BEFORE SETTING SURFACE CONTROLS
Using Proper Cookware
The size and type of cookware used will influence
the heat setting needed for best cooking results.
Be sure to follow the recommendations for using
proper cookware as illustrated in Figure 1 and
Figure 2.
Check for flatness by
rotating a ruler across
the bottom of the
cookware (see Figure 1).
Cookware should have
flat bottoms that make
good contact with the
entire surface of the
heating element (see
Figure 2).
Figure 1: Testing cookware
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 and pitting).
• Copper - Excellent heat conductor but discolors easily (see Aluminum).
• Stainless - Slow heat conductor with uneven
cooking results. Durable, easy to clean, and
resists staining.
• Cast Iron - A slow heat conductor, but 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.

BEFORE SETTING SURFACE CONTROLS
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 o. The heating element
retains enough heat to provide a uniform and
consistent heat during the o cycle.
For ecient cooking, turn the element o several
minutes before cooking is complete. This will allow
residual heat to complete the cooking process.
The type and size of cookware, the number of
surface elements in use and their settings are all
factors that will aect 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.
CAUTION
• Surface elements may appear to have cooled
after they have been turned o. The element
surface may still be hot, and burns may occur
if the element or surrounding area is touched
before it has cooled to a safe temperature.
• Do not place flammable items such as plastic
salt and pepper shakers, spoon holders, or
plastic wrapping on top of the range when
it is in use. These items could melt or ignite.
Potholders, towels, or wooden spoons could
catch fire if placed too close to the surface
elements.
• Do not use aluminum foil to line surface drip
bowls or reflector pans. Improper installation
of these liners may result in risk of electric
shock or fire.
Element On Indicator Lights
The ELEMENT ON indicator light will turn on
when one or more elements are turned on. A
quick glance at this indicator light when cooking
is finished is an easy check to be sure all surface
elements are turned o.
Figure 3: On indicator light
NOTE
• Radiant elements have a limiter that allows
the element to cycle on and o, even at the HI
setting.
• Be sure to read detailed instructions for coil
cooktop cleaning in the “Care and Cleaning”
section and “Before You Call” checklist section
of this Use and Care Guide.

BEFORE SETTING SURFACE CONTROLS
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 flat bottom canner with
no ridges that radiate from the bottom center
when home canning. Heat is spread more
evenly when the bottom surface is flat. 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 first 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.
CAUTION
Canning can generate large amounts of steam.
Use extreme caution to prevent burns. Always
raise the lid to vent steam away from you. Safe
canning requires that harmful micro-organisms
are destroyed and the jars are sealed completely.
When canning in a water bath canner, a gentle
but steady boil must be maintained continuously
for the required time.

Single radiant surface elements
The cooktop has four single coil surface elements.
Figure 4: Surface control knobs
To operate an element:
1. Place correctly sized cookware on the element.
2. Push in and turn the surface control knob
in either direction (Figure 5) to the desired
setting (refer to the “Suggested radiant surface
element settings” in Table 1).
3. When cooking is complete, turn the radiant
surface element OFF before removing the
cookware.
Start most cooking operations on a higher setting
and then turn to a lower setting to finish cooking.
The surface control knobs do not have to be set
exactly on a particular spot. Use the graphics
provided as a guide and adjust the control knob as
needed (see Figure 1).
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.
Suggested radiant surface element settings
The suggested settings found in Table 1 below are
based on cooking with medium-weight aluminum
pans with lids. Settings may vary when using other
types of pans

BEFORE USING OVEN
Oven Vent Location
The oven vent is located under the control panel.
When the oven is on, warm air passes through
this vent.. This venting is necessary for proper air
circulation in the oven and good baking results.
Do not block the oven vent. Never close o the
openings with aluminum foil or any other material.
Steam or moisture may appear near the oven vent.
This is normal.
The Cooling Fan
The cooling fan operates during cooking. Air is
expelled through the vents between the oven door
and the control panel as shown in Figure 5.
Flat Oven Rack
Figure 6: Flat and oset oven racks
This oven comes with a flat oven rack and an
oset oven rack that may be used for most
cooking needs.
Removing, Replacing, and Arranging Flat
or Oset 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.
Figure 5: Cooling fan location
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 fire. During self clean, temperatures in
the oven will be hot enough to melt foil.
CAUTION
• 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.
• 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.
Figure 7: Removing, replacing, and arranging
racks
Air Circulation in the Oven
The rack has a special shape in the rear which
helps with the heat circulation.
Do not push the baking tray all the way to the
back wall of the cavity. This prevents the heat from
circulating around the tray. The food may be burnt,
especially in the rear part of the tray.
For best air circulation when baking, allow a space
of 2 inches (5 cm) around the cookware for proper
air circulation. Be sure pans and cookware do not
touch each other, the oven door, sides, or back of
the oven cavity.
Hot air must be able to circulate around cookware
for even heat to reach the food.

Figure 12: Baking with a single rack
IMPORTANT
For this appliance, single rack radiant bake is the
recommended bake function for best results for
batter and dough-based baked goods such as
cakes, pastries, and breads.
• For best results when baking with one oven
rack, place racks in positions 2 or 3 (Figure 11).
• When baking using one oven racks, position
bakeware as shown in Figure 12. Allow at least
2 inches (5 cm) of space between bakeware
for proper air circulation.control knob to OFF
position.
NOTE
The single rack baking image is correct, but it’s
also for presentation purposes. You may also
bake with the left pan in the front and the right
pan in the back. Either position for either pan
bakes correctly.
Figure 13: Baking with multiple racks
IMPORTANT
When baking using two oven racks, the pans on
each rack must be swapped half way through the
cook time for best results.
• For best results when baking cakes or cookies
using two oven racks, place racks in positions
1 and 3 (Figure 11) and place pans as shown in
Figure 13.
• Allow at least 2 inches (5 cm) of space between
bakeware for proper air circulation.
General Baking Tips:
• Preheat the oven 15 minutes before baking
items like cookies, biscuits, cakes, and breads.
• Dark or dull pans absorb more heat than shiny
bakeware, resulting in dark or over browning
of foods. It may be necessary to reduce the
oven temperature or cook time to prevent
over browning of some foods. Dark pans
are recommended for pies. Shiny pans are
recommended for cakes, cookies, and muns.
• Do not open the oven door too often. Opening
the door will reduce the temperature in the
oven.
• Glass bakeware is a slow heat conductor. May
require reducing oven temperature.

CARE AND CLEANING
Coil elements and drip bowls
Your cooking product includes a new generation
of electric coil element. This electric coil element
design follows/supports a change made to the UL
Standard for Household Electric Ranges related to
cooktop surface temperature detection. If ordering
replacement electric coil elements, you must
refer to the parts catalog to obtain the correct
part number for the electric coil element that was
designed to function with the specific model that
was purchased.
Figure 18: Coil element
CAUTION
• 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 reflector pans.
Improper installation of these liners may result
in risk 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 o.
Food spilled on a cool element may be cleaned
with a damp cloth—any remaining soil will burn o
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.

Aluminum Foil and Utensils
WARNING
• Never cover any slots, holes, or passages in
the oven bottom or cover an entire oven rack
with materials such as aluminum foil. Aluminum foil linings may trap heat, causing a fire
hazard.
• Protective Liners — Do not use aluminum foil
to line the oven bottom. Improper installation
of these liners may result in risk of electric
shock or fire.
IMPORTANT
• 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, not only will the utensil be damaged
or destroyed, but it may fuse to or permanently damage the coil or cooktop.
