A
A
To properly cure the solid elements, heat each element at the
highest setting, without a pan on the element.
There will be some non-toxic smoke and odor and the rings
around the elements will change to a gold color. All this is
normal. Heat the elements for 3 to 5 minutes — until the
smoking stops.
Solid disk elements are made from a flat heavy casting ofthe
same type of material as cast ironskillets. Cast iron reaches
temperature gradually and evenly and holds the heat very
weli.
Cast iron must be kept dry to prevent rust. It is normal for
cast iron to lose its luster as it ages. See the Cleaning Tips
inthis manual for information on cleaning and restoring ap-
pearance of solid disk elements.
the first time, you must cure them to
harden the protective coating for long
life. If the elements are not cured properly, the coating can stick to your pan
and remove some of the finish on the
element. See instructions below.
Do not use decorative element covers on solid disk elements. These covers can trap moisture and promote rusting.
The red dot inthe center of some of the elements isforfactoty
identification only. It can be removed by scouring.
Some cooking processes will differ from those you may be
used to with coil elements. Cooking times for some foods
may change because solid disk elements will take longer to
heat up and cool down. Heat-up and cool-down times will
depend on initial temperature setting, quaiity of utensil and
amount of food being cooked.
Cooking performance Is directly related to the use of
proper pans.
In order to obtain top performance from your solid disk
elements your cookware must be
ofa heavy gauge material. Use atight-fitting lidwhenever
possible. An out-of-shape pan without a
cook with the same speed and evenness as a pan with a flat
bottom and

10
EMTC05-4
Many pans have a slight depression in the center of the pan
bottom. Some cookware has circular ridges in the pan
bottom. Many older pans have become warped from overheating in the past. None of these pans will give top
performance on any type of electric cooking element be-
cause they do not make contact with the element across the
,ntire pan bottom.
COOKWARE TIPS
●
Pans must have flat bottoms and should have straight
sides and lightweight handles that do not tilt the pans.
●
Pans must cover the entire element to absorb the full heat
output. They should be the same size or slightly larger
(not more than 1” overhang) than the element.
9
Use tight fitting lids to shorten cooking time and allow food
to cook in a minimum amount of liquid.
●
Be sure that specialty pans such as woks, lobster pots,
pressure cookers, french fryers, griddles etc. meet the
same standards as other pans: flat bottom, balanced,
correct size and covered, if applicable. Use only flat
bottomed woks on solid disk elements.
●
Use canners that do not extend more than 1 inch beyond
the solid disk element. Be sure the canner has a flat
bottom. When canners do not meet these standards the
use of the high heat setting may cause the heat to become
excessive and may result in damage to the cooktop.
●
Place pans on the elements before controls are turned on
to conserve energy.
CAUTION
A
cooktop
and the heat retention characteristics of the cast iron
used for the elements, will cause the cooktop to get
hotter than you might be used to with open coil
elements and stay hot Iongerafter the elements have
been turned off.
Please use care when working around your cooktop
when any surface elements are on or when the cooktop
has not had time to cool after surface element use.

REGULAR ELEMENT COOKTOP CONTROL
(shown here with settings numbered-to be used with chart on next page)
The elements have a built-in temperature protection device
which protects the element and your pan from excessive
(damaging) heat. If the element is left turned on without a
pan, or if a pan boils dry, the excess heat buildup will be
detected and power will be reduced to the element. If your
pans do not have a flat bottom and there is space between
the element and some parts of the pan bottom, this limiter
may detect excessive temperatures and automatically turn
the element down.
EMTC2&l
THE AUTOMATIC ELEMENT
The automatic cooktop element (left rear) has a sensor in its
center. The sensor detects the temperature of the pan
bottom and compares itwith yourselected control setting. The
automatic element then supplies heat as needed. The auto-
matic element always begins with full power, no matter
where the cooktop control is set. When the temperature of
your selected setting has been reached, the element cycles
on and off to maintain that temperature, similar to your oven.
In order for the setlsorto work efficiently, you should keep it
clean and free moving.
When the correct setting has been selected, the pan does
not haveto be watched. The automatic element will not burn
food when the correct setting is selected. Food may dry out
The following chart is merely a guide to the suitable control
settings. Consider raising the setting for larger quantities,
uneven pan bottoms or uncovered pans, and for pan mate-
rialstilat are slow to conduct heat (such as cast iron). Lower
the setting forsmaller quantities and pan materials that heat
quickly (such as aluminum).
The regular element supplies heat at a constant power at
each setting. It heats whether the food needs more heat or
not. With the regular element the power is always on, unless
if left too long, but the sensor will
overheat beyond the selected setting.
Using the proper pan and lid, food will cook whether or nc
steam is visible. Cooking time does not depend on visitjt
steam. The automatic element cycles on and off as heat;-
needed. It is normal not to see activity, such as bubbling a,
steaming, during the time that the heat has cycled off.
If you feel that a heat setting should be changed, change it
gradually. Allow time for the element to adjust to the new
setting. Changing settings will be more satisfactory when
the increased setting is within one or two markings on the
control.
the control is turned off. After you start at a higher setting to
bring the food up to cooking temperature, turn the control
down to the lowest setting that will keep the food cooking.
The automatic element will always start with full power
(regardless of your control setting) and will continue to cycle
on and off, holding the temperature at the control setting you
have selected. It adds only the amount of heat necessary to
maintain the setting.
not let the food or the pan

BROILING TIPS
●
Your oven door should be open to the broil stop
position while broiling. If the door is closed, the
food will roast and not broil.
●
Use only the broiler pan and grid that came with your
range for broiling. They are designed for proper
drainage of fat and liquids and help prevent spatter,
smoke or fire.
8
Do not preheat when broiling. For even broiling on
both sides, start the food on a cold pan.
.
When broiling frozen meat, use one rack position lower
than recommended and
gested bt-oiling time.
●
Trim the outer layer of fat from steaks and chops. Slit
the fa:;~ ~@es to keep the meat from curiing.
●
For maximum juiciness, salt the first side just before
turning the meat. Salt the second side just before
serving.
●
Brush chicken and fish with butter several times as
they broil When broiling fish, grease the grid to keep it
from sticking and broil with skin side down. It is not
necessary to turn fish.
9
Never leave a soiled broiler pan in the range.
Grease in the pan may smoke or burn the next time the
oven is use.
●
Be sure you know the correct procedure for putting
out a grease fire. See the section on safety.

POSITIONING BROILER PAN
Broiling is cooking by direct heat from the broil element.
Tender cuts of meat or marinated meat should be selected
for broiling. For best results steaks should beat least 3/4”
thick.
After placing food on the broiler pan, put the pan on an oven
rack in the proper position. The recommended rack position and cooking time can be found in the chart below
The closer the food is to the broil element, the faster the
meat browns on the outside, yet stays red to pink in the
center. Moving the meat farther away from the element lets
the meat cook to the center while browning outside. Side
one should be cooked 1 -2 minutes longe~ than side two.

or any other objects in the oven during a self-clean cycle.
Ifoven racks are left in the range during a clean cycle, they
will darken, Ioso their luster and become hard to slide. If
you choose to leave the racks in the oven, you can polish
the edges of the racks with steel wool and apply a small
amount of vegetable oil to the rack edges after the selfclean cycle. This will make the racks easier to slide.
Soil on the oven front frame, under the front edge of the
ccmktop, the door liner outside the door seal and the front
edge of the oven cavity (about 1” into the oven) will not be
cleaned during a clean cycle (see illustration below).
Clean these areas by hand before starting a clean cycle.
Use hot water with a soap-filled steel wool pad, then rinse
well.

ADJUSTING OVEN TEMPERATURE
The temperature in your new range has been set correctly at
the factory, so be sure to follow the recipe temperatures and
times thefirst few times you bake in your new oven.
If you think the oven should be hotter or cooler, you can
adjust it yourself. To decide how much to change the temperature, set the oven temperature 25’F higher or lower than
the temperature in your recipe, then bake. The results of this
“test” should give you an idea of how much the temperature
should be changed.
To adjust temperature:
1. Push the BAKE button.
2. Select the temperature between 500°F and 550”F with
the SET knob.
Q See the instructions, under Cleaning Tips, for
cleaning chrome cooktops with oven
cleaner. This procedure requires extreme
caution. Read instructions carefully.
3.
Quickly (within two seconds, before the BAKE function
energizes) push and hold the BAKE button.
The display will change to the amount of degrees difference between the original factory temperature setting and
the current temperature setting. If the oven temperature
has the original factory setting, the display will read 00.
4.
The temperature can be adjusted Up to 35°F hotter or
35°F cooler (in 5°F steps), by turning the SET knob. A
minus sign (-) before the number means that the oven will
be cooler by displayed amount of degrees.
