ance. Flammable materials may explode and result in
fire or property damage. ,,

• Wear proper apparel--Loose=fitting or hanging
garments should never be worn while using the

appliance. Do not let clothing or other flammable

materials contact hot surfaces.

,, Do not use water or flour on grease fires--Smother ,,

the fire with a pan lid, or use baking soda, a dry
chemical or foam-type extinguisher.

,, 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 oven
during a power failure. If the power fairs, always turn
the oven off. If the oven is not turned off and the power
resumes, the oven may begin to operate again. (Food left
unattended could catch fire or spoil.)

Electronic controllers can be damaged

by cold temperatures. When you use your appliance for
the first 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. 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. 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 handles should be turned inward and not

extend over adjacent surface units. To reduce the risk
of burns, ignition of flammable materials, and spillage

due to unintentional contact with the utensil.

instructions

Never leave surface burners unattended at high heat
settings--Boilovers cause smoking and greasy accu-
mulations 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 break-
ing due to the sudden change in temperature. Check the
manufacturer's recommendations for cooktop use.

Do not use decorative surface element covers. Ifan
element is accidentally turned on, the decorative cover

will become hot and possibly melt. Burns will occur ifthe
hot covers are touched. Damage may also be done to

the cooktop.

When flaming foods under a ventilating hood, turn

the fan on.

FOR GLASS COOKTOPS ONLY

,, Do not cook on or clean a broken cooktop--lf 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 /

warmer drawer.

,, Keep oven vent ducts unobstructed. The oven vent is

located at right side of the front panel and visible when

the oven door isopen. Touching the surfaces inthis area

when the oven isoperating 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/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.

important Safety instructions

induction Cooktop Features

Fast and Efficient =Induction cooking heats faster while using less energy. Induction power levels are quick to boil and

efficient when simmering.
A Cooler Cooktop - A unique feature of the Induction cooking is that whether elements are ON or recently turned OFF,
the cooktop will be cooler than radiant element ceramic cooktops. Virtually no wasted heat is produced since the heat
begins with the presence of a pan.
Easy Clean=ups =The cooler cooktop surface (when compared to a radiant cooktop) makes clean-ups easier. Spills resist
sticking or burning so they wipe up easier.
Magnetic Detector - The coil sensor automatically detects whether the pan is made of magnetic materials and eliminates
any accidental "turn-ONs", such as might occur from contact with a spatula or spoon
Pan Size Detection -The pan size recognition sensor automatically detects and adapts the Cooking Zones to the pan
sizes in use for consistent, more even cooking.
More Responsive = Induction cooktops are more responsive than their electric or gas counterparts because only the pan
heats. This type of cooking heats easier and will be just as responsive when reducing to a simmer.

The Cooking Zones may appear to be cool while turned ON and after they have been turned OFR But the

glass surface may be HOT from residual heat transferred from the cookware and burns may occur if touched.

Before Using the Cooktop

USE THE CORRECT COOKWARE TYPE -The magnetic Cooking Zone sensors
located below the cooktop surface require the use of cookware made with magnetic
material in order to start the heating process on any of the Cooking Zones.

When purchasing pans, look for cookware specifically identified by the manufacturer
for use with Induction cooktops. If you are not sure, use a magnet to test whether
the cookware type will work. If a magnet sticks to the bottom of the cookware, the
material type is correct for Induction cooking (See Fig. 1). Fig. 1
It is recommended to always use heavier high quality stainless steel cookware on
your Induction Cooktop surface. This will greatly reduce the possibility of developing scratches on the ceramic surface.
Even quality cookware can scratch the cooktop surface, especially if cookware is slid over the ceramic cooktop surface
without being lifted up. Over time sliding ANY type of cookware over the ceramic cooktop will likely alter the overall appear-
ance of the cooktop. Eventually the buildup of scratches will make cleaning the surface difficult and degrade the overall
appearance of the cooktop.

USE THE CORRECT SiZE COOKWARE - The Cooking Zones available on the induction Cooktop require a MiNiMUM
pan size to be used at each location (Fig. 2). The inner ring of each Cooking Zone is your guide to the correct MiNiMUM
pan size. The pan bottom must FULLY cover the inner ring for proper cooking to occur.

The thicker outer ring at each Cooking Zone is helpful to determine the pan MAXIMUM size. After centering the cookware
on the cooktop, make sure the cookware does not extend more than 1/2" beyond the thicker line on the Cooking Zone
(See example in Fig. 2).

NOTE: If a pan made of the correct material is centered properly on any of the active Cooking Zones but is TOO SMALL,
the affected Cooking Zone display will flash the power level and the pan will not heat.

Before

Using the

Cooktop

Use Quality Cookware in Good
Condition

The cookware used with the induction
Cooktop should have flat bottoms that

make good contact with the entire surface
of the Cooking Zone. Check for flatness by
rotating a ruler across the bottom of the
cookware (See Fig. 1). Be sure to follow
all the recommendations for using
cookware as shown in Fig. 2.

Also remember to:
,, Use cookware made with the correct

material type for induction Cooking (See
page 7 Fig. 1).

,, Use quality cookware with heavier

bottoms for better heat distribution
allowing for more even cooking results.

,, The pan size should match the amount

of food being prepared.

,, Do not let pans boil dry. This may

cause permanent damage inthe form of
breakage, fusion, or marring that can
affect the ceramic cooktop. (This type of
damage is not covered by your
warranty).

,, Do not use dirty pans with grease

buildup. Always use pans that are easy

to clean after cooking.

The Induction cooktop has four Cooking Zones designed for cookware of various sizes. Be sure to place cookware that
meets the minimum and maximum pan size requirements (see Fig. 2, page 7) for the Cooking Zone desired and is best
for the amount of food being prepared. Place the cookware with the prepared food on the Cooking Zone BEFORE setting
any of the Cooktop controls.

To Turn ON one or more of the Cooking Zones:

1. Place the prepared food using the correct type and size cookware on the desired Cooking Zone. Be sure to center
the cookware on Cooking Zone completely covering the minimum ring marked on the Zone surface. NOTE: If the
cookware requirements for the Cooking Zone (See Fig. 2, page 8) are not met the sensors will detect a problem and
the display will flash with the power level in the affected Cooking Zone Alpha-Numeric display. Any problems must be
corrected before proceeding.

2. To start one or more of the four Cooking Zones lightly touch the 0 key pad for the Cooking Zones needed. A beep
will sound and the chosen Cooking Zone power level Alpha-Numeric display will show ''= ='' indicating no power level

for the Zone has been set yet. NOTE: If no other key pad is touched within 10 seconds the request to Power ON the
Cooktop Zone will clear.

3. Set the desired power level for the Cooking Zone by touching either the (_ or (_ key pad. ifthe (_ key pad is
touched the Cooking Zone will start at a "Power Boost" maximum power level (the Cooking Zone Alpha-Numeric

display will indicate Pb and the control will beep once), if the (_ key pad is touched once, the Cooking Zone will
start at low (the Cooking Zone Alpha-Numeric display will show "Lo" and the control will beep once).

NOTE: Touch once, or repeatedly touch the (_) or (_) key pads to adjust or scroll through power levels at
time during the cooking process (To scroll through the power levels quickly touch and hold the (_) or (_ key

pads until the power level desired is reached). Once the Cooking Zone power level has been set the food will begin
to heat at that level until the power level is manually changed. For more information about the available Cooktop
Zone power levels available see "Power Level Settings" section on page 9.

Setting Cooktop Controls

Cooking zones will appear to be cool after they have been turned off. The glass surface may still be

hot and burns may occur if the glass surface is touched before it has cooled sufficiently.

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 fire if placed too close to the surface elements.

iMPORTANT OPERATING NOTES:

• Fluids spilled or objects lying on the controls area of the cooktop may cause the cooktop to display an error code and

turn OFF while cooking. Clean the spills or remove the objects from the cooktop.
If the cookware or pan is moved from the center of any active Cooking Zone for any reason, a sensor will detect the

situation and the cookware will no longer heat. The affected Cooking Zone Alpha-Numeric display will flash the power
level set for the Cooking Zone. The Cooking Zone will remember the power level setting for up to 3 minutes before the
Cooking Zone will automatically shut OFF.

To Turn OFF the Cooking Zones:

1. Once cooking is complete, touch the Q key pad to turn the Cooking Zone OFF.

2. A beep will sound, the chosen Cooking Zone and its Alpha-Numeric display will turn off.

3. When any Cooking Zone is OFF, the corresponding Cooking Zone Alpha-Numeric display may show HE if the
Cooking Zone temperature is HOT. The Alpha-Numeric display will continue to display HE, and even if the Cooktop
is switched OFF the Alpha-Numeric display will continue to indicate HE as long as the cooking zone remains HOT.

The cooling fan will operate as long as the HE indicator is displayed.

The Cooking Zones may appear to be cool while turned ON and after they have been turned OFR But the

glass surface may be HOT from residual heat transferred from the cookware and burns may occur.

Preheat Recommendations

When preheating a pan on the cooktop always watch carefully. Whenever using the cooktop, always pay attention to
any items cooking and remain attentive until the cooking process is complete.

Keep in mind that induction may decrease the amount of time required to preheat a cooking utensil.

Recommended Settings for induction Cooking Zones

Type of Cooking

POWER BOOST (Pb) Use when first starting to heat pans that contain large amounts of food or to bring

large pans of water to boil.
HIGH (8.0 =Hi) Start most foods, bring water to a boil or pan broiling
MEDIUM HIGH (5.0 =8.0) Continue a rapid boil, fry, deep fat fry
MEDIUM (3.0 =5.0) Maintain a slow boil, thicken sauces and gravies, steam vegetables
MEDIUM LOW (2.0 - 4.0) Keep foods cooking, poach, stew (2.8 or lower is a simmer setting).

LOW/SIMMER (Lo - 2.0) Keep warm, melt, simmer (2.8 or lower is a simmer setting).

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

Cooktop Controls

Power Sharing

The range is equipped with four
cooking zones divided into two heating
sections: right and left. Each section
has two zones that share the power of

one induction inverter.
If you are cooking in both zones of a

heating section, the last zone that
began to heat will cook at the power
setting you selected. The other zone
might experience a slight decrease
from its power setting.

Power Sharing Tips: Remember to
select the power setting last for the
cooking zone you want to maintain at
full setting heat. To maintain full setting
heat for two items, place one item on a

zone in one section, and the other item
on a zone in another section.

Operational Noises

The electronic processes involved with induction Cooking create some unusual background noises. These noises are
normal and part of the Induction Cooking process.

Please note that these noises are more noticeable while cooking at the Power BOOST level.

Before Setting Oven Controls

_This range has a fan that willturn "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.

Cooktop and Oven Vent Location

The cooktop and the oven are vented through its

upper front frame. When the cooktop of the oven is on,
hot air is released through the vents. This venting is
necessary for proper air circulation and good baking

results.

Oven vent

To remove, pull the rack forward until it stops. Lift up
front of rack and slide out. To replace, fit the rack onto
the guides on the oven walls. Tilt the front of the rack

upward and slide the rack back into place.

Removing and Replacing Oven Racks

Arranging Oven Racks

ALWAYS ARRANGE OVEN RACKS WHEN THE OVEN IS COOL (PRIOR TO OPERATING THE OVEN). Always use

Air Circulation in the Oven

For best air circulation and baking results allow 2-4" (5-10 cm) around the
cookware for proper air circulation and be sure pans and cookware do not
touch each other, the oven door, sides or back of the oven cavity. The hot
air must circulate around the pans and cookware in the oven for even heat

to reach around the food.

Setting Convection Bake

The CONVECTION BAKE _,,_k_,,,,_pad controls the Convection Bake feature.
Use the Convection Bake feature when cooking speed Jsdesired. The oven can
be programmed for Convection baking at any temperature between 170°F
(77°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 and more evenly than conventional bake. This oven is
equipped with multiple fan speeds for even cooking when baking and better tasting
meats when roasting, it will use a slower fan speed for convection baking. The
slow fan speed slowly and evenly moves the air through the cavity to produce
lighter flakier crusts for pies and evenly brown cookies.

General Convection Bake Instructions

1. 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. Preheating Jsnot necessary when cooking casseroles with Convection
Bake.

3. 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

Setting Convection Roast

This method of cooking enables you to obtain the best results when roasting. The oven can be programmed to
convection roast at any temperature from 170°F to 550°F (77°C to 288°C). Remember to use tested recipes with times
adjusted for convection roasting when using the convection mode. Times may be reduced by as much as 30% when
using the convection feature. 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.

Setting the Slow Cook Feature

The _ SLOW COOK pad is used to activate this feature. The Slow Cook feature may be used to cook foods
slowly, at lower oven temperatures and provides cooking results much the same way as a Slow Cooker or Crock-Pot.

The Slow Cook feature is ideal for roasting beef, pork & poultry. Slow Cooking meats may result in the exterior of meats
becoming dark but not burnt. This is normal.

There are 2 settings available, high (HI) or low (LO). 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 Slow Cook (see Timed Bake steps 5-7) or a Delayed Start Bake Slow Cook (see Delayed
Start Bake steps 6-10).

Below is a list of preparation and cooking tips you should review for best possible results using Slow Cook:

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

When using a single rack, place in position 2 or 3 (see figure 1 on page 15).

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.
Cook times will vary; depending on the weight, fat content, bone & the shape of the meat.
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.

Using and Setting Meat Probe

Checking the internal temperature of your food is the most effective way of insuring that your food has been properly
cooked. When cooking meat such as roasts, hams or poultry you can use the meat probe to check the internal
temperature without any guesswork. For some foods, especially poultry and roasts, testing the internal temperature is the
best method to insure properly cooked meats.

Important things to consider:

• Use only the probe supplied with your appliance; any other may result in damage to the probe or the appliance.

• Handle the probe carefully when inserting and removing from the food or the receptacle.

• Do not use tongs to pull the cable when inserting or removing from the food or the receptacle.

• Defrost your food completely before inserting the probe to avoid damaging probe.

• Never leave or store the probe inside the oven when not in use.

• To prevent the possibility of burns, after

cooking carefully unplug the probe using a pot

holder.

Proper Meat Probe placement:

• Always insert the probe so that the tip rests in

the center of the thickest part of the meat. Do

not allow the probe to touch bone, fat, gristle or

the pan.

• For bone-in ham or lamb, insert the probe into

the center of the lowest large muscle or joint.

For dishes such as meat loaf or casseroles,
insert the probe into the center of the food. To

find the center of the food visually measure with
the probe (See Fig. 1). When cooking fish,

insert the probe just above the gill.

• For whole poultry or turkey, insert the probe into

the thickest part of the inner thigh, below the leg

(See Fig. 2).

Setting Warmer Drawer Controls

Arranging Warmer (Warm & Ready TM) 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 larger 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).

Warmer Drawer Rack in

upward position _

Figure 1

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.

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.

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.

Warmer (Warm & Ready TM) Drawer & Bread Proofing
Indicator Lights

The control and indicator lights for the Warmer Drawer and Bread
Proofing features are located on the control panel. The indicator lights

Preparing Bread Dough for the Warmer Drawer

The Warmer Drawer has a "Proof Bread" feature that can be used
to help prepare bread dough. The recommended length of time to

keep bread dough in the Warmer Drawer is about 45-60 minutes.
Be sure however to follow the recipe's recommended times.

The prepared bread dough should be placed in a large bowl since
the dough will nearly double in volume. Arrange the Warmer
Drawer Rack in the downward position (see Figure 6). Place the

bowl on the rack in the Warmer Drawer and follow the Warmer
Drawer and Proof bread Control setting instructions at the top of

Self=Cleaning

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
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-Cleaning cycle is completed. The
oven may still be VERY HOT.

DO HAND

CLEAN FRAME

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.

CLEAN DOOR

Note: See additional cleaning informa-
tion for the oven door in the General

Care & Cleaning section.
Note: Ifyour range is equipped with a

warmer drawer, the warmer drawer
cannot be used during a self-clean
cycle. Warmer drawer must be turned
off before the clean cycle is started.

NOTE: Prior to setting the Self-Clean cycle, any spills remaining on the oven
bottom should be removed.

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. Ifavailable, use an exhaust fan during the self-cleaning cycle.

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.

36

Self-Cleaning

The cooktop lockout i_ feature will be activated during the self-clean and will unlock after the oven has cooled down.

Self-Clean Cycle Time Length

The FLEX CLEAN _x_ pad controls the Self-Cleaning feature. If you are planning to use the oven directly after a self-
clean cycle remembe-Tl-o 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.
*it is recommend to use a 2 hour self-clean cycle for light soils, a 3 hour cycle for average soils, and a 4 hour cycle for
heavy soils (to assure satisfactory results).

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 and

avoid possible burns when opening the door after the Self-Cleaning cycle has completed. The oven may still be VERY
HOT.

General Care & Cleaning

Ceramic Glass Cooktop Cleaning & Maintenance

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

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

heaW or hard objects on the glass cooktop, because they may cause it to crack.

CIJ;

J

........iii.......

_ 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 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.

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 heaw or burned on soils.

General Care & Cleaning

Do not use the following on the ceramic glass cooktop:

• 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

Solutions to Common Problems

Before you call for service, review this list. It may save you time and expense. The list includes common occurrences
that are not the result of defective workmanship or materials in this appliance.

OCCURRENCE POSSIBLE CAUSE/SOLUTION

Range is not level.

Cannot move appliance
easily. Appliance must be

accessible for service.

Oven control beeps and
displays any F or Ell=E77

code error

Surface element too hot incorrect control setting. Make sure the correct control is ON for the cooking zone.
or not hot enough.

Surface element does not

Poor installation. Place oven rack in center of oven. Place a level on the oven rack. Adjust
leveling legs at base of range until the rack is level. When range is level, cooktop may
appear out of alignment if countertop is not level.

Weak, unstable floor. Be sure floor is level and can adequately support range. Contact a
carpenter to correct sagging or sloping floor.

Kitchen cabinet misalignment may make range appear to be unlevel. Be sure cabinets are
square and have sufficient room for range clearance.

Cabinets not square or are built in too tight. Contact a cabinet maker to correct the problem.
Contact builder or installer to make appliance accessible.

Carpeting interferes with range. Provide sufficient space so range can be lifted over carpet.
Electronic controls have detected a fault condition. Press the STOP key pad to clear the

display and ctop beeping. Turn appliance off and back on again. Try selected feature
again. If fault recurs, record fault number. Press the STOP key pad and call 1-800-4-MY-
HOME® for assistance (See back cover).

Make sure to use correct cookware type for induction cooking. Look for cookware
specifically identified by the manufacturer for use with Induction cooktops. If you're not
sure, use a magnet to test whether the cookware type will work. If a magnet sticks to the
bottom of the cookware, the material type is correct for Induction cooking. It is
recommended to always use heavier HIGH quality stainless steel cookware on your
Induction Cooktop surface.

Lightweight or warped pans used. Use only flat, evenly balanced, medium or heavyweight
cookware. Flat pans heat better than warped pans. Cookware materials and weight of the
material affect heating. Heavy and medium weight pans heat evenly. Because light weight
pans heat unevenly, foods may burn easily.

Surface elements do not
glow when on.

Entire range or oven does
not operate.

Oven control displays
