RANGE SAFETY  
This symbol alerts you to hazards such  
as fire, electrical shock, or other injuries.  
Your safety is important to us.  
This guide contains safety statements under warning  
symbols. Please pay special attention to these symbols  
and follow any instructions given. Here is a brief  
explanation of the use of the symbol.  
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS  
To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, injury  
to persons, or damage when using the range,  
follow basic precautions, including the following:  
wWARNING  
Do not use the range for warming or  
heating the room. Persons could be  
burned or injured, or a fire could start.  
General  
Read all instructions before using  
the range.  
Use the range only for its intended use  
as described in this manual.  
Install or locate the range only in accor-  
dance with the provided Installation  
Instructions. The range must be installed  
by a qualified installer. The range must  
be properly connected to electrical  
supply and grounded.  
Do not touch surface units, areas near  
units, heating elements, or interior  
surfaces of oven. Surface units and  
heating elements may be hot even  
though they are dark in color. Areas  
near surface units and interior surfaces  
of an oven become hot enough to  
cause burns. During and after use, do  
not touch or let clothing or other flam-  
mable materials contact surface units,  
areas near units, heating elements, or  
interior surfaces of oven until they have  
had sufficient time to cool. Other sur-  
faces of the range, such as the oven  
vent opening, the surface near the vent  
opening, the cooktop, and the oven  
door, could also become hot enough to  
cause burns.  
WARNING: To reduce the risk of tipping  
the appliance, the appliance must be  
secured by a properly installed anti-tip  
bracket. To check if the bracket is  
installed properly, see “The anti-tip  
bracket” on page 27.  
CAUTION: Do not store things children  
might want above the range. Children  
could be burned or injured while climb-  
ing on it.  
Do not leave children alone or unat-  
tended in area where the range is in use.  
They should never be allowed to sit or  
stand on any part of the range. They  
could be burned or injured.  
Do not operate the range if it is  
damaged or not working properly.

RANGE SAFETY  
Coil element cooktop models: Do not  
line reflector bowls with aluminum foil  
or other liners. Improper installation of  
these liners could result in a risk of  
electric shock or fire.  
Do not wear loose or hanging garments  
Select a pan with a flat bottom that is  
about the same size as the surface unit.  
If pan is smaller than the surface unit,  
some of the heating element will be ex-  
posed and could result in the igniting of  
clothing or pot holders. Correct pan size  
also improves cooking efficiency.  
when using the range. They could ignite  
if they touch a hot surface unit and you  
could be burned.  
Use only dry pot holders. Moist or damp  
pot holders on hot surfaces could result  
in burns from steam. Do not let pot  
holder touch hot heating elements. Do  
not use a towel or bulky cloth for a pot  
holder. It could catch on fire.  
Check to be sure glass cookware is safe  
for use on the range. Only certain types  
of glass, glass-ceramic, ceramic, earthen-  
ware, or other glazed cookware are  
suitable for cooktops without breaking due  
to the sudden change in temperature.  
Keep range vents unobstructed.  
Do not heat unopened containers. They  
could explode. The hot contents could  
cause burns and container particles  
could cause injury.  
Never leave surface units unattended at  
high heat settings. A boilover could result  
and cause smoking and greasy spillovers  
that could ignite.  
Use only cookware approved for oven  
use. Follow cookware manufacturer’s  
instructions, especially when using glass  
or plastic cookware.  
Do not store flammable materials on or  
near the range. The fumes could create  
an explosion and/or fire hazard.  
Turn pan handles inward, but not over  
other surface units. This will help reduce  
the chance of burns, igniting of flammable  
materials, and spills due to bumping of  
the pan.  
When using the cooktop  
Ceramic glass cooktop model: Do not  
cook on a broken cooktop. If the cook-  
top should break, cleaning solutions and  
spillovers could penetrate the broken  
cooktop and create a risk of electrical  
shock. Contact a qualified technician  
immediately.  
Coil element cooktop models: Make sure  
the reflector bowls are in place during  
cooking. Cooking without reflector bowls  
could subject the wiring and compo-  
nents underneath them to damage.

RANGE SAFETY  
When using the oven  
Always position oven rack(s) in desired  
location while oven is cool. If a rack must  
be removed while oven is hot, do not let  
pot holder contact hot heating elements  
in oven.  
Do not use oven cleaners. No commer-  
cial oven cleaner or oven liner protective  
coating of any kind should be used in or  
around any part of the oven.  
Use care when opening oven door. Let  
hot air or steam escape before removing  
or replacing food.  
Before self-cleaning the oven, remove  
broiler pan, broiler grid, oven racks, and  
other cookware. Do not use your oven to  
clean miscellaneous parts unless you  
are instructed to do so in this Use and  
Care Guide.  
Grease  
Grease is flammable. Do not allow  
grease to collect around cooktop or in  
vents. Wipe spillovers immediately.  
Coil element cooktop models: Do not  
soak removable heating elements in  
water. The elements will be damaged  
and shock or fire could result.  
Ceramic glass cooktop model: Clean  
cooktop with care. Some cleaners could  
produce noxious fumes if applied to a  
hot surface. If a wet soft cloth is used to  
wipe spills on a hot cooking area, be  
careful to avoid steam burns.  
Do not use water on grease fires. Never  
pick up a flaming pan. Smother flaming  
pan on range by covering with a well-  
fitting lid, cookie sheet, or flat tray.  
Flaming grease outside of pan can be  
extinguished with baking soda or, if  
available, a multipurpose dry chemical or  
foam-type extinguisher.  
Do not clean door heat seal. It is  
essential for a good seal. Care should  
be taken not to rub, damage, or move  
the seal. Clean only parts recommended  
in this Use and Care Guide.  
Care and cleaning  
Do not repair or replace any part of the  
range unless specifically recommended  
in this manual. All other servicing should  
be referred to a qualified technician.  
Small amounts of formaldehyde and  
carbon monoxide are given off in the  
Self-Cleaning cycle from fiberglass  
insulation and food decomposition.  
Significant exposure to these substances  
could cause cancer or reproductive  
harm. Exposure can be minimized by  
venting with a hood or open window and  
wiping out excess food spills prior to  
self-cleaning.  
Disconnect the electrical supply before  
servicing the range.

USING YOUR RANGE  
USING THE SURFACE UNITS (CONT.)  
Do not place your canner on 2 surface units at the  
Cookware tips  
same time. Too much  
heat will buildup and will  
damage the cooktop.  
Use the correct cookware to prevent damage to  
the surface unit, cooktop, wiring, and surround-  
ing areas.  
Start with hot water.  
If the cookware is too small for the surface unit

or the bottom is not flat, the surface unit could  
stay glowing red for an extended length of time  
causing damage to the unit.  
If you start cooking on high, it is important to turn  
the control down to a lower setting to complete  
cooking.  
To keep your elements working for as long as  
possible:  
The surface unit could overheat or be damaged  
if a pot has boiled dry or has been left empty on  
a hot surface unit.  
–Prepare small batches at a time.  
Flat bottomed cookware, including woks, can-

ners, and teakettles, will provide better contact  
with the surface unit and provide the best cook-  
ing results.  
On coil element models, keep your reflector bowls  
clean so that they will always reflect heat well.  
Refer to your canner manual for specific  
instructions.  
Warped, dented, and ribbed-bottomed cookware  
can result in uneven cooking due to incomplete  
contact with the surface unit.  
Optional canning kit  
(Coil element models)  
Cookware that has been designed with slightly  
indented bottoms or small expansion channels  
Most water-bath or pressure canners have large  
diameters. If you do canning with them at high heat  
settings for long periods of time, you can shorten the  
life of regular surface units. This can also damage the  
cooktop. If you plan to use the cooktop for canning,  
we recommend the installation of a Canning Kit.  
Order the kit (Part No. 242905) from your Roper  
dealer or authorized Roper service company.

Choose medium to heavy gauge (thickness)  
cookware.  
The pan material (type of metal or glass) affects  
how quickly and evenly the pan heats.  
Home canning information  
To protect your range:  
Use flat-bottomed canners/pans for best results.  
Use the largest surface unit for best results. Also,  
use a canner/pan that

Do not use the cooktop as a cutting board.  
(Ceramic glass cooktop model)  
Do not allow anything that could melt, such as  
plastic or aluminum foil, to come in contact with  
the cooktop while it is hot.  
Cooking on the ceramic glass cooktop is similar to  
cooking on coil surface  
units. There are, how-  
ever, a few differences:  
Sugary spills and soils can cause pitting. See  
page 37 for more information.

Before turning on the oven, place oven racks  
where you need them.  
To move a rack, pull it out to the stop, raise the  
front edge, and lift it out.

nonfrozen pies  
2nd or 3rd rack  
guide from bottom  
When baking/roasting with 1 rack, place the  
rack so the top of the food will be centered in  
the oven.  
NOTE: For information on where to place your rack  
when broiling, see “Broiling guide” on page 25.  
When baking/roasting on 2 racks, arrange the  
racks on the 2nd and 4th rack guides from the  
bottom.  
Do not place items on the oven door when it  
is open.  
Using insulated bakeware, ovenproof  
glassware, and dark metal pans  
When baking with insulated cookie sheets or  
baking pans, place them in the bottom third of  
the oven. You may need to increase the recom-  
mended baking times, so test for doneness  
before removing from the oven.  
When using ovenproof glassware or dark  
bakeware, reduce the oven temperature by 25°F  
but use the same baking time. Because these  
pans absorb heat, producing darker bottom  
browning and crispier crusts, place the rack in  
the center of the oven. When baking pies and  
bread, you can use the temperature suggested in  
the recipe.

USING YOUR RANGE  
FOR BEST AIR CIRCULATION  
Hot air must circulate around the pans in the oven  
for even heat to reach all parts of the oven. This  
results in better baking.  
Place the pans so that one is not directly over  
the other.  
For best results, allow 112-2 inches of space  
around each pan and between pans and  
oven walls.  
Use only one cookie sheet in the oven at a time.  
Where to place pans:  
WHEN YOU HAVE PLACE  
1 pan  
In center of the oven rack.  
2 pans  
Side by side or slightly  
staggered.  
3 or 4 pans  
In opposite corner on each  
oven rack. Stagger pans  
so no pan is directly over  
another.  
USING ALUMINUM FOIL FOR BAKING  
Use aluminum foil to catch spillovers from pies

ADJUSTING THE OVEN TEMPERATURE CONTROL  
Although your new oven is properly adjusted to  
provide accurate temperatures, it may cook faster  
or slower than your old oven.  
If you are not satisfied with the baking/roasting  
results, you can change the temperature calibration  
by following the steps below.  
NOTE: DO NOT measure the oven temperature with  
a thermometer. Opening the oven door will lower  
the oven temperature and give you an incorrect  
reading. Also, the thermometer temperature reading  
will change as your oven cycles.

designed to drain extra liquid and grease away  
from the cooking surface. This drainage helps  
prevent spatter, smoke, or fire.  
After broiling, remove the broiler pan from the  
oven when you remove the food. Drippings will  
bake on the pan if you leave it in the heated oven.  
Do not cover the broiler grid with foil.  
To make sure the grease drains well, do not use  
cookie sheets or similar pans for broiling.  
Broiling guide  
Recommended rack positions are numbered from  
the bottom (1) to the top (5). For best results, turn  
meat after approximately 23 of the broiling time.  
Turn chicken pieces after approximately half of  
the broiling time. Very thin cuts, such as fish fillets,  
may not need to be turned at all. Lobster tails are  
not turned.

USING THE SELF-CLEANING CYCLE  
(MODELS FES330E AND FES364E)  
The Self-Cleaning cycle saves you from the toil and mess that often come with hand-cleaning  
the inside of the oven. Like the other functions of your range, you run the Self-Cleaning cycle  
with the easy-to-use controls. Please review the instructions in this section to keep your  
oven spotless.  
wWARNING  
Burn Hazard  
Do not touch the oven during the Self-Cleaning cycle.  
Keep children away from oven during Self-Cleaning cycle.  
Do not use commercial oven cleaners in your oven.  
Failure to follow these instructions can result in burns, or illness from inhaling  
dangerous fumes.  
BEFORE YOU START  
Before you start the Self-Cleaning cycle, make  
sure you:  
Hand-clean the areas shown. They do not get hot  
DO NOT  
enough during the Self-Cleaning cycle for soil to  
burn away. Use hot water and detergent or a

NOTE: DO NOT clean, move, or bend the seal.  
You may get poor cleaning, baking, and roasting.

Wipe out any loose soil or grease. This will help  
reduce smoke during the Self-Cleaning cycle.  
Hand-clean  
door around  
edge  
Wipe up food spills containing sugar as soon as  
possible after the oven cools down. When sugar  
is heated to a high temperature in the Self-  
Cleaning cycle, the high temperature can cause  
the sugar to burn and react with the porcelain.  
This can cause staining and etching or pitting.  
Remove the oven racks from the oven if you want  
them to remain shiny. You can clean the oven  
racks in the Self-Cleaning cycle, but they will  
become harder to slide. (See page 33.) If you  
clean the racks in the Self-Cleaning cycle, place  
them on the 2nd and 4th rack guides. (The guides  
are counted from bottom to top.)  
TIPS:  
Do not block the vent during the Self-Cleaning  
cycle. Air must move freely for best cleaning results.  
Do not leave plastic utensils on the cooktop. They  
may melt.  
Do not leave any foil in the oven during the Self-  
Cleaning cycle. Foil could burn or melt and  
damage the oven surface.  
Heat and odors are normal during the Self-  
Cleaning cycle. Keep the kitchen well ventilated  
by opening a window or by turning on a vent  
hood or other kitchen vent during the cycle.

Self-cleaning tips  
Clean the oven before it gets heavily soiled. Clean-  
ing a very soiled oven takes longer and could cause  
an increased amount of smoke.  
Keep the kitchen well ventilated during the Self-  
Cleaning cycle to help get rid of heat, odors, and  
smoke.  
HOW THE CYCLE WORKS  
The Self-Cleaning cycle uses very high heat to burn  
away soil and grease. During the cycle, the oven  
gets much hotter than it does for normal baking or  
broiling. This high heat breaks up the soil or grease  
and burns it away.  
CLEANING CYCLE

HOW TO CLEAN  
Control knobs  
1. Turn the knobs off and pull them straight away from the control panel.  
2. Wash the knobs with a sponge and warm, soapy water. Rinse and dry  
them well. Do not soak them. Do not use steel wool or gritty cleansers,  
which can damage the finish of the knobs.  
3. Replace the knobs. Make sure all knobs are turned off.  
Control panel  
Wash the panel with a sponge and warm, soapy water. Wipe the panel with  
clean water and dry it well. Do not use steel wool or gritty cleansers,  
which can damage the finish.  
OR  
Wash the panel with a paper towel and spray glass cleaner. Do not spray  
the cleaner directly on the panel. Apply the cleaner to the paper towel.  
Exterior surfaces  
(other than ceramic  
glass cooktop and  
control panel)  
Wash with a sponge and warm, soapy water. Wipe with clean water and  
dry well.  
Use a nonabrasive, plastic scrubbing pad on heavily soiled areas.  
Do not use gritty or harsh cleansers, which can damage the finish.  
NOTE: Do not let foods containing acids (such as vinegar, tomato, or lemon  
juice) remain on the surface. Acids may remove the glossy finish. Also wipe up  
milk or egg spills when the cooktop is cool. Be careful when cleaning  
around the model and serial number plate; too much scrubbing could  
remove the numbers.  
Surface units  
You do not have to clean open coil elements because spatters or spills will  
burn off.

CLEANING THE CERAMIC GLASS COOKTOP (MODEL FES364E)  
Your cooktop is designed for easy care. However,  
you need to maintain your ceramic glass cooktop  
differently than you would standard electric open-  
coil elements. Foods spilled directly on the cooktop  
will not burn off as on open-coil elements. Because  
of this, you should keep the surface dust free and  
soil free before heating.  
Cleaning tips  
What to use:  
Cooktop Polishing Creme included with your  
range with a soft cloth  
or clean, damp sponge –  
This creme has been  
developed especially for  
cleaning and protecting  
your cooktop. When  
using the creme, follow  
the instructions on the  
container.  
Your cooktop has been prepolished at the factory  
for improved protection  
and easier cleaning.  
The Cooktop Polish-  
ing Creme included  
with your range,  
a soft cloth or a  
sponge, and a single-  
edge razor blade in a  
holder (see next page  
for ordering information)  
Razor scraper in a holder – Use this scraper to  
remove cooked-on soils  
from your ceramic glass  
cooktop. To avoid  
scratches, keep the razor  
blade as flat against the  
cooktop as possible.  
Store razor blades out  
of reach of children.  
are all you need  
to clean your cooktop. For proper cleaning meth-  
ods, please review Cleaning tips” in the next  
column and on the next page. Follow them after  
each time you use your cooktop. This will ensure  
you get the best performance out of your cooktop,  
as well as preserve that uniquely elegant look.  
To avoid damaging the cooktop, follow these  
instructions:  
Remove sugar spills and soils from the cooktop  
while the surface is still warm to avoid pitting on  
the surface.  
Marks from sliding metal pans on the cooktop are  
difficult to remove completely. Use cooktop  
polishing creme to clean the area. Several appli-  
cations may be necessary.  
Do not use steel wool, plastic cleaning pads,  
gritty powdered cleansers, chlorine bleach, rust  
remover, ammonia, or glass cleaning products  
with ammonia. These products could damage  
the cooktop surface.

they occur.  
Sugary spills  
and soils (such  
as jellies and  
candy syrups)  
2. For stubborn spills, rub the Cooktop Polishing  
Creme into cooked-on soil using a soft cloth.  
If some soil remains, leave some creme on the  
spot(s) and follow Step 3.  
3. Carefully scrape spots with the razor scraper.  
4. Finish by polishing the entire cooktop with  
Cooktop Polishing Creme and a soft cloth.  
Dark streaks,  
specks, and  
discoloration  
Use the Cooktop Polishing  
Creme or a nonabrasive  
cleanser with a damp soft  
cloth or sponge.

sponge before heating the  
cooktop again. If heated  
before cleaning, metal  
marks may not come off.
