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 NEAR THESE

BURNERS, OVEN BURNERS ORINTERIOR 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.

the power resumes, the oven will begin to operate again. Once
the power resumes, reset the clock and oven function.

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.

* 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 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.

Setting Convection Bake

Benefits of Convection Bake: I

--Multiple oven rack baking.

--No spec a pans or bakeware needed.

Setting Convection Bake

The CONV BAKE _ pad controls the Convection Bake feature.
Use the Convection Bake feature when cooking speed is desired. The

oven can be programmed for Convection Bake at any temperature
between 300°F (149 ° 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 istime 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

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 Cook Time or a Delay Start.

Some tips you should review for best possible results using Slow Cook feature:

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

, When using a single rack, place in position 2 or 3.

Position multiple racks to accommodate size of cooking utensils when cooking multiple food item.
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 extended.
Cover the foods to keep them moist or use a loose or vented type cover to allow foods to turn crisp or brown.
Roasts may be left uncovered so browning can occur. Cook times will vary; depending on the weight, fat content, bone &

the shape of the roast.
Use the recipe's recommended food temperature and a food thermometer to determine when the food isdone.

Preheating the oven will not be necessary when using the Slow Cook feature.

Self=Cleaning

Preparing for a 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
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.

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.

Note: See additional cleaning
information for the oven door in the

General Care & Cleaning section.

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

Solutions to Common Problems (cont'd)

OCCURRENCE POSSIBLE CAUSE/SOLUTION

Oven smokes excessively during broiling. Meat is too close to the broil burner. Reposition the oven rack to provide more

clearance between the meat and the broiler burner.
Meat not properly prepared. Remove excess fat from meat. Slash remaining fatty

edges to prevent curling, but do not cut into the lean.
Broiler pan used without insert or insert covered with foil. DO NOT use the broiler

pan without the insert or cover the insert with foil.
Broiler pan and insert needs to be cleaned. Excessive smoking is caused by a

build-up of grease or food spatters. If broiling often, clean on a regular basis (some
models).

Oven Door is open. Close the oven door before starting to broil.

cleaned with a stiff nylon brush and water or a nylon scrubber. Be careful not to
damage the oven gasket.

Excessive spillovers in oven. Set Self-Cleaning cycle for a longer cleaning time.
