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 then 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 fiat 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.
Never leave surface units unattended m Boilovers cause smoking and greasy
accumulations that may ignite, or a pan that has boiled dry may melt.
Glazed cooking utensilsmOnly 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 cooktop use.
iMPORTANT iNSTRUCTiONS FOR USING
YOUR OVEN
* Use Care When Opening an Oven Door or
a Warmer Drawer_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.
* Keep Oven Vent Ducts Unobstructed. The oven is
vented at the at the center trim above the oven. Touching the surfaces in this area when the oven
is operating may cause severe burns. Also, do not place plastic or heat-sensitive items near the oven vent. These items could melt or ignite.
NEVER cover any slots, holes or passages in the oven bottom or cover an entire rack with materials such as aluminum foil. Doing
so blocks air flow through the oven and may cause carbon monoxide poisoning. Aluminum foil linings may trap heat, causing a fire hazard.
* Placement of Oven Racks. Always place oven
racks in desired location while oven is cool.
Remove all utensils from the rack before removing rack. If rack must be moved while oven is hot, use extreme caution. Use pot holders and grasp the rack with both hands to reposition. Do not let pot
holders contact the hot oven element or interior of the oven.
Do not use the broiler pan without its insert. The
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 grid or oven bottom with aluminum foil. Exposed fat and grease could ignite.

* 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.
* 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 appliance
The health of some birds is
extremely sensitive to the fumes given off during the self-clean cycle of any oven. Move birds to another well ventilated room.
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR
CLEANING YOUR OVEN
* Clean the appliance regularly to keep all parts
free of grease that could catch fire. Exhaust fan
ventilation hoods and grease filters should be
kept clean. Do not allow grease to accumulate. Greasy deposits in the fan could catch fire.
Refer to the hood manufacturer's instructions for cleaning.
* Clean Ventilating Hoods Frequently--Grease
should not be allowed to accumulate on the hood or filter. Follow manufacturer's instructions for
cleaning.
FOR CERAMIC GLASS COOKTOPS
* Do not clean or operate 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.

Before Setting Oven Controls
Oven Vent Location
The oven is vented through its upper front frame. When the oven is on, warm air is released through the vent. This venting is necessary for proper air circulation in the oven and good baking results. Do not block oven vent.
Oven Vent
_J__ Some
models are equipped with a blower which
runs in baking and self-cleaning mode to keep all internal components at a cool temperature. The blower may keep run- ning even if the oven has been turned ofl:_ until the components
have cooled down.
Arranging Oven Racks
Always use pot holders or oven mitts when
adjusting the oven racks. Wait until the oven has completely cooled if possible. Oven racks may be HOT and cause burns.
To remove an oven rack, pull the rack forward until it stops. Lift up front of rack and slide out.
Air Circulation in the Oven
If using 1 rack, place in center of oven. If using multiple
racks, stagger cookware as shown.
For best air circulation and baking results allow 2-4" (5-10 cm) around the cool<ware for proper air circulation and be sure pans and cool<ware 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.
1 Oven Rack
Multiple Oven Racks
To replace an oven rack, fit the rack onto the guides on the oven walls. Tilt the front of the rack upward and slide the
rack back into place.

Surface Cookware Recommendations
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 (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 appearance of the cooktop. Eventually the buildup of scratches will make cleaning the surface difficult and degrade the overall appearance of the cooktop.
Use Quality Cookware in Good Condition
The cookware used with the Induction Cooktop should have fiat 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. 2). Be sure to follow all the recommendations for using cookware.
Fig. 2
Also remember to: * Use cookware made with the correct material type for
Induction Cooking (Fig. 2).
* 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 boll dry. This may cause permanent
damage in the 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.
Induction Cooktop Features
A COOLER COOl(TOP - A unique feature of the Induction Cooktop is whether turned ON or OFF, the cooktop surface remains cooler than standard ceramic cooktops.
The Cooking Zones may appear to be cool while turned ON and after they have been turned OFF. But the glass surface may be HOT from residual heat transferred from the cookware and burns may occur.
MAGNETIC DETECTOR - The coil sensor automatically detects if a pan is magnetic; if it is not, the Cooking Zone will
not activate. PAN SIZE DETECTION - The pan detection sensor automatically
adapts the size of Cooking Zones to the pan sizes in use. EFFICIENT - Induction cooking heats faster while using less
energy. Induction power boils more quickly and simmers more evenly.
The Cooking Zones may appear to be cool
while turned ON and after they have been turned OFF. But the glass surface may be HOT from residual heat transferred from the cookware and burns may occur.
DO NOT TOUCH HOT COOl(WARE or
PANS directly with hands. Always use oven mitts or pot holders to protect hands from burns.
DO NOT SLIDE Cookware across the
cooktop surface. Doing so may permanently damage the appearance of the ceramic cooktop.
Prior to using your cooktop for the first time, apply the recommended cooktop cleaning cream (on the web visit www. sears.cam for replacement cleaner, item number 40079) to the
ceramic surface. 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.

The Cooking Zones available on the Induction Cooktop require a MINIMUM pan size to be used at each location (Figs. 2). The outer tip of each Cooking Zone cross-hair is helpful
to determine the pan MAXIMUM size. After centering the
cookware on the cooktopr make sure the cool<ware does not extend more than 1/2" beyond the outer tip of cross-hair of
the Cooking Zone. The pan must make FULL contact on the
glass surface without the bottom of the pan touching the metal cooktop trims.
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.
* Heavy handle tilts pan.
PLEASE NOTE- ANY one of the incorrect conditions listed above may be detected by the sensors located below the
ceramic cooktop surface. If the cookware meets any of these incorrect conditions, one or more of the Cooking Zones will not
heat indicated by a flashing power level display. Correct the problems before attempting to reactivate the cooktop.

Setting Surface Controls
Power Sharing
In order to give you more flexibility, your induction cooktop is equipped with more cooking zones than the number of induction generators. Each of those generators is assigned to power a specific cooking zone (Fig. 1). Two cooking zones are assigned to each generator. To be able to give you access to the highest power ratings, the generator will focus its power onto only one cooking zone. If you use more than one cooking zone at high power on the same generator, the generator will
need to share its power to both cooking zones, thus lowering the power level of one of the cooking zones.
When you are sharing power (cooking in both zones}, the
last zone set will cook at the power setting you selected. The other zone will experience a slight decrease from its power setting if both zones are set high enough.
To get the highest power output from your cooking zones, cook with only one ¢ookware per generator. If you need to use most of your cooking zones at once, start your cooking process on only one cooking zone within the generator heating
section and then add your second cookware on the second
cooking zone when the first one hasalready reached its cooking temperature.
Remember to select the power setting last for the cooking zone you want to maintain.
2 Induction Generators
Operational Noises
The electronics generating the induction fields are pretty much noiseless but they do produce heat at high power level. A soft-sounding cooling fan activates when the unit is running multiple cooking zones at once or when a cooking zone is set at very high power settings.
The buzzing sound you could hear from your cooktop is not coming from the electronics but from the cool<ware you are using. Here are some causes of this noise:
° Most induction-ready cookware are made of several
layers of materials. An encapsulated steel layer is usually used to harness the induction field and transform it into
heat, which is then transferred to the other materials by radiant energy. The induction field wiil cause the steel layer to vibrate against the other materials in which it is encapsulated. This is the most common cause of noise from the induction process. This buzzing only happens at the higher power level settings. Note that high quality cookware manufacturers weld this steel layer in place
which lowers or cancel this noise.
° Light weight cookware may also vibrate. We recommend
using heavy weight quality cookware.
° Cookware with warped bottoms can vibrate on the
ceramic glass surface at high power settings.
° _ The power output of your induction cooktop
is capable of warping an empty pan. Never use the
higher power settings on an empty pan. Even the highest quality cookware is vulnerable to warping.
° Riveted handles on cookware can also cause buzzing
sounds from the vibrations.
° Solid cast iron and enamelware cookware should not emit
any noise. Top quality cookware made of several layers should also be relatively quiet.

Meat Probe
When cooking meat such as roasts, hams or poultry you can use the probe to check the internal temperature without any guesswork. For some foods, especially pouffry and roasts, testing the internal temperature is the most effective way of insuring that your food has been properly cooked.
Your oven wiii automatically change from cooking to keep warm once the probe has reached the set temperature.
The following temperature settings apply to the probe function:
° Default: 170°F / 76°C ° Minimum: 130°F / 54°C ° Maximum: 210°F / 99°C
* Use only the probe supplied with your appliance; any other
may result in damage to the probe or the appliance.
° Be sure the probe is fully inserted into the probe
receptacle. The probe will not work properly until correctly connected.
° Handle the probe carefully when inserting and removing
it from the food and the receptacle.
* Do not use tongs to pull the cable when inserting or
removing it 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, carefully unplug the
probe using a pot holder.
Fig. 2
Important note: Changing how the oven reacts after reaching the target temperature must be done before starting the cooking
process.
To Set Meat Probe:
1.
Prepare the food and properly insert the temperature probe into the food. DO NOT preheat or start cooking before properly inserting the meat probe. The probe
should be inserted into the food and receptacle while the oven is still cool,
2. Place the prepared food on the desired oven rack
position and slide into the oven.
3. Plug the meat probe into the probe receptacle located
on the left front oven cavity top (See Fig. 3 for location of probe receptacle).
Proper 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 -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 -Fig. 2-.

only 140°F/60°C means some food poisoning organisms
may survive." (Source: Safe Food Book, Your Kitchen
Guide, USDA Rev. June 1958.) The lowest temperature recommended by the USDA is
145°F/63°C for medium rare fresh beef.

Slow Cook
Recipe Recall
The Slow Cook feature may be used to cook foods more slowly at lower oven temperatures. Slow Cook provides cooking results much the same way as a slow cooker or
Crock-Pot.
This 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.
Slow Cook may be set with the following options:
° Cook Time ° Cook Time and/or Delay Start
For Slow Cook two settings are available, high (Hi) or low (Lo). The high setting is best for cooking foods from a 4 to 5 hour time period. The low setting is best for cooking foods from a 8 to 9 hour time period.
See the example below to set a slow cool<.

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 fine powdered ash that you can later easily wipe away with a damp cloth.
Adhere to the following precautions when running the self-
clean cycle:
Allow the oven to cool before cleaning. ° Wear rubber gloves when cleaning any exterior parts of
the oven manually.
Do not use oven cleaners or protective coatings in or around the oven interion
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 fall from the oven. These items cannot withstand high cleaning temperatures.
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 wails, 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 finished. The oven may still be VI:RY HOT.
" The health of some birds is extremely sensitive to the
fumes given off during the self-cleaning cycle of any appliance. Move birds to another well-ventilated room.

DO Hand Hand Clean Clean Oven Door
Frame Gasket
This oven comes with lubricated porcelain oven racks, which can remain in the oven during the self-clean cycle.
Do not clean this vegetable oil lubrication off the racks. It
is important that the sides of the oven racks always have a light coating of vegetable oil. To maintain optimal rack
performance, re-apply a thin layer of vegetable oil to the
sides of the rack after every self-clean cycle or when the
rack becomes difficult to slide.
Remove any excessive spillovers in the oven cavity
before starting a self-clean cycle. To dean, use hot, soapy water and a cloth. Large spillovers can cause heavy smoke or fire 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 sufficiently to burn soil on.
Do not allow food spills with a high sugar or acid content (such as mill<, tomatoes, sauerkraut, fruit juices or pie filling) to remain on the porcelain surface, they may leave a dull spot even after cleaning.

What to Expect during Cleaning While the oven is in operation, the oven heats to
temperatures much higher than those used in normal cooking. Sounds of metal expansion and contraction are normal. Odor is also normal as the food soil is being removed. Smoke may appear through the oven vent.
If heavy spillovers are not wiped up before cleaning, they
may flame and cause more smoke and odor than usual. This is normal and safe and should not cause alarm. If
available, use an exhaust fan during the self-cleaning cycle.

Self-Cleaning Cycle
Flex Clean Cycle
The FLEX CLEAN pad controls the Self-Cleaning feature. When used with a the Delay Start pad, a delayed Self- Cleaning cycle may also be programmed. The Flex Clean feature allows for any Self-Cleaning cycle time from 2 (2:00) to 4 hours (4:00). You may also choose the clean time in 1 minute increments (for example 2 hours and 50 minutes) by pressing the corresponding number keypads.
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. _lt 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).
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.
See example below to start an immediate Self-Cleaning cycle or to set a Delay Start time of 9:00 o'clock and shut-
off automatically (example provided is a default 3 hour Self-Clean cycle)
.
Be sure the clock is set with the correct time of day, the oven is EMPTY and the oven door is closed.
2.
PressFLEX CLEAN.
The control will automatically clean for a 3 hour period (default self-cleaning cycle time). Note: If a 2 or 4 hour
clean time isdesired, press 2 0 0 for 2 hour or press 4 0
0 for a 4 hour clean time. Set the cleaning time based on the amount of soil: light, medium or heavy (€See above).
.
Press START.
As soon as the control is set, the motor driven oven door loci< will begin to close automatically. Once the door has been locked the "DOOR LOCKED" indicator light will stop flashing and remain on.
Note: Allow about 15 seconds for the oven door loci< to close. Note: If the opflonal delay Self=Clean feature is needed,
finish steps 4=6.
4. Press DELAY START.
5. Enter the desired Self-Clean starting time using the number pads 9 00.
6. 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 and avoid possible burns when opening the door after the Self-Cleaning cycle has completed. The oven may still be
VERY HOT.
When the Self=Clean Cycle is Completed Once the oven has cooled down for approximately 1 HOUR,
and the "DOOR LOCKED" icon is no longer displayed, the oven door can then be opened.
Stopping or Inferrupflng a Self=Cleanlng Cycle
If it becomes necessary to stop or interrupt a self-cleaning
cycle due to excessive smoke or fire in the oven:
1. Press STOP.
2. Once the oven has cooled down for approximately 1 HOUR, and the "DOOR LOCKED" icon is no longer
displayed, the oven door can then be opened.
NOTE A smoke eliminator in the oven vent converts most of the
smoke into a colorless vapor.
If a self-clean cycle was started but did not finish due to a
power failure, your oven may not be completely cleaned. After power has been restored and the oven door has
unlocked, set for another self-clean if needed.

Cooktop Maintenance
Consistent and proper cleanlng is essential to maintaining
your ceramlc glass caoktap
Cooktop Cleaning
Before cleaning the cooktop, be sure the con-
trois are turned to OFF and the cooktop is COOL.
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 cook- top cleaning cream leaves a protective finish on the glass to help prevent scratches and abrasions.
Sliding aluminum or copper clad bottom pans on the cool<- top 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.
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-abraslve plas- tic type no-scratch cleaning pad to dean the entire cooktop
surface. Make sure the cooktop is cleaned thoroughly, leaving no residue.
For heavy, burned on sail: Apply a few drops of CookTop® Cleaning Creme directly to the soiled area. Rub the soiled area using a non-abraslve 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 dean.
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 oc- cur 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 illus- trated). Allow the cooktop to cool, and use the same method for heavy or burned on soils.
