and plastic bags after unpacking the appliance. Never allow children to play with packaging material.

Proper Installation—Be sure your appliance is properly installed and grounded by a qualified technician in accordance in the United States with National Electrical

Code ANSI/NFPA No. 70—latest edition and local code requirements, and in Canada

with CSA C22.1 PART 1—latest edition and local code requirements. Install only per installation instructions provided in the literature package for this appliance.

Ask your dealer to recommend a qualified technician and an authorized repair service.

Know how to disconnect the electrical power to the range at the circuit breaker or fuse box in case of an emergency.

• User Servicing—Do not repair or replace any part of the appliance unless specifically

recommended in the manuals. All other servicing should be done only by a qualified technician to reduce the risk of personal injury and damage to the appliance.

Never modify or alter the construction of a range by removing leveling legs, panels, wire covers, anti-tip brackets/screws, or any other part of the product.

Stepping, leaning or sitting on the door or drawer of this appliance

can result in serious injuries and may also cause damage to the appliance. Do not allow children to climb or play around the appliance. The weight of a child on an open door may cause the appliance to tip, resulting in serious burns or other injury. An open drawer, when hot, may cause burns.

Do not use the oven or warmer drawer (if equipped) for storage.

• Storage in or on Appliance—Flammable materials should not be stored in an oven,

near surface units or in the drawer (if equipped). This includes paper, plastic and cloth items, such as cookbooks, plasticware and towels, as well as flammable liquids. Do not store explosives, such as aerosol cans, on or near the appliance. Flammable materials may explode and result in fire or property damage.

Do not store items of interest to children in the cabinets above the

appliance. Children climbing on the range to reach items could be seriously injured.

• Do not leave children alone. Children should not be left alone or unattended in the

area where an appliance is in use. They should never be allowed to sit or stand on any part of the appliance.

Safety 5

• DO NOT TOUCH SURFACE UNITS, AREAS NEAR THESE UNITS, OVEN HEATING

ELEMENTS OR INTERIOR SURFACES OF THE OVEN OR WARMER DRAWER (if

equipped). Both surface units and oven heating elements may be hot even though they are dark in color. Areas near surface units may become hot enough to cause burns.

During and after use, do not touch, or let clothing or other flammable materials touch these areas until they have had sufficient time to cool. Among these areas are the cooktop, surfaces facing the cooktop, the oven vent openings and surfaces near these openings, oven door and window.

• Wear Proper Apparel—Loose-fitting or hanging garments should never be worn

while using the appliance. Do not let clothing or other flammable materials contact hot surfaces.

Never use your appliance for warming or heating the room.

• Do Not Use Water or Flour on Grease Fires—Smother the fire with a pan lid, or use baking soda, a dry chemical or foam-type extinguisher.

• When heating fat or grease, watch it closely. Fat or grease may catch fire if allowed to become too hot.

• Use Only Dry Potholders—Moist or damp potholders on hot surfaces may result

in burns from steam. Do not let the potholders touch hot heating surface units or interior oven elements. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth instead of a potholder.

Do Not Heat Unopened Food Containers—Build up of pressure may cause the container to burst and result in injury.

Remove the oven door from any unused appliance if it is to be stored or discarded.

• IMPORTANT—Do not attempt to operate the oven during a power failure. If the

power fails, always turn the oven off. If the oven is not turned off and the power resumes, the oven may begin to operate again. Food left unattended could catch fire or spoil.

Electronic controllers can be damaged by cold temperatures. When you use your appliance for the first time, or if it has not been used for a long period of time, make sure that it has been exposed to a temperature above 0°C/32°F for at least 3 hours before connecting it to the power supply.

iMPoRtant instRuctions foR usinG youR cooktoP

• Know which knob controls each surface heating unit.

• Use Proper Pan Size—This appliance is equipped with one or more surface units of different sizes. Select utensils having flat bottoms large enough to cover the surface unit. The use of undersized utensils will expose a portion of the surface heating unit to direct contact and may result in ignition of clothing. Proper relationship of utensil to the surface unit will also improve efficiency.

Utensil Handles Should Be Turned Inward and Should Not Extend Over Adjacent

Surface Units—To reduce the risk of burns, ignition of flammable materials, and spillage due to unintentional contact with the utensil. The handle of the utensil should be positioned so that it is turned inward, and does not extend over adjacent surface unit.

Never Leave Surface Units Unattended—Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite, or a pan that has boiled dry may melt.

• Protective liners— Do not use aluminum foil to line oven bottom or any other part of the appliance. Only use aluminum foil as recommended for baking if used as a cover placed on the food. Any other used of protective liners or aluminum foil may result in a risk of electric shock or fire or a short circuit.

6 Safety

• Glazed Cooking Utensils—Only certain types of glass, glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed utensils are suitable for cooktop service without breaking due to the sudden change in temperature. Check the manufacturer’s recommendations for cooktop use.

• Do Not Use Decorative Surface Element Covers. If an element is accidentally turned on, the decorative cover will become hot and possibly melt. Burns will occur if the hot covers are touched. Damage may also be done to the cooktop.

foR Glass cooktoPs only

• Do Not Clean or Operate a Broken Cooktop —If cooktop should break, cleaning solutions and spillovers may penetrate the broken cooktop and create a risk of electric shock. Contact a qualified technician immediately.

• Clean Cooktop Glass with Caution—If a wet sponge or cloth is used to wipe spills on a hot cooking area, be careful to avoid a steam burn. Some cleaners can produce harmful fumes if applied to a hot surface.

• Avoid scratching the cooktop glass with sharp objects.

iMPoRtant instRuctions foR usinG youR oVen

• Use Care When Opening Door or Drawer—Stand to the side of the appliance when opening the door of a hot oven. Let hot air or steam escape before you remove or replace food in the oven/warmer drawer.

• Keep Oven Vent Ducts Unobstructed. The oven is vented at the front above the oven door (ceramic glass cooktop models) or through the right rear element (coil element models). Touching the surfaces in this area when the oven is operating may cause severe burns. Also, do not place plastic or heat-sensitive items on or near the oven vent. These items could melt or ignite.

• Placement of Oven/Warmer Drawer (if equipped) Racks. Always place oven racks in desired location while oven/drawer (if equipped) is cool. Remove all utensils from the rack before removing rack. If rack must be moved while oven is hot, use extreme caution. Use potholders and grasp the rack with both hands to reposition. Do not let potholders contact the hot oven element or interior of the oven/warmer drawer (if equipped).

• Do not use a broiler pan without its insert. The broiler pan and grid allow dripping fat to drain and be kept away from the high heat of the broiler.

Do not cover your broiler or warmer drawer (if equipped) grid with aluminum foil.

Exposed fat and grease could ignite.

• Do not touch a hot light bulb with a damp cloth. Doing so could cause the bulb to break. Disconnect the appliance or turn off the power to the appliance before removing and replacing light bulb.

about the ceRaMic Glass cooktoP

The ceramic cooktop has radiant surface elements located below the surface of the glass.

The design of the ceramic cooktop outlines the area of the surface element underneath. Make

sure the diameter of the pan matches the diameter of the element outline on the cooktop.

Heat is transferred up through the surface of the cooktop to the cookware. Only flat-bottom cookware should be used. The type and size of cookware, the number of surface elements in use and the settings, are all factors that will affect the amount of heat that will spread to areas beyond the surface elements. The areas surrounding the elements may become hot

enough to cause burns.

about the Radiant suRface eleMents

The element temperature rises gradually and evenly. As the temperature rises, the 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.

your range is equipped with radiant surface burners with different wattage ratings. The ability to heat food quicker and in larger volumes increases as the element wattage increases.

Note

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 glass cooktop. Cycling at the HI setting is normal and can also occur if the cookware is too small for the radiant element or if the cookware bottom is not flat (Refer to page 18 for using correct cookware instructions with the cooktop).

Please read detailed instructions for ceramic glass cooktop cleaning in the General Care

& Cleaning section and Solutions to Common Problems section of this Use and Care

Guide.

18 Setting Surface Controls

suRface cookinG utensils

Good PooR

Cookware should have flat bottoms that make good contact with the entire surface heating element. Check for flatness by rotating a ruler across the bottom of cookware. Be sure to follow the recommendations for using cookware that is shown in the illustrations at right.

• Flat bottom and straight

sides.

• Tight fitting lids.

• Weight of handle does not tilt pan. Pan is well balanced.

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

• Made of material that conducts heat well.

• Easy to clean.

• Always match pot diameter to element surface diameter.

• Curved and warped pan bottoms.

• Pan overhangs unit by more than 2.5 cm (1”).

• Heavy handle tilts pan.

• Pan is smaller than element.

note: Always use a cooking utensil for its intended purpose. Follow manufacturer’s instructions. Some utensils were not made to be used in the oven or on the cooktop.

Specialty pans such as lobster pots, griddles and pressure cookers may be used but must conform to the above recommended cookware requirements.

note: The size and type of cookware used will influence the setting needed for best cooking results.

cookWaRe MateRial tyPes

The cookware material determines how evenly and quickly heat is transferred from the surface element to the pan bottom. The most popular materials available are:

ALUMINUM - Excellent heat conductor. Some types of food will cause it to darken (Anodized aluminum cookware resists staining & pitting). If aluminum pans slide across the ceramic glass cooktop, they may leave metal marks which will resemble scratches. Remove these marks immediately.

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

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

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

PORCELAIN-ENAMEL on METAL - Heating characteristics will vary depending on base material. Porcelain-enamel 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.

Setting Surface Controls 19

settinG the cooktoP

The cooktop controls provide display to help set power levels for the cooking zones located on the cooktop. These settings work the same way as traditional knob settings except the settings are made using a touch sensitive panel and show settings using LED style displays.

Available cooktop settings

your control control provides different power level settings for each of the cooking or heating zones. These displays have keypads that allow the user to first activate ( ON/OFF) the needed element and then to quickly turn that element ON using 3 preset power levels

( lo, med or hi) - see figs. 2 through 5 -.

In addition to the automatic settings, the + and - keypads allows for more precise level adjustments between the automatic settings.

Single/Double element keypad on/off keypad

Element size indicators

Some cooktop zone positions display additional size keypads -

see fig 1- that allows the user to switch between single or dual elements sizes quickly whenever the cooking zone is active.

Hot Surface indicator

cautioN

Radiant surface elements may appear to have cooled after they have been turned off. the hot indicator light will turn on and will continue to glow until the glass cooktop has cooled down to a moderate level. the glass surface may still be hot and burns may occur if the glass surface is touched before the indicator light has turned off.

do not place plastic items such as salt and pepper shakers, spoon holders or plastic wrappings on

top of the range when it is in use. These items could melt or ignite. Potholders, towels or wooden spoons could catch fire if placed too close to the surface elements.

bRoilinG

This mode is best for meats, fish and poultry up to 1” thick. Broiling is a method of cooking tender cuts of meat by direct heat under the broil element of the oven. The high heat cooks quickly and gives a rich, brown outer appearance. The oven can be programmed to broil at any temperature from 300°F to 550°F with a default temperature of 550°F.

broiling tips:

• For optimum browning, preheat the broil element for 2 minutes.

• Broil one side until the food is browned; turn and cook on the second side. Season and serve.

• Always pull the rack out to the «stop» position before turning or removing food.

• Always use the broiler pan and its grid when broiling. It allows the dripping grease to be kept away from the high heat of the broil element (see Figure 1).

• For best broiling results, broil with the oven door slightly open.

DO NOT use the broil pan without the insert. DO NOT cover the broil pan insert with

foil. The exposed grease could catch fire. DO NOT use the roasting rack when broiling.

Cooking Modes 25

conVection bakinG

This mode of cooking enables you to obtain the best culinary results when baking with multiple pans and racks. Multiple rack baking may slightly increase cook time for some foods but the overall result is time saved. Most foods cooked in a standard oven will cook faster and more evenly with Convection Bake. Convection baking uses the three elements and a fan to circulate the oven’s heat evenly and continuously within the oven. The oven can be programmed for Convection baking at any temperature between 170°F to 550°F with a default temperature of 350°F.

convection baking tips:

• Always preheat your oven before using the Convection Bake mode.

• If your recipe cooking temperature has already been converted for convection baking there is no need to reduce your oven temperature.

If your recipe has not had the temperature converted for convection baking you can easily reduce the temperature using the Convection

Convert feature. Please see Convection Convert section on next page for further instruction on temperature conversion.

• Use tested recipes with times adjusted for convection baking when using this mode. With single rack convection baking some foods may have as much as a 25% reduction in cook time; check food at minimum time. Time reductions will vary depending on the amount and type of food to be cooked.

• When using Convection Bake with a single rack, place oven rack in position 3 or 4. If cooking on multiple racks, place the oven racks in positions 2 and 6 or 1, 4 and 7.

• Most bakeries (except cakes) should be baked on pans with no sides or very low sides to allow heated air to circulate around the food.

• Food baked on pans with a dark finish will cook faster.

44 General Care & Cleaning

cooktoP cleaninG and Maintenance consistent and proper cleaning is essential to maintaining your ceramic glass cooktop

Prior to using your cooktop for the first time, apply the recommended

Cleaning Creme to the ceramic surface. A sample of that cleaning creme is supplied with your cooktop and it is available in most hardware stores.

Clean and buff with a paper towel. This will make cleaning easier when soiled from cooking. The special cooktop cleaning cream leaves a protective finish on the glass to help prevent scratches and abrasions.

Sliding aluminum or copper clad bottom pans on the cooktop can cause metal markings on the cooktop surface. These marks should be removed

immediately after the cooktop has cooled using the cooktop cleaning cream. Metal marks can become permanent if not removed prior to future use.

Cookware (cast iron, metal, ceramic or glass) with rough bottoms can mark or scratch the cooktop surface. Do not slide anything metal or glass across the cooktop. Do not use your cooktop as a cutting board or work surface in the kitchen. Do not cook foods directly on the cooktop surface without a pan. Do not drop heavy or hard objects on the glass cooktop, they may cause it to crack or break.

warNiNg

do not use a cooktop cleaner on a hot cooktop. the fumes can be hazardous to your health, and can chemically damage the ceramic-glass surface.

For light to moderate soil:

Apply a few drops of CookTop® Cleaning Creme directly to the cooktop. Use a paper towel to clean the entire cooktop surface. Make sure the cooktop is cleaned thoroughly, leaving no residue. Do not use the towel you use to clean the cooktop for any other purpose.

For heavy, burned on soil:

First, clean the surface as described above. Then, if soils remain, carefully scrape soils with a metal razor blade scraper, holding scraper at a 30 degree angle to the surface. Remove loosened soils with cooktop cleaning cream and buff surface clean.

!

cautioN

damage to the ceramic glass cooktop may occur if you use scrub pad.

Plastic or foods with a high sugar content:

These types of soils must be removed immediately if spilled or melted onto the ceramic cooktop surface. Permanent damage (such as pitting of the cooktop surface) may occur if not removed

immediately. After turning the surface elements OFF, use a razor blade scraper or a metal spatula with a mitt and scrape the soil from the hot surface (as illustrated on previous page).

Allow the cooktop to cool, and use the same method for heavy or burned on soils.

Do not use the following on the ceramic glass cooktop:

• Do not use abrasive cleaners and scouring pads, such as metal and some nylon pads. They may scratch the cooktop, making it more difficult to clean.

• Do not use harsh cleaners, such as chlorine bleach, ammonia or oven cleaners, as they may etch or discolor the cooktop.

• Do not use dirty sponges, cloths or paper towels, as they can leave soil or lint on the cooktop which can burn and cause discoloration.

Special Caution for Aluminum Foil and Aluminum Cooking Utensils

Aluminum foil - Use of aluminum foil will damage the cooktop. Do not use thin aluminum cooking utensils or allow foil to touch the ceramic cooktop under ANy circumstances.

Aluminum utensils - The melting point of aluminum is much lower than that of other metals.

Care must be taken when aluminum pots or pans are used on the cooktop. If allowed to boil dry, not only will the utensil be destroyed, but it may fuse to, break or mark the ceramic glass surface, permanently damaging the cooktop surface.
