o Know which knob controls each surface heating unit.

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 unit to direct contact and
may result in ignition of clothing. Proper relationship of
utensil to the surface unit will also improve efficiency.

Utensil handJes shouJd be turned inward and not
extend over adjacent surface unite. To reduce the risk

of burns, ignition of flammable materials, and spillage
due to unintentional contact with the utensil.

bottom or any other part of the appliance. Only use

aluminum foil as recommended for baking if used as a

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 cooktop use.

Selecting Surface Cooking Utensils

For best result and energy conservation, choose cooking utensils that have these characteristics:

Pans should have fiat bottoms that
make good contact with the entire sur-

face element, Check for flatness by

rotating a ruler across the bottom,

There should be no gaps between the

pan and ruler,

Note: Always use a utensil for its in-
tended purpose. Follow

manufacturer's instructions. Some
utensils were not made to be used in
the oven or on the cooktop.

Specialty Pans & Trivets

*GOOD

t t

o 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 and the size of
the surface element.

* Made of material that conducts heat

well.

* Easy to dean.

* Specialty pans such as lobster pots,
griddles and pressure cookers may be

used but must conform to the above
recommended cookware requirements.

POOR

° Curved and warped pan bottoms.

* Pan overhangs unit by more than

2.5 cm (1").

Woks with flat bottoms suitable for

use on your cooktop are available in
most cookshop or hardware stores.

Wire trivets: Do not use wire trivets,

Cookware bottoms must be in direct

contact with the surface elements,

DO NOT use two elements 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 discoloring or crazing of the range surface.

DO NOT use a wok if it is equipped
with a metaJ ring, Because this ring
traps heat, the surface eJement and
cooktop surface could be damaged,

Surface Cooking

*The suggested settings found in the chart above are based on cooking in medium thickness aluminum pans with lids.
Settings may vary when using other types of pans.

Do not place items such as salt and pepper shakers, spoon holders or pJastic wrappings on top of

the cooktop when it is in use. These items could melt or ignite. Potholders, towels or wood could catch fire if placed too
close to the element.

Oven Vent
Location

Changing Oven

Light

Oven Vent Location
The oven is vented at the right side front panel and visible when the oven door is open or

through the right rear coil element. See illustration for the exact location. When the oven
is on, warm air is released through the vent(s). This venting is necessary for proper air
circulation in the oven and good baking results. DO NOT block the vent(s). Doing so may
cause cooking failures, fire or damage to the appliance.

Arranging 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 reptace 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.

Be sure the oven is unplugged and all parts are COOL before replacing the

oven light bulb. Do not turn the oven light on during a self-cleaning cycle. High temperature
will reduce lamp life.

On some models an interior oven light will turn on automatically when the oven is opened.
The oven light may be turned on when the door is closed by using the oven light switch

located on the Electronic Oven control.
On a self-cleanning oven the lamp is covered with a glass shield held in place by a wire

holder.
THIS GLASS SHIELD MUST ALWAYS BE IN PLACE WHEN THE OVEN IS IN USE.

To Reptace the Light Bulb:

BE SURE OVEN iS COOL

1. Turn the power off at the main source.

2. Wear a leather-faced glove for protection against possible broken glass.

3. Replace bud with a 40 Watt appliance bud only.

4. For self-cleaning oven, press wire holder to one side to release glass shield, change bud
and be sure to replace glass shield.

Broiling Tips

Preheating is suggested when searing rare steaks (remove the broiler pan
before preheating. Foods wHUstick if pUacedon hot metaL) To preheat, set the
oven controU(s) to BROIL as instructed in the "ELECTRONIC OVEN CONTROL
SECTION'. Wait for the element to become red-hot, usually about 2 minutes.
Preheating is not necessary when broiling meats to welPdone.

Broil on one side until the food is browned; turn and cook on the second side,
Season and serve. Atways pull rack out to the "stop" position before

turning or removing food.

Broiling times vary, so 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 afew minutes longer
than the second, Frozen meats also require additional time,

Broiler Ctean-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 is completed. 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,
