WARNING

FIRE HAZARD: Never leave the range unattended with the cooktop on medium or high serrings.

Keep flammable items away from the cooktop. Turn off all controls when done cooking. Failure to
follow these instructions can result in fire, serious injury or death.

Throughout this manual, features and apperance may vary from your model.

How to Set

WARNING

WARNINGWARNING

FOOD POISON HAZARD: Bacteria may grow in food

at temperatures below 140°F.
Always start with hot food. Do not use warm setting
to heat cold food.
Do not use warm setting for more than 2 hours.

The WARMING ZONE, located in the back center of
the glass surface, will keep hot, cooked food at serving
temperature. Always start with hot food. Do not use to
heat cold food. Placing uncooked or cold food on the
WARMING ZONE could result in foodborne illness.

Turn the control knob to the ON position.

For models using the touch pads for warming zone
control, see section on “Using the Oven” for additional
details.

For best results, all foods on the WARMING ZONE should
be covered with a lid or aluminum foil. When warming
pastries or breads, the cover should be vented to allow
moisture to escape.

The initial temperature, type and
amount of food, type of pan, and
the time held will

affect the quality
of the food. Always use pot
holders or oven mitts when remo­ving food from the WARMING
ZONE, since cookware and plates
will be hot.

NOTE: The surface warmer will
not glow red like the cooking
elements.

Surface Units (Cont.)

Home Canning Tips

Be sure the canner is centered over the surface unit.

Make sure the canner is flat on the bottom.

To prevent burns from steam or heat, use caution when
canning.

Radiant Glass Cooktop

The radiant cooktop features heating units beneath a
smooth glass surface.

NOTE: A slight odor is normal when a new cooktop is
used for the first time. It is caused by the heating of new
parts and insulating materials and will disappear in a
short time.

NOTE: On models with light-colored glass cooktops, it is
normal for the cooking zones to change color when hot
or cooling down. This is temporary and will disappear as
the glass cools to room temperature.

The surface unit will cycle on and off to maintain your
selected control setting.

It is safe to place hot cookware on the glass surface
even when the cooktop is cool.

Even after the surface units are turned off, the glass
cooktop retains enough heat to continue cooking. To
avoid overcooking, remove pans from the surface units
when the food is cooked. Avoid placing anything on the
surface unit until it has cooled completely.

Oven Racks

Recommended rack positions for various types of
foods are provided in the Cooking Guide. Adjusting
rack position is one way to impact cooking results. For
example, if you would prefer darker tops on cakes,
muffins, or cookies, try moving food one rack position
higher. If you find foods are too brown on top try moving
them down next time.

When baking with multiple pans and on multiple racks,
ensure there is at least 1½" between pans to allow
sufficient space for air to flow.

readily can result in a browner, crisper, and thicker crust.
If using dark and coated cookware check food earlier
than minimum cook time. If undesirable results are
obtained with this type of cookware consider reducing
oven temperature by 25°F next time.

Shiny pans can produce more evenly cooked baked
goods such as cakes and cookies.

Glass and ceramic pans heat slowly but retain heat well.
These types of pans work well for dishes such as pies
and custards.

Air insulated pans heat slowly and can reduce bottom
browning.

Your new oven has a variety of cooking modes to help you get the best results. These modes are described below.
Refer to the Cooking Guide section for recommendations for specific foods. Remember, your new oven may perform
differently than the oven it is replacing. NOTE: Remove unused racks when using the oven for faster preheat,
improved efficiency and optimal performance.

Baking and Roasting Modes

Select a mode for baking and roasting based on the
type and quantity of food you are preparing. When
preparing baked goods such as cakes, cookies, and
pastries always preheat the oven first. Follow recipe
recommendations for food placement. If no guidelines
are provided, center food in the oven.

Traditional Bake

The traditional bake mode is intended for single rack
cooking. This mode uses heat primarily from the lower
element but also from the upper element to cook
food. To use this mode press the Bake pad, enter
a temperature, and then press Start. Preheating is
generally recommended when using this mode.

Convection Bake

The Convection Bake mode is intended for baking
on multiple racks at the same time. This mode uses
heat from the upper and lower elements, along with

USING THE RANGE: Cooking Modes

air movement from the convection fan to enhance
cooking evenness. Your oven is equipped with Auto
Recipe Conversion, so it is not necessary to convert the
temperature when using this mode. Baking time might
be slightly longer for multiple racks than what would be
expected for a single rack. To use this mode press the
Convection Bake pad, enter a temperature, and then
press Start. Always preheat when using this mode.

Broiling Modes

Always broil with the door closed. Monitor food closely

positions as placing food closer to the broil element
increases smoking, spattering, and the possibility of fats
igniting. For best performance center food below the broil
heating element. Broiling on rack position 7 is not

recommended.

Try broiling foods that you would normally grill. Adjust
rack positions to adjust the intensity of the heat to the
food. Place foods closer to the broil element when a
seared surface and rare interior is desired. Thicker foods
and foods that need to be cooked through should be
broiled on a rack position farther from the broiler or by
using Broil Lo.

Broil Hi

The Broil Hi mode uses intense heat from the upper

To use this mode press the Broil pad once and then
press Start. It is not necessary to preheat when using
this mode.

Broil Lo

The Broil Lo mode uses less intense heat from the upper
element to cook food thoroughly while also producing

Convection Roast

The Convection Roast mode is intended for roasting
whole cuts of meat on a single rack. This mode uses
heat from the lower, upper, and rear elements along
with air movement from the convection fan to improve
browning and reduce cooking time. It is not necessary to
convert temperature. Check food earlier than the recipe
suggested time when using this mode or use a meat
probe. To use this mode press the Convection Roast
pad, enter a temperature, and then press Start. It is not
necessary to preheat when using this mode.

through. To use this mode press the Broil pad twice and
then press Start. It is not necessary to preheat when
using this mode.

Warm

To use this mode, press the Warm pad then press Start.
Cover foods that need to remain moist and do not cover
foods that should be crisp. Preheating is not required.

crackers, chips or dry cereal. It is also recommended
that food not be kept warm for more than 2 hours.
