Smoothtop Surface
Smoothtop Surface Notes:
. Cooktop may emit mightsmoke and odor the first few
times the cooktop is used. This is normal
. Smoothtop cooktops retain heat for a period of time
after the element is turned off. Turn the dements off
a few minutes before food is compHeteHycooked and use
the retained heat to compHetecooking. When the hot
surface Hightturns off, the cooking area wH]be coo]
enough to touch. Because of the way they retain heat, the
smoothtop dements wH] not respond to changes in
settings as quickHyas coil dements.
° In the event of a potentia] believer, remove the pan from
the cooking surface.
, Never attempt to miftthe cooktop.
° The smoothtop surface may appear discoHoredwhen it is
hot. This is norma] and will] disappear when the surface
cooHs.
Cooking Areas
The cooking areas on your range are identified by permanent
circHeson the smoothtop surface. For most efficient cooking,
fit the pan size to the dement size.
Pans should not extend more than ,/2 to t-inch beyond
the cooking area.
When a controHis turned on, a gHowcarl be seen through the
smoothtop surface. The element will cycle on and off to
maintain the preset heat setting, even on Hi.

, Do not slide aluminum pans across a hot surface. The pans
may leave marks which need to be removed promptly. (See
Cleaning, page 21.:}
, 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.
Note: When using the normal settings for preparing foods,
it may take a few minutes for the cooking area to cool to
the Warm heat setting.
Tips to Protect the
Smoothtop Surface
CJea|li|lg (see page 21 for more information:}
, Before first use, dean the cooktop.
, Clean your cooktop daily or after each use. This will keep
your cooktop looking good and can prevent damage.
, [f a spillover occurs while cooking, immediately clean the
spill from the cooking area while it is hot 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 & 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,
To Prevent Stains
, Never use a soiled dish cloth or sponge to dean the
eooktop surface, A fihll 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, page 21.:}
, Never let a pan boil dry as this will damage the surface and
pan,
° Never use cooktop as a work surface or cutting board,
, Never cook food directly on the surface,
, Do not use a small pan on a large dement, 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-fiat specialty items that 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 Maytag Servicer.

Cookware Recommendations
Using the right cookware can prevent many proMems, such
as food taking bnger to cook or achieving inconsistent
resuits, Proper pans will reduce cooking times, use Hess
energy, and cook food more eveniy,
Nat Pan Tests
See if your pans are fiat,
The RumorTest:
1, Hace a rubr across the bottom of the pan,
2, Hoid it up to the Hight,
3, Litde or no Hightshouid be vbiMe under the rubr,
The Babble Test:
1, Put 1 inch of water in the pan, Pbce on cooktop and turn
controi to High,
2, Watch the formation of the bubMes as the water heats,
Uniform bubbbs mean good performance, and uneven
bubMes indicate hot spots and uneven cooking,
See "Cooking Made Simpb" bookbt for more information,
Canning and Oversize
All canners and large pots must have flat bottoms and
must be made from heavy-gauge materials° This is critical
on smoothtop surfaces, The base must not be more than
1 inch larger than the dement,
When canners and pots do not meet these standards, cooking
times may be longer, and cooktops may be damaged,
Some canners are designed with smalbr 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,
See "Cooking Made Simpb" booklet for more information,

Self-Clean Oven
o [t is normal for parts of the range to become hot during a
o To prevent damage to oven door. do not attempt to open
the door when LOCK is displayed.
o Avoid touching cooktop door. window or oven vent area
during a clean cycle.
• Do not use commercial oven cleaners on the oven finish
or around any part of the oven. Theywiii damage the
finish or parts.
The self-clean cycle uses above-normal cooking temperatures
to automatically clean the oven interior.
It is normal for flare-ups, smoking, or flaming to occur during
cleaning if the oven is heavily soiled. It is better to clean the
oven regularly rather than to wait until there is a heavy build-
up of soil 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 broiler pan, 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.
3. 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. (The gasket is the
seal around the oven door and -_- /_
window.} ".
4. To prevent damage, do not clean or
rub the gasket around the oven
door. The gasket is designed 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.
6. Wipe up sugary and acidic spillovers such as sweet
potatoes, tomato, or milk-based sauces. Porcelain enamel
is acid-resistant, not acid-proof. The porcelain finish may
discolor if acidic spills are not wiped up before a self-clean
cycle.

Smoke and Smells
You may see some smoke and smell an odor the first few
times the oven is cleaned. This is normal and will lessen in

Sounds
As the oven heats, you may hear sounds of metal parts
expanding and contracting. This is normal and will not
damage the oven.
After Seff-C eaning
About one hour after the end of the seg-dean cycle, LOCK

Some soil may leave a light gray, powdery ash. Remove
it with a damp cloth. If soil remains after wiping, that means
the clean cycle was not long enough. The soil will be m-
moved during the next clean cycle.
If oven racks were left in the oven and do not slide
smoothly after a clean cycle, wipe racks and rack supports
with a small amount of vegetable oil to make them easier to
move.
Fine lines may appear in the porcelain becaase it went
throagh heating and cooling. This is normal and will not
affect performance.
A white discoloration may appear after cleaning if acidic
or sugary foods were not wiped up before the self-clean
cycle. This discoloration is normal and will not affect perfor-
