heating element The usa of undersized cookware willexpose a pardon of the surface unit to direct
contact and may resultin ignitionof clothing.Proper relationshipof oookware to surface unit will
also improve efficiency.

II Never leave the surface units unattended at

high heat settings. Boilovers cause smoking
and greasy sp'dlovers that may catch on fire.

• Only certain types of glass, glass/ceramic,
earthenware or other glazed containers are

suitable for cooktop service; others may break
became of the sudden change in temperature.

• To minimize the posfib'_ of burns, ignidon
of flammable materials and spillage, the handle

of a container should be mined toward the
center of the range without extending over

nearby surface units.

• Always turn the surface units offbefore

removing cookware.

• When preparing flaming foods under the

hood, turn the fan on.

[] Use care when touching the cooktop.

The glass surface of the cooktop will retain
heat after the controls have been turned off.

• Keep an eye on foods being fried at high or
medium high heat settings.

• Foods for frying should be as dry as possible.
Frost on frozen foods or moisture on fresh

foods can cause hot fat to bubble up and
over the sides of the pan.

[] Use tittle fat for effective shallow or deep

fat frying. Filling the pan too full of fat can
cause spillovers when food is added.

• Ira combination of o'ds or fats will be used

in frying, stir together before heating, or
as fats melt slowly.

[] Always heat fat slowly, and watch as it heats.
[] Use a deep fat thermometer whenever

possible to prevent overheating fat beyond
the smoking point.

[] Avoid scratching the glass cooktop. The

cooktop can be scratched with items such

as sharp instruments, rings or other jewelry,

and rivets on clothing.

•Iarge scratches or impacts to glass doors or
cooktops can lead to broken or shattered glass.

• Do not operate the radiant surface units if the

glass is broken. Spillovers or cleaning solution

may penetrate a broken cooktop and create a
risk of electrical shock. Contact a qualified

technician immediately should your glass
cooktop become broken.

• Never use the glass cooktop surface as a

cutting board.

• Do not place or store items that can melt or

catch fire on the glass cooktop, even when it

is not being used.

• Be careful when placing spoons or other

stirring utensils on glass cooktop surface when
it is in use. They may become hot and could
cause burns.

• Clean the cooktop with caution. If a wet

sponge or cloth is used to wipe spills on a hot

surface unit, be careful to avoid steam burns.
Some cleaners can produce noxious fumes if
applied to a hot surface.

NOTE:We recommend that you avoid wiping
any surface unit areas until they have cooled
and the indicator light has gone off. Sugar
sp'dls axe the e-xc_pdun to this. Please see the

Cleaning the glass ceoktop section.

• When the cooktop is cool, use only the

CERAMA BRYI'E ®Ceramic Cooktop Cleaner
and the CERAMA BRYIE Ceramic Cooktop

Cleaning Pad to clean the cooktop.

• To avoid possible damage to the cooking
surface, do not apply cleaning cream to

the glass surface when it is hot.

• After cleaning, use a dry cloth or paper towel

to remove all cleaning cream residue.

Aluminum Foil

You can use aluminum foil to line the

broiler pan and broiler grid. However,

you must mold the foil tightly to the grid

and cut slits in it just like the grid.

Without the slits, the foil will prevent fat

and meat juices from draining into the
broiler pan. The jnices could become

hot enough to catch on fire. If you
do not cut the slits, you are essentially
frying, not broiling.

Donotusealuminumfoilonthebottomof

theoven.

Never entirely cover a rack with
aluminum foil. This will disturb the heat

circulation and result in poor baking.

A smaller sheet of foil may be used to

catch a spillover by placing it on a lower
rack several inches below the food.

Cookware for Convection Cooking

Before using your convection oven, check
to see if your cookware leaves room for air
circulation in the oven. If you are baking
with several pans, leave space between
them. Also, be sure the pans do not touch

each other or the walls of the oven.

Paper andPlastic

Heat-resistant paper and plastic
containers that are recommended for

use in regular baking can also be used
for convection baking, but should not
be used at temperatures higher than

the temperature recommended by the
cookware manufacturer. Plastic cookware

that is heat-resistant to temperatures of
400°F can also be used.

Metal and Glass

Any type of cookware willwork in your
convection oven. However, metal pans

heat the fastest and are recommended

for convection baking.

the probe into the meat. Make sure

it is pushed all the way in.

[] Plug the probe into the outlet in the

oven. Make sure it ispushed all the
way in. Close the oven door.

[] Touch the PROBEpad.
[] Touch the number pads to set the

desired internal meat temperature.

[] Touch the CONVECTIONROAST pad.

[] Touch the number pads to set the

desired oven temperature.

The display will flash PROBEand the oven

When the oven starts to heat, the word

LOwill be in the display.

After the internal temperature of the

meat reaches 100°E the changing

Usingtheself-cleaning oven.

The oven doormust be closed and allcontrolsset correctly forthe cycle to workproperly.

Before a Clean Cycle

®

Wipe upheavy soilon the oven
bottom.

We recommend venting your kitchen
with an open window or using a
ventilation fan or hood during the

first self-dean cycle.
Remove the convection roasting rack,

broiler pan, broiler grid, probe,
all cookware and any aluminum foil

from the oven.

NOIE

! If your oven is equipped with shiny,

silver-colored oven racks, remove them
before you begin the self-clean cycle.

m Ifyour oven is equipped with gray

porcelain-coated oven racks, they
may be left in the oven during the

self-clean cycle.

The shiny, silver-colored oven racks

(on some models) and the convection

roasting rack can be self-cleaned, but they
will darken, lose their luster and become

hard to slide.

Soil on the front frame of the range and
outside the gasket on the door will need

to be cleaned by hand. Clean these areas

with hot water, soap-filled steel-wool pads

or cleansers such as Soft Scrub _.Rinse

well with clean water and dry.

Do not clean the gasket. The fiberglass

material of the oven door gasket cannot

withstand abrasion. It isessential for the

gasket to remain intact. If you notice it

becoming worn or frayed, replace it.
Wipe up any heavy spillovers on the

oven bottom.
Make sure the oven light bulb cover is

in place and the oven light is off.
IMPORTAN'E: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.
