COOKTOPUSE
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.
Electric igniters automatically light the surface burners when
control knobs are turned to LITE.
The left front and right rear burners provide the highest heat
setting. The left rear and right front burners allow more accurate
simmer control at the lowest setting,
Before setting a control knob, place filled cookware on the grate.
Do not operate a burner using empty cookware or while the grate
is vacant.
To Set:
1. Push in and turn knob counterclockwise to LITE,
All four surface burners will click. Only the burner with the
control knob turned to LITE will produce a flame.
2. Turn knob anywhere between HI and LO. Use the following
chart as a guide when setting heat levels.
SETTING RECOMMENDED USE
LITE • Litethe burner.
HI • Start food cooking.
• Bring liquid to a boil.
BETWEEN • Hold a rapid boil.
HI and LO • Quickly brown or sear food.
• Fry or saute foods.
• Cook soups, sauces and gravies.
• Stew or steam foods.
LO • Keep food warm.
• Melt chocolate or butter.
• Simmer.
REMEMBER: When range is in use or (on some
models) during the Self=Cleaning cycle, the entire
cooktop area may become hot,
Power failure
In case of prolonged power failure, the surface burners can be
lighted manually. Hold a lit match near a burner and turn knob
counterclockwise to LITE, After burner lights, turn knob to
setting.
IMPORTANT: Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and
ventilation air around the burner grate edges.
Before cleaning, make sure all controls are off and the oven and
cooktop are cool. Do not use oven cleaners, bleach or rust
removers,
Burner cap: Always keep the burner cap in place when using a
surface burner. A clean burner cap will help prevent poor ignition
and uneven flames. Always clean the burner cap after a spillover
and routinely remove and clean the caps according to the
"Cleaning" section,
A. Burner cap
B. Burner base
C. Alignment pins
D. Igniter
E. Gas tube opening
Gas tube opening: Gas must flow freely throughout the gas tube
opening for the burner to light properly. Keep this area free of soil
and do not allow spills, food, cleaning agents or any other
material to enter the gas tube opening. Protect it from spillovers
by always using a burner cap.
B
A. _-_V_"(25-38 mm)
B. Burner ports
Burner ports: Check burner flames occasionally for proper size
and shape as shown above. A good flame is blue in color, not
yellow. Keep this area free of soil and do not allow spills, food,
cleaning agents or any other material to enter the burner ports.

To Clean:
1. Remove the burner cap from the burner base and clean
according to "Cleaning" section.
2. Clean the gas tube opening with a damp cloth,

B. Correct
5. Turn on the burner. If the burner does not light, check cap
alignment. Ifthe burner still does not light, do not service the
sealed burner yourself. Contact a trained repair specialist.
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 1"
(2.5 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.
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.
Griddles with nonstick surfaces should not be used in the broiler,
Use the following chart as a guide for cookware material
characteristics.
COOKWARE CHARACTERISTICS

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.
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.
• On those models with bottom vents, do not block or cover
the oven bottom vents.
• 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.

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
1/2"(1.25 cm) more and read again. Ifthe temperature drops,
cook the meat or poultry longer.
• Check all meat in 2 or 3 places.

A. Oven vent cap
The oven vent should not be blocked or covered since it allows
the release of hot air and moisture from the oven. Blocking or
covering the vent will cause poor air circulation, affecting cooking
and cleaning results. Do not set plastics, paper or other items
that could melt or burn near the oven vent.
The oven automatically regulates the heat levels to maintain a
precise temperature range for optimal cooking results. During
preheat, both the top and bottom burners will cycle on and off.
During bake, just the bottom burner will cycle on and off.
To Bake or Roast:
Before baking and roasting, position the 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 it is recommended in the recipe.
1. Press BAKE.
Press the TEMP "up" or "down" arrow pads (buttons) to enter
a temperature other than 350°F (175°C). Press the "up" or
"down" pads (buttons) to raise or lower the temperature in
5°F/5°C increments.
2= Press START.
A preheat time will count down, and "PrE" will appear on the
display. The oven control automatically sets preheating times
based on the oven temperature you select.
When the actual oven temperature is reached, the set
temperature will replace "PrE" on the display.
When the set temperature is reached, if on, one tone will
sound.
3. Press OFF/CANCEL when finished cooking.
The temperature can be changed any time after pressing START.
Preheating
Preheat temperatures are affected by varying factors such as
room temperature and peak energy usage times. It is normal for
the temperature showing on the display and the actual oven
temperature to differ.
Waiting an additional 10 minutes after the preheat conditioning
time ends to put food in the oven is suggested when baking
foods with leavening ingredients, such as yeast, baking powder,
baking soda and eggs.
Broiling uses direct radiant heat from the broil burner to cook
food. During broiling, the broil burner cycles on and off in
intervals to maintain the oven temperature.
If the oven door is opened during broiling, the broil burner will
turn off immediately and come back on once the door is closed.
• Use only the broiler pan and grid provided with the appliance.
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 inthe heated
oven, making cleaning more difficult.
To Broil:
Before broiling, position the rack according to the Broiling Chart.
Position food on the grid in the broiler pan, then place it in the
center of the oven rack with the longest side parallel to the door.
It is not necessary to preheat the oven before putting food in,
unless recommended in the recipe.
Close the door.
1. Press BROIL.
2. Press START.
The set oven temperature will appear on the display until the
oven is turned off.
3. Press OFF/CANCEL when finished cooking.
To Vari Broil:
Changing the temperature when custom broiling allows more
precise control when cooking. The lower the temperature, the
slower the cooking. Thicker cuts and unevenly shaped pieces
of meat, fish and poultry may cook better at lower broiling
temperatures.
1. Press CUSTOM BROIL. "HI" will appear on display.
Press the TEMP "up" or "down" arrow pads to enter a
temperature other than 500°F (260°C). The broil range can
be set between 300°F and 525°F (149°C and 274°C). "HI" will
appear instead of 525°F (274°C).
2. Press START.
The set oven temperature will appear on the oven display
until the oven is turned off.
3. Press OFF/CANCEL when finished cooking.

Food Poisoning Hazard
Do not let food sit in oven more than one hour
before or after cooking.
Doing so can result in food poisoning or
sickness.
Timed Cooking allows the oven to be set to turn on at a certain

RANGECARE
Burn Hazard
Do not touch the oven during the
Self-Cleaning cycle.
Keep children away from oven during
Self-Cleaning cycle.
Failure to follow these instructions can result
in burns.
IMPORTANT: The health of some birds is extremely sensitive to
the fumes given off during the Self-Cleaning cycle. Exposure to
the fumes may result in death to certain birds. Always move birds
to another closed and well ventilated room.
Self-clean the oven before it becomes heavily soiled. Heavy soil
results in longer cleaning and more smoke.
Keep the kitchen well-ventilated during the Self-Cleaning cycle to
help get rid of heat, odors, and smoke.
Do not block the oven vent(s) during the Self-Cleaning cycle.
Air must be able to move freely. Depending on your model, see
"Oven Vent" section.
Do not clean, rub, damage or move the oven door gasket. The
door gasket is essential for a good seal.
Prepare Oven:
• Remove the broiler pan, grid, cookware and bakeware and,
on some models, the temperature probe from the oven.
• Remove any foil from the oven because it may burn or melt,
damaging the oven.
• Remove oven racks to keep them shiny and easy to slide.
See "Cleaning" section for more information.
Hand clean inside door edge and the 1V2" (3.8 cm) area
around the inside oven cavity frame, being careful not to
move or bend the gasket. This area does not get hot enough
during self-cleaning to remove soil. Do not let water, cleaner,
etc. enter slots on door frame. Use adamp cloth to clean this
area.
Wipe out any loose soil to reduce smoke and avoid damage.
At high temperatures, foods react with porcelain. Staining,
etching, pitting or faint white spots can result. This will not
affect cooking performance.
How the Cycle Works
IMPORTANT: The heating and cooling of porcelain on steel in the
oven may result in discoloring, loss of gloss, hairline cracks and
popping sounds.
The Self-Cleaning cycle uses very high temperatures, burning
soil to a powdery ash.
The oven is preset for a 3 hour 30 minute clean cycle, but the
time can be changed. Suggested clean times are 2 hours
30 minutes for light soil and between 3 hours 30 minutes to
4 hours 30 minutes for average to heavy soil.
Once the oven has completely cooled, remove ash with a damp
cloth.
The oven light will not work during the Self-Cleaning cycle.
To Self-Clean:
Before self-cleaning, make sure the door is closed completely or
it will not lock and the cycle will not begin.
1. Press AUTO CLEAN.
2. Press the HOUR and MIN "up" or "down" arrow pads to set a
clean time other than 3 hours 30 minutes. The clean time can
be set between 2 hours 30 minutes and 4 hours 30 minutes.
3. Press START.
The oven door will automatically lock. "LOCKED" will appear
on the display. The door will not unlock until the oven cools.
When the cycle is complete and the oven cools, "End" will
appear on the oven display and "LOCKED" will disappear.
4. Press OFF/CANCEL or open the oven door to clear the oven
display.
To Delay Start Self-Clean:
Before delay starting Self-Clean, make sure the clock is set to the
correct time of day. See "Clock" section. Also, make sure the
door is dosed completely or it will not lock and the cycle will not
begin.
1. Press AUTO CLEAN.
Press the HOUR and MIN "up" or "down" arrow pads to set a
clean time other than 3 hours 30 minutes. The clean time can
be set between 2 hours 30 minutes and 4 hours 30 minutes.
2.
3. Press STOP TIME.
Press the HOUR and MIN "up" or "down" arrows pads to
enter the time of day to stop.
Press START.
The start time is automatically calculated and displayed.
The door will automatically lock and "LOCKED," "CLEAN"
and "DELAY TIMED" will appear on the display. The door will
not unlock until the oven cools.
When the start time is reached, the oven will automatically
turn on.
When the cycle is complete and the oven cools, "End" will
appear on the display and "LOCKED" will disappear.
Press any pad or open the oven door to clear the oven
display.
To Stop Self-Clean any time:
Press OFF/CANCEL. If the oven temperature is too high, the door
will remain locked. It will not unlock until the oven cools.
