, NEVER use the cooktop as a storage area for food or
cookware.
DURING COOKING
* Be sure you know which knob controls which surface
unit. Make sure you turned on the correct surface unit.
- Begin cooking on a higher heat setting then reduce to a lower setting to complete the operation. Never use a
high heat setting for extended cooking.
* NEVER allow a pan to boil dry. This could damage the
pan and the appliance.
° NEVERtouch cooktop until it has cooled. Expect some
parts of the cooktop, especially around the surface units,
to become warm or hot dunng cooking. Use potholders to protect hands.
AFTER COOKING
Make sure surface unit is turned off.
Clean up messyspills as soon as possible. OTHER TIPS

Smoothtop Surface
Smoothtop Surface Notes:
* For Canadian models, the smoothtop does NOT operate
during a clean cycle.
* Cooktop may emit light smoke and odor the first few
times the cooktop is used. This isnormal.
* 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 completely 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 isnormal and will disappear when the surface cools.
Hot Surface 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 isturned off, until the area has cooled.
Warming Center ([selectmodels)
Use the Warming Center to keep hot cooked foods
warm, such as vegetables, gravies and oven-safe
dinner plates.
Setting the Control:
Press switch up to turn off or down to activate.
Notes:
* 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 1/2to 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.
For more information on cookware, refer to Cookware Recommendations on page 7.

(style varies by model)
Warming Center 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.
SurfeceCooking
Tips to Protect the Smoothtop Surface
Cleaning (see page 20 for more information) * Before first use, clean the cooktop.
Clean your cooktop daily or after each use.This will keep your cooktop looking good and can prevent damage.
If a spillover occurs while cooking, immediatelyclean 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.
Do not slide aluminum pans across a hot surface. The pans may leave marks which need to be removed promptly. (See
Cleaning, page 20.) 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 20.)
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 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 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.

Surfece¢ookin:
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 inch of water in the 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 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.
Flat,smooth-bottom Panswith grooved or warped bottoms. pans. Panswith uneven bottoms do not cook
efficiently and sometimes may not boil liquid.
Heavy-gauge pans. Pansthat are the
same size as the
element.
Secure handles. Cookware with loose or broken handles.
Tight-fitting lids. Loose-fitting lids.
Flat bottom woks. Woks with a ring-stand bottom.
Very thin-gauge metal or glass pans.
Panssmaller or larger than the
element by 1 inch.
Heavyhandles that tilt the pan.

Adjusting the Oven Temperature
Oven temperatures are carefully tested for accuracy at the factory. It is normal to notice some baking or browning
differences between a new oven and an old one. As ranges get older, the oven temperature can shift.
You may adjust the oven temperature if you think the oven is not baking or browning correctly. To decide how much to
change the temperature, set the temperature 25° higher or lower than your recipe recommends, then bake. The results of the "test" should give you an idea of how much to adjust
the temperature.
To adjust the oven temperature:
1. Pressthe appropriate Bake pad.
2. Enter 550° by pressing the More+ pad.
3. Press and hold the Bake pad for several seconds or until "0°'' and "AdJ" (which
signifies 'adjust':} appear in the display. If the oven temperature was previously adjusted, the
change will be displayed. For example, if the oven tem- perature was reduced by 15°the display will show "-15°".
4. Pressthe More+ or Less- pad to adjust the temperature. Eachtime a pad is pressed, the temperature changes by
5°. The oven temperature can be increased or decreased by 5° to 35°.
5. The time of day will automatically reappear in the display
You do not need to readjust the oven temperature if there
is a power failure or interruption. Broiling and cleaning
temperatures cannot be adjusted.

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 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.
.
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 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 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
isacid-resistant, not acid-proof. The porcelain finish may discolor ifacidic spills are not wiped up before a self-
clean cycle.
Notes:
* Oven temperature must be below 400° F to program a
clean cycle. * Only one oven can be cleaned at a time. * Both oven doors lock when either oven is being
cleaned.

doors open when "Lock" is displayed.
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
time. Smoke may also occur if the oven is heavily soiled or if a
broiler pan was left in the oven.
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 Self=Cleaning
About one hour after the end of the self-clean cycle, "Lock" will turn off. The doors can then be opened.
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 re- 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.
