■

User Servicing – Do not repair or replace any part of the range unless specifically recommended in the manual. All other servicing should be referred to a qualified technician.

■

Storage in or on the Range – Flammable materials should not be stored in an oven or near surface units.

■

Do Not Use Water on Grease Fires – Smother fire or flame or use dry chemical or foam-type extinguisher.

■

Use Only Dry Potholders – Moist or damp potholders on hot surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do not let potholder touch hot heating elements. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth.

■

DO NOT TOUCH SURFACE UNITS OR AREAS NEAR UNITS – Surface units may be hot even though they are dark in color. Areas near surface units may become hot enough to cause burns. During and after use, do not touch, or let clothing or other flammable materials contact surface units or areas near units until they have had sufficient time to cool. Among those areas are the cooktop and surfaces facing the cooktop.

– children climbing on the

■ Use Proper Pan Size – The range is equipped with

one or more surface units of different size. Select utensils having flat bottoms large enough to cover the surface unit heating element. The use of undersized utensils will expose a portion of the heating element to direct contact and may result in ignition of clothing. Proper relationship of utensil to burner will also improve efficiency.

■ Never Leave Surface Units Unattended at High Heat

Settings – Boilover causes smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite.

■ Make Sure Reflector Pans or Drip Bowls Are in

Place – Absence of these pans or bowls during cooking may subject wiring or components underneath to damage.

■ Protective Liners – Do not use aluminum foil to line

surface unit drip bowls or oven bottoms, except as suggested in the manual. Improper installation of these liners may result in a risk of electric shock, or fire.

■ Glazed Cooking Utensils – Only certain types of

glass, glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed utensils are suitable for range-top service without breaking due to the sudden change in temperature.

■ Utensil Handles Should Be Turned Inward and Not

Extend Over Adjacent Surface Units – To reduce the risk of burns, ignition of flammable materials, and spillage due to unintentional contact with the utensil, the handle of a utensil should be positioned so that it is turned inward, and does not extend over adjacent surface units.

■ Do Not Soak Removable Heating Elements –

Heating elements should never be immersed in water.

■ Do Not 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 – If a wet sponge or

cloth is used to wipe spills on a hot cooking area, be careful to avoid steam burn. Some cleaners can produce noxious fumes if applied to a hot surface.

■ Use Care When Opening Door – Let hot air or

steam escape before removing or replacing food.

■ Do Not Heat Unopened Food Containers – Build-up

of pressure may cause container to burst and result in injury.

To Us e D UA L :

1. Push in and turn the left front control knob counterclockwise

to the DUAL zone anywhere between HI and LO.

2. Push in and turn knob to vertical (off) when finished.

To Use SINGLE :

1. Push in and turn the left front control knob clockwise to the

SINGLE zone anywhere between HI and LO.

2. Push in and turn knob to vertical (off) when finished.

Warm Zone Element

(on some models)

REMEMBER: When range is in use or (on some models) during the Self-Cleaning cycle, the entire cooktop area may become hot.

NOTE: On self-cleaning ceramic glass models, the cooktop will not operate when the range is in a self-cleaning mode.

WARNING

Food Poisoning Hazard

Do not let food sit for more than one hour before or after cooking.

Doing so can result in food poisoning or sickness.

Use the Warm Zone Element to keep cooked foods warm. One hour is the recommended maximum time to maintain food quality.

Do not use it to heat cold foods. The Warm Zone Element can be used alone or when any of the

other surface cooking areas are being used.

The Warm Zone Element area will not glow red when cycling on.

However, its indicator light will glow as long as the Warm Zone Element area is too hot to touch.

■ Use only cookware and dishes recommended for oven and

cooktop use.

■ Cover all foods with a lid or aluminum foil. When warming

baked goods, allow a small opening in the cover for moisture to escape.

■ Do not use plastic wrap to cover food. Plastic wrap may melt.

■ Use pot holders or oven mitts to remove food.

To Us e:

Push in WARM ZONE button to activate, push again to turn off.

Ceramic Glass

The surface cooking area will glow red when an element is on. It will cycle on and off, at all settings, to maintain the selected heat level.

It is normal for the surface of white ceramic glass to appear to change color when surface cooking areas are hot. As the glass cools, it will return to its original color.

Wiping off the cooktop before and after each use will help keep it free from stains and provide the most even heating. On cooktops with white ceramic glass, soils and stains may be more visible, and may require more cleaning and care. For more information, see “General Cleaning” section.

■ Do not store jars or cans above the cooktop. Dropping a

heavy or hard object onto the cooktop could crack it.

■ Do not leave a hot lid on the cooktop. As the cooktop cools,

air can become trapped between the lid and the cooktop, and the ceramic glass could break when the lid is removed.

■ For foods containing sugar in any form, clean up all spills and

soils as soon as possible. Allow the cooktop to cool down slightly. Then, while wearing oven mitts, remove the spills while the surface is still warm. If sugary spills are allowed to cool down, they can adhere to the cooktop and can cause pitting and permanent marks.

■ Do not slide cookware or bakeware across the cooktop.

Aluminum or copper bottoms and rough finishes on cookware or bakeware could leave scratches or marks on the cooktop.

■ Do not cook popcorn in prepackaged aluminum containers

on the cooktop. They could leave aluminum marks that cannot be removed completely.

■ Do not allow objects that could melt, such as plastic or

aluminum foil, to touch any part of the entire cooktop.

■ Do not use the cooktop as a cutting board.

■ Use cookware about the same size as the surface cooking

area. Cookware should not extend more than 1" (2.5 cm) outside the area.

A. Surface cooking area B. Cookware/canner C. 1" (2.5 cm) Maximum overhang

■ Use flat-bottomed cookware for best heat conduction and

energy efficiency. Cookware with rounded, warped, ribbed or dented bottoms could cause uneven heating and poor cooking results.

■ Determine flatness by placing the straight edge of a ruler

across the bottom of the cookware. While you rotate the ruler, no space or light should be visible between it and the cookware.

■ Cookware designed with slightly indented bottoms or small

expansion channels can be used.

■ Make sure the bottoms of pots and pans are clean and dry

before using them. Residue and water can leave deposits when heated.

■ Do not cook foods directly on the cooktop.

Hot Surface Indicator Light (under ceramic glass)

The hot surface indicator light will glow as long as any surface cooking area is too hot to touch, even after the surface cooking area(s) is turned off.

Coil Elements and Burner Bowls

(on some models)

Coil elements should be level for optimal cooking results. Burner bowls, when clean, reflect heat back to the cookware. They also help catch spills.

Cookware should not extend more than 1" (2.5 cm) over the coil element. If cookware is uneven or too large, it can produce excess heat causing the burner bowl to change color. For more information, see the “General Cleaning” section.

NOTE: Before removing or replacing coil elements and burner bowls, make sure they are cool and the control knobs are in the Off position.

To R emo ve :

1. Push in the edge of coil element toward the receptacle. Then

lift it just enough to clear the burner bowl.

2. Pull the coil element straight away from the receptacle.

■ On coil element models, the installation of a Canning Unit Kit

is recommended. If a kit is not installed, the life of the coil element will be shortened. See “Assistance or Service” for ordering instructions.

■ For more information, contact Agriculture Canada.

Companies that manufacture home canning products can also offer assistance.

3. Lift out the burner bowl.

To Replace:

1. Line up openings in the burner bowl with the coil element

receptacle.

2. Holding the coil element as level as possible, carefully push

coil element terminal into the receptacle.

3. When the terminal is pushed into the receptacle as far as it

will go, push down the edge of the coil element opposite the receptacle.

Lift-up Cooktop

(on some models)

The lift-up cooktop provides easy access for cleaning beneath. Do not drop the cooktop. Damage could occur to the finish and the cooktop frame. For more information, see the “General Cleaning” section.

To Lift :

Lift the cooktop by both front corners until the supports lock into place.

Cookware

IMPORTANT: Do not leave empty cookware on a hot surface cooking area, element or surface burner.

Ideal cookware should have a flat bottom, straight sides, a wellfitting lid and the material should be of medium-to-heavy thickness.

Rough finishes may scratch the cooktop. Aluminum and copper may be used as a core or base in cookware. However, when used as a base they can leave permanent marks on the cooktop or grates.

Cookware material is a factor in how quickly and evenly heat is transferred, which affects cooking results. A nonstick finish has the same characteristics as its base material. For example, aluminum cookware with a nonstick finish will take on the properties of aluminum.

On some models, griddles with nonstick surfaces should not be used in the broiler.

Use the following chart as a guide for cookware material characteristics.

COOKWARE CHARACTERISTICS

Aluminum

Cast iron

■ Heats quickly and evenly.

■ Suitable for all types of cooking.

■ Medium or heavy thickness is best for

most cooking tasks.

■ Heats slowly and evenly.

■ Good for browning and frying.

■ Maintains heat for slow cooking.

To Replace:

1. Lift the cooktop from both sides while pressing the support

rods back to unlock them.

2. Slowly lower the cooktop into place.

Home Canning

When canning for long periods, alternate the use of surface cooking areas, elements or surface burners between batches. This allows time for the most recently used areas to cool.

■ Center the canner on the grate or largest surface cooking

area or element. Canners should not extend more than 1" (2.5 cm) outside the cooking area.

■ Do not place canner on 2 surface cooking areas, elements or

surface burners at the same time.

■ On ceramic glass models, use only flat-bottomed canners.

Ceramic or Ceramic glass

Copper

Earthenware

Porcelain enamel-onsteel or cast iron

Stainless steel

■ Follow manufacturer’s instructions.

■ Heats slowly, but unevenly.

■ Ideal results on low to medium heat

settings.

■ Heats very quickly and evenly.

■ Follow manufacturer’s instructions.

■ Use on low heat settings.

■ See stainless steel or cast iron.

■ Heats quickly, but unevenly.

■ A core or base of aluminum or copper

on stainless steel provides even heating.

OVEN USE

Odors and smoke are normal when the oven is used the first few times, or when it is heavily soiled.

IMPORTANT: The health of some birds is extremely sensitive to the fumes given off. Exposure to the fumes may result in death to certain birds. Always move birds to another closed and well ventilated room.

Aluminum Foil

IMPORTANT: Do not line the oven bottom with any type of foil, liners or cookware because permanent damage will occur to the oven bottom finish.

■ Do not cover entire rack with foil because air must be able to

move freely for best cooking results.

■ To catch spills, place foil on rack below dish. Make sure foil is

at least 1" (2.5 cm) larger than the dish and that it is turned up at the edges.

Positioning Racks and Bakeware

IMPORTANT: Do not place food or bakeware directly on the oven door or bottom. Permanent damage will occur to the porcelain finish.

RACKS

NOTES:

■ Position racks before turning the oven on.

■ Do not move racks with bakeware on them.

■ Make sure racks are level.

To move a rack, pull it out to the stop position, raise the front edge, then lift out. Use the following illustration and chart as a guide.

Split Oven Rack

Meat Thermometer

On models without a temperature probe, always rely on a meat thermometer to determine doneness of meat and poultry. The internal temperature, not appearance, is what counts. A meat thermometer is not supplied with this appliance.

■ Insert the thermometer into the center of the thickest portion

of the meat or inner thigh or breast of poultry. The tip of the thermometer should not touch fat, bone or gristle.

■ After reading the thermometer once, push it into the meat

¹⁄₂" (1.25 cm) more and read again. If the temperature drops, cook the meat or poultry longer.

■ Check all meat in 2 or 3 places.

A. Oven vent (Ceramic glass model)

A. Oven vent (Coil element model)

The oven vent releases hot air and moisture from the oven, and should not be blocked or covered. Blocking or covering the vent will cause poor air circulation, affecting cooking and cleaning results. Do not set plastics, paper or other items that could melt or burn near the oven vent.

On coil element models, the element can be used when the oven is in use as long as the cookware does not extend more than 1" (2.5 cm) over the element.

Baking and Roasting

ACCUBAKE® Temperature Management System

(on some models) The ACCUBAKE system electronically regulates the oven heat

levels during preheat and bake to maintain a precise temperature range for optimal cooking results. The bake and broil elements cycle on and off in intervals. The bake element will glow red when cycling on, the broil element will not. This feature is automatically activated when the oven is in use.

Before baking and roasting, position racks according to the “Positioning Racks and Bakeware” section. When roasting, it is not necessary to wait for the oven preheat conditioning time to end before putting food in unless recommended in the recipe.

To Bake or Roast:

1. Press BAKE.

Press TEMP “up” or “down” arrow pads to set a temperature other than 350°F (177°C) in 5° amounts. The bake range can be set between 170°F and 500°F (77°C and 260°C).

2. Press START.

The temperature can be changed after this step. START does not need to be pressed again on Styles 2 and 3 of Electronic Oven Controls.

3. Press OFF/CANCEL when finished.

Preheating

Style 1 Electronic Oven Control

After START is pressed, the oven will enter a timed preheat conditioning. “Lo” will appear on the display until the temperature is above 170ºF (77ºC). Once 170ºF (77ºC) is reached, the display temperature will increase in 2° increments as the actual temperature of the oven increases. “PREHEATING” will appear in the display in the lower text line. When the preheat conditioning temperature is reached, a tone will sound, and the selected temperature will appear on the display.

Styles 2, 3 & 4 Electronic Oven Controls

After START is pressed, the oven will enter a timed preheat conditioning. “PrE” and the time countdown may appear on the display (on some models). When the preheat conditioning time ends, a tone will sound and the selected temperature will appear on the display.

Preheat temperatures are affected by varying factors such as room temperature and peak energy usage times. It is normal for the temperature showing on the display and the actual oven temperature to differ.

Waiting an additional 10 minutes after the preheat conditioning time ends to put food in the oven is suggested when baking foods with leavening ingredients, such as yeast, baking powder, baking soda and eggs.

Broiling

Broiling uses direct radiant heat to cook food. Changing the temperature when Custom Broiling allows more precise control when cooking. The lower the temperature, the slower the cooking. Thicker cuts and unevenly shaped pieces of meat, fish and poultry may cook better at lower broiling temperatures.

■ Use only the broiler pan and grid provided with the range. It is

designed to drain juices and help prevent spatter and smoke.

■ For proper draining, do not cover the broiler grid with foil. The

bottom of the pan may be lined with aluminum foil for easier cleaning.

■ Trim excess fat to reduce spattering. Slit the remaining fat on

the edges to prevent curling.

■ Pull out oven rack to the stop position before turning or

removing food. Use tongs to turn food to avoid the loss of juices. Very thin cuts of fish, poultry or meat may not need to be turned.

■ After broiling, remove the pan from the oven when removing

the food. Drippings will bake on the pan if left in the heated oven, making cleaning more difficult.

Before broiling, position rack according to Broiling Chart. It is not necessary to preheat the oven before putting food in unless recommended in the recipe. Position food on grid in the broiler pan, then place it in the center of the oven rack. Close the door to the broil stop position to ensure proper broiling temperature.

Choice Bake®Function

(on some models)

The CHOICE BAKE® function eliminates the top heat during oven cooking. It is ideal for baking pies, casseroles and breads, and for roasting foods that require longer and slower cook times such as poultry and roasts.

Similar to the baking and roasting function, the bake elements or burners cycle on and off at intervals during CHOICE BAKE However, the cycle duration for the broil element is much shorter during CHOICE BAKE

cycle, allowing less top browning of foods

and more customized control for your baking results.

To Us e:

1. Press CHOICE BAKE® function.

Press the TEMP “up” or “down” arrow pad to set a temperature other than 350°F (175°C) in 5° increments. The bake range can be set between 170°F and 500°F (75°C and 260°C).

2. Press START.

The temperature can be changed after this step. Start does not need to be pressed again.

3. Press OFF/CANCEL when finished cooking. To use the CHOICE BAKE

to achieve less top browning, press CHOICE BAKE®, set the desired temperature and press START.

To Broil:

1. Open door to broil stop position.

2. Press BROIL.

3. Press START.

4. Press OFF/CANCEL when finished.

BROILING CHART

For best results, place food 3" (7 cm) or more from the broil element. Times are guidelines only and may need to be adjusted for individual foods and tastes. Recommended rack positions are numbered from the bottom (1) to the top (5). For diagram, see the “Positioning Racks and Bakeware” section.

Convection Baking and Roasting

(Style 1 electronic oven control)

During convection baking or roasting, the bake and broil elements cycle on and off in intervals to maintain the oven temperature, while the fan constantly circulates the hot air.

If the oven door is opened during convection baking or roasting, the broil element and fan will turn off immediately and the bake element will turn off in 2 minutes. They will come back on once the door is closed.

■ For optimal cooking results, do not use aluminum foil.

■ Reduce recipe temperature 25°F (14°C). The cook time may

need to be reduced also.

To Convection Bake or Roast:

Before convection baking or roasting, position the racks according to the “Positioning Racks and Bakeware” section. When using two racks, place them on rack positions 2 and 4.

When roasting with CONVECT, use the roasting rack on top of the broiler pan and grid. It is not necessary to wait for the oven to preheat before putting food in, unless it is recommended in the recipe.

Convection Cooking

(Style 1 electronic oven control)

In a convection oven, the fan-circulated hot air continually distributes heat more evenly than the natural movement of air in a standard thermal oven. This movement of hot air maintains a consistent temperature throughout the oven, cooking foods more evenly, crisping surfaces while sealing in moisture and yielding crustier breads.

Most foods can be cooked by lowering cooking temperatures 25°F to 50°F (14°C to 28°C) and cooking time can be shortened by as much as 30 percent, especially for large turkeys and roasts.

■ It is important not to cover foods so that surface areas remain

exposed to the circulating air, allowing browning and crisping.

■ Keep heat loss to a minimum by only opening the oven door

when necessary.

■ Choose cookie sheets without sides and roasting pans with

lower sides to allow air to move freely around the food.

■ Test baked goods for doneness a few minutes before the

minimum cooking time with an alternative method such as using a toothpick.
