RANGE SAFETY

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

SAVE THESE 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 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.

AquaLift

Self-Cleaning 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 exclusive 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 in traditional self-cleaning

methods, just wipe out the remaining water and loose debris. See

the “Self-Cleaning Cycle” section for more detailed instructions.

For additional information, frequently asked questions, and videos

on using AquaLift

Self-Cleaning Technology, visit our website at

http://whirlpoolcorp.com/aqualift.

Surface Temperatures

When the range is in use, all range surfaces may become hot,

such as the knobs and oven door.

Baking Drawer (On Some Models)

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.

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 to 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.

Ceramic Glass Cooktop Cleaning

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.

2. Apply a few dime-sized drops of affresh

Cooktop Cleaner

to the affected areas.

■ 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 through 3 as necessary for stubborn

or burned-on stains.

The Complete Cooktop Cleaner Kit is available for order and

includes the following:

■ Cooktop Scraper

■ affresh

Cooktop Cleaner

■ Blue Cooktop Cleaning Pads

See the “Accessories” section for part numbers and information

on ordering.

Oven Temperature Offset Control

IMPORTANT: Do not use a thermometer to measure oven

temperature. Elements will cycle on and off as needed to provide

consistent temperature but may run slightly hot or cool at any

point in time due to this cycling. Most thermometers are slow

to react to temperature change and will not provide an accurate

reading due to this cycling.

The oven provides accurate temperatures; however, it may cook

faster or slower than your previous oven, so the temperature can

be adjusted to personalize it for your cooking needs. It can be

changed to Fahrenheit or Celsius.

Ceramic Glass

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.

Turn off all controls when done cooking.

Failure to do so can result in death or fire.

Off

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

may become hot.

COOKTOP

■ 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

" (1.3 cm)

outside the area.

■ 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.

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 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

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.

NOTE: Settings are marked on the control knob.

Rapid Boil Element (Right Front Element)

The Rapid Boil cooking element offers additional cooking ﬂexibility.

The Rapid Boil cooking element can be used to boil liquids faster.

The lowest melt setting can be used to prepare sauces, to brown

or sauté foods and to keep foods at a low temperature. Use

cookware appropriate in size for the Rapid Boil cooking element.

NOTE: Settings are marked on the control knob.

Melt Element (Left Rear Element)

The Melt cooking element offers ﬂexibility 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. To reduce the power

setting, turn the knob clockwise. The Melt setting is designed for

delicate foods, that require low heat, such as when melting

chocolate or holding sauces. Use cookware appropriate in size

for the Melt cooking element.

Downdraft Ventilation System

The built-in downdraft ventilation system removes cooking vapors,

odors, and smoke from foods prepared on the cooktop.

IMPORTANT: For optimal performance, operate the downdraft

ventilation system with the ﬁlter properly installed.

To avoid the buildup of grease, the ﬁlter should be cleaned often.

For more information on proper ﬁlter placement and cleaning, see

“Downdraft Ventilation System” in the “General Cleaning” section.

Cookware

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. 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 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.

Check for 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.

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.

■ May leave aluminum residues, which may

be diminished if cleaned immediately after

cooking.

Cast iron

■ Heats slowly and evenly.

■ Good for browning and frying.

■ Maintains heat for slow cooking.

■ Rough edges or burrs may scratch the

cooktop.

Ceramic or

ceramic glass

■ Follow manufacturer’s instructions.

■ Heats slowly, but unevenly.

■ Ideal results on low to medium heat

settings.

■ May scratch the cooktop.

■ Heats very quickly and evenly.

■ May leave copper residues, which may be

diminished if cleaned immediately after

cooking.

■ Can leave a permanent stain or bond to the

cooktop if overheated.

Earthenware

■ Follow manufacturer’s instructions.

■ Use on low heat settings.

■ May scratch the cooktop.

Porcelain

enamel-on-

steel or cast

iron

■ See stainless steel or cast iron.

■ Porcelain enamel bakeware without the

metal base may bond to the cooktop if

overheated.

Stainless

steel

■ Heats quickly, but unevenly.

■ A core or base of aluminum or copper on

stainless steel provides even heating.

Use ﬂat-bottomed cookware for best cooking results and energy

efﬁciency. The cookware should be about the same size as the

cooking area outlined on the cooktop. Cookware should not

extend more than

" (1.3 cm) outside the area.

Home Canning

Canning can be performed on a glass smoothtop 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

" (1.3 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.

Odors and smoke are normal when the oven is used the ﬁrst few

times or when it is heavily soiled.

IMPORTANT: The health of some birds is extremely sensitive to

the fumes given off by the oven. Exposure to the fumes may result

in death to certain birds. Always move birds to another closed and

well-ventilated room.

Aluminum Foil

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.

Positioning Racks and Bakeware

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.

Racks

■ Position racks before turning on the oven.

■ Do not position racks with bakeware on them.

■ Make sure racks are level.

To position a rack, pull it out to the stop position, raise the front

edge, and then lift out. Use the following illustration and charts

as guides.

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 2

to 3

minutes. Side 2 should cook for

approximately 4 to 5 minutes. Expect a moderate degree of smoke

when broiling.

* 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.

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.

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 rack positions 2 and 7 and a Max

Capacity Oven Rack in rack position 5.

Baking Cookies and Layer Cakes on 2 Racks

Baking Layer Cakes

For best results when baking cakes on 2 racks, use the Bake

function, a ﬂat rack in rack position 3, and a roll-out rack in

rack position 5. Place the cakes on the racks as shown. Keep

at least 3" (7.6 cm) of space between the front of the racks and

the front cakes.
