RANGESA£EI

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 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

This is the safety alert symbol. "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 rangewill not tip during normal use. However, the range can tip if you applytoo much force or weight to the open door without 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.

Anti-Tip Bracket

Range Foot

Making sure the anti-tip bracket is installed:

• Slide range forward.

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

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

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: 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, 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 back- guard 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 under- sized 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 under- neath to damage.

[] 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.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

• 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.

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 on.

Control Knob Settings Control knobs must be pushed in before turning them to a

setting. The controls can be set anywhere between HI and "0" (OFF). On models with Ceramic Glass, the controls work on the principle of percent on, percent off. When the control is turned to setting 5, the element will be on 50% of the time. Radiant heat elements heat-up quickly. You will notice, and perhaps even hear, the element switching on and off. Use the following chart as a guide when setting heat levels.

SETTING RECOMMENDED USE

HI • To start foods cooking.

• To bring liquids to a boil.

8-6 • To hold a rapid boil.

• To quickly brown or sear meat.

Fire Hazard

Turn off all controls when done cooking. Failure to do so can result in death or fire.

HOT Surface Indicator Lights

• Single HOTsurface indicator light (on some models)

• Four HOT surface indicator lights (on other models)

The HOT surface indicator lights on the cooktop surface will glow when their corresponding surface elements are turned on. The

HOT surface indicator lights will continue to glow as long as the elements are too hot to touch, even after they are turned off.

NOTE: Heat from the oven vent may cause the left rear HOT surface indicator light to glow to show that the area is too warm

to touch.

Simmer Element (on some models)

The simmer element is identified on the disc in the center of the element. This element can maintain lower temperatures for

preparation of foods that require very low heat like sauces, chocolate or cheese.

Power On Lights

The Power On lights beside the control knobs indicate which surface elements are turned on. A Power On light will glow when its corresponding surface element is turned on.

5 • To cook gravy, pudding and sauce.

• To fry poultry or meat.

• To maintain a slow boil.

4-2 • To stew or steam food.

• To simmer food.

1 • To keep foods warm.

• To melt chocolate.

Simmer Element • Precise simmer control. (on some models)

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

Drip bowls should be used at all times. Do not use aluminum foil to cover drip bowls. Use of aluminum foil could result in improper cooking, or damage to the element.

• Prolonged use of elements without pots can cause damage and early failure.

• Use of round bottom woks is not recommended.

• The temperature of the cooktop surface increases with the number of elements that are on. With 3 or 4 elements turned

on, surface temperatures are high.

See the "General Cleaning" section, for care and cleaning instructions.

Quick light radiant heating elements:

The quick light radiant heating elements are designed for fast heat response. You can see them light up in just seconds.

These elements consist of a set of special heater coils embedded in a thermal insulation material. You may notice the element going

on and off a number of times during use. This is a normal occurrence.

To maximize the efficiency of this type of heater coil, we suggest you use it similarly to your previous element type. Turn to

maximum until the desired temperature is reached, then turn it down to the setting that best maintains the desired heat.

See the "General Cleaning" section, for care and cleaning suggestions. Do not use the range if the cooktop is cracked or

broken.

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 in.

(2.5 cm) outside the cooking area.

• Do not place canner on two surface cooking areas, elements or surface burners at the same time.

• On ceramic glass models, only use flat-bottomed canners.

• On coil element models, the installation of a Canning Unit Kit is recommended. If not installed, the life of the coil element

will be shortened.

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

IMPORTANT: Never leave empty cookware on a hot surface cooking area, element or surface burner.

Ideal cookware should have a flat bottom, straight sides, 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 it 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 non-stick finish has the same characteristics as its base material. For example,

aluminum cookware with a non-stick finish will take on the properties of aluminum.

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

COOKWARE CHARACTERISTICS

Aluminum • Heats quickly and evenly.

• Suitable for all types of cooking.

• Medium or heavy thickness is best for most cooking tasks.

Cast iron

Ceramic or Ceramic glass

Copper Earthenware

Porcelain

enamel-on-steel

or cast iron

Stainless steel • Heats quickly, but unevenly.

When the range is first plugged in, or after a power interruption, the display will flash "12:00" until the CLOCK pad (button) is pressed.

When the oven is in use, the display shows preheat time and the temperature and oven setting.

When the oven is not in use, the display shows the time of day. When using the TIMER, for settings of 1-59 minutes, the display

will count down in seconds. For settings I hour or over, the display will count down hours and minutes.

When using COOK TIME, the display will show hours and minutes.

• Heats slowly and evenly.

• Good for browning and frying.

• Maintains heat for slow cooking.

• Follow manufacturer's instructions.

• Heats slowly, but unevenly.

• Ideal results on low to medium heat settings.

• Heats very quickly and evenly.

BEFOREUSING

Odors are normal when the range is new. This happens the first time the oven is used.

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: Do not line the oven bottom with any type of foil, liners or cookware because permanent damage will occur to the

oven bottom finish.

• Do not cover entire rack with foil because air must be able to move freely for best cooking results.

• To catch spills, place foil on rack below dish. Make sure foil is at least 1 in. (2.5 cm) larger than the dish and that it is turned up at the edges.

• Do not cover food with aluminum foil when convection cooking (on some models).

IMPORTANT: Never place food or bakeware directly on the oven door or bottom. Permanent damage will occur to the porcelain

finish.

RACKS

Position racks before turning the oven on. 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.

tl 6" 1

IMPORTANT: Do not use a thermometer to measure oven temperature because opening the oven door and element or

burner cycling may give incorrect readings. The oven provides accurate temperatures; however, it may cook

faster or slower than your previous oven, so the temperature calibration can be adjusted, It can be changed in Fahrenheit or

Celsius. A minus sign means the oven will be cooler by the displayed

amount. No sign means the oven will be warmer by the displayed amount. Use the following chart as a guide.

Use this setting for normal broiling and top browning with the door open in the Broil Stop position.

• Use only the broiler pan and grid provided with the appliance. 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.

This setting can also be used for Vari-Broil with the door closed. The element will cycle off and on to maintain the preset temperature.
