Reducing the cooking temperature for convection roast is not recommend-
ed. Carefully follow your recipe’s temperature and time recommendations,
adjusting the cooking time if the recipe does not specify convection roasting time.
Since convection roast cooks faster, cook time may be reduced by 25% to
40% depending on food type. You can reduce cook times by 25% from the
recommended time of your recipe, and check the food at this time. If needed, continue cooking until the desired doneness is obtained.
Use a meat probe if available with your appliance. Meat probes are also
available from most grocery and home goods stores.
Arrange oven racks so large cuts of meat and poultry are on the lowest rack
of the oven.
Do not cover foods when dry roasting - covering will prevent the meat from
browning properly.
When cooking meats, use the broiler pan and insert or a roasting rack. The
broiler pan will catch grease spills and the insert helps prevent grease splatters. If you do not have one of these accessories, they may be purchased

BEFORE SETTING SURFACE CONTROLS
BEFORE SETTING SURFACE CONTROLS
What is Electromagnetic Induction?
Induction cooking uses electromagnets to create
heat in compatible cookware.
Below each cooking zone on an induction cooktop,
there is a copper coil. When the cooking zone is
turned on, the electricity turns the coil into a type
of magnet that heats metal cookware in the cooking zone.
Induction Features
Because heat starts in the cookware instead of the
cooktop, induction oers several advantages.
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.
Cooler Cooktop: An induction cooktop will be
cooler when you remove the cookware than a conventional electric cooktop would be. Because the
cooktop doesn’t get as hot, you are not as likely to
get burned. Spills are also less likely to cook onto
the surface, making clean-up easier.
Energy Efficiency: Induction cooking wastes less
energy than a conventional cooktop, so it uses less
electricity.
Preparation
Before using your cooktop for the first 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 finish on the glass that will make cleaning easier when the cooktop is soiled from cooking
and help prevent scratches and abrasions.
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 field 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 flat 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.
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 Guide.
BEFORE SETTING SURFACE CONTROLS
15
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 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 with
uneven cooking results. 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 3: 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 firmly 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 3).
Magnet
Sticks
Figure 3: Magnet test
If the magnet clings firmly 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.
Cookware sold as
induction-ready will often
have a symbol printed on the
bottom by the manufacturer.
Induction symbol
Best type of cookware:
The most eective cookware for induction will
have a large magnetic surface covering most of the
bottom of pots and pans.
If the heating is not uniform, your cookware may
have a smaller magnetic area (in the center of the
pan or pan). Move the cookware to a smaller cooking zone.

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.

Figure 7: Cookware too large or too small
The inner ring on each cooking zone indicates the
smallest pan size for the zone (Figure 6). If cookware is too small, the display will flash and the pan
will not heat. Select a larger pan or use a dierent
cooking zone.
The outer ring on the cooktop graphic indicates the
largest pan size for that zone (Figure 7). Do not use
pans with bottoms that extend beyond the outer
circle of a cooking zone, as doing so may cause
food to heat unevenly.
Correcting Pan Sensing Errors
It is recommended that you lower the requested
power level setting before correcting a pan sensing error, then reset the zone to the desired power
level.
If conditions preventing operation are not corrected, the cooking zone will automatically turn o

Cooktop Display Windows
The range backguard provides a digital window for
each of the cooking zones located on the cooktop.
Power levels and messages are easily monitored
and controlled using the window displays in combination with the corresponding controls.
Available Power Level Settings
The cooktop control will display power levels ranging from P (Power Boost), H (high)to L (low) . The
settings between 9 and 2 decrease and increase in
1.0 increments. The lowest setting L will display just
below the lowest digital setting of 2.
Power Boost Power Level (P)
When setting an induction cooking zone for the
highest setting (to the POWER BOOST position),
the display will initially show P (Power Boost)
power level for up to 10 minutes. After 10 minutes,
the cooking zone will automatically return to the Hi
setting. The P setting is only available immediately
after activating a cooking zone.
ESEC Error Indicator Message (E)
An error message will be displayed (flashing E)
at power up (or after a power failure) if any of the
surface settings were left in the ON positions. If
a power failure should occur, set all of the four
surface controls to the OFF position. This will reset
the surface controls.
Be sure to reset the clock. Once the surface controls have been set to the OFF positions and the

Moving Cookware on a Smooth Cooktop
Always lift cookware before moving on the ceramic glass smoothtop. Cookware that has a rough or
dirty bottom can mark and scratch the ceramic
glass surface. Always start with clean cookware.
Figure 8: Do not slide cookware on cooktop
Pan Preheat Recommendations
• Induction cooking will decrease the amount of
time required to preheat a piece of cookware
compared to cooking on a radiant or gas cooktop.
• The Hot Surface indicator light will turn on
when heat is detected in a cooking zone and
will remain on until the cooktop surface has
cooled suciently.
• If cookware is moved away from the center of
an active cooking zone, the cooking zone will
become inactive. The setting display will flash
until proper cookware is placed in the center of
the cooking zone. When cookware is centered
on the cooking zone, the zone will resume heating. If a cooking zone has no cookware for 30
seconds, it will automatically shut o.
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 canner is induction compatible.
• 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
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 flammable 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 fire 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 fire. If these
items melt on the cooktop, they will damage the
cooktop.
20
BEFORE USING OVEN CONTROLS
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 9: Oven Vent
WARNING
Types of Oven Rack

oven rack
Figure 10: Oven racks and their use
• Flat oven racks may be used for all cooking
needs and may be placed in any of the oven
rack positions.
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.
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 finish.
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.
Removing, Replacing, and Arranging Flat
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.

Convection Roast
Convection roast combines a cook cycle with the
convection fan and element to rapidly roast meats
and poultry. Heated air circulates around the meat
from all sides, sealing in juices and flavors. Meats
cooked with this feature are crispy and brown on
the outside while staying moist inside.
WARNING
Should an oven fire occur, close the oven door
and turn the oven o. If the fire continues, use a
fire extinguisher. Do not put water or flour on the
fire.
CAUTION
Always use oven mitts. Oven racks will become
very hot which can cause burns.
Benefits of Convection Roasting:
• Some foods cook up 25 to 30% faster, saving
time and energy.
• No special pans or bakeware required.
To set Convection Roast:
1. Place the insert on broiler pan. Place meat (fat
side up) on insert.
2. Place prepared food on oven rack and slide into
oven.
3. Close the oven door.
4. Press Conv Roast.
5. Enter desired temperature using numeric keys.
6. Press OK/START.
When cooking is completed or to cancel convection roast press OFF.

SETTING OVEN CONTROLS
Convection Roasting tips:
• Preheating for convection roast is not necessary for most meats and poultry.
• Arrange oven racks so large cuts of meat and poultry are on the lowest rack of the oven.
• Smaller roasts and poultry should be cooked using rack position 2 or 3.
• Since convection roast cooks faster, may be able to reduce cook times as much as 25% from the recommended time of your recipe (check the food at this time). Then if needed, increase cook time until
the desired doneness is obtained.
• Carefully follow your recipe’s temperature and time recommendations or refer to the convection roast
recommendations for additional information.
• Do not cover foods when dry roasting - covering will prevent the meat from browning properly.
• When cooking meats use the broiler pan and insert. The broiler pan will catch grease spills and the
insert helps prevent grease splatters.

Setting the Sabbath Feature (for use on
the Jewish Sabbath and Holidays)
For further assistance, guidelines
for proper usage, and a complete
list of models with the Sabbath
feature, please visit the web at
www.star-k.org.
This appliance provides special settings for use
when observing the Jewish Sabbath/Holidays.
Sabbath mode disables all audible tones or visual
display changes on the oven control. Bake is the
only cooking feature available while in the Sabbath
mode. Oven controls are locked during Sabbath
mode.
You must first set the Bake feature and temperature(s) needed for the oven and Delay Start
options (if needed). Any settings made prior to
setting the Sabbath mode will be visible in the
displays.
The Sabbath mode will override the factory preset
12 hour energy saving mode, and the appliance will
stay on until the cooking features are canceled.
If any of the cooking features are canceled when
the appliance is in the Sabbath mode, no audible
or visual indicators will be available to verify the
cancellation.
If the oven interior lights are needed, be sure to
activate them prior to setting the Sabbath mode.
Once the oven light is turned on and the Sabbath
mode is active, the oven light will remain on until
the Sabbath mode is turned o and the oven lights
are turned o. The oven door will not activate the
interior oven lights when the oven door is opened
or closed.
It is recommended that any oven temperature
modification made within an active Sabbath mode
be followed with two presses of the OK/START
key. This will insure the oven remains on even if an
attempt is made to set the oven temperature outside of its temperature range.
If the oven temperature is set outside of the temperature range, the oven will default to the nearest
available temperature. Try to set the desired oven
temperature again

Self Clean
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
temperature much higher than those used in normal cooking. Sounds of metal expansion and contraction are normal. Odor is also normal because
the food soil is being removed. Smoke may appear
through the oven vent.
CAUTION
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 o during the self cleaning cycle
of any range. Move birds to another well-ventilated room.
IMPORTANT
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. 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 ACCESSORIES. 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.
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 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.
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).
• 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 temperatures.
• 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 suciently to burn soil
on. Clean with soap and water. These areas
are shown in white.

Cooktop Maintenance
Consistent and proper cleaning is essential to
maintaining your ceramic glass cooktop.
Prior to using your cooktop for the first 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 finish 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.

Cookware is light weight or warped. Use only flat, evenly balanced, medium or
heavyweight cookware. Flat pans heat better than warped pans. Cookware materials and weight of the material aect heating. Heavy and medium-weight pans heat
evenly. Because lightweight pans heat unevenly, foods may burn easily.
Mineral deposits from water and food. Remove them using cooktop cleaning creme
applied to the ceramic surface. Bu with a non-abrasive cloth or sponge.
Coarse particles such as salt or hardened soils between cooktop and utensils can
cause scratches. Be sure the cooktop surface and bottoms of utensils are clean

Oven Problems
Problem Cause / Solution
Poor baking results. Many factors aect baking results. Use proper oven rack position. Center food in
the oven and space pans to allow air to circulate. Preheat the oven to the set temperature before placing food in the oven. Try adjusting the recipe's recommended
