1
Aerosol-type cans are explosive when
exposed to heat and may be highly
flammable. Do not use or store near
appliance.
Cooktop
NEVER leave surface units unattended
especially when using high heat. An unattended boilover could cause smoking
and a greasy spillover can cause a fire.
This appliance is equipped with different
size surface elements. Select pans with
flat bottoms large enough to cover
element. Fitting pan size to element will
improve cooking efficiency.
If pan is smaller than element, a portion
of the element will be exposed to direct
contact and could ignite clothing or
potholder.
Only certain types of glass, glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, 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.
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.
Deep Fat Fryers
Use extreme caution when moving the
grease pan or disposing of hot grease.
Allow grease to cool before attempting to
move pan.
Oven
Use care when opening door. Let hot air
or steam escape before removing or replacing food.
For proper oven operation and performance, do not block or obstruct oven
vent duct. When in use, the vent and surrounding area may become hot enough
to cause burns.
Always place oven racks in desired locations while oven is cool. If rack must be
moved while oven is hot, do not let
potholder contact hot element in oven.
Self-Cleaning Oven
Clean only parts listed in this guide. Do
not clean door gasket. The gasket is essential for a good seal. Do not rub, damage, or move the gasket.
Do not use oven cleaners. No commercial oven cleaner or oven liner protective
coating of any kind should be used in or
around any part of the oven.
Before self-cleaning the oven, remove
broiler pan, oven racks and other utensils
to prevent excessive smoking, discoloration of the oven racks or possible damage
to utensils.
Wipe up excessive spillovers, especially
greasy spills, before the clean cycle to
prevent smoking, flare-ups or flaming.
It is normal for the cooktop to become hot
during a clean cycle. Therefore, avoid
touching the cooktop, door, window or
oven vent during a clean cycle.
Heating Elements
NEVER touch surface or oven heating
elements, areas near elements, or interior surfaces of oven.
Heating elements may be hot even
though they are dark in color. Areas near
surface elements and interior surfaces of
an oven may become hot enough to
cause burns. During and after use, do not
touch or let clothing or other flammable
materials contact heating elements,
areas near elements, or interior surfaces
of oven until they have had sufficient time
to cool.

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 is engaged 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 during the self-clean cycle
by opening a window and/or door in the
room where the appliance is located.
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.

turn off when the surface elements are
turned off.
4. After cooking, turn knob to OFF. Re-
move pan.
Suggested Heat Settings
The size, type of cookware and cooking
operation will affect the heat setting. For
information on cookware and other factors affecting heat settings, refer to
“Cooking Made Simple” booklet.
HIGH: Use to bring liquid to a boil. Always
reduce setting to a lower heat when liquids begin to boil or foods begin to cook.
9 MED. HIGH: Use to brown meat, heat
oil for deep fat frying or sautéing. Maintain
fast boil for large amounts of liquids.
MEDIUM: Use to maintain slow boil for
large amounts of liquids and for most frying operations.
3 MED. LOW: Use to continue cooking
covered foods or steam foods.
Before Cooking
➢ Always place a pan on the surface
unit before you turn it on. To prevent
damage to range, never operate
surface unit without a pan in place.
➢ NEVER use the cooktop as a storage
area for food or cookware.
During Cooking
➢ Be sure you know which knob con-
trols which surface unit. Make sure
you turned on the correct surface unit.
➢ Begin cooking on a higher heat set-
ting 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.
➢ NEVER touch cooktop until it has
cooled. Expect some parts of the
cooktop, especially around the surface units, to become warm or hot
during cooking. Use potholders to
protect hands.
Glass-Ceramic Surface
COOKING AREAS
The cooking areas on your range are
identified by permanent patterns on the
glass-ceramic surface. For most efficient
cooking, fit the pan size to the element
size.

HOT SURFACE
LIGHT ON COOKTOP
WARMING CENTER
(Select models)
Use the warming center to keep cooked
foods warm, such as vegetables, gravies
and oven-safe dinner plates.
Push the switch on the control panel to turn the warming center on and off.
NOTES:
WARMING CENTER
❚ 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.
❚ Use only cookware and dishes rec-
ommended 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.
❚ It is not recommended to warm
food for longer than one hour, as
food quality may deteriorate.
❚ It is not recommended to heat cold
food on the Warming Center.
TIPS TO PROTECT THE
GLASS-CERAMIC
SURFACE
➢ Before first use, clean the cooktop.
(See Cleaning, page 15.)
➢ Do not use glass pans. They may
scratch the surface.
➢ 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 15.)
➢ 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.
➢ 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 15.)
➢ Make sure the surface and the pan
bottom are clean before turning on to
prevent scratches.
➢ 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.
➢ 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.
➢ If 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.
➢ Do not use abrasive cleansing pow-
ders or scouring pads which will
scratch the cooktop.
➢ Do not use chlorine bleach, ammonia
or other cleansers not specifically
recommended.
➢ To retain the appearance of the glass
ceramic cooktop, clean after each
use.
NOTES:
GLASS-CERAMIC SURFACE
❚ On Canadian models with a Warming Center, the surface will not operate dur-
ing a self-clean cycle.
❚ Cooktop may emit light smoke and odor the first few times the cooktop is
used. This is normal.
❚ When a control is turned on, a red glow can be seen through the glass-ceram-
ic surface. The element will cycle on and off to maintain the preset heat setting.
❚ Glass-ceramic cooktops retain heat for a period of time after the unit is turned
off. Turn the elements off a few minutes before food is completely cooked and
use the retained heat to complete the cooking. When the HOT SURFACE light
turns off (see above), the cooking area will be cool enough to touch.
Because of the heat retention characteristics, the elements will not respond to
changes in settings as quickly as coil elements.
❚ NOTE: Do not attempt to lift the cooktop.

CAUTION:
➢ It is normal for parts of the range to
become hot during a clean cycle.
➢ To prevent damage to oven door,
do not attempt to open the door
when the LOCK indicator word is
displayed.
➢ Avoid touching cooktop, door, win-
dow, or oven vent area during a
clean cycle.
➢ Do not use commercial oven clean-
ers on the self-clean oven finish or
around any part of the oven as they
will damage the finish or parts.
The self-clean cycle uses above normal
cooking temperatures to automatically
clean the entire 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 help eliminate
normal odors associated with cleaning.

Some smoke and odor may be detected
the first few times the oven is cleaned.
This is normal and will lessen in time.
Smoke may also occur if oven is heavily
soiled or if broiler pan was left in oven.
As oven heats, you may hear sounds of
metal parts expanding and contracting.
This is normal and will not damage the
oven.

❚ Check if oven controls have been
properly set.
❚ Check to be sure plug is securely in-
serted into receptacle.
❚ Check or re-set circuit breaker. Check
or replace fuse.
❚ Check power supply.
PART OR ALL OF APPLIANCE
DOES NOT WORK.
NOTE: On Canadian models with a
warming center, during a self-clean
cycle – glass-ceramic cooking surface
will not operate.
❚ Check if surface and/or oven controls
have been properly set. See pages 4
and 9.
❚ Check if oven door is unlocked after
self-clean cycle. See page 14.
❚ Check if oven is set for a delayed cook
or clean program. See pages 13 and 14.
GLASS-CERAMIC SURFACE
SHOWS WEAR.
1. Tiny scratches or abrasions,
❚ Cooktop and pan bottom are clean.
Do not slide glass or metal pans
across top. Make sure pan bottom
is not rough. Use the recommended cleaning agents. See page 15.
2. Metal marks.
❚ Do not slide metal pans across top.
When cool, clean with Cooktop
Cleaning Creme. See page 15.
3. Brown streaks and specks.
❚ Spills not removed promptly.
Wiping with soiled cloth or sponge.
Pan bottom not clean.
4. Areas with a metallic sheen.
❚ Mineral deposits from water and
food.
5. Pitting or flaking.
❚ Sugary boilovers that were not
removed promptly. See page 15.
BAKING RESULTS ARE NOT AS
EXPECTED OR DIFFER
FROM PREVIOUS OVEN.
❚ Make sure the oven vent has not been
blocked. See page 10 for location.
❚ Check to make sure range is level.
❚ Temperatures often vary between a
new oven and an old one. As ovens
age, the oven temperature often
“drifts” and may become hotter or
cooler. See page 8 for instructions on
adjusting the oven temperature.
NOTE: It is not recommended to
adjust the temperature if only one or
two recipes are in question.
❚ Check that oven temperature is de-
creased by 25° F when convect baking.
❚ See “Cooking Made Simple” booklet
for more information on bakeware and
baking.
FOOD IS NOT BROILING
PROPERLY OR SMOKES
EXCESSIVELY.
❚ Check oven rack positions. Food may
be too close to element.
❚ Broil element was not preheated.
❚ Aluminum foil was incorrectly used.
Never line the broiler insert with foil.
❚ Oven door was closed during broiling.
Leave the door open to the first stop
position (about 4 inches).
❚ Trim excess fat from meat before broil-
ing.
❚ A soiled broiler pan was used.
OVEN WILL NOT SELF-CLEAN.
❚ Check to make sure the cycle is not
set for a delayed start. See page 14.
❚ Check if door is closed.
OVEN DID NOT CLEAN PROPERLY.
❚ Longer cleaning time may be needed.
❚ Excessive spillovers, especially sugary
and/or acidic foods, were not removed
prior to the self-clean cycle.
OVEN DOOR WILL NOT UNLOCK
AFTER SELF-CLEAN CYCLE.
❚ Oven interior is still hot. Allow about
one hour for the oven to cool after the
completion of a self-clean cycle. The
door can be opened when the LOCK
indicator word is not displayed.
MOISTURE COLLECTS ON OVEN
WINDOW OR STEAM COMES
FROM OVEN VENT.
❚ This is normal when cooking foods
high in moisture.
❚ Excessive moisture was used when
cleaning the window.
THERE IS A STRONG ODOR OR
LIGHT SMOKE WHEN OVEN IS
TURNED ON.
❚ This is normal for a new range and will
disappear after a few uses. Initiating a
clean cycle will “burn off” the odors
more quickly.
❚ Turning on a ventilation fan will help
remove the smoke and/or odor.
❚ Excessive food soils on the oven bot-
tom. Use a self-clean cycle.
“F” PLUS A NUMBER
APPEARS IN THE DISPLAY
❚ This is called a fault code. If a fault
code appears in the display and beeps
sound, press the CANCEL pad. If the
fault code and beeps continue, disconnect power to the appliance. Wait
a few minutes, then reconnect power.
If fault code and beeps still continue,
disconnect power to the appliance and
call an authorized servicer.
❚ If the oven is heavily soiled, excessive
flare-ups may result in a fault code
during a clean cycle. Press CANCEL
pad and allow the oven to cool completely, wipe out excess soil and reset
the clean cycle. If the fault code and
beeps still continue, disconnect power
to the appliance and call an authorized
servicer.
