Important Safety Instructions  
Cooking Safety  
Child Safety  
Never heat an unopened food container in the oven. Pressure  
build-up may cause container to burst resulting in serious  
personal injury or damage to the appliance.  
CAUTION  
NEVER store items of interest to children in cabinets above  
an appliance. Children climbing on the appliance or on the  
appliance door to reach items could be seriously injured.  
Use dry, sturdy potholders. Damp potholders may cause burns  
from steam. Dish towels or other substitutes should never be  
used as potholders because they can trail across hot elements  
and ignite or get caught on appliance parts.  
NEVER leave children alone or unsupervised near the appli-  
ance when it is in use or is still hot. Children should never be  
allowed to sit or stand on any part of the appliance as they  
could be injured or burned.  
Wear proper apparel. Loose fitting or long hanging-sleeved  
apparel should not be worn while cooking. Clothing may ignite  
and cause burns if garment comes in contact with heating  
elements.  
Children must be taught that the appliance and utensils in it  
can be hot. Let hot utensils cool in a safe place, out of reach of  
small children. Children should be taught that an appliance is  
not a toy. Children should not be allowed to play with controls  
or other parts of the appliance.  
Always place oven racks in the desired positions while oven is  
cool. Slide oven rack out to add or remove food, using dry,  
sturdy potholders. Always avoid reaching into the oven to add or  
remove food. If a rack must be moved while hot, use a dry  
potholder. Do not let potholder contact hot element in oven.  
About Your Appliance  
Use racks only in the oven in which they were shipped/pur-  
chased.  
CAUTION  
Use care when opening the oven door. Let hot air or steam  
escape before removing or replacing food.  
NEVER use an appliance as a step to reach cabinets above.  
Misuse of appliance door, such as stepping, leaning or  
sitting on the door, may result in possible tipping of the  
appliance, breakage of door, and serious injuries.  
PREPARED FOOD WARNING: Follow food manufacturer’s  
instructions. If a plastic frozen food container and/or its cover  
distorts, warps, or is otherwise damaged during cooking,  
immediately discard the food and its container. The food could  
be contaminated.  
To prevent potential hazard to the user and damage to the  
appliance, do not use appliance as a space heater to heat or  
warm a room. Also, do not use the oven as a storage area for  
food or cooking utensils.  
Do not allow aluminum foil or meat probe to contact heating  
element.  
Always turn off all controls when cooking is completed.  
Do not obstruct the flow of air by blocking the oven vent.  
DO NOT TOUCH HEATING ELEMENTS OR INTERIOR SUR-  
FACES OF OVEN. Heating elements may be hot even though  
they are dark in color. Interior surfaces of any 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 opening, surface near this opening,  
oven door and window of oven door.  
Utensil Safety  
Follow the manufacturer’s directions when using oven cooking  
bags.  
This appliance has been tested for safe performance using  
conventional cookware. Do not use any devices or accessories  
that are not specifically recommended in this guide. Do not use  
eyelid covers, stove top grills or add-on oven convection  
systems. The use of devices or accessories that are not expressly  
recommended in this guide can create serious safety hazards,  
result in performance problems, and reduce the life of the  
components of the appliance.  
Do not touch a hot oven light bulb with a damp cloth as the  
bulb could break. Should the bulb break, disconnect power to  
the appliance before removing bulb to avoid electrical shock.  
If pan is smaller than element, a portion of the element will be  
exposed to direct contact and could ignite clothing or potholder.  
NEVER use aluminum foil to cover an oven rack or oven  
bottom. Misuse could result in risk of electric shock, fire, or  
damage to the appliance. Use foil only as directed in this  
guide.  
Only certain types of glass, glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware,  
or other glazed utensils are suitable for cooktop or oven service  
without breaking due to the sudden change in temperature.  
Follow utensil manufacturer’s instructions when using glass.

Important Safety Instructions  
Turn pan handle toward center of cooktop, not out into the  
room or over another surface element. This reduces the risk of  
burns, ignition of flammable materials, or spillage if pan is  
accidently bumped or reached by small children.  
caution. Use care to avoid steam burns if a wet sponge or cloth  
is used to wipe spills on a hot surface. Some cleaners can  
produce noxious fumes if applied to a hot surface.  
Clean only parts listed in this guide.  
Be sure utensil is large enough to properly contain food and  
avoid boilovers. Pan size is particularly important in deep fat  
frying. Be sure pan will accommodate the volume of food that  
is to be added as well as the bubble action of fat.  
Self-Clean Oven (select models)  
CAUTION  
Never let a pan boil dry as this could damage the utensil and  
the appliance.  
Before self-cleaning the oven, remove the oven racks,  
broiler pan, food and any other utensils. Wipe spillovers  
to prevent excessive smoke and flare-ups.  
Cooktop  
NEVER leave surface units unattended especially when using  
high heat. An unattended boilover could cause smoking and a  
greasy spillover can cause a fire.  
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.  
This appliance is equipped with different size surface elements.  
Select pans with flat bottoms large enough to cover element.  
Fitting pan size to element will improve cooking efficiency.  
Do not use oven cleaners or oven liners of any kind in or around  
any part of the self-clean oven.  
It is normal for the cooktop of the range to become hot during a  
self-clean cycle. Therefore, touching the cooktop during a clean  
cycle should be avoided.  
Coil Elements  
To prevent damage to removable heating elements, do not  
immerse, soak or clean in a dishwasher or self-clean oven. A  
damaged element could short resulting in a fire or shock  
hazard.  
Important Safety Notice and  
Warning  
The California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act  
of 1986 (Proposition 65) requires the Governor of California to  
publish a list of substances known to the State of California to  
cause cancer or reproductive harm, and requires businesses to  
warn customers of potential exposures to such substances.  
Make sure drip bowls are in place as absence of these bowls  
during cooking could damage wiring.  
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.  
Users of this appliance are hereby warned that when the oven is  
engaged in the self-clean cycle, there may be some low-level  
exposure to some of the listed substances, including carbon  
monoxide. Exposure to these substances can be minimized by  
properly venting the oven to the outdoors by opening the  
windows and/or door in the room where the appliance is  
located during the self-clean cycle.  
Deep Fat Fryers  
Use extreme caution when moving the grease pan or dispos-  
ing of hot grease. Allow grease to cool before attempting to  
move pan.  
IMPORTANT NOTICE REGARDING PET BIRDS: Never keep  
pet birds in the kitchen or in rooms where the fumes from the  
kitchen could reach. Birds have a very sensitive respiratory  
system. Fumes released during an oven self-cleaning cycle may  
be harmful or fatal to birds. Fumes released due to overheated  
cooking oil, fat, margarine and overheated non-stick cookware  
may be equally harmful.  
Ventilating Hoods  
Clean range hood and filters frequently to prevent grease or  
other flammable materials from accumulating on hood or filter  
and to avoid grease fires.  
When flaming foods under the hood, turn the fan on.  
Cleaning Safety  
Clean cooktop with caution. Turn off all controls and wait for  
appliance parts to cool before touching or cleaning. Clean with

Surface Cooking  
Suggested Heat Settings  
The size, type of cookware and cooking operation will affect the  
heat setting.  
Surface Controls  
Use to turn on the surface elements. An infinite choice of  
heat settings is available from Low to High. The knobs can  
be set on or between any of the settings.  
Low (2): Use to keep foods  
warm and melt chocolate  
and butter.  
High (10): Use to bring  
liquid to a boil. Always  
reduce setting to a lower  
heat when liquids begin to  
boil or foods begin to cook.  
Setting the Controls  
1. Place pan on surface element.  
2. Push in and turn the knob in either direction to the desired  
heat setting.  
• The control panel is marked to identify which  
element the knob controls. For example, the  
graphic at right indicates left front element.  
Med. Low (3-4):  
Use to continue  
cooking covered  
foods or steam  
foods.  
3. There is an element “ON” indicator light on the control  
panel. When any surface control knob is turned on, the  
light will turn on. The light will turn off when all the  
surface elements are turned off.  
4. After cooking, turn knob to OFF. Remove pan.  
Medium (5-7): Use to  
maintain slow boil for  
large amounts of liquids  
and for most frying  
operations.  
Med. High (8-9): Use  
to brown meat, heat oil  
for deep fat frying or  
sauteing. Maintain fast  
boil for large amounts  
of liquids.  
(Style varies by model)  
CAUTION  
AFTER COOKING  
• Make sure surface unit is turned off.  
• Clean up messy spills as soon as possible.  
BEFORE COOKING  
• Always place a pan on the surface unit before you turn it  
on. To prevent damage to range, never operate surface  
unit without a pan in place.  
OTHER TIPS  
NEVER use the cooktop as a storage area for food or  
cookware.  
• If cabinet storage is provided directly above cooking  
surface, limit it to items that are infrequently used and can  
be safely stored in an area subjected to heat. Tempera-  
tures may be unsafe for items such as volatile liquids,  
cleaners or aerosol sprays.  
NEVER leave any items, especially plastic items, on the  
cooktop. The hot air from the vent may ignite flammable  
items, melt or soften plastics, or increase pressure in  
closed containers causing them to burst.  
DURING COOKING  
• Be sure you know which knob controls which surface  
unit. Make sure you turned on the correct surface unit.  
• Begin cooking on a higher heat setting then reduce to a  
lower setting to complete the operation. Never use a  
high heat setting for extended cooking.  
NEVER allow a pan to boil dry. This could damage the  
pan and the appliance.  
NEVER touch cooktop until it has cooled. Expect some  
parts of the cooktop, especially around the surface units,  
to become warm or hot during cooking. Use potholders  
to protect hands.  
NEVER allow aluminum foil, meat probes or any other  
metal object, other than a pan on a surface element, to  
contact heating elements.

Surface Cooking  
Coil Elements  
Coil Element Surface  
• When an element is on, it will cycle on and off to maintain the  
heat setting.  
Notes:  
• Clean cooktop after each use.  
• Coil elements are self-cleaning. Do not immerse in water.  
To remove: When cool, raise ele-  
ment. Carefully pull out and away  
from receptacle.  
• Wipe acidic or sugary spills as soon as the cooktop  
has cooled as these spills may discolor or etch the  
porcelain.  
To replace: Insert element ter-  
minals into receptacle. Guide the  
element into place. Press down on  
the outer edge of element until it  
sits level on drip bowl.  
To protect drip bowl finish:  
• To lessen discoloration and crazing, avoid using high  
heat for long periods.  
• Do not use oversized cookware. Pans should not  
extend more than 1-2 inches beyond the element.  
TERMINALS  
Drip Bowls  
• When home canning or cooking with big pots, use  
the Canning Element (Model CE1). Contact your  
dealer for details or call 1-877-232-6771 USA  
or 1-800-688-8408 Canada to order.  
The drip bowls under each surface element catch boilovers and  
mustalwaysbeused. Absenceofdripbowlsduringcookingmay  
damage wiring.  
To prevent the risk of electric shock or fire, never line drip bowls  
with aluminum foil.  
• Clean frequently. (See page 17.)  
Drip bowls will discolor (blue/gold stains) or craze over time if  
overheated. This discoloration or crazing is permanent. This will  
not affect cooking performance.

Adjusting the Oven Temperature  
Oven temperatures are carefully tested for accuracy at the  
factory. It is normal to notice some baking or browning  
differences between a new oven and an old one. As ranges  
get older, the oven temperature can shift.  
The oven will automatically turn off after 12 hours if you  
accidentally leave it on. This safety feature can be turned off.  
To cancel the 12-hour shut-off and run the  
oven continuously for 72 hours:  
1. Set the oven to bake (see page 9).  
You may adjust the oven temperature if you think the oven is  
not baking or browning correctly. To decide how much to  
change the temperature, set the temperature 25° higher or  
lower than your recipe recommends, then bake. The results  
of the “test” should give you an idea of how much to adjust  
the temperature.  
2. Press and hold the Clock pad for five seconds.

Care & Cleaning  
6. Wipe up sugary and acidic spillovers such as sweet  
potatoes, tomato, or milk-based sauces. Porcelain enamel  
is acid-resistant, not acid-proof. The porcelain finish may  
discolor if acidic spills are not wiped up before a self-clean  
cycle.  
Self-Clean Oven (select models)  
Note: For manual clean oven, see page 18.  
CAUTION
