The Anti-Tip Bracket
The range will not tip during normal use. However, the range can tip if you apply too much force or weight to the open door without the anti-tip bracket fastened down properly.
WARNING
Tip Over Hazard A child or adult can tip the range and be killed.
Install anti-tip bracket to floor or wall per installation instructions.
Slide range back so rear range foot is engaged in the slot of the anti-tip bracket. Re-engage anti-tip bracket if range is moved.
Do not operate range without anti-tip bracket installed and engaged.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death or serious burns to children and adults.
Anti-Tip
Bracket
Range Foot
To verify the anti-tip bracket is installed and engaged:
•Slide range forward.
•Look for the anti-tip bracket securely attached to floor or wall.
•Slide range back so rear range foot is under anti-tip bracket.
•See installation instructions for details.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, injury to persons, or damage when using the range, follow basic precautions, including the following:
■ WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF TIPPING OF THE RANGE, THE RANGE MUST BE SECURED BY PROPERLY INSTALLED ANTI-TIP DEVICES. TO CHECK IF THE DEVICES ARE INSTALLED PROPERLY, SLIDE RANGE FORWARD, LOOK FOR ANTI-TIP BRACKET SECURELY ATTACHED TO FLOOR OR WALL, AND SLIDE RANGE BACK SO REAR RANGE FOOT IS UNDER ANTI-TIP BRACKET.
■ WARNING: NEVER use this appliance as a space heater to heat or warm the room. Doing so may result in carbon monoxide poisoning and overheating of the oven.
■ WARNING: NEVER cover any slots, holes or passages in the oven bottom or cover an entire rack with materials such as aluminum foil. Doing so blocks air flow through the oven and may cause carbon monoxide poisoning. Aluminum foil linings may also trap heat, causing a fire hazard.
■ CAUTION: Do not store items of interest to children in cabinets above a range or on the backguard of a range – children climbing on the range to reach items could be seriously injured.
■Proper Installation – The range, when installed, must be electrically grounded in accordance with local codes or, in the absence of local codes, with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70. In Canada, the range must be electrically grounded in accordance with Canadian Electrical Code. Be sure the range is properly installed and grounded by a qualified technician.
■This range is equipped with a three-prong grounding plug for your protection against shock hazard and should be plugged directly into a properly grounded receptacle. Do not cut or remove the grounding prong from this plug.
■Disconnect power before servicing.
■Injuries may result from the misuse of appliance doors or drawers such as stepping, leaning, or sitting on the doors or drawers.
■Maintenance – Keep range area clear and free from combustible materials, gasoline, and other flammable vapors and liquids.
■Storage in or on the Range – Flammable materials should not be stored in an oven or near surface units.
■Top burner flame size should be adjusted so it does not extend beyond the edge of the cooking utensil.
For self-cleaning ranges –
■Before Self-Cleaning the Oven – Remove broiler pan and other utensils. Wipe off all excessive spillage before initiating the cleaning cycle.

KEY USAGETIPS
Alternative Clean Self-Cleaning
Technology
Alternative Clean Self-Cleaning Technology is a first-of-its-kind cleaning solution designed to minimize the time, temperature, and odors that ordinarily come with traditional self-cleaning methods. With Alternative Clean Self-Cleaning Technology, an exclusive coating on the interior of the oven is activated with heat and water to release baked-on soil. To use Alternative Clean Self-Cleaning Technology, simply wipe out loose debris, pour water into the oven bottom, and run the Alternative Clean SelfCleaning cycle. When the cycle finishes in under 1 hour at a lower temperature than in traditional self-cleaning methods, just wipe out the remaining water and loose debris. See the “Clean Cycle” section for more detailed instructions.
Surface Temperatures
When the range is in use, all range surfaces may become hot, such as the knobs and oven door.
Storage Drawer
When the oven is in use, the drawer may become hot. Do not store plastics, cloth, or other items that could melt or burn in the drawer.
Oven Vent
The oven vent releases hot air and moisture from the oven, and should not be blocked or covered. Do not set plastics, paper, or other items that could melt or burn near the oven vent.
Preheating
When beginning a Bake, Convect Bake, or Convect Roast cycle, the oven will begin preheating after Start is pressed. The oven will take approximately 12 to 15 minutes to reach 350°F (177°C) with all of the oven racks provided with your oven inside the oven cavity. Higher temperatures will take longer to preheat. The preheat cycle rapidly increases the oven temperature. The actual oven temperature will go above your set temperature to
offset the heat lost when your oven door is opened to insert food. This ensures that when you place your food in the oven, the oven will begin at the proper temperature. Insert your food when the preheat tone sounds. Do not open the door during preheat before the tone sounds.
Surface Burners
The burner bases and caps must be properly positioned before cooking. Your range comes with 3 sizes of burners and caps. Each round burner base is marked with a letter indicating
the burner size. Align the burner bases as shown in the following illustration:
A |
D |
|

COOKTOP
WARNING
Fire Hazard
Do not let the burner flame extend beyond the edge of the pan.
Turn off all controls when not cooking.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death or fire.
Electric igniters automatically light the surface burners when control knobs are turned to LIGHT.
Before setting a control knob, place filled cookware on the grate. Do not operate a burner using empty cookware or without cookware on the grate.
To Set:
1.Push in and turn knob counterclockwise to LIGHT.
All surface burners will click. Only the burner with the control knob turned to LIGHT will produce a flame.
2.Turn knob to anywhere between HI and LO.
REMEMBER: When range is in use, the entire cooktop area may become hot.
Power Failure
In case of prolonged power failure, the surface burners can be lit manually. Hold a lit match near a burner, and then turn knob counterclockwise to LIGHT. After burner lights, turn knob to setting.
Surface Burners
IMPORTANT: Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air around the burner grate edges.
Burner Cap: Always keep the burner cap in place when using a surface burner. A clean burner cap will help avoid poor ignition
and uneven flames. Always clean the burner cap after a spillover, and routinely remove and clean the caps according to the “General Cleaning” section.
NOTE: Each round burner base is marked with a letter indicating the burner size.
Alignment: Be sure to align the gas tube opening in the burner base with the orifice holder on the cooktop and the igniter electrode with the notch in the burner base.

Cookware
IMPORTANT: Do not leave empty cookware on a hot surface cooking area, element, or surface burner.
Ideal cookware should have a flat bottom, straight sides, and a well-fitting lid, and the material should be of medium-to-heavy thickness.
Rough finishes may scratch the cooktop or coils. Aluminum and copper may be used as a core or base in cookware. However, when used as a base, they can leave permanent marks on the surfaces.
Cookware material is a factor in how quickly and evenly heat is transferred which affects cooking results. A nonstick finish has the same characteristics as its base material. For example, aluminum cookware with a nonstick finish will take on the properties of aluminum.
Cookware with nonstick surfaces should not be used under the broiler.
Check for flatness by placing the straight edge of a ruler across the bottom of the cookware. While you rotate the ruler, no space or light should be visible between it and the cookware.

Use flat-bottomed cookware for best cooking results and energy efficiency. The cookware should be about the same size as the cooking area outlined on the cooktop or the coil element. Cookware should not extend more than 1/2" (1.3 cm) beyond the surface cooking area or element.
Home Canning
When canning for long periods, alternate the use of surface burners between batches. This allows time for the most recently used areas to cool.
■■ Center the canner on the grate above the burner.
■■ Do not place canner on 2 surface burners at the same time.
■■ For more information, contact your local agricultural extension office or refer to published home canning guides. Companies that manufacture home canning products can also offer assistance.

OVEN
Odors and smoke are normal when the oven is used the first few times or when it is heavily soiled.
IMPORTANT: The health of some birds is extremely sensitive to the fumes given off by the oven. Exposure to the fumes may result in death to certain birds. Always move birds to another closed and well-ventilated room.
Aluminum Foil
IMPORTANT: To avoid permanent damage to the oven bottom finish, do not line the oven bottom with any type of foil or liner.
For best cooking results, do not cover entire oven rack with foil because air must be able to move freely.
Positioning Racks and Bakeware
IMPORTANT: To avoid permanent damage to the porcelain finish, do not place food or bakeware directly on the oven door or bottom.
Bakeware
To cook food evenly, hot air must be able to circulate. Allow 2" (5 cm) of space around bakeware and oven walls. Make sure that no bakeware piece is directly over another.
Racks
■■ Position racks before turning on the oven.
■■ Do not position racks with bakeware on them.
■■ Make sure racks are level.
To position a rack, pull it out to the stop position, raise the front edge, and then lift out. Use the following illustration and charts as a guide.

Oven Vent
A
A. Oven vent
The oven vent releases hot air and moisture from the oven
and should not be blocked or covered. Blocking or covering the oven vent will cause poor air circulation, affecting cooking and cleaning results. Do not set plastics, paper, or other items that could melt or burn near the oven vent.
Sabbath Mode
The Sabbath mode sets the oven to remain on in a bake setting until turned off.
When the Sabbath mode is set, only the Bake cycle will operate. All other cooking and cleaning cycles are disabled. No tones will sound and the displays will not indicate temperature changes.
When the oven door is opened or closed, the oven light will not turn on or off, and the heating elements will not turn on or off immediately.
To Enable Sabbath Mode Capability (One Time Only):
1.Press SETTINGS/CLOCK until “SABBATH” is displayed. “OFF. Press (1) for On” will scroll in the display.
2.Press the “1” keypad. “ON. Press (1) for Off” will scroll in the display. Sabbath mode can be activated for baking.
3.Press START or CANCEL/OFF to exit and display the time of day.
NOTE: To disable the Sabbath mode, repeat steps 1 through 3 to change the status from “SABBATH ON” to “SABBATH OFF.”
To Activate Sabbath Mode:
1.Press BAKE.
2.Press the number keypads to set a temperature other than 350°F (177°C).
3.Press START.

Baking and Roasting
Preheating
When beginning a Bake, Convect Bake, or Convect Roast cycle, the oven will begin preheating after Start is pressed. The oven will take approximately 12 to 15 minutes to reach 350°F (177°C) with all of the oven racks provided with your oven inside the oven cavity. Higher temperatures will take longer to preheat. The preheat cycle rapidly increases the oven temperature. The actual oven temperature will go above your set temperature to offset the heat lost when your oven door is opened to insert food. This ensures that when you place your food in the oven, the oven will begin at the proper temperature. Insert your food when the
preheat tone sounds. Do not open the door during preheat before the tone sounds.
Rapid Preheat
Rapid Preheat can be used to shorten the preheating time. Only 1 standard flat oven rack should be in the oven during Rapid Preheat. Extra racks should be removed prior to starting Rapid Preheat. Press RAPID PREHEAT, and follow the oven control prompts, or, if preheating has already started, simply press RAPID PREHEAT. The preheating cycle should be completed before placing food in the oven. When the Rapid Preheat cycle is complete, the oven starts a normal Bake cycle.
IMPORTANT: Rapid Preheat should be used only for one-rack baking.
Oven Temperature
While in use, the oven elements will cycle on and off as needed to maintain a consistent temperature, but they may run slightly hot or cool at any point in time due to this cycling. Opening the oven door while in use will release the hot air and cool the oven which could impact the cooking time and performance. It is recommended to use the oven light to monitor cooking progress.
NOTE: On models with convection, the convection fan may run in the non-convection Bake mode to improve oven performance.
Temperature Management System
The Temperature Management System electronically regulates the oven heat levels during preheat and Bake to maintain a precise temperature range for optimal cooking results. The bake and broil elements or burners cycle on and off in intervals. On convection range models, the fan will run while preheating and may be cycled on and off for short intervals during bake to provide the best results. This feature is automatically activated when the oven is in use.
Before baking and roasting, position racks according to the “Positioning Racks and Bakeware” section. When roasting, it is not necessary to wait for the oven preheat cycle to end before putting food in, unless it is recommended in the recipe.
