JAWARNING 1GENERALSAFETYINSTRUCTIONS

[] Use this appliance only for its intended purpose

as described in this Owner's Manual.

[] Be sure your appliance is properly installed and

grounded by a qualified installer in accordance with the provided installation instructions.

[] Do not attempt to repair or replace any part of

your range unless it is specifically recommended in this manual. All other servicing should be

transferred to a qualified technician.

[] Before performing any service, unplug the range

or disconnect the power supply at the household distribution panel by removing the fuse or

switching off the circuit breaker.

[] Do not leave children alone--children should

not be left alone or unattended in an area where an appliance is in use. They should never be

allowed to climb, sit or stand on any part of the appliance.

[] A,CAUTI©N. Donotstoreitemsof

interest to children above a range or on the backguard of a range--children climbing on the

range to reach items could be seriously injured.

[] Use only dry pot holders--moist or damp pot

holders on hot surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do not let pot holders touch hot surface

units or heating elements. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth in place of pot holders.

[] Never use your appliance for warming or heating

the room.

[] Do not touch the surface units, the heating

elements or the interior surface of the oven. These surfaces may be hot enough to burn

even though they are dark in color. During and after use, do not touch, or let clothing or other

flammable materials contact the surface units, areas nearby the surface units or any interior

area of the oven; allow sufficient time for cooling first. Other surfaces of the appliance may

become hot enough to cause burns. Potentially hot surfaces include the cooktop, areas facing the cooktop, oven vent opening, surfaces near the opening and crevices around the oven door.

[] Do not heat unopened food containers. Pressure

could build up and the container could burst, causing an injury.

[] Do not use any type of foil or liner to cover the

oven bottom or anywhere in the oven, except as described in this manual. Oven liners can trap heat or melt, resulting in damage to the product and risk of shock, smoke or fire.

[] Avoid scratching or impacting glass doors, cook

tops or control panels. Doing so may lead to glass breakage. Do not cook on a product with broken glass. Shock, fire or cuts may occur.

[] Cook meat and poultry thoroughly--meat to

at least an internal temperature of 160°F and poultry to at least an internal temperature of

180°F. Cooking to these temperatures usually

protects against foodborne illness.

,-=JAWARNING i IN THE EVENTOFA FIRE,TAKE THE FOLLOWING

STEPSTO PREVENTINJURYAND FIRESPREADING

[] Do not use water on grease fires. Never pick up

a flaming pan. Turn the controls off. Smother a flaming pan on a surface unit by covering the pan completely with a well-fitting lid, cookie sheet

or flat tray. Use a multi-purpose dry chemical or foam-type fire extinguisher.

[] If there is a fire in the oven during baking,

smother the fire by closing the oven door and turning the oven off or by using a multi-purpose dry chemical or foam-type fire extinguisher.

[]

If there is a fire in the oven during self-clean, turn

the oven off and wait for the fire to go out. Do not force the door open. Introduction of fresh air

at self-clean temperatures may lead to a burst of flame from the oven. Failure to follow this

instruction may result in severe burns.

[A WARNING i COOKTOP SAFETYINSTRUCTIONS

Never leave the surface units unattended at

[]

medium or high heat settings. Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers that may catch

on fire.

[] Never leave oil unattended while frying. If allowed

to heat beyond its smoking point, oil may ignite resulting in fire that may spread to surrounding

cabinets. Use a deep fat thermometer whenever possible to monitor oil temperature.

[] To avoid oil spillover and fire, use a minimum

amount of oil when shallow pan-frying and avoid cooking frozen foods with excessive

amounts of ice.

[]

Use proper pan size--select cookware having flat bottoms large enough to cover the surface heating element. The use of undersized cookware will expose a portion of the surface unit to direct contact and may result in ignition

of clothing. Proper relationship of cookware to surface unit will also improve efficiency.

[] Only certain types of glass, glass/ceramic,

earthenware or other glazed containers are suitable for cooktop service; others may break

because of the sudden change in temperature.

[] To minimize the possibility of burns, ignition of

flammable materials and spillage, the handle of a container should be turned toward the center of

the range without extending over nearby surface units.

[]

When preparing flaming foods under a hood, turn the fan on.

[]

If power is lost to an electric cooktop while a surface unit is ON, the surface unit will turn back

on as soon as power is restored. In the event of power loss, failure to turn all surface unit knobs to the OFF position may result in ignition of items on or near the cooktop, leading to serious injury

or death.

IA WARNING1RADIANT COOKTOP SAFETYINSTRUCTIONS

[] Use care when touching the cooktop° The glass

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

[] Do not cook on a broken cooktop. If glass

cooktop should break, cleaning solutions and spillovers may penetrate the broken cooktop and create a risk of electric shock. Contact a qualified technician immediately.

[] Avoid scratching the glass cooktop. The cooktop

can be scratched with items such as knives, sharp instruments, rings or other jewelry, and rivets on clothing.

[] Do not place or store items that can melt or catch

fire on the glass cooktop, even when it is not being used. If the cooktop is inadvertently turned on, they may ignite. Heat from the cooktop or

oven vent after it is turned off may cause them to ignite also.

[] Use CERAMA BRYTE ®ceramic Cooktop Cleaner

and CERAMA BRYTE ® Cleaning Pad to clean the cooktop. Wait until the cooktop cools and the indicator light goes out before cleaning. A

wet sponge or cloth on a hot surface can cause steam burns. Some cleaners can produce noxious fumes if applied to a hot surface. NOTE: Sugar spills are an exception. They should be scraped off while still hot using an

oven mitt and a scraper. See the Cleaning the glass cooktop section for detailed instructions.

[] Read and follow all instructions and warnings on

the cleaning cream label.

[A WARNING i OVENSAFETYINSTRUCTIONS

[] Stand away from the range when opening the []

oven door. Hot air or steam which escapes can cause burns to hands, face and/or eyes. []

[] Do not use the oven if a heating element

develops a glowing spot during use or shows other signs of damage. A glowing spot indicates

the heating element may fail and present a [] potential burn, fire, or shock hazard. Turn the oven off immediately and have the heating element replaced by a qualified service

technician.

[] Keep the oven vent unobstructed. [] Keep the oven free from grease buildup. Grease

in the oven may ignite.

[] Place oven racks in desired location while oven

is cool. If rack must be moved while oven is hot, do not let pot holder contact hot heating element

in oven.

When using cooking or roasting bags in the oven, follow the manufacturer's directions.

Pull the oven rack to the stop-lock position when loading and unloading food from the oven. This helps prevent burns from touching hot surfaces

of the door and oven walls. Do not leave items such as paper, cooking

utensils or food in the oven when not in use. Items stored in an oven can ignite.

[]

Never place cooking utensils, pizza or baking stones, or any type of foil or liner on the oven floor. These items can trap heat or melt, resulting in damage to the product and risk of shock,

smoke or fire.

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.

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,

For Models With a 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.

[] Water stains (mineral deposits) are removable using

the cleaning cream or full-strength white vinegar.

[] Use of window cleaner may leave an iridescent film on

the cooktop. The cleaning cream will remove this film.

[] Don't store heavy items above the cooktop. If they

drop onto the cooktop, they can cause damage.

[] Do not use the surface as a cutting board.

Use recipes and procedures from reputable sources. These are available from manufacturers such as Ball®

and Kerre and the Department of Agriculture Extension Service.

Flat-bottomed canners are recommended. Use of water

bath canners with rippled bottoms may extend the time required to bring the water to a boil.

Never cook directly on the glass. Always use cookware.

Always place the pan in the center of the surface unit you are cooking on.

Do not slide cookware across the cooktop beceuse it con scrotch the gloss--the gloss

is scratch-resistant, not scratch proof.

Cookware for Radiant Glass Cooktop

The following information will help you choose cookware which will give good performance on glass cooktops.

Stainless Steel:

recommended

Aluminum:

heavy weight recommended Good conductivity. Aluminum residues

sometimes appear as scratches on the cooktop but can be removed if cleaned

immediately. Because of its low melting point, thin weight aluminum should not be used.

Copper Bottom:

recommended Copper may leave residues which can

appear as scratches. The residues can be removed, as long as the cooktop is cleaned immediately. However, do not let these pots boil dry. Overheated metal can bond to glass cooktops. An overheated copper bottom pot will leave a residue that will permanently stain the cooktop if not removed immediately.

Porcelain Enamel on Cast Iron:

recommended if bottom of pan is coated

Porcelain Enamel on Steel:

not recommended Heating empty pans can cause

permanent damage to cooktop glass.

The enamel can melt and bond to the

ceramic cooktop.

Glass-ceramic:

not recommended Poor performance. Will scratch the

surface.

Stoneware:

not recommended Poor performance. May scratch the

surface.

Cast Iron:

not recommended--unless designed specifically for glass cooktops

Poor conductivity and slow to absorb heat. Will scratch the cooktop surface.

Check pans for flat bottoms by using a straight edge.

i,,lJ

k.-

(D Z

Pans with rounded, curved, ridged or warped bottoms are not recommended.

NOTE" Follow all cookware manufacturer's recommendations when using any type of cookware on the ceramic cooktop.

[] Place only dry pans on the surface elements. Do not

place lids on the surface elements, particularly wet lids. Wet pans and lids may stick to the surface when

cool.

[] Do not use woks that have support rings. This type of

wok will not heat on glass surface elements.

[] We recommend that you use only a flat-bottomed

wok. They are available at your local retail store. The

bottom of the wok should have the same diameter as

the surface element to ensure proper contact.

[] Some special cooking procedures require specific

cookware such as pressure cookers or deep-fat fryers. All cookware must have flat bottoms and be

the correct size.

Do not place wet pans on the glass cooktop.

Do not use woks with support rings on the

glass cooktop.

Use fiat-bottomed woks on the glass cooktop.

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.

Your Oven may have extension racks and/or traditional flat racks.

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

Extension Racks

Always pull the rack out by its upper front rail to its fully open position, when placing or removing cookware.

If extension racks are difficult to extend, lubricate the racks with the graphite lubricant provided with your oven. Remove the rack from the oven, remove debris in the side tracks with a paper towel, shake the graphite lubricant and place 4 small drops on the two bottom tracks of the left and right sides. Open and close the

rack several times to distribute the lubricant. To order additional graphite lubricant, read the

Assistance and Accessories section at the beginning of the manual.

The number of rack positions may vary by model.

obtained with this type of cookware consider reducing

oven temperature by 25° F next time.

Cooking Modes

(D >

Your new oven has a variety of cooking modes to help you get the best results. These modes are described below.

<i:

Refer to the Cooking Guide section for recommendations for specific foods. Remember, your new oven may perform differently than the oven it is replacing.

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.

Bake

The 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.

ill

3::

Convection Bake Multi Rack

The Convection Bake Multi Rack mode is intended for baking on multiple racks at the same time. This

mode uses heat primarily from the rear element but also heat from the upper and lower elements, along

with 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.

18 49 80690 4

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.

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.

Broiling Modes

Always broil with the door open. Monitor food closely while broiling. Use caution when broiling on upper rack

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 the upper most rack position 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.

Cooking Modes (Cont.)

Broil Hi

The Broil Hi mode uses intense heat from the upper element to sear foods. Use Broil Hi for thinner cuts of

meat and/or foods you prefer less done on the interior. 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 surface browning. Use Broil Lo for thicker cuts of meat andlor foods 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.

Warm

Warm mode is designed to keep hot food hot, it is not intended to heat cold food. To use this mode, press the Warm pad then press Start. Preheating is not required. Cover foods that need to remain moist and do not cover foods that should be crisp. Warm can be used for crisping crackers, chips or dry cereal. It is recommended, for food quality, that food not be kept

warm for more than 2 hours.

Probe (on some models)

Internal food temperature is frequently used as an indicator of doneness, especially for roasts and poultry. The Probe mode monitors the internal food temperature

and turns the oven off when the internal food temperature reaches the programmed temperature.

Minimum temperatures for food safety can be found at www.lsltDoneYet.gov. The temperature probe can only be used with Bake, Convection Bake, and Convection

Roast modes. To use the probe with preheating:

1. Press the desired cook mode (Bake, Convection Bake, or Convection Roast) pad and enter the

desired cooking temperature.

2. Insert the probe into the food (see Proper Probe Placement Guidelines in this section).

3. Once the oven is preheated, place the food in the

oven and connect the probe to the probe outlet,

making sure it is fully inserted. Use caution, the oven

walls and probe outlet are hot.

4. Program the probe temperature by pressing the Probe pad and entering the desired food temperature.

The maximum internal food temperature that you can set is 200° F.

To use the probe without preheating: Z

1. Insert the probe into the food (see Proper Probe Placement Guidelines in this section).

2. Place the food in the oven and connect the probe into ""i the probe outlet in the oven.

rri

3. Program the desired probe and cooking mode settings

by pressing the Probe pad and entering the desired

food temperature, then pressing the cook mode pad :_

(Bake, Convection Bake, or Convection Roast) and Z entering the desired cooking temperature.

Proper Probe Placement Guidelines

After preparing the meat and placing it on the cooking O pan follow these guidelines for proper probe placement. O [] Insert the probe completely into the meat, up to the O

handle, such that the point of the probe will rest in the 7_" center of the thickest part of the meat. ::::3

[] The probe should not touch bone, fat or gristle. (L:) [] For whole poultry insert the probe into the thickest

part of the breast. O

[] For boneless roasts, insert the probe into the center O

of the roast. (]::)

[] For bone-in ham or lamb, insert the probe into the (/)

center of the lowest large muscle or joint.

[] For casseroles or dishes such as meatloaf, insert the

probe into the center of the dish.

[] For fish, insert the probe from just above the gill into

the meatiest area, parallel to the backbone.

Check the temperature at other locations in the food with a food thermometer once the probe temperature is reached to ensure that all portions of the food have reached desired temperatures.

Probe Care Guidelines

[] Use of probes other than the one provided with this

product may result in damage to the probe.

[] Use the handles of the probe and plug when inserting

and removing them from the meat and outlet

[] To avoid damaging your probe, do not use tongs to

pull on the cable when removing it.

[] To avoid breaking the probe, make sure food is

completely defrosted before inserting the probe.

[] To prevent possible burns, do not unplug the probe

from the outlet until the oven has cooled.

[] Never leave the probe inside the oven during a self or

steam clean cycle.

[] Do not store the probe in the oven.
