IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING THE APPLIANCE

WARNING Read all safety instructions before using the product. Failure to follow these instructions may result in fire, electrical shock, serious injury or death.

WARNING If the information in this manual is not followed exactly, a fire or explosion may result, causing property damage, personal injury or death.

-Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this or any other appliance.

ANTI-TIP DEVICE

WARNING

Tip-Over Hazard

• A child or adult can tip the range and be killed.

• Install the anti-tip bracket to the wall or floor.

• Engage the range to the anti-tip bracket by sliding the range back such that the foot is engaged.

Re-engage the anti-tip bracket if the range is moved.

Failure to do so can result in death or serious burns to children or adults.

To reduce the risk of tipping the range, the range must be secured by a properly installed anti-tip bracket. See installation instructions shipped with the bracket for complete details before attempting to install.

For Free-Standing and Slide-In Ranges

To check if the bracket is installed and engaged properly, look underneath the

range to see that the rear leveling leg is engaged in the bracket. On some models, the storage drawer or kick panel can be removed for easy inspection. If visual inspection is not possible, slide the range forward, confirm the anti-tip bracket is securely attached to the floor or wall, and slide the range back so the rear leveling leg is under the anti-tip bracket.

If the range is pulled from the wall for any reason, always repeat this procedure to verify the range is properly secured by the anti-tip bracket.

Never completely remove the leveling legs or the range will not be secured to the anti-tip device properly.

WARNING OVEN SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING NEVER cover any slots, holes, or passages in the oven bottom or cover an entire rack with materials such as aluminum foil or oven liners.

How to Remove Protective Shipping Film and Packaging Tape

Carefully grasp a corner of the protective shipping film with your fingers and slowly peel it from the appliance surface. Do not use any sharp items to remove the film. Remove all of the film before using the appliance for the first time.

To assure no damage is done to the finish of the product, the safest way to remove the adhesive from packaging tape on new appliances is an application of a household liquid dishwashing detergent. Apply with a soft cloth and allow to soak.

NOTE: The adhesive must be removed from all parts. It cannot be removed if it is baked on.

Lighting a Surface Burner

WARNING Burners should be operated only when covered by cookware. Burner flames not covered by cookware present a risk of fire or clothing ignition. Never let flames extend beyond the sides of the cookware. Failure to comply may result in serious injury.

Make sure all burners are in their correct locations and fully assembled before attempting to operate any burner.

Selecting a Flame Size

Watch the flame, not the knob, as you adjust heat. When rapid heating is desired, the flame size should match the size of the cookware you are using. Flames larger than the bottom of the cookware will not heat faster and may be hazardous.

These flames are too large for the pot

WARNING Fire Hazard

ŶUse care when cooking greasy foods. Spilled grease may result in fire.

ŶNever place any items on the griddle when it is not in use. Heat from surrounding burners can heat the griddle and may result in fire.

Ŷ Place and remove the griddle only when griddle is cool and all surface burners are turned OFF.

Using Your Nonstick Aluminum Griddle (on some models)

Your griddle provides an extra-large cooking surface for meats, pancakes, and other foods usually prepared in a skillet. Before first use, rinse with hot water and dry thoroughly.

Cooking Modes

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.

Bake

The bake mode is for baking and roasting. This mode uses heat only from the lower burner. When preparing baked goods such as cakes, cookies and pastries, always preheat the oven first. To use this mode, press the Bake pad, use the + and - pads to adjust the temperature, then press Start.

Broil Hi

The Broil Hi mode uses intense heat from the upper

Broiling Modes

Always broil with the oven door and drawer closed.

Broil Compartment (on some models)

For better searing use the rack position that places food closest to the broil heater. Move food down for

PRUH GRQHQHVV OHVV VHDULQJ 7DNH FDUH QRW WR WRXFK the inner door when placing and removing food in broil compartment.

Broil Lo

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

VXUIDFH 8VH %URLO /R IRU WKLFNHU FXWV RI PHDW DQG RU IRRGV that you would like cooked all the way through. To use this mode press the Broil pad twice and then press Start. It is not necessary to preheat when using this mode.

Convection Bake (on some models)

The Convection Bake mode is intended for baking on multiple racks at the same time. This mode uses air movement from the convection fan to enhance cooking evenness. Your oven is equipped with Auto

Recipe Conversion, so it is not necessary to adjust the temperature when using this mode. Always preheat when using this mode. Baking times may be slightly longer for multiple racks than what would be expected for a single rack. To use this mode press the Conv Bake pad, use the + and - pads to adjust the temperature, and then press Start. Always preheat when using this mode.

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,

To avoid possible burns, place the racks in the desired position before you turn the oven on.

Removing and Replacing Flat Racks

When placing and removing cookware, pull the rack out

To remove a rack, pull it toward you until it reaches the stop position, tilt up the front of the rack and pull it out.

To replace a rack, place the curved end of the rack onto the rack supports. Tilt up the front of the rack and push the rack in until it stops. Then lay the rack flat and push it in until it is all the way into the oven.

Racks may become difficult to slide, especially after a self-clean cycle. To improve sliding conditions, use a soft cloth or paper towel to rub vegetable oil on the left and

Aluminum Foil and Oven Liners

CAUTION Do not use any type of foil or oven liner to cover the oven bottom. These items can trap heat or melt, resulting in damage to the product and risk of shock, smoke or fire. Damage from improper use of these items is not covered by the product warranty.

Cookware

Cookware Guidelines

The material, finish, and size of cookware affect baking performance.

Dark, coated and dull pans absorb heat more readily

WKDQ OLJKW VKLQ\ SDQV 3DQV WKDW DEVRUE KHDW PRUH 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.

Keep cookware clean to promote even heating.

Stoneware heats slowly and retains heat well. It is recommended to preheat this type of cookware if possible. Additional cook time may be required.

Oven Air Vents

1HYHU EORFN WKH YHQWV DLU RSHQLQJV RI WKH UDQJH 7KH\ provide the air inlet and outlet that are necessary for the range to keep cool and operate properly with correct combustion.

Air openings are located at the rear of the cooktop, at the top and bottom of the oven door, and at the bottom

of the range.

take this precaution could result in tipping of the range and can result in death or serious burns to children or adults.

Control Lockout

If desired, the touch pads may be deactivated before cleaning.

See Lock Controls in the Oven Controls section in this manual.

Clean up splatters with a damp cloth.

You may also use a glass cleaner.

Remove heavier soil with warm, soapy water. Do not use abrasives of any kind.

Reactivate the touch pads after cleaning.
