IMPORTANTINSTRUCTIONS FORUSINGYOUR
COOKTOP
• Know which knob controls each surface heating unit. Place a
pan of food on the unit before turning it on, and turn the unit off
before removing the pan.
• Use Proper Pan Size—This appliance is equipped with one or
more surface units of different sizes. Select utensils having flat
bottoms large enough to cover the surface unit heating element.
The use of undersized utensils will expose a portion of the
heating element to direct contact and may result in ignition of
clothing. Proper relationship of utensil to element will also
improve efficiency.
• UtensilHandlesShouldBe Turned Inward and NotExtendOver
AdjacentSurface Elements—To reducethe risk ofburns, ignition
of flammable materials, and spillage due to unintentional contact
with the utensil, the handle of the utensil should be positioned so
that it is turned inward, and does not extend over adjacent surface
units.
• Never Leave Surface Elements Unattended at High Heat
Settings—Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers that
may ignite, or a pan that has boiled dry may melt.
• Do Not Immerse or Soak Removable Heating Elements—
Heating elements should never be immersed in water. Heating
elements clean themselves during normal operation.
• Glazed Cooking Utensils—Only certain types of glass, glass/
ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed utensils are
suitable for cook top service without breaking due to the sudden
change in temperature. Check the manufacturer’s
recommendations for cook top use.
• When flaming foods under a ventilating hood, turn the fan on.
IMPORTANTINSTRUCTIONS FORUSINGYOUR
OVEN
• Use Care When Opening Oven Door or Warmer Drawer/Bake-
n-Warm™Double Oven (if equipped)—Stand to the side of the
range when opening the door of a hot oven. Let hot air or steam
escape before you remove or replace food in the oven.
• Keep Oven Vent Ducts Unobstructed. The oven vent is located
under the left rear surface element if your model is equipped with
coil elements. The oven vent is located below the backguard for
models equipped with ceramic-glass cook tops. Touching the
surfaces in this area when the oven is operating may cause
severe burns. Also, do not place plastic or heat-sensitive items
on or near the oven vent. These items could melt or ignite.
• Placement of Oven Racks. Always place oven racks in desired
location while oven is cool. If rack must be moved while oven is
hot use extreme caution. Use potholders and grasp the rack with
both hands to reposition. Do not let potholders contact the hot
heating elements in the oven. Remove all utensils from the rack
before moving.
• Donot usethe broiler pan without its insert. The broiler pan and
its insert allow dripping fat to drain and be kept away from the high
heat of the broiler.
• Donot coverthe broilerinsert with aluminum foil. Exposed fat
and grease could ignite.
• Protective Liners—Do not use aluminum foil to line the oven
bottom. Only use aluminum foil as recommended in this manual.
Improper installation of these liners may result in risk of electric
shock, or fire.
SELF CLEANING OVENS
• Clean in the self-cleaning cycle only the parts listed in this Use & Care Manual. Before self cleaning the oven, remove the broiler
pan and any utensils or foods from the 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.
• Do Not Clean Door Gasket—The door gasket is essential for a good seal. Care should be taken not to rub, damage or move the gasket.
•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.
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR CLEANING YOUR RANGE
• Clean the range regularly to keep all parts free of grease that could catch fire. Pay particular attention to the area underneath each
surface element. Do not allow grease to accumulate.
• Kitchen cleaners and aerosols—Always follow the manufacturer’s recommended directions for use. Be aware that excess
residue from cleaners and aerosols may ignite causing damage and injury.
• Clean Ventilating Hoods Frequently—Grease should not be allowed to accumulate on the hood or filter. Follow manufacturer’s
instructions for cleaning.
FOR CERAMIC-GLASS COOK TOP MODELS
• Do Not Cook on Broken Cook Top—If cook top should break, cleaning solutions and spillovers may penetrate the broken cook top
and create a risk of electric shock. Contact a qualified technician immediately.
• Clean Cook Top with Caution—If a wet sponge or cloth is used to wipe spills on a hot cooking area, be careful to avoid a steam burn.
Some cleaners can produce noxious fumes if applied to a hot surface.

Before Setting Oven Controls
Oven Vent Location
The oven vent is located under the left side of the control panel
(See Fig. 1). When the oven is on, warm air passes through the vent.
This venting is necessary for proper air circulation in the oven and good
baking results. DO NOT BLOCK OVEN VENT.
Arranging Oven Racks & Roasting Shelf
ALWAYS ARRANGE OVEN RACKS WHEN THE OVEN IS COOL
(PRIOR TO OPERATING THE OVEN). Always use oven mitts when
using the oven.

For best air circulation and baking
results allow 2-4" (5-10 cm) around
the cookware for proper air
circulation and be sure pans and
cookware do not touch each other,
the oven door, sides or back of the
oven cavity. The hot air must be able
to circulate around the pans and
cookware in the oven for even heat
to reach around the food.
Air Circulation in the Oven
Baking Layer Cakes with 1 or 2 Oven Racks
For best results when baking cakes using 2 oven racks, place cookware on rack positions 3 & 6 (See Fig. 7). For best
results when using a single Flat Oven Rack, place cookware on rack position 4 (See Fig. 8).
Types of Oven Racks & Roasting Shelf
Your range may be equipped with one or more of
the oven rack types shown; Flat Oven Rack
(Fig. 5) and Roasting Shelf (Fig. 6; some
models). To maximize cooking space the
Roasting Shelf should be used in the lowest rack
position to roast large cuts of meat and poultry
(See Fig. 2).
Place Roasting Shelf with care in rack position 7 (See Fig. 2). Be sure the Roasting Shelf is level and the front end of the
shelf rests over the front ends of the oven rack glides on both sides of the oven interior (See Figs. 3 & 4).

About the Ceramic Glass Cooktop
The ceramic cooktop has radiant surface
elements located below the surface of the glass.
The design of the ceramic cooktop outlines the
area of the surface element underneath. Make
sure the diameter of the pan matches the
diameter of the element outline on the cooktop
(See Fig 1). Heat is transferred up through the
surface of the cooktop to the cookware. Only
flat-bottom cookware should be used. The type
and size of cookware, the number of surface
elements in use and the settings, are all factors
that will affect the amount of heat that will spread
to areas beyond the surface elements. The
areas surrounding the elements may become
hot enough to cause burns.
About the Radiant Surface Elements
The element temperature rises gradually and
evenly. As the temperature rises, the element
will glow red. To maintain the selected setting,
the element will cycle on and off. The heating
element retains enough heat to provide a uniform
and consistent heat during the off cycle. For
efficient cooking, turn off the element several
minutes before cooking is complete. This will
allow residual heat to complete the cooking
process.
Your range is equipped with radiant surface
burners with different wattage ratings. The ability
to heat food quicker and in larger volumes
increases as the element wattage increases.
NOTE: Please read detailed instructions for
ceramic glass cooktop cleaning in the Care &
Cleaning section and Before You Call
checklist sections of this Use and Care Manual.
NOTE: Radiant elements have a limiter that allows the element to cycle
ON and OFF, even at the HI setting. This helps to prevent damage to
the ceramic cooktop. Cycling at the HI setting is normal and can occur
if the cookware is too small for the radiant element or if the cookware
bottom is not flat (Refer to page 13 for using correct cookware
instructions with the cooktop).

Setting Surface Controls
Radiant surface elements may appear to have
cooled after they have been turned off. The glass surface may
still be hot and burns may occur if the glass surface is
touched before it has cooled sufficiently.
Do not place plastic items such as salt and
pepper shakers, spoon holders or plastic wrappings on
top of the range when it is in use. These items could melt
or ignite. Potholders, towels or wooden spoons could catch fire
if placed too close to the surface elements.
Note: The size and type of cookware used will influence the
setting needed for best cooking results.
The Electronic Surface Element Control (ESEC)
The Electronic Surface Element Control (“ESEC”) feature
includes 4 digital display windows. The ESEC feature provides
a numeric digital setting for 4 of the radiant surface element
positions on the cooktop. These settings work the same way
as normal knob setting indicators work except the settings are
displayed in digital windows (Figs. 1 thru 4).
The available ESEC Display Settings
The ESEC control provides various heat levels from Hi (Fig. 2)
to Lo (Fig. 4) and OFF (Fig. 1).
Use the chart (Fig. 5) to determine the correct setting for the
kind of food you are preparing. The Simmer settings are used
to simmer and keep larger quantities of foods warm such as
stews and soups. The lower Simmer settings are ideal for
delicate foods and melting chocolate or butter. Fig. 1 Fig. 2

Setting Surface Controls
ESEC Hot Element Indicator Message (HE)
After using any of the single, dual or Bridge radiant element positions the cooktop will
become very hot. Even after turning the control knob to OFF, the cooktop will remain hot for
some time. The ESEC control monitors the temperature of the cooktop and displays the
message “HE” (hot element) warning when the cooktop is still too hot to touch (See Fig.1). If
the HE message appears in the window, the control can still be turned on again for use.
ESEC Error Indicator Message (Er)
An error message will be displayed (flashing “Er”) at power up (or after a power failure) if ANY
of the surface control knobs were left in the ON positions. If a power failure should occur, be
sure to set all of the 4 surface control knobs to the OFF position (See Fig. 2). This will reset
the surface controls.
Be sure to reset the clock (See page 15). Once the surface controls have been set to the
OFF positions and the clock has been set with the correct time of day, the surface controls
should return to normal operation. If the surface controls do not function and the “Er”
message remains in any display after following these procedures, contact an authorized
servicerfor assistance.
Some models have single radiant surface elements at 2 locations; the right rear (Fig. 5) and
left rear (Fig. 6) element positions. The BRIDGE (some models) element position can also be
used as a single element (See Bridge Element Operating Instructions on pages 10-11).
1. Place correctly sized cookware on the radiant surface
element.
2. Push in and turn the surface control knob in either direction
to the desired setting using the ESEC digital display
window for the desired setting (Fig. 4). Turn (do not push)
the knob to adjust the setting if desired. Start most cooking
operations on a higher setting and then turn to a lower
setting to finish cooking. Each surface element provides a
constant amount of heat at each setting. A glowing red
surface heating area extending beyond the bottom edge of
the cookware indicates the cookware is too small for the
surfaceheating area.
3. When cooking has completed, turn the surface control
knob to OFF before removing the cookware. Note: The HE
message will appear after turning the control knob to OFF if
the cooktop is still hot and will remain on until the heating
surface area has cooled sufficiently.
Note: See page 8, Fig. 5 for recommended control settings.
To Operate the Single Elements (some models):
ESEC Lockout Feature ( - - )
The Self-Clean feature will not operate whenever a radiant surface element is ON. Conversely
the ESEC feature will not operate during the Self-Clean cycle. Whenever the ESEC Lockout
feature is active, “ - - ” may appear in any display window (See Fig. 3). If any of the surface
elements are still hot during active Lockout, “HE” will appear in the window instead of the “- -”
message.
Radiant surface elements may appear to have cooled after they have been
turned off. The glass surface may still be hot and burns may occur if the glass surface is
touched before it has cooled sufficiently.

To Operate the Dual Element(s):
1. Place correctly sized cookware on the dual surface
element.
2. Push in and turn the control knob counterclockwise (See
Fig. 2) for smaller cookware or clockwise (See Fig. 5) for
largercookware.
3. Use the ESEC digital display window for the desired
setting. Turn (do not push) the knob to adjust the setting if
needed. Start most cooking operations on a higher setting
and then turn to a lower setting to finish cooking. Each
surface element provides a constant amount of heat at
each setting. A glowing red surface heating area extending
beyond the bottom edge of the cookware indicates the
cookware is too small for the surface heating area.
4. When cooking has completed, turn the surface control
knob to OFF before removing the cookware. Note: The HE
message will appear after turning the control knob to OFF
if the cooktop is still hot and will remain on until the radiant
heating surface area has cooled sufficiently. Note: See
page 8, Fig. 5 for recommended control settings.
The Dual Radiant Elements (all models)
The cooktop is equipped with one or more dual radiant surface
elements. Symbols on the control panel (See Fig. 4) are used
to indicate which coil of the dual radiant element will heat. The
symbol shown in Fig. 1 indicates that only the inner coil will
heat. The symbol shown in Fig. 4 indicates that both inner and
outer coils will heat . You may switch from either coil setting at
any time during cooking.
The Bridge Radiant Element (some models)
Some ceramic cooktops are equipped with a “BRIDGE”
surface element located at the left front and middle (See
Fig. 10) positions. The Bridge can be used when cooking
with rectangular (like a griddle) or oval shaped cookware
(Fig. 10). The element will maintain an even temperature
setting across both portions of the Bridge. If needed for
normal cookware, the Bridge element can work like a
single element without the Bridge (See Fig. 8).
Bridge element operation symbols are located on the
control panel on each side of the Bridge element control
knob. These symbols indicate the direction to turn the
control knob when operating the Bridge element. The
symbol in Fig. 7 indicates that only the single portion of
the Bridge element will heat (See Fig. 8). The symbol in
Fig. 9 indicates that both the single and Bridge portions
of the element will heat together (Fig. 10). You may
switch from either of these settings at any time during
cooking with the Bridge element.
Radiant surface elements may appear to have
cooled after they have been turned off. The glass surface may
still be hot and burns may occur if the glass surface is
touched before it has cooled sufficiently.

Setting Surface Controls
To Operate the Bridge Element (some models):
1. Place correctly sized cookware on the Bridge surface
element.
2. Push in and turn the control knob counterclockwise (See
Figs. 1 & 2) to heat the portion of the Bridge element for
normal shaped cookware or clockwise (See Figs. 3 & 4) for
largeror rectangular shaped cookware.
3. Use the ESEC digital display window for the desired
setting. Turn (do not push) the knob to adjust the setting if
needed. Start most cooking operations on a higher setting
and then turn to a lower setting to finish cooking. Each
surface element provides a constant amount of heat at
each setting. A glowing red surface heating area extending
beyond the bottom edge of the cookware indicates the
cookware is too small. Please note that not all cookware
will fit the Bridge element correctly.
4. When cooking has completed, turn the surface control
knob to OFF before removing the cookware. The HE
message will appear in the display after turning the control
knob to OFF if the cooktop is still hot and will remain on
until the radiant heating surface area has cooled
sufficiently. Note: See page 8, Fig. 5 for recommended
control settings.
The BRIDGE element may also be used in combination with the
left rear single element. Because these elements have 2
different controls, one element can be used to cook while the
other element may be used to keep food warm (See Fig. 5).
Radiant surface elements may appear to have
cooled after they have been turned off. The glass surface may
still be hot and burns may occur if the glass surface is
touched before it has cooled sufficiently.

Operating the Warming Zone (some models)
The purpose of the Warming Zone is to keep hot cooked foods at serving temperature. Use the Warming Zone to keep
cooked foods hot such as; vegetables, gravies, casseroles, soups, stews, breads, pastries and oven-safe dinner plates.
Always start with hot food. It is not recommended to heat cold food on the Warming Zone.
All food placed on the Warming Zone should be covered with a lid or aluminum foil to
maintain quality. For best results, when warming pastries or breads, the cover should have
an opening to allow moisture to escape. Do not use plastic wrap to cover food. Plastic
may melt onto the surface and be very difficult to clean. Use only plates, utensils and
cookware recommended for oven and cooktop use on the Warming Zone.
Always use pot holders or oven mitts when removing food from the Warming
Zone as cookware and plates will be hot.
To Set the Warming Zone Control (some models):
1. To set the control, push in and turn the knob. The On indicator light will come on (See
Figs. 1 and 2). The temperatures are approximate, and are designated by HI, MED and
LO. However, the control can be set at any position between HI and LO for different levels
ofheating (Fig.1).
2. When done, turn the control to OFF. The Warming Zone Hot surface indicator light
will remain on until the Warming Zone cools to a moderate level (See Figs. 1 & 2).
Temperature Selection
Refer to the table for recommended Warming Zone food settings (Fig. 3). If a particular food is
not listed, start with the medium level, and adjust as needed. Most foods can be kept at
serving temperatures by using the medium level.
The Warming Zone will not glow red when it is hot, but becomes hot enough to
cause burns. Avoid placing hands on or near the Warming Zone until the Warming Zone Hot
surface indicator light is off.

Surface Cooking
Cookware Material Types
The cookware material determines how evenly and quickly heat is transferred from the surface element to the pan bottom.
The most popular materials available are:
ALUMINUM - Excellent heat conductor. Some types of food will cause it to darken (Anodized aluminum cookware resists
staining & pitting). If aluminum pans slide across the ceramic cooktop, they may leave metal marks which will resemble
scratches. Remove these marks immediately.
COPPER - Excellent heat conductor but discolors easily. May leave metal marks on ceramic glass (see Aluminum above).
STAINLESS STEEL - Slow heat conductor with uneven cooking results. Is durable, easy to clean and resists staining.
CAST IRON - A poor heat conductor however will retain heat very well. Cooks evenly once cooking temperature is reached.
Not recommended for use on ceramic cooktops.
PORCELAIN-ENAMEL on METAL - Heating characteristics will vary depending on base material. Porcelain-enamel coating
must be smooth to avoid scratching ceramic cooktops.
GLASS - Slow heat conductor. Not recommended for ceramic cooktop surfaces because it may scratch the glass.
Using proper cookware
The size and type of cookware used will influence the
setting needed for best cooking results. Cookware
should have flat bottoms that make good contact with
the entire surface heating element (See Fig. 2). Check
for flatness by rotating a ruler across the bottom of the
cookware (See Fig. 1).
Be sure to follow the
recommendationsfor
using proper
cookware as
illustrated.
