IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING YOUR
COOKTOP
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING YOUR
OVEN
• Never use your appliance for warming or heating the room.
WARNING
Use Proper Flame Size — Adjust flame size so it does not extend beyond the edge of the utensil. The use of undersized utensils will expose a portion of the burner flame to direct contact and may result in ignition of clothing. Proper relationship of utensil to flame will also improve efficiency.
• Know which knob controls each surface burner.
Place a pan of food on the burner before turning it on, and turn the burner off before removing the pan.
• Always turn knob to the full LITE position when igniting top burners. Visually check that burner has lit. Then adjust the flame so it does not extend beyond the edge of the utensil.
• Utensil handles should be turned inward and not extend over adjacent surface burners — 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 burners.
• Never leave surface burners unattended at high heat settings — Boil overs cause smoking and greasy spill overs that may ignite, or a pan that has boiled dry may melt.
• Glazed cooking utensils — Only certain types of glass, glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed utensils are suitable for cook top service without breaking due to the sudden change in temperature. Check the manufacturer’s recommendations for cook top use.
• When you are flaming foods under a ventilating hood, turn the fan on.
• Use care when opening oven door, lower oven door, or warmer drawer (some models). Stand to the side of the oven when opening the door of a hot oven. Let hot air or steam escape before you remove or replace food in the oven.
• Keep oven vent ducts unobstructed. Touching surfaces in this area when the oven is on may cause severe burns. Do not place plastic or heatsensitive items on or near the oven vent. These items can melt or ignite.
• Placement of Oven Racks - Always place oven racks in desired location while oven is cool. If rack must be moved while oven in hot, do not let potholders contact hot heating element in oven.
Use potholders and grasp the rack with both hands to reposition. Do not let potholders contact the hot heating elements in the oven. Remove all cookware and utensils before moving the rack.
• Do not use a broiler pan without its insert. Broiler pans and inserts allow dripping fat to drain away from the high heat of the broiler. Do not cover the broiler insert with aluminum foil; exposed fat and grease could ignite.
• 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.

Control locations of the gas surface burners
BEFORE SETTING SURFACE BURNERS
Assembly of the burner caps and burner grates
Your built-in range is equipped with gas surface burners with different BTU ratings. The ability to heat food quicker and in larger volumes increases as the burner size increases.
The small simmer burner (some models) is best used for simmering delicate sauces, etc. This burner is located at the right rear burner position on the cooktop ( Figure 1 ). The standard burner can be used for most surface cooking needs. The standard burners are located at the left front and left rear positions on the cooktop.
The power burners are best used for bringing large quantities of liquid rapidly up to temperature or when preparing larger quantities of food. The POWER burner is located at the right front position on the cooktop.
Regardless of size, always select cookware that is suitable for the amount and type of food being prepared. Select a burner and flame size appropriate to the pan. Never allow flames to extend beyond the outer edge of the pan.
It is very important to make sure that all of the surface burner caps and surface burner grates are installed correctly and at the correct locations.
1. Remove all packing material from cooktop area.
2. Discard all packing material (if applicable).
3. Unpack burner grates and position on the cooktop.
On round style burners, the burner cap lip ( Figure 2 ) should fit snug into the center of burner head and rest level. Refer to Figure 3 for correct and incorrect burner cap placement.
Once in place, you may check the fit by gently sliding the burner cap from side to side ( Figure 4 ) to be sure it is centered and firmly seated. When the burner cap lip makes contact inside the center of the burner head you will be able to hear the burner cap click.

Using Proper Cookware
BEFORE SETTING SURFACE BURNERS
Cookware Material Types
The most popular materials available are:
CAUTION
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.
Pot holders, towels or wood spoons could catch fire if placed too close to a flame. Do not operate the burner for an extended period of time without cookware on the grate. The finish on the grate may chip without cookware to absorb the heat.
Important: Do not place aluminum foil or any material that can melt on the range cooktop. If these items melt they may damage the cooktop.
For best cooking results, cookware should have flat bottoms that rest level on the burner grate. Before using cookware, check for flatness by rotating a ruler across the bottom of the cookware (
• Aluminum
Excellent heat conductor. Some types of food will cause it to darken (Anodized aluminum cookware resists staining & pitting).
• Copper
Excellent heat conductor but discolors easily.
• Stainless
Slow heat conductor with uneven cooking results.
Durable, easy to clean and resists staining.
• Cast Iron
A slow heat conductor however will retain heat very well. Cooks evenly once cooking temperature is reached.
• Porcelain - enamel on metal
Heating characteristics will vary depending on base material.
• Glass
Slow heat conductor.
Figure 7: Checking pan for flat bottom
Please note: The size and type of utensil used, and the amount and type of food being cooked will influence the burner flame setting needed for best cooking results.

BEFORE SETTING SURFACE BURNERS
Operating the gas surface controls Setting proper surface burner flame size
1. Place cooking utensil on surface burner.
2. Push the surface control knob in and turn counterclockwise out of the OFF position.
3. Release the knob and rotate to the LITE position
( Figure 8 ). Note: All four electronic surface ignitors will spark at the same time. However, only the burner you are turning on will ignite.
4. Visually check that the burner has a flame.
5. Turn the control knob counterclockwise to the desired flame size. The control knobs do not have to be set at a particular setting. Use the knob indicator settings to adjust the flame as needed. Do not cook with the surface control knob in the LITE position. (The electronic ignitor will continue to spark if the knob is left in the LITE position.)
Start on the highest control setting and adjust to the desired setting. Use the recommendations below as a guide for determining proper flame size for various types of cooking.
The size and type of utensil used and the amount of food being cooked will influence the setting needed.
Flame Size Type of Cooking
High Flame • Start most foods
• Bring water to a boil
• Pan broiling
Medium Flame
Low Flame
• Maintain slow boil
• Thicken sauces and gravies
• Steaming foods
• Keep foods cooking, poaching and stewing
Figure 8: Gas knob LITE position
Correct Incorrect
Figure 9: Gas flame adjustment
IMPORTANT
Never extend the flame beyond the outer edge of the utensil. A higher flame simply wastes heat and energy, and increases the risk of being burned by the gas flame.
In the event of an electrical power outage, the surface burners can be lit manually. To light a surface burner, hold a lit match to the burner head, then slowly turn the surface control knob to LITE. After burner lights turn the knob to desired setting.
NOTE
Settings based on using medium weight metal or aluminum pans. Settings may vary using other types of pans. The color of the flame is key to proper burner adjustment. A good flame is clear, blue, and hardly visible in a well-lighted room. Each cone of the flame should be steady and sharp. Clean burner if flame is yellow-orange.
12
Setting Surface Controls
Your gas appliance may be equipped with different sized surface burners. The ability to heat food quicker and in larger volumes increases as the burner size increases. It is important to select cookware that is suitable for the amount and type of food being prepared.
The smaller SIMMER burner (on some models) is best suited for simmering delicate sauces, etc.
The standard size burners may be used for most surface cooking needs. Some models are equipped with a center burner.
The larger POWER burners (on some models) or TURBO
BOIL burner (on some models) are recommended for bringing large quantities of liquid to temperature and when preparing larger quantities of food.

BEFORE SETTING OVEN CONTROLS
Oven vent location
The oven vent is located in the rear of the cooktop. When the oven is on, warm air passes through this vent. This venting is necessary for proper air circulation in the oven and good baking results. While the oven is in operation, it is normal for steam or moisture to appear near the vent.
Important: Do not block oven vent.
Removing, replacing, and arranging flat or offset oven racks
To arrange
• Always arrange the oven racks when the oven is cool
(prior to operating the oven).
To remove
• Pull the oven rack straight forward until it reaches the stop position. Lift up front of oven rack slightly and slide out.
To replace
• Place the oven rack on the rack guides on both sides of oven walls. Tilt the front of oven rack upward slightly and slide the oven rack back into place. Be sure oven racks are level before using.
Important: Remove all oven racks and accessories from the oven before performing a self clean operation.
Figure 14: Do not block oven vent location
CAUTION
Always use pot holders or oven mitts when using the oven. When cooking, the oven interior and exterior, oven racks and cooktop will become very hot which can cause burns.
Air circulation in the oven
For best results the air circulation must be optimal when baking. Allow a space of 2-4 inches (5-10 cm) around the cookware for proper air circulation.
Be sure pans and cookware do not touch each other, the oven door, sides, or back of the oven cavity.
Hot air must be able to circulate around cookware for even heat to reach the food.
WARNING
Protective Liners — Do not use aluminum foil to line the oven bottom. Only use aluminum foil as recommended in this manual. Improper installation of these liners may result in risk of electric shock or fire.

Baking Tips
For best bake results:
• Fully preheat the oven before baking items like cookies, cakes, biscuits, and breads.
• When using any single rack, position the rack so that the food is in the center of the oven.
• For best results when baking cakes using two oven racks, place racks in positions 2 and 4 (See Figure 22 ).
• When baking using two oven racks, position cookware as shown in Figure 23 . Allow at least 2 inches (5 cm) of space between cookware for proper air circulation.
• Dark or dull bakeware absorbs more heat than shiny bakeware. It may be necessary to reduce oven temperature and cook time to prevent overbrowning of some foods. Dark bakeware is recommended for pies. Shiny bakeware is recommended for cakes, cookies, and muffins.
• For batter and dough-based baked goods such as cakes, pastries, and breads, use the convection function for best results.

Convection Cooking
Multiple rack baking may increase cook time for some foods, but the overall result is time saved. Some food may cook faster and more evenly with convection bake.
Convection baking cycles the bake, broil and convection elements with a fan to circulate the heat evenly and continuously within the oven (See Figure 24 ).
Benefits of convection cooking:
• Multiple rack baking.
• Some foods cook faster, saving time and energy.

Convection baking tips:
• Fully preheat the oven before baking items like cookies, cakes, biscuits, and breads.
• If your recipe cooking temperature has already been converted for convection baking, there is no need to reduce your oven temperature. If not, you can easily reduce using the Convection Convert feature. Please
see “Setting Convection Convert” on page 26
for further instruction on temperature conversion.
• When using any single rack, position the rack so that the food is in the center of the oven.
• For best results when baking cakes using two oven racks, place racks in positions 2 and 4 (See Figure 25 ).
• When baking using two oven racks, position cookware as shown in Figure 26 . Allow at least 2 inches (5 cm) of space between cookware for proper air circulation.
• Dark or dull bakeware absorbs more heat than shiny bakeware. It may be necessary to reduce oven temperature and cook time to prevent overbrowning of some foods. Dark bakeware is recommended for pies. Shiny bakeware is recommended for cakes, cookies, and muffins.
• Do not open oven door too often. Doing so reduces oven temperature and may extend cooking time.
• Most baked goods (except cakes) should be baked on pans with no sides or low sides to allow air to circulate.

(reduced) temperature in the display. Convection convert may only be used with a convection bake cooking mode. It can be used with a delay start and bake time. For delay
start instructions and bake time instructions see page 24
. If convection conversion is used with the bake time and delay start features, CF (check food) will be displayed when 75% of the bake time complete. At this time the oven control will sound three long beeps at regular intervals until baking time is finished. The control will display End and continue to beep at regular intervals until off is pressed.
To set the oven for convection bake with a standard baking recipe temperature of 400°F:
1. Arrange interior oven racks.
2. Press convect. Convect and bake will flash and 350 will appear in the display.
3. Pres 4 0 0. Convect and bake will keep flashing and

or bake time instructions, see page 24
.
6. Press convect convert, and the oven temperature displayed will be 25°F lower than the original set temperature of 400°F. The actual oven temperature and the fan icon will be displayed. A beep will sound once the oven temperature reaches 375°F, and the display will show 375°, CONVECT, BAKE, and the fan icon.
7. Place food in the oven.
NOTE
When using a bake time under 20 minutes, the convection convert will not beep and display the CF message.
Pressing off will stop the feature at any time.
Bake, broil, and convection elements will cycle for better heat distribution and faster and more even cooking.
Important: Do not open the oven door often. Opening the door will reduce the temperature in the oven and may increase the cooking time necessary for best results.
Setting Convection Broil (some models)
Use this mode for thicker cuts of meat, fish, and poultry. The convection broiling gently browns the exterior and seals in the juices. Convection broiling uses the broil element and a fan to circulate the oven’s heat evenly and continuously within the oven.
The oven can be programmed for convection and normal broiling at any temperature between 400°F to 550°F with a default temperature of 550°F (See Table 1 ).
To set a convection broil temperature of 500°F:
1. Arrange oven racks first. Press convect. The display will show 350 and convect and bake will flash.
2. Press convect two more times. The display will show
550 and convect and broil will flash.
3. Press 5 0 0 using numeric keys.
4. Press start.
5. 500, CONVECT, BROIL, and the fan icon will show in the display.
6. Allow oven to preheat for 2 minutes then place food in the oven.
NOTE
The preheat tone will not sound for this feature. When broiling in the upper rack positions use the offset rack (if available).
Convection broiling tips:
• For optimum browning, preheat the broil element for 2 minutes. Always pull the rack out to the stop position before turning or removing food.
• Always use a broiler pan and its grid when broiling. It keeps grease away from the high heat of the broil element.
• Do not use the broil pan without the insert. Do not cover the broil pan insert with foil. The exposed grease could catch fire. If using a searing grill (available by mail order), preheat the grill for 5 to 10 minutes before placing your meat. Broil one side until the food is browned; turn and cook on the second side. Season and serve.
• Convection broiling is generally faster than conventional broiling. Check for doneness at the minimum recommended time.
26
Setting Convection Roast
This mode is best for cooking tender cuts of beef, lamb, pork, and poultry. Use this mode when cooking speed is desired. Convection roasting gently browns the exterior and seals in the juices. Convection roasting uses the bake element, convection element, broil element, and fan to circulate the heat evenly and continuously within the oven.
The oven can be programmed for convection roasting at any temperature between 170°F to 550°F with a default temperature of 350°F.
WARNING
Should an oven fire occur, do not open oven door, turn off the oven. If the fire continues, throw baking soda on the fire or use a fire extinguisher. Do not put water or flour on the fire. Flour may be explosive, and water can cause a grease fire to spread and cause personal injury.
To set a convection roast temperature of 375°F:
1. Arrange oven racks and place food in the oven.
2. Press convect. The display will show 350 and convect and bake will flash.
3. Press convect again. The display will show 350 and
convect and roast will flash.
4. Enter the desired roasting temperature using the number keys, i.e.: 3 7 5. Press start.
The actual oven temperature will be displayed. Convect,
roast, and the fan icon will be displayed. The bake, broil, and convection elements will also cycle for a better heat distribution.
Convection roasting tips:
• Use a broiler pan and grid, as well as a roasting rack
(available by mail order). The broiler pan will catch grease drippings, and the grid will help prevent spatters.
The roasting rack will hold the meat. Make sure the roasting rack is securely seated on the grid in the broiler pan. Do not use the broiler pan without the grid or cover the grid with aluminum foil.
• Pull the rack out to the stop position before removing food. Position food (fat side up) on the roasting rack.
• Do not open the oven door often. Doing so will reduce the temperature in the oven and may increase the cooking time necessary for best results.
• It’s not recommended to roast chicken on a roasting rack. Use a deep pan and place on rack position 1
(offset rack).

Setting Broil
This mode is best for meats, fish and poultry up to 1” thick.
Broiling cooks by direct heat. The broil key controls the broil feature. An optional searing grill, broiler pan, and insert are available via the enclosed accessories brochure (See
). The oven can be programmed to broil at any temperature from 400°F to 550°F with a default temperature of 550°F.
WARNING
If an oven fire occurs, do not open the oven door- turn the oven off. If the fire continues, use a fire extinguisher. Do not put water or flour on the fire. Flour may be explosive.
Always broil with oven door closed.
The broiler pan and the insert (some models) allow grease to drain and be kept away from the high heat of the broiler. Do not use the pan without the insert. Do not cover the insert with aluminum foil; the exposed grease could ignite. Use oven mitts when handling cookware.
• If using a searing grill, preheat oven 5 to 10 minutes before grilling.
To set a broil of 500°F:
1. Place the broiler pan insert on the broiler pan and place the food on the broiler pan insert.
2. Arrange the interior oven rack and place the broiler pan on the rack. Center the broiler pan directly under the broiler element. Preheat for 2 minutes before broiling.
3. Press broil. The display will show 550.
4. Press 5 0 0. If a lower broil temperature is desired
(minimum broil temperature setting is 400°F), press the desired temperature before continuing to Step 5.
5. Press start. The oven will begin to broil. 500° will appear in the display.
6. Broil on one side until 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.
7. To stop broiling, press off.
To ensure proper results use only Electrolux Home

Setting Slow Cook (some models)
The slow cook feature is best for cooking at lower temperatures for longer periods of time and works best for beef (ribs and brisket), pork roasts, and poultry dishes.
Slow cook has two settings: Lo 225°F (108°C) and Hi 275°F
(135°C). Both settings can be used with the following options:
• Bake time.
• Bake time with delay start.
WARNING
Food poisoning hazard: do not let food sit for more than one hour before or after cooking. Doing so may result in food borne illness.
Slow cook tips:
• Slow cooking meats may result in the outside of the meat turning dark; this is normal. Completely thaw all frozen foods before cooking. Preheating the oven is not necessary.
• When using a single oven rack, place in oven rack so food is centered in oven. Position multiple racks to accommodate size of cooking utensils when cooking multiple food items.
• Add any cream or cheese sauces during the last hour of cooking.
• Do not frequently open the oven door or leave the oven door open when checking food items. The more heat that is lost, the longer the food will need to cook.
• Cover foods to keep them moist or use a loose or vented cover to allow foods to turn crisp or brown.
Roasts may be left uncovered so browning can occur.
Cook times will vary depending on the weight, fat content, bone, and the shape of the roast.
To set slow cook:
1. Position oven racks and cookware in oven. Close the oven door. Press slow cook (some models). HI will appear in the oven display indicating the default setting is for high heat. If a low setting is needed, press slow
cook again to select the LO setting and release.
2. Press start.
3. To stop cooking at any time, press off.
4. Slow cook can be changed between Hi and Lo settings by pressing slow cook to toggle between the two settings. Press start to activate the new setting.

Cooking with Meat Probe
CAUTION
Do not use kitchen utensils to pull on the probe cable or handles. Always insert and remove the probe using the provided handles, as shown in Figure 29 , and always use a pot holder to protect hands from possible burns.
In some models the probe receptacle is found at the top left side of the oven cavity.
Use the probe feature for best results when cooking foods such as roasts, hams or poultry.
For meats like poultry and roasts, using a probe to check internal temperature is the safest method to ensure properly cooked food.
The probe feature, when set correctly, will signal an alert when the internal food temperature reaches the desired set target temperature.
When active, the probe displays the internal food temperature which is visible in the display during the cooking process. This eliminates any guesswork or the need to open the oven door to check the thermometer.
IMPORTANT
• Do not store the probe inside the oven. Use only the original probe provided. Connecting any other probe or device could result in damage to the oven control, electronics, and the receptacle.
• Before starting self clean, double check that the probe is removed from the oven interior. Defrost frozen foods completely before inserting the probe.
Proper placement of probe in food.
• Insert the probe so that the probe tip rests inside the center of the thickest part of meat or food (See
Figure 30 ). For best results, do not allow the probe temperature sensor to contact bone, fat, gristle, or the cookware.
Insert probe tip to center of food receptacle probe connector handle probe cable
Figure 30: Probe in thickest area of food
• For bone-in ham or lamb, insert the probe into the center of lowest large muscle or joint.
• For meat loaf or casseroles, insert the probe into center of food.
• When cooking fish, insert meat probe just above the gill.
• For whole poultry or turkey, fully insert the probe sensor into the thickest part of inner thigh, just below the leg
(See Figure 31 ).

4. Press probe key once. Enter the desired target food temperature using the numeric keys, and set temperature for food type. The minimum setting is 140ºF (60ºC); the maximum is 210ºF (99ºC). Default is 170ºF (77ºC).
5. Press start to accept the target temperature.
6. Set for quick preheat, bake, convect bake, convect
roast, or convect convert, and if necessary adjust the oven temperature accordingly.
7. The control will provide three beeps when the internal target temperature is reached. The oven will automatically change to a warm setting (HLd), and the actual probe temperature will alternate in the display. Warm will maintain the oven temperature at 170°F (77°C) for 3 hours unless otherwise cancelled.
To stop cooking at any time, press off.
To set the preferred oven operation once the probe reaches the target temperature:
The oven is preset to automatically stop cooking and start the warm feature when probe sensor reaches the target temperature. This may be set to continue cooking if desired.
Setting the options once the probe reaches the target temperature must be done when the oven is inactive. The probe is not required to be connected to the probe receptacle when setting this option.

CAUTION
Food Poisoning Hazard. Do not let food sit for more than one hour before or after cooking. Doing so can result in food poisoning or sickness. Foods that can easily spoil such as milk, eggs, fish, meat, or poultry should be chilled in the refrigerator first. Even when chilled, they should not stand in the oven for more than 1 hour before cooking begins and should be removed promptly when finished cooking.
Warmer Drawer Temperature Selection
Refer to the chart below for recommended settings. If a particular food is not listed, start with the medium setting. If more crispness is desired, remove the lid or aluminum foil.
Most foods can be kept at serving temperatures by using the medium setting. When a combination of foods are to be kept warm (for instance, a meat with 2 vegetables and rolls), use the high setting. Refrain from opening the warmer drawer while in use to eliminate loss of heat from the drawer.
To Warm Serving Bowls and Plates
Heat bowls and plates on the LO setting. Place empty dishes on the rack to raise them off drawer bottom. To further heat dishes or to heat fine china, check with the manufacturer for maximum heat tolerance.
IMPORTANT: The warmer drawer will turn off automatically when the oven is in a self cleaning mode. The warmer drawer can be used immediately after the clean cycle is ended.

OVEN CONTROLS
Steam Clean
The steam clean feature offers a chemical-free and timesaving method to assist in the routine cleaning of your oven.
Steam clean may be used before manually cleaning the oven to help loosen soils on the oven bottom.
IMPORTANT
Do not add ammonia, oven cleaners, or any other household cleaners or chemicals to the water used in the steam clean cycle.
Before manually cleaning any part of the oven, be sure all controls are turned off and the oven is cool. The oven may be hot and can cause burns.
To set a steam clean cycle:
1. Oven should be at room temperature. If the oven temperature is above the room temperature, steam clean will not start. Be sure the oven is cool. Remove all racks and oven accessories.
2. Scrape or wipe loose debris from the oven bottom.
3. Pour 8 oz (235 ml) distilled or filtered water onto the oven bottom (See Figure 38 ). Close the oven door.
6. Steam clean is a 20 minute cycle. Time remaining is shown in the display.
7. An alert will sound at the end of the cycle, and the End message will show in the display. Press off to return to the clock.
8. When the steam clean cycle is complete, stand to the side of the oven out of the way of escaping vapor when opening the oven door. The cycle includes a cool-down period, so you may immediately use a soft cloth or sponge to remove any remaining water.
9. Wipe oven cavity and bottom. Do not clean oven door gasket (See Figure 40 ).
Figure 38: Add 8 ounces of distilled water
4. Press steam clean. StCn will show in the display (See
Figure 39 ).
Figure 39: Steam clean selected
5. Press start.
Figure 40: Clean around the oven door gasket
For best results, clean oven immediately after the cycle is complete. Steam clean works best for soils on the oven bottom. Removal of especially stubborn or baked-on soils may require a manual cleaning.
Some condensation or water vapor may appear close to the oven vent. This is normal. The oven gasket may become damp; do not wipe dry. Open door to about 10° (it should stop a few inches from the door frame) and allow to air dry.
Local water sources often contain minerals (hard water) and will leave deposits on the oven cavity. If this occurs, wipe cavity with vinegar or lemon juice. Use distilled or filtered water.
If the door is opened during the steam clean cycle, a beep will sound and d-0 will show in the display. Close the oven door. Keep oven door closed during steam clean cycle.
Steam clean cannot be programmed with a delay start. If steam clean results are not satisfactory, run a self clean.
See “Self-Cleaning Operation” on page 37
.

Self-Cleaning Operation
CAUTION
• Do not line the oven walls, racks, bottom, or any other part of the oven with aluminum foil. Doing so will block heat distribution, produce poor baking results, and cause permanent damage to the oven interior
(aluminum foil will melt to the interior surface of the oven).
• The health of some birds is extremely sensitive to the fumes given off during the self-cleaning cycle of any oven. Move birds to another well-ventilated room.
• During the self-cleaning cycle, the outside of the oven can become very hot to the touch.
• Do not leave small children unattended near the appliance.
• Do not force the oven door open. This can damage the automatic door locking system.
• Use caution when opening the door after the selfcleaning cycle is completed. The oven may still be very hot.
• Stand to the side of the oven door when opening the door to allow hot air or steam to escape.
A self-cleaning oven cleans itself with high temperatures
(well above normal cooking temperatures) which eliminate soils completely or reduces them to a fine powdered ash you can wipe away with a damp cloth.
What to expect during self-cleaning
While in self-clean mode, the oven heats to temperatures much higher than those used in normal cooking. Sounds of metal expansion and contraction are normal.
Odors are normal as the food soil is being removed. Smoke may appear through the oven vent.
If heavy spills are not wiped up before cleaning, they may flame and cause more smoke and odor than usual. This is normal and safe and should not cause alarm. If available, use an exhaust fan during the self-cleaning cycle.
OVEN CONTROLS
IMPORTANT
Adhere to the following cleaning precautions:
• Do not use oven cleaners or protective coatings in or around any part of the oven interior. Do not clean the oven door gasket. Take care not to rub, damage, or remove the gasket or use any cleaning substances on the oven door gasket (See Figure 41 ). Doing so could cause damage and reduce the efficiency of the oven’s performance.
• Clean any soil from the oven frame, door liner outside the oven door gasket, and the small area at the front center of the oven bottom with soap and water (See
Figure 41 ). These areas heat sufficiently to burn soil on.
• Remove any excessive spills from the oven cavity before starting the self-cleaning cycle. To clean, use hot, soapy water and a cloth. Large spills can cause heavy smoke or fire when subjected to high temperatures. Do not allow food spills with a high sugar or acid content (such as milk, tomatoes, sauerkraut, fruit juices, or pie filling) to remain on the surface as they may leave a dull spot even after cleaning.
• Do not use aluminum foil or liners in the oven. These items are not made to withstand the very high temperatures of a self-clean cycle and will melt.
• Remove all oven racks and accessories. If oven racks are not removed before a self-clean, they will lose their special coating and will no longer slide in and out of the oven cavity effortlessly.
• Oven racks accidentally left in the oven during self clean may be wiped down after cooling with a hightemperature cooking oil to lubricate them.

OVEN CONTROLS
Setting Self Clean Cycle Duration
The self clean key controls the self-cleaning feature. If you are planning to use the oven directly after a self-clean cycle remember to allow time for the oven to cool down and the oven door to unlock. This normally takes about one hour. A
3 hour self-clean cycle will actually take about 4 hours to complete.
It is recommended to use a 2 hour self-clean cycle for light soils, a 3 hour cycle for average soils, and a 4 hour cycle for heavy soils.
To set the controls for a 3 hour self-cleaning cycle to start immediately and shut off automatically:
1. Be sure the clock is set with the correct time of day and the oven door is closed.
2. Press self clean. CLn and 3:00 HR will show in the display. The control will automatically clean for a 3 hour period (default self-cleaning cycle time). If a 2 or 4 hour clean time is desired, press self clean multiple times to toggle between 2, 3, or 4 hours.
3. Press start. door Loc will appear, a beep will sound, and the word DOOR and the icon will flash; CLn will remain on in the display.
4. As soon as the control is set, the motor driven oven door lock will begin to close automatically. Once the door is locked, the DOOR indicator light and icon will stop flashing and remain on, and the oven icon will appear in the display. Allow about 15 seconds for the oven door to lock completely.
When the self-clean cycle is completed:
1. HOT will appear in the display. The time of day, the word DOOR, and the icon will remain in the display.
2. Once the oven has cooled for approximately 1 hour,

CARE AND CLEANING
Cleaning the cooktop and surface burners
To avoid possible burns turn off all of the surface burners and allow them to cool.
Any additions, changes or conversions required in order for this appliance to satisfactorily meet the application needs must be made by an authorized qualified agency.
Routinely clean the cooktop. Wipe with a clean, damp cloth and wipe dry to avoid scratches. Keeping the surface burner head ports and slots clean will prevent improper ignition and an uneven flame.
To clean recessed and contoured areas of cooktop
If a spill occurs on or in the recessed or contoured areas, blot up spill with an absorbent cloth. Rinse with a clean, damp cloth and wipe dry.
To clean burner grates
• Clean when the grates are cool. Use nonabrasive plastic scrubbing pad and mild abrasive cleanser.
• Food soils containing acids may affect the finish. Clean immediately after the grates are cool. Thoroughly dry grates immediately following cleaning.
To clean burner caps
• Remove caps from burner heads after they have cooled. Clean heavy soils with a plastic scrubbing pad and absorbent cloth. Thoroughly dry burner caps immediately following cleaning including the bottom and inside of cap.
• Do not use abrasive cleaners. Do not clean burner caps in the dishwasher. Do not operate surface burners without burner caps properly in place.
To clean the surface burner heads
For proper gas flow it may be necessary to clean the burner head and slots. First use a clean damp cloth to soak up any spills. Remove any food from between the burner slots using a small nonabrasive brush like a toothbrush and wipe up using a damp cloth. For stubborn soils located in the slots, use a small-gauge wire or needle to clean. The electrode must be carefully cleaned. Take care not to hit the electrode with any thing hard or it could be damaged.
To clean the burner head ignition ports
Each burner head has a small ignition port ( Figure 42 ).
Should you experience ignition problems it may be that this port hole is partially blocked with soil. With the burner head in place, use a small wire gauge needle or the end of a paper clip to clear the ignition port. slots
