SAFETY PRECAUTIONS  
Do not operate the oven or cooktop controls if the glass is broken. Food splatter or cleaning solution  
may penetrate a broken control panel or cooktop and create a risk of electrical shock. Contact a  
qualified technician immediately should your glass control panel or cooktop become broken.  
I Do not store flammable materials in an oven  
or near the cooktop.  
I Do not let cooking grease or other flammable  
materials accumulate in or near the range.  
I Do not touch the surface units, the heating  
elements or the interior surface of the oven.  
These surfaces may be hot enough to burn  
even though they are dark in color. During and  
after use, do not touch, or let clothing or other  
flammable materials contact the surface units,  
areas nearby the surface units or any interior  
area of the oven; allow sufficient time for  
cooling first.  
I
CAUTION:  
Items of interest to children  
should not be stored in cabinets above a range or on  
the back of a range—children climbing on the range  
to reach items could be seriously injured.  
I Never wear loose-fitting or hanging garments  
while using the appliance. Be careful when  
reaching for items stored over the range.  
Flammable material could be ignited if  
brought in contact with hot surface units or  
heating elements and may cause severe burns.  
Potentially hot surfaces include the cooktop,  
areas facing the cooktop, oven vent opening,  
surfaces near the opening, crevices around the  
oven door.  
I Use only dry pot holders—moist or damp  
pot holders on hot surfaces may result in  
burns from steam. Do not let pot holders  
touch hot surface units or heating elements.  
Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth in  
place of pot holders.  
REMEMBER: The inside surface of the oven may be  
hot when the door is opened.  
I Do not store or use combustible materials,  
gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids  
in the vicinity of this or any other appliance.  
I Do not use water on grease fires. Never pick  
up a flaming pan. Turn the controls off.  
Smother a flaming pan on a surface unit  
by covering the pan completely with  
a well-fitting lid, cookie sheet or flat tray.  
Use a multi-purpose dry chemical or  
foam-type fire extinguisher.  
I Keep the hood and grease filters clean  
to maintain good venting and to avoid  
grease fires.  
I Teach children not to play with the controls  
or any other part of the range.  
Flaming grease outside a pan can be put  
out by covering it with baking soda or, if  
available, by using a multi-purpose dry  
chemical or foam-type fire extinguisher.  
I Always keep dish towels, dish cloths, pot  
holders and other linens a safe distance  
from your range.  
I Always keep wooden and plastic utensils and  
canned food a safe distance from your range.  
Flame in the oven can be smothered  
completely by closing the oven door and  
turning the oven off or by using a multi-  
purpose dry chemical or foam-type fire  
extinguisher.  
I Always keep combustible wall coverings,  
curtains or drapes a safe distance from  
your range.  
I For your safety, never use your appliance  
for warming or heating the room.  
COOK MEAT AND POULTRY THOROUGHLY…  
Cook meat and poultry thoroughly—meat to at least an INTERNAL temperature of 160°F and poultry to at least  
an INTERNAL temperature of 180°F. Cooking to these temperatures usually protects against foodborne illness.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION.  
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.  
WARNING!  
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.  
I Never leave the surface units unattended at  
high heat settings. Boilovers cause smoking  
and greasy spillovers that may catch on fire.  
I 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.  
I 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.  
I Never use the glass cooktop surface as a  
cutting board.  
I The surface units are automatically disabled  
during the self-clean cycle. Make sure that all  
surface unit controls are turned off at all times  
during the self-clean cycle. Any surface unit  
that is set to an on position, while the self-clean  
cycle is operating, will automatically come on  
after the self-clean cycle is finished, and could  
result in an on, unattended surface unit. Wait  
until the self-clean cycle is finished to set and  
use the surface units.  
I Do not place or store items that can melt or  
catch fire on the glass cooktop, even when it  
is not being used, or during the self-clean cycle.  
I 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.  
I Clean the cooktop with caution. If a wet  
sponge or cloth is used to wipe spills on a hot  
surface unit, be careful to avoid steam burns.  
Some cleaners can produce noxious fumes if  
applied to a hot surface.  
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.  
I Always turn the surface units off before  
removing cookware.  
I When preparing flaming foods under the  
hood, turn the fan on.  
I Use care when touching the cooktop.  
The glass surface of the cooktop will retain  
heat after the controls have been turned off.  
I Keep an eye on foods being fried at high or  
medium high heat settings.  
I 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.  
I Use little fat for effective shallow or deep  
fat frying. Filling the pan too full of fat can  
cause spillovers when food is added.  
I If a combination of oils or fats will be used  
in frying, stir together before heating, or  
as fats melt slowly.  
I When the cooktop is cool, use only the  
Ceramic Cooktop Cleaner and the Ceramic  
Cooktop Cleaning Pad to clean the cooktop.  
I Always heat fat slowly, and watch as it heats.  
I To avoid possible damage to the cooking  
surface, do not apply cleaning cream to  
the glass surface when it is hot.  
I After cleaning, use a dry cloth or paper towel  
to remove all cleaning cream residue.  
I Use a deep fat thermometer whenever  
possible to prevent overheating fat beyond  
the smoking point.  
I Avoid scratching the glass cooktop. The  
cooktop can be scratched with items such  
as sharp instruments, rings or other jewelry,  
and rivets on clothing.  
I Read and follow all instructions and warnings  
on the cleaning cream labels.  
I Do not use plastic wrap to cover food. Plastic  
may melt onto the surface and be very difficult  
to remove.  
I Large scratches or impacts to glass doors or  
cooktops can lead to broken or shattered glass.  
I Do not operate the radiant surface units if the  
glass is broken. Spillovers or cleaning solution  
may penetrate a broken cooktop and create a  
risk of electrical shock. Contact a qualified  
technician immediately should your glass  
cooktop become broken.

bottoms, except as suggested in this manual.  
Improper installation of aluminum foil may  
result in a risk of electric shock or fire.  
I When using cooking or roasting bags in the  
oven, follow the manufacturer’s directions.  
I Pulling out the rack 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  
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.  
I Be sure to wipe up excess spillage before  
starting the self-cleaning operation.  
I
CAUTION:  
DO NOT LEAVE FOOD OR  
COOKING UTENSILS, ETC. IN THE OVEN OR ON  
THE COOKTOP DURING SELF-CLEANING MODE  
OF OPERATION.  
I If the self-cleaning mode malfunctions, turn  
the oven off and disconnect the power supply.  
Have it serviced by a qualified technician.  
I 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.  
I Clean only parts listed in this Owner’s Manual.  
I The surface units are automatically disabled  
during the self-clean cycle. Make sure that all  
surface unit controls are turned off at all times  
during the self-clean cycle. Any surface unit  
that is set to an on position, while the self-clean  
cycle is operating, will automatically come on  
after the self-clean cycle is finished, and could  
result in an on, unattended surface unit. Wait  
until the self-clean cycle is finished to set and  
use the surface units.  
I Before self-cleaning the oven, remove the  
convection roasting rack, broiler pan, grid  
and other cookware.  
I Shiny, silver-colored oven racks (on some  
models) should be removed from the oven  
before beginning the self-clean cycle.  
I Gray porcelain-coated oven racks (on some  
models) may be cleaned in the oven during  
the self-clean cycle.  
READ AND FOLLOW THIS SAFETY INFORMATION CAREFULLY.

It is safe to place hot cookware from the  
oven or surface on the glass cooktop  
when the surface is cool.  
Never cook directly on the glass.  
Always use cookware.  
Even after the surface units are turned  
off, the glass cooktop retains enough  
heat to continue cooking. To avoid  
overcooking, remove pans from the  
surface units when the food is cooked.  
Avoid placing anything on the surface  
unit until it has cooled completely.  
OFF CENTER  
The radiant cooktop features heating  
units beneath a smooth glass surface.  
Cooktop temperatures increase with  
the number of surface units that are on.  
With 3 or 4 units turned on, surface  
temperatures are high. Always use  
caution when touching the cooktop.  
Always place the pan in the center of  
the surface unit you are cooking on.  
IWater stains (mineral deposits) are removable  
using the cleaning cream or full strength white  
vinegar.  
DRAGGING  
IUse of window cleaner may leave an iridescent  
film on the cooktop. The cleaning cream will  
remove this discoloration.

The following information will help you choose cookware which will give good performance on glass cooktops.  
Stainless Steel:  
recommended  
Porcelain Enamel Covered Cast Iron:  
recommended  
As long as the cookware is covered  
completely with porcelain enamel, this  
cookware is recommended. Caution is  
recommended for cast iron cookware  
that is not completely covered with  
smooth porcelain enamel, as it may  
scratch the glass ceramic cooktop.  
Aluminum:  
heavy weight recommended  
Good conductivity. Aluminum residues  
sometimes appear as scratches on the  
cooktop, but can be removed if cleaned  
immediately. Because of its low melting  
point, thin weight aluminum should not  
be used.  
Check pans for flat bottoms by using  
a straight edge.  
Glass-ceramic:  
usable, but not recommended  
Poor performance. May scratch the  
surface.  
Copper Bottom:  
recommended  
Copper may leave residues which can  
appear as scratches. The residues can  
be removed, as long as the cooktop is  
cleaned immediately. However, do not let  
these pots boil dry. Overheated metal can  
bond to glass cooktops. An overheated  
copper bottom pot will leave a residue  
that will permanently stain the cooktop  
if not removed immediately.  
Stoneware:  
usable, but not recommended  
Poor performance. May scratch the  
surface.  
Pans with rounded, curved, ridged  
or warped bottoms are not  
recommended.  
Home Canning Tips  
Be sure the canner is centered over the  
surface unit.  
Use recipes and procedures from  
reputable sources. These are available  
®
from manufacturers such as Ball and  
Make sure the canner is flat on the  
bottom.  
®
Kerr and the Department of Agriculture  
Extension Service.  
To prevent burns from steam or heat,  
use caution when canning.  
Flat-bottomed canners are recommended.  
Use of water bath canners with rippled  
bottoms may extend the time required to  
bring the water to a boil.  
Wok Cooking  
We recommend that you use only a flat-bottomed  
wok. They are available at your local retail store.  
Do not use woks that have support rings.  
Do not use round-bottom woks. You  
could be seriously burned if the wok  
tipped over.

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  
1to 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 pans on the rack so one is  
not directly above the other.  
Do not place foods directly on the  
oven floor.  
Aluminum Foil  
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 rack with  
aluminum foil. This will disturb the heat  
circulation and result in poor baking.  
Cut slits in the foil just like the grid.  
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.  
A smaller sheet of foil may be used to  
catch a spillover by placing it on a lower  
rack several inches below the food.

The temperature probe has a  
skewer-like probe at one end and  
a plug at the other end that goes

I Do not store the probe in the oven.  
I To avoid breaking the probe, make sure food

After preparing the meat and placing it  
on a trivet or on the broiler pan grid,  
follow these directions for proper probe  
placement.  
For roasts with no bone, insert the probe  
into the meatiest part of the roast. For  
bone-in ham or lamb, insert the probe  
into the center of the lowest large muscle.  
Insert the probe completely into the meat.  
It should not touch bone, fat or gristle.  
NOTE: Failure to fully insert the probe into the  
meat may result in poor cooking performance  
because the probe will sense the oven air vs.  
the food temperature.  
Insert the probe into the center of dishes  
such as meat loaf or casseroles.

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 thermostat  
yourself.  
Do not use thermometers, such as those found in grocery stores, to check the temperature setting of your oven.  
These thermometers may vary 20–40 degrees.

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.  
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.

Using the convection oven. (on some models)  
Convection Fan Operation  
In a convection oven, a fan circulates hot air over,  
under and around the food.  
NOTE: To maximize cooking evenness, the fan is  
designed to rotate in both directions, with a pause  
in between. This is normal.  
This circulating hot air is evenly distributed  
throughout the oven cavity. As a result, foods are  
evenly cooked and browned—often in less time  
with convection heat.  
The convection 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.  
Introduction

convection baking modes started by  
touching the CONVECTION BAKE MULTI/  
1 RACK pad once or twice, depending  
on your cooking need:  
BAKE MULTI/1 RACK pad once. See the  
Multi-Rack Convection Baking section below.  
1 RACK—for convection cooking on one  
rack only. Touch the CONVECTION BAKE  
MULTI/1 RACK pad twice. See the 1-Rack  
Convection Baking section below.  
MULTI—for convection cooking on more  
than one rack. Touch the CONVECTION  
Multi-Rack Convection Baking  
Straight rack  
Because heated air is circulated evenly  
throughout the oven, foods can be  
baked with excellent results using  
multiple racks.  
To cook food on more than one rack in  
convection bake, use CONVECTION BAKE  
MULTI.  
When baking on 3 racks, place one offset  
rack in the third (C) position, the straight  
rack in the fourth (D) position and one  
offset rack in the sixth (F) position.  
Offset racks  
Multi-rack baking may increase cook  
times slightly for some foods but the  
overall result is time saved. Cookies,  
muffins, biscuits and other quickbreads  
give very good results with multi-rack  
baking.

Convection Roast  
Roasting rack  
for best convection roasting results. The  
pan is used to catch grease spills and the  
grid is used to prevent grease spatters,  
while the rack allows the heated air to  
circulate under the meat and increase  
browning on the underside of the meat  
or poultry.  
IGood for large tender cuts of meat, uncovered.  
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. Using the roasting rack  
provided, heated air will be circulated  
over, under and around the food being  
roasted. 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 when Using the Probe  
Place the oven rack in the position  
that centers the food between the  
top and bottom of the oven. Insert  
the probe into the meat. Make sure

Using the proofing and warming features.  
The proofing feature maintains a warm environment useful for rising yeast-leavened products.  
How to Set the Oven For Proofing (on some models)  
Place the covered dough in a dish  
in the oven on shelf B or C.  
Set the KITCHEN TIMER ON/OFF for  
the minimum proof time.  
NOTE: For best results, cover the dough with a  
cloth or with greased plastic wrap (the plastic  
may need to be anchored underneath the  
container so the oven fan will not blow it off).  
When proofing is finished, touch  
the CLEAR/OFF pad.  
ITo avoid lowering the oven temperature and  
lengthening proofing time, do not open the  
oven door unnecessarily.  
Touch the PROOF pad and then  
the START pad.  
ICheck bread products early to avoid  
over-proofing.  
The display will read PrF (proof).  
The oven interior light turns on and  
remains on during proofing.  
NOTE:  
IDo 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 WARM feature  
to keep food warm.  
The proofing feature automatically  
provides the optimum temperature for  
the proofing process, and therefore  
does not have a temperature adjustment.  
IProofing will not operate when oven is above  
125°F. HOT” will show in the display.  
How to Set the Oven For Warming (on some models)  
The WARM feature keeps cooked  
foods hot.

Using the self-cleaning oven.  
The oven door must be closed and all controls set correctly for the cycle to work properly.  
Before a Clean Cycle  
We recommend venting your kitchen  
with an open window or using a  
ventilation fan or hood during the  
first self-clean cycle.  
Soil 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.  
Remove the convection roasting rack,  
broiler pan, broiler grid, probe,  
all cookware and any aluminum foil  
from the oven.  
Do not clean the gasket. The fiberglass  
material of the oven door gasket cannot  
withstand abrasion. It is essential for the  
gasket to remain intact. If you notice it  
becoming worn or frayed, replace it.  
Wipe up heavy soil on the oven  
bottom.  
NOTE:  
I If your oven is equipped with shiny, silver-  
colored oven racks, remove them before  
you begin the self-clean cycle.  
Wipe up any heavy spillovers on the  
oven bottom.  
I If your oven is equipped with gray porcelain-  
coated oven racks, they may be left in the  
oven during the self-clean cycle.  
Make sure the oven light bulb cover is  
in place and the oven light is off.  
IMPORTANT: 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.  
The shiny, silver-colored oven racks  
(on some models) and the convection  
roasting rack can be self-cleaned, but  
they will darken, lose their luster and  
become hard to slide.  
How to Set the Oven for Cleaning  
You can change the clean time to any  
time between 212 hours and 5 hours,  
depending on how dirty your oven is.  
WARNING:  
The surface  
units are automatically disabled during  
the self-clean cycle. Make sure that all  
surface unit controls are turned off at all  
times during the self-clean cycle. Any  
surface unit that is set to an on position,  
while the self-clean cycle is operating, will  
automatically come on after the self-clean  
cycle is finished, and could result in an  
on, unattended surface unit. Wait until  
the self-clean cycle is finished to set and  
use the surface units.  
Touch the START pad.  
The door locks automatically. The display  
will show the clean time remaining. It will  
not be possible to open the oven door

be able to open the door.  
Touch the SELF CLEAN STD/LO pad  
once for a 4-hour clean time or  
twice for a 3-hour clean time.  
I The word LOCKED will flash and the  
word door will display if you set the  
clean cycle and forget to close the  
oven door.  
A 3-hour self-clean time is  
recommended for use when  
cleaning small, contained spills.  
A self-clean time of 4 hours or  
longer is recommended for  
a dirtier oven.  
I To stop a clean cycle, touch the  
CLEAR/OFF pad. When the LOCKED light  
goes off indicating the oven has cooled  
below the locking temperature, you

Cleaning the Oven Door  
To clean the inside of the door:  
To clean the outside of the door:  
I Because the area inside the gasket is cleaned  
during the self-clean cycle, you do not need to  
clean this by hand.  
I Use soap and water to thoroughly clean the  
top, sides and front of the oven door. Rinse  
well. You may also use a glass cleaner to clean  
the glass on the outside of the door. Do not let  
water drip into the vent openings.  
I The area outside the gasket and the door liner  
can be cleaned with a soap-filled steel wool or  
plastic pad, hot water and detergent. Rinse  
well with a vinegar and water solution.  
The gasket is designed with a gap at the  
bottom to allow for proper air circulation.  
I If any stain on the door vent trim is persistent,  
use a soft abrasive cleaner and a sponge-  
scrubber for best results.  
Do not rub or clean the door gasket—  
it has an extremely low resistance to  
abrasion.  
If you notice the gasket becoming worn,  
frayed or damaged in any way or if it  
has become displaced on the door,  
you should have it replaced.  
I Spillage of marinades, fruit juices, tomato  
sauces and basting materials containing acids  
may cause discoloration and should be wiped  
up immediately. When surface is cool, clean  
and rinse.  
I Do not use oven cleaners, cleaning powders or  
harsh abrasives on the outside of the door.
