1. Your unit should be installed by a qualified technician. The
appliance must be installed and electrically grounded according to
local codes.
2. Do not attempt to repair or replace an part of this appliance unless
specifically recommended in this manual. All servicing should be
referred to a qualified technician. Warranty service must be
performed by an authorized service agency.
3. The “push-to-turn” knobs of this range are designed to be child-
safe. However, children should not be left alone in the kitchen
while the range is in use. Do not store items of interest to children
over the unit. CCAAUUTTIIOONN::Children climbing to reach items could
be seriously injured.
4. GREASE is flammable and should be handled carefully. Do not
use water on grease fires. Never pick up a flaming pan. Smother
flaming pan by covering utensil completely with well-fitting lid,
cookie sheet or flat tray. Flaming grease outside of utensil can be
extinguished with baking soda or, if available, a multipurpose dry
chemical or foam type extinguisher.
5. Never leave the surface area unattended at high heat setting.
Boil-overs cause smoking and greasy spill-overs which may ignite.
6. If you are “flaming” liquor or other spirits under an exhaust, TTUURRNN
TTHHEEFFAANNOOFFFF..The draft could cause the flames to spread out of
control.
7. Wear proper apparel. Loose-fitting or hanging garments should
never be worn while using the appliance.
8. Never use your range for warming or heating a room. This is
based on safety considerations.
9. Use proper pan size. Select utensils having flat bottoms large
enough to cover the burner. Using undersized utensils allows the
flame to come up the side of the utensil, scorching the outside of
the utensil and making cleanup harder.
5
10. Use dry pot holders. Moist or damp pot holders on hot surfaces
may result in burns from steam. Do not let potholder touch hot
surface areas. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth.
11. DDOONNOOTTTTOOUUCCHHSSUURRFFAACCEEUUNNIITTSSOORRAARREEAASSNNEEAARRUUNNIITTSS..
Surface areas may become hot enough to cause burns. Surface
elements may be hot even though they are dark in color. During
and after use, do not touch or let flammable materials contact
heating elements until they have had time to cool.
12. 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 toward
the center of the range, and so that it does not extend over
adjacent burners.
13. Keep area clean and free from combustible material, gasoline, and
other flammable liquids. Never use your oven as a storage space.
Combustible items (paper, plastic, etc.) may ignite and metallic
items may become hot and cause burns.
14. A risk of tip-over may result if the appliance is not installed in
accordance with installation instructions including excessive
loading of the oven door or from abnormal usage.
15. Storage cabinet area above the unit must be 36” (91.4 cm) and
cannot project more than 13” (33.0 cm) outward from the rear wall.
Beware of potential hazards associated with retrieving items from
such cabinets when the unit is in operation.
16. Do not heat unopened food containers; buildup of pressure may
cause the container to explode and result in injury.
17. Never sit, step, stand, or lean on any part of the oven, or injury
may result.
18. Use care when opening oven door. Let hot air or steam escape
before removing or replacing food. Always position 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.
19. Do not clean door gasket. It is essential for a good, tight seal.
Care should be taken not to rub, damage, or move the gasket.
20. No commercial oven cleaner or oven liner protective coating of
any kind should be used in or around any part of the oven.
4
21. Before self-cleaning the oven, remove broiler pan, broiler grid, oven
racks, rack supports, and other utensils. Do not use your oven to
clean other parts. A fan noise should be hear sometime during the
cleaning cycle, if not, call service before self-cleaning again.
WWAARRNNIINNGG::When self-cleaning, surfaces may get hotter than
usual, therefore, children should be kept away.
22. DDOONNOOTTTTOOUUCCHHHHEEAATTIINNGGEELLEEMMEENNTTSSOORRIINNTTEERRIIOORRSSUURRFFAACCEESS
OORROOVVEENN..Heating elements may become 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 oven may become hot enough to cause burns, such
as the oven vent opening, the surface near the vent opening, and
the oven door window.
23. Clean rangetop with caution. If a wet sponge or cloth is used to
wipe spills on hot cooking area, be careful to avoid steam burn.
Some cleansers can produce noxious fumes if applied to hot
surface.
24. Do not cook on a broken rangetop. Spillovers or cleaning solution
may penetrate a broken glasstop and create a risk of electrical
shock. Contact a qualified technician immediately should your
rangetop become broken.

Each cook has his or her own preference for the particular
cooking utensils that are most appropriate for the type cooking being
done. Only certain types of glass, glass/ceramic, earthern ware, or
other glazed utensils are suitable for glass rangetop use without
breaking due to the sudden change in temperature. As with any
cookware, yours should be in good condition and free from excessive
dents on the bottom to provide maximum performance and
convenience.

In Maxi-Broil, heat is radiated from
both broil elements, located at the
top of the oven cavity at full power.
Broiling speed is determined by the
distance between the foods and the
broil elements. The Mini-Broil setting
is designed for “slow” broiling. ONly

This range features an automatic
pyrolytic self-cleaning cycle. During
this cycle, the oven reaches elevated
temperatures in order to burn off soils

With the temperature control on 175oF
(79.4 oC), warm air is radiated from the
bake element in the bottom of the
oven cavity and is circulated by a
motorized fan in the rear of the oven.
Over a period of time, the water is
removed from the food by
evaporation. Removal of water
inhibits growth of microorganisms and
retards the activity of enzymes. It is
important to remember that
dehydration does not improve the
quality , so only fresh, top-quality
foods should be used.
CCOONNVVEECCTTIIOONNDDEEFFRROOSSTT
With temperature control off, air is
circulated by a motorized fan in the
rear of the oven. The fan accelerates
natural defrosting of the food without
heat. To avoid sickness and food
waste, do not allow defrosted food to
remain in the oven for more than two
hours.
OOvveennFFuunnccttiioonnSSeelleeccttoorr
Each oven has an oven function selector. There are five settings on the

CCoonnvveeccttiioonn//TTrruuCCoonnvveeccTTMMBBaakkiinngg
Convection baking is the process of cooking food with a flow of heated
air circulating throughout the oven cavity. The even circulating of this
air equalizes the temperature throughout the oven cavity and
eliminates the hot and cold spots found in conventional ovens. This
feature can make a significant difference in foods prepared in the oven.
A major benefit of convection baking is the ability to prepare food in
quantity. The uniform air circulation makes this possible . . . a feature
not possible in a standard oven. With this heating system, the air is
distributed evenly throughout the oven by the hot air fan. The heat
therefore reaches the food to be baked or roasted more quickly. With
this heating method, foods can be baked and roasted at the same time
with minimal taste transfer, even when different dishes are involved,
such as cakes, fish, or meat. The hot air system is especially
economical when thawing frozen food.
RRaacckkPPoossiittiioonnss
Each convection oven is equipped with three tilt-proof racks, and each
convectional oven is equipped with two-tilt proof racks. All ranges
have six rack positions. Position 6 is the farthest from the oven bottom.
Position 1 is the closest to the oven bottom. The racks can be easily
removed and arranged at various levels. For best results with
conventional baking, do not use more than one rack at a time. It is
also recommended when using two racks, to bake with the racks on
position 3 and 5.

Preheating the oven is not necessary when using temperatures below
2500F. For best results, it is extremely important that you preheat the
oven when baking cakes and other items that have critical baking
temperatures. After the temperature control has been set, the Oven
Indicator light goes out when the oven reaches that temperature.
Preheating takes no longer than 10-15 minutes.
TTwwoo--EElleemmeennttBBaakkiinngg
This conventional baking/roasting is particularly suitable for dishes
which require a high temperature. Many cookbooks contain recipes to
be cooked in the conventional manner. This bake setting is only
recommended for single-rack baking.
TTooBBaakkee::
1. Arrange the oven racks in the desired position BEFORE heating the
oven. If cooking on two racks at the same time, use rack positions 3
and 5.
2. Turn the Oven Function selector to desired function. Cooking starts
immediately and stops when the Oven Function selector is turned
to OFF.
3. Set the Temperature Control to the desired temperature.
4. Place the food in the oven after the Oven Indicator light goes out.

•As a general rule, to convert conventional recipes to convection
recipes, reduce the temperature by 250F and the cooking time by
approximately 10 to 15%.
•Some recipes, especially those that are homemade, may require
adjustment and testing when converting from standard to convection
modes. If unsure how to convert a recipe, begin by preparing the
recipe in conventional bake. After achieving acceptable results, follow
the convection guidelines listed for the similar food type. If the food
is not prepared to your satisfaction during the first convection trial,
adjust only one recipe variable at a time (cooking time, rack position,
or temperature) and repeat the convection test. Continue adjusting
one recipe variable at a time until satisfactory results are achieved.
•Make sure the oven racks are in the desired positions before you turn
the oven on.
•For best results, always preheat the oven.
•Do not open the oven door frequently during baking. If you must
open the door, the best time is during the last quarter of the baking
time.
•Bake to shortest time suggested and check for doneness before
adding more time. For baked goods, a stainless steel knife placed in
the center of the product should come clean when done.
•Use good quality baking pans and sizes recommended in the recipe;
warped, dented, or burned pans should not be used.
•Shiny metal pans are preferred for baking items such as cakes,
cookies, and muffins because they produce light, golden crusts due to
heat being reflected by the metal.
•Glass pans may also be used for cake baking. Reduce the oven
temperature by 25 degrees when using a glass pan, but bake for the
same amount of time called for in the recipe.
•Pies are best baked in pans which absorb and hold heat. Glass,
enamel, dull-finished metal, and porcelain enamel finish give pies a
golden brown crust.

•When using large (15” x 13” [38 cm x 33 cm]) flat pans or trays that
cover most of the rack, rack positions 2 or 3 produce the best results.
•Stagger pans in opposite directions when two racks and several pans
are used. No pan should be directly above another.
•Allow 1 1/2” to 2” (3.8 cm to 5.1 cm) of air space around all sides of
each pan for even air circulation.
•When baking on more than one rack, it is recommended to use the
3rd and 5th position for more consistent even baking.
