important Safety Notice and
The California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement
Act of 1986 (Proposition 65} requires the Governor of
California to publish a list of substances known to the
State of California to cause cancer or reproductive harm,
and requires businesses to warn customers of potential
exposures to such substances.
Users of this appliance are hereby warned that when the
oven is engaged in the self-clean cycle, there may be
some low-level exposure to some of the listed substances,
including carbon monoxide. Exposure to these substances
can be minimized by properly venting the oven to the
outdoors by opening the windows and/or door in the room
where the appliance is located during the self-clean cycie.
UMPORTANT NOTUCE REGARDUNG PET BURDS: Never

Tips to Protect the
Smoothtop Surface
C_ea_ing (see page 21 for more information}
, Before first use, clean the cooktop.
, Clean your cooktop daily or after each use.This wiii 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 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.
° Never use abrasive cleansing powders or scouring pads
which wiii scratch the cooktop.
° Never use chlorine bleach, ammonia or other cleansers not
specifically recommended for use on glass-ceramic.
° Never use cooktop as a work surface or cutting board.
, Never cook food directly on the surface.
, Do not use a small pan on a large elemenL Not only does
this waste energy, but it can also result in spillovers burning
onto the cooking area which requires extra cleaning.
, Do not use non-fiat specialty items that are oversized or
uneven such as round bottom woks, rippled bottom and/or
oversized canners and griddles.
, Do not use foii or foil-type containers. Foii may melt onto
the glass, if metal melts on the cooktop, do not use. Caii an
authorized Amana Servicer.
Cookwate Recommendations
Using the right cookware can prevent many problems, such
as food taking longer to cook or achieving inconsistent
results. Proper pans will reduce cooking times, use less
energy, and cook food more evenly.
To Prevent Marks & Scratches
° Do not use glass pans. They may scratch the surface.
° Never place a trivet or wok ring between the surface and
pan. These items can mark or etch the top.
° Do not slide aluminum pans across a hot surface. The pans
may leave marks which need to be removed promptly. (See
Cleaning, page 21.}
° Make sure the surface and the pan bottom are clean before
turning on to prevent scratches.
° To prevent scratching or damage to the glass-ceramic top,
do not leave sugar, salt or fats on the cooking area. Wipe
the cooktop surface with a clean cloth or paper towel
before using.
° Never slide heavy metal pans across the surface since
these may scratch.
To Prevent Stains
, Never use a soibd dish cloth or sponge to dean the
cooktop surface. A film wiii 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.
To Prevent Other Damage
° Do not allow plastic, sugar or foods with high sugar content
to melt onto the hot cooktop. Should this happen, clean
immediately. (See Cleaning, page 21.}
° Never let a pan boil dry as this will damage the surface and
pan.
Flat Pan Tests
See if your pans are fiat.
The Ruler Test:
1. Placea ruler across the bottom of the pan.
2. Hold it up to the lighL
3. Little or no light should be visible under the ruler.
The Bubble Test:
1. Put 1 inch of water in the pan. Placeon cooktop and turn
control to High.
2. Watch the formation of the bubbles as the water heats.
Uniform bubbles mean good performance, and uneven
bubbles indicate hot spots and uneven cooking.
See "Cooking Made Simple" booklet for more information.

Canning and Oversize
All canners and large pots mast have fiat bottoms and
mast be made from heavy-gauge materials. This iscdtica[
on smoothtop surfaces. The base must not be more than
1 inch larger than the dement=
When canners and pots do not meet these standards, cooking
times may be [onger, and cooktops may be damaged,
Some canners are designed with smaHHerbases for use on
smoothtop surfaces,
When canning, use the High heat setting only until the
water comes to a boil or pressure is reached in the canner,
Reduce to the [owest heat setting that maintains the boi[ or
pressure, If the heat is not turned down, the cooktop may be
damaged,

o To prevent damage to oven door. do not attempt to open
the door when LOCK is displayed.
o Avoid touching cooktop :loor. window or oven vent area
during a clean cycle.
• Do not use commercial oven cleaners on the oven finish
or around any part of the oven. They wiii damage the
finish or parts.
The self-clean cycle uses above-normal cooking temperatures
to automatically clean the oven interior.
It is normal for flare-ups, smoking, or flaming to occur during
cleaning if the oven is heavily soiled. It is better to clean the
oven regularly rather than to wait until there is a heavy build-
up of soil in the oven.
During the cleaning process, the kitchen should bewell
ventilated to get rid of normal odors associated with cleaning.
Before Se f-C eaning
1. Turn off the oven light before cleaning. The light may burn
out during the clean cycle.
2. Remove broiler pan, all pans, and oven racks from the
oven. The oven racks will discolor and may not slide easily
after a self-clean cycle if they are not removed.
3. Clean oven frame, door frame, area outside of gasket, and
around the opening in the door gasket with a nonabrasive
cleaner such as Bon Ami* or detergent and water. The
self-cleaning process does not clean these areas. They
should be cleaned to prevent soil from baking on during
the clean cycle. (The gasket is the
seal around the oven door and --_ /_
window.} ".
a. To prevent damage, do not clean or
rub the gasket around the oven
door. The gasket is designed to
seal in heat during the clean cycle.
5. Wipe up excess grease or spillovers from the oven bottom.
This prevents excessive smoking, flare-ups or flaming
during the clean cycle.
6. Wipe up sugary and acidic spillovers such as sweet
potatoes, tomato, or milk-based sauces. Porcelain enamel
is acid-resistant, not acid-proof. The porcelain finish may
discolor if acidic spills are not wiped up before a self-clean
cycle.
