IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING
THE APPLIANCE
WARNING
• Storage In or On Appliance—Flamma-
ble materials should not be stored in
an oven or microwave, near surface
burners or elements, or in the stor-
age or warmer drawer (if equipped).
This includes paper, plastic, and cloth
items, such as cookbooks, plastic
ware, and towels, as well as flammable
liquids. Do not store explosives, such
as aerosol cans, on or near the appli-
ance.
WARNING
• Do not leave children alone - Children
should not be left alone or unattend-
ed in the area where appliance is in
use. They should never be allowed to
sit or stand on any part of the appli-
ance, including the storage drawer,
lower broiler drawer, warmer drawer,
or lower double oven.
• Do not store items of interest to chil-
dren in the cabinets above the appli-
ance or on the backguards of ranges.
Children climbing on or near the ap-
pliance to reach items could be seri-
ously injured.
• Do not allow children to climb or play
around the appliance. The weight of
a child on an open oven door may
cause the appliance to tip, resulting in
serious burns or other injury. An open
drawer when hot may cause burns.
• Stepping, leaning, or sitting on the
door or drawers of this appliance
can result in serious injuries and also
cause damage to the appliance.
• Never cover any slots, holes or pas-
sages in the oven bottom or cover
and entire rack with materials such
as aluminum foil. Aluminum foil lin-
ings may also trap heat, causing a fire
hazard.
• Do not use oven or warmer drawer (if
equipped) for storage.
• Never use your appliance as a space
heater to heat or warm the room.
Doing so may result in carbon monox-
ide poisoning and overheating of the
appliance.
See the installation instructions packaged
with this appliance for complete installa-
tion and grounding instructions.

6IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
CAUTION
• When heating fat or grease, watch it
closely. Grease may catch fire if it be-
comes too hot.
• Do not use water or flour on grease
fires. Smother fire or flame or use dry
chemical or foam-type extinguisher.
Cover the fire with a pan lid or use
baking soda.
• Use dry potholders. Moist or damp
potholders on hot surfaces may result
in burns from steam. Do not let pot-
holders touch hot cooking areas. Do
not use towels or other bulky cloths.
• Do not heat unopened food contain-
ers - Build-up of pressure may cause
container to burst and result in injury.
• Wear proper apparel - Loose-fitting
or hanging garments should never be
worn while using the appliance. Do
not let clothing or other flammable
materials contact hot surfaces.
• Do not touch surface burners or ele-
ments, areas near these burners or el-
ements, interior surfaces of the oven,
or the warmer drawer (if equipped).
Surface burners and elements may be
hot even though they appear cool.
• Areas near surface burners and ele-
ments may become hot enough to
cause burns. During and after use,
do not touch, or let clothing or oth-
er flammable materials touch these
areas until they are cool. These areas
may include the cooktop, surfaces
facing the cooktop, oven vent areas,
oven door, and oven window.
CAUTION
• Do not attempt to operate the ap-
pliance during a power failure. If the
power fails, always turn o the appli-
ance. If the appliance is not turned
o and the power resumes, electric
surface elements may resume opera-
tion when power is restored. Once the
power resumes, reset the clock and
the oven function.
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING
YOUR INDUCTION COOKTOP
CAUTION
• Persons with a pacemaker or similar
medical device should exercise cau-
tion using or standing near an induc-
tion unit while it is in operation, as the
electromagnetic field may aect the
working of the pacemaker or similar
medical device. It would be advisable
to consult your doctor or the pace-
maker or similar medical device man-
ufacturer about your particular situa-
tion.
• Do not place metallic objects such as
knives, forks spoons, and lids on the
cooktop surface, since they can get
hot.
Know which knob or key controls each
surface heating area. Place cookware with
food on the cooking area before turning it
on. Turn the cooking area o before re-
moving the cookware.
Cookware handles should be turned in-
ward and not extend over adjacent surface
elements. — To reduce the risk of burns,
ignition of flammable materials, and spill-
age due to unintentional contact with the
utensil, the handle of the cookware should
be positioned so that it is turned inward,

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR GLASS
AND CERAMIC COOKTOPS
Do Not Clean or Operate a Broken Cook-
top. If cooktop should break, cleaning
solutions and spillovers may penetrate the
broken cooktop and create a risk of elec-
tric shock. Contact a qualified technician
immediately.
Clean cooktop glass 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
harmful fumes if applied to a hot surface.
Avoid scratching the cooktop glass with
sharp objects.
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING
YOUR OVEN
Protective liners—Do not use aluminum
foil, aftermarket oven liners, or any other
materials or devices to line oven bottom,
oven racks, or any other part of the appli-
ance. Only use aluminum as recommend-
ed for baking, such as lining cookware or
as a cover placed on food. Any other use
of protective liners or aluminum foil may
result in a risk of electric shock or fire or a
short circuit.
Use care when opening oven door, lower
oven door, or warmer drawer (some mod-
els). Stand to the side of the appliance
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.
Touching surfaces in this area when the
oven is on may cause severe burns. Do not
place plastic or heat-sensitive items on or
near the oven vent. These items can 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, do not let potholder contact hot
burner or element in oven. Use potholders
and grasp the rack with both hands to re-
position. Remove all cookware and utensils
before moving the rack.
Do not use a broiler pan without its insert.
Broiler pans and inserts allow dripping fat
to drain away from the high heat of the
broiler. Do not cover the broiler insert with
aluminum foil; exposed fat and grease
could ignite.
Do not cook food on the oven bottom. Al-
ways cook in proper cookware and always
use the oven racks.
and does not extend over other cooking
areas.
Glazed cooking utensils — Only certain
types of cookware are suitable for cook
top service and must be magnetic to work
properly on the induction zones. Check
the manufacturer’s recommendations for
cook top use to ensure that the cookware
is compatible with induction cooking.
Improper cookware may break due to
sudden changes in temperature. Check the
cookware manufacturer’s recommenda-
tions for cooktop use.
Use proper pan size - This appliance is
equipped with one or more surface units
of dierent sizes. Select cookware with flat
bottoms that match the surface unit size.
Using the proper cookware on the cooking
area will improve eciency.
Never leave surface elements unattend-
ed. Boil-overs may cause smoking and
greasy spills that may ignite. A pan that
has boiled dry could be damaged and may
damage the cooktop.
When you are flaming foods under a venti-
lating hood, turn on the fan.

10 COOKING RECOMMENDATIONS
Bakeware
The material of bakeware aects how evenly and quickly it transfers heat from the pan to the food.
Material Attributes Recommendation
Shiny metal bakeware Shiny, aluminum, and non-coat-
ed bakeware is the best for even
heating. It is suitable for all baked
goods.
Recommended cooking temperatures
and times are based on shiny metal
bakeware.
Dark metal bakeware Dark bakeware cooks hotter than
shiny bakeware.
Reduce the cooking temperature by
25° F (13-14° C) when using dark bake-
ware.
Glass bakeware Glass bakeware cooks hotter
than shiny bakeware.
Glass is convenient, as the same
piece of bakeware can be used
for cooking, serving, and storing
food.
Reduce the cooking temperature by
25° F (13-14° C) when using glass bake-
ware.
Insulated bakeware Insulated bakeware cooks cooler
than shiny bakeware.
Insulated bakeware is designed
for baking in gas ovens.
Reduce the cooking temperature by
25° F (13-14° C) when using glass bake-
ware.
