RANGE SAFETY
The Anti-Tip Bracket
The range will not tip during normal use. However, the range can tip if you apply too much force or weight to the open door without the
anti-tip bracket fastened down properly.
You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't
immediately follow instructions.
You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't
follow instructions.
All safety messages will tell you what the potential hazard is, tell you how to reduce the chance of injury, and tell you
what can happen if the instructions are not followed.
Your safety and the safety of others are very important.
We have provided many important safety messages in this manual and on your appliance. Always read and obey all
safety messages.
This is the safety alert symbol.
This symbol alerts you to potential hazards that can kill or hurt you and others.
All safety messages will follow the safety alert symbol and either the word “DANGER” or
“WARNING.” These words mean:
Tip Over Hazard
A child or adult can tip the range and be killed.
Connect anti-tip bracket to rear range foot.
Reconnect the anti-tip bracket, if the range is moved.

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.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
■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.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

5
■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.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
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 flaming foods under the hood, turn the fan on.

COOKTOP USE
Ceramic Glass
(on some models)
The surface cooking area will glow red when an element is on. It
will cycle on and off, at all settings, to maintain the selected heat
level.
Wiping off the cooktop before and after each use will help keep it
free from stains and provide the most even heating. On cooktops
with white ceramic glass, soils and stains may be more visible,
and may require more cleaning and care. For more information,
see “General Cleaning”section.
■Do not store jars or cans above the cooktop. Dropping a
heavy or hard object onto the cooktop could crack it.
■Do not leave a hot lid on the cooktop. As the cooktop cools,
air can become trapped between the lid and the cooktop,
and the ceramic glass could break when the lid is removed.
■For foods containing sugar in any form, clean up all spills and
soils as soon as possible. Allow the cooktop to cool down
slightly. Then, while wearing oven mitts, remove the spills
while the surface is still warm. If sugary spills are allowed to
cool down, they can adhere to the cooktop and can cause
pitting and permanent marks.
■Do not slide cookware or bakeware across the cooktop.
Aluminum or copper bottoms and rough finishes on
cookware or bakeware could leave scratches or marks on the
cooktop.
■Do not cook popcorn in prepackaged aluminum containers
on the cooktop. It could leave aluminum marks that cannot
be removed completely.
■Do not allow objects that could melt, such as plastic or
aluminum foil, to touch any part of the entire cooktop.
■Do not use the cooktop as a cutting board.
■Use cookware about the same size as the surface cooking
area. Cookware should not extend more than ½" (1.25 cm)
outside the area.
■Use flat-bottomed cookware for best heat conduction and
energy efficiency. Cookware with rounded, warped, ribbed or
dented bottoms could cause uneven heating and poor
cooking results.
■Determine flatness by placing the straight edge of a ruler
across the bottom of the cookware. While you rotate the ruler,
no space or light should be visible between it and the
cookware.
■Cookware designed with slightly indented bottoms or small
expansion channels can be used.
■Make sure the bottoms of pots and pans are clean and dry
before using them. Residue and water can leave deposits
when heated.
■Do not cook foods directly on the cooktop.
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, a well-
fitting lid and the material should be of medium-to-heavy
thickness.
Rough finishes may scratch the cooktop. 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.
On some models, griddles with nonstick surfaces should not be
used in the broiler.

Use the following chart as a guide for cookware material
characteristics.
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. Canners should not extend more than
½" (1.25 cm) outside the cooking area.
■Do not place canner on 2 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 “Assistance or Service”for
ordering instructions.
■For more information, contact your local U.S. Government
Agricultural Department Extension Office. In Canada, contact
Agriculture Canada. Companies that manufacture home
canning products can also offer assistance.

Single and Dual-Size Elements
(on ceramic glas models)
The Dual-Size Elements offer flexibility depending on the size of
the cookware. Single size can be used in the same way as a
regular element. The dual size combines both the single and
outer element and is recommended for larger size cookware,
large quantities of food and home canning.
To Use SINGLE:
1. Push in and turn knob clockwise from the OFF position to the
SINGLE zone anywhere between LO and HI.
2. Turn knob to OFF when finished.
To Use DUAL:
1. Push in and turn knob counterclockwise from the OFF
position to the DUAL zone anywhere between LO and HI.
2. Turn knob to OFF when finished.
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 1" (2.5 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 just 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, carefully push
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.

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.
NOTE: This oven automatically adjusts for 208V operation
without affecting cooking performance. Preheat times may be
longer.
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 1" (2.5 cm) larger than the dish and that it is turned up
at the edges.
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.
Meat Thermometer
On models without a temperature probe, always rely on a meat
thermometer to determine doneness of meat and poultry. The
internal temperature, not appearance, is what counts. A meat
thermometer is not supplied with this appliance.
■Insert the thermometer into the center of the thickest portion
of the meat or inner thigh or breast of poultry. The tip of the
thermometer should not touch fat, bone or gristle.
■After reading the thermometer once, push it into the meat ½"
(1.25 cm) more and read again. If the temperature drops,
cook the meat or poultry longer.
■Check all meat in 2 or 3 places.
Temperature Probe
(on some models)
The temperature probe accurately measures the internal
temperature of meat, poultry and casseroles with liquid and
should be used in determining the doneness of meat and poultry.
It should not be used during maxi and econo broiling, convection
broiling or proofing bread.
Always unplug and remove the temperature probe from the oven
when removing food.

To move a rack, pull it out to the stop position, raise the front
edge, then lift out. Use the following illustration and charts as a
guide.
Traditional Cooking
Convection Cooking
BAKEWARE
To cook food evenly, hot air must be able to circulate. Allow
1" (2.5 cm) of space around bakeware and oven walls. Use the
following chart as a guide.
Bake
The BAKE function is ideal for baking, roasting or heating
casseroles.
During baking or roasting, the bake and broil elements will cycle
on and off in intervals to maintain oven temperature.
If the oven door is opened during baking or roasting, the bake
element will turn off in 30 seconds to 2 minutes. It will come back
on once the door is closed.
To Bake or Roast:
Before baking and roasting, position 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.
1. Press BAKE once for 325°F (163°C), or press the number
pads to enter a temperature. Each subsequent press of BAKE
will increase the temperature to 350°F (177°C), 400°F (204°C)
and 425°F (218°C).
2. Press START.
Style 1: “Lo°” and “Preheating”will appear on the display if
the actual oven temperature is under 170°F (77°C). After a

When the set temperature is reached, 1 tone will sound, if on.
3. Press OFF when finished cooking.
Broil
(Maxi/Econo on some models)
■Use only the broiler pan and grid provided with the range. It is
designed to drain juices and help prevent spatter and smoke.
■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 prevent 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.

Broiling uses direct radiant heat to cook food. Use MAXI/ECONO
(on some models) for broiling regular-sized and smaller cuts of
meat, poultry and fish. Broil MAXI uses both top elements for
maximum browning coverage of foods. Broil ECONO uses the
inner element for browning coverage of a smaller area.
Before broiling, position rack according to 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 operation.
To Broil (on models with Maxi/Econo Broil):
1. Press MAXI BROIL or ECONO BROIL.
Choose Maxi Broil when broiling larger amounts of food with
both broil elements. Choose Econo Broil when broiling
smaller amounts of food with only the inner broil element.
2. Press START.
3. Press OFF when finished.
To Broil (on models with Broil):
1. Press BROIL.
2. Press START.
3. Press OFF when finished.
Variable Temperature Broiling

Convection Cooking
(on some models)
In a convection oven, the fan-circulated hot air continually
distributes heat more evenly than the natural movement of air in a
standard thermal oven. This movement of hot air maintains a
consistent temperature throughout the oven, cooking foods more
evenly, crisping surfaces while sealing in moisture and yielding
crustier breads.
Most foods can be cooked by lowering cooking temperatures
25°F to 50°F (14°C to 28°C) and cooking time can be shortened
by as much as 30 percent, especially for large turkeys and roasts.
■It is important not to cover foods so that surface areas remain
exposed to the circulating air, allowing browning and crisping.
■Keep heat loss to a minimum by only opening the oven door
when necessary.
■Choose cookie sheets without sides and roasting pans with
lower sides to allow air to move freely around the food.
■Test baked goods for doneness a few minutes before the
minimum cooking time with an alternative method such as a
toothpick.
■Use a meat thermometer or the temperature probe to
determine the doneness of meats and poultry. Check the
temperature of pork and poultry in 2 or 3 places.
EASY CONVECT™ Conversion
(on some models)
Convection cooking temperatures and times differ from those of
standard cooking. Depending upon the selected category, EASY
CONVECT™conversion automatically may reduce the standard
recipe temperature and/or time you input for convection cooking.
Foods are grouped into 3 general categories. Choose the
category most appropriate for the food to be cooked. To ensure
optimal cooking results, the oven will prompt a food check at the
end of a non-delayed cook time. Use the following chart as a
guide.
To Use:
Before using convection temperature conversion for BAKED
GOODS and OTHER FOODS, allow the oven to preheat before
placing food in the oven.
1. Press MEATS, BAKED GOODS or OTHER FOODS.
2. Press number pads to enter standard cook temperature.
3. Press number pads to enter standard cook time.
4. Press START.
“CHECK FOOD AT”and the stop time will appear on the oven
display.
When the stop time is reached, end-of-cycle tones will sound
if enabled. Open the door and check food.
5. Press OFF to cancel the reminder tones.
Auto Convection Baking
(on some models)
Auto convection baking allows you to convection cook without
entering convection cooking temperatures. Simply enter the
standard cooking temperature for the food to be cooked. The
oven will reduce the temperature for convection cooking. Check
the food as it is cooking because it may cook faster than the time
suggested in your recipe.
To Convection Auto Bake:
1. Press AUTO CONVECT.
Set the temperature to the standard non-convection cooking
temperature for the food being cooked.
The oven control will automatically adjust the correct
convection cooking temperature when cooking starts by
reducing the temperature by 50°F (28ºC).
2. Press START.
The oven control will automatically reduce the cooking
temperature from the standard cooking temperature to the
correct convection cooking temperature.
The electronic oven control will automatically set the preheat
time based on the temperature you have selected.
“Lo°” will appear on the display if the actual oven
temperature is under 170°F (77°C). After a temperature of
170°F (77°C) has been reached, the temperature will be
shown on the display until reaching the set point.
3. Press OFF when finished cooking.
Convection Bake
(on some models)
Convection baking can be used for baking delicate cakes and
pastries, as well as foods on multiple racks. It is helpful to
stagger items on the racks to allow a more even flow of heat. If
the oven is full, extra cooking time may be needed.
When cooking an oven meal with several different types of foods,
be sure to select recipes that require similar temperatures.
Cookware should sit in the oven with at least 1" (2.5 cm) of space
between the cookware and the sides of the oven.
During convection baking preheat, the broil elements and the
bake element all heat the oven cavity. After preheat, the
convection element will cycle on and off in intervals to maintain
oven temperature, while the fan constantly circulates the hot air.
If the oven door is opened during convection baking or
preheating, the convection element and fan will turn off
immediately. They will come back on once the door is closed.
■Reduce recipe temperature 25°F (14°C). The cook time may
need to be reduced also.
To Convection Bake:
Before convection baking, position racks according to the
“Positioning Racks and Bakeware”section.
1. Press CONVECT BAKE.
Press the number pads to enter a temperature other than
325°F (163°C). The convection bake range can be set
between 170°F and 500°F (77°C and 260°C).
