IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION.
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.
WARNING
Ŷ Do not store or use flammable materials in
an oven or near the cooktop, including paper,
plastic, pot holders, linens, wall coverings,
curtains, drapes and gasoline or other flammable
vapors and liquids.
Ŷ
Never wear loose-fitting or hanging garments while
using the appliance. These garments may ignite if
they contact hot surfaces causing severe burns.
SAFETY INFORMATION
KEEP FLAMMABLE MATERIALS AWAY FROM THE RANGE
Failure to do so may result in fire or personal injury.
IN THE EVENT OF A FIRE, TAKE THE FOLLOWING
WARNING
STEPS TO PREVENT INJURY AND FIRE SPREADING
Ŷ 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.
Ŷ 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.
Ŷ Do not let cooking grease or other flammable
materials accumulate in or near the range.

Surface Units
How Induction Surface Cooking Works
Induction coils under the glass cooking surface produce
a magnetic field that generates heat in ferrous metals
that are in close proximity. The glass cooking surface is
not heated directly since it is not a ferrous metal, but the
glass may eventually become hot from the pan. Induction
surface coils are more efficient and will heat much faster
than conventional electric and gas cooking surface
cooking products.
How to Set
FIRE HAZARD: Never leave the range unattended with the cooktop on medium or high
WARNING
To turn on a single surface unit:
1. Touch the On/Off pad; then touch the + or - pad.
Touching the + pad will set the burner to its highest
setting; touching the - pad will set the burner to its
lowest setting.
2. Use the + or - pad to adjust to the desired power
setting.
settings. 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.
CAUTION:
Ŷ The induction cooking elements may appear to be cool
while turned ON and after they have been turned OFF.
The glass surface may be HOT from residual heat
transferred from the cookware and burns may occur.
Ŷ DO NOT TOUCH HOT COOKWARE or PANS directly
with hands. Always use mitts or pot holders to protect
hands from burns.
Ŷ DO NOT SLIDE cookware across the cooktop surface.
Doing so may permanently damage the appearance
of the ceramic cooktop.
To use the Power Boil or Melt features:
Touch the On/Off pad for
the corresponding burner.
For power boil, press +; for
melt, press -. The element
will automatically set to a
predetermined setting.

Cookware for Induction Cooktop
What Type of Pans Are Required?
You must use a ferrous pan when using the induction
coils on this range. The warming zone is not an induction
coil and will work with any type of cookware. You
can verify your pan is ferrous if a magnet sticks to it.
Quality cookware with heavy bottoms made of cast iron,
magnetic stainless steel and enameled steel work best.
For best results, use pans with flat bottoms. Woks that
do not have flat bottoms in close contact to the glass
surface will not work. Some pans are made especially for
induction cooking.
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.
Pan Size and Shape
The induction coils require a minimum pan size in order
for the element to turn on. In order for the induction coil
to correctly determine if the pan is large enough, it is
important that the pan be centered within the circular
graphics marked on the glass cooking surface. The
minimum pan size that will work for each induction coil
is shown on the left. Pans that are not ferrous or are too
small will not allow the induction coil to turn on, and the
power level display for that coil location will flash for 30
seconds and then turn off. If a pan is removed from the
induction coil for more than 30 seconds, the power will
be shut off. Square pans will work, although round pans
that match the induction coil sizes work best. Cookware
larger than the cooktop glass graphics will work. For
best results, match the pan size with the nearest-size
graphics on the glass cooking surface.
Use flat-bottomed pans.
Use a griddle.

USING THE RANGE: Cookware for Induction Cooktop
Cookware “Noise”
A low humming noise is normal when using induction
coils, especially on higher power settings. Heavy enamel
cast-iron pots produce less noise than lightweight steel
pans. The amount of food content in the pans can
also affect noise level. Pans that completely cover the
graphics on the glass will produce less noise. Water
Power Sharing
For power level H (high), if a surface unit is on for an
extended period of time or if multiple surface units are
on, there may be a slight reduction in power to the
surface unit. Water under pans may also cause the
controls to reduce the power delivered to the cookware.
49-80765
trapped under pans can boil, causing the cookware
to vibrate or slide on the glass surface. Water under
pans may also cause the controls to reduce the power
delivered to the cookware. To try to reduce the noise,
move pans slightly and/or change power levels.

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
USING THE RANGE: Oven Racks
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.
Upper Front
Rail
Fully Open Position
To Remove An Extension Rack:
1. Make sure the rack is pushed all the way into the
oven so that side paddles on the rack disengage from
the oven support.
2. Slide the rack toward you to the bump (stop position)
on the rack support.
3. Firmly grasp both sides of the rack frame and the
sliding rack, tilt the front end up and pull it out.
To Replace An Extension Rack:
1. Firmly grasp both sides of the rack frame and the
sliding rack.
2. Place the curved end of the rack (stop-locks) onto the
oven supports, tilt up the front of the rack and push it
in as far as it will go.
If extension racks are difficult to replace or remove, wipe
the oven rack supports with cooking oil. Do not wipe oil
on the rack slides.
To Lubricate the Paddle:
Shake lubricant and apply to the moving parts of the
paddle mechanisms as shown.

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.
Foil may be used to catch spills by placing a sheet on a lower rack, several inches below the food. Do not use more
foil than necessary and never entirely cover an oven rack with aluminum foil. Keep foil at least 1-1/2” from oven walls
to prevent poor heat circulation.
Cookware
Cookware Guidelines
The material, finish, and size of cookware affect baking
performance.
Dark, coated and dull pans absorb heat more readily
than light, shiny pans. Pans that absorb heat more
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 25º 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.

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.
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.
Convection Bake Multi Rack
The Convection Bake Multi Rack mode is intended
for baking on multiple racks at the same time. This
USING THE RANGE: Cooking Modes
mode uses heat primarily from the rear element, when
available, 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.
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.
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. Do not use warm to heat cold food other
than crisping crackers, chips or dry cereal. It is also
recommended that food not be kept warm for more
than 2 hours.
Broiling Modes
When broiling, the door should remain 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.
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
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
and/or 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.
