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.  
The fiberglass insulation in self-clean ovens gives off a very small amount of carbon monoxide during  
the cleaning cycle. Exposure can be minimized by venting with an open window or using a ventilation  
fan or hood.  
OpeagIructions  
Fluorescent light bulbs contain mercury. If your model has a surface light, you must recycle the  
fluorescent light bulb according to local, state and federal codes.

RADIANT SURFACE UNITS  
Use proper pan size—select cookware having flat bottoms large enough to cover the surface unit  
heating element. The use of undersized cookware will expose a portion of the surface unit to direct  
contact and may result in ignition of clothing. Proper relationship of cookware to surface unit will also  
improve efficiency.

solution may penetrate a broken cooktop  
and create a risk of electrical shock.  
Only certain types of glass, glass ⁄ceramic,  
earthenware or other glazed containers are  
suitable for cooktop service; others may  
break because of the sudden change in  
temperature.  
Contact a qualified technician immediately  
should your glass cooktop become broken.  
Never use the glass cooktop surface as a  
cutting board.  
To minimize the possibility of burns,  
ignition of flammable materials and  
spillage, the handle of a container should  
be turned toward the center of the range  
without extending over nearby surface units.  
Do not place or store items that can melt or  
catch fire on the glass cooktop, even when  
it is not being used.  
rdCleaing  
Be careful when placing spoons or other  
stirring utensils on glass cooktop surface  
when it is in use. They may become hot and  
could cause burns.  
Always turn the surface units off before  
removing cookware.

Use care when touching the cooktop. The  
glass surface of the cooktop will retain heat  
after the controls have been turned off.  
NOTE: We recommend that you avoid  
wiping any surface unit areas until they  
have cooled and the indicator light has  
gone off. Sugar spills are the exception to  
this. Please see the Cleaning the glass  
cooktop section.  
Keep an eye on foods being fried at high or  
T
medium high heat settings.  
rubleshotingT  
Foods for frying should be as dry as  
possible. Frost on frozen foods or moisture  
on fresh foods can cause hot fat to bubble  
up and over the sides of the pan.  
When the cooktop is cool, use only the  
recommended cleaning cream to clean  
the cooktop.  
Use little fat for effective shallow or deep  
fat frying. Filling the pan too full of fat can  
cause spillovers when food is added.  
ips  
To avoid possible damage to the cooking  
surface, do not apply cleaning cream to the  
glass surface when it is hot.  
If a combination of oils or fats will be used  
in frying, stir together before heating, or as  
fats melt slowly.  
After cleaning, use a dry cloth or paper  
towel to remove all cleaning cream residue.  
CnsmeSuport  
Always heat fat slowly, and watch as it heats.  
Use a deep fat thermometer whenever  
possible to prevent overheating fat beyond  
the smoking point.  
Read and follow all instructions and  
warnings on the cleaning cream labels.  
Avoid scratching the glass cooktop. The  
cooktop can be scratched with items such  
as sharp instruments, rings or other  
jewelry, and rivets on clothing.

Place the oven shelf in the desired position  
while the oven is cool. If shelves must be  
handled when hot, do not let pot holder  
contact the heating elements.  
Do not use aluminum foil to line oven  
bottoms, except as suggested in this  
manual. Improper installation of  
aluminum foil may result in a risk of  
electric shock or fire.  
OpeagIructions  
When using cooking or roasting bags in  
the oven, follow the manufacturer’s  
directions.  
Pulling out the shelf to the stop-lock is a  
convenience in lifting heavy foods. It is also  
a precaution against burns from touching  
hot surfaces of the door or oven walls.  
SELF-CLEANING OVEN  
rdCleaing  
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. Residue from oven cleaners will damage the inside  
of the oven when the self-clean cycle is used.  
ips  
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.

About the radiant surface units…  
SURFACE  
COOKING  
The radiant cooktop features heating  
units beneath a smooth glass surface.  
Water stains (mineral deposits) are removable  
using the cleaning cream or full strength white  
vinegar.  
NOTE: A slight odor is normal when a new  
cooktop is used for the first time. It is caused by  
the heating of new parts and insulating materials  
and will disappear in a short time.  
SafeyIructions  
Use of window cleaner may leave an  
iridescent film on the cooktop. The cleaning  
cream will remove this discoloration.  
Don’t store heavy items above the cooktop. If  
they drop onto the cooktop, they can cause  
damage.  
The surface unit will cycle on and off to  
maintain your selected control setting.  
Never cook directly on the glass.  
Always use cookware.  
It is safe to place hot cookware on the  
glass surface even when the cooktop  
is cool.  
Do not use the surface as a cutting board.  
OFF CENTER  
Even after the surface units are turned  
off, the glass cooktop retains enough  
heat to continue cooking. To avoid  
over-cooking, remove pans from the  
surface units when the food is cooked.  
Avoid placing anything on the surface  
unit until it has cooled completely.  
OpeagIructions  
Always place the pan in the center of  
the surface unit you are cooking on.  
Do not slide cookware across the  
cooktop because it can scratch the  
glass—the glass is scratch resistant,  
not scratch proof.

To avoid possible burns, place the shelves in the desired position before you turn the oven on.  
Before you begin…  
The shelves have stops, so that when  
placed correctly on the supports, they will  
stop before coming completely out, and  
will not tilt.  
CAUTION: When you are using the shelf in the  
lowest position (A), you will need to use caution  
when pulling the shelf out. We recommend that  
you pull the shelf out several inches and then,  
using two pot holders, pull the shelf out by  
holding the sides of it. The shelf is low and you  
could be burned if you place your hand in the  
middle of the shelf and pull all the way out. Be  
very careful not to burn your hand on the door  
when using the shelf in the lowest position (A).  
When placing and removing cookware,

Preheat the oven if the recipe calls for it.  
Preheating is necessary for good results  
when baking cakes, cookies, pastry and  
breads.  
Baking results will be better if baking pans  
are centered in the oven as much as  
possible. If baking with more than one  
pan, place the pans so each has at least 1  
to 112of air space around it. If baking  
four cake layers at the same time, place  
two layers on rack B and two layers on  
rack D. Stagger the pans on the rack so  
one is not directly above the other.  
To preheat, set the oven at the correct temperature.  
The control will beep when the oven is preheated  
and the display will show your set temperature.  
This will take approximately 8–10 minutes.

Aluminum Foil  
CnsmeSuport  
You can use aluminum foil to line the  
broiler pan and broiler grid. However,  
you must mold the foil tightly to the grid  
and cut slits in it just like the grid.  
Do not use aluminum foil on the bottom of  
the oven.  
Never entirely cover a shelf with  
aluminum foil. This will disturb the heat  
circulation and result in poor baking.  
Without the slits, the foil will prevent fat  
and meat juices from draining into the  
broiler pan. The juices could become  
hot enough to catch on fire. If you  
do not cut the slits, you are essentially  
frying, not broiling.  
Cut slits in the foil just like the grid.  
A smaller sheet of foil may be used to  
catch a spillover by placing it on a lower  
shelf several inches below the food.

Adjust the oven thermostat—Do it yourself!  
You may find that your new oven cooks differently than the one it replaced. Use your new oven for a few  
weeks to become more familiar with it. If you still think your new oven is too hot or too cold, you can adjust

The type of margarine will affect baking performance!  
Most recipes for baking have been developed using high fat products such as butter or margarine (80% fat). If you  
decrease the fat, the recipe may not give the same results as with a higher fat product.  
Recipe failure can result if cakes, pies, pastries, cookies or candies are made with low fat spreads. The lower the fat  
content of a spread product, the more noticeable these differences become.  
rdCleaing  
Federal standards require products labeled “margarine” to contain at least 80% fat by weight. Low fat spreads, on the  
other hand, contain less fat and more water. The high moisture content of these spreads affects the texture and flavor of  
baked goods. For best results with your old favorite recipes, use margarine, butter or stick spreads containing at least  
70% vegetable oil.
