Cleaning Safety
Clean cooktop with caution. Turn off all controls and wait
for appliance parts to cool before touching or cleaning.
Clean with caution. Use care to avoid steam burns if a wet
sponge or cloth is used to wipe spills on a hot surface.
Some cleaners can produce noxious fumes if applied to a
hot surface.
Clean only parts listed in this guide.
Self-Clean Oven
CAUTION
Before self-cleaning the oven, remove the oven
racks, broiler pan, food and any other utensils. Wipe
spillovers to prevent excessive smoke and flare-ups.
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 or oven liners of any kind in or
around any part of the self-clean oven.
Important Safety Notice
and Warning
The California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement
Act of 1986 (Proposition 65) requires the Governor of
California to publish a list of substances known to the State
of California to cause cancer or reproductive harm, and
requires businesses to warn customers of potential expo-
sures to such substances.
Users of this appliance are hereby warned that when the
oven is engaged in the self-clean cycle, there may be some
low-level exposure to some of the listed substances, includ-
ing carbon monoxide. Exposure to these substances can be
minimized by properly venting the oven to the outdoors by
opening the windows and/or door in the room where the
appliance is located during the self-clean cycle.
IMPORTANT NOTICE REGARDING PET BIRDS: Never
keep pet birds in the kitchen or in rooms where the fumes
from the kitchen could reach. Birds have a very sensitive
respiratory system. Fumes released during an oven self-
cleaning cycle may be harmful or fatal to birds. Fumes
released due to overheated cooking oil, fat, margarine and
overheated non-stick cookware may be equally harmful.
If pan is smaller than element, a portion of the element will
be exposed to direct contact and could ignite clothing or
potholder.
Only certain types of glass, glass/ceramic, ceramic, earth-
enware, or other glazed utensils are suitable for cooktop or
oven service without breaking due to the sudden change
in temperature. Follow utensil manufacturer’s instructions
when using glass.
Turn pan handle toward center of cooktop, not out into the
room or over another surface element. This reduces the
risk of burns, ignition of flammable materials, or spillage if
pan is accidently bumped or reached by small children.
Cooktop
NEVER leave surface units unattended especially when
using high heat. An unattended boilover could cause
smoking and a greasy spillover can cause a fire.
This appliance is equipped with different size surface
elements. Select pans with flat bottoms large enough to
cover element. Fitting pan size to element will improve
cooking efficiency.
Coil Elements
To prevent damage to removable heating elements, do
not immerse, soak or clean in a dishwasher or self-clean
oven. A damaged element could short resulting in a fire
or shock hazard.
Make sure drip bowls are in place as absence of these
bowls during cooking could damage wiring.
Protective Liners: Do not use aluminum foil to line
surface unit drip bowls or oven bottoms, except as
suggested in the guide. Improper installation of these
liners may result in a risk of electric shock or fire.
Deep Fat Fryers
Use extreme caution when moving the grease pan or
disposing of hot grease. Allow grease to cool before
attempting to move pan.
Ventilating Hoods
Clean range hood and filters frequently to prevent grease
or other flammable materials from accumulating on hood
or filter and to avoid grease fires.
When flaming foods under the hood, turn the fan on.

turn on. The light will turn off when all the surface ele-
ments are turned off.
4. After cooking, turn knob to OFF. Remove pan.
Medium (5-7): Use to
maintain slow boil for
large amounts of liquids
and for most frying
operations.
BEFORE COOKING
Always place a pan on the surface unit before you turn it
on. To prevent damage to range, never operate surface
unit without a pan in place.
NEVER use the cooktop as a storage area for food or
cookware.
DURING COOKING
Be sure you know which knob controls which surface
unit. Make sure you turned on the correct surface unit.
Begin cooking on a higher heat setting then reduce to a
lower setting to complete the operation. Never use a
high heat setting for extended cooking.
NEVER allow a pan to boil dry. This could damage the
pan and the appliance.
NEVER touch cooktop until it has cooled. Expect some
parts of the cooktop, especially around the surface units,
to become warm or hot during cooking. Use potholders
to protect hands.
CAUTION
Suggested Heat Settings
The size, type of cookware and cooking operation will affect the
heat setting.
AFTER COOKING
Make sure surface unit is turned off.
Clean up messy spills as soon as possible.
OTHER TIPS
If cabinet storage is provided directly above cooking
surface, limit it to items that are infrequently used and can
be safely stored in an area subjected to heat. Tempera-
tures may be unsafe for items such as volatile liquids,
cleaners or aerosol sprays.
NEVER leave any items, especially plastic items, on the
cooktop. The hot air from the vent may ignite flammable
items, melt or soften plastics, or increase pressure in
closed containers causing them to burst.
NEVER allow aluminum foil, meat probes or any other
metal object, other than a pan on a surface element, to
contact heating elements.
Low (2): Use to keep
foods warm and melt
chocolate and butter.
High (10): Use to bring
liquid to a boil. Always
reduce setting to a lower
heat when liquids begin to
boil or foods begin to cook.
Med. Low (3-4):
Use to continue
cooking covered
foods or steam
foods.
Med. High (8-9): Use
to brown meat, heat oil
for deep fat frying or
sauteing. Maintain fast
boil for large amounts
of liquids.
Surface Cooking

Coil Element Surface
Coil Elements
When an element is on, it will cycle on and off to maintain the
heat setting.
Coil elements are self-cleaning. Do not immerse in water.
To remove: When cool, raise ele-
ment. Carefully pull out and away
from receptacle.
To replace: Insert element ter-
minals into receptacle. Guide the
element into place. Press down on
the outer edge of element until it
sits level on drip bowl.
Drip Bowls
The drip bowls under each surface element catch boilovers and
must always be used. Absence of drip bowls during cooking may
damage wiring.
To prevent the risk of electric shock or fire, never line drip bowls
with aluminum foil.
Drip bowls will discolor (blue/gold stains) or craze over time if
overheated. This discoloration or crazing is permanent. This will
not affect cooking performance.
Notes:
Clean cooktop after each use.
Wipe acidic or sugary spills as soon as the cooktop
has cooled as these spills may discolor or etch the
porcelain.
To protect drip bowl finish:
To lessen discoloration and crazing, avoid using high
heat for long periods.
Do not use oversized cookware. Pans should not
extend more than 1-2 inches beyond the element.
When home canning or cooking with big pots, use
the Canning Element (Model CE1). Contact your
Maytag dealer for details or call 1-877-232-6771 USA
or 1-800-688-8408 Canada to order.

Sabbath Mode can be turned on at any time with or
without the oven on.
Sabbath Mode cannot be turned on if the touchpads are
locked out or when the door is locked.
If the oven is baking when Sabbath Mode is set, BAKE
will go out at the end of the baking cycle. There will be
no audible beeps.
If the oven light is desired while in Sabbath Mode, it
must be turned on before the Sabbath Mode is started.
Automatic Shut-Off/

Adjusting the Oven Temperature
Oven temperatures are carefully tested for accuracy at the
factory. It is normal to notice some baking or browning
differences between a new oven and an old one. As ranges
get older, the oven temperature can shift.
You may adjust the oven temperature if you think the oven is
not baking or browning correctly. To decide how much to
change the temperature, set the temperature 25° higher or
lower than your recipe recommends, then bake. The results
of the “test” should give you an idea of how much to adjust
the temperature.
To adjust the oven temperature:
1. Press Bake.
2. Enter 550° by pressing the More+ pad.
3. Press and hold the Bake pad for several
seconds or until 0° appears in the display.
If the oven temperature was previously adjusted, the
change will be displayed. For example, if the oven tem-
perature was reduced by 15° the display will show “-15°”.
4. Press the More+ or Less- pad to adjust the temperature.
Each time a pad is pressed, the temperature changes by
5°. The oven temperature can be increased or decreased
by 5° to 35°.
5. The time of day will automatically reappear in the display.
You do not need to readjust the oven temperature if there
is a power failure or interruption. Broiling and cleaning
temperatures cannot be adjusted.
When the Sabbath Mode is started, no preheat beep will
sound.
All prompts, messages and beeps are deactivated when
Sabbath Mode is active.
The automatic door lock does not operate during the
Sabbath Mode.
Pressing CANCEL will cancel a Bake cycle, however the
control will stay in the Sabbath Mode.
If power fails, the oven will power up in Sabbath Mode with
72 hours remaining and no cycle active.

Oven Light
The oven light automatically comes on when the
door is opened. When the door is closed, press the
Oven Light switch to turn the oven light on and off.
Oven Bottom
Protect oven bottom against spillovers, especially acidic or
sugary spills, as they may discolor the porcelain enamel. Use
the correct pan size to avoid spillovers and boilovers. Do not
place utensils or aluminum foil directly on the oven
bottom.
Oven Vent
When the oven is in use the area near the vent may become
hot enough to cause burns. Never block the vent opening.
The oven vent is located below the backguard vent
shield on your range.
CAUTION
Oven Racks
Do not attempt to change the rack position when the oven
is hot.
Do not use the oven for storing food or cookware.
The oven has two racks. All racks are designed with a lock-
stop edge.
To remove:
1. Pull rack straight out until it
stops at the lock-stop
position.
2. Lift up on the front of the
rack and pull out.
To replace:
1. Place rack on the rack supports in the oven.
2. Tilt the front end up slightly. Slide rack back until it clears
the lock-stop position.
3. Lower front and slide back into the oven.
Never cover an entire rack with aluminum foil or place
foil on the oven bottom. Baking results will be affected
and damage may occur to the oven bottom.

Self-Clean Oven
CAUTION
It is normal for parts of the range to become hot during a
self-clean cycle.
To prevent damage to oven door, do not attempt to open
the door when LOCK is displayed.
Avoid touching cooktop, door, window or oven vent area
during a clean cycle.
Do not use commercial oven cleaners on the oven finish
or around any part of the oven. They will damage the
finish or parts.
The self-clean cycle uses above-normal cooking temperatures
to automatically clean the oven interior.
The oven should be cleaned regularly by wiping up spillovers
to prevent excessive smoke and flare-ups. Do not allow a
heavy build-up of soil to accumulate in the oven.
During the cleaning process, the kitchen should be well
ventilated to get rid of normal odors associated with cleaning.
Before Self-Cleaning
1. Turn off the oven light before cleaning. The light may burn
out during the clean cycle.
2. Remove all pans and oven racks from the oven. The oven
racks will discolor and may not slide easily after a self-
clean cycle if they are not removed.
3. Clean oven frame, door frame, area
outside of gasket, and around the
opening in the door gasket with a
nonabrasive cleaner such as Bon
Ami* or detergent and water. The
self-cleaning process does not
clean these areas. They should be
cleaned to prevent soil from baking on during the clean
cycle. (The gasket is the seal around the oven door and
window).
4. To prevent damage, do not clean or rub the gasket around
the oven door. The gasket is designed to seal in heat
during the clean cycle.
5. Wipe up excess grease or spillovers from the oven bottom.
This prevents excessive smoking, flare-ups or flaming
during the clean cycle.
6. Wipe up sugary and acidic spillovers such as sweet
potatoes, tomato, or milk-based sauces. Porcelain enamel
is acid-resistant, not acid-proof. The porcelain finish may
discolor if acidic spills are not wiped up before a self-clean
cycle.
Care & Cleaning

CL-M (Medium Soil, 3 hours) is displayed.
If the door is not closed, beeps will sound and
“door” will display. If the door is not closed
within 45 seconds, the self-cleaning operation will be
canceled and the display will return to the time of day.
4. Press the More+ or Less- pad to scroll through the self-
cleaning settings.
CL-H (Heavy Soil, 4 hours)
CL-M (Medium soil, 3 hours)
CL-L (Light Soil, 2 hours)
Choosing the soil level of the oven automatically programs
the self-cleaning time.
5. After four seconds, the oven will start cleaning.
The cleaning time will start counting down in the display.
LOCK will appear in the display.
CLEAN will appear in the display.

Notes:
If the oven door is left open, “door” will flash in the
display and a signal will beep until the door is closed
and the Clean pad is pressed again.
If more than five seconds elapse between pressing the
Clean pad and the More+ or Less- pad, the program
will automatically return to the previous display.
The oven door will be damaged if the oven door is
forced to open when LOCK is still displayed.
During the Self-Clean Cycle
When LOCK shows in the display, the door cannot be opened.
To prevent damage to the door, do not force the door open
when LOCK is displayed.
Smoke and Smells
You may see some smoke and smell an odor the first few
times the oven is cleaned. This is normal and will lessen in
time.
Smoke may also occur if the oven is heavily soiled or if a pan
was left in the oven.
Sounds
As the oven heats, you may hear sounds of metal parts
expanding and contracting. This is normal and will not
damage the oven.
After Self-Cleaning
About one hour after the end of the self-clean cycle, LOCK
will turn off. The door can then be opened.
Some soil may leave a light gray, powdery ash. Remove
it with a damp cloth. If soil remains after wiping, that means
the clean cycle was not long enough. The soil will be re-
moved during the next clean cycle.
If oven racks were left in the oven and do not slide
smoothly after a clean cycle, wipe racks and rack supports
with a small amount of vegetable oil to make them easier to
move.
Fine lines may appear in the porcelain because it went
through heating and cooling. This is normal and will not
affect performance.
A white discoloration may appear after cleaning if acidic
or sugary foods were not wiped up before the self-clean
cycle. This discoloration is normal and will not affect perfor-
mance.
Care & Cleaning
5. Press the More+ or Less- pad to scroll through the self-
cleaning settings.
CL-H (Heavy Soil, 4 hours)
CL-M (Medium soil, 3 hours)
