Important Safety Instructions  
IMPORTANTINSTRUCTIONSFORUSINGYOUR  
IMPORTANTINSTRUCTIONSFORUSINGYOUR  
OVEN  
COOKTOP  
• Use Care When Opening Oven Door or Warmer Drawer (if  
equipped)—Stand to the side of the range when opening the door  
of a hot oven. Let hot air or steam escape before you remove or  
replace food in the oven.  
• Know which knob controls each surface heating unit. Place a  
pan of food on the unit before turning it on, and turn the unit off  
before removing the pan.  
• Use Proper Pan Size—This appliance is equipped with one or  
more surface units of different sizes. 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 element will also  
improve efficiency.  
• UtensilHandlesShouldBeTurnedInwardandNotExtendOver  
AdjacentSurfaceElements—Toreducetheriskofburns,ignition  
of flammable materials, and spillage due to unintentional contact  
with the utensil, the handle of the utensil should be positioned so  
that it is turned inward, and does not extend over adjacent surface  
units.  
• Keep Oven Vent Ducts Unobstructed. The oven vent is located  
under the left rear surface element if your model is equipped with  
coil elements. The oven vent is located below the backguard for  
models equipped with ceramic-glass cook tops. Touching the  
surfaces in this area when the oven is operating may cause  
severe burns. Also, do not place plastic or heat-sensitive items  
on or near the oven vent. These items could melt or ignite.  
• Placement of Oven Racks. Always place oven racks in desired  
location while oven is cool. If rack must be moved while oven is  
hot use extreme caution. Use potholders and grasp the rack with  
both hands to reposition. Do not let potholders contact the hot  
heating elements in the oven. Remove all utensils from the rack  
before moving.  
• Donotusethebroilerpanwithoutitsinsert.Thebroilerpanand  
its insert allow dripping fat to drain and be kept away from the high  
heat of the broiler.  
• Donotcoverthebroilerinsertwithaluminumfoil. Exposedfat  
and grease could ignite.  
• Protective Liners—Do not use aluminum foil to line the oven  
bottom. Only use aluminum foil as recommended in this manual.  
Improper installation of these liners may result in risk of electric  
shock, or fire.  
• Never Leave Surface Elements Unattended at High Heat  
Settings—Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers that  
may ignite, or a pan that has boiled dry may melt.  
• Do Not Immerse or Soak Removable Heating Elements—  
Heating elements should never be immersed in water. Heating  
elements clean themselves during normal operation.  
• Glazed Cooking Utensils—Only certain types of glass, glass/  
ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed utensils are  
suitable for cook top service without breaking due to the sudden  
change in temperature. Check the manufacturer’s  
recommendations for cook top use.  
• When flaming foods under a ventilating hood, turn the fan on.  
SELF CLEANING OVENS  
• Clean in the self-cleaning cycle only the parts listed in this Use & Care Manual. Before self cleaning the oven, remove the broiler  
pan and any utensils or foods from the oven.  
• 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.  
• 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.  
•The health of some birds is extremely sensitive to the fumes given off during the self-cleaning cycle of any range. Move birds to another  
well-ventilated room.  
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR CLEANING YOUR RANGE  
• Clean the range regularly to keep all parts free of grease that could catch fire. Pay particular attention to the area underneath each  
surface element. Do not allow grease to accumulate.  
• Kitchen cleaners and aerosols—Always follow the manufacturer’s recommended directions for use. Be aware that excess  
residue from cleaners and aerosols may ignite causing damage and injury.  
• Clean Ventilating Hoods Frequently—Grease should not be allowed to accumulate on the hood or filter. Follow manufacturer’s  
instructions for cleaning.  
COIL COOK TOP MODELS  
• 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 reflector pans. Only use aluminum foil as recommended  
in this manual. Improper installation of these liners may result in risk of electric shock, or fire. Improper installation of these liners  
may result in risk of electric shock, or fire.  
Important Safety Notice  
The California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act requires the Governor of California to publish a list of  
substances known to the state to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm, and requires businesses to warn  
customers of potential exposure to such substances.

Before Setting Oven Controls (cont’d)  
ELEMENT ON Indicator Lights  
Your range is equipped with surface control indicator lights that will glow on your  
range— the ELEMENT ON indicator lights (See illustration at left).  
The ELEMENT ON is located on the control panel and will glow when a surface  
element is turned ON. A quick glance at these indicator lights after cooking is an  
easy check to be sure ALL surface controls are turned OFF.  
Setting Surface Controls  
To Operate Surface Elements (all models)  
To Operate the Surface Elements:  
1. Place cooking utensil on the surface element.  
2. Push in and turn the surface control knob either direction to the desired  
setting. Start most cooking operations on a higher setting and then turn to  
a lower setting to finish cooking. The control knobs do not have to be set  
exactly on a particular setting. Use the settings as a guide and adjust the  
control knob as needed.  
3. When cooking is completed, turn the surface element OFF before removing  
the pan. Note: The surface “ELEMENT ON” indicator light(s) will glow  
when one or more elements are turned on. A quick glance at these  
indicator light(s) when cooking is finished is an easy check to be sure all  
surface elements are turned off. See chart below for recommended control  
settings for different types of foods.

Surface Cooking  
Using proper cookware  
The size and type of cookware used will influence the setting  
needed for best cooking results. Cookware should have flat  
bottoms that make good contact with the entire surface heating  
element (See Fig. 1). Check for flatness by rotating a ruler across  
the bottom of the cookware (See Fig. 2).  
Cookware Material Types  
The cookware material determines how evenly and quickly heat is  
transferred from the surface element to the pan bottom. The most  
popularmaterialsavailableare:  
ALUMINUM - Excellent heat conductor. Some types of food will  
cause it to darken (Anodized aluminum cookware resists staining  
& pitting). If aluminum pans slide across the ceramic cooktop,  
they may leave metal marks which will resemble scratches.  
Remove these marks immediately.  
Fig. 1  
COPPER - Excellent heat conductor but discolors easily. May  
leave metal marks on ceramic glass (see Aluminum above).  
Be sure to follow the  
recommendationsfor  
using proper  
cookware as  
STAINLESS STEEL - Slow heat conductor with uneven cooking  
results. Is durable, easy to clean and resists staining.  
illustrated in Figs. 1 &  
2. For more  
CAST IRON - A poor heat conductor however will retain heat very  
well. Cooks evenly once cooking temperature is reached. Not  
recommended for use on ceramic cooktops.

Self-Cleaning  
DuringtheSelf-Cleaning  
cycle, the outside of the range can  
become very hot to the touch. DO NOT  
leave small children unattended near the  
appliance.  
The health of some birds  
is extremely sensitive to the fumes given  
off during the Self-Cleaning cycle of any  
range. Move birds to another well-  
ventilatedroom.  
DO NOT line the oven  
walls, racks, bottom or any other part of  
the range with aluminum foil. Doing so  
will destroy heat distribution, produce  
poor baking results and cause  
permanentdamagetotheoveninterior  
(aluminum foil will melt to the interior  
surfaceoftheoven).  
Self-Cleaning Oven  
A Self-Cleaning oven cleans itself with high temperatures (well above cooking  
temperatures) which eliminate soils completely or reduces them to a fine  
powdered ash you can wipe away with a damp cloth.  
Adhere to the following cleaning precautions:  
DO NOT force the oven  
door open. This can damage the  
automatic door locking system. Use  
caution when opening the door after the  
Self-Cleaning cycle is completed. The  
oven may still be VERY HOT.  
DO NOT use oven cleaners or oven protective coatings in or around any  
partoftheSelf-Cleaningoven.  
DO NOT clean the oven door gasket. The woven material of the oven door  
gasket is essential for a good seal. Care should be taken not to rub,  
damage or remove the gasket.  
DO NOT use any cleaning materials on the oven door gasket. Doing so  
could cause damage.  
Remove the broiler pan and insert, all utensils and any aluminum  
foil. These items cannot withstand high cleaning temperatures.  
Remove the oven racks. If they are not removed during the Self-Clean  
cycle their color will turn slightly blue and the finish will be dull. After the  
cycle is complete and the oven has cooled, rub the sides of the oven racks  
with wax paper or a cloth containing a small amount of salad oil (this will  
make the racks glide easier into the rack position).  
Remove any excessive spillovers in the oven cavity before starting the  
Self-Cleaning cycle. To clean, use hot, soapy water and a cloth. Large  
spillovers can cause heavy smoke or fire when subjected to high  
temperatures. DO NOT allow food spills with a high sugar or acid content  
(such as milk, tomatoes, sauerkraut, fruit juices or pie filling) to remain on  
the surface as they may leave a dull spot even after cleaning.  
Clean any soil from the oven frame, the door liner outside the oven door  
gasket and the small area at the front center of the oven bottom. These  
areas heat sufficiently to burn soil on. Clean with soap and water.  
Note: See additional cleaning information  
for the oven door in the General Care &  
Cleaning section.  
NOTE: Prior to setting the Self-Clean cycle, any spills remaining on the oven  
bottomshouldberemoved.  
Some models have an exposed Bake element in the lower oven cavity. On  
these models the bake element is designed to be tilted up using your hand  
from the front of the bake element. This will allow easier access to the oven  
bottom for cleaning. Be careful not to raise the element more than 4 or 5 inches  
from the resting position.

Self-Cleaning (cont’d)  
Starting the Select Self-Clean Cycle  
For satisfactory results, use a 2 hour Self-Clean cycle for light soils and a 3 hour cycle for average or a 4 hour cycle for  
heavy soils. NOTE: The kitchen area should be well ventilated using an open window, ventitlation fan or exhaust hood  
during the 1st Self-Clean cycle. This will help eliminate the normal odors associated with the 1st Self-Clean cycle.

General Care & Cleaning (cont’d)  
Surface Elements and Drip Bowls  
Surface elements can be unplugged and removed to make cleaning the drip pans easier. The surface elements clean  
themselves when they are turned on. Food spilled on a hot element will burn off. Food spilled on a cool element may be  
cleaned with a damp cloth—any remaining soil will burn off the next time the element is used.  
Never immerse a surface element in water.  
To Remove the Surface Elements and Drip Bowls  
1. Lift the edge of the drip bowl across from the terminal end. Lift the surface  
element and drip bowl together just enough to clear the cooktop.  
2. While holding the drip bowl and surface element, gently pull the terminal  
end out from the terminal plug. If equipped, DO NOT remove the hold down  
clip from the drip bowl.  
To Clean Drip Bowls  
Wash in hot, soapy water or in the dishwasher. Rinse and dry while still warm.  
Hard to remove, burned on soil can be removed by soaking the drip bowls for  
about 20 minutes in a lightly diluted liquid cleanser or a solution of ammonia  
and water (1/2 cup ammonia to 1 gallon of water). A nylon scrubber may be  
used after soaking. DO NOT use abrasive cleaners or steel wool, as they will

scratch the surface. Always rinse with clean water and polish dry with a soft  
cloth.  
To Replace Drip Bowls and Surface Elements  
1. Slide the terminal end on the element through the opening in the drip bowl.  
2. Align the element support to rest on the rim inside the drip bowl. If your drip  
bowl is equipped with a hold down clip, align the element support opposite  
the terminal end with the slot in the hold down clip, and snap into place.  
3. After the element is positioned in the drip bowl, line up the terminal end  
with the terminal plug as shown.  
4. Hold the surface element and drip bowl together as level as possible and  
firmly push the terminal end into the terminal plug. Make sure element  
terminal is seated properly into terminal plug. Make sure the surface  
element is level to reduce the hazard of pans sliding off the element.

NOT drop or bend the range top when  
raising or lowering. This could damage  
the surface.  
To Raise the Top for Cleaning  
1. Grasp the sides and lift from the front. Lift-up rods will support the top in a  
raised position. Only lift the top far enough to allow the support rods to  
snap into place.  
2. Clean underneath using a clean cloth and hot, soapy water.  
3. To lower the top, gently push back on each rod to release the notched  
support. Hold the range top and slide the lift rods down into the range

Oven light does not work.  
Control(s) not set properly. Follow instructions under Setting Oven Controls.  
Oven smokes excessively during broiling.  
Make sure oven door is opened to broil stop position.  
Meat too close to the element. Reposition the rack to provide proper clearance between  
the meat and the element. Preheat broil element for searing.  
Meat not properly prepared. Remove excess fat from meat. Cut remaining fatty edges  
to prevent curling, but do not cut into lean.  
Insert on broiler pan wrong side up and grease not draining. Always place grid on the  
broiler pan with ribs up and slots down to allow grease to drip into pan.  
Grease has built up on oven surfaces. Regular cleaning is necessary when broiling  
frequently. Old grease or food spatters cause excessive smoking.  
Many factors affect baking results. Make sure the proper rack position is used. Center  
food in the oven and space pans to allow air to circulate. Allow the oven to preheat to  
the set temperature before placing food in the oven. Try adjusting the recipe's  
recommended temperature or baking time. If you feel the oven is too hot or cool, see  
Adjusting Your Oven Temperature in this Use & Care Guide.
