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 is the safety alert symbol. 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 "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.

...... Anti-Tip IIB aoket

The range will not tip during normal use. However, the range can tip if you apply too much force or weight to the open door without having the anti-tip bracket fastened down properly.

Tip Over Hazard

A child or adult can tip the range and be killed. Verify the anti-tip bracket has been properly installed and engaged per installation instructions.

Re-engage anti-tip bracket if range is moved. Do not operate range without anti-tip bracket installed and engaged.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in death or serious burns to children and adults.

To verify the anti-tip bracket is installed and engaged:

"-Bracket

State of California Proposition 65 Warnings: WARNING: This product contains one or more chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer.

WARNING: This product contains one or more chemicals known to the State of California to cause birth defects or other reproductive harm.

• Slide range forward.

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

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

• See installation instructions for details.

iMPORTANT SAFETY iNSTRUCTiONS

WARN(NG: 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 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.

[] 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.

Technology

AquaLift ®Self-Cleaning Technology is a first-of-its-kind cleaning solution designed to minimize the time, temperature, and odors that ordinarily come with traditional self-cleaning methods. With AquaLift ®Self-Cleaning Technology, an innovative coating on the

interior of the oven is activated with heat and water to release baked-on soil. To use AquaLift _ Self-Cleaning Technology, simply

wipe out loose debris, pour water into the oven bottom, and run the AquaLift ®Self-Cleaning cycle. When the cycle finishes in under 1 hour at a lower temperature than traditional self-cleaning methods, just wipe out the remaining water and loose debris. See the "Clean Cycle" section for more detailed instructions. For additional information, frequently asked questions and videos on using AquaLift _ Self-Cleaning Technology, visit our website at

When the range is in use, all range surfaces may become hot, such as the knobs and oven door.

Ceram)c G)ass Cooktop C)eaning

To avoid damaging the cooktop, do not use steel wool, abrasive powder cleansers, chlorine bleach, rust remover or ammonia.

1. Remove food/residue with the Cooktop Scraper.

For best results, use the Cooktop Scraper while the

cooktop is still warm, but not hot to the touch. It is recommended to wear an oven mitt while scraping the

warm cooktop.

Hold the Cooktop Scraper at approximately a 45° angle

against the glass surface and scrape the residue. It will be necessary to apply pressure in order to remove the residue.

Allow the cooktop to cool down completely before proceeding to Step 2.

Apply a few dime-sized drops of affresh ®Cooktop Cleaner to the affected areas.

Warming or Storage Drawer When the oven is in use, the drawer may become hot. Do not store

plastics, cloth, or other items that could melt or burn in the drawer. Oven Vent The oven vent releases hot air and moisture from the oven, and

should not be blocked or covered. Do not set plastics, paper or other items that could melt or burn near the oven vent.

increases the oven temperature. The actual oven temperature will go above your set temperature to offset the heat lost when your

oven door is opened to insert food. This ensures that when you place your food in the oven, the oven will begin at the proper

temperature. Insert your food when the preheat tone sounds. Do not open the door during preheat before the tone sounds.

• Rub affresh®Cooktop Cleaner onto the cooktop surface with the blue Cooktop Cleaning Pad. Some pressure is

needed to remove stubborn stains.

• Allow the cleaner to dry to a white haze before proceeding to Step 3.

3. Polish with a clean, dry cloth or a clean, dry paper towel.

• Repeat steps 1 - 3 as necessary for stubborn or burned- on stains.

The Complete Cooktop Cleaner Kit is available for order including the following:

• Cooktop Scraper

• affresh ®Cooktop Cleaner

• Blue Cooktop Cleaning Pads See the "Accessories" section for ordering information and part

numbers.

Fire Hazard

Turn off all controls when done cooking.

Failure to do so can result in death or fire.

To avoid scratches, do not slide cookware or bakeware across the cooktop. Aluminum or copper bottoms and rough finishes

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.

I REMEMBER: When range is in use, the entire cooktop area J

Ceramic Glass (on some models) The surface cooking area may glow red when an element is on.

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

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. The Cooktop Care Kit contains all of the items needed to clean and condition your ceramic glass cooktop. 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.

Z....................C

A. Surface cooking area B. Cookware/canner

C. V2"(1.3 cm) maximum overhang

Use flat-bottomed cookware for best heat conduction and

energy efficiency. Cookware with rounded, warped, ribbed or dented bottoms could cause uneven heating and poor cooking

results. Determine flatness 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.

Coil Elements and Burner Bowls (on some models) Coil elements should be level for optimal cooking results. Burner

bowls, when clean, reflect heat back to the cooktop. 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.

Cooktop On Indicator Light The Cooktop On indicator light is located on the console panel.

When any control knob on the console panel is turned on, the Cooktop On indicator light will glow.

Hot Surface Indicator Light (on some models) On ceramic glass models, the hot surface indicator light is located

on the console 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.

Dual Zone Cooking Element (on some models)

The Dual Zone Cooking Element offers flexibility 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 element and is recommended for larger size cookware.

Food Poisoning Hazard

Do not let food sit for more than one hour before or

after cooking.

Doing so can result in food poisoning or sickness.

Use the Cooktop Warm Zone element to keep cooked foods warm. One hour is the recommended maximum time to maintain food

quality. Do not use it to heat cold foods.

The Warm Zone element can be used alone or when any of the other surface cooking areas are being used.

The Warm Zone element area will not glow red when cycling on. However, the Cooktop Warm Zone Indicator will be displayed when

the Warm Zone is in use.

• Use only cookware recommended for oven and cooktop use.

• Cover all foods with a lid or aluminum foil. When warming baked goods, allow a small opening in the cover for moisture to

escape.

• To avoid damage to the cooktop, do not use plastic wrap to cover food because the plastic wrap may melt.

• Use pot holders or oven mitts to remove food.

Canning

Canning can be performed on a glass smooth top cooking surface or traditional coil element cooktop. When canning for long periods,

alternate the use of surface cooking areas or elements between batches. This allows time for the most recently used areas to cool.

• Center the canner on the largest surface cooking area or element. On electric cooktops, canners should not extend more than 1/2"(1.3 cm) beyond the surface cooking area or

element.

• Do not place canner on 2 surface cooking areas or elements at the same time.

On ceramic glass models, use only flat-bottomed canners to avoid damage to the cooktop and elements.

For more information, contact your local agricultural extension office, or refer to published home canning guides. Companies that manufacture home canning products can also offer

assistance.

IMPORTANT: To avoid permanent damage to the oven bottom finish, do not line the oven bottom with any type of foil or liner.

For best cooking results, do not cover entire oven rack with foil because air must be able to move freely.

IIPositio ing Racks and IIBakewa ÷

IMPORTANT: To avoid permanent damage to the porcelain finish, 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.

*If your model has a Max Capacity Oven Rack, the recessed ends

must be placed in the rack position above the desired position of the food. See the following illustration.

A. Ends of rack in position 3 B. Food in position 2

IMPORTANT: These rack positions are for flat racks. If a Max Capacity Oven Rack is used, the rack position must be adjusted as shown in the previous figure.

Racks

• Position racks before turning on the oven.

• 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,

and then lift out. Use the following illustration and charts as a guide.

The oven has 7 positions for a flat rack, as shown in the previous illustration and the following table.

Flat Rack Position* Type of Food

7 Broiling/searing meats, hamburgers,

steaks

6 Broiled meats, poultry, fish 3 or 4 Most baked goods, casseroles, frozen

foods

2 Roasted meats

1 Large roasts or poultry

For hamburger patties to have a well-seared exterior and a rare interior, use a flat rack in rack position 7. Side 1 should cook for approximately 21/2- 3V2minutes. Side 2 should cook for approximately 4-5 minutes. Expect a moderate degree of smoke when broiling.

Multiple Rack Cooking 2-rack (non-convection): Use rack positions 2 and 5 or 3 and 6.

2-rack (convection): Use rack positions 2 and 5 or 3 and 6. 3-rack (convection): Use a flat rack in rack positions 2 and 7 and a

Max Capacity Oven Rack in rack position 5.

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 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.

Sabbath Mode

The Sabbath Mode sets the oven to remain on in a bake setting until turned off.

When the Sabbath Mode is set, only the Bake cycle will operate. All other cooking and cleaning cycles are disabled. No tones will sound, and the displays will not indicate temperature changes.

When the oven door is opened or closed, the oven light will not turn on or off and the heating elements will not turn on or off

immediately.

To Enable Sabbath Mode Capability (one time only):

1. Press SETTINGS/CLOCK until "SABBATH" is displayed. "OFR Press (1) for On" will scroll in the display.

2. Press the "1" keypad. "ON. Press (1) for Off" will scroll in the display. Sabbath Mode can be activated for baking.

3. Press START to save the setting.

4. Press CANCEL to exit and display the time of day. NOTE: To disable the Sabbath Mode, repeat steps 1 - 4 to

change the status from "SABBATH ON" to "SABBATH OFF."

baking or press CANCEL to turn off the range.

Preheating

When beginning a Bake, Convect Bake or Convect Roast cycle, the oven will begin preheating after Start is pressed. The oven will take approximately 12-15 minutes to reach 350°F (177°C) with all of the oven racks provided with your oven inside the oven cavity. Higher temperatures will take longer to preheat. The preheat cycle rapidly increases the oven temperature. The actual oven temperature will go above your set temperature to offset the heat lost when your oven door is opened to insert food. This ensures that when you place your food in the oven, the oven will begin at the proper temperature. Insert your food when the preheat tone sounds. Do not open the door during preheat before the tone sounds.

Rapid Preheat Rapid Preheat can be used to shorten the preheating time. Only

one standard flat oven rack should be in the oven during Rapid Preheat. Extra racks should be removed prior to starting Rapid

Preheat. Press RAPID PREHEAT and follow the oven control prompts, or, if preheating has already started, simply press RAPID

PREHEAT. The preheating cycle should be completed before placing food in the oven. When the Rapid Preheat cycle is complete, the oven starts a normal Bake cycle.

IMPORTANT: Rapid Preheat should be used only for one-rack baking.

Oven Temperature While in use, the oven elements will cycle on and off as needed to

maintain a consistent temperature, but they may run slightly hot or cool at any point in time due to this cycling. Opening the oven door

while in use will release the hot air and cool the oven which could impact the cooking time and performance. It is recommended to

use the oven light to monitor cooking progress. NOTE: On models with convection, the convection fan may run in

the non-convection bake mode to improve oven performance.

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.

FrozenBake TM Technology

FrozenBake TM Technology can be used to cook prepackaged frozen food without needing to preheat the oven and without

overbrowning the food. There are 4 preprogrammed food options to choose from: Pizza, Lasagna, Nuggets/Fries, and Pie.

FrozenBake TM Technology should only be used for these foods. Cook only 1 package at a time when using FrozenBake TM

Technology. Use the recommended temperature and maximum recommended time from the packaging.

A beep will alert you to check the food's doneness before the cook time is completed and again at the end of the cook time. The display will prompt you to add to the cook time or end the cycle.

Convection Cooking

In a convection oven, the fan-circulated hot air continually distributes heat more evenly than the natural movement of air in a

standard thermal oven. This movement of hot air helps maintain a consistent temperature throughout the oven, cooking foods more

evenly, crisping surfaces while sealing in moisture and yielding crustier breads.

During convection baking or roasting, the bake, broil and convection elements cycle on and off in intervals while the fan circulates the hot air. During convection broiling, the broil and convection elements cycle on and off.

If the oven door is opened during convection cooking, the fan will turn off immediately. It will come back on when the oven door is

closed. With convection cooking, most foods can be cooked at a lower

temperature and/or a shorter cooking time than in a standard thermal oven. Use the following chart as a guide.

Convection Mode Time/Temp. Guidelines Convection Bake 25°F (15°C) lower temperature,

Self-Cleaning

Technology

AquaLift ®Technology is an innovative cleaning solution that utilizes heat and water to release baked-on spills from the oven in less than 1 hour. This new cleaning technology is a low-heat, odor-free alternative to traditional self-cleaning options.

Allow the oven to cool to room temperature before using the Clean cycle. If your oven cavity is above 200°F (93°C), "Oven Cooling" will appear in the display, and the Clean cycle will not be activated until the oven cavity cools down.

To Clean:

1. Remove all racks and accessories from the oven cavity and wipe excess soil. Use a plastic scraper to remove easily-

removed soils.

Remove the residual water and loosened soils with a sponge or cloth immediately after the Clean cycle is complete. Much of the initial 2 cups (16 oz [500 mL]) of water will remain in the oven after the cycle is completed. If additional soils remain,

leave a small amount of water in the oven bottom to assist with the cleaning.

If any soils remain, remove them with a non-scratch scrubbing sponge or plastic scraper. Additional Clean cycles may be run to help remove the stubborn soils.

IMPORTANT: Do not use oven cleaners. The use of chemicals, including commercial oven cleaners or metal

scouring pads, may cause permanent damage to the porcelain surface of the oven interior.

Pour 2 cups (16 oz [500 mL]) of distilled or filtered water onto the bottom of the empty oven and close the oven door.

IMPORTANT: Do not use chemicals or other additives with the water. Do not open the oven door during the Clean cycle. The

water on the oven bottom is hot.

3. Press AQUALIFT SELF CLEAN and then START on the oven control panel.

4. Allow 40 minutes for cleaning and cool down. A beep will sound when the Clean cycle is complete.

5. Press CANCEL at the end of the cycle. Cancel may be pressed at any time to stop the Clean cycle.

NOTES:

• The range should be level to ensure that the entire surface of the bottom of the oven cavity is covered by water at the beginning of the Clean cycle.

• For best results, use distilled or filtered water. Tap water may leave mineral deposits on the oven bottom.

• Before removing the residual water and loosened soils at the end of the Clean cycle, insert a cloth or paper towel between the lower edge of the oven door and the front frame to keep water from spilling onto the front of the range and the floor.

• Soil baked on through several cooking cycles will be more difficult to remove with the Clean cycle.

• Nonabrasive scrub sponges or eraser style cleaning pads (without cleaners) can be effective for cleaning the oven cavity walls, oven door and oven bottom for difficult soils. For best results, moisten the pads and sponges before use.

• Run an additional Clean cycle for stubborn soils.

• affresh ®Kitchen Appliance Cleaner and affresh ®Cooktop Cleaner may be used to clean the oven bottom, walls and door when the oven has finished the cycle and returned to room temperature. If affresh ®Cooktop Cleaner is used, it is recommended to wipe out the cavity with distilled water as

well. Refer to the "Accessories" section for information on ordering.

• Additional AquaLift ®Technology Cleaning Kits may be obtained by ordering Part Number W10423113RP. See the

"Accessories" section for more information.
