Know which knob or key controls each surface heating area. Place cookware with food on the cooking area before turning it on. Turn the cooking area off before removing the cookware.
Use proper pan size. This appliance is equipped with one or more surface units of different sizes.
Select cookware with flat bottoms that match the surface unit heating element. The use of under-
sized cookware may expose a portion of the heating element to direct contact and may result in the ignition of clothing or other items. Using the proper cookware on the cooking zone will improve efficiency.
To reduce the risk of burns, ignition of flammable materials, and spills due to unintentional contact with the utensil, the utensil handles should be turned inward and not extend over other cooking
areas. Never leave surface elements unattended. Boil-
overs may cause smoking and greasy spills may ignite. A pan that has boiled dry could be damaged and may damage the cooktop.
Improper cookware may break due to sudden changes in temperature. Check the cookware manufacturer's recommendations for cooktop use.
When you are flaming foods under a ventilating hood, turn on the fan.
Glazed Cooking Utensils--Only certain types of glass, glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed utensils are suitable for cooktop service without breaking due to the sudden change in temperature. Check the manufacturer's recom- mendations for cooktop use.
Do Not Use Decorative Surface Burner Covers. If an element is accidentally turned on, the decora-
tive 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 use Searing grill on the cooktop. The
Searing grill is not designed for use on the cooktop. Doing so may result in a fire.

fire.
heating elements. Surface heating elements should never be immersed in water. Heating elements clean themselves during normal opera-
tion. Make sure drip pans or drip bowls are in place.
Absence of these pans or bowls during cooking
may subject wiring or components underneath to damage.
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING YOUR OVEN
Use care when opening oven door, lower oven door, or warmer drawer (some models). Stand to the side of the appliance when opening the door of a hot range. Let hot air or steam escape before you remove or replace food in the oven.
Protective Liners--Do not use aluminum foil to line oven bottom or any other part of the appliance.
Only use aluminum as recommended for baking if used as a cover placed on the food. Any other use of protective liners or aluminum foil may result in a
risk of electric shock or fire or a short circuit.
Do not cook food on the oven bottom. Always cook in proper cookware and always use the over racks.
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR CLEANING
YOUR OVEN
Before manually cleaning any part of the appliance, be sure all controls are turned off and the range is cool. Cleaning a hot oven can cause burns.
............................. ali parts flee of
grease that could catch fire. Pay particular attention to the area around each surface element.
Do not allow grease to accumulate. Greasy deposits in the fan could catch fire. Follow the manufacturer's instructions for cleaning hoods.
Always follow the manufacturer's recommended directions for use of kitchen cleaners and aerosols.
Be aware that excess residue from cleaners and aerosols may ignite causing damage and injury.
Keep oven vent ducts unobstructed. Touching surfaces in this area when the oven is on may cause severe burns. Do not place plastic or heat-
sensitive items on or near the oven vent. These items can 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 in hot, do not let potholder contact hot heating element in oven. 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 cookware and utensils before moving the rack.
Do not use a broiler pan without its insert. Broiler pans and inserts allow dripping fat to drain away from the high heat of the broiler. Do not cover the broiler insert with aluminum foil; exposed fat and grease could ignite.
Clean ventilating hoods frequently. Grease should not be allowed to accumulate on the hood or filter.
Follow the manufacturer's instructions for cleaning hoods.
Do not touch a hot oven light bulb with a damp cloth. Doing so could cause the bulb to break. Disconnect the appliance or shut off the power to the appliance before removing and replacing the
bulb.

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 illus- trated in Figure 1 and Figure 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 Figure 1).
Figure 1: Check for level-bottomed 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. 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.

Home Canning
Be sure to read and observe all the following points when home canning with your appliance:
Use only quality flat bottom canners when home canning. Use a straight-edge to check canner bottom.
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.
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 seating when first bringing the
water to a boil. Once boiling is achieved, reduce heat to
lowest possible setting to maintain that boil. Check with the USDA (United States Department of
Agriculture) Web site and be sure to read all the infor- mation they have available as well as follow their
recommendations for home canning procedures. 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.
Alternate surface units between each batch to allow the units and surrounding surfaces to cool down. Try to
avoid canning on the same burner unit all day.
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.
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 Figure 3). 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.

Indicator light location
Never place or straddle a cooking utensil over two different surface cooking elements at the same time unless the utensil is designed for that purpose. This can cause uneven heating results. This can also cause the ceramic cooktop to fracture (for ceramic cooktop models only).
Page 10
Operating Surface Elements To operate 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 sufficiently.
Do not place flammable 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 fire if placed too close to the surface elements.
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. Only use aluminum foil as recommended in this manual.

Push in and turn the surface control knob in either direction to the desired setting. Start most surface
cooking on a higher setting and then turn to a lower setting to finish. 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 4). Each surface element provides a constant amount of heat at each setting. For more information, see the suggested surface element settings in Table 1.

Oven vent location
Type of oven racks
The oven vent is located through the upper front trim and visible when the oven door is open. 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 oven vent. Doing so may cause cooking failures, fires, or damage to the range. Steam or moisture may appear near the oven vent. This is normal.
Figure 5: Do not block oven vent location Removing, replacing, and arranging flat or offset
oven racks
Always use pot holders or oven mitts when using the
oven. When cooking, the oven interior and exterior, oven _: racks and cooktop will become very hot which can cause
burns.

Figure 6: Oven rack types Oven Rack Descriptions
Flat oven racks (or the flat handle oven rack) may be used for most cooking needs and may be placed in most oven rack positions.
The offset oven rack (some models) provides additional stepdown positions from the standard flat rack design. The offset design positions the base of the rack about 1/ 2 of a rack position lower than the flat rack and may be used in most oven rack positions.
To maximize oven cooking space, place the bottom oven rack (some models) in the lowest rack position for baking or roasting large cuts of meat.
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.
ToA_ange - Aiways a_ange ihe oven racks when the oven is cool (prior to operating the oven).
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.
Air circulation in the oven For best air circulation when baking, allow a space of 2-4
inches (5-10 cm) around the cookware for proper air circu- lation. 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.
Remove all oven racks and accessories before starting a self-clean cycle. If the oven racks are left in the oven during the self-clean cycle, they will lose their special coating properties, may turn blue, and no longer slide in and out of the oven cavity easily. If your model came with porcelain-enameled racks, those may be left in the oven during the self-clean cycle.

Baking Tips For best bake results:
Fully preheat the oven before baking items like cookies, cakes, biscuits, and breads.
When using any single rack, position the rack so that the food is in the center of the oven.
For best results when baking cakes using two oven racks, place racks in positions 2 and 4 (See Figure 8).
When baking using two oven racks, position cookware as shown in Figure 9. Allow at least 2 inches (5 cm) of space between cookware for proper air circulation.
Dark or dull bakeware absorbs more heat than shiny bakeware. It may be necessary to reduce oven temper- ature and cook time to prevent overbrowning of some
foods. Dark bakeware is recommended for pies. Shiny
bakeware is recommended for cakes, cookies, and muffins.
For batter and dough-based baked goods such as cakes, pastries, and breads, use the convection
function for best results.

Self-Cleaning
A self-cleaning oven cleans itself with temperatures well above normal cooking temperatures which eliminate soils completely or reduces them to a fine powdered ash you can
wipe away with a damp cloth.
While the oven is in operation, the oven heats to tempera- ture much higher than those used in normal cooking. Sounds of metal expansion and contraction are normal. Oder is also normal because the food soil is being removed. Smoke may appear through the oven vent.
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 (Figure 11). 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.
Completely remove all oven racks and any accesso-
ries. 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 spills. 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 spills can cause
heavy smoke or fire when subjected to high tempera-
tures.
Do not allow food spills with a high sugar or acid
content (such as milk, tomatoes, sauerkraut, fruit juices, or pie filling) 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
sufficiently to burn soil on. Clean with soap and water.
These areas are shown in white (Figure 11).
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
Figure 11: Clean around the oven door gasket
To avoid possible burns, use care when opening the oven door after the self-cleaning cycle. Stand to the side of the oven when opening the door to allow hot air or steam to
escape. Do not line the oven walls, racks, bottom, or any other
part of the range with aluminum foil. Doing so will destroy heat distribution, produce poor baking results, and cause permanent damage to the oven interior (aluminum foil will melt to the interior surface of the oven).

the oven door to lock).
,
CLn will appear in the display during the self-clean cycle, and the door locked light will glow until the self cleaning cycle is complete or cancelled and the oven temperature has cooled.
When the self-clean cycle has completed:
1. The time of day will appear in the display window, and the Clean key and door locked light will continue to glow.
2. Once the oven has cooled down for about 1 hour and the door locked light has gone out, the oven door may
be opened.
To stop or interrupt a self-clean cycle (once it has been activated):
1. Press clear off.
,
Once the oven has cooled down for about 1 hour and the door locked light has turned off, the oven door can
be opened.
,
Restart the self-clean cycle once all conditions have been corrected.
Whenever the self-clean feature is active, you may check the amount of time remaining in the self-clean cycle by pressing the clean key. Remember the range door cannot be opened until the range has cooled sufficiently. You will need to add about 1 hour to the time displayed before you can use the range for cooking.
When the oven is cool, wipe away any residue or powdered ash with a damp cloth or paper towel.

CleaningVarious Parts of Your Wall Oven
Before cleaning any part of the oven, be sure all controls are turned off and the oven is cool. Remove spills and any heavy soiling as soon as possible. Regular cleaning will reduce the number of major cleaning later.
Surface Type Recommendation
Aluminum and Vinyl Use hot, soapy water and a cloth. Dry with a clean cloth.
Painted and plastic control knobs Painted body parts
Painted decorative trims
Stainless Steel
Porcelain enamel broiler pan and insert (available by mail order)
Door liner and body parts
Oven racks
Oven door
Use a soft cloth and clean with mild dish detergent and water or a 50/50 solution of vinegar and water. Follow by rinsing the area with clean water; dry and polish with a soft cloth. Glass cleaners may be used if sprayed on a soft cloth first. Do not spray liquids directly on the oven control and display area. Do not use large amounts of water on the control panel - excess water on the control area may cause damage to the appliance. Do not use other liquid cleaners, abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, or paper towels - they will damage the finish. To remove control knobs, turn to the OFF position; grasp firmly and pull straight off the shaft. To replace knobs after cleaning, line up the flat sides of both the knob and the shaft; then push the knob into place.
Your oven finish may be made with stainless steel (some models). Clean the stainless with warm soapy water using a clean sponge or cloth. Rinse with clean water and dry with a soft clean cloth. Do not use any store bought cleaners like stainless steel cleaners or any other types of cleaners containing any abrasive, chlo- rides, chlorine or ammonia. It is recommended to use mild dish soap and water or a 50/50 solution of water and vinegar. Do not use harsh scrubbing cleaners. Only use kitchen cleaners that are especially made for cleaning stainless steel. Always be sure to rinse the cleaners from the surface as bluish stains may occur during heating that
cannot be removed. Gentle scouring with a soapy scouring pad will remove most spots. Rinse with a 1:1
solution of clear water and ammonia. If necessary, cover difficult 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 scouring pad. Rinse and wipe dry with a clean cloth. Remove all cleaners or the porcelain may become damaged during future heating.
Oven racks must be removed from oven cavity. Clean by using a mild, abrasive cleaner following manufacturer's instructions. Rinse with clean water and dry. After cleaning the racks, rub the sides of the racks with wax paper or a cloth containing a small amount of baby oil or salad oil (this will make the racks glide easier into the rack positions).
Use soap and water to thoroughly clean the top, sides, and front of the oven door. Rinse well. You may use a glass cleaner on the outside glass of the 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.
Do not clean the oven door gasket. On self-clean 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.

Porcelain enamel cooktop cleaning instructions (some models)
Do not use a cooktop cleaner on a hot cooktop. The
fumes can be hazardous to your health, and can chemi-
cally damage the cooking surface.
Before cleaning the surface cooktop, be sure the controls are turned to OFF and the cooktop is cool. Do not use
commercial oven cleaners on the exterior surfaces including cooktop and door frame.
Daily cleaning for sugary spill overs: Sugary spills can chemically damage your cooktop surface.
Therefore, you must begin cleaning the spills while the cooktop is still hot. Use caution when following the steps
below.
,
Turn off all surface units and remove all pans immedi- ately.
,
Wearing an oven mitt, wipe up carefully or move hot spills away from the element area with a clean damp
cloth.
3. Allow the cooktop to cool. Follow the instructions above for heavy, burned-on soil.
Correct and consistent cleaning is essential to maintaining your porcelain enamel cooktop. If food spills and grease spatters are not removed, they may burn onto the surface of the cooktop and cause permanent discoloration.
Daily cleaning for normal soil:
,
Allow cooktop surface to cool.
2.
Wipe off spills and spatters using a clean paper towel or a clean cloth with warm, soapy water.
,
If needed, use a soapy steel wool pad or other mild household cleaners.
4. Be sure to rinse off the cleaners or the porcelain may become damaged during future heating.
Daily cleaning for heavy, burned-on soil:
,
Allow cooktop surface to cool.
2.
Use a soap filled scouring pad with warm water or cover heavily soiled spots with a solution of clear water and ammonia. Scour gently. Rinse and wipe dry with a clean
cloth.
,
If any soil remains, apply a few drops of a recom- mended cooktop cleaning cream on the spots and rub gently using a clean damp cloth or scouring pad. Buff
with a dry cloth until all soil and cream are removed.
Frequent cleaning with the cooktop cleaning cream leaves a protective coating which helps in preventing
scratches and abrasions.
Cooktop cleaning / polishing cream can be purchased through authorized service centers or major department
stores.

Solutions to Common Problems
Before you call for service, review the following list. It may save you time and expense. Possible solutions are provided
with the problem listed:
Problem Solution
Poor baking results Many factors affect baking results. Use proper oven rack position. Center food in the
oven and space pans to allow air to circulate. Preheat oven to the set temperature
before placing food in the oven. Try adjusting the recipe's recommended temperature
or baking time. See "Adjusting the oven temperature" on page 16 if you feel the oven
is too hot or cold. If your oven is cooking poorly or Self Clean is performing badly, perform the following
check. Press Broil, press the Up button, and HI should be on the display. Place your
hand near the handle on the oven door. Between the door and the control panel, you should feel a rush of air on your hand. If so, your unit is functioning properly and you have had a power failure in your home. If no air stream is present, call a service tech-
nician to replace your cooling fan.
Appliance is not level
Cannot move appliance easily. Appliance must be
accessible for service.
Entire appliance does not
work.
Oven portion of appliance does not operate.
Surface element is too hot or not hot enough
Surface element does not heat or does not heat
evenly.
Be sure floor is level, strong and stable enough to adequately support range. If floor is sagging or sloping, contact a carpenter to correct the situation.
Poor installation. Place oven rack in center of oven and 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 and have sufficient room for appliance clearance.
Cabinets not square or are built in too tight to allow clearance for appliance. Contact
builder or installer to make appliance accessible. Carpet interferes with appliance. Provide sufficient space so appliance can be lifted
over carpet.
For models with a power cord, make sure power cord is plugged properly into outlet. If electricity to home is working, check fuse box or breaker. Call your local electric company for service outage information.
Service wiring is not complete. Call 1-800-4-MY-HOME® for assistance (See back cover).
The time of day is not set. The oven clock must first be set in order to operate the oven. See "Setting the Clock" on page 12. Be sure oven controls are set properly. See "Oven Control Features" on page 12 and review instructions for the desired cooking function in this manual or see Entire appliance does not operate in this check-
list.
