IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock,
injury to persons, or damage when using the range, follow basic precautions, including the following:
WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF TIPPING OF
THE RANGE, THE RANGE MUST BE SECURED BY PROPERLY INSTALLED ANTI-TIP DEVICES. TO CHECK IF THE DEVICES ARE INSTALLED PROPERLY, SLIDE RANGE FORWARD, LOOK FOR ANTI-TIP BRACKET SECURELY ATTACHED TO FLOOR OR WALL, AND SLIDE RANGE BACK SO REAR RANGE FOOT IS UNDER ANTI-TIP BRACKET.
CAUTION: Do not store items of interest to children in
cabinets above a range or on the backguard of a range – children climbing on the range to reach items could be seriously injured.
Proper Installation – Be sure the range is properly installed
and grounded by a qualified technician.
Never Use the Range for Warming or Heating the Room.
Do Not Leave Children Alone – Children should not be left
alone or unattended in area where the range is in use. They should never be allowed to sit or stand on any part of the range.
Wear Proper Apparel – Loose-fitting or hanging garments
should never be worn while using the range.
User Servicing – Do not repair or replace any part of the
range unless specifically recommended in the manual. All other servicing should be referred to a qualified technician.
Storage in or on the Range – Flammable materials should
not be stored in an oven or near surface units.
Do Not Use Water on Grease Fires – Smother fire or flame
or use dry chemical or foam-type extinguisher.
Use Only Dry Potholders – Moist or damp potholders on
hot surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do not let potholder touch hot heating elements. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth.
DO NOT TOUCH SURFACE UNITS OR AREAS NEAR
UNITS – Surface units may be hot even though they are dark in color. Areas near surface units may become hot enough to cause burns. During and after use, do not touch, or let clothing or other flammable materials contact surface units or areas near units until they have had sufficient time to cool. Among those areas are the cooktop and surfaces facing the cooktop.
Use Proper Pan Size – The range is equipped with one or
more surface units of different size. Select utensils having flat bottoms large enough to cover the surface unit heating element. The use of undersized utensils will expose a portion of the heating element to direct contact and may result in ignition of clothing. Proper relationship of utensil to burner will also improve efficiency.
Never Leave Surface Units Unattended at High Heat
Settings – Boilover causes smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite.
Make Sure Reflector Pans or Drip Bowls Are in Place –
Absence of these pans or bowls during cooking may subject wiring or components underneath to damage.
Protective Liners – Do not use aluminum foil to line surface
unit drip bowls or oven bottoms, except as suggested in the manual. Improper installation of these liners may result in a 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 range-top service without breaking due to the sudden change in temperature.
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, the handle of a utensil should be positioned so that it is turned inward, and does not extend over adjacent surface units.
Do Not Soak Removable Heating Elements – Heating
elements should never be immersed in water.
Do Not Cook on Broken Cooktop – If 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 With Caution – If a wet sponge or cloth is
used to wipe spills on a hot cooking area, be careful to avoid steam burn. Some cleaners can produce noxious fumes if applied to a hot surface.
Use Care When Opening Door – Let hot air or steam
escape before removing or replacing food.
Do Not Heat Unopened Food Containers – Build-up of
pressure may cause container to burst and result in injury.
Keep Oven Vent Ducts Unobstructed.
Placement of Oven Racks – Always place oven racks in
desired location while oven is cool. If rack must be moved while oven is hot, do not let potholder contact hot heating element in oven.
DO NOT TOUCH HEATING ELEMENTS OR INTERIOR
SURFACES OF OVEN – Heating elements may be hot even though they are dark in color. Interior surfaces of an oven become hot enough to cause burns. During and after use, do not touch, or let clothing or other flammable materials contact heating elements or interior surfaces of oven until they have had sufficient time to cool. Other surfaces of the appliance may become hot enough to cause burns – among these surfaces are oven vent openings and surfaces near these openings, oven doors, and windows of oven doors.
For self-cleaning ranges –
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.
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.
Clean Only Parts Listed in Manual.
Before Self-Cleaning the Oven – Remove broiler pan and
other utensils.
For units with ventilating hood –
Clean Ventilating Hoods Frequently – Grease should not
be allowed to accumulate on hood or filter.
When flambeing foods under the hood, turn the fan on.

other surface cooking areas are being used. The Warmer Zone element area will not glow red when cycling
on. However, the Element On light will glow while the Warmer Zone element is in use. The Hot Surface light will glow as long as the Warmer Zone element area is too hot to touch.
Use only cookware and dishes recommended for oven and
cooktop use.
Cover all foods with a lid or aluminum foil. When warming
baked goods, allow a small opening in the cover for moisture to escape.
To avoid damage to the cooktop, do not use plastic wrap to
cover food because the plastic wrap may melt.
Use pot holders or oven mitts to remove food.
To Use :
1. To turn on, press WARMER ZONE and then AUTOSET.
2. To turn off, press WARMER ZONE.
Ceramic Glass
The surface cooking area will glow red when an element is on. It may cycle on and off to maintain the selected heat level.
It is normal for the surface of light colored ceramic glass to appear to change color when surface cooking areas are hot. As the glass cools, it will return to its original color.
Cleaning off the cooktop before and after each use will help keep it free from stains and provide the most even heating. On cooktops with light colored ceramic glass, soils and stains may be more visible, and may require more cleaning and care. Cooktop cleaner and a cooktop scraper are recommended. For more information, see “General Cleaning” section.
Avoid storing jars or cans above the cooktop. Dropping a
heavy or hard object onto the cooktop could crack the cooktop.
To avoid damage to the cooktop, do not leave a hot lid on the
cooktop. As the cooktop cools, air can become trapped between the lid and the cooktop, and the ceramic glass could break when the lid is removed.
For foods containing sugar in any form, clean up all spills and
soils as soon as possible. Allow the cooktop to cool down slightly. Then, while wearing oven mitts, remove the spills while the surface is still warm. If sugary spills are allowed to cool down, they can adhere to the cooktop and can cause pitting and permanent marks.
7
To avoid scratches, do not slide cookware or bakeware
C
across the cooktop. Aluminum or copper bottoms and rough finishes on cookware or bakeware could leave scratches or marks on the cooktop.
Do not cook popcorn in prepackaged aluminum containers
on the cooktop. They could leave aluminum marks that cannot be removed completely.
To avoid damage to the cooktop, do not allow objects that
could melt, such as plastic or aluminum foil, to touch any part of the entire cooktop.
To avoid damage to the cooktop, do not use the cooktop as a
cutting board.
Use cookware about the same size as the surface cooking
area. Cookware should not extend more than ½" (1.3 cm) outside the area.
B
A
A. Surface cooking area B. Cookware/canner C. ½" (1.3 cm) Maximum overhang
Use flat-bottomed cookware for best heat conduction and
energy efficiency. Cookware with rounded, warped, ribbed or dented bottoms could cause uneven heating and poor cooking results.
Determine flatness by placing the straight edge of a ruler
across the bottom of the cookware. While you rotate the ruler, no space or light should be visible between it and the cookware.
Cookware designed with slightly indented bottoms or small
expansion channels can be used.
Make sure the bottoms of pots and pans are clean and dry
before using them. Residue and water can leave deposits when heated.
To avoid damage to the cooktop, do not cook foods directly
on the cooktop.
Hot Surface Indicator Light
On coil element and ceramic glass models, the hot surface indicator light is located on the console panel.
The hot surface indicator light will glow as long as any surface cooking area is too hot to touch, even after the surface cooking area(s) is turned off.
On coil element models, the installation of a Canning Unit Kit
is recommended. If a kit is not installed, the life of the coil element will be shortened. See “Assistance or Service” for instructions on ordering.
For instructions on ordering, contact your local U.S.
Government Agricultural Department Extension Office. Companies that manufacture home canning products can also offer assistance.
Cookware
IMPORTANT: Do not leave empty cookware on a hot surface
cooking area, element or surface burner. Ideal cookware should have a flat bottom, straight sides and a
well-fitting lid, and the material should be of medium-to-heavy thickness.
Rough finishes may scratch the cooktop or grates. Aluminum and copper may be used as a core or base in cookware. However, when used as a base they can leave permanent marks on the cooktop or grates.
Cookware material is a factor in how quickly and evenly heat is transferred, which affects cooking results. A nonstick finish has the same characteristics as its base material. For example, aluminum cookware with a nonstick finish will take on the properties of aluminum.
Cookware with nonstick surfaces should not be used under the broiler.
Use the following chart as a guide for cookware material characteristics.
COOKWARE CHARACTERISTICS

Ideal results on low to medium heat
settings.
Heats very quickly and evenly.
Follow manufacturer’s instructions.
Use on low heat settings.
Home Canning
When canning for long periods, alternate the use of surface cooking areas, elements or surface burners between batches. This allows time for the most recently used areas to cool.
Center the canner on the grate or largest surface cooking
area or element. On electric cooktops, canners should not extend more than ½" (1.3 cm) beyond the surface cooking area or element.
Do not place canner on two surface cooking areas, elements
or surface burners at the same time.
On ceramic glass models, use only flat-bottomed canners.

OVEN USE
Odors and smoke are normal when the oven is used the first few times, or when it is heavily soiled.
IMPORTANT: The health of some birds is extremely sensitive to the fumes given off. Exposure to the fumes may result in death to certain birds. Always move birds to another closed and well­ventilated room.
Aluminum Foil
IMPORTANT: To avoid permanent damage to the oven bottom
finish, do not line the oven bottom with any type of foil, liners or cookware.
For best cooking results, do not cover entire rack with foil
because air must be able to move freely for best cooking results.
To catch spills, place foil on rack below dish. Make sure foil is
at least ½" (1.3 cm) larger than the dish and that it is turned up at the edges.
Positioning Racks and Bakeware
IMPORTANT: To avoid permanent damage to the porcelain
finish, do not place food or bakeware directly on the oven door or bottom.
Racks
Position racks before turning on the oven.
Do not position racks with bakeware on them.
Make sure racks are level.
The upper oven is equipped with 1 rack.
The lower oven may be equipped with a RollerGlide™, a half
rack and/or regular flat racks.
RollerGlide™ Rack
For best cooking results, when baking on 1 rack, use the
RollerGlide™ rack.
When baking on 2 racks, use the RollerGlide™ rack in the
bottom rack position, and a flat rack in the upper rack position.
When roasting large cuts of meat and poultry, use the
RollerGlide™ rack for ease of movement.
Half Rack
The half rack with removable insert is a space maximizer. When the 2 are attached, they make a full rack.
The insert can also be removed to provide room for large items such as a turkey and casseroles.

A. Oven vent
The oven vent releases hot air and moisture from the oven, and should not be blocked or covered. Blocking or covering the vent will cause poor air circulation, affecting cooking and cleaning results. Do not set plastics, paper or other items that could melt or burn near the oven vent.
Baking
Before baking, position racks according to the “Positioning Racks and Bakeware” section.
If the lower oven is not in use, the upper oven will preheat
more quickly.
Allow at least ½" (1.3 cm) between the baking pan or
casserole and the top element in the upper oven. Loaf, angel food or bundt pans are not recommended in the upper oven.
When baking frozen, self-rise pizza in the upper oven, place
the pizza on a cookie sheet to avoid overbrowning.
When preheating with a baking/pizza stone inside the upper
oven, do not set oven above 400°F (205°C). To use baking/ pizza stones at temperatures above 400°F (205°C) in the upper oven, put stone in after the preheat beep.
The back part of the lower oven bake element will not glow
red during baking. This is normal.

When the set oven temperature is reached, one long beep will sound and “PREHEAT” will disappear from the display.
Broiling
Broiling uses direct radiant heat to cook food. The lower the temperature, the slower the cooking. Thicker cuts and unevenly shaped pieces of meat, fish and poultry may cook better at lower broiling temperatures.
For best results, use a broiler pan and grid (provided on some
models). It is designed to drain juices and help avoid spatter and smoke.
If you would like to purchase a broiler pan, one may be ordered. See “Assistance or Service” section to order. Ask for Part Number 12500100.
For proper draining, do not cover the grid with foil. The
bottom of the pan may be lined with aluminum foil for easier cleaning.
Trim excess fat to reduce spattering. Slit the remaining fat on
the edges to avoid curling.
Select HI broil for most broiling. Select LO broil for low-
temperature broiling of longer cooking foods such a poultry to avoid overbrowning.
Pull out oven rack to stop position before turning or removing
food. Use tongs to turn food to avoid the loss of juices. Very thin cuts of fish, poultry or meat may not need to be turned.
After broiling, remove the pan from the oven when removing
the food. Drippings will bake on the pan if left in the heated oven, making cleaning more difficult.
To recall the set temperature during preheat, press BAKE. To change the oven temperature during preheat, press the
Bake pad twice, then press the Autoset pad or appropriate number pads until the desired temperature is displayed.
4. Place food in the oven.
To change the oven temperature during cooking, press Bake, then press the Autoset or appropriate number pads until the desired temperature is displayed.
5. Press CANCEL or STOP when finished,.
6. Remove food from the oven.
Before broiling, position rack according to the Broiling Chart. Position food on grid in the broiler pan, then place it in the center of the oven rack. Close the door to the broil stop position (about 4" [10.0 cm]) to ensure proper broiling temperature.
To Broil:
1. Open door to broil stop position.
2. Press upper or lower oven BROIL. “BROIL,” “UPPER” or
“LOWER” and “SET” will appear in the display.
3. Press AUTOSET once for HI broil or twice for LO broil. “HI” or
“LO” will be displayed. After 4 seconds the oven will start. “BROIL” and “HI” or “LO”
will remain in the display.
4. Press CANCEL or STOP when finished.
BROILING CHART
Broil times are based on a 4 minute preheat. For best results, place food 3" (7.0 cm) or more from the broil element. Times are guidelines only and may need to be adjusted for individual tastes. Turn meat halfway through cooking time. Recommended rack positions are numbered from the bottom (1) to the top (5). For diagram, see the “Positioning Racks and Bakeware” section.

(on some models)
For toasting bread and products that are toasted in a toaster or toaster oven.
Lower oven cannot be operated while upper oven is toasting.
If the lower oven is operating when the Toast pad is pressed, a beep will sound.
Toasting is based on time not temperature.
For more even browning results, preheat the oven
3 to 4 minutes.
Toasting times will be shorter when the oven is hot or when
repeated toasting functions are done.
For optimal results when toasting 4 to 5 pieces of bread or other similar items. See following illustration.
Proofing - Lower Oven Only
(on some models)
The Proofing feature can be used to raise yeast-based bread products prior to baking. There are 2 proofing methods available
- Rapid and Standard. Standard proofing in the oven protects dough from room
temperature changes or drafts that commonly affect proofing done on the countertop.
Rapid proofing provides faster proofing results than countertop or standard proofing, without harming the yeast.
For any dough that requires 1 rise, either Standard or Rapid
Proofing can be used.
For dough requiring 2 rises, Standard Proofing must be used
for the first rising period. Either Standard or Rapid Proofing can be used for the second one.
To Proof:
1. Press PROOFING once for standard and twice for rapid
proofing.
2. When proofing is complete, remove the dough from the oven
and press CANCEL or STOP.
1. Press TOAST.
2. Press AUTOSET to set 4 minutes of toasting time. Each
additional press will increase the toasting time by 10 seconds.
3. “TOAST” and “UPPER” will be displayed. The toasting time
will begin to count down. OR
Press the appropriate number pads to set the toasting time in minutes and seconds between 10 seconds and 6 minutes.
Example: To set toasting time for 2 minutes, press 2, 0, 0. Browning time may vary, watch toasting closely to avoid
over-browning.
4. Close oven door during toasting.
5. At the end of the set toasting time, the oven will beep 4 times.

Convection Cooking
(on some models)
During convection cooking, the fan provides increased hot air circulation continuously and more consistently throughout the oven. The movement of heated air around the food helps to speed up cooking by penetrating the cooler outer surfaces. Food cooks more evenly, browning and crisping outer surfaces while sealing moisture inside.
During the Convect function, the ring element operates, along with the fan, to provide an indirect source of heat in the oven cavity. If the oven door is opened during convection cooking or preheating, the element(s) and fan will turn off immediately. Once the door is closed, they will come back on.
It is important not to cover foods so that surface areas remain
exposed to the circulating air, allowing browning and crisping.
Keep heat loss to a minimum by only opening the oven door
when necessary.
Choose cookie sheets without sides and roasting pans with
lower sides to allow air to move freely around the food.
Test baked goods for doneness a few minutes before the
minimum cooking time with a method such as a toothpick.
Use a meat thermometer to determine the doneness of meats
and poultry. Check the temperature of pork and poultry in 2 or 3 different places.
Before convection cooking, position the rack(s) according to
the “Positioning Racks and Bakeware” section.
When using more than one rack, position bakeware/
cookware on the racks to allow movement of the fan circulated air around the food. See the “Positioning Racks and Bakeware” section.
If the oven is full, extra cooking time may be needed.
For optimal cooking results, do not cover food with aluminum
foil.

When roasting poultry and meat, use a broiler pan and grid. It
is not necessary to wait for the oven to preheat, unless recommended in the recipe.
A. Broiler grid B. Broiler pan
Preheating
During the CONVECT preheating cycle, the fan, and the bake and broil elements heat the oven cavity. When preheating is finished, the ring element cycles to maintain the oven temperature while the fan continues to constantly circulate the heated air.

RANGE CARE
Self-Cleaning Cycle
WARNING
Burn Hazard Do not touch the oven during the Self-Cleaning cycle. Keep children away from oven during
Self-Cleaning cycle. Failure to follow these instructions can result in burns.
IMPORTANT: The health of some birds is extremely sensitive to the fumes given off during the Self-Cleaning cycle. Exposure to the fumes may result in death to certain birds. Always move birds to another closed and well-ventilated room.
Self-clean the oven before it becomes heavily soiled. Heavy soil results in longer cleaning and more smoke.
Keep the kitchen well-ventilated during the Self-Cleaning cycle to help get rid of heat, odors, and smoke.
Do not block the oven vent(s) during the Self-Cleaning cycle. Air must be able to move freely. Depending on your model, see “Oven Vent” or “Oven Vents” section.
Do not clean, rub, damage or move the oven door gasket. The door gasket is essential for a good seal.
Prepare Oven:
Remove the broiler pan, grid, cookware and bakeware and,
on some models, the temperature probe from the oven.
Remove any foil from the oven because it may burn or melt,
damaging the oven.
Remove oven racks to keep them shiny and easy to slide.
See “General Cleaning” section for more information.
Hand clean inside door edge and the 1½" (3.8 cm) area
around the inside oven cavity frame, being certain not to move or bend the gasket. This area does not get hot enough during self-cleaning to remove soil. Do not let water, cleaner, etc. enter slots on door frame. Use a damp cloth to clean this area.
Wipe out any loose soil to reduce smoke and avoid damage.
At high temperatures, foods react with porcelain. Staining, etching, pitting or faint white spots can result. This will not affect cooking performance.
Prepare Cooktop:
Remove plastic items from the cooktop because they may
melt.
IMPORTANT: Oven temperature must be below 400°F (205°C) to program a
clean cycle. Only 1 oven can be cleaned at a time. Both oven doors lock when either oven is being cleaned.
How the Cycle Works
IMPORTANT: The heating and cooling of porcelain on steel in the
oven may result in discoloring, loss of gloss, hairline cracks and popping sounds.
The Self-Cleaning cycle uses very high temperatures, burning soil to a powdery ash.
The oven is preset for a 3 hour clean cycle, however the time can be changed. Suggested clean times are 2 hours for light soil and between 3 hours and 4 hours for average to heavy soil.
Once the oven has completely cooled, remove ash with a damp cloth. Do not wipe down any of the inside surfaces until the oven has completely cooled down. Applying a cool damp cloth to the inner door glass before it has completely cooled could result in the glass breaking.
The oven light will not work during the Self-Cleaning cycle.
When “LOCK” shows in the display, the door cannot be opened. To avoid damage to the door, do not force the door open when “LOCK” is displayed.
