USING THE SURFACE BURNERS
Fire Hazard
Do not let the burner flame extend beyond
the edge of the pan.
Turn off all controls when not cooking.
Failure to follow these instructions can
result in death or fire.
NOTE: Unit is shipped with the surface burners in
the Cooktop Lockout position and must be
unlocked before they can be used. See "Using the
Cooktop Lockout," p.13.
Us tg con 'o knobs
Your range comes with electric ignitors that light the
burners each time you turn the control knobs to UTE.
•Place a filled pan on the burner grate before
turning on the surface burner. Do not operate a
burner for extended periods of time without
having cookware on the grate.
• Push in the control knob and turn it counter-
clockwise to the LITE 3osition. The clicking
sound is the ignitor
sparking. Make sure the
burner has lit.
• Stop the clicking
sound after the burner
lights by turning the
control knob anywhere
between HI and LO.
NOTES."
• Do not try to light the
surface burners
during a power failure.
• All four electric ignitors will click at the same
time. However, the burner with the control knob
turned to LITE is the one that will ignite.
Use the following chart as a guide.
SETTING RECOMMENDED USE
LITE •To light the burner.
Power Burner • To provide highest heat
left front burner) setting.
HI • To start food cooking.
• To bring liquid to a boil.
Mid-range •To hold a boil.
between HI and • To fry chicken or pancakes.
LO) • To cook gravy, pudding, or
icing.
• To cook large amounts of
vegetables.
LO • To keep food warm.
• To simmer.
SURESIMMER vM • To provide lowest
setting simmer/heat setting.
(right rear burner) • To melt chocolate or butter.
NOTE: Do not leave empty cookware, or cookware
which has boiled dry, on a hot surface burner. The
cookware could overheat, causing damage to the
cookware or cooking product.
The left front burner is designed to give @tra-high
power when it is fully on. It can be used to rapidly
bring liquid to a boil and to cook large quantities of
food.
The right rear SURESIMMER burner is designed for
low temperature cooking. It allows accurate simmer
control at the lowest setting.
• To help shorten your cooking time, use the least
amount of liquid possible.
• Start your food on a higher heat setting, then turn
the control to a lower setting to finish cooking.
I
REMEMBER: When range is in use or during [
the Self-Cleaning cycle, the entire cooktop area I
may become hot.

USING THE SURFACE BURNERS (contd.)
The large diameter of most water-bath or pressure
canners combined with high heat settings for long
periods of time can cause damage to the cooktop.
To protect your range:
• Center the canner over the surface burner. Do
not extend more than 1 inch outside the burner
area.
• Do not place your canner on two surface burners
at the same time.
• Start with hot water, cover with a lid and bring to
a boil; then reduce heat to maintain a boil or
required pressure levels in a pressure canner.
• Refer to your canner manual for specific
instructions.
For up-to-date information on canning, contact
your local U.S. Government Agricultural
Department Extension Office or companies who
manufacture home canning products.
• The pan should have a flat bottom, straight sides,
and a well-fitting lid.
• Choose medium to heavy gauge (thickness)
cookware.
The pan material (metal or glass) affects how
quickly and evenly the pan heats.
When using glass or ceramic cookware, check to
make sure it is suitable for use on surface burners.
To avoid tipping, make sure pots and pans are
centered on the grates.
CHARACTERISTICS OF COOKWARE MATERIALS
The pan material affects how fast heat transfers from the surface cooking area through the pan material and how
evenly heat spreads over the pan bottom. Choose pans that provide the best cooking results.
Aluminum • Heats quickly and evenly.
• Use for all types of cooking.
• Medium or heavy thickness is best for most cooking.
• Used as a core or base in cookware to provide even heating.
Cast iron • Heats slowly and evenly.
• Good for browning and frying.
• Maintains heat for slow cooking.
• Can be coated with porcelain enamel.
Ceramic or • Heats slowly and unevenly.
ceramic glass • Use on tow to medium settings.
• Follow manufacturer's instructions.
Copper • Heats very quickly and evenly.
• Used as a core or base in cookware to provide even heating.
Earthenware • Can be used for cooktop cooking if recommended by the
manufacturer.
• Use on low settings.
Porcelain enamel-on-steel or • See cast iron and stainless steel.

USING THE OVEN
S IXJR[;£=dti sci wtls
The integrated handle area makes pulling out the
STURDIGLIDE rack simple. The opening is large
enough for a potholder or oven mitt.
S[IJRBIQLI#I' HALFoRRCR
The STURDIGLIDE TM HALF-RACK with removeable
insert is a space maximizer. When attached, they
make a full rack. The insert can also be used on
the counter for a cooling rack.
Position a full rack on guide 1 or 2 and the half-
rack on guide 3 or 4. On the full rack place large
items on right side and deeper, covered dishes on
left side. Place shallow dishes on the half-rack. It
may be necessary to increase cooking time. At the
end of cooking, carefully remove items from the
oven.
Place the STURDIGLIDE racks where you need
them before turning on the oven.
• To move a rack, pull it out to the stop position,
raise the front edge and lift it out.
• Be sure the rack(s) is level.
• Use pot holders or oven mitts to protect your hands
if rack(s) must be moved while the oven is hot.
• For best performance, cook on one rack. Place
the rack so the top of the food will be centered in
the oven.
•When cooking with two racks, arrange the racks
on the 2nd and 4th rack guides. Two sheets of
cookies may be baked if sheets are switched at
approximately three quarters of the total bake
time. Increase baking time, if necessary.
• For best results allow 2 inches of space around
each pan and between pans and oven walls. Hot
air must circulate around the pans in the oven for
even heat to reach all parts of the oven. This
results in better baking.
It,- _ql_ *= -I ,,=.....
Use this rack position when roasting food too large
to be placed on the first
rack position.
For proper roasting,
follow these guidelines:
• To avoid spillage,
remove food before
pulling out the rack.
• Tilt the rack up at the
front before pulling it
over the door.
• Use an adequate amount of liquid in the pan
(meat juices or water) so your food does not get
overdone.
Where to place pans:
WHEN YOU HAVE PLACE
1 pan In center of the oven rack.
2 pans Side by side or slightly
staggered.
3 or 4 pans In opposite corners on
each oven rack. Stagger
pans so no pan is directly
over another.
Rack placement for specific foods:
FOOD RACK POSITION
Frozen pies, large 1st or 2nd rack guide
roasts, turkeys, from bottom
angel food cakes
Bundt cakes, most 2nd rack guide from
quick breads, yeast bottom
breads, casseroles,
Cookies, biscuits,
muffins, cakes,
nonfrozen pies
2nd or 3rd rack guide

NOTE: For information on where to place your rack
when broiling, see "Broiling guidelines," pp. 19, 20.

BAKEWARE CHOICES
Baking performance is affected by the type of bakeware used. Use the bakeware size recommended in the recipe.
BAKEWARE TYPE BEST USED FOR GUIDELINES
Light colored aluminum •Light golden crusts • Use temperature and time recommended
• Even browning in recipe.
Dark aluminum and other • Brown, crisp crusts • May reduce baking temperature 25°F.
bakeware with dark, dull, • Use suggested baking time.
and/or non-stick finish • Use temperature and time recommended in recipe
for pies, breads, and casseroles.
• Place rack in center of oven.
Ovenproof glassware, • Brown, crisp crusts • May reduce baking temperature 25°F.
ceramic glass, or ceramic
Insulated cookie sheets or • Little or no bottom browning • Place in the bottom third of oven.
baking pans • May need to increase baking time.
Stainless steel • Light, golden crusts • May need to increase baking time.
• Uneven browning
Stoneware • Crisp crusts • Follow manufacturer's instructions.
USING ALUMINUM FOIL
•Do not line the oven bottom with any type of
foil, liners, or cookware. Permanent damage
will occur to the oven bottom finish.
•Do not block the oven bottom vents.
•Do not cover the entire rack with aluminum foil.
Doing so will reduce air circulation and overall
oven performance.
• To catch spillovers from pies or casseroles place
foil on the oven rack below. Foil should be turned
up at edges and be at least 1 inch larger than
dish.
•Place tent-shaped foil loosely over meat or
poultry to slow down surface browning for long
term roasting. Remove foil for the last 30 minutes.
•Use narrow strips of foil to shield piecrust
edges if browning too quickly.

4. When roasting, preheating the oven is not nec-
cessary unless your recipe
recommends it.
NOTE." The oven will heat
normally even though
"PrE HEAt" is displayed
and then maintain the
selected cooking
temperature.
• For even cooking, place the meat on a rack in a
shallow pan. This keeps the meat out of the
drippings and allows the heat to circulate better.
• Use a meat thermometer for the most accurate
doneness. Insert it so the tip is in the center of
the largest muscle or thickest portion of the meat
or poultry. Make sure the thermometer is not
touching bone, fat, or the bottom of the pan.
5. Press START/ENTER.
A preheat mode is entered after the oven
temperature has been set and START has been
pressed. Once the preheat conditioning ends,
the selected oven temperature replaces "PrE
HEAt" on the display. You will hear a 1-second
tone, indicating the oven is ready to use.
The ULTRABAKE TM system electronically
regulates the preheat and temperature to maintain
a precise temperature range for the best cooking
results.

NOTES:
• You can change the temperature setting any
time after pressing START/ENTER. You do not
have to press START/ENTER again.
• While the oven is in the preheat mode, you can
see the set temperature for 5 seconds by
pressing BAKE.
(example for set temperature
of 350°F)
6. When baking, put your food in the oven after
the preheat conditioning
ends. During baking/
roasting, the oven burner
will turn on and off to keep
the oven temperature at
the setting.
• To avoid loss of heat, open the oven door as little
as possible.
• Use the timer to keep track of cooking time.
• Plan your meals for the most efficient use of the
oven by cooking more than one food at a time, or
baking while the oven is still hot after cooking a
meal.

READJUSTING THE OVEN TEMPERATURE CONTROL
(OPTIONAL)
Although your new oven is properly adjusted to
provide accurate temperatures, it may cook
faster or slower than your old oven.
If you are not satisfied with the baking/roasting
results, you can change the temperature calibration
by following the steps below.
1, Press and hold BAKE for 5 seconds.
The display will show the current temperature
calibration, for example "0," if you have not
already adjusted the temperature.
NOTE: DO NOT measure the oven temperature with
a thermometer. Opening the oven door will lower
the oven temperature and give you an incorrect
reading. Also, the thermometer temperature reading
will change as your oven cycles.
PRESS YOU SEE
2, Set the new offset temperature.
Press TEMP (A) or (V) pad(s) to raise or lower
the temperature in 10°F amounts. You can set
the temperature change to as low as -30°F or as
high as +30°E A minus (-) sign will appear before
the number when decreasing the temperature
setting. The minus sign shows the oven will be
cooler by the displayed amount. There is no sign
in front of the number when increasing the
temperature setting.

BROILING
For best results, do not preheat when broiling
unless your recipe recommends it.
1. Place the STURDIGLIDE TM rack so that the
surface of the food is no less than 3 inches away
from the broil burner. See "Broiling guidelines,"
pp. 19, 20.
2. Put your food on the broiler pan and place the
pan in the center of the oven rack. Close the door.
3. Press BROIL. PRESS YOU SEE
4. Press START/ENTER.
You can change the temperature setting any
time before or after pressing START/ENTER.

Use precision broiling if your food is cooking too
fast or if you want your food to broil slower from the
start. The lower the temperature, the slower the
cooking. Thicker cuts and unevenly shaped pieces
of meat, fish and poultry may cook better if you use
lower broiling temperatures.

•Use only the broiler pan and grid provided. They
are designed to drain extra juices from the
cooking surface. This drainage helps prevent
spatter and smoke.
• To make sure the juices drain well, do not cover
the grid with foil.
• Trim excess fat to reduce spattering. Slit the fat
on the edges to prevent curling.
• Use tongs to turn meat to avoid losing juices.
• Pull out oven rack to stop position before turning
or removing food.
• 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.
• For easier cleaning, line the bottom of the pan
with aluminum foil. Clean the pan and grid as
soon as possible after each use.
