IMPORTANT: To avoid damage to griddle, the griddle is to be
used on the side burners only and with low flame.
Before First Use:
Wash the griddle with warm soapy water. Rinse and dry
thoroughly. To avoid sticking, rub the surface with vegetable oil,
and wipe excess off with a paper towel.
• Do not leave empty griddle on a hot surface cooking area or
surface burner.
• Do not overheat the griddle. The nonstick coating could be
damaged.
• The griddle should not be used to bake, broil or microwave.
• To reduce spattering or grease spillover while cooking, avoid
cooking food with excess fat.
• To preserve durability, do not cut food on the griddle.
Avoid use of metal utensils.
Home Canning
When canning for long periods, alternate the use of surface
burners between batches. This allows time for the most recently
used areas to cool.
• Center the canner on the grate above the burner.
• Do not place canner on 2 surface burners at the same time.
• For more information, contact your local agricultural
department. Companies that manufacture home canning

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 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.
COOKWARE CHARACTERISTICS

Oven Vent
//77tllft1111tt11111\\\
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.
Baking and Boastin 9
IMPORTANT: To avoid damage to the interior finish, do not place
food or cookware on the oven door or oven bottom.
Before baking and roasting, position racks according to the
"Positioning Racks and Bakeware" section.
To Bake or Roast:
1. Press BAKE.
Press TEMP/TIME or TEMP/HOUR "up" or "down" arrow
pads to set a temperature other than 350°F (175°C) in 5°
amounts. The bake range can be set between 170°F and
500°F (75°C and 260°C).
2. Press START or START/ENTER.
The temperature can be changed at any time after this step
by pressing the Temp/Time or Temp/Hour "up" or "down"
arrow pads. Start does not need to be pressed again. If
baking/roasting while the Timer is counting down, the set
baking/roasting temperature can be displayed for 5 seconds
by pressing Bake.
3. Press OFF/CANCEL or CANCEL/OFF when finished.
Preheating
After Start is pressed, the oven will enter a timed preheat cycle.
The bake indicator light will light up. The Electronic Oven Control
automatically selects the preheat cycle time based on the oven
temperature selected. The cycle time will not change if the
temperature is reset before the cycle countdown ends. Preheat is
complete and the oven is ready to use when a 1-second tone
sounds, the cycle countdown ends, and the set temperature is
displayed.
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 10 minutes after the preheat 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.
IMPORTANT: When the oven is baking, the burner in the broiler
drawer will be on. Do not store anything in the broiler drawer.
BROILER
The broiler is located below the oven door. Use an oven rack for
broiling. To remove a rack, pull it out to the stop position, raise
the front edge, then lift out. Reverse the steps to replace a rack.
Always broil with both the broiler and the oven doors closed.
• To avoid damage to the broiler, do not step on or apply
weight to the broiler door while it is open.
• Preheat the broiler before use. Recommended preheat times
can be found in the Broiling Chart. Completely close broiler
door during broiling.
• Do not use broiler cavity for storage.
• 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. It is designed to
drain juices and help avoid spatter and smoke.
If you would like to purchase a broiler pan, one may be
ordered. Please refer to the cover for contact information. Ask
for Part Number 4396923.
Pull out the rack to the 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.
To Broil:
1. Open the broiler door and pull the rack out to the stop
position.
2. Place food on a grid in a broiler pan, then place it in the
center of the oven rack.
3. Push the oven rack back to the original position. Close the
door to ensure proper broiling temperature.
4. Press BROIL.
The BROIL indicator light will light up.
5. Press START.
The indicator light will light up. The temperature setting can
be changed at any time during broiling. If broiling while the
Timer is counting down, the set broiling temperature can be
displayed for 5 seconds by touching BROIL.
6. Press OFF/CANCEL or CANCEL!OFF 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 foods and tastes. Broiling may be affected by the
size, weight and thickness of food.
