_ mportantSafetyInstructions

General

• Read all instructions before

using the range.

• Install or locate the range

only in accordance with

the provided Installation

Instructions. The range must

be installed by a qualified

installer. The range must be

properly connected to

electrical supply and

grounded.

•WARNING: To reduce the risk

of tippin.g of the appliance,

the apphance must be

secured by anti-tip fasteners.

To check if the appliance is

installed properly, open the

oven door and verify that the

range issecured to cabinets

with four screws through the

mounting holes in the front

frame of the oven.

.CAUTION: Do not store things

children might want above

the range. Children could be

burned or injured while

climbing on it.

•Do not leave children alone or

unattended in area where the

range is in use. They should

never be allowed to sit or

stand on any part of the

range. They could be burned

or injured.

• Do not operate the range if it is

damaged or not working

properly.

• Do not use the range for

warming or heating the room.

Persons could be burned or

injured, or a fire could start.

• Use the range only for its

intended use as described in

this manual.

• DO NOT TOUCH SURFACE UNITS,

AREAS NEAR UNITS, HEATING

ELEMENTS OR INTERIOR

SURFACES OF OVEN. Surface

units and heating elements may

be hot even though they are

dark in color. Areas near

surface units and interior

surfaces of an oven become

hot enough to cause burns.

During and after use, do not

touch, or let clothing or other

flammable materials contact

surface units, areas near units,

heating elements or interior

surfaces of oven until they have

had sufficient time to cool.

Other surfaces of the range

may become hot enough to

cause burns; such as, the oven

vent opening, the surface near

the vent opening, the cooktop,

the oven door and window.

_nderstanding Range Safety

•Do not wear loose or hanging

garments when using the

range. They could ignite if they

touch a hot surface unit and

you could be burned.

• Use only dry potholders. Moist

or damp potholders on hot

surfaces may result in burns

from steam. Do not let

potholder touch hot heating

elements. Do not use a towel

or bulky cloth for a potholder.

It could catch on fire.

• Keep range vents

unobstructed.

•Do not heat unopened

containers. They could

explode. The hot contents

could cause burns and

container particles could

cause injury.

• Do not store flammable

materials on or near the range.

The fumes can create an

explosion and/or fire hazard.

• Do not repair or replace any

part of the range unless

specifically recommended in

this manual. All other servicing

should be referred to a

qualified technician.

• DisConnect the electrical

supply before servicing the

range.

When usinGlthe cooktop

• Do not cook on a broken glass

ceramic cooktop. If cooktop

should break, cleaning

solutions and spillovers may

penetrate the broken cooktop

and create a risk of electrical

shock. Contact a qualified

technician immediately.

•Select a pan with a fiat bottom

that is about the same size as

the surface unit. If pan is

smaller than the surface unit,

some of the heating element

will be exp..osed and may result

in the ignffing of clothing or

potholders. Correct pan size

also improves cooking

efficiency.

• Check to be sure glass cooking

utensils are safe for use on the

range. Only certain types of

glass, glass-ceramic, ceramic,

earthenware or other glazed

utensils are suitable for

cooktops without breaking due

to the sudden change in

temperature.

• Never leave surface units

unattended at high heat

settings. A boilover could result

and cause smoking and

greasy spillovers that may

ignite.

•Turn pan handles inward, but

not over other surface units.

Thiswill help reduce the

chance of burns, igniting of

flammable materials, and spills

due to bumping of the pan.

_nderstanding Range Safety

•Grease isflammable. Do not

allow grease to collect around

cooktop in vents. Wipe

spillovers immediately.

• Do not use water on grease

fires. Never pick up a flaming

pan. Smother flaming pan on

range by covering with a well-

fitted lid, cookie sheet or flat

tray. Flaming grease outside of

pan can be extinguished with

baking soda or, if available, a

multipurpose dry chemical or

foam-type extinguisher.

• Clean glass ceramic cooktop

with care. Some cleaners can

produce noxious fumes if

applied to a hot surface. If a

wet paper towel is used to

wipe spills on a hot cooking

area, be careful to avoid

steam burns.

When using the oven

• Always position oven rack(s) in

desired location while oven is

cool. If a rack must be

removed while oven is hot, do

not let potholder contact hot

heating element in oven.

• Use care when opening oven

door. Let hot air or steam

escape before removing or

replacing food.

•Small amounts of formal-

dehyde and carbon monoxide

are given off in the Self-

Cleaning cycle from fiberglass

insulation and food

decomposition. Significant

exposure to these substances

can cause cancer or

reproductive harm. Exposure

can be minimized by venting

with a hood or open window

and wiping out excess food

spills prior fo self-cleaning.

•Do not use oven cleaners. No

commercial oven cleaner or

oven liner protective coating

of any kind should be used in

or around any part of the oven.

• Before self-cleaning the oven,

remove broiler pan, broiler grid,

oven racks and other utens_s.

Do not use your oven to clean

miscellaneous parts unless you

are instructed to do so in this

Use and Care Guide.

• Do not clean door gasket. It is

essential for a goodseal. Care

should be taken not to rub,

damage or move the gasket.

Clean only parts recom-

mended in this Use and

Care Guide.

The Hot Surface Indicator

Lights on the cooktop surface

will glow when the surface

units get hot. The Indicator

Lights will continue to glow

touch, even after they are turned off.

Cooking on the glass ceramic cooktop is

almost the same as cooking on conventional

surface units. There are, however, a few

differences:

• The glass ceramic cooktop may take

slightly longer to heat up than a coil

surface unit. Itwill also take a littlelonger

to cool down.

•You will see the element cycling on

(glowing red) and off to maintain the

proper temperature setting you have

selected. You may even see some cycling

when the control knob is set at HI.

• The surface units on the rightside of the

cooktop feature halogen elements. These

elements light up as soon as you turn them

on, and are brighter than conventional coil

elements.

•Sliding metal pans on the glass ceramic

cooktop surface could leave marks. (See

"How to keep your cooktop looking like

new" on page 12 for cleaning information.)

Burn and Fire Hazard

Be sure all control knobs are turned to

OFF and the Power On Light(s) is OFF

when you are not cooking.

Someone could be burned or a fire could

start if a surface unit is accidentally left

ON.

Using and Caring for YourCooktop

Cookware tips

•Select a pan that isabout the same size

as the surface unit.

• NOTE: For best results and greater

energy efficiency, use only flat-bottomed

utensils that make good contact with the

surface units. Utensils with rounded,

warped, ribbed (porcelain enamel-ware) or

dented bottoms could cause severe

overheating, which damages the utensil

and/or surface unit.

Woks, canners and teakettles with flat

bottoms suitable for use on your cooktop

are now available in most stores that sell

housewares.

•The pan should have straight sides and a

tight-fitting lid.

•Choose medium to heavy gauge (thick-

ness) pans that are fairly lightweight.

•The pan material (metal or glass) affects

how fast heat transfers from the surface

unitthrough the pan material and how

evenly heat spreads over the pan bottom.

Choose pans that provide the best cooking

results.

•Handles should be made of sturdy, heat-

resistant material and be securely attached

to the pan.

•With your hand, feel the bottom of your

pans while they are cool for nicks and

scratches. Nicks and scratches on pan

bottoms will scratch the glass ceramic

cooktop.

•Make sure bottoms of pans are clean and

dry before using on cooktop.

•Avoid spillovers on cooktop. Use pans

with tall sides.

Do not cook food directly on cooktop.

Product Damage Hazard

Do not leave an empty utensil, or one

which has boiled dry, on a hot surface

unit.

The utensil can overheat and may dam-

age the utensil or surface unit.

Home canning information

•Use the largest surface unit for best

results. Also, use a canner/pan which can

be centered over the surface unit.

•Start with hot water. This reduces the time

the control is set on high. Reduce heat

setting to lowest position needed to keep

water boiling.
