RANGESAFETY

Your safety and the safety of others are very important.

We have provided many important safety messages in this manual and on your appliance. Always read and obey all safety messages.

This symbol alerts you to potential hazards that can kill or hurt you and others. All safety messages will follow the safety alert symbol and either the word "DANGER" or

This is the safety alert symbol. "WARNING." These words mean:

You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't immediately follow instructions.

You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't

follow instructions.

All safety messages will tell you what the potential hazard is, tell you how to reduce the chance of injury, and tell you what can happen if the instructions are not followed.

The range will not tip during normal use. However, the range can tip if you applytoo much force or weight to the open door without the anti-tip bracket fastened down properly.

Tip Over Hazard

A child or adult can tip the range and be killed. Connect anti-tip bracket to rear range foot.

Reconnect the anti-tip bracket, if the range is moved. See the installation instructions for details.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in death or serious burns to children and adults.

Anti-Tip Bracket

Range Foot

Making sure the anti-tip bracket is installed:

• Slide range forward.

• Look for the anti-tip bracket securely attached to floor.

• Slide range back so rear range foot is under anti-tip bracket.

iMPORTANT SAFETY iNSTRUCTiONS

WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electrical

shock, injury to persons, or damage when using the range, follow basic precautions, including the

following:

• WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF

TIPPING OF THE RANGE, THE RANGE MUST BE SECURED BY PROPERLY INSTALLED ANTI-TIP

DEVICES. TO CHECK IF THE DEVICES ARE INSTALLED PROPERLY, SLIDE RANGE FORWARD,

LOOK FOR ANTI-TIP BRACKET SECURELY

ATTACHED TO FLOOR, AND SLIDE RANGE BACK SO REAR RANGE FOOT IS UNDER ANTI-TIP

BRACKET.

• CAUTION: Do not store items of interest to

children in cabinets above a range or on the back- guard of a range - children climbing on the range to

reach items could be seriously injured.

• Proper Insta(lation - Be sure the range is properly (nsta(led and grounded by a qualified technician.

• Never Use the Range for Warming or Heating the Room.

• Do Not Leave Children A(one - Children should not be left a(one or unattended in area where the range

is in use. They should never be allowed to sit or

stand on any part of the range.

• Wear Proper Apparel - Loose-fitting or hanging

garments should never be worn while using the

range.

• User Servicing - Do not repair or replace any part of

the range unless specifica(ly recommended in the

manua(. A(I other servicing should be referred to a

qua(ified technician.

• Storage in or on the Range - Flammable mater(a(s

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 materia(s contact surface units or areas near units until they have had sufficient time to coo(. Among those areas are the cooktop and surfaces facing the cooktop.

• 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 under-

sized 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 under- neath 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.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

• Keep Oven Vent Ducts Unobstructed.

• Placement of Oven Racks - Always place oven racks in desired location while oven is cool. If rack

must be moved while oven is hot, do not let potholder contact hot heating element in oven.

• DO NOT TOUCH HEATING ELEMENTS OR INTERIOR SURFACES OF OVEN - Heating

elements may be hot even though they are dark in color. Interior surfaces of an oven become hot

enough to cause burns. During and after use, do

not touch, or let clothing or other flammable materials contact heating elements or interior

surfaces of oven until they have had sufficient time to cool. Other surfaces of the appliance may

become hot enough to cause burns - among these

surfaces are oven vent openings and surfaces near these openings, oven doors, and windows of oven

doors.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

For self-cleaning ranges -

• Do Not Clean Door Gasket - The door gasket is essential for a good seal. Care should be taken not

to 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.

• Clean Only Parts Listed in Manual.

• Before Self-Cleaning the Oven - Remove broiler pan and other utensils.

For units with ventilating hood -

• Clean Ventilating Hoods Frequently - Grease should

not be allowed to accumulate on hood or filter.

• When flaming foods under the hood, turn the fan on.

Fire Hazard

Turn off all controls when done cooking. Failure to do so can result in death or fire.

Quick light radiant heating elements

The quick light radiant heating elements are designed for fast heat response. You can see them light up in just seconds. These

elements consist of a set of special heater coils embedded in a thermal insulation material. You may notice the element going on

and off a number of times during use. This is a normal occurrence.

Simmer Element (on some models)

The simmer element is identified on the disc in the center of the element. This element can maintain lower temperatures for preparation of foods that require very low heat like sauces,

chocolate or cheese.

Warming Element (on some models)

The HOT surface indicator lights on the cooktop surface will glow when their corresponding surface elements are turned on. The HOT surface indicator lights will continue to glow as long as the elements are too hot to touch, even after they are turned off. NOTE: Heat from the oven vent may cause the left rear HOT surface indicator light to glow to show that the area is too warm to touch. There are five HOT surface indicator lights on models equipped with a Warming Element.

Dual Element (on some models)

You can use the left front surface element as either a small- diameter lower-wattage element, or large-diameter full-wattage

element. The element is controlled by the "Dual / Single" control knob on

the left front of the range console. Push in and turn the control knob to the desired setting in the area marked "Dual" or "Single."

Bridge Element (on some models)

You can use the right front surface element as either a large- diameter full-wattage element, or larger-area higher-wattage element. The element is controlled by the "Dual / Single" control knob on the right front of the range console. Push in and turn the control knob to the desired setting in the area marked "Dual" or "Single."

Power On Lights

The Power On lights beside the control knobs indicate which surface elements are turned on. A Power On light will glow when its corresponding surface element is turned on.

Control Knob Settings Control knobs must be pushed in before turning them to a

setting. The controls can be set anywhere between HI and "0" (OFF). On models with Ceramic Glass, the controls work on the principle of percent on, percent off. When the control is turned to setting 5, the element will be on 50% of the time. Radiant heat elements heat-up quickly. You will notice, and perhaps even hear, the element switching on and off. Use the following chart as a guide when setting heat levels.

SETTING RECOMMENDED USE

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 warming element to keep cooked foods warm. It is not recommended for heating cold foods. The warming element is

located in the center of your cooktop. Set the switch to "ON" for use. Cover all foods with a lid or aluminum foil. Do not use plastic

wrap to cover food because it may melt onto the cooktop surface. When warming baked goods, allow a small opening in

the cover for moisture to escape.

• Use only cookware and dishes recommended for oven and cooktop use.

• Use pot holders or oven mitts to remove food.

• The warming element will not glow red when it is on, unlike the surface elements, However the surface indicator light on

the cooktop will glow.

• The warming element may be used whether the other elements are in use or not.

HOT Surface Indicator Lights

• Single HOT surface indicator light (on some models)

• Four or five HOT surface indicator lights (on other models)

• Five HOT surface indicator lights (on models equipped with Warming Element)

HI • To start foods cooking.

• To bring liquids to a boil.

8-6 • To hold a rapid boil.

• To quickly brown or sear meat.

5 • To cook gravy, pudding and sauce.

• To fry poultry or meat.

• To maintain a slow boil.

4-2 • To stew or steam food.

• To simmer food.

1 • To keep foods warm.

• To melt chocolate.

Simmer Element • Precise simmer control. (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.

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

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 in.

(2.5 cm) outside the cooking area.

• Do not place canner on two surface cooking areas, elements or surface burners at the same time.

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

• On coil element models, the installation of a Canning Unit Kit is recommended. If not installed, the life of the coil element

will be shortened.

• For more information, contact your local agricultural department. Companies that manufacture home canning products can also offer assistance.

IMPORTANT: Never leave empty cookware on a hot surface cooking area, element or surface burner.

Ideal cookware should have a flat bottom, straight sides, a well- fitting 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 it 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 non-stick finish has

the same characteristics as its base material. For example, aluminum cookware with a non-stick finish will take on the

properties of aluminum.

COOKWARE CHARACTERISTICS

Aluminum • Heats quickly and evenly.

• Suitable for all types of cooking.

• Medium or heavy thickness is best for most cooking tasks.

Cast iron • Heats slowly and evenly.

• Good for browning and frying.

• Maintains heat for slow cooking.

Ceramic or • Follow manufacturer's instructions. Ceramic glass • Heats slowly, but unevenly.

• Ideal results on low to medium heat settings.

Copper • Heats very quickly and evenly. Earthenware • Follow manufacturer's instructions.

• Use on low heat settings.

Porcelain • See stainless steel or cast iron. enamel-on-

steel or cast iron

Stainless steel • Heats quickly, but unevenly.

• A core or base of aluminum or copper on stainless steel provides even

heating.

OvenVent

1. Oven vent slide-in ranges

The oven vents should not be blocked or covered since they allow the release of hot air and moisture from the oven. Doing so will cause poor air circulation, affecting cooking and cleaning results. Never set plastics, paper or other items that could melt or burn near the oven vents. Some condensation may occur, however this will not affect cooking performance.

The oven automatically regulates the heat levels and both the top and bottom elements cycle on and off accordingly during preheat and bake to maintain a precise temperature range for optimal cooking results.

To Bake or Roast: Before baking and roasting, position the racks according to the

"Positioning Racks and Bakeware" section. When roasting, it is not necessary to wait for the oven to preheat before putting food in, unless recommended in the recipe.

1. Press BAKE. Press the TEMP "up" or "down" arrow pads (buttons) to enter

a temperature other than 350°F (175°C). Press the "up" or "down" pads (buttons) to raise or lower the temperature in

5°F/5°C increments.

2, Press START.

A preheat time will count down and "PrE" will appear on the display. The oven control automatically sets preheating times based on the oven temperature you select.

When the actual oven temperature is reached the set temperature will replace "PrE" on the display.

When the set temperature is reached, if on, one tone will sound.

3. Press OFF when finished cooking.

The temperature can be changed any time after pressing START.

Preheating 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 ten 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.

Food Poisoning Hazard

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

Doing so can result in food poisoning or sickness.

Timed Cooking allows the oven to be set to turn on at a certain time of day, cook for a set length of time, and/or shut off automatically. Delay start should not be used for food such as breads and cakes because they may not bake properly.

To Set a Cook Time:

1. Press an oven function. Press the number pads (buttons) to enter a temperature other
