your appliance for the rst 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.

• Use Proper Pan Size—This appliance is equipped with one or more surface units of dierent sizes. Select utensils having at 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 eciency.

• Utensil Handles Should Be Turned Inward and Should Not Extend Over Adjacent Surface Units—To reduce the risk of burns, ignition

of ammable 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 unit.

• Never Leave Surface Units Unattended—

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 used of protective liners or aluminum foil may result in a risk of electric shock or re or a 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 Element

Covers. If an element 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.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

• 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 qualied 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 Door or Warmer

Drawer (if equipped)—Stand to the side of the appliance when opening the door of a hot oven. Let hot air or steam escape before you remove or replace food in the oven/warmer

drawer.

• Keep Oven Vent Ducts Unobstructed. The oven

is vented at the front above the oven door. 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/Warmer Drawer (if

equipped) Racks. Always place oven racks in desired location while oven/drawer (if equipped) is cool. Remove all utensils from the rack before removing rack. 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 oven element or interior of the oven/warmer drawer (if equipped).

• Do not use your broiler pan without its insert.

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

• Do not cover the broiler or warmer drawer (if equipped) 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 o 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 re. Exhaust

fan ventilation hoods and grease lters should be kept clean. Do not allow grease to accumulate. Greasy deposits in the fan could catch re. Refer to the hood manufacturer’s instructions for cleaning.

• Cleaners/aerosols—Always follow the manufacturer’s recommended directions for use. Be aware that excess residue from cleaners and aerosols may ignite causing damage and/ or injury.

SELF-CLEANING OVENS

• Clean in the self-cleaning cycle only the parts

of the oven listed in this owner’s guide. Before self-cleaning the oven, remove all utensils stored

in the oven.

• Do not clean the oven door gasket. The door

gasket is essential for a good seal. Care should be taken not to rub, damage or move the gasket.

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

• Do not use oven cleaners. No oven cleaner or

oven liner protective coating of any kind should be used in or around any part of the oven.

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

About the Ceramic Glass Cooktop

The ceramic cooktop has radiant surface elements located below the surface of the glass. The design of the ceramic cooktop outlines the area of the surface element underneath. Make sure the diameter of the pan matches the diameter of the element outline on the cooktop.

Heat is transferred up through the surface of the cooktop to the cookware. Only at-bottom cookware should be used. The type and size of cookware, the number of surface elements in use and their settings, are all factors that will aect the amount of heat that will spread to areas beyond the surface elements. The areas surrounding the elements may become hot enough to cause burns.

About the Radiant Surface Elements

The element temperature rises gradually and evenly. As the temperature rises, the element will glow red. To maintain the selected setting, the element will cycle on and o. The heating element retains enough heat to provide a uniform and consistent heat during the o cycle. For ecient cooking, turn o the element several minutes before cooking is complete. This will allow residual heat to complete the cooking process.

NOTE: Please read detailed instructions for ceramic glass cooktop cleaning in the General Care & Cleaning

section and Before You Call checklist section of this Use and Care Guide.

NOTE: Radiant elements have a limiter that allows the element to cycle on and o, even at the HI setting. This helps to prevent damage to the ceramic smooth top. Cycling at the HI setting is normal and can occur if the cookware is too small for the radiant element or if the cookware bottom is not at (Refer to Selecting Surface Cooking Cookware section).

NOTE: Due to the high intensity of heat generated by the surface elements, the glass surface will turn green when the element will be turned o. This phenomenon is normal and the glass will come back to its original white color after it has completely cooled down. (White glass cooktops only).

Locations of the Radiant Surface Elements and Controls

Your range is equipped with radiant surface elements with dierent wattage ratings. The ability to heat food quicker and in larger volumes increases as the element wattage

increases.

The radiant surface elements are located on the cooktop as follows:

- Two 6" radiant elements at the right and left rear positions;

- One dual 6" or 9" radiant element at the left front

positions;

- One dual 9” or 12” radiant element at the right front positions;

- One warmer zone element at the center rear position.

Setting Surface Controls

Surface Cooking Settings

Use the chart below to determine the correct setting for the kind of food you are preparing. The Simmer settings are used to simmer and keep larger quantities of foods warm such as stews and soups. The lower Simmer settings are ideal for delicate foods and melting chocolate or butter.

Note: The size and type of cookware used will inuence the setting needed for best cooking results.

Recommended Settings for Surface Elements

To Operate the Single Surface Elements:

1. Place correctly sized cookware on the radiant surface

element.

2. Push in and turn the surface control knob in either

direction to the desired setting (Figure 2).

3. When cooking has completed, turn the surface control

knob to OFF before removing the cookware. Note: The Hot Surface Indicator light will come on when the control knob will be turn on and will continue to glow until the glass cooktop has cooled down to a moderate level. The light may remain on even though the controls

are turned OFF.

Note: See table, for recommended control settings.

Operating Single Radiant Surface Elements

The cooktop has single radiant surface elements at location as shown on gure 1.

Figure 1

Radiant surface elements may appear to have cooled after they have been turned o. A hot surface indicator light will come on and will continue to glow until the glass cooktop has cooled down to a moderate level. The glass surface may still be hot and burns may occur if the glass surface is touched before the indicator light has turned o.

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 wooden spoons could catch re if placed too close to the surface elements.

Figure 2

Important notes:

• Start most cooking operations on a higher setting and then turn to a lower setting to nish cooking.

• For ecient cooking, turn the surface element OFF several minutes before cooking is complete. This will allow residual heat to complete the cooking process.

• A glowing red surface heating area extending beyond the bottom edge of the cookware indicates the cookware is too small for the surface heating area.

• Radiant elements have a limiter that allows the radiant heating element to cycle ON and OFF, even at the Hi setting. This helps prevent damage to the ceramic cooktop. Cycling at the HI setting is normal and will occur more often if the cookware is too small for the radiant element or if the cookware is not at.

Setting Surface Controls

Operating the Dual Surface Radiant Element

Your model is equipped with Dual radiant surface element in the right &left front positions (See Figure 1). Turn the knob clockwise to turn on the DUAL surface element (See Figure

3) and counterclockwise to turn on the SINGLE surface element (See Figure 2). You may switch from either setting at any time during cooking.

Figure 1

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 wooden spoons could catch re if placed too close to the surface elements.

To Operate the Dual Surface Element:

1. Place correctly sized cookware on the dual surface

element.

2. Push in and turn the control knob counterclockwise (See

Figure 2) for smaller cookware or clockwise (See Figure

3) for larger cookware.

3. Turn the knob to adjust the setting if needed. Start most

cooking operations on a higher setting and then turn to a lower setting to nish cooking. Each surface element provides a constant amount of heat at each setting. A glowing red surface heating area extending beyond the bottom edge of the cookware indicates the cookware is too small for the surface heating area.

4. When cooking has completed, turn the surface control

knob to OFF before removing the cookware. Note: The Surface Indicator light will come on when the control knob will be turn on and will continue to glow until the glass cooktop has cooled down to a moderate level. The light may remain on even though the controls are turned

OFF.

Note: See page 8, for recommended control settings.

Setting Surface Controls

Setting Warmer Zone

The purpose of the Warmer Zone is to keep hot cooked foods at serving temperature. Use the Warmer Zone to keep cooked foods hot such as: vegetables, gravies, casseroles, soups, stews, breads, pastries and oven-safe dinner plates. Always start with hot food. It is not recommended to heat cold food on the Warmer Zone. All food placed on the warmer zone should be covered with a lid to maintain quality. For best results, when warming pastries or breads, the cover should have an opening to allow moisture to escape. Do not use plastic wrap or aluminum foil to cover

food. Plastic or aluminum may melt onto the surface.

Use only plates, utensils and cookware recommended for oven and cooktop use on the Warmer Zone.

Warmer Zone Temperature Selection

Refer to the Warmer Zone table for recommended heating levels (Figure 1). If a particular food is not listed, start with the medium level, and adjust as needed. Most foods can be kept at serving temperatures by using the medium level.

To Set the Warmer Zone Control:

NOTE: The controls and indicator light are located on the

control panel.

1. Touch the ON/OFF pad at the Warmer Zone control position. The Warmer Zone indicator light will ash. Note: If no further pads are touched within 25 seconds the request to power the Warmer Zone ON will clear.

2. At the Warmer Zone controls position touch Hi once to turn ON the power level for HI (see Figure 2) or Lo to turn ON the power level for LO (see Figure 5). The Warmer Zone Indicator light located at the right of the ON/OFF pad will turn on steady and the Hot Surface indicator light will turn ON when the Warmer Zone becomes hot.

3. Each touch Hi or Lo will increase or decrease the power levels. The Warmer Zone has 5 power levels from Hi (see

Figure 2) through Med (see Figure 4) to Lo (see Figure 5).

The power level may be adjusted at any time while the Warmer Zone is ON.

4. When it is time to serve the food, touch the ON/OFF pad once to turn the Warmer Zone OFF. The Warmer Zone

indicator light will turn OFF (see Figure 3).

Note: The Hot Surface indicator light will remain ON if the cooktop is still hot and will remain ON until the heating surface area has cooled suciently.

Figure 5

The Warmer Zone will not glow red when it is hot, but becomes hot enough to cause burns. Avoid placing hands on or near the Warmer Zone until the Warmer Zone Hot Surface indicator light is OFF. Always use potholders or oven mitts when removing food from the warmer zone as cookware and plates will be hot.

Do not place aluminum foil or 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 wooden spoons could catch re if placed too close to the surface elements or burners.

Surface Cooking

Selecting Surface Cooking Cookware

Cookware should have at bottoms that make good contact with the entire surface heating element. Check for atness by rotating a ruler across 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 inuence the setting needed for best cooking results.

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 discolours 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.

CORRECT

• Flat bottom and straight

sides.

• Tight ttings 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 a material that

conducts heat well.

• Easy to clean.

• Always match pot diameter to element surface diameter.

Figure 1

GLASS - Slow heat conductor. Not recommended for ceramic

cooktop surfaces because it may scratch the glass.

INCORRECT

• Curved and warped pan bottoms.

• Pan overhangs element by more than one-half

inch.

• Pan is smaller then element.

• Heavy handle tilts pan.

Figure 2

Before Setting Oven Controls

This range has a fan that will turn “ON” and “OFF” by itself to keep the electronics cool. It may continue

to run after the range has been turned “OFF”, but may also stop immediately and then turn “ON” after a while.

Oven Vent Location

The oven vent is located at right side of the front panel

and visible when the oven door is open. When the oven

is on, hot air is released through the vents. This venting is

necessary for proper air circulation in the oven and good baking results.

Removing and Replacing Oven Racks

To remove, pull the rack forward until it stops. Lift up front

of rack and slide out. To replace, t the rack onto the guides on the oven walls. Tilt the front of the rack upward and slide the rack back into place.

Setting Oven Controls

Setting Convection Bake

Convection baking uses a fan to circulate the oven’s heat evenly and continuously within the oven. This improved heat distribution allows for even cooking and browning results. Multiple racks cooking may slightly increase cook times for some foods, but the overall result is time saved.

The Conv Bake feature should ONLY be used when your recipe instructions have been written for use with convection baking.

If your recipe instructions are for normal baking and you wish to use convection bake, follow the Convection Convert option instructions. The convection convert option will automatically adjust the oven temperature so that convection baking may provide the best possible result.

The following temperature settings apply to the conv bake feature:

• Auto-suggest (default setting): 350°F / 177°C.

• Min. bake setting: 170°F / 77°C.

• Max. bake setting: 550°F / 288°C.

To set the Convection Bake

See example below to set conv bake to start immediately at 375°.

1. Arrange interior oven racks and place food in oven.

2. Press Conv Bake. If default temperature (350°F) is needed, press Start.

3. Press 3, 7, 5.

4. Press Start.

Conv Bake may be set with the following option:

• Conv Convert

• Cook Time and / or Delay Start

Benets of Convection Bake

• Multiple rack baking.

• No special pans or bakeware needed.

For best results

• 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 nish will cook faster.

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

• 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.

The actual oven temperature will be displayed. “CONV BAKE” will stop ashing and the fan icon will appear in the display.

Press Stop to stop Convection Bake or cancel Convection Bake at any time.

Note

The convection fan will start AS SOON AS the oven is set for Convection Bake. The display will show an icon of rotating fan within a square. This rotating fan icon indicates when the Convection Fan is operating. The Bake, Broil and Convection elements will cycle for a better heat distribution.

Setting Convection Roast

This method of cooking enables you to obtain the best results when roasting. Remember to use tested recipes with times adjusted for convection roasting when using the convection mode. 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.

Conv Bake may be set with the following option:

• Cook Time and / or Delay Start

The following temperature settings apply to the conv bake feature:

• Auto-suggest (default setting): 350°F / 177°C.

• Min. bake setting: 170°F / 77°C.

• Max. bake setting: 550°F / 288°C.

Benets of Convection Bake

• Multiple rack baking.

• No special pans or bakeware needed.

For best results

• Preheating is not necessary for most meats and poultry.

• Be sure to carefully follow your recipe's temperature and time recommendations.

• Do not cover foods when dry roasting - this will prevent the meat from browning properly.

• Since Conv Roast cooks food faster, reduce the cook time by 25% from the recommended cook time of your recipe (check the food at this time). If necessary, increase cook time until the desired doneness is obtained.

To set the Convection Roast

See example below to set conv roast to start immediately at 375°.

set properly, this feature is designed to display the actual converted (reduced) temperature in the display. Convection Convert may ONLY be used with a Conv Bake, Timed Conv Bake or a Delay Start (Delayed Timed Conv Bake) setting. When used with a Timed Bake or a Delay Start (Delayed Timed Bake) setting, the Convection Convert will display a “CF” for check food when the bake time is 75% complete. At this time the oven control will sound 3 long beeps at regular intervals until baking had nished. When the bake time has completely nished the control will display “End” and will sound 3 long beeps every 30 seconds

until the Stop pad is pressed.

To change from a normal bake recipe to a convection bake recipe (example: changing a 400°F normal bake recipe to a convection bake recipe)

When the conv bake mode is on at 400°F, press Conv Convert. “CONV BAKE” and the oven temperature adjustment will appear briey in the display (for this

example it is 375°F). A beep will sound once the adjusted oven temperature is reached. The display will show “375°”, “CONV BAKE” and the fan icon.

NOTE: When using a Cook Time, the convection convert will not operate if you have a timed bake under 20 minutes.

For best results

• Use the recommended pans and oven rack positions for the type of meat being prepared.

• For optimum browning results, allow the oven to preheat 5-6 minutes before placing the food in the oven.

• Do not use the broiler pan without the insert.

• Do not cover the broil pan/insert with aluminum foil; the exposed grease could ignite.

• To prevent food from contacting the broil element and to prevent grease splattering, do not use the roasting rack when broiling.

Should an oven re occur, leave the oven door closed and turn o the oven. If the re continues, throw baking soda on the re or use a re extinguisher. DO NOT put water or our on the re. Flour may be explosive and water can cause a grease re to spread and cause personal injury.

Broiler Pan and Insert (Available with some models)

The broiler pan and the insert allows grease to drain and be kept away from the high heat of the broiler. DO NOT use the pan without the insert. DO NOT cover the insert with foil; the exposed grease could ignite.

Broiler Clean-Up Tips (some models):

• To make cleaning easier, line the 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 o grease. Soak the pan in HOT, soapy water.

• Clean the broiler pan as soon as possible after each use. If necessary, use soap-lled steel wool pads. Heavy scouring may scratch the grid.

Remember that the oven control will no longer beep or display any further changes once the oven is set for the Sabbath feature.

Should you experience a power failure or interruption, the oven will shut o. When power is returned the oven will not turn back on automatically. If your food was nearly fully cooked, you may allow the trapped heat in the oven to nish the cooking process. Otherwise, you should remove the food when the power failure occurs, because you may only start the oven once during the Sabbath/Jewish Holidays. After the Sabbath observance turn OFF the Sabbath feature and the oven may be used with all normal functions.

For further assistance, guidelines for proper usage, and a complete list of models with the Sabbath feature, please visit the web at http:\\www.star-k.org.

Adjusting Oven Temperature

The temperature in the oven has been pre-set at the factory. When rst using the oven, be sure to follow recipe times and temperatures. If you think the oven is cooking too hot or too cool for the temperature you select, you can adjust the actual oven temperature to be more or less than what is displayed. Before adjusting, test a recipe by using a temperature setting that is higher or lower than the recommended temperature. The baking results should help you to decide how much of an adjustment is needed.

To adjust the oven temperature higher

See below example to increase the oven temperature by

30°F

1. Press Bake for 6 seconds.

2. Press 3 0. The temperature may be increased as much

as 35°F (19°C).

3. Press Start to accept the temperature change and the display will return to the time of day. Press Stop to reject the change if necessary.

To adjust the oven temperature lower

See below example to decrease the oven temperature by

30°F

1. Press Bake for 6 seconds.

2. Press 3 0 and then press Clean. The temperature may be

decreased as much as 35°F (19°C).

3. Press Start to accept the temperature change and the display will return to the time of day. Press Stop to reject the change if necessary.

Note: The oven temperature adjustments are permanent and will stay forever in the unit memory unless you manually change it again. Even a power outage will not reset these changes. Follow the same procedure again if you wish to change it to a dierent setting.

Self-Cleaning Cycle

Before Starting Self-Clean

A self-cleaning oven cleans itself with high temperatures that are well above those used for normal cooking. The high cleaning temperature eliminates soils completely or reduces them to a ne powdered ash that you can later easily wipe away with a damp cloth.

Adhere to the following precautions when running the selfclean cycle:

• Allow the oven to cool before cleaning.

• Wear rubber gloves when cleaning any exterior parts of the oven manually.

• Do not use commercial oven cleaners or oven protective

coatings in or around the oven interior.

• 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.

-Fig. 1-

• Do not use any cleaning materials on the door gasket. Leaving chemical residue can damage the door gasket.

• Do not force the oven door open. The automatic door locking system can be damaged.

• Remove all utensils and any aluminum foil from the oven. These items cannot withstand high cleaning temperatures.

• Oven racks may be left in the oven or may be removed. If they go through the clean cycle, their color will turn slightly dull. After the cycle is completed 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.

• Remove any excessive spillovers in the oven cavity before starting a self-clean cycle. To clean, use hot, soapy water and a cloth. Large spillovers can cause heavy smoke or re when subjected to high temperatures.

• 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 with soap and water. These areas heat suciently to burn soil on.

• Do not allow food spills with a high sugar or acid content (such as milk, tomatoes, sauerkraut, fruit juices or pie lling) to remain on the porcelain surface, they may leave a dull spot even after cleaning.

During the self-clean cycle, the outside of the appliance can become very hot to the touch. DO NOT leave small children unattended near the appliance.

• DO NOT line the oven walls, oven racks, bottom or any other part of the appliance with aluminum foil. Doing so will stop heat distribution, produce poor baking results and cause permanent 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-clean cycle is nished. The oven may still be VERY HOT.

• Before cleaning any part of the oven, be sure the

electronic oven control is turned o or else push

CANCEL pad. Wait until the oven is cool.

• The health of some birds is extremely sensitive to the fumes given o during the self-cleaning cycle of any appliance. Move birds to another well-ventilated room.

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 ame 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.

Self-Cleaning Cycle

Self-Clean Time Length

* For satisfactory results, use a 2 hour Self-Clean cycle for light soils and a 3 hour cycle for average or a 4 hour cycle for heavy soils.

If you are planning to use the oven directly after a self-clean cycle remember to allow time for the oven to cool down and the oven door to unlock. This normally takes about one hour. So a 3 hour self-clean cycle will actually take about 4 hours to complete.

NOTE: The kitchen area should be well ventilated using an open window, ventilation fan or exhaust hood during the Self-Clean cycle. This will help eliminate the normal odors associated with the Self-Clean cycle.

To Set a Self-Clean Cycle or a Delayed Start SelfClean Cycle

See example below to start an immediate 4 hours SelfCleaning cycle or to set a Delay Start time of 9:00 o'clock and shut-o automatically.

1. Be sure the clock is set with the correct time of day, the

oven is EMPTY and the door is closed.

2. Press Clean.

3. Press 4, 0, 0.

Note: If a 2 or 4 hour clean time is desired, press 2, 0,

0 for a 2 hour or press 4, 0, 0 for a 4 hour clean time. Set the cleaning time based on the amount of soil: light, average or heavy (*see above).

4. Press Start.

As soon as the control is set, the motor driven oven door

lock will begin to close automatically. Once the door has been locked the "Door Locked" indicator light will stop ashing and remain on.

Note: Allow about 15 seconds for the oven door lock to

close.

Note: If the optional delay Self-Clean feature is needed,

nish steps 5-7.

5. Press Delay Start.

6. Enter the desired Self-Clean starting time using the number pads 9, 0, 0.

7. Press Start.

The control will calculate forward from the set start time

to determine when the Self-Cleaning cycle should end. The Self-Cleaning cycle will turn on automatically at the set time.

• 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.

• DO NOT force the oven door open. This can damage the automatic door locking system. Use caution when opening the door after the self-clean cycle is nished. The oven may still be VERY HOT.

When the Self-Clean Cycle is Completed:

1. The “DOOR LOCKED”, “CLEAN” and “HOT” icons will remain in the display.

2. Once the oven has cooled down for about 1 HOUR and the “DOOR LOCKED” icon is no longer displayed, the oven door can then be opened.

NOTE: When the oven is cool, wipe away any residue or powdered ash with a damp cloth or paper towel.

Stopping or Interrupting a Self-Cleaning Cycle

If it becomes necessary to stop or interrupt a Self-Cleaning cycle:

1. Press Stop.

2. Once the oven has cooled down for about 1 HOUR and the “DOOR LOCKED” light has gone out, the oven door can be opened.

3. Restart the Self-Clean cycle once all conditions have been corrected.

Important notes:

- Starting a Self-Clean cycle will turn ON the Cooktop Lockout

feature. The cooktop will remain locked until the Self-Clean cycle has completed and the oven door has unlocked.

- When a Self-Clean cycle is turn on, the oven light will be disable

and if the oven light is On, it will turn OFF automatically.

Care & Cleaning

Cooktop Maintenance

Consistent and proper cleaning is essential to maintaining your ceramic glass cooktop

Prior to using your cooktop for the rst time, apply the recommended CookTop® Cleaning Creme to the ceramic surface. Bu 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 nish 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:

Use cookware with dirt or dirt build up on bottom; replace • with clean cookware before using.

Slide anything metal or glass across the cooktop. • Use your cooktop as a cutting board or work surface in the •

kitchen. Cook foods directly on the cooktop surface without a pan. • Drop heavy or hard objects on the glass cooktop, because •

they may cause it to crack.

Cooktop Cleaning

Before cleaning the cooktop, be sure the

controls are turned to OFF and the cooktop is COOL.

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.

If soils remain, carefully scrape soils with a metal razor blade scraper, holding scraper at a 30 degree angle to the surface. Remove loosened soils, then apply a few drops of cleaning cream and bu 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 specically designed for ceramic glass cooktop.

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 & Cleaning

Cooktop Cleaning (cont’d)

Do not use the following on the cooktop:

• Do not use abrasive cleaners and scouring pads, such as metal and some nylon pads. They may scratch the cooktop, making it more dicult 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.

funcionamiento adecuado de los productos utilizados en condiciones normales de uso, no sólo en caso de defectos de los productos. Nuestra cobertura va mucho más allá que la garantía del producto. No se aplican deducibles ni exclusiones por fallas del funcionamiento: es decir,

verdadera protección.

; Servicio técnico por expertos (más de 10000 técnicos autorizados de

Sears), lo cual significa que quien repare o realice el mantenimiento de su

producto será un profesional de confianza.

; Servicio técnico a escala nacional y número ilimitado de llamadas de

solicitud de servicio técnico: se puede poner en contacto con nosotros

cuantas veces lo desee y cuando lo desee.

; Garantía «sin sorpresas»: se reemplaza el producto cubierto por el

acuerdo si ocurren cuatro o más fallas del producto en un periodo de 12 meses.

; Reemplazo del producto: en caso de que no se pueda reparar el

producto cubierto por el acuerdo.

; Revisión anual preventiva de mantenimiento del producto: puede

solicitarla en cualquier momento, sin costo alguno.

; Rápida asistencia telefónica, la cual denominamos Solución rápida: es

decir, asistencia telefónica a través de cualquiera de nuestros representantes de Sears, sobre cualquiera de nuestros productos. Piense en nosotros como en un «manual parlante del usuario».

; Protección contra fallas eléctricas, contra daños debidos a fluctuaciones

de la corriente eléctrica.

; $250 al año para cubrir cualquier posible deterioro de alimentos que

haya tenido que desechar debido a una falla mecánica de cualquiera de nuestros refrigeradores o congeladores cubiertos por este acuerdo.

; Devolución de gastos de alquiler de electrodomésticos si la reparación

de su producto asegurado toma más que el tiempo prometido.

; 10% de descuento aplicable tanto a los costos del servicio de reparación,

como de las piezas instaladas relacionadas que no hayan quedado cubiertos por este acuerdo.

Una vez que haya realizado el pago de este acuerdo, bastará una simple llamada telefónica para concertar una visita de servicio. Puede llamar a cualquier hora del día o de la noche, o bien concertar una visita de servicio por Internet.

La adquisición del Acuerdo maestro de protección es una inversión exenta de riesgos. Si por cualquier motivo decide cancelar dicho acuerdo durante el periodo de garantía del producto, le haremos un reintegro total del valor. O bien un importe proporcional si cancela el acuerdo en cualquier otro momento posterior al vencimiento del periodo de garantía del producto. ¡Adquiera hoy mismo su Acuerdo maestro de protección!
