ing and a greasy spillover can cause a fire.
This appliance is equipped with different size surface ele-
ments. Select pans with flat bottoms large enough to cover
element. Fitting pan size to element will improve cooking
efficiency.
Only certain types of glass, glass-ceramic, ceramic, earthen-
ware, or other glazed utensils are suitable for cooktop or
oven service without breaking due to the sudden change in
temperature. Follow utensil manufacturer's instructions
when using glass.
This appliance has been tested for safe performance using
conventional cookware. Do not use any devices or accesso-
ries that are not specifically recommended in this manual
Do not use stove top grills or add-on oven convection
systems. The use of devices or accessories that are not
expressly recommended in this manual can create serious
safety hazards, result in performance problems, and reduce
the life of the components of this appliance.
Turn pan handle toward center of cooktop, not out into the
room or over another surface element. This reduces the risk
of burns, ignition of flammable materials, or spillage if pan is
accidently bumped or reached by small children.
Glass-Ceramic Cooktop
NEVER cook on broken cooktop. If cooktop should break,
cleaning solutions and spillovers may penetrate the broken
cooktop and create a risk of electric shock. Contact a
qualified technician immediately.
Clean cooktop with caution. Some cleaners can produce
noxious fumes if applied to a hot surface. If a wet sponge,
cloth, or paper towel is used on a hot cooking area, be
careful to avoid steam burn.
Heating Emements
NEVER touch surface or oven heating elements, areas near
elements, or interior surfaces of ovens.
Heating elements may be hot even though they are dark in
color. Areas near surface elements and interior surfaces of
the ovens may become hot enough to cause burns. During
and after use, do not touch or let clothing or other flam-
mable materials contact heating elements, areas near
elements, or interior surfaces of ovens until they have had
sufficient time to cool.
Other potentially hot surfaces include: Cooktop, areas facing
the cooktop, oven vent, and surfaces near the vent opening,
oven doors, areas around the doors and oven windows.
Deep Fat Fryers

Smoothtop Surface
Smoothtop Surface Notes:
, For Canadian medals, the smoothtop does NOToperate
during a dean cycb.
, Cooktop may emit light smoke 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 elements off
a few minutes before food is compbtdy cooked and use
the retained heat to complete cooking. When the Hot
Surface indicator light turns off, the cooking area will be
cool enough to touch. Because of the way they retain
heat, the smoothtop elements will not respond to
changes in settings as quickly as coil elements.
° In the event of a potential boilover, remove the pan from
the cooking surface.
. Never attempt to lift the cooktop.
, The smoothtop surface may appear discolored when it is
hot. This is normal and will disappear when the surface
cools.
Hot Sudace Light
The Hot Surface indicator light is located on the
control panel. The light will be illuminated
when any cooking area is hot. It will remain on,
even after the control is turned off, until the area has cooled.
Warming Center (select models) OFF
Use the Warming Center to keep hot cooked foods
warm, such as vegetables, gravies and oven-safe
dinner plates.
Setting the Control:

. Never warm food for longer than one hour (eggs for 30
minutes}, as food quality' may deteriorate.
, Do not heat cold food on the Warming Center.
, Warming temperatures of the food will vary depending
on type and amount of food. Always hold food at proper
food temperatures. USDA recommends food tempera-
tures between 140°-170° F.

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 not extend mere than _/2to t-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.

Tips to Protect the
Smoothtop Surface
C_eaning (see page 20 for more information]
, Before first use, dean the cooktop,
, Cban your cooktop daiiy or after each use,This will keep
your cooktop Hookinggood and can prevent damage,
, Hfa spiHoveroccurs wNe cooking, immediateiy dean the
spill from the cooking area wMb it is hot to prevent atough
cbaning chore Hater,Using extreme care, wipe spill with a
dean dry'towel
, Do not allow spills to remain on the cooking area or the
cooktop trim for a bng 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,
, Do not slide aluminum pans across a hot surface, The pans
may leave marks which need to be removed promptly, (See
Cleaning, page 200
, 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, page 200
, 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 alarge 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-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. Caii an
authorized Maytag Servicer.

Canning and Oversize
All canners and largo pots mast 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 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.
