on any part of the appliance.
DO NOT TOUCH SURFACE BURNERS, AREAS
NEAR THESE BURNERS, OVEN HEATING ELEMENTS OR INTERIOR SURFACES OF THE
OVEN. Both surface burners and oven heating
elements may be hot even though they are dark in color. Areas near surface burners may become hot enough to cause burns. During and after use, do not touch, or let clothing or other flammable materials touch these areas until they have had sufficient time to cool. Among these areas are the cooktop, surfaces facing the cooktop, the oven vent openings and surfaces near these openings,
oven door and window.
Wear proper apparel--Loose-fitting or hanging
garments should never be worn while using the appliance. Do not let clothing or other flammable
materials contact hot surfaces.
Do not use water or flour on grease fires--Smother the fire with a pan lid, or use baking soda, a dry chemical or foam-type extinguisher.
When heating fat or grease, watch it closely. Fat or grease may catch fire if allowed to become too hot.
In case of fire or gas leak, be sure to
turn off the main gas shutoff valve.
Use only dry potholders--Moist or damp potholders on hot surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do
not let potholders touch hot heating elements. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth instead of a potholder.
Do not heat unopened food containers--Build-up of pressure may cause container to burst and result in
injury.
Remove the oven doors from any unused range if it is to be stored or discarded.
IMPORTANT--Do not attempt to operate the oven during a power failure. If the power fails, always turn
the ovens off. If the ovens are not turns off and the power resumes, the oven may begin to operate again. Food left unattended could catch fire or spoil.
Use proper pan size--Adjust flame size
so it does not extend beyond the edge of the utensil. The use of undersize utensils will exposed a portion of the burner flame to direct contact and may result in ignition of clothing. Proper relationship of utensil to flame will also improve efficiency.
Do not use stove top grills on the burner
grates of sealed gas burners. If you use a stove top grill on a sealed gas burner, it will cause incomplete combustion and can result in exposure to carbon monoxide levels
above allowable current standards. This can be hazardous to your health.
Electronic controllers can be damaged
by cold temperatures. When you use your appliance for the first time, or if it has not been used for a long
period of time, make sure that it has been exposed to
a temperature above 0°C/32°F for at least 3 hours
before connecting it to the power supply.
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING YOUR COOKTOP
Know which knob controls each surface heating unit. Always turn the knob to the LITE position when igniting the burners. Visually check that burner has lit.
Then adjust the flame so it does not extend beyond the edge of the utensil.
Use proper pan size. This appliance is equipped with
one or more surface units of different sizes. Select
utensils having flat bottoms large enough to cover the
surface unit. The use of undersized utensils will expose a portion of the surface heating to direct contact and
may result in ignition of clothing. Proper relationship of utensil to the surface unit will also improve efficiency.
Utensil handles should be turned inward and not
extend over adjacent surface burners--To reduce the risk of burns, ignition of flammable materials, and spillage due to unintentional contact with the utensil. The handle of the utensil should be positioned so that it
is turned inward, and does not extend over adjacent
surface burners.
Never leave surface units unattended at high heat
settings--Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite, or a pan that has boiled dry
may melt.
Protective liners--Do not use aluminum foil to line
oven bottom or any other part of the appliance. Only
use aluminum foil as recommended for baking if used
as a cover placed on the food. Any other use of protective liners or aluminum foil may result in a risk of
electric shock or fire or short circuit.
Glazed cooking utensils--Only certain types of glass,
glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed
utensils are suitable for rangetop service without
breaking due to the sudden change in temperature. Check the manufacturer's recommendations for
rangetop use.
Do not use decorative surface burner covers. If a
burner is accidentally turned on, the decorative cover will become hot and possibly melt. Burns will occur if the hot covers are touched. Damage may also be done to the cooktop or the burners because the covers may cause overheating. Air will be blocked from the burner and cause combustion problems.
FOR GLASS COOKTOPS ONLY
Do not clean or operate a broken cooktop--lf
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 glass with caution--If a wet sponge or
cloth is used to wipe spills on a hot cooking area, be careful to avoid a steam burn. Some cleaners can
4
Important Safety Instructions
produce harmful fumes if applied to a hot surface.
Avoid scratching the cooktop glass with sharp
objects.
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING YOUR OVEN
Use care when opening oven door--Stand to the side of the range when opening the door of a hot oven. Let
hot air or steam escape before you remove or replace food in the oven.
Keep ovens vents unobstructed, Each vent has its own vent located on the top, near each side and towards
the back of the cooktop. Touching the surfaces in this area when the oven is operating may cause severe
burns. Also, do not place plastic or heat-sensitive items on or near an oven vent. These items could melt or
ignite.
Placement of ovens racks. Always place oven racks in desired location while ovens are cool. If rack must be
moved while oven is hot use extreme caution. Use potholders and grasp the rack with both hands to reposition. Do not let potholders contact the hot heating
elements in the ovens. Remove all utensils from the rack before moving.
Do not use the broiler pan without its grid. The broiler pan and its grid allow dripping fat to drain and be
kept away from the high heat of the broiler.
Do not cover the broiler grid with aluminum foil. Exposed fat and grease could ignite.
Do not touch a hot light bulb with a damp cloth. Doing so could cause the bulb to break. Disconnect the
appliance or turn off the power to the appliance before removing and replacing light bulb.

Conversion to Liquefied Petroleum Gas (or L.P. Gas)
This natural gas range is designed to allow for conversion to Liquefied Petroleum (L.P.) Gas.
Only a qualified service agent should perform the L. P. conversion. Contact the local gas provider for conversion. The L. P. Conversion Kit is supplied with this range and is located on the main back of the range. The kit contains
installation instructions which must be read before and followed carefully when installing the kit.
Surface Cooking
Use Proper Cookware
Cookware should have flat bottoms that
make good contact with the entire
surface heating element. Check for
flatness by rotating a ruler across the
bottom of the Figure 1 cookware (See
Figure 1). Be sure to follow the recommendations for using cookware as shown in Figure 2.
Note: The size and type of cookware used will influence the setting needed for best
cooking results. Note: Always use an utensil for its intended
purpose. Follow manufacturer's instructions. Some utensils were not made to be used in
the oven or on the cooktop.
Do not use griddle over
more than one burner because it could damage your cooktop. It can also result in
exposure to carbon monoxide levels above allowable current standards and be
hazardous to your health.
CORRECT INCORRECT
Flat bottom and straight sides.
Tight fitting lids.
Weight of handle does not tilt pan. Pan is well balanced.
Pan sizes match the amount of food to be prepared.
Made of a material that conducts heat well.
Easy to clean.
* Specialty pans such as lobster pots, griddles and pressure cookers may
be used but must conform to the above recommended cookware requirements.
Personal injury or death from electrical
shock may occur if the range is not installed by a qualified installer or electrician.
To avoid serious injury, any additions,
changes or conversions required in order for this appliance to satisfactorily meet the application needs must be made by a qualified service agent.

Cookware Material types
The cookware material determines how evenly and quickly heat is transferred from the surface element to the pan bottom. The most popular materials available are:
ALUMINUM - Excellent heat conductor. Some types of food will cause it to darken (Anodized aluminum cookware resists staining & pitting). If aluminum pans slide across the ceramic glass cooktop, they may leave metal marks which will resemble scratches. Remove these marks immediately.
COPPER - Excellent heat conductor but discolors easily. May leave metal marks on ceramic glass (see Aluminum above).
STAINLESS STEEL - Slow heat conductor with uneven cooking results. Is durable, easy to clean and resists staining. CAST IRON - A poor heat conductor however will retain heat very well. Cooks evenly once cooking temperature is
reached. Not recommended for use on ceramic cooktops. PORCELAIN-ENAMEL on METAL - Heating characteristics will vary depending on base material. Porcelain-enamel
coating must be smooth to avoid scratching ceramic cooktops. GLASS - Slow heat conductor. Not recommended for ceramic ceoktop surfaces because it may scratch the glass.

Surface Cooking
Specialty Pans & Trivets
DO NOT use a wok if it is equipped with a metal ring that extends beyond the burner unit. Because this ring traps heat, the cooktop surface could be damaged.
Canning Tips & Information
Canning can generate
large amounts of steam. Use extreme caution to prevent burns. Always raise the lid to vent steam away from you.
Woks withflat bottoms suitable for use on your
cooktop are available in most cookshop or hardware stores. Round-bottomed woks (with a support ring
that does not extend beyond the burner unit) may also be used. The metal ring was designed to support
the wok safely when it is filled with large amounts of
liquids (soup making) or fat (frying)
DO NOT use two burner units to heat
one large pan such as a roaster or griddle, or allow cooking utensils to boil dry. The bottom surface of the pan in either of these situations could cause discolor-
ing or cracking of the appliance cooking surface, and
damage to the grates and burner units.
Wire trivets: Do not use wire trivets. Cookware bottoms must be in direct contact with the surface elements.
1. Use tested recipes and follow instructions carefully. Check with the manufacturer of glass jars for the latest canning information.
2. Use flat-bottomed canners only. Heat is spread more evenly when the bottom surface is flat.
3. Center canner on the burner grate.
4. Start with hot water and a high heat setting to reduce the time it takes to bring the water to a boil; then reduce the heat setting as low as possible to
maintain a constant boil.
5. It is best to can small amounts and light loads.
Prevent damage to cooktop:
1. Do not use water bath or pressure canners that extend more than one inch beyond the edge of the burner grate.
2. Do not leave water bath or pressure canners on high heat for an extended amount of time.
3. Alternate surface units between each batch to allow the units and surrounding surfaces to cool down. Try to avoid canning on the same
burner unit all day.
Safe canning requires that harmful micro-organisms are
destroyed and the jars are sealed completely. When canning in a water bath canner, a gentle but steady boil must be maintained continuously for the
required time.

Surface Cooking
Using the Wok Stand
Always use potholders to remove the wok stand from the grate.
Allow the wok stand to cool before removing. Do not set hot wok stand on surfaces that cannot withstand high heat such as countertops.
The Wok Stand provided with your range is designed to allow only round-bottomed woks up to 14 inches in diameter (35.5 cm).
The Wok Stand must be used on either of the front burners, although it is recommended that you use the larger burner for best performance. Because the rim of the Wok Stand extends beyond the edge of the grate, DO NOT use the rear burner next to Wok stand when it is positioned over front burner. Spills or flame-ups may occur that may result in personal injury or cooktop damage.
If properly positioned, the Wok Stand cannot slide off the grate.
To properly position the Wok Stand
With the grate in position over the burner, set the Wok Stand on top of the grate. Turn the Wok Stand, as shown, until the grate fingers fit into the slots on the
bottom of the stand.
Be sure the grate stand is positioned correctly and stably before
use to prevent hot spills and possible burns.
Round-bottomed woks (with a support ring that does not extend beyond the burner unit) may also be used without the Wok Stand. The metal ring was
designed to support the wok safely when it is filled with large amounts of liquids (soup making) or fat (frying).
DO NOT use a wok if it is equipped with a metal ring that extends beyond the burner grate. Because this ring traps heat, the burner and cooktop surface could be damaged.

Setting Surface Controls
Do not place plastic items
such as salt and pepper shakers, spoon holders or plastic wrappings on top of the range when it is in use, These items
could melt or ignite. Potholders, towels or wood spoons could catch fire if placed too
close to a flame.
In the event of an electrical power outage, the surface burners can be lit manually. To light a surface burner, hold a lit match to the burner head, then rapidly turn the
surface control knob to Med. After burner lights turn knob to desired setting. Use
caution when lighting surface burners manually.

Operating the Gas Surface Controls:
1. Place cooking utensil on surface burner.
2. Push the surface control knob down and turn counterclockwise out of the OFF position (See Figure 1).
3. Release the knob and rotate to the LITE position. Note: All five electronic surface ignitors will spark at the same time. However, only the burner you are turning on will ignite.
4. Visually check that the burner has a flame.
5. Turn the control knob counterclockwise to the desired flame size. The control knobs do not have to be set at a particular setting. Use
the knob indicator settings to adjust the flame as needed. DO NOT cook with the surface control knob in the LITE position. (The electronic ignitor will continue to spark if the knob is left in the LITE position.)
Setting Proper Surface Burner Flame Size
For most cooking, start on the highest control setting and then turn to a
lower one to complete the process. Use the recommendations below as a guide for determining proper flame size for various types of cooking. The size and type of utensil used and the amount of food being cooked will
influence the setting needed for cooking.

*These settings are based on using medium-weight metal or
aluminum pans with lids. Settings may vary when using other types of pans. The color of the flame is the key to proper burner adjustment. A
good flame is clear, blue and hardly visible in a well-lighted room. Each cone of flame should be steady and sharp. Clean burner if flame is yellow-orange.
Regardless of size, always select cookware that is suitable for the amount and type of food being prepared. Select a burner and flame size appropriate to the pan. Never allow flames to extend beyond the outer edge of the pan.
Never extend the flame beyond the outer edge of the utensil. A higher flame wastes heat and energy and increases your risk of being burned by the flame (Figure 2).
For deep fat frying, use a thermometer and adjust the surface control
knob accordingly. If the fat is too cool, the food will absorb the fat and be greasy. If the fat is too hot, the food will brown quickly and the center will be undercooked. Do not attempt to deep fat fry too much food at once as the food will neither brown nor cook properly.

Oven Vent(s) and Racks
Oven Vent Locations
Each oven has its own vent located on the top, near each side and towards the back of the
cooktop. When an oven is on, warm air is released through the vent; this ventilation is
necessary for proper air circulation in the oven and good baking results.
Locations
Arranging Oven Racks
The smaller oven has one oven rack and the larger oven has three oven racks. ALWAYS ARRANGE OVEN RACKS WHEN THE
OVEN IS COOL (PRIOR TO OPERATING THE OVEN). Always use oven mitts when using the oven.
To remove an oven rack, pull the rack forward until it stops. Lift
up front of rack and slide out. To replace an oven rack, fit the rack onto the guides on the oven walls. Tilt the front of the rack
upward and slide the rack back into place.

Setting Convection Bake
The CONVECTION BAKE '_'_. pad controls the Convection Bake feature. Use the Convection Bake feature when cooking speed is desired. The oven can
be programmed for Convection baking at any temperature between 170 ° F (77 ° C) to 550 ° F (288 ° C).
Convection baking uses a fan to circulate the oven's heat evenly and continuously within the oven (See Figure 1).This improved heat distribution allows for fast, even
cooking and browning results. It also gives better baking results when using 2 or 3 racks at the same time. Breads and pastries brown more evenly. Convection bake
cooks most foods faster, at lower temperature and more evenly than conventional bake. This oven is equipped with multiple fan speeds for even cooking when
baking and better tasting meats when roasting. It will use a slower fan speed for baking. The slow fan speed slowly and evenly moves the air through the cavity
and produce lighter flakier crusts for pies and evenly brown cookies.
General Convection Bake Instructions
1. Time reductions will vary depending on the amount and type of food to be cooked. Cookies and biscuits should be baked on pans with no sides or
very low sides to allow heated air to circulate around the food. Food baked on pans with a dark finish will cook faster.
2. Preheating is not necessary when cooking casseroles with Convection Bake.
3. When using Convection Bake with a single rack, place oven rack in position 2 or 3. If cooking on multiple racks, place the oven racks in positions 2 and

Setting Convection Roast
This method of cooking enables you to obtain the best results when roasting. The oven can be programmed to convection roast at any temperature from 170°F to 550°F (77°C to 288°C). Remember to use tested recipes with times adjusted for convection roasting when using the convection mode. Times may be reduced by as much as 30% when using the convection feature. This oven is equipped with multiple fan speeds for even cooking when baking and better tasting meats when roasting. It will use a faster fan speed for roasting which will quickly strip the cold air away from the meats replacing it with warm air (making a crisp outside type of searing) sealing in juices for better tasting meats.

Setting the Slow Cook Feature
The _ SLOW COOK pad is used to activate this feature. The Slow Cook feature may be used to cook foods slowly, at lower oven temperatures and provides cooking results much the same way as a Slow Cooker or Crock-Pot.
The Slow Cook feature is ideal for roasting beef, pork & poultry. Slow Cooking meats may result in the exterior of meats becoming dark but not burnt. This is normal.
There are 2 settings available, high (HI) or low (LO). The maximum cook time for the Slow Cook feature is 12 hours unless the oven control has been changed to the Continuous Bake mode or the Sabbath mode has been activated.This
feature may be used with the additional settings of a Timed Bake Slow Cook (see Timed Bake beginning with step 5-7) or a Delayed Start Bake Slow Cook (see Delayed Start Bake steps 6-10).
Below is a list of preparation and cooking tips you should review for best possible results using Slow Cook:
Completely thaw all frozen foods before cooking with the Slow Cook feature.
When using a single rack, place in position 2 or 3 (see figure 1 on page 15).
Position multiple racks to accommodate size of cooking utensils when cooking multiple food items.
Do not open the oven door often or leave the door open when checking foods. If the oven heat escapes often, the
Slow Cook time may need to be extended.
Cover the foods to keep them moist or use a loose or vented type cover to allow foods to turn crisp or brown.
Cook times will vary; depending on the weight, fat content, bone & the shape of the meat.
Use a food thermometer to determine when the food is done to the recipe recommended temperature.
Preheating the oven will not be necessary when using the Slow Cook feature.
Add any cream or cheese sauces during the last hour of cooking.

Broiling Information
Broiling is a method of cooking tender cuts of meat by direct heat from the broil element of the oven. Meats are placed on the broiling rack and the rack is placed under the broiling element. See the broiling instructions for main oven in the Setting Oven Controls section. See side oven step-by-step instructions in the Setting Side Oven Control
section.
Preheating
Preheating is suggested when broiling rare steaks (remove all utensils before preheating). To preheat, set the oven control to BROIL. Wait for the element to
become red-hot, usually about 2 minutes. Preheating is not necessary when broiling meats well-done.
To Broil
Broil on one side until the food is browned; turn and cook on the other side; season and serve. Always pull rack out to the stop position before turning or
removing food.
Determining Broiling Times
Broiling times vary; watch the food closely. Time not only depends on the distance from the element, but on the thickness and age of meat, fat content '
and doneness preferred. The first side usually requires a few minutes longer
than the second. Frozen meats also require additional time. ..............
Broiling Tips ,,
Broiler pan and its grid allow dripping grease to drain and be kept away from the ....
high heat of the broiler.
DO NOT use a pan without its grid. DO NOT cover the grid with foil. The exposed grease could ignite.
Should an oven fire occur, close the oven door and turn off the oven.
If the fire contin ues, throw baking soda on the fire or use a fire extinguisher. DO NOT put water or flour on the fire. Flour may be explosive.
Always pull oven rack out to the stop position before turning or removing
food. Broiler Clean-Up Tips:
To make cleaning easier, line bottom of the broiler pan with aluminum foil. DO NOT cover the broiler grid with foil.
To prevent grease from baking on, remove the broiler pan from the oven as soon as cooking iscompleted. Use hot pads because the broiler pan is extremely hot. Pour off grease. Soak the pan in HOT, soapy water.
Clean the broiler pan as soon as possible after each use. If necessary, use soap- filled steel wool pads. Heavy scouring may scratch the grid.

Setting Oven Controls
Setting Broil
The pad controls the Broil feature. When broiling, heat radiates downward from the oven broiler for even coverage. The Broil feature temperature may be set between 400°F and 550°F. This appliance includes a Searing Grill for searing
meats (Figure 6). The broil pan and broil pan insert used together allow dripping grease to drain and be kept away from the high heat of the oven broiler. DO NOT use the broil pan without the insert (See Figure 5). DO NOT cover the broil pan insert with foil. The exposed grease could catch fire.
Should an oven fire occur, leave the oven door closed and turn off the oven. If the fire continues, throw
baking soda on the fire or use a fire extinguisher. DO NOT put water or flour on the fire. Flour may be explosive and water can cause a grease fire to spread and cause personal injury.
INSTRUCTIONS PRESS DISPLAY
To set the oven to broil at 500°F
1. Place the broiler pan insert on the broiler pan. Then place the food on the broiler pan insert. DO NOT use the broiler pan without the
insert. DO NOT cover the broiler insert with foil. The exposed grease could ignite.
2. Arrange the interior oven rack and place the broiler pan on the rack. Be sure to center the broiler pan directly under the broiler

Broiling Times and Searing Grill
Use the following table for approximate broiling times. Increase or decrease broiling times, or move the broiling pan to a different rack position to suit for doneness. If the food you are broiling is not listed in the table, follow the instructions provided in your cookbook and watch the item closely. Use the Searing Grill for meats and steaks if desired. Before placing the meat, be sure to heat the Searing Grill using Broil for 10 minutes. Cook times should be reduced 1-2 minutes per side when cooking with the Searing Grill. Place Searing Grill on top of Broiler Pan and insert for meats and steaks (See Figure 6).

Self-Cleaning Oven
A Self-Cleaning oven cleans itself with high temperatures (well above cooking temperatures) which eliminate soils completely or reduces them to a fine powdered ash you can wipe away with a damp cloth.
Adhere to the following cleaning precautions:
DO NOT use oven cleaners or oven protective coatings in or around any
part of the Self-Cleaning oven.
DO NOT clean the oven door gasket. The woven material of the oven , door gasket is essential for a good seal. Care should be taken not to rub, damage or remove the gasket.
DO NOT use any cleaning materials on the oven door gasket. Doing so .............
could cause damage. ..........
Remove the broiler pan and insert, all utensils and any aluminum ....
foil, These items cannot withstand high cleaning temperatures,
Porcelain oven racks do not have to be removed. After the cycle is complete and the oven has cooled, rub the sides of the oven racks with wax paper or a cloth containing a small amount of salad oil (this will make the racks glide easier into the rack position).
Remove any excessive spillovers in the oven cavity before starting the Self-Cleaning cycle. To clean, use hot, soapy water and a cloth. Large spillovers can cause heavy smoke or fire when subjected to high temperatures. DO NOT allow food spills with a high sugar or acid content (such as milk, tomatoes, sauerkraut, fruit juices or pie filling) to remain on the surface as they may leave a dull spot even after cleaning. Clean any soil from the oven frame, the door liner outside the oven door gasket and the small area at the front center of the oven bottom. These areas heat sufficiently to burn soil on. Clean with soap and water.

NOTE: Prior to setting the Self-Clean cycle, any spills remaining on the oven bottom should be removed.
What to Expect during Cleaning
While the oven is in operation, the oven heats to temperatures much higher than those used in normal cooking. Sounds of metal expansion and contraction are normal. Odor is also normal as the food soil is being removed. Smoke may appear through the oven vent.
If heavy spillovers are not wiped up before cleaning, they may flame and
cause more smoke and odor than usual. This is normal and safe and should not cause alarm. If available, use an exhaust fan during the self-cleaning
cycle.
To avoid possible burns use care when opening the oven door
after the Self-Cleaning cycle. Stand to the side of the oven when opening the door to allow hot air or steam to escape.

Porcelain Enamel Oven Cleaning (SideOven)
Adhere to the following cleaning precautions:
Allow the oven to cool before cleaning.
Wear rubber gloves when cleaning the appliance manually.
Porcelain has a smooth finish and is a type of glass fused to metal. Oven cleaners can be used on all interior oven surfaces.
General Cleaning
Remove soils using hot, soapy water. Do not allow food spills with a high sugar or acid content (such as milk, tomatoes, saukerkraut, fruit juices or pie filling) to remain on the surface as they may cause a dull spot even after cleaning.
Remove spillovers and heavy soils as soon as possible. Regular cleanings now will reduce the extent and difficulty of major cleaning later,
Ammonia must be
rinsed off before operating the oven.
Provide adequate ventilation.
To Remove Heavy Soil
1. Allow a dish of ammonia to sit inthe oven overnight or for several hours with the oven door closed. Clean softened spots using hot, soapy water. Rinse
well with water and a clean cloth.
2. If soil remains, use a soap-filled scouring pad or a nonabrasive cleaner. If necessary, use an oven cleaner following manufacturer's instructions. DO
NOT mix ammonia with other cleaners.
Adhere to the following precautions when using oven cleaners
1. DO NOT spray on the electrical controls or switches because it could cause a short circuit and result in sparking or fire.
2. DO NOT allow a film from the cleaner to build up on the temperature sens- ' ing bulb located at the top left rear corner of the oven; it could cause the
oven to heat improperly. Carefully wipe the bulb clean after each oven clean- i
ing, being careful not to move the bulb. A change in its position could affect .............
how the oven bakes. Avoid bending the bulb and capillary tube.
3. DO NOT spray any cleaner on the oven door trim or gasket, handles or any ,, ....
exterior surfaces of the range, wood or painted surfaces. The cleaner can damage these surfaces.
To Clean the Oven Bottom
Clean using hot, soapy water, a mild abrasive cleanser, a soap-filled abrasive pad or oven cleaner following oven cleaner manufacturer's instructions.
DO NOT line the oven walls, bottom, racks or any other part of
the appliance with aluminum foil. Doing so will destroy heat distribution, pro- duce poor baking results and cause permanent damage to the oven interior (aluminum foil will melt to the interior surface of the oven).

Ceramic Glass Cooktop Cleaning & Maintenance
Prior to using your cooktop for the first time, apply the recommended Cleaning Creme to the ceramic surface. Clean and buff with a non abrasive cloth or pad. This will make cleaning easier when soiled from cooking. The special cooktop cleaning cream leaves a protective finish on the glass to help prevent scratches and abrasions.
Sliding aluminum or copper clad bottom pans on the cooktop can cause metal mark- ings on the cooktop surface. These marks should be removed immediately after the cooktop has cooled using the cooktop cleaning cream. Metal marks can become permanent if not removed prior to future use.
Cookware (cast iron, metal, ceramic or glass) with rough bottoms can mark or scratch the cooktop surface. Do not slide anything metal or glass across the cooktop. Do not use your cooktop as a cutting board or work surface in the kitchen. Do not cook foods directly on the cooktop surface
without a pan. Do not drop heavy or hard objects on the glass cooktop, or they may crack it.
Cleaning Recommendations for the Ceramic Glass Cooktop For light to moderate soil:
Apply a few drops of Cleaning Creme directly to the cooktop. Use a paper towel or a Multi-Purpose No Scratch Scrub Sponge to clean the entire cooktop surface. Make sure the cooktop is cleaned thoroughly, leaving no residue. Do not use the sponge you use to clean the cooktop for any other purpose.
For heavy, burned on soil:
First, clean the surface as described above. Then, if soils remain, carefully scrape soils with a metal razor blade scraper, holding scraper at
a 30 degree angle to the surface. Remove the loosened soils, and then apply cooktop cleaning creme and buff surface clean.
Damage to the ceramic glass cooktop may occur if you use any scrub pad other than a Multi-Purpose No Scratch Scrub Sponge.
Plastic or foods with a high sugar content: These types of soils need be removed immediately if spilled or melted
onto the ceramic cooktop surface. Permanent damage (such as pitting of the cooktop surface) may occur if not removed immediately. After turning
the surface elements OFF, use a razor blade scraper or a metal spatula with a mitt and scrape the soil from the hot surface (as illustrated). Allow
the cooktop to cool, and use the same method for heavy or burned on soils.
Do not use the following on the ceramic glass cooktop:
Do not use abrasive cleaners and scouring pads, such as metal
and some nylon pads. They may scratch the cooktop, making it
more difficult to clean.
Do not use harsh cleaners, such as chlorine bleach, ammonia or
oven cleaners, as they may etch or discolor the cooktop.
Do not use dirty sponges, cloths or paper towels, as they can
leave soil or lint on the cooktop which can burn and cause
discoloration.

Ceramic Glass Cooktop Cleaning & Maintenance
Special Caution for Aluminum Foil and Aluminum Cooking Utensils
Aluminum foil Use of aluminum foil will damage the cooktop. Do not use under any circumstances.
Aluminum utensils
Since the melting point of aluminum is much lower than that of other metals, care must be taken when aluminum pots or pans are used. Pans that boil dry may permanently damage cooktop by marking, breaking or fusing to it.
Care and Cleaning of Stainless Steel (Stainless Steelmodelsonly)
Some models are equipped with stainless steel exterior parts. Special care and cleaning are required for maintaining the appearance of stainless parts. Please refer to the table provided at the beginning of the General Care & Cleaning
section in this Use & Care Guide.
To Clean the Burner Grates, Contoured Burner Pans, Burner Caps, and Burner Bases
The burner grates, contoured burner pans, burner cap, and burner base should be routinely cleaned. Keeping the burner ports clean will prevent improper ignition and an uneven flame. Follow instructions below.
To Clean the Contoured Burner Pans
The square burner palls are attached to the cooktop and are not removable. The burner pan forms a recessed well area located around each burner unit. If a spill occurs in one of the four well areas, blot up spill with an absorbent
cloth. Rinse with a clean, damp cloth and wipe dry.
To Clean the Grates
The burner grates and wok stand are dishwasher safe. Any remaining soil may be removed by gently scouring with a soapy scouring pad. Rinse with a 1:1 solution of clean water and ammonia. Ifnecessary, cover difficult spots with an ammonia-soaked paper towel for 30 to 40 minutes. Rinse with clean water and a damp cloth, then scrub with a soap-filled scouring pad. Rinse and wipe dry with a clean cloth. Remove all cleaners thoroughly or the grate porcelain may become damaged during future heating. DO NOT use spray over cleaners.
To Clean the Burner Caps
Use a soap-filled scouring pad or a mild abrasive cleanser to clean burner caps. If necessary, cover stubborn spots with an ammonia-soaked paper towel for 30 minutes. Rub gently with a soap-filled scouring pad and rinse with a mixture of clean water and vinegar. Wipe dry. Remove all cleaners thoroughly or the burner cap porcelain may become damaged during future heating.
To Clean the Burner Bases and Gas Openings
The ports (or slots) around the burner base must be routinely cleaned. Use a small-gauge wire or needle to clean small slots or holes. Use care to prevent damage to the electrode. If a cleaning cloth should catch the electrode, it could break or damage the electrode. If the electrode is damaged or broken, the surface burner will not light because it will not spark. Manual lighting with a match is still possible.
For proper flow of gas and ignition of the burner--DO NOT ALLOW SPILLS, FOOD, CLEANING AGENTS OR ANY OTHER MATERIAL TO ENTER THE GAS OPENING. Gas must flow freely through the small hole in the brass orifice
for the burners to light properly. If the gas opening orifice becomes soiled or clogged, use a small-gauge wire or needle to clean. ALWAYS keep the burner cap assembly and ring in place whenever a surface burner is in use.
After cleaning make sure each burner cap is properly aligned and level. Turn the burner on to determine if it will light. If the burner does not light after cleaning, contact a Sears Service Center. Do not service the sealed burner yourself.

To remove, pull each knob straight off the shaft. Clean using hot, soapy water and a dishcloth. Be sure to squeeze excess water from the cloth before wiping the panel; espe-
cially when wiping around the controls. Excess water in or around the controls may cause damage to the appliance.To replace knobs after cleaning, line up the flat sides of both the
knob and the shaft; then push the knob into place.
Cleaners made especially for stainless steel as Stainless Steel Magic, or other similar
cleaners are recommended. Always follow the manufacturer's instructions. Be sure to
rinse the cleaners as bluish stains may occur during heating and cannot be removed.
Remove racks. See "To remove and to replace an Oven Rack" under Setting Oven Controls. Use a mild, abrasive cleaner, following manufacturer's instructions. Rinse with
clean water and dry. After cleaning the racks, rub the sides of the racks with wax paper or
a cloth containing a small amount of baby oil or salad oil (this will make the racks glide
easier into the rack positions).
Gentle scouring with a soapy scouring pad will remove most spots. Rinse with a 1:1 solution of clear water and ammonia. If necessary, cover difficult spots with an ammonia-
soaked paper towel for 30 to 40 minutes. Rinse with clean water and a damp cloth and
then scrub with a soap-filled scouring pad. Rinse and wipe dry with a clean cloth. Re-
move all cleaners or the porcelain may become damaged during future heating. DO NOT use spray oven cleaners on the cooktop.

DO NOT clean the oven door gasket.The oven door gasket is made of a woven material
which is essential for a good seal. Care should be taken not to rub, damage or remove the gasket.
For general cleaning, use hot, soapy water and a cloth. For more difficult soils and built- up grease, apply a liquid detergent directly onto the soil. Leave on soil for 30to 60 minutes.
Rinse with a damp cloth and dry. DO NOT use abrasive cleaners on any of these materials; they can scratch. To remove control knobs, turn to the OFF position; grasp
firmly and pull straight off the shaft. To replace knobs after cleaning, line up the flat sides of both the knob and the shaft; then push the knob into place.
