Page 4
Important Safety Instructions
Do Not Leave Children Alone--Children should not be left
alone or unattended in the area where appliance is in use.
They should never be allowed to sit or stand on any part of the appliance.
DO NOTTOUCH SURFACE BURNERS, AREAS NEARTHESE BURNERS, OVEN BURNERS OR INTERIOR SURFACES OF THE OVEN. Both surface and oven burners may be hot even though flames are not visible. Areas near surface burners may
become hot enough to cause burns. During and after use, do not touch, or let clothing or other flammable materials touch these areas until they have had sufficient time to cool. Among these areas are the cook top, surfaces facing the cook top, the oven vent openings and surfaces near these openings, oven
door and window.
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 burners. 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--ELECTRIC IGNITION MODELS ONLY: Do not attempt to operate the oven during a power failure. If the power
fails, always turn off the oven. If the oven is not turned off and
the power resumes, the oven will begin to operate again. Once the power resumes, reset the clock and oven function.
Protective Liners--Do not use aluminum foil to line surface burner pans, or oven bottom, except as suggested in this
manual, improper installation of these liners may result in risk of electric shock, or fire.
Glazed Cooking Utensils--Only certain types of glass, glass/ ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed utensils are suitable for cooktop service without breaking due to sudden change in temperatures. Check the manufacturer's
recommendations for cooktop use.
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING YOUR OVEN
Use Care When Opening Oven Door or Warmer Drawer-- Stand to the side of the range when opening the door of a hot
oven. Let hot air or steam escape before you remove or replace food in the oven.
Keep Oven Vent Ducts Unobstructed. The oven vent is located below the backguard. Touching the surfaces in this
area when the oven is operating may cause severe burns.
Also, do not place plastic or heat-sensitive items on or near
the oven vent. These items could melt or ignite.
Placement of Oven Racks. Always place oven racks in desired location while oven is cool. If rack must be moved
while oven is hot use extreme caution. Use potholders and
grasp the rack with both hands to reposition. Do not let potholders contact the hot heating elements in the oven.
Remove all utensils from the rack before moving.
Do not use the broiler pan without its insert. The broiler pan and its insert allow dripping fat to drain and be kept away from
the high heat of the broiler.
Do not cover the broiler insert with aluminum foil. Exposed
fat and grease could ignite.
Cold temperatures can damage the electronic control. When using the appliance for the first time, or when the appliance has not been used for an extended period of time, be certain the unit has been in temperatures above 32°F (0°C) for at least 3 hours before turning on the power to the appliance.
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING
YOUR COOKTOP
Use Proper Flame Size--Adjust flame size so
it does not extend beyond the edge of the utensil. The use of undersized utensils will expose a portion of the burner flame to direct contact and may result in ignition of clothing. Proper
relationship of utensil to flame will also improve efficiency.
Know which knob controls each surface burner. Place a pan of food on the burner before turning it on, and turn the
burner off before removing the pan.
Always turn knob to the full LITE position when igniting top burners. Visually check that burner has lit. Then adjust the flame
so it does not extend beyond the edge of the utensil.
Utensil Handles Should Be Turned Inward and Not Extend Over Adjacent Surface Burners--To reduce the risk of burns, ignition
of flammable materials, and spillage due to unintentional contact with the utensil, the handle of the utensil should be positioned so
that it is turned inward, and does not extend over adjacent surface burners.
Never Leave Surface Burners Unattended at High Heat Settings--Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite, or a pan that has boiled dry may melt.
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR CLEANING
YOUR RANGE
Clean the range regularly to keep all parts free of grease that could catch fire. Pay particular attention to the area
underneath each surface element. Do not allow grease to accumulate. Refer to the range manufacturer's instructions for cleaning.
Kitchen cleaners and aerosols--Always follow the manufacturer's recommended directions for use. Be aware
that excess residue from cleaners and aerosols may ignite causing damage and injury.
SELF CLEANING OVENS
Clean in the self-cleaning cycle only the parts listed in this Use & Care Guide. Before self cleaning the oven, remove the broiler pan and any utensils or foods from the oven.
Do Not Use Oven Cleaners--No commercial oven cleaner or oven liner protective coating of any kind should be used in or around any part of the oven.
Do Not Clean Door Gasket--The door gasket is essential for a good seal. Care should be taken not to rub, damage or move the gasket.

Important Safety Instructions
FOR CERAMIC-GLASS COOK TOP MODELS (some models)
Do Not Cook on Broken Cook Top--If cook top should break, cleaning solutions and spillovers may penetrate the broken cook top and create a risk of electric shock. Contact a qualified technician immediately.
Clean Cook Top 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 noxious fumes if applied to a hot surface.

Oven Vent Location
The oven vent is located below the backguard (See Fig. 1). When the oven is on,
warm air is released through this vent. This venting is necessary for proper air
circulation in the oven and good baking results. DO NOT BLOCK THE VENT.

Before Setting Oven Controls
Baking Layer Cakes with 1 or 2 Oven Racks
For best results when baking cakes using 2 oven racks, place cookware on oven rack positions 2 & 5 (See Fig. 1 and Fig. 2 on page 9). For best results when using a single oven rack, place cookware on oven rack position 4 (See Fig. 2 and Fig. 2 on page page 9).
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 be able to circulate around the pans and cookware in the oven for

Surface Cooking
Operating Gas Surface Burners
Setting Proper Burner Flame Size
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 orwood spoons could catch fire if placed too
close to a flame.
In the event of an electrical power outage, the surface burners can be lit
manually. To light a surface burner, hold a lit match to the burner head, then
slowly turn the surface control knob to LITE. After burner lights push in and turn
knob to desired setting. Use caution
when lighting surface burners manually.

Improper
flame size
Fig. 2
Operating the Gas Surface Burners:
1. Place cooking utensil on surface burner.
2. Push the surface control knob in and turn counterclockwise out of the OFF position (See Fig. 1).
3. Release the knob and rotate to the LITE position. Note: All four electronic surface ignitors will spark at the same time. However, only the burner you are turning on will ignite.
4. Visually check that the burner has lit.
5. Push the control knob in and turn counterclockwise to the desired flame size. The control knobs do not have to be set at a particular setting. Use
the guides and adjust the flame as needed. DO NOT cook with the surface control knob in the LITE position (The electronic ignitor will continue to spark if the knob is left in the LITE position).
Setting Proper Surface Burner Flame Size
For most cooking, start on the highest control setting and then turn to a lower one to complete the process. Use the recommendations below as a guide for determining proper flame size for various types of cooking. The size and type of utensil used and the amount of food being cooked will influence the setting needed for cooking.
i
*Flame Size Type of Cooking
High Flame Start most foods; bring water to a boil; pan broiling. Medium Flame Maintain a slow boil; thicken sauces, gravies; steaming. Low Flame Keep foods cooking; poach; stewing.
*These settings are based on using medium-weight metal or aluminum
pans with lids. Settings may vary when using other types of pans. The
color of the flame is the key to proper burner adjustment. A good flame is clear, blue and hardly visible in a well-lighted room. Each cone of flame should be steady and sharp. Adjust or clean burner if flame is yellow-orange.
Regardless of size, always select cookware that is suitable for the amount and type of food being prepared. Select a burner and flame size appropriate to the pan. Never allow flames to extend beyond the outer edge of the pan.
Never extend the flame beyond the outer edge of the utensil. A higher flame wastes heat and energy and increases your risk of being burned by the flame (Fig. 2).
For deep fat frying, use a thermometer and adjust the surface control knob accordingly, tfthe fat is too cool, the food will absorb the fat and be greasy, tf the fat is too hot, the food will brown so quickly that the center will be undercooked. Do not attempt to deep fat fry too much food at once as the food will neither brown nor cook properly.

Setting the Bridge Burner (for Bridge Burner models only):
The Bridge Burner should be used with rectangular shaped cookware. Cookware like the cast-iron Griddle that is supplied with your range is designed specifically for best results with the Bridge Burner.
The Bridge Burner feature may be used to combine the cooking power of 2 or if needed 3 gas surface Burners located along the left-hand side of the glass cooktop.The left rear and left center Burners are controlled by the left rear surface Control Knob. Inaddition the left front Burner may be added to the Bridge Burner
with the left front gas Control Knob (See Fig. 1).
Operating the Bridge Burner (for Bridge Burner models only):
1. Push the left rear surface control knob in and turn counterclockwise out of the OFF position (See Fig. 1).
3. Release the knob and rotate to the LITE position (See Figs. 1 & 2). Note: All electronic surface ignitors will spark at the same time. However, only the
selected surface Burner will lite.
3. Visually check that the left rear Burner has lit.
4. Contine to rotate the gas control knob clockwise past the first LO setting to the arrowmarked BRIDGE.
5. Visually check that both the left rear and left center Burners are lit.
6. When both burners are lit, continue to turn the control knob counterclockwise to adjust to the desired flame size for both burners together. Note: The markings between the 2nd HI and LO settings on the left rear control knob adjust the flame size for both burners. Use the guide marks between the 2nd HI and LO settings and adjust the flame size as needed (Refer to Fig. 3).
7. Add the left front Burner if needed. Once lit, visually adjust the flame size of the left front Burner to match the flame size of the Bridge Burner.
8. Place cooking utensil centered over the left-hand cooktop surface Burner Grate. DO NOT cook with any of the surface control knobs in the LITE position (The electronic ignitor will continue to spark if the knob is left in the LITE position).

Care & Seasoning of the Griddle
Using the Griddle
Care & Seasoning of the Griddle
Before first use:
Wash Griddle in hot soapy water. Rinse and then dry completely.
Apply a thin coat of vegetable oil to the entire surface (front and back of griddle).
Preheat your oven to 350°F. Place the griddle on the upper rack in your oven.
Bake griddle for 1 hour at 350°F, then turn oven OFF and let cool before removing.
The surface may appear to have a tacky feel to it from the seasoning process. If desired, wash the griddle in hot soapy water, rinse well, and dry completely.
After each use:
To prevent rusting, store in a dry place and keep uncovered.
After each use, clean with a stiff brush and hot water only.
DO NOT CLEAN GRIDDLE IN DISHWASHER.
Dry Immediately and apply a light coating of vegetable oil to griddle before storing.
Using the Griddle:
Place either side of the griddle centered over the left side gas burners or over the Bridge Burner (some models). For location refer to Fig. 1.
Preheat the griddle for 5 minutes on medium to medium low setting. Slow preheat ensures even heat distribution during the cooking process.
DO NOT preheat the griddle on HI setting. Preheating on HI may warp the griddle and prevent even heat distribution.

Setting Broil (Gas Oven)
The _ pad controls the Broil feature. When broiling, heat radiates downward from the oven broiler for even coverage. The Broil feature is preset to start broiling at 550°F however, the Broil feature temperature may be set at any temperature
between 400°F and 550°F. The broil pan and broil pan insert used together allows dripping grease to drain and be kept away from the high heat of the
oven broiler. DO NOT use the broil pan without the insert (See Fig. 5). DO NOT cover the broil pan insert with aluminum foil. The exposed grease could catch fire.
Should an oven fire occur, leave the oven door closed and turn the oven OFF. If the fire continues, throw
baking soda on the fire or use a fire extinguisher. DO NOT put water or flour on the fire. Flour may be explosive and water can cause a grease fire to spread and cause personal injury.
INSTRUCTIONS
To set the oven to broil at the default setting (550°F):
1. Place the broiler pan insert on the broiler pan. Then place the food on the broiler pan insert. DO NOT use the broiler pan
without the insert. DO NOT cover the broiler insert with foil. The exposed grease could ignite.
2. Arrange the interior oven rack and place the broiler pan on the rack. Be sure to center the broiler pan directly under the broiler burner. Close the oven door. For optimum browning, preheat broil burner for 3 - 4 minutes before adding food.

Roasting Instructions for Meat Pad
Setting the Food Categories Features
The MEATS @, CAKES _ and BREADS @ pads in
the Food Categories feature are used when cooking certain food items. These pads have been designed to give optimum cook performance for the
foods selected in each category.
The MEATS pad combines a cook cycle with the convection fan and element to roast meats and poultry. Preheating is not necessary for meats and poultry. Heated air circulates around the food from all sides, sealing in juices and flavors. Foods are crispy brown on the outside while staying moist on the inside.
The CAKES pad provides a preheat with a gentle cycling of heat giving cakes more volume and allowing delicate foods to cook more evenly.
The BREADS pad adds a preheat feature to the bake cycle to thoroughly heat the oven from top to bottom to give more evenly browned foods. Refer to Fig. 4 for foods to cook in each category.

Roasting Rack Instructions
When preparing meats for convection roasting, use the broiler pan and insert along with the roasting rack. The broiler pan will catch grease spills and the insert will help prevent grease splatters. The roasting rack will allow the heat to circulate around the meat.
To prevent food from contacting the broil element and to prevent grease
splattering, DO NOT use the roasting rack when broiling.
1. Place oven rack on bottom or next to the bottom rack position. See Arranging Oven Racks in the Before Setting Oven Controls section.
2. Place the insert in the broiler pan. The roasting rack fits on the insert allowing the heated air to circulate under the food for even cooking and helps to increase browning on the underside. Make sure the roasting rack is securely seated on the insert in the broiler pan. DO NOT use the broiler pan without the insert. DO NOT
cover the insert with aluminum foil.
3. Position food (fat side up) on the roasting rack (See Fig. 5).
4. Place the broiler pan on the oven rack. 26

Setting Convection Bake Benefits of Convection Bake:
--Some foods cook up to 25 to 30% faster, saving time and energy.
--Multiple rack baking.
--No special pans or bakeware needed.
Setting Convection Bake
The CONV BAKE @ pad controls the Convection Bake feature.
Use the Convection Bake feature when cooking speed isdesired. The oven can be programmed for Convection Bake at any temperature between 325° F (163 ° C) to 550° F (288 ° C).
Convection baking uses a fan to circulate the oven's heat evenly and continuously within the oven (See Fig. 1). This improved heat distribution allows for even cooking and excellent results using multiple racks at the same time. Foods cooked on a single oven rack will generally cook faster and more evenly with Convection Bake. Multiple oven rack cooking may slightly increase cook times for some foods, but the overall result is time saved. Breads and pastries brown more
evenly.
Tips for Convection Bake
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 is not necessary when cooking casseroles with Convection Bake. _
3. When using Convection Bake with a single rack, place oven rack in position 3 or 4. If cooking on multiple racks, place the oven racks in positions 2 and 5 (using 2 racks) and positions 1,3, and 5 (using 3 racks). Refer to Fig. 1.
4. Cakes have better results when baked using the CAKES _ pad.

Preparing fora Self-Clean cycle
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

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

Ceramic Cooktop Cleaning & Maintenance
Cleaning Recommendations for the Ceramic Glass Cooktop
Cooktop Cleaning & Maintenance (for models with a Ceramic Glass Cooktop only)
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 (visit www.sears.com for replacment cleaner) to the ceramic surface. Buff with a non-abrasive cloth or 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 or dirty bottoms can mark or scratch the cooktop surface. Do not
slide anything metal or glass across the cooktop. Do not use cookware with dirt or dirt build up on bottom; replace with clean cookware before using. 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 heavy or hard objects on the ceramic glass cooktop, they
may cause it to crack.
Z
Before cleaning the cooktop, be sure the controls are turned to OFF and the cooktop is COOL. l_i_
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. _'_I....
Cleaning Recommendations for the Ceramic Glass Cooktop
(for models with a Ceramic Glass Cooktop only)
For light to moderate soil: Apply a few drops of the cooktop cleaning creme directly to the cooktop. Use a paper towel or a 3M Scotch-Brite® Blue
Multi-Purpose No Scratch Scrub Sponge 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 3M Scotch-Brite®
Blue Multi-Purpose No Scratch Scrub Sponge, applying pressure as needed. Do not use the sponge you use to clean the
cooktop for any other purpose.
o
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 with cooktop cleaning cream and buff surface clean.
Damage to the ceramic glass cooktop may occur if you use any scrub pad other than a 3M Scotch-Brite® Blue Multi-Purpose No Scratch Scrub Sponge.
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.
