Heating the Room.
• Storage in or on Appliance--Flammable materials should
not be stored in an oven, warmer drawer, broiler
compartment, near surface units or in the storage drawer.
This includes paper, plastic and cloth items, such as
cookbooks, plasticware and towels, as well as flammable
liquids. Do not store explosives, such as aerosol cans, on or
near the range.
• Do Not Leave Children Alone--Children should not be left
alone or unattended in the area where appliance is in use.
They should never be allowed to sit or stand on any part of the
appliance.
• DO NOT TOUCH SURFACE UNITS, AREAS NEAR THESE
UNITS, HEATING ELEMENTS OR INTERIOR SURFACES OF
THE OVEN. Both surface units and oven heating elements
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 touch these areas until they have had sufficient time
to cool. Among these areas are the cooktop, surfaces facing

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
• When heating fat or grease, watch it closely. Fat or grease
may catch fire if allowed to become too hot.
• 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--Buildup of
pressure may cause container to burst and result in injury.
• Remove the oven door from any unused range if it is to be
stored or discarded.
IMPORTANT--Do not attempt to operate the range during a

YOUR COO/4'TOP
• Know which knob controls each surface heating unit.
Place a pan of food on the unit before turning it on, and turn
the unit off before removing the pan.
• 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 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 element
will also improve efficiency.
• Utensil Handles Should Be Turned Inward and Not Extend
Over Adjacent Surface Units--To reduce the risk of bums,
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 units.
• 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.
• Do Not Immerse or Soak Removable Heating Elements--
Heating elements should never be immersed in water. Heating
elements clean themselves during normal operation.
• 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.
• Protective Liners--Do not use aluminum foil to line surface
unit drip bowls, reflector pans, or oven bottom, or any other
part of the range. Only use aluminum foil as recommended in
this manual, improper installation of these liners may result in
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 cooktop service without breaking due to the sudden
change in temperature. Check the manufacturer's
recommendations for cooktop use.
• When flaming foods under a ventilating hood, turn the fan

YOUR OVEN
• Use Care When Opening Oven Door or Warmer Drawer--
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 Oven Vent Ducts Unobstructed. The oven vent is
located under the left rear surface element. 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.
• Placement of Oven Racks. Always place oven racks in
desired location while oven 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.
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.
• Cold temperatures can damage the electronic control. When
using the appliance for the first time, or when the appliance
has not been used for an extended period of time, be certain
the unit has been in temperatures above 32°F (0°C) for at least
3 hours before turning on the power to the appliance
b'tROR_S_'4Hr HS'TRUC'I' OH8 FOR CLEAH HG
YOUR RAHGE
• Clean the range regularly to keep all parts free of grease
that could catch fire. Pay particular attention to the area
underneath each surface element. Do not allow grease to
accumulate.
• Kitchen cleaners and aerosols--Always follow the
manufacturer's recommended directions for use. Be aware
that excess residue from cleaners and aerosols may ignite
causing damage and injury.
• Clean Ventilating Hoods Frequently--Grease should not be
allowed to accumulate on the hood or filter. Follow
manufacturer's instructions for cleaning.
SELF CLEAH HG OVEHS
• Clean in the self-cleaning cycle only the parts listed in this
Owner's 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 for
a good seal. Care should be taken not to rub, damage or
move the gasket.

Oven Cleaning
D D I
During the self-cleaning
cycle, the outside of the range can
become very hot to the touch. DO
NOT leave small children unattended
near the appliance.
The health of some
birds is extremely sensitive to the
fumes given off during the self-
cleaning cycle of any range. Move
birds to another well-ventilated room.
DO NOT line the oven
walls, racks, bottom or any other part
of the range with aluminum foil. Doing
so will destroy heat distribution,
produce poor baking results and cause
)ermanent damage to the oven interior
(aluminum foil will melt to the interior
surface of the oven).
DO NOT force the oven
door open. This can damage the
automatic door locking system. Use
caution when opening the door after
the self-cleaning cycle is completed.

• Allow the oven to cool before precleaning.
• Wear rubber gloves when precleaning and while wiping up the residue
after the self-clean cycle.
• 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.
2. Remove the broiler pan and insert, all utensils and any aluminum
foil. These items cannot withstand high cleaning temperatures.
3. Oven racks may be left in the oven or may be removed. If they go through
the clean cycle their color will turn slightly blue and the finish will be dull.
After the cycle is complete and the oven has cooled, 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 position).
4. Remove any excess 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 cause a dull spot even after cleaning.
5. 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.
