hours before connecting it to the power supply.
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING
YOUR COOKTOP
• Know which knob controls each surface heating
unit. Place pan of food on the element before turning
it on, and turn the element off before removing the
pan.
•
Use Proper Pan Size—This appliance is equipped with
one or more surface burners of different sizes. Select
utensils having fl at bottoms large enough to cover the
surface unit. The use of undersized utensils will expose
a portion of surface heating unit to direct contact and
may result in ignition of clothing. Proper relationship of
utensil to the surface will also improve effi ciency.
• Utensil Handles Should Be Turned Inward
and Should Not Extend Over Adjacent Surface
Units—To reduce the risk of burns, ignition of
fl ammable 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 unit.
• 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 fi re.
• Never Leave Surface Units Unattended—Boilovers
cause smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite, or
a pan that has boiled dry may melt.
• 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 used of protective
liners or aluminum foil may result in a risk of electric
shock or fi re or a short circuit.
• Glazed Cooking Utensils—Only certain types of glass,
glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed
4
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
utensils are suitable for cooktop service without breaking
due to the sudden change in temperature. Check the
manufacturer’s recommendations for cooktop use.
• Do Not Use Decorative Surface Burner Covers.
If an element is accidentally turned on, the decorative
cover will become hot and possibly melt. Burns will
occur if the hot covers are touched. Damage may also
be done to the cooktop.
FOR GLASS COOKTOP ONLY
• Do Not Clean or Operate a Broken Cooktop— If
cooktop should break, cleaning solutions and spillovers
may penetrate the broken cooktop and create a
risk of electric shock. Contact a qualifi ed technician
immediately.
• Clean Cooktop Glass 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 harmful fumes if applied to a hot surface.
• Avoid Scratching the Cooktop Glass with Sharp
Objects.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR
USING YOUR OVEN
• Use Care When Opening Oven Door or Warm
& Serve Drawer (if equipped)—Stand to the side
of the appliance when opening the door/drawer of a
hot appliance. Let hot air or steam escape before you
remove or replace food in the oven/drawer.
• Keep Oven Vent Ducts Unobstructed. The oven is
vented at the back of the cooktop below backguard.
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.
WARNING
NEVER cover any slots, holes or passages in
the oven bottom or cover an entire 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.
• Placement of Oven/Warm & Serve Drawer (if
equipped) Racks. Always place oven/Warm & Serve
Drawer (if equipped) racks in desired location while
appliance is cool. Remove all utensils from the rack
before removing rack. If rack must be moved while
oven is hot, use extreme caution. Use pot holders and
grasp the rack with both hands to reposition. Do not let
pot holders contact the hot oven element or interior of
the oven/Warm & Serve Drawer (if equipped).
• Do not use a broiler pan without its insert. Broiler
pan and grid allow dripping fat to drain and be kept
away from the high heat of the broiler.
• Do not cover the broiler grid or oven bottom
with aluminum foil. Exposed fat and grease could
ignite.
• 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.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR
CLEANING YOUR OVEN
• Clean the appliance regularly to keep all parts
free of grease that could catch fi re. Exhaust fan
ventilation hoods and grease fi lters should be kept
clean. Do not allow grease to accumulate. Greasy
deposits in the fan could catch fi re. Refer to the hood
manufacturer’s instructions for cleaning.
• Cleaners/Aerosols—Always follow the manufacturer’s
recommended directions for use. Be aware that excess
residue from cleaners and aerosols may ignite causing
damage and/or injury.
• Clean in the self-cleaning cycle only the parts of
the appliance listed in this Owner’s Guide. Before
using the self-cleaning cycle of the appliance, remove
all utensils stored in the appliance.
• Do not clean the oven door gasket. The door
gasket is essential for a good seal. Care should be
taken not to rub, damage or move the gasket.
• Do not use oven cleaners. No oven cleaner or oven
liner protective coating of any kind should be used in or
around any part of the appliance.
• Remove oven racks. Oven racks color will change if
left in the oven during a self-cleaning cycle.
CAUTION
The health of some birds is extremely sensitive to the
fumes given off during the self-clean cycle of any wall
oven. Move birds to another well ventilated room.

BEFORE SETTING SURFACE CONTROLS
THE ELECTRONIC SURFACE ELEMENT
CONTROL (ESEC)
The Electronic Surface Element Control (ESEC) feature
includes digital display windows. The ESEC feature
provides a numeric digital setting for 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.
The available ESEC display settings
The ESEC control provides various heat levels from Hi
(Figure 2) to Lo (Figure 5) and OFF (Figure 1). The
settings between 3.0 and 9.5 increase or decrease in
increments of .5 (1/2). The settings between 1.2 and
3.0 are Simmer settings which decrease or increase in
increments of .2 (1/5) to Lo (Figure 5; lowest Simmer
setting) for more precise settings at lower heat levels. Use
the Recommended Surface Setting Chart to determine the
correct setting for the kind of food you are preparing.
ESEC power failure indicator message (PF)
When the range is fi rst plugged in or when the power
supply to the range has been interrupted, the ESEC
control will display the message "PF" (Power Failure;
Figure 6). After a few seconds the "PF" message will
disappear from the display.
ESEC hot element indicator message (HE)
After using any of the single or dual 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 (Figure 4). 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 be displayed (glowing “Er”) at
power up (or after a power failure) if ANY of the surface
control knobs were left in the ON positions (Figure 7).
If a power failure should occur, be sure to set all of the
surface control knobs to the OFF position. This will reset
the surface controls.
Once the surface controls have been set to the OFF
positions, 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 your authorized servicer for
assistance.
ESEC Lockout Feature ( - - )
The ESEC feature will not operate during a Self-Clean
cycle or when the Lockout feature is active. Whenever
the Lockout feature is active, “ - - “ will appear in any
ESEC digital display windows (See Figure 8) to show that
all surface elements can not be activated.

SURFACE COOKING SETTINGS
Use the chart to determine the correct setting for the
type of food you are preparing.
Note: The size and type of cookware used will infl uence
the setting needed for best cooking results.
Recommended Setting for Surface Element
Setting Type of Cooking
HIGH (HI) Start most foods; bring water to a boil
and pan broiling.
MEDIUM HIGH
(8-10)
MEDIUM (6) Maintain a slow boil; thicken sauces
MEDIUM LOW
(2 - 4)
LOW (LO) Keep warm, melting and simmering.
NOTE
Í
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 smooth top. 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 fl at.
Continue a rapid boil; frying, deep fat
frying.
and gravies; steaming vegetables.
Keep foods cooking; poaching and
stewing.

BEFORE SETTING SURFACE CONTROLS
USING PROPER COOKWARE
The size and type of cookware used will infl uence the
setting needed for best cooking results. Be sure to follow
the recommendations for using proper cookware as
illustrated in Figures 1 & 2.
Cookware should have fl at bottoms that make good
contact with the entire surface heating element (Figure
1). Check for fl atness by rotating a ruler across the
bottom of the cookware (Figure 2).
Figure 1
Figure 2
ABOUT THE CERAMIC GLASS SURFACE
The ceramic surface has radiant surface elements
located below the surface of the glass. The design of the
ceramic surface outlines the area of the surface element
underneath. Be sure to match the pan size with the
diameter of the element outline on the surface and only
fl at-bottom cookware should be used.
The type and size of cookware, the number of surface
elements in use and their 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 effi cient cooking, turn off the element several minutes
before cooking is complete. This will allow residual heat
to complete the cooking process.
NOTE
Í
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 smooth top.
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 fl at.
Be sure to read detailed instructions for ceramic glass
cooktop cleaning in the General Care & Cleaning
section and Before You Call checklist section of this
Use and Care Guide.
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 glass surface, 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 surface.
Porcelain-enamel on metal- Heating characteristics will
vary depending on base material. Porcelain-enamel coating
must be smooth to avoid scratching ceramic surface.
Glass- Slow heat conductor. Not recommended for
ceramic surface because it may scratch the glass.
NOTE
Í
Due to the high intensity of heat generated by the
surface elements, the glass surface will turn light green
when the element is turned off. This phenomenon
is normal and the glass will come back to its original
white color after it has completely cooled down. (White
glass surface only).
8
SINGLE RADIANT SURFACE ELEMENTS
The cooktop has 2 SINGLE radiant surface elements: the
left rear position and the right rear position (Figure 1).
To Operate the Single Radiant Surface Elements
1. Place correctly sized cookware on the radiant surface
element.
2. Push in and turn the surface control knob in either
direction to the desired setting (Figure 2). Start most
cooking operations on a higher setting and then turn
to a lower setting to fi nish 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.
3. When cooking has completed, turn the surface
control knob to OFF before removing the cookware.
NOTE
Í
See Recommended Setting for Surface Element table on
page 7.
SETTING SURFACE CONTROLS

ignite. Potholders, towels or wooden spoons could catch
fi re if placed too close to the surface elements.
Do not allow aluminum foil, or ANY material that
can melt to make contact with the ceramic glass
surface. If these items melt on the surface they will
damage the ceramic surface.
Figure 2 - Control knob shown is typical only.
CAUTION
Radiant surface elements may appear to have cooled
after they have been turned OFF. HE (Hot Element)
message will turn ON and will continue to glow until
the glass surface has cooled down to a moderate

SETTING SURFACE CONTROLS
DUAL SURFACE RADIANT ELEMENT
The cooktop is equipped with 1 or 2 dual radiant surface
elements located at the left front and the right front
position (Figure 1). Symbols around the knob are used
to indicate which coil of the dual radiant element will
heat. The symbol indicates that only the inner coil will
heat (Figure 2). The symbol indicates that both inner
and outer coils will heat (Figure 3). You may switch from
either coil setting at any time during cooking.
To Operate the Dual Surface Element
1. Place correctly sized cookware on the dual surface
element.
2. Push in and turn the control knob to the inner coil
symbol for smaller cookware (Figure 2) or to inner
and outer coil symbol for larger cookware (Figure 3).
Turn the knob to adjust the setting if needed. Start
most cooking operations on a higher setting and then
turn to a lower setting to fi nish 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.
3. When cooking has completed, turn the surface
control knob to OFF before removing the
cookware.

KEEP WARM ZONE
The purpose of the keep warm zone is to keep hot
cooked foods at serving temperature. Use the keep warm
feature 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 keep warm zone. All food placed
on the keep warm zone should be covered with a lid 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
diffi cult to clean. Use only plates, utensils and
cookware recommended for oven and surface use on the
keep warm zone.
To Set the keep warm zone control
NOTE: The controls and indicator light are located on the
control panel.
1. Touch the on●off pad (Fig. 4) at the keep warm zone
control position. The keep warm indicator light will
fl ash.
Note: If no further pads are touched within 25 seconds
the request to power the keep warm zone ON will clear.
2. At the keep warm controls position touch temp once
to turn ON the the warm zone at the LO (Fig. 1) power
level.
3. Each touch of temp will increase the power levels.
The keep warm zone has 3 power levels from LO (Fig.
