USING YOUR RANGE
USING THE SURFACE BURNERS
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.
Using POWER Burner
POWER Burner is an adjustable setting for the left
front burner which provides an ultra-high heat setting.
It can be used to rapidly bring liquid to a boil and to
cook large quantities of food.
Using ACCUSIMMER
ACCUSIMMER is an adjustable setting for the right
rear burner. It allows more accurate simmer control at
the lowest setting.
Easy ways to save energy
•To help shorten your cooking time, use the least
amount of liquid possible.
•Preheat your pots and pans only when
recommended and for the shortest time possible.
•Start your food on a higher heat setting, then turn
the control to a lower setting to finish cooking.
wWARNING
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.
RECOMMENDED USE
•To light the burner.
•To provide highest heat
setting.
•To start food cooking.
•To bring liquid to a boil.
•To hold a boil.
•To fry chicken or pancakes.
•For gravy, pudding, and icing.
•To cook large amounts of
vegetables.
•To keep food warm.
•To simmer.
•To provide lowest
simmer/heat setting.
•To melt chocolate or butter.

Burner heat settings
Use the following chart as a guide.
Using the control knobs
Your range comes with electric ignitors. Electric
ignitors automatically light the burners each time
you turn the control knobs to LIGHT.
•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
LIGHT position. The
clicking sound is the
ignitor sparking. Make
sure the burner has lit.
•To stop the clicking
sound after the burner
lights, turn the control
knob to the cook
setting you want. You
can set the control knob
anywhere between HIGH and LOW.
NOTE: All four electric ignitors will click at the same
time. However, the burner with the control knob
turned to LIGHT is the one that will ignite.

USING YOUR RANGE
USING THE SURFACE BURNERS (CONT.)
In case of a prolonged power failure
You can manually light surface burners. Hold a lit
match near a burner and turn the control knob to
the LIGHT position. After the burner lights, turn the
control knob to the setting you want.
Home canning information
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 (2.5 cm) outside the
burner area.
•Do not place your canner on 2 surface burners
at the same time.
•Start with hot water. This reduces the time
the control is set on high. Reduce the heat
setting to the lowest position needed 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.
Using the right cookware makes a
big difference
•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.
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
ceramic glass • Heats slowly and unevenly.
• Use on low 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
enamel-on-cast iron • See cast iron and stainless steel.
Stainless steel • Heats quickly but unevenly.
•
A core or base of aluminum or copper on the cookware provides
even heating.
• Can be coated with porcelain enamel.
CHARACTERISTICS OF COOKWARE MATERIALS

USING YOUR RANGE
Positioning racks and pans
Place the oven 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 5 cm (2 inches) of space
around each pan and between pans and oven
walls.
Extra oven rack position (roasting rack)
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.

BEST USED FOR GUIDELINES
USING ALUMINUM FOIL
NOTE: Do not line the oven bottom with foil or other
liners. It could affect the
oven surface as well as
the quality of your
baking.
•Do not cover the
entire rack with
aluminum foil. It will
reduce air circulation
and give you poor
cooking results.
•Use aluminum foil to catch spillovers from pies or
casseroles by placing foil on the oven rack below.
Foil should be turned up at edges and be at least
1 inch (2.5 cm) 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.

unless your recipe
recommends it.
NOTE: The oven will
cook normally even
though the preheat
conditioning timer is

Roasting meats and poultry
•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.

A preheat conditioning time counts down the
approximate preheat time after the oven
temperature has been set and the start pad has
been pressed. The oven control automatically
sets preheating times based on the oven
temperature you select:
•For 245°F (118°C) and less, the preheating
time is 4 minutes.
•For 250°F-445°F (121°C-229°C), the preheating
time is 10 minutes.
•For above 450°F (232°C), the preheating time
is 15 minutes.
As the preheat conditioning ends, the selected
oven temperature replaces “PrE” on the display
and the time of day reappears. You will hear a
1-second tone, indicating the oven is ready to use.
The ACCUBAKE* system electronically regulates
the preheat time and temperature to maintain a
precise temperature range for the best cooking
results. The preheat and set temperatures may
be different at the end of the countdown. This
is normal.
NOTES:
•When the oven temperature is greater than 170°F
(77°C), no preheating time will be shown on the
display.
•You can change the temperature setting any
time after pressing START/ENTER. You do not
have to press START/ENTER again.
•The preheating time will not change if you reset
t he temperature before the countdown time ends.
•If you are baking/roasting while the minute
timer is counting down, you can see the set
baking/roasting temperature for 5 seconds by
pressing BAKE.
Saving energy
•To avoid loss of heat, open the oven door as little
as possible.
•Use a 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.

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 offset temperature by
following the steps below.
1. Press and hold BAKE for 5 seconds.
The display will show the current offset
temperature, for example “0,” if you have not
already adjusted the temperature.
2. Set the new offset temperature.
Press sto raise the temperature or tto lower
the temperature in 10°F (6°C) amounts. You can
set the temperature change to as low as -30°F
(-17°C) or as high as +30°F (+17°C). A minus (-)
sign will appear before the number when de-
creasing 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.
3. Enter the adjustment.
NOTE: You must press START/ENTER or your
changes will not be made.
To display temperatures in °C instead of °F:
Press and hold the custom broil pad for 5 seconds.
You will hear a short tone and the
temperatures displayed will switch to °C.
To switch back to °F, repeat the
instructions above. Whenever you switch,
“°C” or “°F” will be displayed for 5 seconds.
How to determine the amount of
adjustment needed
The chart at the right tells you how much to adjust
the offset temperature to get the cooking results
you want. You can figure out cooking results by the
amount of browning, moistness, and rising times for
baked foods.
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.

To custom broil at a lower temperature:
•If your food is cooking too fast, press the ▼temp
pad until 325°F (163°C) shows on the small display.
•If you want your food to broil slower from the start,
press CUSTOM BROIL and press the ▼ temp pad
so a temperature between 300°F and 525°F
(149°C and 274°C) shows on the small display.
Press START/ENTER.
Lower temperature settings let the broil heating
element cycle and slow cooking results. The lower
the temperature, the slower the cooking.

Broiling guidelines
•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.
USING YOUR RANGE
continued on next page
•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.

Broiling guidelines (cont.)
Recommended rack positions are numbered from
the bottom (1) to the top
(5). For best results,
place food 3 inches
(7 cm) or more from the
broil burner and turn
meat after approximately
2⁄3of the broiling time.
Turn chicken pieces after
approximately half of the
broiling time. Very thin
cuts, such as fish fillets,
may not need to be turned at all. Lobster tails are
not turned.

The electronic MEALTIMER control will turn the
oven on and off at times you set, even when you
are not around.
Delayed time baking/roasting is ideal for foods
that do not need a preheated oven, like meats and
casseroles. Do not use delayed time cooking for
cakes, cookies, etc. – they will not rise properly.
Before using the electronic MEALTIMER
control, make sure the clock is set to the correct
time of day. (See the “Setting the clock” section.)
To start baking/roasting now and stop
automatically:
1. Place the oven rack(s) where you need them and
put your food in the
oven. To place your
racks correctly, see
“Positioning racks”
under “Using the Oven”
earlier in this section.
2. Choose the bake setting.
3. Set the temperature (optional).
Do this step if you want to set a temperature
other than 350°F (177°C). Press ▲to raise the
temperature or ▼to lower the temperature in
5°F (3°C) amounts. Use these pads until the
temperature you want shows on the small
display.
4. Press COOK TIME.
