IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
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.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of
fire, electric 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 ANTI­TIP 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 backguard of a range – children climbing on the range to reach items could be seriously injured.
5
Range Safety
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 cook-top and surfaces facing the cook-top.
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.
Protective Liners – Do not use aluminum foil to line 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 Cook on Broken Cook-Top – If cook-top should break, cleaning solutions and spillovers may penetrate the broken cook-top and create a risk of electric shock. Contact a qualified technician immediately.
Clean Cook-Top 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.

Range Safety
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.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
– 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 off. The fan, if operating, may spread the flame.

U sing and Caring for Your Cooktop
Using the dual-size surface cooking area
(some models)
You can use the right rear surface cooking area as either a small diameter, lower wattage element or large diameter, full wattage element.
To use the small element (for smaller pans):
Push in and turn the control knob to the
left (counterclockwise) to the desired setting in the area marked “SINGLE.”
To use both elements (for larger pans):
Push in and turn the control knob to the
right (clockwise) to the desired setting in the area marked “DUAL.”
NOTE: You can turn the control knob in
either direction to reach “OFF.”
The ceramic glass cooktop
Hot surface indicator lights
Standard elements
Halogen elements
(some models)
Cooking on the ceramic glass cooktop is almost the same as cooking on coil elements. There are, however, a few differences:
The surface cooking area will glow red
when the element is turned on. You will see the element cycling on and off – even on the HI setting – to help the area stay at the temperature setting you choose.
Wiping off the cooktop before and after
each use will help keep the surface free from stains and give you the most even heating. See “Cleaning the cooktop” in the “Caring for Your Range” section.
Do not cook foods directly on the cooktop.
Lift pots and pans onto and off of the
cooktop. Sliding pots and pans on the cooktop could leave marks that are difficult to remove or could leave permanent marks.
Do not cook popcorn that comes in
prepackaged aluminum containers on the cooktop. The container could leave aluminum marks on the cooktop that cannot be removed completely.
Do not use the cooktop as a cutting board.
Do not allow anything that could melt,
such as plastic or aluminum foil, to come in contact with the cooktop while it is hot.
Dropping a heavy or hard object on the
cooktop could crack it. Be careful when using heavy skillets and large pots. Do not store jars or cans above the cooktop.
Sugary spills and soils can cause pitting.
See “Cleaning the cooktop” in the “Caring for Your Range” section.
Use both elements for larger pans
Use small element for smaller pans

U sing and Caring for Your Cooktop
Cookware tips
Use the correct cookware to prevent
damage to the surface cooking area, cooktop, wiring, and surrounding areas.
If the cookware is too small for the
surface cooking area or the bottom is not flat, the surface cooking area could stay glowing red for an extended length of time causing damage to the range.
If you start cooking on high, it is impor-
tant to turn the control down to a lower setting to complete cooking.
Flat-bottomed cookware, including woks,
canners, and teakettles, will provide better contact with the surface cooking area and provide the best cooking results.
Warped, dented, and ribbed-bottomed
cookware can result in uneven cooking due to incomplete contact with the surface cooking area.
Cookware that has been designed with
slightly indented bottoms or small expan­sion channels can be used.
Choose medium to heavy gauge
(thickness) cookware.
The pan material (type of metal or
glass) affects how quickly and evenly the pan heats.
Check for rough spots on the bottom of
your metal or glass cookware which could scratch the ceramic glass surface.
Make sure the bottoms of pots and pans
are clean and dry before using them. Food and water particles left on the bottoms can leave deposits on the cooktop when it is heated.
NOTE: Do not leave empty cookware, or
cookware which has boiled dry, on a hot surface cooking area. The cookware could overheat, causing damage to the cookware or surface cooking area.
Home canning information
Use flat-bottomed canner/pan.
Canners with rippled or ridged bottoms do not allow good contact with the surface cooking area.
Use the largest surface cooking area
and center the canner/pan on it. A large diameter canner/pan, if not centered correctly, can trap heat and cause damage to the cooktop.
Do not place your canner/pan on
2 surface cooking areas at the same time. Too much heat will build up and damage the cooktop.
Start with hot water. This reduces the
time the control is set on high. Reduce the heat setting to the lowest position needed to keep water boiling.
When canning for long periods of
time, alternate use of the surface cooking areas between batches to allow the areas to cool down, or prepare food in small batches.
Refer to your canner manual for specific
instructions.

Energy saving tips
Although the energy used for cooking is usually a very small percentage of the total energy used in the home, cooking energy can be used efficiently. Here are some tips to help you save energy when using your cooking product:
Cooktop
Match the pan to the surface cooking
area size.
The pan should have a flat bottom,
straight sides, and a well-fitting lid.
To help shorten your cooking time, use
the least amount of liquid possible.
Preheat your pots and pans only when
recommended and for the shortest time possible.
Caring for your cooktop
Your cooktop is designed for easy care. However, you need to maintain your ceramic glass cooktop differently than you would standard electric open-coil elements. Foods spilled directly on the cooktop will not burn off as on open-coil elements. Because of this, you should keep the surface dust free and soil free before heating.
Your cooktop has been prepolished at the factory for improved protection and easier cleaning. The Cooktop Polishing Creme included with your range, paper towels or a sponge, and a single-edge razor blade in the holder are all you need to clean your cooktop. For proper cleaning methods, please review “Cleaning tips” later in this section.
Follow them each time you use your cooktop. This will ensure you get the best performance out of your cooktop, as well as preserve that uniquely elegant look.
NOTE: Let cooktop cool before cleaning. To avoid damaging the cooktop, follow
these instructions:
Remove sugar spills and soils from the
cooktop while the surface is still warm to avoid pitting on the surface.
Marks from sliding metal pans on the
cooktop are difficult to remove completely. Use cooktop polishing creme to clean the area. Several applications may be necessary.
Do not use steel wool, plastic cleaning
pads, gritty powdered cleansers, chlorine bleach, rust remover, ammonia, or glass cleaning products with ammonia. These could damage the cooktop surface.

Start your food on a higher heat setting,
then turn the control to a lower setting to finish cooking.
Place a filled pan on the surface cooking
area before turning it on.
Oven
“Oven peeking” can make cooking
times longer and affect the food quality.
Rely on a timer to keep track of
cooking time.
Plan your meals for the most efficient use
of the oven by cooking more than one food at a time, or baking while the oven is still hot after cooking a meal.
It is not necessary to preheat the oven
when broiling or roasting, unless your recipe recommends doing so.

Cleaning tips
What to use:
Cooktop Polishing Creme (included
with your range) with paper towel or clean, damp sponge – This creme has
been developed especially for cleaning and protecting your cooktop. When using the creme, follow the instructions on the container.
Razor scraper in a holder (not included
with your range) – Use to remove cooked-on soils from your ceramic glass cooktop. To avoid scratches, keep the razor blade as flat against the cooktop as possible. Store
razor blades out of reach of children.
Steps to follow:
1. Most spills can be wiped off easily using
a paper towel or clean, damp sponge as soon as the Hot Surface Indicator Light goes off.
2. For stubborn spills, rub Cooktop
Polishing Creme into cooked-on soil using a paper towel. If some soil remains, leave some creme on the spot(s) and follow Step 3.
3. Carefully scrape spots with the razor
scraper.
4. Finish by polishing entire cooktop
with Cooktop Polishing Creme and a paper towel.
To order Cooktop Polishing Creme (Part No. 3184477), call 1-800-422-1230.
You will hear a recording. Follow the steps to place an order.
How to keep your cooktop looking like new:
IF THERE ARE Sugary spills
and soils (such
as jellies and candy syrups)
Dark streaks, specks, and discoloration
Metal marks
(from copper and aluminum pans)
Tiny scratches or abrasions
WHAT TO DO
To prevent pitting on the cooktop, wipe up with a paper towel or clean, damp sponge
while the ceramic glass surface is still warm. Remove spills
as soon as possible after they occur.
Use the Cooktop Polishing Creme or a nonabrasive cleanser with a damp paper towel or sponge.
Use the Cooktop Polishing Creme with a damp paper towel or sponge before heating the cooktop again. If heated before cleaning, metal marks may not come off.
Scratches and abrasions do not affect cooking. After many cleanings, they will become less visible. To prevent scratches and abrasions, use the Cooktop Polishing Creme regularly.
NOTE: Always wipe your cooktop with clean
water and dry it well after using the cleanser to prevent streaking or staining.

When you first plug in the range, a tone
will sound, the display will be fully lit for a few seconds, and the display will show the last time set and “PF” (power failure). If, after you set the clock (see “Setting the clock” later in this section), the display again shows “PF,” your electricity was off for a while. Reset the clock.
The time display will show “Err” and 3
short tones will sound if a time or tempera­ture is incorrectly entered.
