STATE OF CALIFORNIA PROPOSITION 65 WARNING
ANTI-TIP DEVICE
WARNING
The California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act requires the Governor of California to
publish a list of substances known to the state to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm,
and requires businesses to warn customers of potential exposure to such substances.
WARNING This product contains one or more chemical known to the State of California to
cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm.
Self-clean ovens can cause low-level exposure to some of these substances, including carbon monoxide,
during the cleaning cycle. Exposure can be minimized by venting with an open window or using a
ventilation fan or hood.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION.
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.
SAFETY INFORMATION
To reduce the risk of tipping the range,
the range must be secured by a properly
installed anti-tip bracket. See installation
instructions shipped with the bracket for
complete details before attempting to install.
For Free-Standing and Slide-In Ranges
To check if the bracket is installed and
engaged properly, look underneath the
range to see that the rear leveling leg
is engaged in the bracket. On some models, the storage
drawer or kick panel can be removed for easy inspection.
If visual inspection is not possible, slide the range forward,
confirm the anti-tip bracket is securely attached to the floor
or wall, and slide the range back so the rear leveling leg is
under the anti-tip bracket.
If the range is pulled from the wall for any reason, always
repeat this procedure to verify the range is properly secured
by the anti-tip bracket.
Never completely remove the leveling legs or the range will
not be secured to the anti-tip device properly.
A child or adult can tip the range and be killed.
Verify the anti-tip bracket has been properly installed
and engaged.
Ensure the anti-tip bracket is re-engaged when the range
is moved.
Do not operate the range without the anti-tip bracket in
place and engaged.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death or
serious burns to children or adults.

ŶIf there is a fire in the oven during baking,
smother the fire by closing the oven door and
turning the oven off or by using a multi-purpose
dry chemical or foam-type fire extinguisher.
ŶIf there is a fire in the oven during self-clean, turn
the oven off and wait for the fire to go out. Do
not force the door open. Introduction of fresh air
at self-clean temperatures may lead to a burst
of flame from the oven. Failure to follow this

surface unit will also improve efficiency.
ŶOnly certain types of glass, glass/ceramic,
earthenware or other glazed containers are
suitable for cooktop service; others may break
because of the sudden change in temperature.
ŶTo minimize the possibility of burns, ignition of
flammable materials and spillage, the handle of a
container should be turned toward the center of
the range without extending over nearby surface
units.
ŶWhen preparing flaming foods under a hood, turn
the fan on.
ŶIf power is lost to an electric cooktop while a
surface unit is ON, the surface unit will turn back
on as soon as power is restored. In the event of
power loss, failure to turn all surface unit knobs
to the OFF position may result in ignition of items
on or near the cooktop, leading to serious injury
or death.

oven door. Hot air or steam which escapes can
cause burns to hands, face and/or eyes.
ŶDo not use the oven if a heating element
develops a glowing spot during use or shows
other signs of damage. A glowing spot indicates
the heating element may fail and present a
potential burn, fire, or shock hazard. Turn the
oven off immediately and have the heating
element replaced by a qualified service
technician.
ŶKeep the oven vent unobstructed.
ŶKeep the oven free from grease buildup. Grease
in the oven may ignite.

do not let pot holder contact hot heating element
in oven.
ŶWhen using cooking or roasting bags in the
oven, follow the manufacturer’s directions.
ŶPull the oven rack to the stop-lock position when
loading and unloading food from the oven. This

Recommended rack positions for various types of
foods are provided in the Cooking Guide. Adjusting
rack position is one way to impact cooking results. For
example, if you would prefer darker tops on cakes,
muffins, or cookies, try moving food one rack position
higher. If you find foods are too brown on top try moving
them down next time.

To avoid possible burns, place the racks in the desired
position before you turn the oven on.
Extension Racks
Always pull the rack out by its upper front rail to its fully
open position, when placing or removing cookware.
If extension racks are difficult to extend, lubricate the
racks with the graphite lubricant provided with your
oven. Remove the rack from the oven, remove debris in
the side tracks with a paper towel, shake the graphite
lubricant and place 4 small drops on the two bottom
tracks of the left and right sides. Open and close the
rack several times to distribute the lubricant.
To order additional graphite lubricant, read the
Assistance and Accessories section at the beginning of
the manual.
To Remove An Extension Rack:
1. Make sure the rack is pushed all the way into the
oven so that side paddles on the rack disengage from
the oven support.
2. Slide the rack toward you to the bump (stop position)
on the rack support.
3. Firmly grasp both sides of the rack frame and the
sliding rack, tilt the front end up and pull it out.
To Replace An Extension Rack:
1. Firmly grasp both sides of the rack frame and the
sliding rack.
2. Place the curved end of the rack (stop-locks) onto the
oven supports, tilt up the front of the rack and push it
in as far as it will go.
If extension racks are difficult to replace or remove, wipe
the oven rack supports with cooking oil. Do not wipe oil
on the rack slides.
To Lubricate the Paddle:
Shake lubricant and apply to the moving parts of the
paddle mechanisms as shown.
The number of rack positions may vary by model.

Cookware Guidelines
The material, finish, and size of cookware affect baking
performance.
Dark, coated and dull pans absorb heat more readily
than light, shiny pans. Pans that absorb heat more
readily can result in a browner, crisper, and thicker crust.
If using dark and coated cookware check food earlier
than minimum cook time. If undesirable results are
obtained with this type of cookware consider reducing
RYHQWHPSHUDWXUHE\)QH[WWLPH
Shiny pans can produce more evenly cooked baked
goods such as cakes and cookies.
Glass and ceramic pans heat slowly but retain heat well.
These types of pans work well for dishes such as pies
and custards.
Air insulated pans heat slowly and can reduce bottom
browning.
Keep cookware clean to promote even heating.
CAUTION: Do not use any type of foil or oven liner to cover the oven bottom. These items can trap
heat or melt, resulting in damage to the product and risk of shock, smoke or fire. Damage from improper use
of these items is not covered by the product warranty.
Foil may be used to catch spills by placing a sheet on a lower rack, several inches below the food. Do not use more

Refer to the Cooking Guide section for recommendations for specific foods. Remember, your new oven may perform
differently than the oven it is replacing.
Baking and Roasting Modes
Select a mode for baking and roasting based on the
type and quantity of food you are preparing. When
preparing baked goods such as cakes, cookies, and
pastries always preheat the oven first. Follow recipe
recommendations for food placement. If no guidelines
are provided, center food in the oven.
Bake
The bake mode is intended for single rack cooking. This

Oven Exterior
Do not use oven cleaners, abrasive cleansers, strong
liquid cleansers, steel wool, plastic scouring pads, or
cleaning powders on the interior or exterior of the oven.
Clean with a mild soap and water or vinegar and water
solution. Rinse with clean water and dry with a soft cloth.
When cleaning surfaces, make sure that they are at
room temperature and not in direct sunlight.
If stain on the door vent trim is persistent, use a mild
abrasive cleaner and a sponge-scrubber for best results.
Spillage of marinades, fruit juices, tomato sauces and
basting liquids containing acids may cause discoloration
and should be wiped up immediately. Let hot surfaces
cool, then clean and rinse.
Painted Surfaces
Painted surfaces include the sides of the range and the
doors, and top of control panel. Clean these with soap and
water or a vinegar and water solution.
Do not use commercial oven cleaners, cleaning powders,
steel wool or harsh abrasives on any painted surface.
Stainless Steel Surfaces (on some models)
Do not use a steel wool pad; it will scratch the surface.
To clean the stainless steel surface, use warm sudsy
water or a stainless steel cleaner or polish. Always wipe
the surface in the direction of the grain. Follow the cleaner
instructions for cleaning the stainless steel surface.
To inquire about purchasing cleaning products including
stainless steel appliance cleaner or polish read the
Assistance and Accessories sections at the beginning of
this manual.
Porcelain Enamel Cooktop
The porcelain enamel finish is sturdy but breakable if
misused. This finish is acid-resistant. However, any acidic
foods spilled (such as fruit juices, tomato or vinegar)
should not be permitted to remain on the finish.
If acids spill on the cooktop while it is hot, use a dry paper
towel or cloth to wipe it up right away. When the surface
has cooled, wash with soap and water. Rinse well.
For other spills such as fat spatterings, wash with soap
and water or cleansing powders after the surface has
cooled. Rinse well. Polish with a dry cloth.
