Please reter to the Anti-Tip device inflmnation in this manual. [_ailure to take this precaution could result in
tipping of the range and iqiury.
IMPORTANTSAFETYNOTICE
The fiberglass insulation in self-clean ovens gives off a very small amount of carbon monoxide during the
cleaning cycle. Exposure can be minimized by venting with an open window or using a ventilation fan or hood.
Fluorescent light bulbs contain mercury. If your model has a surface light, you must recycle the fluorescent light
bulb according to local, state and federal codes.

COOKMEATANDPOULTRYTHOROUGHLY...
Cook meat and poultry thoroughly--meat to at least an INTERNAL temperature of 160°Eand poultry to at least
an INTERNAL temperature of 180°ECooking to these temperatures usually protects against foodborne illness.
SURFACECOOKINGUNITSfa//mode/s)
Use proper pan size--select cookware having flat bottoms large enough to cover the surface un# heating
element. The use of undersized cookware will expose a portion of the surface unit to direct contact and
may result in ignition of clothing. Proper relationship of cookware to surface unit will also improve efficiency.
• Never leave the sm_fi_ce units unattended at high
heat settings, goilove_s cause smoking and greasy
spillove_ that may catch on fire.
• Use little tilt fi_r effective shallow or deep lilt flTing.
Filling tile pan too flfll of tilt c[lIl c[Itlse spillove_
when food is added.
• If a combination of oils or tilts will be used in flTing,
stir together befl)re heating, or as lilts melt slowly:
• _Mwa_:s heat tilt slowl}; and watch as it heats.
• Only certain types of glass, glassX eramic,
earthenware or other glazed containers are suitnble
for cooktop service; othei_ inay break because of
tile sudden change in temperature.
• To minimize tile possibility of bm'ns, ignition of
flammable materials and spillage, tile handle of
a container should be turned toward tile center
of the range without extending over nearby
smbfilce units.
• _Mwavs tm'n tile surtilce milts off heft)re removing

• Use a deep Iilt them/ometer whenever possible to
prevent overhearing lilt beyond the smoking point.
• Keep an eve on foods being flied at high or medimn
high heat settings.
• Foods fl)r fl')ing should be as dry as possible. Frost on
fl'ozen fi)ods or moisture on fl'esh fi)ods can cause
hot lilt to bubble up and over tile sides of tile pan.
• Do not leave any items on the cooktop, The hot air
fl'om the vent may ignite flammable items and will
increase pressm'e in closed contnine_5, which may

COILSURFACEUNITS(onsomemode/s)
To avoid the possibility of a burn or electric shock, always be certain that the controls for aft surface units are
at the OFF position and all coils are cool before attempting to lift or remove a unit.
[] Clean the cooktop with caution. If a wet sponge is
used to wipe spills on a hot cooktop, be carefld to
a\_id steam burns.
[] Do not imme*_e or soak the remo\;lb]e surlime units.
Do not put them in a dishwasher:
[] Be sure the drip pans and the vent duct are not
covered and are in place. Their absence during
cooldng could damage range pm_s and wiring.
[] Do not use aluminum fi_il to line the drip pans or
anDxhere in the oven except as described in this
manual. Misuse could result in a shock, fire hazard
or damage to the range.
RADIANTSURFACEUNITS(onsomemode/s)
Use care when touching the cooktop. The glass surface of the cooktop will retain heat after the controls have
been turned off.
• Avoid scratching the glass cooktop. The cooktop can
be scratched with items such as shaq) instruments,
rings or otherjeweh T and rivets on clothing.
• Do not operate the radiant stm'i_ce units if the glass
is broken. Spillove_ or cleaning solution may
penetrate a broken cooktop and create a risk of
electrical shock. Contact a qualified technician
immediately should your glass cooktop become
broken.
• Never use the glass cooktop stm'hce as a
cutting board.
• Do not place or store items that can melt or
catch fire on the glass cooktop, even when it
is not being used.
• Be carefld when plating spoons or other stirring
utensils on glass cooktop stm'hce when it is in use.
They may become hot and could cause 1)urns.
• Do not stand on the glass cooktop. The weight may
cause the top to break.
• Avoid heating an empty pan. Doing so may damage
the cooktop and the pan.
• Clean the cooktop with caution. If a wet sponge or
cloth is used to wipe spills on a hot surlilce unit,
be careful to avoid smam burns. Some cleane_ can
produce noxious tirades if applied to a hot stm'i_ce.
NOTE."Werecommendthat youavoid wiping any surfaceunit
areasuntil theyhave cooledand the indicator light hasgoneoff.
Sugarspills are the exceptionto this.Pleasesee Cleaning the
glass cooktop section.
• When the cooktop is cool, use only the
recommended cleaning cream to clean the cooktop.
• To avoid possible damage m the cooking StlI_;Ice,
do not apply cleaning cream to the glass suil'ilce
when it is hot.
• _Mier cleaning, use a d_T cloth or paper towel to
remove all cleaning cream residue.
• Read and tollow all instructions and warnings on
the cleaning cream labels.
• I,a_ge scratches or impacts to cooktops can lead to
broken or shattered glass.
• Do not lilt the cooktop on models with radiant
SUll'hce units. Lifting the cooktop can lead to damage
and improper operation of the range.
• Do not use plastic wrap to cover food. Plastic may
melt onto the surti_ce and be very difficult to remove.

OVEN
Stand away from the range when opening the oven door. Hot air or steam which escapes can cause bums to
hands, face and/or eyes.
[] Do not heat unopened food containers. Pressure
could build up and tile container could bm_t,
causing an il_jury.
• Keep tile oven vent unobstructed.
• Keep tile o',en five fl'om grease buildup.
•Hace tile ox ell shelf in tile desired position while
tile (yen is cool. If shelves must be handled when

electric shock or fire.
SELF-CLEANINGOVEN(onsomemode/s)
Donot 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. Residue from oven cleaners will damage the inside of the oven when the
self-clean cycle is used.
• Do not clean tile door gasket. Tile door gasket is
essential for a good seal. Care should be taken not

PREPARATION
Yourrange, like many other household items, is heavy and can settle into soft floor coverings such as cushioned
vinyl or carpeting. When moving the range on this type of flooring, use care, and it is recommended that these
simple and inexpensive instructions be followed.
Installing
The range should be installed on a 1/4inch thick sheet of
plywood (or similar material) as foflows:
\'\]_en the floor coveting ends ;it the fi'ont of the range,
the area that the range will rest on should be built up
with plywood to the same le\ el or higher than the floor
co\vfing. This will allow the range to be Fno; ed for
cleaning or selaidng.
Leveling
Leveling screws are located on each corner ot the base
of the range. Remove the bottom drawer and _)tl can
level the range on an tllle;'ell floor with the rise of
a nutdfi_vr or cham_el locks.
To remo_v the drawel, pull the drawer out all the way,
tilt up the fl'ont and take it out. To replace the draweI;
insert glides at back of the drmver beyond stop on the
range glides. Liii drawer if necessary to insert easily.
Let the ti'ont of drawer down, then push in to close.
One of the rear ]e\ eling screws will engage the Anti-Tip
device. _Mlow for some side to side ac!iustment, _Mlow
a minimum clearance of 1/8" between the range
and the le\ eling screw that is to be installed into the
Anti-Tip device.

Howe\'e_; do not let these pots boil (hT.
Oved/eated metal can bond to glass cooktops.
An ove_t/eated copper bottom pot will leave a

if not removed immediately:
Porcelain Enamel Covered Cast Iron:
recommended
_&slong as the cookware is covered completely

Surface Cookware Tips (electric coil models only)
Use inediuin- (:,rhea',T-weight cookware.
Muminum cookware conducts heat fhsmr than
other metals. Cast-iron and coamd cast-iron
cookware are slow to absorb heat, but generally
cook evenly at low to medium heat settings.
Steel pans may cook unevenly if not combined
with other metals.
For best cooking results, pans should be fiat on
tile bottom. Match the size of tile saucei)an to
the size of the surfi_ce unit. The pan should not
extend over the edge of the s/mfi_ce unit more
than 1 inch.
