Use only flat-bottomed utensils for best cooking result and to prevent damage

to the cooktop. Specialty items with rounded or ridged bottoms (woks, ridged

bottom canners or tea kettles] are not recommended.

See the “Cooking Guide” for important utensil information.

Optional accessory canning kit

(Part No. 242905)

The large diameter of most water-bath or pressure canners combined with

high heat settings for long periods of time can shorten the life of regular surface

units and cause damage to the cooktop.

If you plan to use the cooktop for canning. we recommend the installation

of a Canning Kit. Order the kit from your WhIrlpool Dealer or Tech-Care” Service

Company.

See the “Cooking Guide” for important canning information,

Using the lower oven

The lower oven is always set with two knobs:

Both must be on a setting for the oven to heat.

before turning on the oven.

To change rack position, lift

rack at front and pull out.

2. Set the Oven Selector on BAKE.

4. When the Lower Oven Indicator

Light goes off, the oven is pre-

heated. Put food in the oven.

Note: Oven racks, walls and

door will be hot.

Rack(s) should be placed so the

top of the food will be centered

in the oven. Always leave at least

1YZto 2 inches (4-5 cm] between

the sides of the pan and the oven

walls and other pans. For more

information, see the “Cooking

Guide!’

3. Set the Oven Temperature Con-

trol to the baking temperature

you want.

5. During baking, the elements will

turn on and off to keep the oven

temperature at the setting. The

Lower Oven Indicator Light will

turn on and off with the elements.

during baking, but does not

turn red.

Adjusting the Oven Temperature Control

Does your oven seem hotter or colder than your old oven? The Temperature of

your old oven may have shifted gradually without your noticing the change.

Your new oven is properly adjusted to provide accurate temperatures. But, when

compared to your old oven, the new design may give you different results.

If after using the oven for a period of time, you are not satisfied with the

temperature settings, they can be adjusted by following these steps:

Pull the Oven Temperature Control

Knob straight off 2. Loosen the locking screw inside

the control knob. Note the posi-

tion of the notches.

3. To lower the temperature, move

a notch closer to LO.Each notch

equals aboutlO”F (5°C).

4. To raise the temperature, move

a notch closerto HI. Each notch

equals aboutlO”F (5°C).

Tighten the locking screw and

replace the control knob.

Using the automatic MEALTIMER” Clock

The automatic MEALTIMER Clock will turn the lower oven on and off at times you

setteven when you are not around.

Automatic baking is ideal for foods which do not require a preheated oven such

as meats and casseroles. Do not use the automatic cycle for cakes, cookies,

efc...undercooking will result.

To start and stop baking automatically:

Position the oven rack(s) properly,

and place the food in the oven.

3. Push in and turn the Start Time

Knob clockwise to the time you

want baking to start.

5. Set the Oven Selector on TIMED

2. Make sure the Clock is set to the

right time of day.

4. Push in and turn the Stop Time

Knob clockwise to the time you

want the oven to shut off.

Set the Oven Temperature Control

on the baking temperature you

want. The oven will now start and

stop automatically.

the oven before the preset time,

turn both the Oven Selector and

the Oven Temperature Control

to OFF
