IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock,
injury to persons, or damage when using the range, follow
basic precautions, including the following:
■ WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF TIPPING OF
THE RANGE, THE RANGE MUST BE SECURED BY
PROPERLY INSTALLED ANTI-TIP DEVICES. TO CHECK
IF THE DEVICES ARE INSTALLED PROPERLY, SLIDE
RANGE FORWARD, LOOK FOR ANTI-TIP BRACKET
SECURELY ATTACHED TO FLOOR, AND SLIDE RANGE
BACK SO REAR RANGE FOOT IS UNDER ANTI-TIP
BRACKET.
■ CAUTION: Do not store items of interest to children in
cabinets above a range or on the backguard of a range –
children climbing on the range to reach items could be
seriously injured.
■ Proper Installation – Be sure the range is properly installed
and grounded by a qualified technician.
■ Never Use the Range for Warming or Heating the Room.
■ Do Not Leave Children Alone – Children should not be left
alone or unattended in area where the range is in use.
They should never be allowed to sit or stand on any part of
the range.
■ Wear Proper Apparel – Loose-fitting or hanging garments
should never be worn while using the range.
■ User Servicing – Do not repair or replace any part of the
range unless specifically recommended in the manual. All
other servicing should be referred to a qualified technician.
■ Storage in or on the Range – Flammable materials should
not be stored in an oven or near surface units.
■ Do Not Use Water on Grease Fires – Smother fire or flame
or use dry chemical or foam-type extinguisher.
■ Use Only Dry Potholders – Moist or damp potholders on
hot surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do not let
potholder touch hot heating elements. Do not use a towel
or other bulky cloth.
■ DO NOT TOUCH SURFACE UNITS OR AREAS NEAR
UNITS – Surface units may be hot even though they are
dark in color. Areas near surface units may become hot
enough to cause burns. During and after use, do not touch,
or let clothing or other flammable materials contact surface
units or areas near units until they have had sufficient time
to cool. Among those areas are the cooktop and surfaces
facing the cooktop.
■ Use Proper Pan Size – The range is equipped with one or
more surface units of different size. 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
burner will also improve efficiency.
■ Never Leave Surface Units Unattended at High Heat
Settings – Boilover causes smoking and greasy spillovers
that may ignite.
■ Make Sure Reflector Pans or Drip Bowls Are in Place –
Absence of these pans or bowls during cooking may
subject wiring or components underneath to damage.
■ Protective Liners – Do not use aluminum foil to line surface
unit drip bowls or oven bottoms, except as suggested in
the manual. Improper installation of these liners may result
in a risk of electric shock, or fire.
■ Glazed Cooking Utensils – Only certain types of glass,
glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed
utensils are suitable for range-top service without breaking
due to the sudden change in temperature.
■ Utensil Handles Should Be Turned Inward and Not Extend
Over Adjacent Surface Units – To reduce the risk of burns,
ignition of flammable materials, and spillage due to
unintentional contact with the utensil, the handle of a
utensil should be positioned so that it is turned inward, and
does not extend over adjacent surface units.
■ Do Not Soak Removable Heating Elements – Heating
elements should never be immersed in water.
■ Do Not Cook on Broken Cooktop – If cooktop should
break, cleaning solutions and spillovers may penetrate the
broken cooktop and create a risk of electric shock. Contact
a qualified technician immediately.
■ Clean Cooktop With Caution – If a wet sponge or cloth is
used to wipe spills on a hot cooking area, be careful to
avoid steam burn. Some cleaners can produce noxious
fumes if applied to a hot surface.
■ Use Care When Opening Door – Let hot air or steam
escape before removing or replacing food.
■ Do Not Heat Unopened Food Containers – Build-up of
pressure may cause container to burst and result in injury.
■ Keep Oven Vent Ducts Unobstructed.
■ 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 heating
element in oven.
■ DO NOT TOUCH HEATING ELEMENTS OR INTERIOR
SURFACES OF OVEN – Heating elements may be hot even
though they are dark in color. Interior surfaces of an oven
become hot enough to cause burns. During and after use,
do not touch, or let clothing or other flammable materials
contact heating elements or interior surfaces of oven until
they have had sufficient time to cool. Other surfaces of the
appliance may become hot enough to cause burns – among
these surfaces are oven vent openings and surfaces near
these openings, oven doors, and windows of oven doors.
For self-cleaning ranges –
■ 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.
■ 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.
■ Clean Only Parts Listed in Manual.
■ Before Self-Cleaning the Oven – Remove broiler pan and
other utensils.
For units with ventilating hood –
■ Clean Ventilating Hoods Frequently – Grease should not
be allowed to accumulate on hood or filter.
■ When flambeing foods under the hood, turn the fan on.

COOKTOP USE
Cooktop Controls
The control knobs can be set to anywhere between HI and LO.
Push in and turn to setting. On some models, the surface cooking
area locator shows which element is turned on. Use the following
chart as a guide when setting heat levels.
Coil Elements and Burner Bowls
(on some models)
Coil elements should be level for optimal cooking results. Burner
bowls, when clean, reflect heat back to the cookware. They also
help catch spills.
Cookware should not extend more than ½" (1.3 cm) over the coil
element. If cookware is uneven or too large, it can produce
excess heat, causing the burner bowl to change color. For more
information, see the “General Cleaning” section.
NOTE: Before removing or replacing coil elements and burner
bowls, make sure they are cool and the control knobs are in the
Off position.
To Remove:
1. Push in the edge of coil element toward the receptacle. Then
lift it enough to clear the burner bowl.
2. Pull the coil element straight away from the receptacle.
3. Lift out the burner bowl.
To Replace:
1. Line up openings in the burner bowl with the coil element
receptacle.
2. Holding the coil element as level as possible, slowly push the
coil element terminal into the receptacle.
3. When the terminal is pushed into the receptacle as far as it
will go, push down the edge of the coil element opposite the
receptacle.

Home Canning
When canning for long periods, alternate the use of surface
cooking areas, elements or surface burners between batches.
This allows time for the most recently used areas to cool.
■Center the canner on the grate or largest surface cooking
area or element. On electric cooktops, canners should not
extend more than ½" (1.3 cm) beyond the surface cooking
area or element.
■Do not place canner on two surface cooking areas, elements
or surface burners at the same time.
■On ceramic glass models, use only flat-bottomed canners.
■On coil element models, the installation of a Canning Unit Kit
is recommended. If a kit is not installed, the life of the coil
element will be shortened. See back cover for instructions on
how to order.
■For more information, contact your local agricultural
department. Companies that manufacture home canning
products can also offer assistance.
Cookware
IMPORTANT: Do not leave empty cookware on a hot surface
cooking area, element or surface burner.
Ideal cookware should have a flat bottom, straight sides and a
well-fitting lid, and the material should be of medium-to-heavy
thickness.
Rough finishes may scratch the cooktop or grates. Aluminum and
copper may be used as a core or base in cookware. However,
when used as a base they can leave permanent marks on the
cooktop or grates.
Cookware material is a factor in how quickly and evenly heat is
transferred, which affects cooking results. A nonstick finish has
the same characteristics as its base material. For example,
aluminum cookware with a nonstick finish will take on the
properties of aluminum.
Cookware with nonstick surfaces should not be used under the
broiler.
Use the following chart as a guide for cookware material
characteristics.
ELECTRONIC OVEN CONTROL
Display
When power is first supplied to the appliance, everything on the
display will light up for 5 seconds. Then, the time of day and “PF”
will appear on the display.
If “PF” appears at any other time, a power failure has occurred.
Reset the clock. See “Clock” section.
When the oven is not in use, the display will show the time of day.

When the Timer reaches zero, the display will show “End”
and four 1-second tones will sound.
To Cancel:
Press TIMER twice in the Timer mode.
Oven Temperature Control
IMPORTANT: Do not use a thermometer to measure oven
temperature because opening the oven door and element or
burner cycling may give incorrect readings.
The oven provides accurate temperatures; however, it may cook
faster or slower than your previous oven, so the temperature
calibration can be adjusted. It can be changed in Fahrenheit or
Celsius.
A minus sign means the oven will be cooler by the displayed
amount. The absence of a minus sign means the oven will be
warmer by the displayed amount. Use the following chart as a
guide.
To Adjust Oven Temperature Calibration:
1. Press and hold CLOCK until the oven display shows the
current calibration, for example, “00,” if not yet adjusted, or
about 5 seconds.
2. Press the “up” or “down” arrow pads to increase or to
decrease the temperature in 5°F (3°C) amounts. The
adjustment can be set between 35°F (19°C) and
-35°F (-19°C).
3. Press CLOCK to enter the new temperature.
OVEN USE
Odors and smoke are normal when the oven is used the first few
times, or when it is heavily soiled.
IMPORTANT: The health of some birds is extremely sensitive to
the fumes given off. Exposure to the fumes may result in death to
certain birds. Always move birds to another closed and well-
ventilated room.
Aluminum Foil
IMPORTANT: Do not line the oven bottom with any type of foil,
liners or cookware because permanent damage will occur to the
oven bottom finish.
■Do not cover entire rack with foil because air must be able to
move freely for best cooking results.
■To catch spills, place foil on rack below dish. Make sure foil is
at least ½" (1.3 cm) larger than the dish and that it is turned
up at the edges.
Positioning Racks and Bakeware
IMPORTANT: To avoid permanent damage to the porcelain
finish, do not place food or bakeware directly on the oven door or
bottom.
RACKS
NOTES:
■Position racks before turning on the oven.
■Do not move racks with bakeware on them.
■Make sure racks are level.
To move a rack, pull it out to the stop position, raise the front
edge, then lift out. Use the following illustration and chart as a
guide.

BAKEWARE
To cook food evenly, hot air must be able to circulate. Allow
2" (5 cm) of space around bakeware and oven walls. Use the
following chart as a guide.
Bakeware
The bakeware material affects cooking results. Follow
manufacturer’s recommendations and use the bakeware size
recommended in the recipe. Use the following chart as a guide.
Oven Vent
The oven vent releases hot air and moisture from the oven, and
should not be blocked or covered. Blocking or covering vent will
cause poor air circulation, affecting cooking and cleaning results.
Do not set plastics, paper or other items that could melt or burn
near the oven vent.
The element can be used when the oven is in use as long as the
cookware does not extend more than ¹⁄₂" (1.3 cm) over the
element.
Baking and Roasting
Before baking and roasting, position the racks according to the
“Positioning Racks and Bakeware” section. When roasting, it is
not necessary to wait for the oven to preheat before putting food
in, unless recommended in the recipe.
To Bake or Roast:
1. Push in and turn the oven control knob to the desired
temperature setting. The OVEN ON and OVEN HEATING
lights will turn on, and the set temperature will appear in the
display for 5 seconds.
On some models, set the oven selector to BAKE and turn the
oven temperature control knob to the desired temperature
setting. The OVEN ON indicator light will turn on and will turn
off once the oven is preheated.
2. Place food in oven.
The bake and roasting elements will turn on and off to keep
the oven temperature at the setting. The OVEN ON indicator
light(s) will turn on and off with the elements.
3. Push in and turn oven control knob to OFF when finished.
On some models, turn both the oven selector and oven
temperature control knob to OFF. The OVEN ON indicator
light will turn off.

Broiling
Broiling uses direct radiant heat to cook food. Changing the
temperature when broiling allows more precise control. The lower
the temperature, the slower the cooking. Thicker cuts and
unevenly shaped pieces of meat, fish and poultry may cook
better at lower broiling temperatures.
■For best results, use a broiler pan and grid (provided on some
models). They are designed to drain juices and help avoid
spatter and smoke.
If you would like to purchase a broiler pan, one may be
ordered. See “Assistance or Service” section to order. Ask for
Part Number 4396923.
■For proper draining, do not cover the grid with foil. The
bottom of the pan may be lined with aluminum foil for easier
cleaning.
■Trim excess fat to reduce spattering. Slit the remaining fat on
the edges to avoid curling.
■Pull out oven rack to stop position before turning or removing
food. Use tongs to turn food to avoid the loss of juices. Very
thin cuts of fish, poultry or meat may not need to be turned.
■After broiling, remove the pan from the oven when removing
the food. Drippings will bake on the pan if left in the heated
oven, making cleaning more difficult.
Before broiling, position rack according to the Broiling Chart. It is
not necessary to preheat the oven before putting food in unless
recommended in the recipe. Position food on grid in the broiler
pan, then place it in the center of the oven rack. Close the door to
the broil stop position to ensure proper broiling temperature.
To Broil:
1. Push in and turn oven control knob to BROIL.
On some models, set the oven selector and oven temperature
control knob to BROIL. The OVEN ON indicator light will turn
on.
2. After broiling, turn the oven control knob to OFF.
On some models, turn both the oven selector and oven
temperature control knob to OFF. The OVEN ON indicator
light will turn off.
To Broil at a Lower Temperature:
If food is cooking too fast, turn the oven temperature control
knob counterclockwise until the OVEN ON indicator light goes
off.
To broil food slower from the start of cook time, set the oven
temperature control knob between 170°F and 325°F (77°C and
163°C). These temperature settings let the broil elements cycle
and slow cooking results.
BROILING CHART
For best results, place food 3" (7 cm) or more from the broil
element. Times are guidelines only and may need to be adjusted
for individual foods and tastes. Recommended rack positions are
numbered from the bottom (1) to the top (5). For diagram, see the
“Positioning Racks and Bakeware” section.
*Place up to 9 patties, equally spaced, on broiler grid.

17
IMPORTANTES INSTRUCTIONS DE SÉCURITÉ
CONSERVEZ CES INSTRUCTIONS
AVERTISSEMENT : Pour réduire le risque d’incendie, de
choc électrique, de blessures ou de dommages lors de
l’utilisation de la cuisinière, il convient d’observer certaines
précautions élémentaires dont les suivantes :
■ AVERTISSEMENT : POUR MINIMISER LE RISQUE
DE BASCULEMENT DE LA CUISINIÈRE, ELLE DOIT
ÊTRE BIEN IMMOBILISÉE PAR DES DISPOSITIFS
ANTIBASCULEMENT CORRECTEMENT INSTALLÉS.
POUR VÉRIFIER SI LES DISPOSITIFS SONT
CORRECTEMENT INSTALLÉS, GLISSER LA CUISINIÈRE
VERS L’AVANT ET VÉRIFIER SI LA BRIDE
ANTIBASCULEMENT EST BIEN FIXÉE AU PLANCHER,
ET GLISSER LA CUISINIÈRE VERS L’ARRIÈRE POUR
QUE LE PIED ARRIÈRE DE LA CUISINIÈRE SOIT SOUS
LA BRIDE ANTIBASCULEMENT.
■ MISE EN GARDE : Ne pas remiser dans des armoires
au-dessus de la cuisinière ou sur le dosseret d’une
cuisinière, des objets que des enfants pourraient vouloir
atteindre. Les enfants pourraient se brûler ou se blesser en
grimpant sur la cuisinière.
■ Installation appropriée – S’assurer que la cuisinière est
correctement installée et reliée à la terre par un technicien
qualifié.
■ Ne jamais utiliser la cuisinière pour réchauffer ou chauffer
la pièce.
■ Ne pas laisser les enfants seuls – Les enfants ne doivent
pas être laissés seuls ou sans surveillance dans la pièce
où la cuisinière est en service. Ne jamais laisser les
enfants s’asseoir ou se tenir sur une partie quelconque de
la cuisinière.
■ Porter des vêtements appropriés – Des vêtements amples
ou détachés ne doivent jamais être portés pendant
l’utilisation de la cuisinière.
■ Entretien par l’utilisateur – Ne pas réparer ni remplacer
toute pièce de la cuisinière si ce n’est pas spécifiquement
recommandé dans le manuel. Toute autre opération
d’entretien ou de réparation doit être confiée à un
technicien qualifié.
■ Remisage dans ou sur la cuisinière – Des matériaux
inflammables ne doivent pas être remisés dans un four ou
près des éléments de surface.
■ Ne pas utiliser d’eau pour éteindre un feu de graisse –
Étouffer le feu ou les flammes ou utiliser un extincteur à
produits chimiques secs, ou un extincteur à mousse.
■ N’utiliser que des mitaines sèches de four – Des mitaines
de four mouillées ou humides sur des surfaces chaudes
peuvent provoquer des brûlures provenant de la vapeur.
Ne pas laisser les mitaines de four toucher les éléments
chauffants. Ne pas utiliser une serviette ou un tissu épais.
■ NE PAS TOUCHER LES ÉLÉMENTS DE SURFACE OU
L’ESPACE PRÈS DES ÉLÉMENTS – Les éléments de
surface peuvent être chauds même lorsqu’ils ont une teinte
foncée. Les endroits près des éléments de surface peuvent
devenir assez chauds pour causer des brûlures. Pendant
et après l’utilisation, ne pas toucher les éléments
chauffants et ne pas laisser les vêtements ou autres
matériaux inflammables entrer en contact avec ces
éléments de surface ou les endroits près des éléments,
avant qu’ils soient suffisamment refroidis. Ces endroits
comprennent la table de cuisson et les surfaces près de la
table de la cuisson.
■ Utiliser des ustensiles de dimension appropriée – La
cuisinière est munie d’un ou de plusieurs éléments
chauffants de différentes grandeurs. Choisir les ustensiles
qui ont un fond plat assez grand pour couvrir l’élément
chauffant de la surface de cuisson. L’utilisation d’ustensiles
trop petits exposera une partie de l’élément chauffant, ce
qui peut provoquer l’inflammation des vêtements.
L’utilisation d’un récipient de dimension correcte améliore
aussi l’efficacité de la cuisson.
■ Ne jamais laisser les éléments de la table de cuisson sans
surveillance alors qu’ils chauffent à la puissance maximale.
Il pourrait en résulter une ébullition qui cause de la fumée
et des renversements de corps gras qui peuvent
s’enflammer.
■ S’assurer que les cuvettes réfléchissantes ou les bols de
renversement sont en place – L’absence de ces cuvettes
ou bols au cours de la cuisson peut causer des dommages
aux fils ou aux composants en dessous des éléments.
■ Garnissages protecteurs – Ne pas recouvrir les cuvettes
ou le fond du four de papier d’aluminium sauf tel que
suggéré dans le manuel. L’installation incorrecte de papier
d’aluminium ou d’autre matériau peut causer un risque de
choc électrique ou d’incendie.
■ Ustensiles de cuisson vitrifiés – Seulement certains types
d’ustensiles de verre, vitrocéramique, céramique, faïence
ou autres surfaces vitrifiées conviennent pour le service
sur une table de cuisson, sans bris attribuables aux
changements soudains de température.
■ Les poignées des ustensiles doivent être tournées vers
l’intérieur et non vers le dessus des éléments adjacents –
Pour réduire le risque de brûlures, d’inflammation de
produits inflammables et de renversements dus à
l’entrechoquement non intentionnel des ustensiles, la
poignée d’un ustensile doit être positionnée de sorte
qu’elle est tournée vers l’intérieur et non au-dessus des
éléments de surface adjacents.
■ Ne pas tremper les éléments de chauffage amovibles –
Les éléments de chauffage ne doivent jamais être
immergés dans l’eau.
■ Ne pas faire cuire sur une table de cuisson endommagée –
Si la table de cuisson est brisée, les solutions de nettoyage
et les renversements peuvent pénétrer dans la table de
cuisson brisée et créer un risque d’un choc électrique.
Contacter immédiatement un technicien qualifié.

18
IMPORTANTES INSTRUCTIONS DE SÉCURITÉ
CONSERVEZ CES INSTRUCTIONS
■ Nettoyer la table de cuisson avec prudence – Si une
éponge ou un chiffon mouillé est utilisé pour essuyer les
renversements sur une surface de cuisson chaude, éviter
les brûlures causées par la vapeur chaude. Certains
nettoyants peuvent produire des émanations désagréables
lorsqu’ils sont utilisés sur une surface chaude.
■ Exercer une grande prudence lors de l’ouverture de la
porte – Laisser l’air chaud ou la vapeur s’échapper avant
d’enlever ou de replacer un plat.
■ Ne pas faire chauffer des contenants fermés –
L’accumulation de pression peut causer une explosion du
contenant et des blessures.
■ Ne jamais obstruer les ouvertures des évents.
■ Positionnement des grilles du four – Toujours placer les
grilles du four en position désirée pendant que le four est
froid. Si la grille doit être déplacée pendant que le four est
chaud, ne pas laisser les mitaines de four toucher l’élément
chaud du four.
■ NE PAS TOUCHER LES ÉLÉMENTS CHAUFFANTS OU
LES SURFACES INTÉRIEURES DU FOUR – Les
éléments chauffants peuvent être chauds même s’ils ont
une teinte foncée. Les surfaces intérieures d’un four
deviennent assez chaudes pour causer des brûlures.
Pendant et après l’utilisation, ne pas toucher ou laisser des
vêtements ou autres matériaux inflammables venir en
contact avec les éléments chauds ou les surfaces
intérieures chaudes du four avant qu’ils aient eu assez de
temps pour refroidir. D’autres surfaces de l’appareil
peuvent devenir assez chaudes pour causer des brûlures.
Ces surfaces comprennent les ouvertures de l’évent du
four et les surfaces près de ces ouvertures, les portes du
four, et les hublots des portes du four.
Pour les cuisinières avec programme d’autonettoyage –
■ Ne pas nettoyer le joint de la porte – Le joint de la porte
est essentiel pour l’étanchéité. Veiller à ne pas frotter,
endommager ou déplacer le joint.
■ Ne pas utiliser des produits commerciaux de nettoyage du
four – On ne doit pas utiliser un produit commercial de
nettoyage de four ou un enduit de protection des surfaces
internes du four quel qu’en soit le type, sur les surfaces du
four ou les surfaces voisines.
■ Nettoyer uniquement les pièces indiquées dans le manuel.
■ Avant d’exécuter le programme d’autonettoyage du four –
Ôter la lèchefrite et son plat et les autres ustensiles.
Pour les appareils avec hotte de ventilation –
■ Nettoyer les hottes de ventilation fréquemment – La
graisse ne doit pas s’accumuler sur la hotte ou le filtre.
■ Lorsque vous flambez des aliments sous la hotte, mettre le
ventilateur en marche.

UTILISATION DE LA TABLE DE CUISSON
Commandes de la table de cuisson
Les boutons de commande peuvent être réglés à n'importe
quelle position entre HI et LO. Enfoncer et tourner le bouton au
réglage. Sur certains modèles, le repère de zone de cuisson à la
surface indique quel élément est allumé. Utiliser le tableau
suivant comme guide lors du réglage des niveaux de chaleur.
Éléments en spirale et cuvettes de brûleur
(sur certains modèles)
Les éléments en spirale doivent être de niveau pour une cuisson
idéale. Les cuvettes de brûleur, lorsqu’elles sont propres,
réfléchissent la chaleur sur l’ustensile de cuisson. Elles aident
également à contenir les renversements.
Les ustensiles de cuisson ne doivent pas dépasser l’élément en
spirale de plus de ¹⁄₂" (1,3 cm). Si l’ustensile de cuisson est de
forme irrégulière ou trop gros, il peut produire une chaleur
excessive causant la décoloration des cuvettes de brûleur. Pour
plus de renseignements, voir la section “Nettoyage général”.
REMARQUE : Avant d’enlever ou de réinstaller les éléments en
spirale et les cuvettes de brûleur, s’assurer qu’ils sont froids et
que les boutons de commande sont en position d’arrêt.
Enlèvement :
1. Pousser le bord de l’élément en spirale vers la prise. Puis le
soulever assez pour éviter la cuvette du brûleur.
2. Tirer l’élément en spirale tout droit hors de la prise.
3. Soulever la cuvette du brûleur.
Réinstallation :
1. Aligner les ouvertures de la cuvette du brûleur avec la prise
de l’élément en spirale.
2. Tenir l’élément en spirale le plus possible de niveau et
pousser doucement la fiche de l’élément en spirale dans la
prise.
3. Lorsque la fiche de l’élément est enfoncée jusqu’au fond,
appuyer sur le rebord de l’élément en spirale à l’opposé de la
prise.
