SURFACE COOKING UNITS
Never leave surface units unattended at high heat settings. Boilovers cause smoking and
greasy spillovers that may ignite.
Do not lift the cooktop. Lifting the cooktop can lead to damage and improper operation of the
range.
Do not operate the cooktop when there is no cookware. If the cooktop operates without a
cookware, the control knob will become hot.
Never use the glass cooktop surface as a cutting board.
Use care when touching the cooktop. The glass surface of the cooktop will retain heat after
the controls have been turned off.
Be careful when placing spoons or other stirring utensils on the glass cooktop surface
when it is in use. They may become hot and could cause burns.
Use proper pan sizes. This appliance is equipped with 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.
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 outward 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 outward, and does
not extend over adjacent surface units.
Read and follow all instructions and warnings on the cleaning cream labels.
Be sure you know which control knob operates each surface unit. Make sure you turned on the
correct surface unit.
Always turn the surface units off before removing cookware.
When preparing flaming foods under the hood, turn the fan on.
Keep an eye on foods being fried at high or medium high heat settings.

OVEN
DO NOT TOUCH HEATING ELEMENTS OR INTERIOR SURFACES OF THE 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.
Do not heat unopened food containers. Build-up of pressure may cause the container to burst
and result in injury.
Do not use the oven to dry newspapers. If overheated, they can catch on fire.
Do not use the oven for a storage area. Items stored in an oven can ignite.
Use care when opening door. Let hot air or steam escape before you remove or replace food in
the oven.
Protective liners. Do not use aluminum foil to line the oven bottoms, except as suggested in the
manual. Improper installation of these liners may result in a risk of electric shock or fire.
Keep oven vent ducts unobstructed. The oven vent is located above the right rear surface
unit. this area could become hot during oven use. Never block this vent or place plastic or heat-
sensitive items on it.
Placement of oven racks. Always place oven racks in the desired location while the oven is
cool. If the rack must be moved while the oven is hot, do not let the potholder come in contact
with the hot heating element in the oven.
Do not allow aluminum foil or a meat probe to contact heating elements.
WARMING DRAWER
DO NOT TOUCH THE HEATING ELEMENT OR THE INTERIOR SURFACE OF THE
DRAWER. These surfaces may be hot enough to burn.
REMEMBER: The inside surface of the drawer may be hot when the drawer is opened.
The purpose of the warming drawer is to hold hot cooked foods at serving temperature.
Always start with hot food; cold food cannot be heated or cooked in the warming drawer.
Use care when opening the drawer. Open the drawer a crack and let hot air or steam escape
before removing or replacing food. Hot air or steam which escapes can cause burns to hands,
face and/or eyes.
Do not use the drawer to dry newspapers. If overheated, they can catch on fire.
Do not use aluminum foil to line the drawer. Foil is an excellent heat insulator and will trap
heat beneath it. This will upset the performance of the drawer and it could damage the interior
finish.
Do not leave paper products, plastics, canned food or combustible materials in the drawer.
Never leave jars or cans of fat drippings in or near your drawer.
Do not warm food in the drawer for more than three hours.

SELF-CLEANING OVENS
Do not clean the door gasket. The door gasket is essential for a good seal. Care should be
taken not to rub, damage, or move the gasket.
Never keep pet birds in the kitchen. The health of birds is extremely sensitive to the fumes
released during an oven self-clean cycle. Fumes may be harmful or fatal to birds. Move birds to a
well-ventilated room.
Clean only parts listed in this manual in the self-clean cycle. Before self-cleaning the oven,
remove the broil pan, rack, utensils, and food.
No commercial oven cleaner or oven liner protective coating of any kind should be used in or
on the outside of the oven. Use only a ceramic cooktop cleaner or the cleaner supplied with this
appliance on the glass cooktop.
Nickel oven shelves should be removed from the oven before beginning the self-cleaning cycle, or
they may discolor.
If the self-clean mode malfunctions, turn the oven off and disconnect the power supply. Have it
serviced by a qualified technician.
VENTILATING HOOD
Clean ventilating hoods frequently. Grease should not be allowed to accumulate on the hood
or filter.
When flaming foods under the hood, turn the fan on.
GLASS/CERAMIC COOKING SURFACES
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 these areas are the
cook-top and facing the cook-top.
Do not cook on broken cooktop. If cooktop should break, cleaning solutions and spillovers
may penetrate the broken cook-top 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.
BEFORE YOU BEGIN
Clean the oven thoroughly before using for the first time. Remove accessories and operate
the oven at the bake setting at 400°F for 1 hour before using. There will be a distinctive odor; this
is normal, but ensure your kitchen is well ventilated during this conditioning period.

surface cooking
ABOUT SURFACE COOKING
BEFORE COOKING
CAUTION
• Do not use the glass cooktop surface as a cutting board.
• Do not place or store items that can melt or catch fire on the glass cooktop, even
when it is not being used.
• Turn the surface units on only after placing the cookware on them.
• Do not store heavy items above the cooktop surface. They could fall and damage it.
DURING COOKING
CAUTION
• Do not place aluminum foil or plastic items such as salt and pepper shakers, spoon
holders, or plastic wrappings on the range when it is in use. The hot air from the vent
could melt plastics or ignite flammable items.
• Make sure the correct surface unit is turned on.
• Never cook directly on the glass. Always use cookware.
• Always place the pan in the center of the surface unit you are cooking on.
• Never leave surface units unattended while using a high heat setting. Boilovers cause
smoking and greasy spillovers that may catch on fire.
• Turn the surface units off before removing cookware.
• Do not use plastic wrap to cover food. Plastic may melt onto the surface and be very
difficult to remove.
AFTER COOKING
CAUTION
• Do not touch the surface units until they have cooled down.
• The surface may be still be hot and burns may occur if the glass surface is touched
before it has cooled down sufficiently.
• Immediately clean spills on the cooking area to prevent a tough cleaning chore later.
• If cabinet storage is provided directly above the cooking surface, make sure that the
items are infrequently used and can be safely stored in an area subjected to heat.
Temperatures may be unsafe for items such as volatile liquids, cleaners or aerosol
sprays.
About the radiant surface elements
The temperature rises gradually and evenly. As the temperature rises, the radiant element will glow
red. To maintain the selected setting, the element will cycle on and off. The heating element retains
enough heat to provide a uniform and consistent heat during the off cycle. For efficient cooking,
turn off the element several minutes before cooking is complete. This will allow residual heat to
complete the cooking process.
Radiant elements have a limiter that allows the element to cycle ON and OFF, even at the HI
setting. This helps to prevent damage to the ceramic cooktop. Cycling at the HI setting is
normal and can occur if the cookware is too small for the radiant element or if the cookware
bottom is not flat.

USING THE PROPER COOKWARE
Using the right cookware can prevent many problems, such as uneven cooking or extended
cooking times. Using the proper pans will reduce cooking times and cook food more evenly.
CORRECT
INCORRECT
Flat bottom and straight sides.
• Tight fitting lids.
Curved and warped pan
bottoms.
• Weight of handle does not tilt
pan.
Check for flatness by
rotating a ruler across the
bottom of the cookware.
• Pan is well balanced.
Pan overhangs element by more
than one-half inch.
• Pan size matches the amount
of food to be prepared
and the size of the surface
element.
• Made of a material that
conducts heat well.
Pan is smaller than element.
Heavy handle tilts pan.
• Always match pot diameter to
element surface diameter.
CHOOSING THE PROPER COOKWARE
What your cookware is made of determines how evenly and quickly heat is transferred from the
surface element to the pan bottom.
• ALUMINUM - Excellent heat conductor. Some types of food will cause the aluminum to
darken. (Anodized aluminum cookware resists staining & pitting.). If aluminum pans are slid
across the ceramic cooktop, they may leave metal marks that resemble scratches. Remove
these marks as soon as the cooktop cools down.
• COPPER - Excellent heat conductor but discolors easily. May leave metal marks on ceramic
glass (see above).
• STAINLESS STEEL - Slow heat conductor with uneven cooking results. Is durable, easy to
clean and resists staining.
• CAST IRON - A poor conductor; retains heat very well. Cooks evenly once cooking
temperature is reached. Not recommended for use on ceramic cooktops.
• ENAMELWARE - Heating characteristics will vary depending on base material. Porcelain-
enamel coating must be smooth to avoid scratching ceramic cooktops.
• GLASS - Slow heat conductor. Not recommended for ceramic cooktop surfaces because it
may scratch the glass.

PROTECTING THE SMOOTHTOP SURFACE
Cleaning
• Clean the cooktop before using it for the first time.
• 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 the 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.
• Do not use abrasive cleansing powders or scouring pads, which will scratch the cooktop.
• Do not use chlorine bleach, ammonia, or other cleansers not specifically recommended for use
on a glass-ceramic surface.
Preventing marks and scratches
• Do not use glass cookware. It may scratch the cooktop.
• Do not place a trivet or wok ring between the cooktop and the pan. These items can mark or
scratch the cooktop.
• Make sure the cooktop and the pan bottom are clean.
• Do not slide metal pans across the cooktop.
Preventing stains
• Do not 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.
Preventing other damage
• Do not allow plastic, sugar, or foods with high sugar content to melt onto the hot cooktop.
Should this happen, clean immediately.
• Do not let a pan boil dry as this will damage the cooktop. and the pan.
• Do not use the cooktop as a work surface or cutting board.
• Do not cook food directly on the cooktop without the proper cookware.

using the warming drawer
ABOUT THE WARMING DRAWER
The warming drawer will keep hot,
cooked foods warm. Always start with hot
food. Do not use to warm cold food other
than bread, crisping crackers, chips or dry
cereal.
Allow approximately 25 minutes for the
warming drawer to preheat.
• Do not line the warming drawer or pan with aluminum foil. Foil is an excellent heat
insulator and will trap heat beneath it. This will upset the performance of the drawer
and could damage the interior finish.
• Do not put liquid or water in the warming drawer.
• All foods placed in the warming drawer should be covered with a lid or aluminum foil. When
warming pastries or breads, the cover should be vented to allow moisture to escape.
• Remove serving spoons, etc., before placing containers in the warming drawer.
• Food should be kept hot in its cooking container or transferred to a heat-safe serving dish.
Plastic containers or plastic wrap will melt if in direct contact with the drawer, pan or a
hot utensil. Melted plastic may not be removable and is not covered under your warranty.

Centering the baking pans in the oven as much as possible will produce better results. If baking
with more than one pan, place the pans so each has at least 1” to 1½” of air space around it.
If cooking on multiple racks, place the oven racks in positions 2 and 5. Place the cookware as
shown in the figures below.
Fig. 1
Fig. 2
Before using the racks
The oven has three racks.
Each rack has stops that need to be placed correctly on the supports. These stops will keep the
rack from coming completely out.
REMOVING THE RACKS
REPLACING THE RACKS
1. Pull the rack straight out until it stops.
1. Place the end of the rack on the support.
2. Lift up the front of the rack and pull it out.
2. Tilt the front end up and push the rack in.
• Do not cover a rack with aluminum foil or place on the oven bottom. This will disturb
the heat circulation, resulting in poor baking, and may damage the oven bottom.
CAUTION
• Arrange the oven racks only when the oven is cool.

CONVECTION BAKING
By using the convection bake feature, you will be able
to cook faster. You can program the oven for convection
baking at any temperature between 175°F and 550°F.

Convection baking uses a fan to circulate the oven’s heat
evenly and continuously within the oven. This improved
heat distribution allows for even cooking and excellent
results using multiple racks at the same time. Foods
cooked on a single oven rack will generally cook faster
and more evenly with convection baking. Multiple oven
rack cooking may slightly increase cook times for some foods, but the overall result is time saved.
Breads and pastries brown more evenly.
Tips for convection baking
The amount of time you save will vary depending on the amount and type of food you are
cooking. When baking cookies or biscuits, you should use pans with no sides or very low sides
to allow the heated air to circulate around the food. Using a pan with a dark finish will allow faster
cooking times.
When using convection baking with a single rack, place the oven rack in position ꢁ. If cooking on
multiple racks, place the oven racks in positions 2 and ꢂ or positions 2, ꢁ and ꢃ.
When baking a cake, using the bake mode will produce better results.
How to set the oven for convection baking
1. Start the convection baking mode.
Press the CONV. BAKE pad. The default temperature is 350°F.
2. Enter the temperature you want, eg. 400°F, by using the number
pads.
ꢀ. Press the SET/START pad to begin convection baking.
Conv. Bake and the adjusted oven temperature, eg. 375°F, will
appear in the display for 2 seconds.
The temperature display will start to change once the oven
temperature reaches 150°F.
A beep will sound 6 times when the adjusted oven temperature,
eg. 375°F, is reached and the display will show the auto-converted
oven temperature.
ꢁ. Turn off or cancel convection baking by pressing the CLEAR/OFF
pad.
In convection baking mode, the oven automatically reduces the set regular baking
temperature by 25°F to the appropriate conversion temperature.
The convection oven fan shuts off when the oven door is opened.
DO NOT leave the door open for long periods of time while using convection cooking or
you may shorten the life of the convection heating element.

CONVECTION ROASTING
Convection roasting is good for cooking large tender cuts of meat, uncovered.
Heat comes from the top heating element. The convection fan circulates the heated air evenly
over and around the food. Meat and poultry are browned on all sides as if they were cooked on a
rotisserie. The heated air seals in juices quickly for a moist and tender product while, at the same
time, creating a rich golden brown exterior.
How to set the oven for convection roasting
1. Start the convection roasting mode.
Press the CONV. ROAST pad. The default temperature is 350°F.
2. Enter the temperature you want, eg. 400°F, by using the number
pads.
ꢀ. Press the SET/START pad to begin convection roasting.
Conv. Roast and the adjusted oven temperature, eg. 375°F, will
appear in the display for 2 seconds.
The temperature display will start to change once the oven
temperature reaches 150°F.
A beep will sound 6 times when the adjusted oven temperature,
eg. 375°F, is reached and the display will show the auto-converted
oven temperature.
ꢁ. Turn off or cancel convection roasting by pressing the CLEAR/
OFF pad.
In the convection roasting mode, the oven will automatically reduce the set regular baking
temperature by 25°F to the appropriate conversion temperature.
The convection oven fan shuts off when the oven door is opened.
DO NOT leave the door open for long periods of time while using convection cooking or
you may shorten the life of the convection heating element.
When you use the convection roasting feature, it is
important that you use the broil pan and insert. The
pan is used to catch grease spills and the grid is
used to prevent grease spatters.

BROILING
Broil stop position
Leave the door open to the broil stop position. The door will
stay open by itself, yet the proper temperature is maintained
in the oven.
Broil stop position
Using the broil pan
The broil pan and the insert allow grease to drain and be
kept away from the high heat of the broiler.

oven door unnecessarily.
• Check bread products early to avoid over-proofing.
• Do not use the proofing mode for warming food or keeping food hot. The proofing oven
temperature is not hot enough to hold foods at safe temperatures. Use the keep warm
feature (see next page).
• For best results, cover the dough with a cloth or with plastic wrap (the plastic may need
to be anchored underneath the container so the oven fan will not blow it off).

SELF-CLEANING
This self-cleaning oven uses high temperatures (well above cooking temperatures) to burn off
leftover grease and residue completely or reduce them to a finely powdered ash that you can wipe
away with a damp cloth.
• During the self-cleaning cycle, the outside of the range will become very hot to the
touch. Do not leave small children unattended near the appliance.
CAUTION
• 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.
• Do not line the oven walls, racks, bottom or any other part of the range with
aluminum foil. Doing so will result in poor heat distribution, produce poor baking
results and cause permanent damage to the oven interior (aluminum foil will melt to
the interior surface of the oven).
• Do not force the oven door open. This can damage the automatic door locking
system. Use care when opening the oven door after the self-cleaning cycle is
complete. Stand to the side of the oven when opening the door to allow hot air or
steam to escape. The oven may still be VERy HOT.
Before a self-cleaning cycle
• We recommend venting your kitchen with an open window
or using a ventilation fan or hood during the self-cleaning
Fig. 1
cycle.
• Remove the wire rack, broil pan, broil pan insert, all
cookware and any aluminum foil from the oven.
• Wipe up debris from the oven bottom. (Fig. 1)
• The silver-colored oven racks can be self-cleaned, but they
will darken, lose their luster and become hard to slide.
• Residue on the front frame of the range and outside the
gasket on the door will need to be cleaned by hand. Clean
these areas with hot water, soap-filled steel-wool pads or
cleansers such as Soft Scrub. Rinse well with clean water
and dry.

STEAM-CLEANING
How to set the oven for steam-cleaning
Steam-cleaning saves time and energy for light cleaning. For heavier-duty cleaning of debris and
grease, use the self-cleaning function.
1. Remove all accessories from the oven.
2. Pour approximately 10 oz. (300 ml) of water onto the bottom of
the empty oven and close the oven door.
Use normal water only, no distilled water.
ꢀ. Press the STEAM CLEAN pad.
ꢁ. Press the SET/START pad.
When the operation is complete, the display will blink and a beep
will sound.
ꢂ. Press the CLEAR/OFF pad.
ꢃ. Clean the oven’s interior.
There will be a significant amount of water remaining on the
bottom of the oven after a steam-cleaning cycle. Remove the
residual water with a sponge or soft dry cloth.
When steam-cleaning, use exactly 10 oz. of water since this produces the best results.
If you press the STEAM CLEAN pad when the oven temperature is above 100˚F, Hot will
appear in the display. Because these functions produce the best results when started while
the oven is cool, we recommend that you wait until the oven has cooled down and Hot
disappears from the display.
After a steam-cleaning cycle
• Take care when opening the door before a steam-cleaning procedure has ended; the water on
the bottom is hot.
• Open the oven door and remove the remaining water with a sponge. Do not leave the residual
water in the oven for any length of time. Wipe the oven clean and dry with a soft cloth (do not
forget to wipe under the oven door seal).
• Use a detergent-soaked sponge, a soft brush, or a nylon scrubber to wipe the oven interior.
Remove stubborn residue with a nylon scourer. You can remove lime deposits with a cloth
soaked in vinegar.
• If the oven remains dirty, you can repeat the procedure once the oven has cooled.
• For heavy residue, such as grease left over from roasting, we recommend that you rub
detergent into the residue before activating the steam-cleaning function.
• After cleaning, leave the oven door ajar at a 15° angle to allow the interior enamel surface to dry
thoroughly.

• This area could become hot during
oven use.
• It is normal for steam to come out
of the vent.
• The vent is important for proper air
circulation. Never block this vent.
Cleaning painted parts and decorative trim
• For general cleaning, use a cloth with hot and soapy water.
• For more difficult residue and built-up grease, apply a liquid detergent directly onto the area and
leave for 30 to 60 minutes. Wipe with a damp cloth and dry. Do not use abrasive cleaners on
any of these surfaces; they can scratch.
Cleaning stainless steel surfaces
1. Shake the bottle of Stainless Steel Appliance Cleaner or polish well.
2. Place a small amount of stainless steel appliance cleaner or polish on a damp cloth or damp
paper towel.
3. Clean a small area, rubbing with the grain of the stainless steel if applicable.
4. Dry and buff with a clean, dry paper towel or soft cloth.
5. Repeat as necessary.
• Do not use a steel-wool pad; it will scratch the surface.
• If a mineral oil-based stainless steel appliance cleaner has been used before to clean
the appliance, wash the surface with dishwashing liquid and water prior to using the
Stainless Steel Appliance Cleaner or polish.
