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.

COOKTOP USE

Ceramic Glass

(on some models)

The surface cooking area will glow red when an element is on. Some parts of the surface cooking area may not glow red when an element is on. This is normal operation. 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 attention. 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 using a scraper 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.

■ To avoid scratches, do not slide cookware or bakeware

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.

■ 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.

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. 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.

Use the following chart as a guide for cookware material characteristics.

COOKWARE CHARACTERISTICS

Aluminum ■ Heats quickly and evenly.

■ Suitable for all types of cooking.

■ Medium or heavy thickness is best for

most cooking tasks.

Cast iron

Ceramic or Ceramic glass

Copper

Earthenware

■ Heats slowly and evenly.

■ Good for browning and frying.

■ Maintains heat for slow cooking.

■ Follow manufacturer’s instructions.

■ Heats slowly, but unevenly.

■ Ideal results on low to medium heat

settings.

■ Heats very quickly and evenly.

■ Follow manufacturer’s instructions.

■ Use on low heat settings.

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.

Porcelain enamel-onsteel or cast iron

Stainless steel

■ See stainless steel or cast iron.

■ Heats quickly, but unevenly.

■ A core or base of aluminum or copper

on stainless steel provides even heating.

Page 10

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 2 surface cooking areas, elements or

surface burners at the same time.

■ On ceramic glass models, use only flat-bottomed canners.

■ For more information, contact your local agricultural

department. Companies that manufacture home canning products can also offer assistance.

When the set temperature is reached, if on, 1 tone will sound.

3. Press OFF when finished cooking.

Page 22

Broil

Broiling uses direct radiant heat to cook food. There are 2 broiling choices, Full Broil and Center Broil. Full Broil uses both top elements for maximum browning coverage of foods. Center Broil uses the inner element for browning coverage of a smaller area.

■ For best results, use a broiler pan and grid. 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 W10123240.

■ 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.

■ 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.

■ If the oven door is opened during broiling, the broil element

will turn off immediately and come back on once the door is closed.

Before broiling, position rack according to the Broiling Chart. It is not necessary to preheat the oven before putting food in unless recommended in the recipe. Position food on grid in the broiler pan, then place it in the center of the oven rack.

Close the door to ensure proper broiling operation.

To Broil:

1. Press BROIL once for FULL BROIL or twice for CENTER

BROIL. Choose Full Broil when broiling larger amounts of food with

both broil elements. Choose Center Broil when broiling smaller amounts of food with only the inner broil element.

2. Press START.

3. Press OFF when finished.

BROILING CHART

For best results, place food 3" (7 cm) or more from the broil element. Times are guidelines only and may need to be adjusted for individual tastes. Recommended rack positions are numbered from the bottom (1) to the top (4). For diagram, see the “Positioning Racks and Bakeware” section.

5. Press OFF when finished.

Convection Cooking

(on some models)

In a convection oven, the fan-circulated hot air continually distributes heat more evenly than the natural movement of air in a standard thermal oven. This movement of hot air helps maintain a consistent temperature throughout the oven, cooking foods more evenly, crisping surfaces while sealing in moisture and yielding crustier breads.

Most foods can be cooked by lowering cooking temperatures 25°F to 50°F (14°C to 28°C), and cooking time can be shortened by as much as 30 percent, especially for large turkeys and roasts.

■ It is important not to cover foods with lids or aluminum foil so

that surface areas remain exposed to the circulating air, allowing browning and crisping.

■ Keep heat loss to a minimum by opening the oven door only

when necessary.

■ Choose cookie sheets without sides and roasting pans with

lower sides to allow air to move freely around the food.

Page 23

■ Test baked goods for doneness a few minutes before the

minimum cooking time with a method such as using a toothpick.

WARNING

Burn Hazard Use an oven mitt to remove temperature probe. Do not touch broil element. Failure to follow these instructions can result in burns.

■ Use a meat thermometer or the temperature probe (on some

models) to determine the doneness of meats and poultry.

EasyConvect™ Conversion

(on some models)

Convection cooking temperatures and times can differ from those of standard cooking. Depending upon the selected category, EasyConvect™ conversion automatically may reduce the standard recipe temperature and/or time you input for convection cooking.

Foods are grouped into 3 general categories. Choose the category most appropriate for the food to be cooked. To ensure optimal cooking results, the oven will prompt a food check at the end of a non-delayed cook time. Use the following chart as a guide.

SETTING FOODS MEATS Baked potatoes, Chicken: whole and pieces

Meat loaf, Roasts: pork, beef and ham

(Turkey and large poultry are not included because their cook time varies.)

BAKED GOODS

OTHER FOODS

To Use :

When using convection temperature conversion for BAKED GOODS and OTHER FOODS, allow the oven to preheat before placing food in the oven.

Convection Bake

(on some models)

Convection Bake can be used to bake and cook foods on single or multiple racks. It is helpful to stagger items on the racks to allow a more even flow of heat. If the oven is full, extra cooking time may be needed.

When cooking an oven meal with several different types of foods, be sure to select recipes that require similar temperatures. Cookware should sit in the oven with at least 1" (2.5 cm) of space between the cookware and the sides of the oven.

Allow the range to preheat before placing food in the oven. During convection baking preheat, the broil elements and the

bake element all heat the oven cavity. After preheat, the convection element will cycle on and off in intervals to maintain oven temperature, while the fan constantly circulates the hot air.

If the oven door is opened during convection baking or preheating, the convection element and fan will turn off immediately. They will come back on once the door is closed.

■ Reduce recipe temperature 25°F (14°C). The cook time may

need to be reduced also.

To Convection Bake:

Before convection baking, position racks according to the “Positioning Racks and Bakeware” section.

1. Press CONVECT BAKE.

Press the number pads to enter a temperature other than 325°F (163°C). The convection bake range can be set between 170°F and 500°F (77°C and 260°C).

2. Press START.

“Preheating” will show in the display until the set temperature is reached.

“Lo” will also appear in the display if the actual oven temperature is under 170°F (77°C).

When the actual oven temperature reaches 170°F (77°C), the oven display will show the oven temperature increasing in 1-degree increments.

When the set temperature is reached, if on, 1 tone will sound.

3. Press OFF when finished cooking.

Convection Roast

(on some models)

Convection Roast can be used to roast meat and poultry, and bake foods, such as yeast breads, pies, loaf, bundt and tube cakes on a single rack. During convection roasting, the bake and broil elements will cycle on and off in intervals to maintain oven temperature, while the fan constantly circulates the hot air.

If the oven door is opened during convection roasting, the broil element and convection fan will turn off immediately and the bake element will turn off within 2 minutes. They will come back on once the door is closed.

■ Reduce recipe temperature 25°F (14°C). The cook time may

need to be reduced also.

To Convection Roast:

Before convection roasting, position racks according to the “Positioning Racks and Bakeware” section. It is not necessary to wait for the oven to preheat before putting food in, unless recommended in the recipe.

Use the roasting rack on top of the broiler pan and grid. This holds the food above the grid and allows air to circulate completely around all surfaces.

Convection Broil

(on some models)

Convection Broil is ideal for cooking foods such as thinner cuts of meat; filets of fish; boneless, skinless chicken; vegetables and garlic bread.

During convection broiling, the broil elements will cycle on and off in intervals to maintain oven temperature, while the fan constantly circulates the hot air. The circulating air creates a seal on all sides of the food so that turning of foods is often not necessary.

The temperature is preset at 450°F (232°C), but can be changed to a different temperature. Cooking times will vary depending on the rack position and temperature and may need to be adjusted.

If the oven door is opened during convection broiling, the broil elements and fan will turn off after 30 seconds. They will come back on once the door is closed.

To Convection Broil:

Before convection broiling, see “Broil” section for general broiling guidelines. Position rack.

Allow the oven to preheat for 5 minutes. Position food on the unheated grid on the broiler pan, then place it in the center of the oven rack with the longest side parallel to the door.

Close the door.

1. Press CONVECT BROIL.

Press the number pads to enter a temperature other than 500°F (260°C). The convection broil range can be set between 300°F and 500°F (149°C and 260°C).

2. Press START.

The set oven temperature will appear on the oven display until oven is turned off.

3. Press OFF when finished cooking.

Self-Cleaning Cycle

(on some models)

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 from

the oven. The broiler pan and grid are not included.

■ 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 and Storage Drawer:

■ Remove plastic items from the cooktop because they may

melt.

■ Remove all items from the storage drawer.

Roast, Boneless MED HI

Roasted Chicken MED HI

Soft Rolls LOW

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.

Page 27

The oven is preset for a 2 hour 30 minute clean cycle, however the time can be changed. There are 5 levels of clean. Suggested clean times are 2 hours 30 minutes for light soil and between 3 hours 30 minutes and 4 hours 30 minutes for average to heavy soil. Use the following chart as a guide to determine the desired cleaning level.

CLEANING LEVEL

TOTAL CLEANING TIME (includes a 30 minute cool down time)

1 (Quick) 2 hours 30 minutes 23 hours 3 (Regular) 3 hours 30 minutes 44 hours 5 (Maxi) 4 hours 30 minutes

Once the oven has completely cooled, remove ash with a damp cloth. To avoid breaking the glass, do not apply a cool damp cloth to the inner door glass before it has completely cooled.

The oven light will not work during the Self-Cleaning cycle. On some Canadian models, the surface elements will not work

during the Self-Cleaning cycle.
