ANTI-TIP DEVICE
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.
WARNING Read all safety instructions before using the product. Failure to follow these instructions may result
in fire, electrical shock, serious injury or death.
• A child or adult can tip the range and be killed.
• Install the anti-tip bracket to the wall or floor.
• Engage the range to the anti-tip bracket by sliding the
range back such that the foot is engaged.
• Re-engage the anti-tip bracket if the range is moved.
• Failure to do so can result in death or serious burns
to children or adults.

How Induction Surface Cooking Works
The elements beneath the cooking surface produce a
magnetic field that generates heat in ferrous metal pans
that are in close proximity.
The cooking surface itself does not heat. Heat is
produced in the cooking pan, and cannot be generated
until a pan is placed on the cooking surface.
When the element is activated, the pan begins to heat
immediately and in turn heats the contents of the pan.
Magnetic induction cooking requires the use of cookware
stick, such as iron or steel.
enough for the element to detect the pan and be able to
deliver full power.
The cooktop will not operate if a very small steel or iron
utensil, such as a steel spatula, cooking spoon, knife
or other small utensil, is placed on the cooking surface
when the unit is turned on.
CAUTION

less power at any given setting.
Cookware “Noise”
Slight sounds may be produced by different types
of cookware. Heavier pans such as enameled cast
iron produce less noise than a lighter weight multi-ply
stainless steel pan. The size of the pan, and the amount
of contents, can also contribute to the sound level.
When using adjacent elements that are set at certain power
level settings, magnetic fields may interact and produce
a low whistle or intermittent “hum”. These noises can be
reduced or eliminated by lowering or raising the power
level settings of one or both of the elements. Pans that
completely cover the element ring will produce less noise.
A low “humming” noise is normal particularly on high
settings.
Sounds you may here: You may hear a slight “Buzz”
when cooking with Hi mode. This is normal. The sound
depends on the type of pot being used. Some pots will
“Buzz” louder depending on the material. A “Buzz” sound
may be heard if the pan contents are cold. As the pan
heats, the sound will decrease. If the power level is
reduced, the sound level will go down.
Power Control
If a surface unit is on power level H (high), for an
extended period of time or if multiple surface units are
on, there may be a slight reduction in power to the
surface unit. Water under pans may also cause the
controls to reduce the power delivered to the cookware.

Oven Racks
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.
When baking with multiple pans and on multiple racks,
ensure there is at least 1½" between pans to allow
sufficient space for air to flow.
flat racks.
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, see the
Accessories and Consumer Support sections at the end
of this 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
on the rack slides.
To Lubricate the Paddle:
Shake lubricant and apply to the moving parts of the
paddle mechanisms as shown.

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
oven temperature by 25°F next time.
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

USING THE RANGE: Cooking Modes
Your new oven has a variety of cooking modes to help you get the best results. These modes are described below.
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.
Traditional Bake
The traditional bake mode is intended for single rack
cooking. This mode uses heat primarily from the lower
element but also from the upper element to cook
food. To use this mode press the Bake pad, enter
a temperature, and then press Start. Preheating is
generally recommended when using this mode.
Convection Bake
The Convection Bake mode is intended for baking on
multiple racks at the same time. This mode uses heat
primarily from the rear element but also heat from the
upper and lower elements, along with air movement
from the convection fan to enhance cooking evenness.
Your oven is equipped with Auto Recipe Conversion,
so it is not necessary to convert the temperature when
using this mode. Baking time might be slightly longer for
multiple racks than what would be expected for a single
rack. To use this mode press the Convection Bake
pad, enter a temperature, and then press Start. Always
preheat when using this mode.
Convection Roast
The Convection Roast mode is intended for roasting
whole cuts of meat on a single rack. This mode uses
heat from the lower, upper, and rear elements along
with air movement from the convection fan to improve
browning and reduce cooking time. It is not necessary to
convert temperature. Check food earlier than the recipe
suggested time when using this mode or use a meat
probe. To use this mode press the Convection Roast
pad, enter a temperature, and then press Start. It is not
necessary to preheat when using this mode.
Broiling Modes
Broiling is available in both ovens. For better broiling,
the lower oven is recommended. When broiling in the
upper oven, the door should remain CLOSED. When
broiling in the lower oven, the door should remain OPEN.
Monitor food closely while broiling. Use caution when
broiling on upper rack positions as placing food closer to
the broil element increases smoking, spattering, and the
possibility of fats igniting. For best performance center
food below the broil heating element.
Try broiling foods that you would normally grill. Adjust
rack positions to adjust the intensity of the heat to the
food. Place foods closer to the broil element when a
seared surface and rare interior is desired. Thicker foods
and foods that need to be cooked through should be
broiled on a rack position farther from the broiler or by
using Broil Lo.
Broil Hi
The Traditional Broil Hi mode uses intense heat from the
upper element to sear foods. Use Broil Hi for thinner cuts
of meat and/or foods you prefer less done on the interior.
To use this mode press the Broil pad once and then
press Start. It is not necessary to preheat when using
this mode.
Broil Lo
The Traditional Broil Lo mode uses less intense heat
from the upper element to cook food thoroughly while
also producing surface browning. Use Broil Lo for thicker
cuts of meat and/or foods that you would like cooked
all the way through. To use this mode press the Broil
pad twice and then press Start. It is not necessary to
preheat when using this mode.
Warm
Warm mode is designed to keep hot foods hot for up to
3 hours. To use this mode, press the Warmpad then
pressStart.Cover foods that need to remain moist and
do not cover foods that should be crisp. Preheating is
not required. Do not use warm to heat cold food other
than crisping crackers, chips or dry cereal. It is also
recommended that food not be kept warm for more
than 2 hours.

Proper Probe Placement
After preparing the meat and placing it on the cooking
pan follow these instructions for proper probe placement.
probe will rest in the center of the thickest part of
the food. For best performance the probe should
be fully inserted into the food. If the probe is not
located properly, it may not accurately measure the
temperature of the coolest portion of the food. Some
foods, particularly small items, are not well suited for
cooking with the probe due to their shape or size.

USING THE RANGE: Probe
WARNING Consuming undercooked food can result in foodborne illness. Use probe according to
the following instructions to ensure all portions of the food reach minimum safe cooking temperatures.
Recommendations for minimum safe food temperatures can be found at
www.foodsafety.gov or www.IsItDoneYet.gov.
Internal food temperature is frequently used as an indicator of doneness, especially for roasts and
poultry. The Probe mode monitors the internal food temperature and turns the oven off when the internal
food temperature reaches the programmed temperature.
Always check the temperature at multiple locations in the food with a food thermometer after cooking to
ensure that all portions of the food have reached the minimum safe internal temperature for that food.
