About Your Appliance

Cooking Safety

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.

CAUTION

NEVER use an appliance as a step to reach cabinets

above. Misuse of appliance door, such as stepping,

leaning or sitting on the door, may result in possible

tipping of the appliance, breakage of door, and serious

injuries.

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.

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, surface near this opening,

oven door, and 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.

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.

Child Safety

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 manual. Do

not use stove top grills or add-on oven convection systems.

The use of devices or accessories that are not expressly

recommended in this manual can create serious safety

hazards, result in performance problems, and reduce the life

of the components of this appliance.

Be sure utensil is large enough to properly contain food and

avoid boilovers. Pan size is particularly important in deep fat

frying. Be sure pan will accommodate the volume of food

that is to be added as well as the bubble action of fat.

Important Safety Instructions

or cloth is used to wipe spills on a hot surface. Some clean-

ers 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.

It is normal for the cooktop of the range to become hot

during a self-clean cycle. Therefore, touching the cooktop

during a clean cycle should be avoided.

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 poten-

tial exposures 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.

Never let a pan boil dry as this could damage the utensil

and 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,

earthenware, 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 ele-

ments. Select pans with flat bottoms large enough to cover

element. Fitting pan size to element will improve cooking

efficiency.

GLASS-CERAMIC SURFACE: NEVER 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.

Deep Fat Fryers

Use extreme caution when moving the grease pan or dispos-

ing 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.

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

Surface Cooking

Surface Controls

Use to turn on the surface elements. An infinite choice of

heat settings is available 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

which element the knob controls. For

example, the graphic at right indicates left front element.

3. There is an element indicator light on the control panel.

When any surface control knob is turned on, the light will

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.

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. For

information on cookware and other factors affecting heat

settings, refer to Cookware Recommendations on page 7. The

following descriptions will aid in choosing the settings that

will give optimum results.

Hold or Warm: Food maintains a temperature 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: Food forms bubbles that barely break the

surface. Foods are between 185°F and 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

maintaining 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, sauté, 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.

Dual Element (select models)

The cooking surface has a dual element

located at the left front of the

smoothtop. This allows you to change

the size of the element.

The small element is operated on the left

side of the knob control. To operate the

entire element, use the right side of the knob control. The

control for both element sizes can be set anywhere between

Low and High.

Front

Flex-Choice

Element (select models)

The Flex-Choice

element is a fully functioning

element that provides an ultra low Melt

heat setting for melting chocolate and

butter. It is located in the left rear position

The Melt setting is located between

2 and OFF. Heat settings outside of

this area function as a normal element,

with 2 (Low) to High settings.

Note: When using the normal settings for preparing foods,

it may take a few minutes for the cooking area to cool to

the Melt heat setting.

Notes:

• Never warm food for longer than one hour (eggs for 30

minutes), as food quality may deteriorate.

• Do not heat cold food on the Warming Center.

• Heat settings will vary depending on type and amount of

food. Always hold food at proper food temperatures. USDA

recommends food temperatures between 140°-170° F.

Warming Center

Use the Warming Center to keep hot cooked foods warm,

such as vegetables and gravies.

Setting the Control:

1. Push in and turn the knob. Warming

temperatures are approximate and are

indicated on the control as Low, 2-10

and High. However, the control can be

set to any position between Low and

High.

2. When done, turn the control to OFF and

remove food. The Hot Surface indicator light will go off

when the Warming Center surface has cooled.

Smoothtop Surface Notes:

• Cooktop may emit light smoke and odor the first few

times the cooktop is used. This is normal.

• Smoothtop cooktops retain heat for a period of time

after the element is turned off. Turn the elements off

a few minutes before food is completely cooked and use

the retained heat to complete cooking. When the hot

surface light turns off, the cooking area will be cool

enough to touch. Because of the way they retain heat, the

smoothtop elements will not respond to changes in

settings as quickly as coil elements.

• In the event of a potential boilover, remove the pan from

the cooking surface.

• Never attempt to lift the cooktop.

• The smoothtop surface may appear discolored when it is

hot. This is normal and will disappear when the surface

cools.

Smoothtop Surface

Cooking Areas

The cooking areas on your range are identified by permanent

circles on the smoothtop surface. For most efficient cooking,

fit the pan size to the element size.

Pans should not extend more than 1-inch beyond the

cooking area.

Warming Center Notes:

• Use only cookware and dishes recommended as safe for

oven and cooktop use.

• Always use oven mitts when removing food from the

Warming Center as utensils will be hot.

• All foods should be covered with a lid or aluminum foil to

maintain food quality.

• When warming pastries and breads the cover should have

an opening to allow moisture to escape.

• Do not use plastic wrap to cover foods. Plastic may melt

on to the surface and be very difficult to clean.

• Be very careful not to allow aluminum foil to touch the

cooktop. If foil melts, do not use the cooktop. Call an

authorized Maytag servicer.

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

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.

• NEVER store heavy items above the cooktop that could fall

and damage it.

Tips to Protect the

Smoothtop Surface

Cleaning (see page 19 for more information)

• Before first use, clean the cooktop.

• Clean your cooktop daily or after each use. This will keep

your cooktop looking good and can prevent damage.

• If a spillover occurs while cooking, immediately clean the

spill from the cooking area while it is hot to prevent a tough

cleaning chore later. Using extreme care, wipe spill with a

clean dry towel.

• Do not allow spills to remain on the cooking area or the

cooktop trim for a long period of time.

• Never use abrasive cleansing powders or scouring pads

which will scratch the cooktop.

• Never use chlorine bleach, ammonia or other cleansers not

specifically recommended for use on glass-ceramic.

Hot Surface Light

The Hot Surface indicator light is located on

the control panel. The light will be illuminated

when any cooking area is hot. It will remain

on, even after the control is turned off, until the area has

cooled.

To Prevent Marks and Scratches

• Do not use glass pans. They may scratch the surface.

• Never place a trivet or wok ring between the surface and

pan. These items can mark or etch the top.

• Do not slide aluminum pans across a hot surface. The pans

may leave marks which need to be removed promptly. (See

Cleaning, page 19.)

• Make sure the surface and the pan bottom are clean before

turning on to prevent scratches.

• To prevent scratching or damage to the glass-ceramic top,

do not leave sugar, salt or fats on the cooking area. Wipe

the cooktop surface with a clean cloth or paper towel

before using.

• Never slide heavy metal pans across the surface since

these may scratch.

To Prevent Stains

• Never use a soiled dish cloth or sponge to clean the

cooktop surface. A film will remain which may cause stains

on the cooking surface after the area is heated.

• Continuously cooking on a soiled surface may/will result in

a permanent stain.

To Prevent Other Damage

• Do not allow plastic, sugar or foods with high sugar content

to melt onto the hot cooktop. Should this happen, clean

immediately. (See Cleaning, page 19.)

• Never let a pan boil dry as this will damage the surface and

pan.

• Never use cooktop as a work surface or cutting board.

• Never cook food directly on the surface.

• Do not use a small pan on a large element. Not only does

this waste energy, but it can also result in spillovers burning

onto the cooking area which requires extra cleaning.

• Do not use non-flat specialty items that are oversized or

uneven such as round bottom woks, rippled bottom and/or

oversized canners and griddles.

• Do not use foil or foil-type containers. Foil may melt onto

the glass. If metal melts on the cooktop, do not use. Call an

authorized servicer.

Heavy handles that tilt the pan.

Tight-fitting lids. Loose-fitting lids.

Flat bottom woks. Woks with a ring-stand bottom.

Using the right cookware can prevent many problems, such

as food taking longer to cook or achieving inconsistent

results. Proper pans will reduce cooking times, use less

energy, and cook food more evenly.

Flat Pan Tests

See if your pans are flat.

The Ruler Test:

1. Place a ruler across the bottom of the pan.

2. Hold it up to the light.

3. Little or no light should be visible under the ruler.

The Bubble Test:

1. Put 1 inch of water in the pan. Place on cooktop and turn

control to High.

2. Watch the formation of the bubbles as the water heats.

Uniform bubbles mean good performance, and uneven

bubbles indicate hot spots and uneven cooking.

Canning and Oversize

Cookware

All canners and large pots must have flat bottoms and

must be made from heavy-gauge materials. This is critical

on smoothtop surfaces. The base must not be more than

1 inch larger than the element.

When canners and pots do not meet these standards, cooking

times may be longer, and cooktops may be damaged.

Some canners are designed with smaller bases for use on

smoothtop surfaces.

When canning, use the High heat setting only until the

water comes to a boil or pressure is reached in the canner.

Reduce to the lowest heat setting that maintains the boil or

pressure. If the heat is not turned down, the cooktop may be

damaged.

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.

3. After four seconds, the oven will start.

• “BROIL” will remain lit.

Broil Notes:

• For best results when broiling, use a pan designed for

broiling.

• Expect broil times to increase and browning to be

slightly lighter if appliance is installed on a 208-volt

circuit.

• HI is used for most broiling. Use LO broil when broiling

longer cooking foods. The lower temperature allows

food to cook to the well done stage without excessive

browning.

• Broil times may be longer when the lower broiling

temperature is selected.

• Food should be turned halfway through broiling time.

Oven Cooking

Create-A-Space

Half Rack

Select range models are equipped

with a convertible half rack. The left

side of the rack can be removed

to accommodate a large roaster

on the lower rack. The right side

of the rack is still available to

hold a casserole dish.

Notes:

• The removable section of the rack can be used as a

roasting rack in the broiling pan. Do not use the top

insert when using the rack in the broiling pan.

• The removable section of the rack can be used as a

cooling rack or trivet.

• Make sure oven is cool before removing or reinstalling

the half rack.

• Do not use cookware that extends beyond edge of rack.

• For best results, allow two inches between the pan

placed on the rack and the oven side wall.

• Use caution when removing items from the half rack to

avoid burns.

• Carefully remove items from the lower rack to avoid

disturbing the half rack.

EasyRack

(select models)

Select range models are equipped with an EasyRack

. This

rack offers a convenient place to grasp bakeware when

taking it out of the oven.

Notes:

• Use the EasyRack

only in the oven in which it was

purchased.

• The EasyRack

can be used in all rack positions.

* Brand names for cleaning products are registered trademarks of the respective manufacturers.

Self-Clean Oven

CAUTION

• It is normal for parts of the range to become hot during a

self-clean cycle.

• To prevent personal injury and damage to the oven door

do not attempt to open 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. Do not force the oven

door or lock lever open. This may result in exposure to high

temperatures and be a burn hazard.

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 broiler pan, 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.

To set Self-Clean:

Note: Oven temperature must be below 400° F to program

a clean cycle.

1. Close the oven door.

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

3. Press the Clean pad.

• “CLEAN” flashes in the display.

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.

• “CL-M” (Medium Soil, 3 hours) is displayed.

5. Press the More+ or Less- pad to scroll through

the self-cleaning settings.

CL-H” (Heavy Soil, 4 hours)

the self-cleaning time.

6. After four seconds, CLEAN, DELAY and LOCK will appear

in the display to show that the oven is set for a delayed

clean operation. The delay time is displayed.

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

broiler 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. Move door lock

lever to the left to unlock.

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.

If the oven has already been set for a clean

cycle and you wish to set a delay:

1. Press the Delay pad.

• “DELAY” flashes.

• 00:00 will appear in the display.

2. Press the More+ or Less- pad to set the

amount of time you want to delay the cycle.
