Soft Scrub
on the base. Cleaners with chlorine should be avoided.
CLEANING THE SPILL TRAYS
Cooktop spill trays should be cleaned with warm soapy water, rinsed well, and then dried thoroughly after each use. Spill trays can be
soaked to soften the soil. An all-purpose cleaner such as Fantastik
other mild abrasive cleaners such as Soft Scrub
Apply all cleaners with care — soap-filled fiber or steel wool pads may scratch the spill trays. After cleaning, maintops can be wiped with
glass cleaners, such as Windex
LEANING THE GRIDDLE OR GRILL
C
Clean the griddle or grill surface with warm soapy water, rinse well, and wipe dry with a soft cloth. If food particles stick to the griddle
plate, remove with a mild abrasive cleaner such as Soft Scrub
the aluminum plate. Cleaners with chlorine should be avoided.
OVEN CLEANING
Before cleaning self-cleaning ovens, remove all racks and utensils from the oven and wipe up any puddles of grease and loose soil.
Remove any soil from outside the door seal area. Make sure the light bulbs and glass covers are in place. Turn on the ventilator hood
above the range and leave it on until the oven has completed the self-clean cycle. After setting the oven to self-clean, wait until the clean
light comes on then confirm that the oven door is locked. After the clean cycle is complete and the oven has cooled, wipe out the ash in
the bottom of the oven.

Ovens can be washed with hot soapy water. Mild cleaners such as Bon Ami®, Bar Keepers Friend®, or Soft Scrub® can be used.
Cleaners with chlorine should not be used.
TEAM OVEN CLEANING
S
Steam oven models should have the water tank emptied after each use. Thoroughly dry the seal of the tank lid and the slot where the
tank resides. Prolonged dampness could lead to a musty odor in the tank. Using the sponge provided with your range (or a comparable
soft sponge or cloth), wipe out the oven and remove any remaining water so that the evaporator dish in the bottom of the oven is dry.
Remove any possible limescale deposits with vinegar. Cleaners with chlorine should not be used.
Use only fresh tap water, or if necessary, plain non-carbonated purchased water to fill water tank. Use the descaling tablets supplied with
the appliance or a commercial citric acid based descaling agent to descale the appliance. Follow the manufacturer's instructions on the
packaging.

EXTRALOW® BURNERS
Several of the controls have flame settings even lower than the standard SIM setting. When the knob is set within this range, the flame
cycles on and off. These settings are suitable for simmering and poaching, melting chocolate, and holding cooked foods at temperatures
without scorching or burning.
S
ETTINGS AND COOKWARE TO USE
The type and quantity of food affects which setting to use. Higher settings may be needed for large quantities of food.
The cooking utensil affects the setting. Its size, type, material, and whether a lid is used, all affect the consistency of the cooking
temperature.
To maintain a low or simmer heat setting, bring food to a boil. Stir well then cover the pan and lower the heat to the desired setting.
Check periodically to determine if the control knob should be turned to another setting.
If an over-sized pan is used, the simmer action may occur mainly in the center of the pan. To equalize the temperature throughout the
food, stir the food around the outer edges of the pan into the food in the center.
It is normal to stir food occasionally while simmering. This is especially important when simmering for several hours.
When lowering the flame setting, adjust it in small steps. If the setting is too low to hold a simmer, bring the food back to a boil before resetting to a higher heat.
Use cookware that has good heat conductivity, good balance, a flat and correctly-sized base to fit the burner, and a properly fitting lid. A
5½” base size is generally the smallest pan recommended.
A properly fitting lid will shorten cooking time and make it possible to use a low heat setting.
When using two extra large stock pots at one time, do not use adjacent burners; use staggered burners to provide adequate air around
the burners.
SING THE OVEN
U
Preheat the oven to the desired setting when preparing baked products. The preheat time is calibrated to provide the best baking results,
so do not bake until the oven is preheated. The oven does not need to be preheated for roasting meats.
Use the proper bakeware for baking. Warped, lightweight pans or pans with tall sides do not yield high quality baked products. Cookies
should be baked on a flat sheet with a lip on one side. For better browning, baking pans should be placed crosswise on the rack with the
shorter sides on the right and the left. This allows the air to circulate freely.
For tender, golden crusts use light non-stick anodized or shiny metal pans. For crisp brown crusts, use dark non-stick/anodized or dark
dull metal utensils or glass bakeware. These may require lowering the temperatures 25°F when using convection bake. There is no need
to reduce the temperature when roasting meats.
It is recommended to reheat dishes or leftovers slowly between 230°F and 265°F until an internal thermometer reaches 165°F.

SING THE STEAM OVEN
Avoid opening the door during the steaming phase as this can significantly increase the cooking time. When using any steam mode place
food in oven before preheat.
