COOKTOP USE

WARNING

Fire Hazard

Do not let the burner flame extend beyond the edge of the pan.

Turn off all controls when not cooking. Failure to follow these instructions can result in death

or fire.

Electric igniters automatically light the surface burners when control knobs are turned to .

Before setting a control knob, place filled cookware on the grate. Do not operate a burner using empty cookware or without cookware on the grate.

The flame should be adjusted so it does not extend beyond the edge of the pan.

To Set:

1. Push in and turn knob counterclockwise to .

All surface burners will click. Only the burner with the control knob turned to will produce a flame.

2. Turn knob to anywhere between HIGH and LOW.

Sealed Surface Burners

A. Burner cap B. Burner base

IMPORTANT: Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air around the burner grate edges.

Burner Cap: Always keep the burner cap in place when using a surface burner. A clean burner cap will help avoid poor ignition and uneven flames. Always clean the burner cap after a spillover and routinely remove and clean the caps according to the “General Cleaning” section.

Gas Tube Opening: Gas must flow freely throughout the gas tube opening for the burner to light properly. Keep this area free of soil and do not allow spills, food, cleaning agents, or any other material to enter the gas tube opening. Keep spillovers out of the gas tube by always using a burner cap.

C. Alignment pins D. Igniter E. Gas tube opening

REMEMBER: When range is in use or (on some models) during the Self-Cleaning cycle, the entire cooktop area may become hot.

Power Failure

In case of prolonged power failure, the surface burners can be lit manually. Hold a lit match near a burner and turn knob counterclockwise to . After burner lights, turn knob to desired setting.

A. 1 to 1¹⁄2" (2.5 to 3.8 cm) B. Burner ports

Burner Ports: Check burner flames occasionally for proper size and shape as shown in the previous illustration. A good flame is blue in color, not yellow. Keep this area free of soil and do not allow spills, food, cleaning agents, or any other material to enter the burner ports.

To Clean: IMPORTANT: Before cleaning, make sure all controls are off

and the oven and cooktop are cool. Do not use oven cleaners, bleach or rust removers.

1. Remove the burner cap from the burner base and clean

according to “General Cleaning” section.

2. Clean the gas tube opening with a damp cloth.

3. Clean clogged burner ports with a straight pin as shown.

Do not enlarge or distort the port. Do not use a wooden toothpick. If the burner needs to be adjusted, contact a trained repair specialist.

Burner Size

Select a burner that best fits your cookware. See the following illustration and chart.

Back of Range

Small

Oval

4. Replace the burner cap, making sure the alignment pins

are properly aligned with the burner cap.

A. Incorrect B. Correct

5. Turn on the burner. If the burner does not light, check cap

alignment. If the burner still does not light, do not service the sealed burner yourself. Contact a trained repair specialist.

Grates

The grates on this range cover the full width of the cooktop. The two grates may interlock (on some models), using the hook formed into one end of both grates. The flat end of one grate drops onto the hook on the other grate as shown in the following illustration.

Front of Range

Burner Size Recommended Use Small ■ Low-heating cooking

Oval ■ For longer dishes Large ■ For large cookware Extra-Large ■ Most powerful burner

Large

■ Melt chocolate or butter

■ For large cookware

Griddle

On some models, the two grates are identical and can be used on either the left or right side of the cooktop. Grates that are designed for use on only one side of the cooktop will have either “LEFT” or “RIGHT” embossed on the bottom side of the grate.

Griddle installed on right side of cooktop

To Use the Griddle:

1. Locate the griddle on the right side grate as shown.

The locating feet on the bottom of the griddle will engage the grate tines to keep the griddle from sliding.

2. Before each use, brush on a thin layer of cooking oil to

keep food from sticking. Cooking sprays may leave a sticky residue on the griddle that is hard to remove.

3. Preheat the griddle for 5 minutes. Preheating the griddle

slowly will ensure even heat distribution and will avoid warping the griddle.

4. For preheating and cooking, set the front burner to the

lowest heat setting and the rear burner to Medium-High heat for best performance.

NOTE: The griddle may also be used on the left side grate.

For best results, the rear burner setting should be set to Medium-Low or Medium, and the front burner setting should be set to Low.

To Clean the Griddle:

1. Let the griddle cool, and then empty the drip tray.

2. See the “General Cleaning” section for cleaning instructions.

3. Store griddle in a cool dry place.

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.

Cookware material is a factor in how quickly and evenly heat is transferred, which affects cooking results.

Cookware with nonstick surfaces should not be used under the broiler.

Check for 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.

Stainless steel ■ Heats quickly but unevenly.

■ A core or base of aluminum or copper on stainless steel provides even heating.

For best results, the cookware should be centered above the burner with the bottom sitting level on the grate. The flame should be adjusted so that it does not extend up the sides of the pan.

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 ■ Heats slowly and evenly.

■ Good for browning and frying.

■ Maintains heat for slow cooking.

Home Canning

When canning for long periods, alternate the use of surface burners between batches. This allows time for the most recently used areas to cool.

■ Center the canner on the grate above the burner.

■ Do not place canner on 2 surface burners at the same time.

■ For more information, contact your local agricultural

extension office, or refer to published home canning guides. Companies that manufacture home canning products can also offer assistance.

OVEN USE

See the “General Cleaning” section for more information.

A B

A. Upper oven vent B. Lower oven vent

The oven vents release hot air and moisture from the ovens and should not be blocked or covered. Blocking or covering the vents 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 vents.

Baking and Roasting

Preheating

When beginning a Bake, Convect Bake, or Convect Roast cycle, the oven will begin preheating after Start is pressed. The oven will take approximately 12 to 15 minutes to reach 350°F (177°C) with all of the oven racks provided with your oven inside the oven cavity. Higher temperatures will take longer to preheat. The preheat cycle rapidly increases the oven temperature. The actual oven temperature will go above your set temperature to offset the heat lost when your oven door is opened to insert food. This ensures that when you place your food in the oven, the oven will begin at the proper temperature. Insert your food when the preheat tone sounds. Do not open the door during preheat before the tone sounds.

Oven Temperature

While in use, the oven elements will cycle on and off as needed to maintain a consistent temperature, but they may run slightly hot or cool at any point in time due to this cycling. Opening the oven door while in use will release hot air and cool the oven which could impact the cooking time and performance. It is recommended to use the oven light to monitor cooking progress.

NOTE: On models with convection, the convection fan may run in the non-convection bake mode to improve performance.

Temperature Management System

The Temperature Management System electronically regulates the oven heat levels during preheat and bake to maintain a precise temperature range for optimal cooking results. The bake and broil elements or burners cycle on and off in intervals. On convection range models, the fan will run while preheating and may be cycled on and off for short intervals during bake to provide the best results. This feature is automatically activated when the oven is in use.

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

Broiling

Close the oven door while broiling. No preheating is necessary. Position food on grid in a broiler pan, and then place it in the center of the oven rack.

NOTE: Odors and smoke are normal the first few times the oven is used or if the oven is heavily soiled.

Changing the temperature when broiling allows more precise control when cooking. The lower the broil setting, the slower the cooking. Thicker cuts and unevenly shaped pieces of meat, fish, and poultry may cook better at lower broil settings. Refer to the “Positioning Racks and Bakeware” section for more information.

On lower settings, the broil element will cycle on and off to maintain the proper temperature.

■ 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. Please refer to the “Accessories” section for more information.

Lower Oven Convection Cooking

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.

During the convection cooking, the bake, broil, and convection (true convection only) elements cycle on and off in intervals to maintain the oven temperature, while the fan circulates the hot air.

If the oven door is opened during convection cooking, the fan will turn off immediately. It will come back on when the oven door is closed.

NOTE: The oven door must be closed for convection broiling.

Position the racks according to the “Positioning Racks and

Bakeware” section before starting convection cooking.

With convection cooking, most foods can be cooked at a lower

temperature or for a shorter length of time. These adjustments can be made using the following chart or by using the EasyConvect™ Conversion feature on your range.

Slow Cook

Slow Cook is best for food items such as beef, poultry, and pork. This cycle is available to cook food at low temperatures for long periods of time. Food can be cooked up to 12 hours depending on the temperature chosen.

Recommended Temperature Range:

4 hour cook time = 250°F to 300°F (120°C to 150°C) 8 hour cook time = 200°F to 250°F (93°C to 120°C) 12 hour cook time = 170°F to 226°F (77°C to 108°C)

■ Food should be completely thawed.

■ Cover food to keep moist.

■ Prior to Slow Roasting, meat can be pan seared or broiled on the sides to enhance browning, avor, and tenderness.

■ Use a at rack in position 3 for best results.

To Use Slow Cook:

Before using Slow Cook, see the “Positioning Racks and Bakeware” section. It is not necessary to preheat the oven.

1. Place food in the oven.

2. Press SLOW COOK for the desired oven.

3. Press the number keypads to set the desired temperature.

Proofing Bread

Proofing bread prepares the dough for baking by activating the yeast. Follow the recipe directions as a guide. Standard Proof should be used for fresh dough, thawed dough, and for the first and second rise. Rapid Proof (on some models) operates at a slightly higher temperature than Standard Proof, and it can be used for the second rise of formed dough.

To Proof:

Before first proofing, place the dough in a lightly greased bowl and cover loosely with wax paper, coated with shortening. Place in position 2, and then close the oven door.

1. Press BREAD PROOF until the desired proof is displayed

(“Standrd” or “Rapid”).

2. Press START. Let the dough rise until nearly doubled in size. Proofing time

may vary depending on dough type and quantity.

3. Press OFF when finished proofing. Before second proofing, shape the dough, place it in baking

pan(s) and then cover loosely. Follow the same placement and control steps above. Before baking, remove the cover.

NOTE: If the oven temperature is greater than 120°F (49°C), the display will indicate “oven cooling” until the temperature is below 120°F (49°C).
