COOKTOPUSE

Fire Hazard

Do not let the burner flame extend beyond the edge of

the pan. Turn off all controls when not cooking.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in death

or fire.

Electric igniters automatically light the surface burners when control knobs are turned to IGNITE.

Before setting a control knob, place filled cookware on the grate. Do not operate a burner using empty cookware or while the grate is unoccupied.

To Clean:

IMPORTANT: Before cleaning, make sure all controls are off and the oven and cooktop are cool. Do not use oven cleaners, bleach

or rust removers.

Power TM Burner (on some models)

The left front burner is designed to give ultra-high power when it is fully on. It can be used to rapidly bring liquid to a boil and to cook large quantities of food.

ACCUSIMMER _ Burner (on some models) The right rear burner has an adjustable heat setting for more

precise simmering and low temperature cooking.

Power failure

In case of prolonged power failure, the surface burners can be lit manually. Hold a lit match near a burner and turn knob counterclockwise to IGNITE. After burner lights, turn knob to setting.

IMPORTANT: Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air around the burner grate edges.

To Set:

1. Push in and turn knob counterclockwise to IGNITE. All 4 surface burners will click. Only the burner with the

control knob turned to IGNITE will produce a flame.

2. Turn knob anywhere between HIGH and LOW. Use the following chart as a guide when setting heat levels.

SETTING RECOMMENDED USE

IGNITE • Light the burner. HIGH • Start food cooking.

• Bring liquid to a boil.

Between • Hold a rapid boil. HIGH and LOW

LOW • Keep food warm.

REMEMBER: When range is in use or (on some models)

during the Self-Cleaning cycle, the entire cooktop area may

become hot. I

• Quickly brown or sear food.

• Fry or saute foods.

• Cook soups, sauces and gravies.

• Stew or steam foods.

• Simmer.

A. Burner cap B. Burner base

C. Alignment pins D. Igniter

E.Gas tube opening

Burner cap: Always keep the burner cap in place when using a surface burner. A clean burner cap will help prevent poor ignition and uneven flames. Always clean the burner cap after a spillover and routinely remove and clean the caps according to the "General Cleaning" section.

Gas tube opening: Gas must flow freely throughout the gas tube opening for the burner to light properly. Keep this area free of soil and do not allow spills, food, cleaning agents or any other material to enter the gas tube opening. Protect it from spillovers by always using a burner cap.

A. 1-1V2" (25-38 mm) B. Burner ports

Burner ports: Check burner flames occasionally for proper size and shape as shown above. A good flame is blue in color, not

yellow. Keep this area free of soil and do not allow spills, food,

cleaning agents or any other material to enter the burner ports.

To Clean: IMPORTANT: Before cleaning, make sure all controls are off and

the oven and cooktop are cool. Do not use oven cleaners, bleach

or rust removers.

1. Remove the burner cap from the burner base and clean according to "General Cleaning" section.

2. Clean the gas tube opening with a damp cloth.

3. Clean clogged burner ports with a straight pin as shown. Do not enlarge or distort the port. Do not use a wooden toothpick. If the burner needs to be adjusted, contact a trained repair specialist.

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. 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.

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

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

4. Replace the burner cap, making sure the alignment pins are properly aligned with the burner cap.

A. Incorrect B. Correct

Turn on the burner. If the burner does not light, check cap alignment. Ifthe burner still does not light, do not service the sealed burner yourself. Contact a trained repair specialist.

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. 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 your local U.S. Government

Agricultural Department Extension Office. In Canada, contact Agriculture Canada. Companies that manufacture home canning products can also offer assistance.

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.

May need to reduce baking

temperatures 25°F (15°C).

Use suggested baking time. For pies, breads and casseroles,

use temperature recommended in recipe.

• Place rack in center of oven.

• Place in the bottom third of oven.

• May need to increase baking time.

• May need to reduce baking temperatures 25°F (15°C).

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 oven 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.

ACCUBAKE ®DUO SYSTEM ®Temperature Management (on some models)

The ACCUBAKE ®DUO SYSTEM _temperature management technology uses two sensors to maintain even temperature.

The two temperature sensors independently control the bake and broil burners for optimal cooking results. The bake and broil cycle on and off in intervals. 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.

2. Press TEMP or TEMP/TIME "up" or "down" arrow pad to set a temperature other than 350°F (175°C) in 5°F (3°C) amounts. The bake range can be set between 170°F and 500°F (75°C and 260°C).

When the oven temperature is greater than 170°F (77°C), no preheat conditioning time will be shown in the display. The preheat conditioning time will not change if the temperature is

reset before the countdown time ends. Press START or START/ENTER. The temperature can be

changed after this step. The start pad does not need to be pressed again.

If baking and roasting while the minute timer is counting down, the set temperature can be seen for 5 seconds by pressing BAKE.

4. Press CANCEL or OFF/CANCEL when finished.

Preheating

After the start pad is pressed, the oven will enter a timed preheat conditioning. "PrE" (on some models) and the countdown time will appear on the display. 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 due to the cycling of the elements.

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.

iiio :i

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 ® cycle. However, when CHOICE BAKE is selected, the broil burner does not cycle on. This reduces top browning of foods and gives

you more customized control of your cooking results.

To Use:

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 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 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. 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.

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.

IMPORTANT: Food must be at serving temperature before

placing it in the warmed oven. Food may be held up to 1 hour, however breads and casseroles may become too dry if left inthe

oven during Warm Hold. Warm Hold Feature allows hot cooked foods to stay serving

temperature. It can also be used at the end of a timed cook.

To Use Automatic Warm Hold Feature:

At the end of a timed cook, either with or without a delayed start,

or at the end of a sequence program in which the last step is not

the Warm Hold mode, the oven will automatically default to a

1-hour warm hold mode at 170°F (77°C). When the cook time ends or the last step of the sequence is

complete, the display will show a warming countdown time. When warming ends, the oven will automatically shut off and "End" will appear on the display, Four tones will sound, and then

four 1-second reminder tones will sound every minute thereafter. To Disable Automatic Warm Hold: Press and hold WARM for

5 seconds. "Off" will appear in the 4-digit display. Repeat to turn back on.

When using the Automatic Warm Hold Feature, cook times may need to be adjusted accordingly so that foods do not become overcooked and dry.

To Use Manual Warm Hold Feature:

1. Press WARM.

2. Set the temperature (optional). Press the TEMP "up" or "down" arrow pad to raise or lower

the temperature in 5°F (3°C) amounts to set a temperature other than 150°F (66°C), The warm range is 100°F-200°F (38°C-93°C).

3. Press START.

4. Press OFF/CANCEL when finished.
