"ngand Caring for Your

Cooktop

LIsill !!i:i:iiii iJ

Your cooktop has sealed gas burners with an auto-reignition system. The sealed burn-

ers spread the heat evenly across the bot- tom of the cookware and provide infinite

heat control. The auto-reignition system senses when a burner flame has gone out

and will automatically reignite that burner. 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. See the

appropriate section of the Installation Instructions for details on making this

conversion.

When to use the right rear and left front burners:

10,000 BTU burner

When to use the left rear and

right front burners:

6,000 BTU burner

Use these burners for simmering or for cooking smaller quantities of food requiring

small cookware.

10,000 BTU burner

Use these burners for cooking large quanti- ties of food, deep-fat frying, or cooking with

large cookware.

iii and Caring for Your Cooktop

Using the surface burners:

Control knobs

1. Grasp the control knob.

2. Push down and turn to HI. The electric spark ignitor will ignite the gas flowing into

the burner. When you hear a clicking sound, you know that the ignitors are

working. Gas is flowing as long as knob is

not set at OFF.

3. When the burner is lit, turn the control knob to the desired flame setting. (See the

guide under "Burner heat settings" later in this section.) You can turn the knobs to

any of the marked settings. The ignitor will turn off and the clicking will stop when the

burner ignites.

NOTES:

• The ignitors may click a number of times

before burner lights. This is normal.

, All four burner ignitors will spark

regardless of which burner you are using.

, Visually check that the burner has lit. If the

burner does not ignite, listen for the clicking sound. If you do not hear the ignitor click,

TURN THE BURNER OFF. Check that the service cord is placed firmly in the wall

receptacle. Check for a tripped circuit breaker or blown fuse.

Check that the control knob is pressed completely down on valve shaft. If the spark ignitor still fails to operate, call your nearest designated service outlet.

Proper grounding and polarity are necessary for correct operation of the electric ignition system. If the wall receptacle does not provide correct polarity, the ignitor will become grounded and click every once in a while, even after the burner has ignited.

A qualified electrician should check the wall

receptacle to see if it is wired with correct polarity.

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.

Burner heat settings

Use correct burner heat settings (see chart later in this section). If the heat setting is too

high, it can:

• Char bacon and cause curling. , Make eggs tough and crisp at the edges.

, Toughen liver, fish, and seafood. , Scorch delicate sauces and custards.

• Cause a boilover. Until you get used to the settings, use

the following as a guide.

SETTING RECOMMENDED USE

HI • To start food cooking.

• To bring liquid to a boil.

Between • To hold a rapid boil. MED and • To quickly brown or

HI sear meat. MED • To maintain a slow boil.

• To fry poultry or meat.

• To make pudding, sauce, or gravy.

Between • To stew or steam food.

MED and LO

LO • To simmer food.

!sing and Caring forYour Cooktop

In case of a prolonged power failure

Surface burners can be manually lighted.

1. Hold a lit match near a burner and turn the control knob to the HI position.

2. After the burner lights, turn the control knob to the desired setting.

NOTE: Do not leave the cooktop unattend- ed when cooking during a power failure. The auto-reignition feature of your cooktop

will not operate during a power failure.

Home canning information

The large diameter of most water-bath or

pressure canners combined with high heat settings for long periods of time can cause

damage to the cooktop.

To protect your range: * Center the canner over the surface burner.

Do not extend more than 1 inch (2.54 cm) outside the burner area.

* Do not place your canner on two surface

burners at the same time.

* Start with hot water, cover with a lid and

bring to a boil; then reduce heat to main- tain a boil or required pressure levels in a

pressure canner.

* Refer to your canner manual for specific

instructions.

For up-to-date information on canning, con- tact your local U.S. Government Agricultural Department Extension Office or companies who manufacture home canning products.

Using the right cookware makes a big difference

* The pan should have a flat bottom, straight

sides, and a well-fitting lid.

* Choose medium to heavy gauge

(thickness) cookware.

• The pan material (metal or glass) affects

how quickly and evenly the pan heats.

• When using glass or ceramic cookware,

check to make sure it is suitable for use on surface burners.

• To avoid tipping, make sure pots and pans

are centered on the grates.

The pan material affects how fast heat transfers from the surface cooking area through the pan material and how evenly heat spreads over the pan bottom. Choose pans that provide the

best cooking results.

Your cooktop is designed for ease of care. You can do most cleaning with items found

around the home. Cleaning your cooktop

whenever spills or soiling occur will help to

keep it looking and operating like new. NOTES:

• Before cleaning make sure all controls are off and the cooktop is cool.

• Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air.

• If knobs are removed while cleaning, be careful not to spill liquids through holes in the control area.

• Be careful not to allow moisture to collect in control area. Moisture could cause igni-

tor switches to fail.

Surface burners

• The burner caps should be routinely re- moved and cleaned. Always clean burner

caps after a spillover. Keeping the burner caps clean prevents improper ignition and an uneven flame.

• For proper flow of gas and ignition of the burner, DO NOT ALLOW SPILLS, FOOD,

CLEANING AGENTS, OR ANY OTHER MATERIAL TO ENTER THE GAS TUBE OPENING.

• Occasionally check the burner flames for proper size and shape as shown later in

this section. A good flame is blue in color. If flames lift off ports, are yellow, or are

noisy when turned off, you may need to clean the burners.

NOTE: To check oven burner flames for proper size and shape, see the Installation

Instructions also included with the range.

To clean burners and burner caps:

iiiii!ii!i!ii!i!ii!i!ii!i!ii!!

1. Lift the burner cap straight up from the burner base.

2. Clean burner cap with warm, soapy water and a sponge. For stubborn stains, clean

with a mildly abrasive plastic scrubbing

pad and powdered cleanser. Wipe dry. Do not clean burner cap in dishwasher.

3. If the gas tube opening or the orifice, located inside the opening, has become

soiled or clogged, use a cotton swab or a soft cloth to clean the area.

4. If ports are clogged, clean with a straight pin. Do not enlarge or distort

port. Do not leave anything stuck in the ports.

5. After cleaning the gas tube opening and ports, replace the burner cap. To re-

place burner cap, make sure cap is properly aligned and leveled.

6. Check the burner after cleaning for proper lighting.

Baking tips

The hot air must circulate around the pans in the oven for even heat to reach all parts

of the oven. This results in better baking.

For best air circulation:

• Place the pans so that one is not directly over the other.

wall or

other

pan

• For best results, allow 1½ to 2 inches (3 to 5 cm) of space around each pan and

between pans and oven walls.

• When baking with one pan, place pan in the center of the oven rack.

wall or other

pan

• When baking with two pans, place pans in opposite corners of the oven rack.

NOTES:

• "Oven peeking" may cause heat loss, longer cooking times, and unsatisfactory

baking or roasting results. Rely on your timer.

• Do not allow pans to touch the heat sensor on the left wall near the back.

Poor baking may result.

• Do not use aluminum foil when baking.

Aluminum foil may block airflow.

Rack positions

Your oven has three straight racks and five rack positions. Rack position 5 is the high-

est position, or farthest from the bottom of the oven. Rack position 1 is the lowest posi-

tion, or closest to the bottom of the oven.

Baking tips

(BAKEpad) For proper cooking, follow these

guidelines: * When using one rack, place the rack so

the top of the food will be centered in the oven.

* When using more than one rack, use

the Convection Bake setting.

* Use only one cookie sheet in the oven at

a time when using the Bake setting.

Bakeware tips

-When baking with insulated cookie

sheets or baking pans, place them in the

bottom third of the oven. You may need to increase the recommended baking times,

so test for doneness before removing from the oven.

,,When using ovenproof glassware or

dark bakeware, reduce the oven tempera- ture by 25°F (16°C), but use the same

baking time. Because these pans absorb heat, producing darker bottom browning

and crispier crusts, place the rack in the center of the oven. When baking pies and

bread, you can use the temperature sug- gested in the recipe.

Rack placement for specific foods:

For rack positions, see "Rack positions" in _revious column.)

Angel food and bundt cakes, most quick breads, yeast 1 or 2

cakes, nonfrozen pies

NOTE: For additional baking tips see "Baking or convection baking" in this section.

Convection baking tips

(CONVECTION BAKEpad) * Do not use aluminum foil when convection

baking. Aluminum foil may block airflow.

* Reduce recommended standard cooking tem-

peratures by approximately 25°F (16°C). The cooking times can also be reduced for most

recipes. See recipes and cooking charts in your convection oven cookbook for recom-

mended temperatures and times, or use EASY CONVECT TM Conversion (later in this section).

NOTE: Cooking time may be longer when you use more than one rack.

* When baking on two or three racks, use

the Convection Bake setting for more even results. (You can, however, use only one rack

when Convection Baking.)

* To use three racks during convection

baking, place one rack in position 5 (the highest position), another rack in position

1 (the closest to the oven bottom), and the

third rack in position 3. This allows all three racks to be an equal distance apart for

better baking.

* Stagger cake pans or other cookware in

opposite directions on each rack when three racks are used.
