COOKTOP USE

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, a wellfitting 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 it 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.

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

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.
Ceramic or Ceramic	■	Follow manufacturer’s instructions.
glass	■ Heats slowly, but unevenly.
	■ Ideal results on low to medium heat
		settings.
Copper	■ Heats very quickly and evenly.
Earthenware	■	Follow manufacturer’s instructions.
	■ Use on low heat settings.
Porcelain enamel-	■ See stainless steel or cast iron.
on-steel or cast iron
Stainless steel	■ Heats quickly, but unevenly.
	■ A core or base of aluminum or copper on
		stainless steel provides even heating.

HomeCanning

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. Canners should not extend more than ½" (1.25 cm) outside the cooking area.

■Do not place canner on two surface cooking areas, elements or surface burners at the same time.

■For more information, contact your local U.S. Government Agricultural Department Extension Office. In Canada, contact Agriculture Canada. Companies that manufacture home canning products can also offer assistance.

CooktopControls

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.

IMPORTANT: Your cooktop is factory-set for use with natural gas. If you wish to use L.P. Gas, an L.P. Gas Conversion Kit is included with your new range. Models with the TripleTier™ Flame Burner will include a TripleTier™ L.P. Gas Conversion Kit and a kit for standard ranges. See “Installation Instructions” for details on making this conversion.

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

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

NOTE: Visually check that the burner has lit. If the burner does not ignite, listen for the clicking sound. If you do not hear the igniter click, TURN THE BURNER OFF. Check for a tripped circuit breaker or blown fuse.

Check that the control knob is pressed completely down on the valve shaft. If the spark igniter still does not operate, call a trained repair specialist.

Proper grounding and polarity are necessary for correct operation of the electric ignition system. If the wall receptacle does not provide correct polarity, the igniters will become grounded and occasionally click, even after the burner has ignited. Contact a trained repair specialist to check the wall receptacle to see whether it is wired with the correct polarity.

REMEMBER: When cooktop is in use, the entire cooktop area may become hot.

Power failure

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

The oven provides accurate temperatures; however, it may cook faster or slower than your previous oven, so the temperature calibration can be adjusted. It can be changed in Fahrenheit or Celsius.

A minus sign means the oven will be cooler by the displayed amount. The absence of a sign means the oven will be warmer by the displayed amount. Use the following chart as a guide.

ADJUSTMENT °F (AUTOMATIC	COOKS FOOD
°C CHANGE)
10°F (5°C)	...a little more
20°F (10°C)	...moderately more
30°F (15°C)	...much more
-10°F (-5°C)	...a little less
-20°F (-10°C)	...moderately less
-30°F (-15°C)	...much less

To Adjust Oven Temperature Calibration:

1.Press OPTIONS, and then 6 to set the calibration.

2.Press 3 to increase the temperature, or press 6 to decrease the temperature.

Bake

The BAKE function is ideal for baking, roasting or heating casseroles.

During baking or roasting, the bake burner and broil element will cycle on and off in intervals to maintain oven temperature.

If the oven door is opened during baking or roasting, the broil element will turn off immediately and the bake burner will turn off in 30 seconds to 2 minutes. They will come back on once the door is closed.

To Bake or Roast:

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 to preheat before putting food in, unless recommended in the recipe.

1.Press BAKE once for 325°F (163°C), or press the number pads to enter a temperature. Each subsequent press of BAKE will increase the temperature by 25 degrees.

2.Press START.

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

“Preheating” will show on the oven display after a temperature of 170°F (77°C) has been reached. The temperature will be shown on the display until reaching the set point.

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

3.Press OFF when finished cooking.

Broil

This unit has both a gas burner and an electric halo element that work together to enhance broiling performance on the broiler pan and grid provided.

■Use only the broiler pan and grid provided with the range. It is designed to drain juices and help prevent spatter and smoke.

■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 prevent 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.

Broiling uses direct radiant heat to cook food. Before broiling, position rack according to 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.

To Broil:

1.Close oven door.

2.Press BROIL.

3.Press START.

4.Press OFF when finished.

Variable Temperature Broiling

Changing the temperature when Variable Temperature Broiling allows more precise control when cooking. 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.

To Vari Broil:

1.Close oven door.

2.Press BROIL.

3.Press the number pads to set a temperature between 300°F and 500°F (149°C and 260°C).

4.Press START.

The temperature can be changed after this step. START does not need to be pressed again.

5.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 4. For diagram, see the “Positioning Racks and Bakeware” section.

ConvectionCooking

(onsomemodels)

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 maintains 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 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 an alternative method such as a toothpick.

■Use a meat thermometer or the temperature probe to determine the doneness of meats and poultry. Check the temperature of pork and poultry in 2 or 3 places.

EASYCONVECT™Conversion

(onsomemodels)

Convection cooking temperatures and times differ from those of standard cooking. Depending upon the selected category, EASY CONVECT™ 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	Biscuits, Breads: quick and yeast
GOODS	Cakes: layer and angel food
	Casseroles: including frozen entrées and soufflés,
	cookies, fish
OTHER	Convenience foods: french fries, nuggets, fish sticks,
FOODS	pizza
	Pies: fruit and custard

To Use:

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

1.Press MEATS, BAKED GOODS or OTHER FOODS.

2.Press number pads to enter standard cook temperature.

3.Press number pads to enter standard cook time.

4.Press START.

“CHECK FOOD AT” and the stop time will appear on the oven display.

When the stop time is reached, end-of-cycle tones will sound if enabled. Open the door and check food.

5.Press OFF to cancel the reminder tones.

ConvectionBake

(onsomemodels)

Convection baking can be used for baking delicate cakes and pastries, as well as foods on 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.

During convection baking preheat, the bake burner and broil element heat the oven cavity. After preheat, the convection element and bake burner 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 burner 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.

“Lo°” will appear on the oven 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, one preheat completion tone will sound if tones are turned on.

3.Press OFF when finished cooking.
