About Your Appliance

To prevent potential hazard to the user and damage to the

appliance, do not use appliance as a space heater to heat

or warm a room. Also, do not use the oven as a storage

area for food or cooking utensils.

Do not obstruct the flow of air by blocking the oven vent.

The oven vent is located at the rear of the cooking

surface.

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 any 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 opening and surface

near this opening, oven door, window of oven door.

Do not touch a hot oven light bulb with a damp cloth as

the bulb could break. Should the bulb break, disconnect

power to the appliance before removing bulb to avoid

electrical shock.

2

NEVER use aluminum foil to cover an oven rack or oven

bottom. Misuse could result in risk of electric shock, fire, or

damage to the appliance. Use foil only as directed in this

guide.

Do not use the cooktop or ovens as a storage area for food

or cooking utensils.

Never heat an unopened food container in the oven.

Pressure build-up may cause container to burst resulting in

serious personal injury or damage to the appliance.

Use dry, sturdy potholders. Damp potholders may cause

burns from steam. Dish towels or other substitutes should

never be used as potholders because they can trail across

hot elements and ignite or get caught on appliance parts.

Wear proper apparel. Loose fitting or long hanging-sleeved

apparel should not be worn while cooking. Clothing may

ignite and cause burns if garment comes in contact with

heating elements.

Always place oven racks in the desired positions while oven

is cool. Slide oven rack out to add or remove food, using

dry, sturdy potholders. Always avoid reaching into the oven

to add or remove food. If a rack must be moved while hot,

use a dry potholder. Do not let potholder contact hot

element in oven.

Use racks only in the oven in which they were shipped/

purchased.

Use care when opening the oven door. Let hot air or steam

escape before removing or replacing food.

PREPARED FOOD WARNING: Follow food manufacturer's

instructions. If a plastic frozen food container and/or its

cover distorts, warps, or is otherwise damaged during

cooking, immediately discard the food and its container.

The food could be contaminated.

Do not allow aluminum foil or meat probe to contact

heating element.

Always turn off all controls when cooking is completed.

Utensil Safety

Follow the manufacturer's directions when using oven

cooking bags.

This appliance has been tested for safe performance using

conventional cookware. Do not use any devices or accesso-

ries that are not specifically recommended in this guide. Do

not use element covers, stove top grills or add-on oven

convection systems. The use of devices or accessories that

are not expressly recommended in this guide can create

importantSurety

serious safety hazards, result in performance problems,

and reduce the life of the components of the appliance.

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.

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

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 manual. Improper installation of these

liners may result in a risk of electric shock or fire.

Deep Fat Fryers

Do not clean door gasket. The door gasket isessential 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.

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.

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.

When flaming foods under the hood, turn the fan on.

Surface Controls

Use to turn on the surface elements. An infinitechoice of

heat settings isavailable from Low to High. The knobs can

be set on or between any of the settings.

Setting the Controls

1. Place pan on surface element.

2. Push in and turn the knob in either direction to the desired

heat setting.

. The control panel is marked to identify O O

which element the knob controls. For Front • O

example, the graphic at right

indicates left front element.

.

There isan element indicator light on the control panel.

When any surface control knob isturned on, the light will

turn on.The light will turn offwhen all the surface ele-

ments are turned off.

4. Aftercooking, turn knob to OFF. Remove pan.

Suggested Heat Settings

The size and type of cookware, type and amount of food

being heated, and wattage of individual elements will

determine where to set the knob for cooking

operations. Some elements have a predetermined simmer and

melt setting that will require only minor adjustment up or

down depending on the food being prepared. The other

elements have settings printed around the knobs that are also

unique to those elements. Adjust the heat settings to the

numbers that give the desired cooking results. The following

descriptions will aid in choosing the settings that will give

optimum results.

Hold or Warm: Food maintains atemperature above 140°F

without continuing to cook. Food is initially hot and then heat

is reduced. Never use a hold or warm setting to reheat cold

food.

Simmer: Foodforms bubbles that barely break the

surface. Foods are between 185°Fand 200°F.A simmer

setting can also be used to steam or poach foods or continue

cooking covered foods.

Slow Boil: Food forms bubbles at a moderate pace. A slow

boil setting can also be used for most frying and for maintain-

ing the cooking of large amounts of liquids.

Boil: Liquid forms bubbles at a rapid pace. A fast boil setting

can also be used to brown meat, stir fry, saute, and heat oil

for frying before turning to a lower setting. The highest 3 or 4

settings on the knob are used for these cooking

operations. The highest setting is always used to bring water

to a boil. Some elements offer an even higher speed for

boiling liquids.

a clean cycle.

1. Close the oven door.

2. Move door lock lever right to the locked position.

J

The self-clean cycle uses above-normal cooking temperatures

to automatically clean the oven interior.

The oven should be cleaned regularly bywiping up spillovers

to prevent excessive smoke and flare-ups. Do not allow a

heavy build-up of soil to accumulate in the oven.

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 isthe seal around the oven door and

window).

4. To prevent damage, do not clean or rub the gasket around

the oven door. The gasket isdesigned to seal in heat

during the clean cycle.

lever to the left to unlock.

Some soil may leave a light gray, powdery ash. Remove

itwith a damp cloth. If soil remains after wiping, that means

the clean cycle was not long enough. The soil will be

removed 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 isnormal 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

performance.

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.
