WARNING ANTI-TIP DEVICE  
All ranges can tip and injury could result.  
To prevent accidental tipping of the range, attach it to the  
wall and floor by installing the Anti-Tip device supplied.  
OpeaigInstr  
To check if the device is installed and engaged properly,  
remove the kick panel or storage drawer and inspect the  
rear leveling leg. Make sure it fits securely into the slot.  
uctions  
If you pull the range out from the wall for any reason,  
make sure the device is properly engaged when you  
push the range back against the wall. If it is not, there is  
a possible risk of the range tipping over and causing  
injury if you or a child stand, sit or lean on an open  
door.  
laioInstr  
Please refer to the Anti-Tip device information in this  
manual. Failure to take this precaution could result in  
tipping of the range and injury.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS  
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions  
should be followed, including the following:  
Be sure your appliance  
is properly installed  
and grounded by a  
qualified technician in  
accordance with the  
provided installation  
instructions.  
Do not attempt to  
repair or replace any  
part of your range  
unless it is specifically  
recommended in this  
manual. All other  
servicing should be  
referred to a qualified  
technician.  
Do not allow anyone  
to climb, stand or hang  
on the door, storage  
drawer or cooktop.  
They could damage the  
range and even tip it  
over, causing severe  
personal injury.  
utcions  
liaoInstr  
Do not store flammable  
materials in an oven or  
near the cooktop.  
utcions  
CAUTION: Items of  
interest to children  
should not be stored in  
cabinets above a range  
or on the backsplash  
of a range—children  
climbing on the range  
to reach items could be  
seriously injured.  
T

ulbeshotingT  
Before performing any  
service, disconnect the  
range power supply at  
the household  
distribution panel by  
removing the fuse or  
switching off the circuit  
breaker.  
Never wear loose-fitting  
or hanging garments  
while using the  
isp  
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.  
Do not leave children  
alone—children should  
not be left alone or

Differences Between Halogen and Radiant Units  
Halogen units have radiant coils in the center that do not glow as brightly as the  
outer halogen coils.  
SaetyInfor  
Some cooktops have both radiant and halogen surface units. This is  
how they differ.  
Halogen units are much brighter than the radiant units. Radiant units have a  
uctions  
dull red glow.  
Halogen units hum louder than radiant units when they are first turned on.  
Halogen and radiant units cycle on and off frequently. This is normal. You will  
notice the cycling more on the halogen units because of their brightness.  
OpeaigInstr  
Halogen units click when they cycle on and off. Radiant units do not. This is  
due to the different switches used on halogen units.

Radiant coils take about 10 seconds longer to glow than halogen units.

Preheating and Pan Placement  
Preheat the oven if the recipe calls for it. To preheat, set the oven  
at the correct temperature. Preheating is necessary for good results  
when baking cakes, cookies, pastry and breads.  
OepaigInstr  
Baking results will be better if baking pans are centered as much as  
possible. Pans should not touch each other or the walls of the oven.  
If you need to use two shelves, stagger the pans so one is not directly  
above the other.  
utcions  
Aluminum Foil  
Never entirely cover a shelf with aluminum foil. This will  
disturb the heat circulation and result in poor baking.  
liaoInstr  
A smaller sheet of foil may be used to catch a spillover by  
placing it on a lower shelf several inches below the food.  
Aluminum foil may be used to  
catch a spillover.  
You can also 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.

ips  
heated air seals in juices quickly for a moist and tender  
product while, at the same time, creating a rich golden  
brown exterior.  
Roasts or poultry should be cooked on the lowest  
shelf position (A) on a shelf.  
When you are convection roasting it is important that  
you use the broiler pan and grid and the special roasting  
rack for best convection roasting results. The pan is used  
to catch grease spills and the grid is used to prevent  
grease spatters. Place the meat on the special roasting  
rack. The rack holds the meat. The rack allows the  
heated air to circulate under the meat and increase  
browning on the underside of the meat or poultry.

2 When baking, reduce baking temperature by 25°F.

Cookware for Convection Cooking  
Before using your convection oven, check to see if your cookware  
leaves room for air circulation in the oven. If you are baking with  
several pans, leave space between them. Also, be sure the pans do  
not touch each other or the walls of the oven.

Metal and Glass  
isp  
Any type of cookware will work in your convection oven.  
However, metal pans heat the fastest and are recommended  
for convection baking.  
CsutomSer  
Darkened or matte-finished pans will bake faster than shiny pans.  
Glass or ceramic pans cook more slowly.  
When baking cookies, you will get the best results if you use a flat  
cookie sheet instead of a pan with low sides.

For recipes like oven-baked chicken, use a pan with low sides. Hot

Flooring Under the Range  
SaetyInfor  
Your range, like many other household items, is heavy and can settle into soft floor coverings

When moving the range on this type of flooring, it should be installed on a  
1/4thick sheet of plywood (or similar material) as follows:

When the floor covering ends at the front of the range, the area that the range  
will rest on should be built up with plywood to the same level or higher than the  
floor covering. This will allow the range to be moved for cleaning or servicing.  
Prepare for Electrical Connection

OpeaigInstr  
Effective January 1, 1996 the National Electric Code requires that  
new construction (not existing) utilize a 4-conductor connection to an  
electric range.  
uctions  
When installing an electric range in new construction follow Steps 3  
and 5 for 4-wire connection.  
Use only a 3-conductor or a 4-conductor UL-listed range cord. These cords may  
be provided with ring terminals on wire and a strain relief device.  
A range cord rated at 40 amps with 125/250 minimum volt range is required.  
A 50 amp range cord is not recommended but if used, it should be marked for  
use with nominal 1 8diameter connection openings. Care should be taken to  
laioInstr

center the cable and strain relief within the knockout hole to keep the edge from

Leveling the Range

laioInstr  
The range must be level. Leveling feet are located at each corner of the base of  
the range. Remove the storage drawer or kick panel (depending on your model)  
and using channel locks, rotate the leveling feet in and out as required to level  
the range. (For instructions on how to remove and replace the storage drawer or  
the kick panel, see the Care and cleaning of the range section.)  
ips  
On some models, there are plastic covers which may be removed for easy  
adjustment (just squeeze and pull).  
ubleshotingT  
One of the rear leveling feet will engage the Anti-Tip bracket (allow for some side  
to side adjustment). Allow a minimum clearance of 1/8between the range and  
the leveling foot that is to be installed into the Anti-Tip bracket.  
r
T
Check the range for proper installation into the Anti-Tip bracket by removing the  
kick panel or storage drawer and inspecting the rear leveling leg. Make sure it fits  
securely into the slot.

10 Final Check  
Be sure all range controls are in the OFF position before leaving
