TOOLS NEEDED:

Bracket attaches to floor or wall to hold either right or left

rear leg leveler. If fastmling to floor, be sure that screws
do not penetrate electrical wiring or plumbing. If this
cannot be determined, use shorter screws that will not

penetrate through flooring.

If the bracket came with your range, it is shipped at-
tached to the lower range back° Remove and discard
the shipping screw that holds the bracket and then

follow instructions below.

1. Decide whether the bracket will be installed on the

right or left side of range location.

2. if the bracket side of the range is adjacent to a
cabinet, place the bracket against back wall and

cabinet as shown In Figure 1.
If there is no adjacent cabinet, determine where the

location of the range side (painted outside panel) will
be. Place the bracket with its outside edge at this
location and against back wallo See Figure 1.

3. Determine whether you will anchor the bracket to the

floor or wall, Fasten the bracket securely with the
screws provided. Screws are self-drilling in wood,

plywood, particle and chip board, and most metal
framing° Ifattaching to masonry you can buy suitable
screws and anchors at hardware stores. Use a
masonry drill to drill the required holes.

4. Using the wrench, back out the four leg levelers at

least two turns. See your installation guide for more
leveling information before positioning range.

5. Slide the range into place. Be sure rear leg leveler

fully engages slot in bracket. If range cannot be
moved back far enough for rear leg leveler to enter
bracket, move bracket forward as required and attach
to floor in new location°

QUESTMON$ & ANSWERS

Q, _ay _ can foods and preserves on my surface

u_its?

Ao Yes, but only use cookware designed for canning

purposes° Check the manufacturer's instructions
and recipes for preserving foods. Be sure canner is
flat-bottomed and fits over the center of your surface
unit, Since canning generates large amounts of
steam, be careful to avoid burns from steam or' heat.
Canning should only be done on surface units.

Q, CaN _ cove_" my drip pans with foil?
A. No. Clean as recommended in Cleaning Guide.

Q. Can t] use speciaH cooking equipment, like an

oriental wok, on any surface units?

A. We recommend flat bottomed woks. Cookware with_

out flat surfaces is not recommended. The life of
your surface unit can be shortened and the range top

can be damaged from the high heat needed for this
type of cooking_

Qo Why am II not getting the heat I_need from my

units even though l] have the knobs on the
right setting?

A_ After turning surface unit off and making sure it is

cool, check to make sure that your plug-in units are
securely fastened into the surface connection_

Q. Why does my cookware tilt when iiplace them

on the surface unit?

A. Because the surface unit or the cookware is not flat.

Make sure that the "feet" on your surface units are
sitting tightly In the range top indentation and the
outer edge of the drip pan isflat on t he range surface.

Q, Why is _he porcelain finish on my cookware

coming off?

A. if you set your' surface unit higher than required for

the cookware material and leave it, the finish may
smoke, crack, pop or burn, depending on the pot or

pan_ Also, atoo high heat for long periods, and small
amounts of dry food, may damage the finish.

C N!]ING THP$

Canning shoulld be done on cooktop only,

in surface cooking of foods other than canning, the use

of large-diameter pots (extending more than 1" beyond
edge of drip pan) is not recommended. However, when
canning with water-bath or pressure canner, large-di-
ameter pots may be used. This is because boiling water
temperatures (even under pressure) are not harmful to
cooktop surfaces surrounding heating unit.

HOWEVER_ DO HOT USE LARGE DBAMETER
CA1NIHERS CR OTHER LARGE DtlAMETER POTS
FOR FRYING OR BOmLING FOODS OTHER THAN

WATER.

Most syrup or sauce mixtures _ and all types of frying

--cook at temperatures much higherthan boiling water°
Such temperatures could eventually harm cooktop sur-

faces surrounding heating units°

OBSERVE FOILLOWItlRG PO tNTS
CAI , F IBNG

1o Bring water to boil on HIGH heat, then after boiling

has begun, adjust heat to lowest setting to maintain
boil (saves energy and best uses surface unit).

2. Be sure canner fits over center of surface unit. If your
_ange does not allow canner' to be centered on

surface unit, use smatter-diameter pots for good
canning results.

3_

4.

11

Flat-bottomed canners give best canning results. Be

sure bottom of canner is flat or slight indentation fits
snugly over surface unit. Canners with flanged or

rippled bottoms (often found in enamelware) are not
recommended.

RIGHT

!

WRONG

When canning, use recipes from reputable sources.
Reliable recipes are available from the manufacturer

of your canner; manufacturers of glass jars for can-

ning, such as Ball and Kerr; and the United States
Department of Agriculture Extension Service.

5o Remember, in following the recipes, that canning is

a process that generates large amounts of steam. Be
careful while canning to prevent burns from steam or

heat.

NOTE= If your range is being operated on low power

(voltage), canning may take longer than expected,

even though directions have been carefully fol-

lowed. The process may be improved by:

(1) using a pressure canner, and
(2) for fastest heating of large water quantities,

begin with HOT tap water.

NEMTC06_I

OVIH COOKING

When cooking a food for the first time in your new
oven, use time given on recipes as a guide.

Your new oven has been set correctly at the factory
and is more apt to be accurate than the oven it

replaced.

After you have used your oven for awhile, if you feet
your oven should be hotter or cooler, you can adjust

it yourself. See THERMOSTAT ADJUSTMENTS
in this manual.

• Always follow recipe carefully°

- Measure ingredients properly.

- Useproper pan placement.

• Place pans on the oven racks with 1" to 1 1/2" of air
space on all sides of each pan._ Avoid overcrowding
the oven°

Pans too close to each other, to oven walls or to the
oven bottom block the free movement of air. Im-

proper air movement causes uneven browning and
cooking.

Do not lock the oven lock/unlock handle while

baking or broiling. The oven lock/unlock handle

is used for self-clean only.
Cakes, cookies, muffins, and quick breads should

be baked in shiny pans -- to reflect the heat m

because they should have a light golden crust,
Yeast breads and pie crusts should be baked in
glass or dull (non-shiny) pans --to absorb the heat

-- because they should have a brown, crisp crust,
Be sure the underside of the pan is shiny, too.

Darkened undersides will absorb the heat and may

cause over-browning on the bottom of your food.

2 cake layers

4 cake layers

When baking several items stagger pans so that no

pan is directly above another.
Let the oven preheat thoroughly before cooking

baked products. Listen for preheat notification tone

and put the food in the oven°

Opening the door too often to check food during
baking will allow heat loss and may cause poor

baking results.

Oven temperatures should be reduced 25 degrees
below recommended temperatures ifexterior of pan

is predarkened, darkened by age or oven proof
glass.

There may be some odor when the oven is first used,

This is caused by the heating of new parts and
insulation.

Do not cover an entire oven rack with foil. The foil
can block normal heat flow and cause poor baking
results. Do not place any foil directly abovethe bake

element. Foil used on the oven bottom under the
element may damage the oven surface; therefore, it

should not be used.
Cookies should be baked on flat cookie sheets

without sides to allow the air to circulate properly.
When recipes require preheating, have food nearby

before you open the oven door, If the oven door is
allowed to remain open for more than a brief time,
the preheat temperature will be lost.

B OIL ]HG

Most foods can be broiled at the HI Broil Setting.. Select
the LO Broil setting to avoid excessive browning or'
drying of foods that should be cooked to the well-done
stage (such as thick pork chops or poultry).

BROBLING T PS

Please note:

Your oven door should be open to the broil

stop position while broiling, llf the door is

c_osed, the food wiU roast and not broil.

• Use only the broiler pan and grid that came with your
range for broiling. They are designed for proper
drainage of fat and liquids and help prevent spatter,
smoke or fire.

, Do not preheat when broiling. For'even broiling

on both sides, start the food on a cold pan.

• Trim the outer layer of fat from steaks and chops° Slit
the fatty edges to keep the meat from curling.

• For maximum juiciness, salt the first side just before
turning the meat. Salt the second side just before

serving.

, Brush chicken and fish with butter several times as

they broil° When broiling fish, grease the grid to

prevent sticking and broil with stdn side down. It is
not necessary to turn fish.

• Never leave a soiled broiler pan in the range.

Grease in the pan may smoke or burn the next time

the oven is used.

• Be sure you know the correct procedure for putting
out a grease fire. See the section on safety.

Do not cover the entire broiler
grid with foil (mold foil tighUy

to grid and cut slits in foil to
align with slits in the grid).

Poor drainage of hot fat may
cause a broilier fire.

_lf a fire starts, close the oven
doe_' and turn controls off. if

fire continues, throw baking

soda on the fire. Do not put
water on the fire.

PO$ IT ONmlRG BROItLER PAN

Broiling is cooking by direct heat from the broil element.

Tender cuts of meat or marinated meat should be se-
lected for broiling. For best results steaks and chops

should be at least 3/4" thick.
After placing food on the broiler pan, put the pan on an

oven rack in the proper position. The recommended
rack position and cooking time can be found in the chart
below°

The closer the food is to the broil element, the faster the
meat browns on the outside, yet stays red to pink In the
center. Moving the meat farther away from the element

lets the meat cook to the center while browning outside.
Side one should be cooked 1 - 2 minutes longer than

side two.

LF- LEAH CYCLE

BEFORE A CLEAN CYCLE

1o Removethebroil pan and grid, oven racks,all utensils

and any foil that may be in the oven. Do not try to
clean utensils or any other objects in the oven during
a self-clean cycle. If oven racks are left in the

range during a clean cycle, they wii! darken,

lose their Uuster and become hard to slide, If
you choose to leave the racks in the oven, you can
polish the edges of the racks with steel wool and
apply a small amount of vegetable oil to the rack
edges after the self-clean cycle. This will make the

racks easier to slide.

2_ Soil on the oven front frame, under the front edge of

the cooktop, the door liner outside the door gasket
and the front edge ofthe oven cavity (about I" into the

oven) will not be cleaned during a clean cycle (see
illustration below)_ Clean these areas by hand before

starting a clean cycle.

Use hot water with a soap-filled steel wool pad. We

recommend a cleanser such as 'Soft Scrub®' brand
or a similar cleaning product to keep white surfaces

looking clean and new. After cleaning, rinse well with
a vinegar and water mixture° This will help prevent a
brown residue from forming when the oven is heated.

Buff these areas dry with a dry cloth.

FRONT FRAME

DOOR LINER

AFTER A CLEAN CYCLE

After a clean cycle, you may notice some white ash inthe
oven. Just wipe it up with a damp cloth,

tf white spots remain, remove them with a soap4illed

steel wool pad_ Be sure to rinse thoroughly with a
vinegar and water mixture. These deposits are usually
a salt residue that cannot be removed by the clean cycle.

if the oven is not clean after one clean cycle, the cycle

may be repeated.

QUESTIONS AND AHSWERS

Q. If my electronic control is not working, can Istill self-

clean my oven?

AmNooYour RANGE CONTROL is used to program the

oven to start and stop the self-cleaning cycle.

O. Can I use commercial oven cleaners on any part of

my self-cleaning oven?

A. No cleaners or coatings should be used on or around

any part of this oven.

Qo Can I clean the woven gasket around the oven door?
A, You cannot clean the woven gasket.

Q. Is it normal to hear "crackling sound" during clean-

ing?

Ao Yes° This is the metal heating and cooling.

Q. Why do I have ash left in my oven after cleaning?
A Some types of soil will leave a deposit, tt can be

removed with a damp sponge or cloth.

Q.

Ao

What should tdo ifexcessive smoking occurs during
cleaning?
This is caused by excessive soil and you should
press CLEAR/OFF. Open windows to rid room of

smoke. Allow the oven to cool for at least one hour
before opening the door_ Wipe up excess soil and
reset the clean cycle.

a_

A.

Should there be any odor during the cleaning?
Yes, there may be an odor during the first few
cleanings. Failure to wipe out excessive soil might
also cause an odor when cleaning.

3. Wipe up heavy spiliovers on the oven bottom. Too

much soil may cause smoking during the clean cycle.

4. Do not rub the door gasket. The fiberglass material

of the gasket has an extremely low resistance to
abrasion. An intact and well fitting oven door gasket
is essential for energy efficient oven operation and
good baking results, if you notice the gasket becoming

worn, frayed or damaged in any way or if it has

become displaced on the door, you should replace

the sealo

THERMOSTAT ADJUSTMENTS

The temperature in your new range has been set cor-
rectly at the factory, so be sure to follow the recipe
temperatures and cooking times the first few times you

bake in your oven.
if you think the oven should be hotter or cooler, you can

adjust it yourself. To decide how much to change the
temperature, set the oven temperature 25°F higher or
lower than the temperature in your recipe, then bake.
The results of this "test" should give you an idea of how
much the temperature should be changed,

To adjust temperature:

1. Push "BAKE" key.

2. Select a temperature between 500°F and 550°F.

3. Immediately, press "BAKE" again and hold the key

for about 4 seconds. The preset oven adjustment will
appear in the temperature display.

4. Thetemperature can be adjusted up to (+) 35°F hotter
or (-) 35°F cooler. Use the up or down keys to select.

5. When you havemadethe adjustment, push the CLEAR/

OFF button to go back to the time of day. Use your
oven as you would normally.

NOTE:'_is adjustment will not affect BroiU or

Cllean temperatures. Kt will be remem-
bered when power' is removed.

We do not recommend the use of inexpensive thermom-
eters, such as those found in grocery stores, to readjust
the temperature ofyour new oven. These thermometers
can vary 20° . 40°F. Your oven has been preset to
maximize cooking efficiency_
