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 is the safety alert symbol. 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 "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 apply too much force or weight to the open door without having 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.

IL_ Anti-Tip

"_ Bracket

Range Foot

The California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act requires the Governor of California to publish a list of substances known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive harm, and requires businesses to warn of

potential exposure to such substances. WARNING: This product contains a chemical known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects, or other

reproductive harm. This appliance can cause low-level exposure to some of the substances listed, including benzene, formaldehyde, carbon

monoxide, and toluene.

Making sure the anti-tip bracket is installed:

• Slide range forward.

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

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

iMPORTANT SAFETY iNSTRUCTiONS

WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, [] Protective Liners - Do not use aluminum foil to line surface 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 OR WALL, AND SMDE 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 backguard of a range - children climbing on the range to reach items could be

seriously injured.

[] Proper Installation - Be sure the range is properly installed

and grounded by a qualified technician. [] Never Use the Range for Warming or Heating the Room. [] Do Not Leave Children Alone - Children should not be left

alone 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 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. [] 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.

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.

[] 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.

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 flambeing foods under the hood, turn the fan on.

Cooktop On Indicator Lights

Each set of control knobs, left and right of the oven control, have a Cooktop On indicator light. When either control on a side is on,

the light will glow.

Hot Surface Indicator Light

The hot surface indicator light, located on the cooking surface, will glow as long as any surface cooking area is too hot to touch,

even after the surface cooking area(s) is turned off.

Dual Elements • Large diameter cookware.

• Large quantities of food.

• Home canning.

HI (High)

Medium High Between

HI and MED

MED (Medium) • Maintain a slow boil.

Medium Low • Stew or steam food.

Between MED and LO • Simmer.

LO (Low) • Keep food warm.

• Bring liquid to a boil.

• Hold a rapid boil.

• Quickly brown or sear food.

• Fry or saute foods.

• Cook soups, sauces and gravies.

• Melt chocolate or butter.

A. Single size (6" [15.24 crn]) B. Dual size (!0" [25.4 cm])

The dual size elements offer flexibility to cook using different sizes of cookware. The single element can be used in the same way as a regular element. The dual element combines both the inner and outer elements and is recommended for larger

cookware.

A. Dual element control - left side

B. Single element control - right side

To Use Single Element:

1. Push in and turn the control knob counterclockwise from the OFF position to the Singe zone anywhere between HI and LO.

2. Push in and turn knob to OFF when finished.

To Use Dual Element:

1. Push in and turn the control knob clockwise from the OFF position to the Dual zone anywhere between HI and LO.

2. Push in and turn knob to OFF when finished.

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

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

Cleaning off the cooktop before and after each use will help keep it free from stains and provide the most even heating. On cooktops with light colored ceramic glass, soils and stains may be more visible, and may require more cleaning and care. Cooktop cleaner and a cooktop scraper are recommended. For more information, see "General Cleaning" section.

• Avoid storing jars or cans above the cooktop. Dropping a heavy or hard object onto the cooktop could crack the cooktop.

To avoid damage to the cooktop, 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.

To avoid scratches, 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.

• To avoid damage to the cooktop, do not allow objects that could melt, such as plastic or aluminum foil, to touch any part of the entire cooktop.

• Toavoid damage to the 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"(1.3 cm)

outside the area.

" _ _ "_ ............ B

A. Surface cooking area B. Cookware/canner

C. _2" (1.3 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.

To avoid damage to the cooktop, do not cook foods directly on the cooktop.

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. On electric cooktops, canners should not extend more than 1/2"(1.3 cm) beyond the surface cooking

area or element.

• 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.

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

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 and a well-fitting lid, and the material should be of medium-to-heavy

thickness. Rough finishes may scratch the cooktop or grates. 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 afactor 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.

Cookware with nonstick surfaces should not be used under the broiler.

OVENUSE

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.

IMPORTANT: To avoid permanent damage to the oven bottom finish, do not line the oven bottom with any type of foil, liners or

cookware.

• On those models with bottom vents, do not block or cover the oven bottom vents.

• For best cooking results, do not cover entire rack with foil because air must be able to move freely.

• To catch spills, place foil on rack below dish. Make sure foil is at least 1/2"(1.3 cm) larger than the dish and that it is turned up at the edges.

IMPORTANT: To avoid permanent damage to the porcelain finish, do not place food or bakeware directly on the oven door or

bottom.

RACKS

• Position racks before turning on the oven.

• 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.

FOOD RACK POSITION(S)

Large roasts, turkeys, angel food, 1 or 2 bundt cakes, quick breads, pies

Yeast breads, casseroles, meat and 2 poultry

Cookies, biscuits, muffins, cakes 2 or 3

BAKEWARE

Hot air must be able to circulate around food to cook evenly, so allow 2" (5 cm) of space around bakeware and oven walls. Use the following chart as a guide.

NUMBER OF POSITION ON RACK PAN(S)

1 Center of rack. 2 Side by side or slightly staggered.

3 or 4 Opposite corners on each rack. Make sure

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.

A. Oven vent

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.

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

Broiling uses direct radiant heat to cook food. Changing the temperature when 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.

• For best results, use a broiler pan and grid (provided on some models). They are designed to drain juices and help avoid spatter and smoke.

If you would like to purchase a broiler pan, one may be ordered. See "Assistance or Service" section to order. Ask for

Part Number 12500100.

• For proper draining, do not cover the 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 avoid curling.

• Pull out oven rack to 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 the Broiling Chart. Preheat broil about 4 minutes. Position food on grid in the broiler pan, then place it in the center of the oven rack. Close the door.

To Broil:

1. Press BROIL. "BROIL" and "SEt" will flash in the display until the door is closed.

2. Press the PRESETS 0 number pad once to set HI Broil or twice to set LO Broil. "HI" or "LO" will be displayed.

Select HI Broil (550°F/288°C) for normal broiling or LO Broil • (450°F/232°C) for low-temperature broiling.

After 4 seconds, the oven will start. "BROIL" and "HI" or "LO" • will remain lit.

Press CANCEL when finished broiling.

BROILING CHART For best results, place food 3" (7.0 cm) or more from the broil

element. Times are guidelines only and may need to be adjusted for individual tastes. Recommended rack positions are numbered from the bottom (1) to the top (5). For diagram, see the "Positioning Racks and Bakeware" section.

Test baked goods for doneness a few minutes before the minimum cooking time with a method such as a toothpick.

Use a meat thermometer to determine the doneness of meats and poultry. Check the temperature of pork and poultry in 2 or

3 different places. Before convection cooking, position the rack(s) according to

the "Positioning Racks and Bakeware" section. When using more than one rack, position bakeware/

cookware on the racks to allow movement of the fan circulated air around the food. See the "Positioning Racks

and Bakeware" section. If the oven is full, extra cooking time may be needed.

For optimal cooking results, do not cover food with aluminum foil.

When roasting poultry and meat, use a broiler pan and grid. It is not necessary to wait for the oven to preheat, unless recommended in the recipe.

During convection cooking, the fan provides increased hot air circulation continuously and more consistently throughout the oven. The movement of heated air around the food helps to speed up cooking by penetrating the cooler outer surfaces. Food cooks more evenly, browning and crisping outer surfaces while sealing moisture inside.

During the Convect function, the ring element operates, along with the fan, to provide an indirect source of heat in the oven cavity.

If the oven door is opened during convection cooking or preheating, the element(s) and fan will turn off immediately. Once the door is closed, they will come back on.

• 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.
