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:

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.

■ 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 – Be sure the range is properly installed

and grounded by a qualified technician.

■ Never Use the Range for Warming or Heating the Room. ■ Do Not Leave Children Alone – Children should not be left

alone or unattended in area where the range is in use. They should never be allowed to sit or stand on any part of the range.

Wear Proper Apparel – Loose-fitting or hanging garments

■

should never be worn while using the range. User Servicing – Do not repair or replace any part of the

■

range unless specifically recommended in the manual. All other servicing should be referred to a qualified technician.

■ Storage in or on the Range – Flammable materials should

not be stored in an oven or near surface units.

■ Do Not Use Water on Grease Fires – Smother fire or flame

or use dry chemical or foam-type extinguisher.

■ Use Only Dry Potholders – Moist or damp potholders on

hot surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do not let potholder touch hot heating elements. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth.

■ DO NOT TOUCH SURFACE UNITS OR AREAS NEAR

UNITS – Surface units may be hot even though they are dark in color. Areas near surface units may become hot enough to cause burns. During and after use, do not touch, or let clothing or other flammable materials contact surface units or areas near units until they have had sufficient time to cool. Among those areas are the cooktop and surfaces facing the cooktop.

■ Use Proper Pan Size – The range is equipped with one or

more surface units of different size. Select utensils having flat bottoms large enough to cover the surface unit heating element. The use of undersized utensils will expose a portion of the heating element to direct contact and may result in ignition of clothing. Proper relationship of utensil to burner will also improve efficiency.

■ Never Leave Surface Units Unattended at High Heat

Settings – Boilover causes smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite.

■ Make Sure Reflector Pans or Drip Bowls Are in Place –

Absence of these pans or bowls during cooking may subject wiring or components underneath to damage.

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF TIPPING OF

■ Protective Liners – Do not use aluminum foil to line surface

unit drip bowls or oven bottoms, except as suggested in the manual. Improper installation of these liners may result in a risk of electric shock, or fire.

Glazed Cooking Utensils – Only certain types of glass,

■

glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed utensils are suitable for range-top service without breaking due to the sudden change in temperature.

■ Utensil Handles Should Be Turned Inward and Not Extend

Over Adjacent Surface Units – To reduce the risk of burns, ignition of flammable materials, and spillage due to unintentional contact with the utensil, the handle of a utensil should be positioned so that it is turned inward, and does not extend over adjacent surface units.

■ Do Not Soak Removable Heating Elements – Heating

elements should never be immersed in water.

■ Do Not Cook on Broken Cooktop – If cooktop should

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

■ Clean Cooktop With Caution – If a wet sponge or cloth is

used to wipe spills on a hot cooking area, be careful to avoid steam burn. Some cleaners can produce noxious fumes if applied to a hot surface.

Use Care When Opening Door – Let hot air or steam

■

escape before removing or replacing food.

■ Do Not Heat Unopened Food Containers – Build-up of

pressure may cause container to burst and result in injury.

Keep Oven Vent Ducts Unobstructed.

■ ■ Placement of Oven Racks – Always place oven racks in

desired location while oven is

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

DO NOT TOUCH HEATING ELEMENTS OR INTERIOR

■

SURFACES OF OVEN – Heating elements may be hot even though they are dark in color. Interior surfaces of an oven become hot enough to cause burns. During and after use, do not touch, or let clothing or other flammable materials contact heating elements or interior surfaces of oven until they have had sufficient time to cool. Other surfaces of the appliance may become hot enough to cause burns – among these surfaces are oven vent openings and surfaces near these openings, oven doors, and windows of oven doors.

For self-cleaning ranges –

■ Do Not Clean Door Gasket – The door gasket is essential

for a good seal. Care should be taken not to rub, damage, or move the gasket.

■ Do Not Use Oven Cleaners – No commercial oven cleaner

or oven liner protective coating of any kind should be used in or around any part of the oven.

■ Clean Only Parts Listed in Manual. ■ Before Self-Cleaning the Oven – Remove broiler pan and

other utensils.

For units with ventilating hood –

■ Clean Ventilating Hoods Frequently – Grease should not

be allowed to accumulate on hood or filter.

■ When flambeing foods under the hood, turn the fan on.

KEY USAGE TIPS

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

Ceramic Glass Cooktop Cleaning

To avoid damaging the cooktop, do not use steel wool, abrasive powder cleansers, chlorine bleach, rust remover, or ammonia.

1. Remove food/residue with the Cooktop Scraper.

■ For best results, use the Cooktop Scraper while the

cooktop is still warm but not hot to the touch. It is recommended to wear an oven mitt while scraping the warm cooktop.

■ Hold the Cooktop Scraper at approximately a 45° angle

against the glass surface and scrape the residue. It will be necessary to apply pressure in order to remove the residue.

Allow the cooktop to cool down completely before proceeding to Step 2.

2. Apply a few dime-sized drops of affresh® Cooktop Cleaner

to the affected areas.

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.

■ Rub affresh

with the blue Cooktop Cleaning Pad. Some pressure is needed to remove stubborn stains.

■ Allow the cleaner to dry to a white haze before

proceeding to Step 3.

3. Polish with a clean, dry cloth or a clean, dry paper towel.

■ Repeat steps 1 through 3 as necessary for stubborn

or burned-on stains.

The Complete Cooktop Cleaner Kit is available for order including the following:

■ Cooktop Scraper ■ affresh ■ Blue Cooktop Cleaning Pads

WARNING

Fire Hazard

Turn off all controls when done cooking.

Failure to do so can result in death or fire.

COOKTOP

■ For foods containing sugar in any form, clean up all spills

and soils as soon as possible. Allow the cooktop to cool down slightly. Then, while wearing oven mitts, remove the spills using a scraper while the surface is still warm. If sugary spills are allowed to cool down, they can adhere to the cooktop and can cause pitting and permanent marks.

■ To avoid scratches, do not slide cookware or bakeware

across the cooktop. Aluminum or copper bottoms and rough ﬁnishes on cookware or bakeware could leave scratches or marks on the cooktop.

■ Do not cook popcorn in prepackaged aluminum containers

on the cooktop. They could leave aluminum marks that cannot be removed completely.

■ To avoid damage to the cooktop, do not allow objects that

could melt, such as plastic or aluminum foil, to touch any part of the entire cooktop.

■ To avoid damage to the cooktop, do not use the cooktop

as a cutting board.

■ Use cookware about the same size as the surface cooking

area. Cookware should not extend more than 1/2" (1.3 cm) outside the area.

The control knobs can be set to anywhere between HIGH and LOW. Push in and turn to setting.

REMEMBER: When range is in use, the entire cooktop area may become hot.

Ceramic Glass

The surface cooking area may glow red when an element is ON. Some parts of the surface cooking area may not glow red when an element is ON. The glow will also randomly cycle off and back on again, even while on High, to keep the cooktop from extreme temperatures. This is normal operation.

It is normal for the surface of light-colored ceramic glass to appear to change color when surface cooking areas are hot. As the glass cools, it will return to its original color.

Clean the cooktop after each use to help avoid scratches, pitting, abrasions, and to condition the glass surface. Ceramic glass cooktop cleaner and a cooktop scraper are also recommended for stubborn soils. Do not use abrasive cleaners, cleaning pads, or harsh chemicals for cleaning. The Complete Cooktop Cleaner Kit contains all of the items needed to clean and condition your ceramic glass cooktop. Refer to the “Range Care” section for additional information.

IMPORTANT: To avoid permanent damage to the cooktop surface and to make soils easier to remove, clean the cooktop after each use to remove all soils.

■ Avoid storing jars or cans above the cooktop. Dropping

a heavy or hard object onto the cooktop could crack the cooktop.

■ To avoid damage to the cooktop, do not leave a hot lid on

the cooktop. As the cooktop cools, air can become trapped between the lid and the cooktop and the ceramic glass could break when the lid is removed.

A. Surface cooking area B. Cookware/canner

/2" (1.3 cm) maximum overhang

■ Use ﬂat-bottomed cookware for best heat conduction and

energy efﬁciency. Cookware with rounded, warped, ribbed, or dented bottoms could cause uneven heating and poor cooking results.

■ Determine 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.

■ Cookware designed with slightly indented bottoms or small

expansion channels can be used.

■ Make sure the bottoms of pots and pans are clean and dry

before using them. Residue and water can leave deposits when heated.

■ To avoid damage to the cooktop, do not cook foods directly

on the cooktop.

Cooktop On Indicator Light

The Cooktop On indicator light is located on the console panel. When any control knob on the console panel is turned on, the Cooktop On indicator light will glow.

Hot Surface Indicator Light

On ceramic glass models, the Hot Surface indicator light is located on the console panel.

The Hot Surface indicator light will glow as long as any surface cooking area is too hot to touch, even after the surface cooking area is turned off.

Dual Zone Cooking Element

The Dual Zone cooking element offers ﬂexibility depending on the size of the cookware. Single size can be used in the same way as a regular element. The dual size combines both the single and outer element and is recommended for larger size cookware.

A. Single B. Dual

Melt Element

The Melt cooking element offers ﬂexibility due to a wide range of settings between High and Melt. The High heat option can be used to boil small amounts of liquid quickly. To reduce the power setting, turn the knob clockwise. The Melt setting is designed for delicate foods that require low heat, such as when melting chocolate or holding sauces. Use cookware appropriate in size for the Melt cooking element.

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.

■ Follow manufacturer’s instructions. ■ Use on low heat settings. ■ May scratch the cooktop. ■ See stainless steel or cast iron. ■ Porcelain enamel bakeware without the

metal base may bond to the cooktop if overheated.

■ Heats quickly, but unevenly. ■ A core or base of aluminum or copper

on stainless steel provides even heating.

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

Canning can be performed on a glass smoothtop cooking surface or traditional coil element cooktop. When canning for long periods, alternate the use of surface cooking areas or elements between batches. This allows time for the most recently used areas to cool.

Center the canner on the largest surface cooking area or element. On electric cooktops, canners should not extend more than 1/2" (1.3 cm) beyond the surface cooking area or element.

■ Do not place canner on 2 surface cooking areas or elements

at the same time.

■ On ceramic glass models, use only ﬂat-bottomed canners

to avoid damage to the cooktop and elements.

■ 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.

A. Ends of rack in position 3 B. Food in position 2

IMPORTANT: These rack positions are for ﬂat racks. If a Max Capacity Oven Rack is used, the rack position must be adjusted as shown in the previous ﬁgure.

Multiple Rack Cooking

2-rack (non-convection): Use rack positions 2 and 5 or 3 and 6. 2-rack (convection): Use rack positions 2 and 5 or 3 and 6. 3-rack (convection): Use rack positions 2 and 7 and a Max

Capacity Oven Rack in rack position 5.

Baking Cookies and Layer Cakes on 2 Racks

Baking Layer Cakes

For best results when baking cakes on 2 racks, use the Bake function, a ﬂat rack in rack position 5, and a ﬂat rack in rack position 2. If you do not have 2 ﬂat racks, use a Max Capacity Oven Rack in rack position 6. Place the cakes on the racks as shown. Keep at least 3" (7.6 cm) of space between the front of the racks and the front cakes.

The oven has 7 positions for a ﬂat rack, as shown in the previous illustration and the following table.

Flat Rack Position* Type of Food

7 Broiling/searing meats,

6 Broiled meats, poultry, ﬁsh 3 or 4 Most baked goods, casseroles,

2 Roasted meats 1 Large roasts or poultry

For hamburger patties to have a well-seared exterior and a rare interior, use a ﬂat rack in rack position 7. Side 1 should cook for approximately 21/2 to 31/2 minutes. Side 2 should cook for approximately 4 to 5 minutes. Expect a moderate degree of smoke when broiling.

* If your model has a Max Capacity Oven Rack, the recessed ends

must be placed in the rack position above the desired position of the food. See the following illustration.

hamburgers, steaks

frozen foods

Baking Cookies

For best results when baking cookies on 2 racks, use the Convection Bake function, a ﬂat rack in rack position 6, and a ﬂat rack in rack position 3.

If you do not have 2 ﬂat racks, use a ﬂat rack in rack position 2 and a Max Capacity Oven Rack in rack position 6.

If you do not have Convection Bake, use the standard Bake function.

Oven Vent

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 display 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.

Baking and Roasting

Preheating

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.

Broiling

When broiling, preheat the oven for 2 minutes before putting food in, unless recommended otherwise in the recipe. Position food on grid in a broiler pan, and then place it in the center of the oven rack.

IMPORTANT: Close the door to ensure proper broiling temperature.

Changing the temperature when broiling allows more precise control when cooking. The lower the broil setting is, the slower the cooking. Thicker cuts and unevenly shaped pieces of meat, ﬁsh and poultry may cook better at lower broil settings. Use rack 6 or 7 for broiling. Refer to the “Positioning Racks and Bakeware” section for more information.

On lower settings, the broil element will cycle on and off to maintain the proper temperature.

■ For best results, use a broiler pan and grid. It is designed

to drain juices and help avoid spatter and smoke. If you would like to purchase a broiler pan, one may be

ordered. See the “Accessories” section.

Clean Cycle

RANGE CARE

Alternative Clean Technology is an innovative cleaning solution that utilizes heat and water to release baked-on spills from the oven in less than 1 hour. This new cleaning technology is a low-heat, odor-free alternative to traditional self-cleaning options.

Allow the oven to cool to room temperature before using the Clean cycle. If your oven cavity is above 200°F (93°C), “Oven Cooling” will appear in the display, and the Clean cycle will not be activated until the oven cavity cools down.

To Clean:

1. Remove all racks and accessories from the oven cavity,

and wipe excess soil. Use a plastic scraper to remove easily removed soils.

2. Pour 2 cups (16 oz [500 mL]) of distilled or ﬁltered water onto

the bottom of the empty oven and close the oven door.

IMPORTANT: Do not use chemicals or other additives with the water. Do not open the oven door during the Clean cycle. The water on the oven bottom is hot.

3. Press ALTERNATIVE CLEAN and then START on the oven

control panel.

4. Allow 40 minutes for cleaning and cooldown. A beep will

sound when the Clean cycle is complete.

5. Press CANCEL/OFF at the end of the cycle. Cancel/Off may

be pressed at any time to stop the Clean cycle.

6. Remove the residual water and loosened soils with a sponge

or cloth immediately after the Clean cycle is complete. Much of the initial 2 cups (16 oz [500 mL]) of water will remain in the oven after the cycle is completed. If additional soils remain, leave a small amount of water in the oven bottom to assist with the cleaning.

7. If any soils remain, remove them with a non-scratch

scrubbing sponge or plastic scraper. Additional Clean cycles may be run to help remove the stubborn soils.

IMPORTANT: Do not use oven cleaners. The use of chemicals, including commercial oven cleaners or metal scouring pads, may cause permanent damage to the porcelain surface of the oven interior.

NOTES:

■ The range should be level to ensure that the entire surface

of the bottom of the oven cavity is covered by water at the beginning of the Clean cycle.

■ For best results, use distilled or ﬁltered water. Tap water

may leave mineral deposits on the oven bottom.

■ Before removing the residual water and loosened soils at the

end of the Clean cycle, insert a cloth or paper towel between the lower edge of the oven door and the front frame to keep water from spilling onto the front of the range and the ﬂoor.

■ Soil baked on through several cooking cycles will be more

difﬁcult to remove with the Clean cycle.

■ Nonabrasive scrub sponges or eraser-style cleaning pads

(without cleaners) can be effective for cleaning the oven cavity walls, oven door, and oven bottom for difﬁcult soils. For best results, moisten the pads and sponges before use.

■ Run an additional Clean cycle for stubborn soils. ■ affresh

Kitchen Appliance Cleaner and affresh® Cooktop Cleaner may be used to clean the oven bottom, walls, and door when the oven has ﬁnished the cycle and returned to room temperature. If affresh® Cooktop Cleaner is used, it is recommended to wipe out the cavity with distilled water as well. Refer to the “Accessories” section for information on ordering.

■ Additional AquaLift

Technology Cleaning Kits may be obtained by ordering Part Number W10423113RP. See the “Accessories” section for more information.
