ABOUT SURFACE COOKING

CAUTION

BEFORE COOKING

• Do not use the glass cooktop surface as a cutting board.

• Do not place or store items that can melt or catch fire on the glass cooktop, even when it is not being used.

• Turn the surface units on only after placing the cookware on them.

• Do not store heavy items above the cooktop surface. They could fall and damage it.

CAUTION

DURING COOKING

• Do not place aluminum foil or plastic items such as salt and pepper shakers, spoon holders, or plastic wrappings on the range when it is in use. The hot air from the vent could melt plastics or ignite flammable items.

• Make sure the correct surface unit is turned on.

• Never cook directly on the glass. Always use cookware.

• Always place the pan in the center of the surface unit you are cooking on.

• Never leave surface units unattended while using a high heat setting. Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers that may catch on fire.

• Turn the surface units off before removing cookware.

• Do not use plastic wrap to cover food. Plastic may melt onto the surface and be very difficult to remove.

CAUTION

AFTER COOKING

• Do not touch the surface units until they have cooled down.

• The surface may be still be hot and burns may occur if the glass surface is touched before it has cooled down sufficiently.

• Immediately clean spills on the cooking area to prevent a tough cleaning chore later.

• If cabinet storage is provided directly above the cooking surface, make sure that the items are infrequently used and can be safely stored in an area subjected to heat.

Temperatures may be unsafe for items such as volatile liquids, cleaners or aerosol sprays.

About the radiant surface elements

The temperature rises gradually and evenly. As the temperature rises, the radiant element will glow red. To maintain the selected setting, the element will cycle on and off. The heating element retains enough heat to provide a uniform and consistent heat during the off cycle. For efficient cooking, turn off the element several minutes before cooking is complete. This will allow residual heat to complete the cooking process.

Radiant elements have a limiter that allows the element to cycle ON and OFF, even at the HI setting. This helps to prevent damage to the ceramic cooktop. Cycling at the HI setting is normal and can occur if the cookware is too small for the radiant element or if the cookware bottom is not flat.

Using the warming center

The warming center, located in the back center of the glass surface, will keep hot, cooked food at serving temperature.

The surface warmer will not glow red like the cooking elements.

CAUTION

• Do not warm food on the warming center for more than two hours.

• Use only cookware and dishes recommended as safe for oven and cooktop use.

• Always use potholders or oven mitts when removing food from the warming center as cookware and plates will be hot.

• When warming pastries and breads, the cover should have an opening to allow moisture to escape.

• Do not use plastic wrap to cover foods. Plastic may melt onto the surface and be very difficult to clean.

• Food should be kept in its container and covered with a lid or aluminum foil to maintain food quality.

• Always start with hot food. Eating uncooked or cold food placed on the warming center could result in illness.

1. Turn the warming center on.

Press the WARMING CENTER ON/OFF pad.

USING THE PROPER COOKWARE

Using the right cookware can prevent many problems, such as uneven cooking or extended cooking times. Using the proper pans will reduce cooking times and cook food more evenly.

CORRECT INCORRECT

Check for flatness by rotating a ruler across the bottom of the cookware.

Flat bottom and straight sides.

• Tight fitting lids.

• Weight of handle does not tilt pan.

• Pan is well balanced.

• Pan size matches the amount of food to be prepared and the size of the surface element.

• Made of a material that conducts heat well.

• Always match pot diameter to element surface diameter.

Curved and warped pan bottoms.

Pan overhangs element by more than one-half inch.

Pan is smaller than element.

Heavy handle tilts pan.

CHOOSING THE PROPER COOKWARE

What your cookware is made of determines how evenly and quickly heat is transferred from the surface element to the pan bottom.

ALUMINUM - Excellent heat conductor. Some types of food will cause the aluminum to darken. (Anodized aluminum cookware resists staining & pitting.). If aluminum pans are slid across the ceramic cooktop, they may leave metal marks that resemble scratches. Remove these marks as soon as the cooktop cools down.

COPPER - Excellent heat conductor but discolors easily. May leave metal marks on ceramic glass (see above).

STAINLESS STEEL - Slow heat conductor with uneven cooking results. Is durable, easy to clean and resists staining.

CAST IRON - A poor conductor; retains heat very well. Cooks evenly once cooking temperature is reached. Not recommended for use on ceramic cooktops.

ENAMELWARE - Heating characteristics will vary depending on base material. Porcelainenamel coating must be smooth to avoid scratching ceramic cooktops.

GLASS - Slow heat conductor. Not recommended for ceramic cooktop surfaces because it may scratch the glass.

PROTECTING THE SMOOTHTOP SURFACE

Cleaning

• Clean the cooktop before using it for the first time.

• Clean your cooktop daily or after each use. This will keep your cooktop looking good and can prevent damage.

• If a spillover occurs while you are cooking, immediately clean the spill from the cooking area while it is hot to prevent a tough cleaning chore later. Using extreme care, wipe the spill with a clean dry towel.

• Do not allow spills to remain on the cooking area or the cooktop trim for a long period of time.

Do not use abrasive cleansing powders or scouring pads, which will scratch the cooktop.

Do not use chlorine bleach, ammonia, or other cleansers not specifically recommended for use on a glass-ceramic surface.

Preventing marks and scratches

• Do not use glass cookware. It may scratch the cooktop.

Do not place a trivet or wok ring between the cooktop and the pan. These items can mark or scratch the cooktop.

• Make sure the cooktop and the pan bottom are clean.

Do not slide metal pans across the cooktop.

Preventing stains

Do not use a soiled dish cloth or sponge to clean the cooktop surface. A film will remain, which may cause stains on the cooking surface after the area is heated.

• Continuously cooking on a soiled surface can result in a permanent stain.

Preventing other damage

• Do not allow plastic, sugar, or foods with high sugar content to melt onto the hot cooktop.

Should this happen, clean immediately.

• Do not let a pan boil dry as this will damage the cooktop and the pan.

Do not use the cooktop as a work surface or cutting board.

Do not cook food directly on the cooktop. Always use the proper cookware.

Breads and pastries brown more evenly.

results using multiple racks at the same time. Foods cooked on a single oven rack will generally cook faster

Tips for convection baking

The amount of time you save will vary depending on the amount and type of food you are cooking. When baking cookies or biscuits, you should use pans with no sides or very low sides to allow the heated air to circulate around the food. Using a pan with a dark finish will allow faster cooking times.

When using convection baking with a single rack, place the oven rack in position 4. If cooking on multiple racks, place the oven racks in positions 2 and 5 or positions 3, 5 and 6.

When baking a cake, using the bake mode will produce better results.

CONVECTION ROASTING

Convection roasting is good for cooking large tender cuts of meat, uncovered.

Heat comes from the top heating element. The convection fan circulates the heated air evenly over and around the food. Meat and poultry are browned on all sides as if they were cooked on a rotisserie. The heated air seals in juices quickly for a moist and tender product while, at the same time, creating a rich golden brown exterior.

How to set the oven for convection roasting

1. Start the convection roasting mode.

Press the CONV. ROAST pad. The default temperature is 350 °F.

2. Enter the temperature you want, eg. 400 °F, using the number pad.

3. Press the START/SET pad to begin convection roasting.

Conv. Roast and the adjusted oven temperature, eg. 400 °F, will appear in the display for 2 seconds.

The temperature display will start to change once the oven temperature reaches 150 °F.

A beep will sound 6 times when the oven reaches the adjusted oven temperature.

4. Turn off or cancel convection roasting by pressing the CLEAR/

OFF pad.

The convection oven fan shuts off when the oven door is opened.

DO NOT leave the door open for long periods of time while using convection cooking or you may shorten the life of the convection heating element.

SELF-CLEANING

This self-cleaning oven uses high temperatures (well above cooking temperatures) to burn off leftover grease and residue completely or reduce them to a finely powdered ash that you can wipe away with a damp cloth.

CAUTION

• During the self-cleaning cycle, the outside of the range will become very hot to the touch. Do not leave small children unattended near the appliance.

• Some birds are extremely sensitive to the fumes given off during the self-cleaning cycle of any range. Move birds to another well-ventilated room.

Do not line the oven walls, racks, bottom, or any other part of the range with aluminum foil. Doing so will result in poor heat distribution, poor baking results, and cause permanent damage to the oven interior. Aluminum foil will melt and adhere to the interior surface of the oven.

Do not force the oven door open. This can damage the automatic door locking system. Use care when opening the oven door after the self-cleaning cycle is complete. Stand to the side of the oven when opening the door to allow hot air or steam to escape. The oven may still be VERY HOT.

Before a self-cleaning cycle

Fig. 1

Fig. 2 Don’t hand clean the oven door gasket.

You may hand clean the door.

• We recommend venting your kitchen with an open window or using a ventilation fan or hood during the self-cleaning cycle.

• Remove the wire rack, broil pan, broil pan insert, all cookware, and any aluminum foil from the oven.

• Wipe up debris from the oven bottom. (Fig. 1)

• The silver-colored oven racks can be self-cleaned, but they will darken, lose their luster, and become hard to slide.

• Residue on the front frame of the range and outside the gasket on the door will need to be cleaned by hand. Clean these areas with hot water, soap-filled steel-wool pads, or cleansers such as Soft Scrub. Rinse well with clean water and dry.

• Do not clean the gasket. The fiberglass material of the oven door gasket cannot withstand abrasion. It is essential for the gasket to remain intact. If you notice it becoming worn or frayed, replace it. (Fig. 2)

• Make sure the oven light bulb cover is in place and the oven light is off.

STEAM-CLEANING

How to set the oven for steam-cleaning

For light cleaning, the Steam-cleaning function saves time and energy. For heavier-duty cleaning grease, use the self-cleaning function.

1. Remove all accessories from the oven.

2. Pour approximately 10 oz. (300 ml) of water onto the bottom of the empty oven and close the oven door.

Use normal water only, no distilled water.

3. Press the STEAM CLEAN pad.

4. Press the START/SET pad.

When the operation is complete, the display will blink and a beep will sound.

There will be a significant amount of water remaining on the bottom of the oven after a steam-cleaning cycle. Remove the residual water with a sponge or soft dry cloth.

When steam-cleaning, use exactly 10 oz. of water since this produces the best results.

If you press the STEAM CLEAN pad when the oven temperature is above 100˚F, Hot will appear in the display. Because these functions produce the best results when started while the oven is cool, we recommend that you wait until the oven has cooled down and Hot disappears from the display.

After a steam-cleaning cycle

• Take care when opening the door before a steam-cleaning procedure has ended. The water on the bottom is hot.

• Open the oven door and remove the remaining water with a sponge. Do not leave the residual water in the oven for any length of time. Wipe the oven clean and dry with a soft cloth. Do not forget to wipe under the oven door seal.

• Use a detergent-soaked sponge, a soft brush, or a nylon scrubber to wipe the oven interior.

Remove stubborn residue with a nylon scourer. You can remove lime deposits with a cloth soaked in vinegar.

• If the oven remains dirty, you can repeat the procedure once the oven has cooled.

• For heavy residue, such as grease left over from roasting, we recommend that you rub detergent into the residue before activating the steam-cleaning function.

• After cleaning, leave the oven door ajar at a 15 ° angle to allow the interior enamel surface to dry thoroughly.
