stays cooler, too.
Fast Heating: Cookware will heat up faster than on
a conventional electric cooktop. Pay close attention to avoid scorching food when starting to cook.
You may need to use a lower setting for cooking
food than you are used to.
Precise Control: The heat going into the cookware
will change immediately when you change the setting of the cooking zone.
Even Heating: Cookware will typically heat more
evenly on an induction cooktop, so you are less
likely to have hot or cool spots in the cookware.
Energy E ciency: Because induction creates heat
directly in the pan, it uses less electricity than a
conventional cooktop.
13
CAUTION
Although induction cooking zones do not produce heat, they can become hot from contact
with hot cookware. Burns may occur if a cooking
zone or the surrounding area is touched before it
has cooled to a safe temperature.
Sounds
The magnetic fi eld over the induction cooking zone
may cause cookware to vibrate, creating a buzzing
or humming noise. These sounds are not unusual,
especially at high settings.
Cookware that is not
perfectly fl at on the
bottom may vibrate
slightly against the
cooktop.
A loose handle may
vibrate in its socket.
Multi-material cookware
may allow small vibrations in its structure.
Figure 1: Induction sounds
Sounds are less likely to occur with heavier, higher
quality cookware.
An induction cooktop may also produce faint clicking sounds from the electronic switches that maintain the desired cooking temperature. You may
also hear a fan that cools the electronics inside the
cooktop.
Before Using Your Cooktop
Before using your cooktop for the fi rst time, apply
a ceramic cooktop cleaning cream (available in
most hardware, grocery, and department stores)
to the ceramic surface. Clean and bu with a clean
paper towel. Cooktop cleaning creams leave a
protective fi nish on the glass that will make cleaning easier when the cooktop is soiled from cooking
and help prevent scratches and abrasions.
NOTE
Be sure to read detailed instructions for induction
cooktop cleaning in the “Care and Cleaning” section and “Before You Call” checklist section of this
Use and Care Manual.
Page 14

BEFORE SETTING SURFACE CONTROLS
Using Proper Cookware
The size and type of cookware used will infl uence
the heat setting needed for best cooking results.
Be sure to follow the recommendations for using
proper cookware as illustrated in Figure 2.
Check for fl atness by rotating a ruler across the
bottom of the cookware
(see Figure 1). Cookware
should have fl at bottoms that make good
contact with the entire
surface of the heating
element (see Figure 2).
Figure 2: Testing cookware
Cookware Material Types
Cookware material is especially important when
using an induction cooktop. The cookware must
contain magnetic iron or steel to work on an induction cooktop. Common materials for induction
cookware include the following:
• Stainless Steel - Slow heat conductor. Durable,
easy to clean, and resists staining. Some types
of stainless steel will not work on an induction
cooktop. Use the magnet test (see “Figure 4:
Magnet test”) to check stainless steel cookware.
• Cast Iron - A slow heat conductor that retains
heat very well. Cooks evenly once cooking temperature is reached.
• Porcelain-enamel on metal - Heating characteristics will vary depending on the base material. Porcelain-enamel on a compatible metal
will work on an induction cooktop. Use the
magnet test to check porcelain-enamel cookware.
To see if a piece of cookware will work on your
induction cooktop, try to stick a magnet to it. If the
magnet clings fi rmly to the bottom of the cookware, the cookware will work on your induction
cooktop
The Magnet Test
To see if a piece of cookware will work on your
induction cooktop, try to stick a magnet to it (see
Figure 2).
Magnet
Sticks
Figure 4: Magnet test
If the magnet clings fi rmly to the bottom of the
cookware, it will work on your induction cooktop.
If the magnet clings weakly or not at all, the cookware will not heat up on your induction cooktop.
Magnet
Falls
CAUTION
Proper cookware on an operating induction cooking zone will heat up very quickly. If an empty
piece of cookware is left on an operating induction cooking zone, the rapid change in temperature may warp or damage the cookware.
Cookware sold as induction-ready will often have a
symbol printed on the bottom
by the manufacturer.

Pan Sensing
When the cooktop is on, the cooking zones automatically detect when cookware is placed on the
zone. The control for that zone will light up, making
it easy to know which section of the control to use
for that cooking zone.
Figure 5 shows conditions that can prevent pan
detection.
If you remove a pan from an active cooking zone,
the zone will turn o after 30 seconds.
If the cooktop does not detect cookware in any
zone for 30 seconds, the whole cooktop will turn

Minimum and Maximum Pan Size
The cooktop graphics are guides to minimum and
maximum pan size for each cooking zone. For best
results, use cookware that matches the size of the
cooking zone.
Figure 6: Min / max pan size
The inner ring on each cooking zone indicates the
smallest pan size for the zone (Figure 8).
The outer ring on the cooktop graphic indicates the
largest pan size for that zone (Figure 9).
Cookware that is too small for a zone may not activate the cookware detection sensor. Cookware that
is much larger than a cooking zone will still cook,
but may be slower and uneven. If your cookware is
not a perfect match, it is best to use a zone a little
smaller than the bottom of the cookware.
• Cookware centered correctly
on cooking zone.
• Flat pan bottom and straight
sides.
• Pan rests completely and is
level on the cooktop
surface.
• Pan is properly balanced.
• Cookware not centered on
cooking zone.
• Curved or warped pan bottoms
or sides.
• Pan bottom rests on cooktop
edge.
• Heavy handle tilts pan.

hot due to contact with hot
cookware. The Hot Surface
Indicator will come on and
remain visible until the cooking zone cools to a
safe temperature.
HOT SURFACE
Figure 8: Hot Surface indicator
CAUTION
• Although induction cooking zones do not
directly generate heat, they can become hot
from contact with hot cookware. Burns may
occur if a cooking zone or the surrounding
area is touched before it has cooled to a safe
temperature.
• Do not place fl ammable items such as plastic
salt and pepper shakers, spoon holders, or
plastic wrapping on top of the range when it
is in use. Heat radiating from cookware could
cause these items to melt or ignite. Potholders, towels, or wooden spoons could catch
fi re if placed too close to hot cookware.
• Do not use aluminum foil to line any part of
the cooktop. Improper installation of these
liners may result in risk of electric shock or
fi re. If these items melt on the cooktop, they
will damage the cooktop.

Moving Cookware on a Smooth Cooktop
It’s best to lift cookware before moving it on the
ceramic glass cooktop. Cookware that has a rough
or dirty bottom can mark and scratch the ceramic
glass surface. Always start with clean cookware.
Power Management
Your induction cooktop has 2 generators and 4
cooking zones, depending on the model. Each
generator powers 2 cooking zones. If you use
more than one cooking zone on high power at the
same time and they are on the same generator,
the cooktop may need to manage power to the
two cooking zones.
Figure 10: Move cookware carefully on cooktop
Figure 11: Power management
To get the best performance from your cooktop,
start cooking on only one cooking zone. After the
fi rst piece of cookware has reached cooking temperature, then start cooking on the second cooking
zone.

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) Web site and be sure to read all the information they have available as well as follow their
recommendations for home canning procedures.
• Use only a completely fl at bottom canner with
no ridges that radiate from the bottom center when home canning. Heat is spread more
evenly when the bottom surface is fl at. Use a
straight-edge to check canner bottom.
• 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
and to center canners on the burner grates.
• Start with hot tap water to bring water to boil
more quickly.
• Use the highest heat setting when fi rst bringing
the water to a boil. Once boiling is achieved,
reduce heat to lowest possible setting to maintain that boil.
• Use tested recipes and follow instructions carefully. Check with your local Cooperative Agricultural Extension Service or a manufacturer of
glass jars for the latest canning information.
• It is best to can small amounts and light loads.
Do not leave water bath or pressure canners on
high heat for an extended amount of time.

Oven Vent Location
The oven is vented as shown below. When the oven is
on, warm air is released through the vent. This venting is
necessary for proper air circulation in the oven and good
baking results. Do not block oven vent. Never close o
the openings with aluminium foil or any other material.
Steam or moisture may appear near the oven vent. This
is normal.
Figure 16: Oven vent
WARNING
Protective Liners — Do not use aluminum foil
or any other material or liners to line the oven
bottom, walls, racks or any other part of the
range. Doing so will alter the heat distribution,
produce poor baking results, and possibly cause
permanent damage to the oven interior. Improper installation of these liners may result in risk of
electric shock or fi re. During self clean, temperatures in the oven will be hot enough to melt foil.
CAUTION
Types of Oven Rack

Figure 15: Oven rack types
Flat oven racks may be used for most cooking
needs and may be placed in most oven rack positions.
Removing, Replacing, and Arranging Flat
or O set Oven Racks
Always arrange the oven racks when the oven is
cool.
To remove - Pull the oven rack straight forward until it reaches the stop position. Lift up front of oven
rack slightly and slide out.
To replace - Place the oven rack on the rack guides
on both sides of oven walls. Tilt the front of oven
rack upward slightly and slide the oven rack back
into place. Be sure oven racks are level before using.
Always use pot holders or oven mitts when using
the oven. When cooking, the oven interior, oven
exterior, oven racks, and cooktop will become
very hot which can cause burns.
Remove all oven racks before starting a self clean
cycle. If oven racks are left inside the oven during
a cleaning cycle, the slide ability of the oven
racks may be damaged and all of the oven racks
will lose their shiny fi nish.
To prevent possible damage to the oven, do not
attempt to close the oven door until all the oven
racks are fully positioned back inside the oven
cavity.

* The U.S. Department of Agriculture states, “Rare fresh beef is popular, but you should know that cooking it to only
140°F (60°C) means some food poisoning organisms may survive.” (Source: Safe Food Book, Your Kitchen Guide)
The lowest temperature recommended by the USDA is 145°F (63°C) for medium rare fresh beef. For well done 170°F
(77ºC). Allow cooked meat to rest for at least 3 minutes before serving.
NOTE: Broiling is direct heat cooking and will produce some smoke. If smoke is excessive, place food further away
from element. Always watch foods carefully to prevent burning.

Self Clean
Self Clean cleans with very high temperatures (well
above normal cooking temperatures), eliminating soils completely or reducing them to very fi ne
powdered ashes you can wipe away afterwards
with a damp cloth.
This function can be programmed for clean times
between 2 and 4 hours.
Before starting self clean read all following caution
and important statements before starting a self
clean cycle
CAUTION
• Do not leave small children unattended near
appliance. During self clean cycle, the outside
of the oven can become very hot and cause
burns if touched.
• Do not line the oven walls, racks, oven bottom,
or any part of the range with aluminum foil.
This will cause permanent damage to the oven
interior and destroy heat distribution, and will
melt to the oven interior.
• Do not force the oven door open. This will damage the automatic door locking system. Use
caution when opening the oven door after the
self clean cycle ends. The oven may still be very
hot and cause burns. To avoid possible burns,
stand to side of oven when opening door to
allow steam or hot air to escape.
SETTING OVEN CONTROLS
• Do not spray oven cleaners or oven protective coatings in or around any part of the oven
interior. 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 (Figure 35). These areas heat su ciently to burn soil on. Clean using soap and water
prior to starting Self Clean.
• Remove any excessive spills. Any spills on the
oven bottom should be wiped up and removed
before starting a self clean cycle. To clean use
hot, soapy water and a cloth. Large spills can
cause heavy smoke or fi re when subjected to
high temperatures.
• Do not allow food spills with high sugar or acid
content (such as milk, tomatoes, sauerkraut,
fruit juices, or pie fi llings) to remain on the
surface as they may leave a dull spot even after
cleaning.
• Do not clean the oven door gasket. The woven
material in the gasket is essential for a good
seal. Care should be taken not to rub, damage, or remove the oven door gasket. Doing so
could cause damage to the door gasket and
compromise the performance of the oven.
31
• The health of some birds is extremely sensitive
to fumes given o during the self clean cycle of
any range. Move birds to a well ventilated room.
Important notes:
• Completely remove all oven racks and any accessories from oven cavity to avoid damage to
oven racks. If the oven racks are not removed
they may discolor.
• Remove all items from the oven and cooktop
including cookware, utensils, and any aluminum
foil. Aluminum foil will not withstand high temperatures from a self clean cycle and will melt.
Page 32
32
• The kitchen area should be well ventilated using
an open window, ventilation fan, or exhaust
hood during the fi rst self clean cycle. This will
help eliminate the normal odors.
• Do not attempt to open the oven door when
the OVEN LOCK indicator light is fl ashing.
Allow about 15 seconds for the motorized door
latch mechanism to completely lock or unlock
the oven door.

CARE AND CLEANING
Cooktop Maintenance
Consistent and proper cleaning is essential to
maintaining your ceramic glass cooktop.
Prior to using your cooktop for the fi rst time, apply
a ceramic cooktop cleaning cream (available in
most hardware, grocery, and department stores)
to the ceramic surface. Clean and bu with a clean
paper towel. This will make cleaning easier when
soiled from cooking. Cooktop cleaning creams
leave a protective fi nish on the glass to help prevent scratches and abrasions.
Sliding pans on the cooktop can cause metal markings on the cooktop surface. These marks should
be removed immediately after the cooktop has
cooled using cooktop cleaning cream. Metal marks
can become permanent if not removed prior to
future use.
Cookware (cast iron, metal, ceramic, or glass) with
rough bottoms can mark or scratch the cooktop
surface.
Do not:
• Slide anything metal or glass across the cooktop.
• Use cookware with dirt or dirt build up on the
bottom; always use clean cookware.
• Use your cooktop as a cutting board or work
surface in the kitchen.
• Cook foods directly on the cooktop surface
without a pan.
• Drop heavy or hard objects on the ceramic
glass cooktop; they may cause it to crack.
Cooktop Cleaning
CAUTION
Before cleaning the cooktop, be sure the controls
are turned to OFF and the cooktop is cool. The
glass surface could be hot from contact with hot
cookware, and burns may occur if the glass surface is touched before it has cooled su ciently.
WARNING
Do not use a cooktop cleaner on a hot cooktop.
The fumes can be hazardous to your health, and
can chemically damage the ceramic-glass surface.
For light to moderate soil:
For light to moderate soil: Apply a few drops of
cooktop cleaning cream directly to the cooktop.
Use a clean paper towel to clean the entire cooktop surface. Make sure the cooktop is cleaned
thoroughly, leaving no residue. Do not use the
towel you use to clean the cooktop for any other
purpose.
For heavy, burned on soil:
Apply a few drops of cooktop cleaning cream directly to the soiled area. Rub the soiled area using
a non-abrasive cleaning tool, applying pressure as
needed. Do not use the pad you use to clean the
cooktop for any other purpose.
If soils remain, carefully scrape soils with a metal
razor blade scraper held at a 30 degree angle to
the surface. Finish cleaning with cooktop cleaning
cream.

General Cleaning
Refer to the table at the beginning of this chapter
for more information about cleaning specifi c parts
of the oven.
Follow these cleaning precautions:
• Allow the oven to cool before cleaning.
• Wear rubber gloves when cleaning the appliance manually.
Remove soils using hot, soapy water. Do not allow
food spills with a high sugar or acid content (such
as milk, tomatoes, sauerkraut, fruit juices or pie
fi lling) to remain on the surface as they may cause
a dull spot even after cleaning. Remove spillovers
and heavy soiling as soon as possible. Regular
cleaning will reduce the e ort required for major
cleaning later.
CAUTION
Before manually cleaning any part of the oven,
be sure all controls are turned o and the oven is
cool. The oven may be hot and can cause burns.
Remove all racks and accessories from the oven
before cleaning.
Ammonia must be rinsed before operating the
oven. Provide adequate ventilation.
Aluminum Foil, Aluminum Utensils, and
Oven Liners
WARNING
Never cover any slots, holes, or passages in the
oven bottom or cover an entire oven rack with
materials such as aluminum foil. Doing so blocks
air fl ow through the oven and may cause carbon
monoxide poisoning. Aluminum foil linings may
trap heat, causing a fi re hazard.
• Protective liners—Do not use aluminum foil to
line the oven bottom. The high heat of the oven
can melt these materials to the oven cavity and
ruin the oven. These types of materials can also
reduce the e ectiveness of the air circulation in
the oven and produce poor baking results. Only
use aluminum foil as recommended in this manual. Improper installation of these liners may
result in risk of electric shock or fi re.
• 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.
• Oven racks - Do not use aluminum foil to cover
the oven racks. Using a liner in the oven restricts the heat and air fl ow needed to obtain
the best possible cooking results for any oven.
