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 burners of different sizes. Select utensils
having flat bottoms large enough to cover the surface
burner. The use of undersized utensils will expose a portion
of the surface burner to direct contact and may result in
ignition of clothing. Proper relationship of utensil to the
surface burner 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 burners 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 burners because the covers may cause
overheating. Airwill be blocked from the burner and
cause combustion problems.

FOR GLASS COOKTOPS ONLY

• Do not clean or operate a 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 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 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 or warmer drawer (if

equipped)—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/ warmerdrawer.

• Keep oven vent ducts unobstructed. The oven vent is

located at the rear 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 the oven vent. These items could melt or ignite.

Important Safety Instructions

• Placement of oven/warmer drawer {if equipped) racks.
Always place oven racks In desired location while oven/
warmer drawer (if equipped) is 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 oven/warmer drawer (if equipped).
Remove all utensils from the rack before moving.

• Do not use the broiler pan without its insert. The

broiler pan and its insert allow dripping fat to drain and be
kept away from the high heat of the broiler.

• Do not cover the broiler insert 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.

IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR CLEANING

YOUR RANGE

• Clean the range regularly to keep all parts free of
grease that could catch fire. Exhaust fan ventilation

hoods and grease filters should be kept clean. Do not
allow grease to accumulate on hood or filter. Greasy
deposits in the fan could catch fire. When you are flaming
food underthe hood, turn the fan on. Refer to the hood

manufacturer’s instructions for cleaning.

SELF CLEANING OVENS

• in the self-Cleaning cycle only clean the parts listed in
this Use and Care Guide. Before self cleaning the oven,

remove the broiler pan and any utensils or foods from the
oven.

• 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.

• Do not clean door gasket—The door gasket is essential
fora good seal. Care should be taken not to rub, damage
or move the gasket.

• Remove oven racks. Oven racks color will change if left
in the oven during a self-cleaning cycle.

Assembly of the Surface Burner Heads, Burner Caps and Burner Grates

It is very important to make sure that all of the Surface Burner Heads, Surface Burner Caps and Surface Burner Grates
are installed correctly and at the correct locations.

1. Be sure to follow the Installation Instructions before
installing and using your new range.

2. Remove all packing tape from cooktop. Remove Burner
Caps and Burner Heads (See Figure 1).

3. Discard all packing material located under all Burner

Heads (if applicable).

4. To replace Burner Heads & Caps, match the letters
located under center of Burner Caps with the letters
located inside Burner Head (only positions A & F are
marked with letters - See Figure 2). Place all Burner

Heads & Caps on the cooktop (See Figure 1) while

carefully aligning the Electrodes into slots or holes of the

Burner Heads (Figure 4). Note: The Burner Heads should

sit flat on Cooktop Burner Skirts.

5. Replace Bridge Burner Caps. These include one Bridge

Burner Center Cap (rectangular shaped) and the two

Bridge Burner End Caps (The Bridge Burner End Caps
will fit either the front or rear Bridge Burner Head loca
tions). Make sure that the tabs located under the Bridge

Burner Caps fall into the slots located in the Bridge

Burner Head (See arrows in Figure 3) and that all the

Bridge Burner Caps lie flat and evenly on the Bridge

Burner Head.

6. Unpack Burner Grates. NOTE: Do not force End Burner
Grates down on cooktop. Be careful to line up the 2 Grate

Pins located on each of the 2 End Burner Grates into the
Pilot holes located on top of the Burner Caps (See Figure

5). Position Burner Grates on cooktop and check that all
the Burner Grate legs lie on the glass surface.

7. Place Center Burner Grate between the end Burner
Grates.

REMEMBER — DO NOT ALLOW SPILLS, FOOD,

CLEANING AGENTS OR ANY OTHER MATERIAL TO
ENTER THE GAS ORIFICE HOLDER OPENING. Always

keep the Burner Caps and Burner Heads in place whenever
the surface burners are in use.

Figure 5

Locations of the Gas Surface Burners (See Figure 6)

The SIMMER burner is best used for simmering delicate
sauces, etc. This burner is located at the right rear burner
position on the cooktop.

The STANDARD sized burner are used for most surface
cooking needs. These burners are located at the left front
and left rear positions on the cooktop.

The POWER burner is best used for bringing large
quantities of liquid rapidly up to temperature or when
preparing larger quantities of food. This burner is located at
the right front position on the cooktop.

The BRIDGE burner is best suited when using rectangular
or long shaped cookware. The left rear and left middle are
combined and controlled by the same control knob. The left
front burner may also be added for a total of 3 burners.

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.

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 four
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.

Figure 1

Proper

flame size

*F!ame Size

High Flame
Medium Flame
Low Flame

*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 yellow­orange.
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.

Type of Cooking

Start most foods: bring water to a boil: pan broiling.
Maintain a slow boil; thicken sauces, gravies; steaming.
Keep foods cooking: poach: stewing.

selected surface Burner will life.

3. Visually check that the left rear Burner has lit.

4. Continue to rotate the gas control knob counterclockwise past the first LO
setting to the arrow marked BRIDGE.

5. Visually check that both the left rear and left center Burners are lit.

6. When both burners are lit, continue to turn the control knob
counterclockwise to adjust to the desired flame size for both burners
together. Note: The markings between the 2nd HI and LO settings on the left

rear control knob adjust the flame size for both burners. Use the guide marks
between the 2nd HI and LO settings and adjust the flame size as needed
(Refer to Figure 3).

7. Add the left front Burner if needed. Once lit, visually adjust the flame size of
the left front Burner to match the flame size of the Bridge Burner.

8. Place cooking utensil centered over the left-hand cooktop surface Burner
Grate. DO NOT cook with any of the surface control knobs in the LITE
position (The electronic ignitor will continue to spark if the knob is left in the

LITE position).
Note: If only the left rear surface Burner is needed, follow the instructions
provided below.

Figure 1

Operating only the Left rear Gas Surface Burner

1. Place cooking utensil centered over the left-rear surface Burner Grate.

the bottom of the
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.

CORRECT INCORRECT

» Curved and warped pan bottoms.

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 material that

conducts heat well.
Easy to clean.

Pan overhangs bumergrate by
more than 2.5 cm (1”).

Heavy handle tilts pan.

Flame extends beyond pan.

Note: Always use a utensil for its intended

purpose. Follow manufacturer's instructions.

Some utensils were not made to be used in
the oven oron the cooktop.

Using a wok

Woks with flat bottoms suitable for use

on your cooktop are available in most
cookshop or hardware stores. Round­bottomed woks (with a support ring
that does not extend beyond the
burner circumference) 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).

Wire trivets: Do not use wire trivets.

Cookware bottoms must be in direct
contact with the grates.

Figure 2

Specialty pans such as lobster pots, griddles and pressure cookers may be
used but must conform to the above recommended cookware requirements.

DO NOT use a wok if it is equipped with
a metal ring that extends beyond the

burner circumference. Because this

ring traps heat, the surface unit and
cooktop surface could be damaged.

Surface Cooking

Care & Seasoning of the Griddle

Before first use:

• Wash Griddle in hot soapy water. Rinse and then dry completely.

• Apply a thin coat of vegetable oil to the entire surface (front and back of griddle).

• Preheat your oven to 350°F. Place the griddle on the upper rack in your oven.

• Bake griddle for 1 hour at 350°F, then turn oven OFF and let cool before remov

ing.

• The surface may appear to have a tacky feel to it from the seasoning process. If

desired, wash the griddle in hot soapy water, rinse well, and dry completely.

After each use:

•To prevent rusting, store in a dry place and keep uncovered.

• After each use, clean with a stiff brush and hot water only.

• DO NOT CLEAN GRIDDLE IN DISHWASHER.

• Dry Immediately and apply a light coating of vegetable oil to griddle before

storing.

Using the Griddle:

• Place either side of the griddle centered over the left side gas burners or over

the Bridge Burner. For location refer to Figure 1.

• Preheat the griddle for 5 minutes on medium to medium low setting. Slow

preheat ensures even heat distribution during the cooking process.

• DO NOT preheat the griddle on HI setting. Preheating on HI may warp the

griddle and prevent even heat distribution.

Oven Baking Information

For best results, preheat the oven before baking cookies, breads, cakes, pies or pastries, etc. There is no need to
preheat the oven for roasting meat or baking casseroles.

The cooking times and temperatures needed to bake a product may vary slightly from your previously owned
appliance. Referto “Adjusting the Oven Temperature” section.

Setting Oven Controls (confd)

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 300“ F (149“
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, more evenly and at
lower temperatures than conventional bake.

General Convection Bake Instructions

1. Convection Bake 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. The oven control automatically reduces the convection bake temperature
called for in a conventional bake recipe.

3. Preheating is not necessary when cooking casseroles with Convection Bake.

4. 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

4.

5. Cakes have better results when baked using the Food Categories CAKES pad.

Benefits of Convection Bake:

—Some foods cook up to 30%

faster, saving time and energy.
—Multiple rack baking.
—No special pans or bakeware

needed.

period. The low setting is best for cooking foods from a 8 to 9 hour time period. The maximum cook time for the Slow
Cook feature is 12 hours unless the oven control has been changed to the Continuous Bake mode. This feature may be
used with the additional settings of a Timed Bake or a Delayed Start (Delayed Timed Bake).

Some tips you should review for best possible results using Slow Cook feature:

Completely thaw all frozen foods before cooking with the Slow Cook.

When using a single rack, place in position 2 or 3 (see page 12).

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.
Roasts may be left uncovered so browning can occur. Cook times will vary; depending on the weight, fat content,
bone & the shape of the roast.
Use the recipe’s recommended food temperature and a food thermometer to determine when the food is done.
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.

The MEATS CAKES (CA^and BREADS ^REA^ pads in the Food Categories feature are used when
cooking certain food items. These pads have been designed to give optimum cook performance for the foods selected

in each category.

The MEATS pad combines a cook cycle with the convection fan and element to roast meats and poultry. Preheating is

not necessary for meats and poultry. Heated air circulates around the food from all sides, sealing in juices and flavors.
Foods are crispy brown on the outside while staying moist on the inside.

The CAKES pad provides a preheat with a gentle cycling of heat giving cakes more volume and allowing delicate foods
to cook more evenly.

The BREADS pad adds a preheat feature to the bake cycle to thoroughly heat the oven from top to bottom to give more

evenly browned foods. Refer to (Figure 4) for foods to cook in each category.

Setting Warmer Drawer Controls

Arranging Warmer (Warm & Ready^“) Drawer Rack Positions

The rack can be used in 2 ways:

• In the upright position to allow low profile food items to be placed both under and on top of the rack (for example,
rolls or biscuits on top of the rack and a casserole dish underneath).

• In the downward position to allow you to place light weight food items and empty dishware (for example, rolls or
pastries and dinner plates) on the rack.

Set the Warmer Drawer Rack in either position as shown below (Figure 1).

Operating the Warmer Drawer

The purpose of the Warmer Drawer is to keep hot cooked foods at serving temperature. Always start with hot food. It is

not recommended to heat cold food in the Warmer Drawer. All food placed in the Warmer Drawer should be covered
with a lid or aluminum foil to maintain quality. Do not use plastic wrap to cover food. Plastic may melt onto the
drawer and be very difficult to clean. Use only utensils and cookware recommended for oven use in the Warmer

Drawer.

ik CAUTION

I Always use potholders or oven mitts when removing food from the Warmer Drawer as cookware and

plates will be hot and you can be burned.

Warmer Drawer Food Temperature Settings

Use the recommended settings in the Warmer Drawer settings table. If a

particular food is not listed, start with the MED setting. If more crispness

is desired, remove the lid or aluminum foil from the food. Most foods can

be kept at serving temperatures on the MED setting. When a
combination of foods are to be kept warm (for instance, meat with 2
vegetables and rolls), use the HI setting. To avoid heat loss, do not
open the Warmer Drawer repeatedly while in use.

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.

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

PLEASE NOTE: The Bridge Burner Head is not removable.

Do not remove any parts from the cooktop until they have completely

cooled and are safe to handle. Do not operate the surface Burners without
the Burner Caps and Burner Heads properly in place.

To Clean the surface Burner Caps and Burner Heads- Use a soap-filled

scouring pad or a mild abrasive cleanser to clean the surface Burner Caps and

Burner Heads. The ports (or slots) around the Burner Heads must be routinely
cleaned. If residue still remains in these ports, use a small-gauge wire or
needle to clean the slots or holes. 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 ORIFICE HOLDER OPENING.
ALWAYS keep the surface Burner Caps and Burner Heads in place whenever

the gas Burners are in use.

To Clean the Burner Grates- The Burner Grates are dishwasher safe and may
be cleaned in the dishwasher. Remove any excessive soils before placing in
the dishwasher.

General Care & Cleaning (confd)

Ceramic Glass Cooktop Cleaning and Maintenance

: Consistent and proper cleaning is essentm! to maintaining your ceramic glass cooktop- i

Prior to using your cooktop for the first time, apply the recommended CookTop® Cleaning Creme to the ceramic surface
(on the web visit www.sears.com for replacement cooktop cleaner, item number 40079). Buff with a non-abrasive cloth or
no-scratch cleaning 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 markings 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,

because they may cause it to crack.

Cleaning Recommendations for the Ceramic Glass Cooktop

A CAUTION

A WARNING I DO NOT use a cooktop cleaner on a hot cooktop. The fumes can be hazardous to your health, and can

chemically damage the ceramic-glass surface.

For light to moderate soil;

Apply a few drops of CookTop® Cleaning Creme directly to the cooktop. Use a paper towel or use a non-abrasive plastic
type no-scratch cleaning pad to clean the entire cooktop surface. Make sure the cooktop is cleaned thoroughly, leaving no

residue.

For heavy, burned on soil:

Apply a few drops of CookTop® Cleaning Creme directly to the soiled area. Rub the soiled area using a non-abrasive

plastic type no-scratch cleaning pad, applying pressure as needed. Do not use the pad you use to clean the cooktop for

any other purpose.

Before cleaning the cooktop, be sure the controls are turned to OFF and the cooktop is COOL.

If soils remain, carefully scrape soils with a metal

Hi

razor blade scraper, holding scraper at a 30 degree
angle to the surface. Remove loosened soils with
cooktop cleaning cream and buff surface clean.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Damage to the ceramic glass
cooktop may occur if you use an abrasive type
scratch pad. Only use cleaning products that have
been specifically designed for ceramic glass cooktop.

I

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.

Care and Cleaning of Stainless Steel (Stainless steel models only)

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.

• 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.

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 breaking, fusing to, or marking it.
