•	CAUTION	Do not store items of 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 food thoroughly to help protect against foodborne illness. Minimum safe food temperature recommendations can be found at IsItDoneYet.gov and fsis.usda.gov. Use a food thermometer to take food temperatures and check several locations.

WARNING KEEP FLAMMABLE MATERIALS AWAY FROM THE OVEN

SAFETY INFORMATION

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING THE APPLIANCE

WARNING IN THE EVENT OF A FIRE, TAKE THE FOLLOWING STEPS TO PREVENT INJURY AND FIRE SPREADING

•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 foamtype 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.

WARNING COOKTOP SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

•Never leave the surface units unattended with the cooktop ON. Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers that may catch on fire.

•Always be present at the range when cooking with oil or grease. Surface cooking is an "attended" activity.

•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.

WARNING RADIANT COOKTOP SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

•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 ceramic cooktop cleaner and a non-scratch 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.

USING THE RANGE

SURFACE UNITS

WARNING FIRE HAZARD: Never leave the range unattended with the cooktop ON above a Lo setting. 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 appearance may vary from your model.

How to Set

Push the knob in and turn in either direction to the setting you want.

A surface ON indicator light will glow when any surface unit is on.

For glass cooktop surfaces:

A HOT COOKTOP indicator light will:

•come on when the unit is hot to the touch.

•stay on even after the unit is turned off.

•stay on until the unit is cooled to approximately 150°F.

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.

At both OFF and HI the control clicks into position. You may hear slight clicking sounds during cooking, indicating the control is maintaining your desired setting.

Be sure you turn the control knob to OFF when you finish cooking.

Temperature Limiter on Radiant Glass Cooktops

Every radiant surface unit has a temperature limiter.

The temperature limiter protects the glass cooktop from getting too hot.

The temperature limiter may cycle the surface units off for a time if:

•the pan boils dry.

•the pan bottom is not flat.

•the pan is off-center.

•there is no pan on the unit.

Never cook directly on the glass.	Always place the pan in the
Always use cookware.	center of the surface unit you are
	cooking on.

Do not slide cookware across the cooktop because it can scratch the glass—the glass is scratch-resistant, not scratch proof.

USING THE RANGE

SURFACE UNITS (Cont.)

Cookware for Radiant Glass Cooktops

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

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

•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.

Recommended

Stainless Steel

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

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.

Enamel (painted) on Cast Iron

Recommended if bottom of pan is coated.

Avoid/Not Recommended

Enamel (painted) on Steel

Heating empty pans can cause permanent damage to cooktop glass. The enamel can melt and bond to the ceramic cooktop.

Glass-ceramic

Poor performance. Will scratch the surface.

Stoneware

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.

More about Cookware

•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 smooth surface when cool.

•Do not use woks that have support rings. This type of wok will not heat on the cooktop.

Check pans for flat bottoms by using a straight edge. You should not be able to pass a US nickel coin under the straight edge.

Do not place wet pans on the glass cooktop.

Do not use woks with support rings on the glass cooktop.

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

Use flat-bottomed woks on the glass cooktop.

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.

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

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 the 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.

•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 PROBE (SmartHQ app only)

WARNING Consuming undercooked food can result in foodborne illness. Use probe according to the following instructions to ensure all portions of the food reach minimum safe cooking temperatures. Recommendations for minimum safe food temperatures can be found at

foodsafety.gov or IsItDoneYet.gov.

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.

Always check the temperature at multiple locations in the food with a food thermometer after cooking to ensure that all portions of the food have reached the minimum safe internal temperature for that food.

Proper Probe Placement

After preparing the meat and placing it on the cooking pan follow these instructions for proper probe placement.

•Insert the probe into the food, so that the tip of the probe will rest in the center of the thickest part of the food.

For best performance the probe should be fully inserted into the food. If the probe is not located properly, it may not accurately measure the temperature of the coolest portion of the food. Some foods, particularly small items, are not well suited for cooking with the probe due to their shape or size.

•The probe should not touch bone, fat or gristle.

•For whole poultry insert the probe into the thickest part of the breast.

•For boneless roasts, insert the probe into the center 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.

Probe Usage

The temperature probe can only be used with Bake, Convection Bake, and Convection Roast through the SmartHQ app.

To use the probe with preheating:

1.Select the desired cook mode (Bake, Convection Bake, or Convection Roast) through the app, and select the desired cooking temperature.

2.Insert the probe into the food (see Proper Probe Placement).

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.When the probe is connected, the app will prompt you to enter the desired food temperature. The maximum internal food temperature that you can set is 200° F.

To use the probe without preheating:

1.Insert the probe into the food (see Proper Probe Placement).

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

3.Through the app, select the desired cook mode (Bake,

Convection Bake, or Convection Roast), cooking temperature, and desired food temperature.

Probe Care Guidelines

•Use of probes other than the one provided with this product may result in damage to the probe outlet.

•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.

OVEN RACKS

Rack Positions

Recommended rack positions for various types of foods are provided in the Cooking Guide. Adjusting the 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 sufficient space between pans to allow air to flow. This may improve cooking evenness.

Removing and Replacing Flat Racks

When placing and removing cookware, pull the rack out to the bump (stop position) on the rack support.

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. To improve sliding conditions, use a soft cloth or paper towel

to rub vegetable oil

on the left and right edges of the racks

and/or rack supports.

NOTE: Remove unused racks when using the oven for faster preheat, improved efficiency, and optimal cooking performance.

CARE AND CLEANING

OVEN

Be sure all controls are off and all surfaces are cool before cleaning any part of the oven.

Oven Interior

The interior of your new oven can be cleaned manually or by using the Steam Clean feature.

Spillage of marinades, fruit juices, tomato sauces and basting liquids containing acids may cause discoloration and should be wiped up as soon as hot surfaces cool, then clean and rinse.

Manual Cleaning

Do not use oven cleaners, strong liquid cleansers, steel wool, or scouring pads on the interior of the oven. For soils on the oven bottom and other enameled surfaces, use a gentle abrasive containing oxalic acid, such as Bar Keepers Friend®, with a nonscratch sponge. Take care not to apply any abrasive cleaners or sponges to the door glass, as it will scratch the reflective coating. The oven interior and door glass may be cleaned using a soft cloth with a mild soap and water, or vinegar and water solution. After cleaning, rinse with clean water and dry with a soft cloth.

Steam Clean

The Steam Clean feature is for cleaning light soil from your oven. To use the Steam Clean feature:

1.Start with the oven at room temperature.

2.Wipe excess grease and soils from the oven.

3.Pour 1 cup of water onto the bottom of the oven.

4.Close the door.

5.Turn the Oven Mode selector knob to Steam Clean.

Do not open the door during the Steam Cleaning cycle. At the end of the Steam Clean cycle, soak up the remaining water, and wipe the moisture-softened soil from the oven walls and door.

Oven Exterior

Do not use oven cleaners, abrasive cleansers, strong liquid cleansers, steel wool, plastic scouring pads or cleaning powders on the interior or exterior of the oven. Clean with a mild soap and water or a 50/50 solution of vinegar and water. Rinse with clean water and dry with a soft cloth. When cleaning surfaces, make sure that they are at room temperature and not in direct sunlight.

Spillage of marinades, fruit juices, tomato sauces and basting liquids containing acids may cause discoloration and should be wiped up as soon as hot surfaces cool, then clean and rinse.

Oven Racks

All oven racks may be cleaned by hand with an abrasive cleaner or steel wool.

After cleaning the racks, use a soft cloth or paper towel to rub a small amount of vegetable oil on the left and right edges of the rack. This will ensure the racks are easy to slide in and out of the oven.

COOKTOP

Control Panel and Knobs

Wipe the control panel after each use of the oven with a damp cloth. For cleaning, use mild soap and water or a 50/50 solution of vinegar and water. Rinse with clean water. Polish dry with a soft cloth.

Do not use abrasive cleansers, strong liquid cleansers, plastic scouring pads or oven cleaners on the control panel—they will damage the finish.

Stainless Steel Surfaces (on some models)

Do not use a steel wool pad; it will scratch the surface.

To clean the stainless steel surface, use warm sudsy water or a stainless steel cleaner or polish. Always wipe the surface in the direction of the grain. Follow the cleaner instructions for cleaning the stainless steel surface.

Cleaners with oxalic acid such as Bar Keepers Friend Soft Cleanser™ will remove surface rust, tarnish and small blemishes. Use only a liquid cleanser free of grit and rub in the direction of the brush lines with a damp, soft sponge.

To inquire about purchasing cleaning products including stainless steel appliance cleaner or polish, see the Accessories and Consumer Support sections at the end of this manual.

For easier cleaning, the control knobs may be removed by pulling them directly outwards once the knobs are in the OFF position. Do not pull knobs up or down or hang objects on them. This can damage the gas valve shaft. When removing the tri-ring (on some models) and the dual-oval (on some models) burner knobs, remember their location. While all other knobs are interchangeable, these knobs must be placed in the same location after cleaning. See the Surface Burner section for a detailed view of these knobs. The knobs can be washed by hand with soap and water or in a dishwasher.

To replace knobs after

cleaning, align the hole on the knob backside

with the gas valve shaft and push inward until the knob is securely fastened. All knobs are

interchangeable.

Surface burner knob

Cooktop Surface

Do not use oven cleaners, abrasive cleansers, strong liquid cleansers, steel wool, plastic scouring pads, or cleaning powders on the cooktop surface. Clean with a mild soap and water or a 50/50 solution of vinegar and water. Rinse with clean water and dry with a soft cloth. When cleaning surfaces, make sure that they are at room temperature and not in direct sunlight.

Spillage of marinades, fruit juices, tomato sauces and basting liquids containing acids may cause discoloration and should be wiped up as soon as hot surfaces cool, then clean and rinse.

If your model has a stainless steel cooktop surface, refer to the Stainless Steel Surface cleaning instructions featured in the Control Panel and Knobs section.
