Important Safety Notice
and Warning
The California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement
Act of 1986 (Proposition 65] requires the Governor of
California to publish a list of substances known to the
State of California to cause cancer or reproductive harm,
and requires businesses to warn customers of potential
exposures to such substances.
Users of this appliance are hereby warned that when the
oven isengaged in the self-clean cycle, there may be
some low-level exposure to some of the listed substances,
including carbon monoxide. Exposure to these substances
can be minimized by properly venting the oven to the
outdoors by opening the windows and/or door in the room
where the appliance is located during the self-clean cycle.
IMPORTANT NOTICE REGARDING PET BIRDS: Never
keep pet birds in the kitchen or in rooms where the fumes
from the kitchen could reach. Birds have a very sensitive
respiratory system. Fumes released during an oven
self-cleaning cycle may be harmful or fatal to birds. Fumes
released due to overheated cooking oil, fat, margarine and
overheated non-stick cookware may be equally harmful.
Clean only parts listed in this guide.

Self-Clean Oven
The self-clean cycle uses above-normal cooking temperatures to automatically clean the oven interior.
The oven should be cleaned regularly by wiping up spillovers to prevent excessive smoke and flare-ups. Do not allow a
heavy build-up of soil to accumulate in the oven. During the cleaning process, the kitchen should be well
ventilated to get rid of normal odors associated with cleaning.
Before Self=Cleaning
1. Turn off the oven light before cleaning. The light may burn out during the clean cycle.
2.
Remove all pans and oven racks from the oven. The oven racks will discolor and may not slide easily after a self-
clean cycle if they are not removed.
.
Clean oven frame, door frame, area outside of gasket, and around the
opening in the door gasket with a nonabrasive cleaner such as Bon
Ami* or detergent and water. The
self-cleaning process does not clean these areas. They should be
cleaned to prevent soil from baking on during the clean cycle. (:Thegasket isthe seal around
the oven door and window.)
4. To prevent damage, do not clean or rub the gasket around the oven door. The gasket isdesigned to seal in heat
during the clean cycle.
5. Wipe up excess grease or spillovers from the oven bottom.
This prevents excessive smoking, flare-ups or flaming
during the clean cycle.
.
Wipe up sugary and acidic spillovers such as sweet
potatoes, tomato, or milk-based sauces. Porcelain enamel isacid-resistant, not acid-proof. The porcelain finish may
discolor if acidic spills are not wiped up before aself-clean cycle.

settings as quickly as coil elements.
* in the event of a potential boilover, remove the pan from
the cooking surface.
* Never attempt te lift the cooktop. ', The smoothtop surface may appear discolored when it is
hot. This is normal and will disappear when the surface cools.
Cooking Areas
The cooking areas on your range are identified by permanent circles on the smoothtop surface. For most efficient cooking,
fit the pan size to the element size.
Pans should net extend mere than !/2 to 1=inch beyond
the cooking area.
When a control is turned on, a glow can be seen through the smoothtop surface. The element will cycle on and off to
maintain the preset heat setting, even on High.

Notes:
Use only cookware and dishes recommended as safe for oven and cooktop use.
Always use oven mitts when removing food from the Warming Center as cookware and plates will be hot.
All foods should be covered with a lid or aluminum foil to
maintain food quality.
When warming pastries and breads the cover should have
an opening to allow moisture to escape. Do not use plastic wrap to cover foods. Plastic may melt
on to the surface and be very difficult to clean.
Tips to Protect the Smoothtop Surface
Cleaning (see page 6 for more information)
, Before first use, clean the cooktop. , Clean your cooktop daily or after each use. This will keep
your cooktop lookinggood and can prevent damage.
, If a spillover occurs while cooking, immediatelyclean the
spill from the cooking area while it ishot to prevent a tough cleaning chore later. Using extreme care,wipe spill with a
clean, dry towel.
, Do not allow spills to remain on the cooking area or the
cooktop trim for a long period of time.
, Never use abrasive cleansing powders or scouring pads
which will scratch the cooktop.
, Never use chlorine bleach, ammonia or other cleansers not
specifically recommended for use on glass-ceramic.
To Prevent Marks and Scratches
, Do not use glass pans.They may scratch the surface.
Never place a trivet or wok ring between the surface and pan. These items can mark or etch the top.
Do not slide aluminum pans across a hot surface. The pans may leave marks which need to be removed promptly. (See
Cleaning, page 6.)
Make sure the surface and the pan bottom are clean before turning on to prevent scratches.
To prevent scratching or damage to the glass-ceramic top, do not leave sugar, salt or fats on the cooking area. Wipe
the cooktop surface with a clean cloth or paper towel before using.
Never slide heavy metal pans across the surface since these may scratch.
To Prevent Stains
Never use a soiled dish cloth or sponge to clean the
cooktop surface. A film will remain which may cause stains on the cooking surface after the area is heated.
Continuously cooking on a soiled surface may/will result in a permanent stain.
To Prevent Other Damage
, Do not allow plastic, sugar or foods with high sugar
content to melt onto the hot cooktop. Should this happen, clean immediately.(See Cleaning, pages 5-6.)
, Never let a pan boil dry as this will damage the surface and
pan.
, Never use cooktop as awork surface or cutting board. , Never cook food directly on the surface.
, Do not use a small pan on a large element. Not only does
this waste energy, but it can also result in spillovers burning onto the cooking area which requires extra cleaning.
Do not use non-flat specialty itemsthat are oversized or uneven such as round bottom woks, rippled bottom and/or
oversized canners and griddles. Do not use foil or foil-type containers. Foil may melt onto
the glass. If metal melts on the cooktop, do not use.Call an authorized servicer.
Cookware Recommendations
Using the right cookware can prevent many problems, such as food taking longer to cook or achieving inconsistent
results. Proper pans will reduce cooking times, use less energy, and cook food more evenly.
Fiat Pan Tests
See if your pans are flat.
The Ruler Test:
1. Place a ruler across the bottom of the pan.
2. Hold it up to the light.
3. Little or no light should be visible under the ruler. The Bubble Test:
1. Put 1 inchof water inthe pan. Place on cooktop and turn
control to High.
2. Watch the formation of the bubbles as the water heats. Uniform bubbles mean good performance, and uneven
bubbles indicate hot spots and uneven cooking.

Canning and Oversize
Cookware
All canners and large pots must have fiat bottoms and must be made from heavy=gauge materials. This iscritical
on smoothtop surfaces. The base must not be more than
1 inch larger than the element.
When canners and pots do not meet these standards, cooking times may be longer, and cooktops may be damaged.
Some canners are designed with smaller bases for use on smoothtop surfaces.
When canning, use the High heat setting only until the water comes to a boil or pressure is reached in the canner.
Reduce to the lowest heat setting that maintains the boil or pressure. If the heat is not turned down, the cooktop may be
damaged.
