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:

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 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.

■ 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.

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF TIPPING OF

■ 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.

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.

WARNING

Fire Hazard

Turn off all controls when done cooking.

Failure to do so can result in death or fire.

COOKTOP USE

■ To avoid scratches, do not slide cookware or bakeware across

the cooktop. Aluminum or copper bottoms and rough nishes 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.

■ To avoid 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.

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

IMPORTANT: When cooktop is in use, the Self-Cleaning cycle will be disabled. When the Self-Cleaning cycle is in use, the cooktop will be locked.

Ceramic Glass (on some models)

The surface cooking area will glow red when an element is ON. Some parts of the surface cooking area may not glow red when an element is ON. This is normal operation. It will also randomly cycle off and back on again, even while on High, to keep the cooktop from extreme temperatures.

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.

Clean the cooktop after each use to help avoid scratches, pitting, abrasions and to condition the glass surface. Ceramic glass cooktop cleaner and a cooktop scraper are also recommended for stubborn soils. Do not use abrasive cleaners, cleaning pads, or harsh chemicals for cleaning. Refer to the “Range Care” section for additional information.

IMPORTANT: To avoid permanent damage to the cooktop surface and to make soils easier to remove, clean the cooktop after each use to remove all soils.

■ 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 using a scraper 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.

A. Surface cooking area B. Cookware/canner C. 1/2" (1.3 cm) maximum overhang

■ Use at-bottomed cookware for best heat conduction and

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

■ Determine atness 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.

Ceramic Glass Cooktop Cleaning (on some models)

IMPORTANT: To avoid permanent damage to the cooktop surface and to make soils easier to remove, clean the cooktop after each use to remove all soils.

Cooktop On Indicator Light

The Cooktop On indicator light is located on the display panel. When any cooktop element on the console panel is turned on, the Cooktop On indicator light will glow.

Hot Surface Indicator Light

On ceramic glass models, the Hot Surface indicator light is located on the display panel.

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 is turned off.

The control lock cannot be turned on or off while the Hot Surface indicator light is on. Wait for the Hot Surface indicator light to turn off before turning the control lock on or off.

Coil Elements and Burner Bowls (on some models)

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

Cookware should not extend more than 1/2" (1.3 cm) over the coil element. If cookware is uneven or too large, it can produce excess heat, causing the burner bowl to change color.

Dual Zone Cooking Element (on some models)

The Dual Zone Cooking Element offers exibility depending on the size of the cookware. Single size can be used in the same way as a regular element. The dual size combines both the single and outer elements and is recommended for larger size cookware.

1. Press ON/OFF for the desired Dual Zone element.

2. Press SIZE to select dual element and a picture of the dual

element will appear.

3. Press the “up” and “down” element arrow keypads to adjust the heating element to the desired level.

4. To switch back to the single element, press SIZE.

5. Press ON/OFF for the selected element to turn the

element off.

A. Dual cooking element

Melt Cooking Element

The Melt cooking element offers exibility due to a wide range of settings between High and Melt. The High heat option can be used to boil small amounts of liquid quickly. The lowest setting can be used to prepare sauces and to keep foods at a low temperature. Use cookware appropriate in size for the Melt element.

To reduce the power setting to Melt, press the “down” arrow for the Melt element until “Melt” appears in the display.

Cookware

IMPORTANT: Do not leave empty cookware on a hot surface

cooking area, element, or surface burner. Ideal cookware should have a at bottom, straight sides, and a

well-tting lid, and the material should be of medium-to-heavy thickness.

Rough nishes 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 surfaces.

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

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

Check for atness 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.

because air must be able to move freely.

Positioning Racks and Bakeware

IMPORTANT: To avoid permanent damage to the porcelain

nish, do not place food or bakeware directly on the oven door orbottom.

Bakeware

To cook food evenly, hot air must be able to circulate. Allow 2" (5cm) of space around bakeware and oven walls. Make sure thatno bakeware piece is directly over another.

Racks

■ Position racks before turning on the oven.

■ Do not position 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, and then lift out. Use the following illustration as a guide.

5 4 3 2

Rack Positions

Rack 5: Toasting bread or broiling thin, non-fatty foods Rack 4: 2-rack baking and broiling Rack 3: Most baked goods on a cookie sheet, mufn pan, or jelly

roll pan; layer cakes; broiling chicken pieces Rack 2: Pies, casseroles, yeast bread, quick breads, frozen

convenience foods, 2-rack baking Rack 1: Roasting large and small cuts of meat and poultry

Multiple Rack Cooking

2-rack: Use rack positions 2 and 4.

Baking Layer Cakes on 2 Racks

For best results when baking cakes on 2 racks, use racks 2 and 4 for baking. Place the cakes on the racks as shown.

Broiling

NOTE: The convection fan will shut off when the oven door is

IMPORTANT: Close the door to ensure proper broiling temperature.

Changing the temperature when Custom Broiling allows more precise control when cooking. The lower the broil setting is, the slower the cooking. Thicker cuts and unevenly shaped pieces of meat, sh, and poultry may cook better at lower broil settings. Use rack 4 or 5 for broiling. Refer to the “Positioning Racks and Bakeware” section for more information.

On lower settings, the broil element will cycle on and off to maintain the proper temperature.

■ For best results, use a broiler pan and grid. It is designed to

drain juices and help avoid spatter and smoke.

NOTE: Odors and smoke are normal the rst few times the oven is used or if the oven is heavily soiled.

Cook Time

Oven Vent

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.

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"(1.3 cm) over the element.

Baking and Roasting

NOTE: The convection fan will shut off when the oven door is

ACCUBAKE® Temperature Management System

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 or burners cycle on and off in intervals. On convection range models, the fan will run while preheating and may be cycled on and off for short intervals during Bake to provide the best results. This feature is automatically activated when the oven is in use.

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

Preheating

When Start is pressed, the oven will begin preheating. Once 100ºF (38ºC) is reached, the display temperature will increase as the actual temperature of the oven increases. When the preheat temperature is reached, a tone will sound and the selected temperature will appear on the display.
