IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING
hanging garments should never be worn while YOUR COOKTOP
using the appliance. Do not let clothing or
other flammable materials contact hot surfaces.
• Know which knob controls each surface
heating unit.
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.
• 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.
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.
• Glazed Cooking Utensils—Only certain types
of glass, glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware,
or other glazed utensils are suitable for
rangetop service without breaking due to the
sudden change in temperature. Check the
manufacturer’s recommendations for rangetop

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 their 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.
NOTE: Please read detailed instructions for ceramic
glass cooktop cleaning in the General Care & Cleaning
section and Before You Call checklist section of this Use
and Care Guide.
Locations of the Radiant Surface Elements and
Controls
Your range is equipped with radiant surface elements 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 smooth top.
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 (Refer to Selecting Surface
Cooking Cookware section).
The radiant surface elements are located on the cooktop as
follows:
- Two 6" radiant elements at the right and left rear positions;
- One dual 6" or 9" radiant element at the left front
positions;
NOTE: Due to the high intensity of heat generated by
the surface elements, the glass surface will turn green
when the element will be turned off. This phenomenon is
normal and the glass will come back to its original white
color after it has completely cooled down. (White glass
cooktops only).
- One dual 9” or 12” radiant element at the right front
positions;
- One warmer zone element at the center rear position.

Setting Surface Controls
To Operate the Single Surface Elements:
1. Place correctly sized cookware on the radiant surface
element.
2. Push in and turn the surface control knob in either
direction to the desired setting (Figure 2).
3. When cooking has completed, turn the surface control
knob to OFF before removing the cookware. Note:
The Hot Surface Indicator light will come on when the
control knob will be turn on and will continue to glow
until the glass cooktop has cooled down to a moderate
level. The light may remain on even though the controls
are turned OFF.
Surface Cooking Settings
Use the chart below to determine the correct setting for the
kind of food you are preparing. The Simmer settings are
used to simmer and keep larger quantities of foods warm
such as stews and soups. The lower Simmer settings are ideal
for delicate foods and melting chocolate or butter.
Note: The size and type of cookware used will influence the
setting needed for best cooking results.
Recommended Settings for Surface Elements
Setting
Type of Cooking
Note: See table, for recommended control settings.
HIGH (Hi)
Start most foods, bring water to a boil,
pan broiling.
MEDIUM HIGH Continue a rapid boil, fry, deep fat fry.
(5-8)
MEDIUM (5)
Maintain a slow boil, thicken sauces and
gravies, steam vegetables.

Operating Single Radiant Surface Elements
The cooktop has single radiant surface elements at location
as shown on figure 1.
Figure 2
Important notes:
• Start most cooking operations on a higher setting and then
turn to a lower setting to finish cooking.
• For efficient cooking, turn the surface element OFF several
minutes before cooking is complete. This will allow residual
heat to complete the cooking process.
• A glowing red surface heating area extending beyond the
bottom edge of the cookware indicates the cookware is too
small for the surface heating area.
Figure 1
Radiant surface elements may appear to
have cooled after they have been turned off. A hot surface
indicator light will come 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.
• Radiant elements have a limiter that allows the radiant
heating element to cycle ON and OFF, even at the Hi
setting. This helps prevent damage to the ceramic cooktop.
Cycling at the HI setting is normal and will occur more often
if the cookware is too small for the radiant element or if the
cookware is not flat.
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.

Cookware Material types
Selecting Surface Cooking Cookware
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 the cookware (See
Figure 1). Be sure to follow the recommendations for using
cookware as shown in Figure 2.
Thecookwarematerialdetermineshowevenlyandquicklyheat
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
glasscooktop, theymayleavemetalmarkswhichwillresemble
scratches. Remove these marks immediately.
Note: The size and type of cookware used will influence the
setting needed for best cooking results.
COPPER - Excellent heat conductor but discolours 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 Convection Bake
Convection baking uses a fan to circulate the oven’s heat
evenly and continuously within the oven. This improved heat
distribution allows for even cooking and browning results.
Multiple racks cooking may slightly increase cook times for
some foods, but the overall result is time saved.
The following temperature settings apply to the conv bake
feature:
• Auto-suggest (default setting): 350°F / 177°C.
• Min. bake setting: 170°F / 77°C.
• Max. bake setting: 550°F / 288°C.
The Conv Bake feature should ONLY be used when your
recipe instructions have been written for use with convection
baking.
To set the Convection Bake
See example below to set conv bake to start immediately at
375°.
1. Arrange interior oven racks and place food in oven.
If your recipe instructions are for normal baking and
you wish to use convection bake, follow the Convection
Convert option instructions. The convection convert option
will automatically adjust the oven temperature so that
convection baking may provide the best possible result.
2. Press Conv Bake. If default temperature (350°F) is needed,
press Start.
3. Press 3, 7, 5.
4. Press Start.
Conv Bake may be set with the following option:
• Conv Convert

Press Stop to stop Convection Bake or cancel Convection Bake
at any time.
Benefits of Convection Bake
• Multiple rack baking.
Note
• No special pans or bakeware needed.
The convection fan will start AS SOON AS the oven is set for
Convection Bake. The display will show an icon of rotating
fan within a square. This rotating fan icon indicates when the
Convection Fan is operating. The Bake, Broil and Convection
elements will cycle for a better heat distribution.
For best results
•
Cookies and biscuits 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.
•
•
Preheating is not necessary when cooking casseroles with
Convection Bake.

(example: changing from 375°F to 425°F)
1. Press Conv Roast.
2.Enter the desired roasting temperature using the number
pads 4, 2, 5.
3.Press Start.
Setting Convection Roast
This method of cooking enables you to obtain the best
results when roasting. Remember to use tested recipes
with times adjusted for convection roasting when using the
convection mode. This oven is equipped with multiple fan
speeds for even cooking when baking and better tasting
meats when roasting. It will use a faster fan speed for
roasting which will quickly strip the cold air away from the
meats replacing it with warm air (making a crisp outside -
type of searing) sealing in juices for better tasting meats.
After the oven has reached the desired temperature, the
control will beep and CONV ROAST light will stay on. Note:
The Bake, Broil and Convection elements will cycle for a
better heat distribution.
Conv Bake may be set with the following option:
• Cook Time and / or Delay Start
When convection roasting is complete press Stop.
The following temperature settings apply to the conv bake
feature:
Setting Convection Convert
• Auto-suggest (default setting): 350°F / 177°C.
• Min. bake setting: 170°F / 77°C.
The Conv Convert pad is used to automatically convert
a standard baking recipe for convection baking. When
set properly, this feature is designed to display the actual
converted (reduced) temperature in the display.
• Max. bake setting: 550°F / 288°C.
Benefits of Convection Bake
• Multiple rack baking.
Convection Convert may ONLY be used with a Conv Bake,
Timed Conv Bake or a Delay Start (Delayed Timed Conv
Bake) setting. When used with a Timed Bake or a Delay
Start (Delayed Timed Bake) setting, the Convection Convert
will display a “CF” for check food when the bake time is
75% complete. At this time the oven control will sound 3
long beeps at regular intervals until baking had finished.
When the bake time has completely finished the control will
display “End” and will sound 3 long beeps every 30 seconds
until the Stop pad is pressed.
• No special pans or bakeware needed.
For best results
•
Preheating is not necessary for most meats and poultry.
•
Be sure to carefully follow your recipe's temperature and
time recommendations.
•
•
Do not cover foods when dry roasting - this will prevent
the meat from browning properly.
Since Conv Roast cooks food faster, reduce the cook
time by 25% from the recommended cook time of
your recipe (check the food at this time). If necessary,
increase cook time until the desired doneness is
obtained.
To change from a normal bake recipe to a convection
bake recipe (example: changing a 400°F normal
bake recipe to a convection bake recipe)
When the conv bake mode is on at 400°F, press Conv
Convert. “CONV BAKE” and the oven temperature
adjustment will appear briefly in the display (for this
example it is 375°F). A beep will sound once the adjusted
oven temperature is reached. The display will show “375°”,
“CONV BAKE” and the fan icon.
To set the Convection Roast
See example below to set conv roast to start immediately at
375°.

Setting Broil
•
Use the recommended pans and oven rack positions for
the type of meat being prepared.
When broiling, heat radiates downward from the oven broiler
for even coverage.
•
For optimum browning results, allow the oven to preheat
5-6 minutes before placing the food in the oven.
The following temperature settings apply to the broil feature:
• Auto-suggest (default setting): 550°F / 288°C.
• Min. bake setting: 400°F / 204°C.
• Max. bake setting: 550°F / 288°C.
• Do not use the broiler pan without the insert.
• Do not cover the broil pan/insert with aluminum foil; the
exposed grease could ignite.
• To prevent food from contacting the broil element and to
prevent grease splattering, do not use the roasting rack
when broiling.
To set the oven to broil
See example below to set broil to start immediately at 500°.
1. Place the broiler pan insert on the broiler pan. Then
place the food on the broiler pan insert. DO NOT use
the broiler pan without the insert. DO NOT cover the

Setting Sabbath Feature
Adjusting Oven Temperature
The temperature in the oven has been pre-set at the factory.
When first using the oven, be sure to follow recipe times
and temperatures. If you think the oven is cooking too
hot or too cool for the temperature you select, you can
adjust the actual oven temperature to be more or less
than what is displayed. Before adjusting, test a recipe by
using a temperature setting that is higher or lower than the
recommended temperature. The baking results should help
you to decide how much of an adjustment is needed.
To cancel Sabbath feature
Press and hold simultaneously both the Cook Time and
Delay Start for at least 3 seconds (a beep will sound) and
release.
All cooking features previously set will automatically cancel
once Sabbath mode has ended.
Note:
You may change the oven temperature once baking has
started by pressing Bake, the numeric key pads for the
temperature you want (example for 425°C press 4, 2, 5)
and then pressing Start TWICE (for Jewish Holidays only).
Remember that the oven control will no longer beep or
display any further changes once the oven is set for the
Sabbath feature.
To adjust the oven temperature higher
See below example to increase the oven temperature by
30°F
1. Press Bake for 6 seconds.
2. Press 3 0. The temperature may be increased as much
as 35°F (19°C).
Should you experience a power failure or interruption, the
oven will shut off. When power is returned the oven will not
turn back on automatically. If your food was nearly fully
cooked, you may allow the trapped heat in the oven to
finish the cooking process. Otherwise, you should remove the
food when the power failure occurs, because you may only
start the oven once during the Sabbath/Jewish Holidays.

Self-Cleaning Cycle
Before Starting Self-Clean
A self-cleaning oven cleans itself with high temperatures
that are well above those used for normal cooking. The high
cleaning temperature eliminates soils completely or reduces
them to a fine powdered ash that you can later easily wipe
away with a damp cloth.
During the self-clean cycle, the outside of the appliance can
become very hot to the touch. DO NOT leave small children
unattended near the appliance.
Adhere to the following precautions when running the self-
clean cycle:
• Allow the oven to cool before cleaning.
• DO NOT line the oven walls, oven racks, bottom or any
other part of the appliance with aluminum foil. Doing so
will stop 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).
• Wear rubber gloves when cleaning any exterior parts of
the oven manually.
• Do not use commercial oven cleaners or oven protective
coatings in or around the oven interior.
• Do not clean the oven door gasket. The woven material
of the oven door gasket is essential for a good seal. Care
should be taken not to rub, damage or remove the gasket.
-Fig. 1-
• DO NOT force the oven door open. This can damage the
automatic door locking system. Use caution when opening
the door after the self-clean cycle is finished. The oven
may still be VERY HOT.
• Do not use any cleaning materials on the door gasket.
Leaving chemical residue can damage the door gasket.
• Before cleaning any part of the oven, be sure the
electronic oven control is turned off or else push
CANCEL pad. Wait until the oven is cool.
• Do not force the oven door open. The automatic door
locking system can be damaged.
• The health of some birds is extremely sensitive to the
fumes given off during the self-cleaning cycle of any
appliance. Move birds to another well-ventilated room.
• Remove all utensils and any aluminum foil from the
oven. These items cannot withstand high cleaning
temperatures.
• Oven racks may be left in the oven or may be removed.
If they go through the clean cycle, their color will turn
slightly dull. After the cycle is completed and the oven
has cooled, rub the sides of the racks with wax paper or
a cloth containing a small amount of baby oil or salad
oil. This will make the racks glide easier.
DO NOT

• Remove any excessive spillovers in the oven cavity
before starting a self-clean cycle. To clean, use hot, soapy
water and a cloth. Large spillovers can cause heavy
smoke or fire when subjected to high temperatures.
• Clean any soil from the oven frame, the door liner outside
the oven door gasket and the small area at the front
center of the oven bottom with soap and water. These
areas heat sufficiently to burn soil on.
DO

• 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 porcelain surface, they may leave
a dull spot even after cleaning.
Fig. 1
What to Expect during Cleaning
While the oven is in operation, the oven heats to
temperatures much higher than those used in normal
cooking. Sounds of metal expansion and contraction are
normal. Odor is also normal as the food soil is being
removed. Smoke may appear through the oven vent.
If heavy spillovers 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.

Self-Cleaning Cycle
Self-Clean Time Length
* For satisfactory results, use a 2 hour Self-Clean cycle for
light soils and a 3 hour cycle for average or a 4 hour cycle
for heavy soils.
• To avoid possible burns use care when opening the oven
door after the Self-Cleaning cycle. Stand to the side
of the oven when opening the door to allow hot air or
steam to escape.
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.
So a 3 hour self-clean cycle will actually take about 4 hours
to complete.
• DO NOT force the oven door open. This can damage
the automatic door locking system. Use caution when
opening the door after the self-clean cycle is finished.
The oven may still be VERY HOT.
NOTE: The kitchen area should be well ventilated using an
open window, ventilation fan or exhaust hood during the
Self-Clean cycle. This will help eliminate the normal odors
associated with the Self-Clean cycle.
When the Self-Clean Cycle is Completed:
1. The “DOOR LOCKED”, “CLEAN” and “HOT” icons will
remain in the display.
2. Once the oven has cooled down for about 1 HOUR and
the “DOOR LOCKED” icon is no longer displayed, the
oven door can then be opened.
To Set a Self-Clean Cycle or a Delayed Start Self-
Clean Cycle
See example below to start an immediate 4 hours Self-
Cleaning cycle or to set a Delay Start time of 9:00 o'clock
and shut-off automatically.
NOTE: When the oven is cool, wipe away any residue or
powdered ash with a damp cloth or paper towel.
1. Be sure the clock is set with the correct time of day, the
oven is EMPTY and the door is closed.
Stopping or Interrupting a Self-Cleaning Cycle
If it becomes necessary to stop or interrupt a Self-Cleaning
cycle:
2. Press Clean.
3. Press 4, 0, 0.
1. Press Stop.
Note: If a 2 or 4 hour clean time is desired, press 2, 0,
0 for a 2 hour or press 4, 0, 0 for a 4 hour clean time.
Set the cleaning time based on the amount of soil: light,
average or heavy (*see above).
2. Once the oven has cooled down for about 1 HOUR and
the “DOOR LOCKED” light has gone out, the oven door
can be opened.
3. Restart the Self-Clean cycle once all conditions have
been corrected.
4. Press Start.
As soon as the control is set, the motor driven oven door
lock will begin to close automatically. Once the door
has been locked the "Door Locked" indicator light will
stop flashing and remain on.
Important notes:
- Starting a Self-Clean cycle will turn ON the Cooktop Lockout
feature. The cooktop will remain locked until the Self-Clean
cycle has completed and the oven door has unlocked.
Note: Allow about 15 seconds for the oven door lock to
close.
-WhenaSelf-Cleancycleisturnon,theovenlightwillbedisable
and if the oven light is On, it will turn OFF automatically.
Note: If the optional delay Self-Clean feature is needed,

Before cleaning any part of the range, be sure all controls are turned OFF and the range is COOL. REMOVE SPILLOVERS
AND HEAVY SOILING AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. REGULAR CLEANING WILL REDUCE THE NUMBER OF MAJOR
CLEANING LATER.
Surfaces
How to Clean
Aluminum & Vinyl
Use hot, soapy water and a cloth. Dry with a clean cloth.
Painted and Plastic Control
Knobs, Body Parts, and
Decorative Trim
Using a soft cloth, clean with mild dish detergent and water or a 50/50 solution of vinegar
and water. Follow by rinsing the area with clean water; dry and polish with a soft cloth.
Glass cleaners may be used if sprayed on a soft cloth first. DO NOT spray liquids directly
on the control pad and display area. Do not use large amounts of water on the control
panel - excess water on the control area may cause damage to the appliance. Do not use
other liquid cleaners, abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, or some paper towels - they will
damage the finish. To remove control knobs, turn to the OFF position; grasp firmly and
pull straight off the shaft. To replace knobs after cleaning, line up the flat sides of both the
knob and the shaft; then push the knob into place.
Stainless Steel (some
models) Oven Door &
Drawer Front Panel and
Decorative Trim
Clean stainless steel with hot, soapy water and a dishcloth. Rinse with clean water and a
cloth. Do not use cleaners with high concentrations of chlorides or chlorines. Do not use
harsh scrubbing cleaners. Only use kitchen cleaners that are especially made for cleaning
stainless steel. Always be sure to rinse the cleaners from the surface as bluish stains may
occur during heating that cannot be removed.
Porcelain Enamel
Gentle scouring with a soapy scouring pad will remove most spots. Rinse with a 1:1
Broiler Pan and Insert (some solution of clear water and ammonia. If necessary, cover difficult spots with an ammonia-

soaked paper towel for 30 to 40 minutes. Rinse with clean water and a damp cloth, and
then scrub with a soap-filled scouring pad. Rinse and wipe dry with a clean cloth. Remove
all cleaners or the porcelain may become damaged during future heating. DO NOT use
spray oven cleaners on the cooktop.
Oven Racks
Oven racks should be removed, or else their finish will dull and their colors turn slightly
blue. If they do go through the self-clean cycle, wait until the oven has cooled, then remove
the oven racks and rub their sides with wax paper or a cloth containing a small amount
of baby or salad oil; this will make the oven racks glide easier back in and out of their
positions.
Oven door
To clean oven door, wash with hot, soapy water and a clean cloth. DO NOT immerse the
door in water.
DO NOT clean the oven door gasket. The oven door gasket is made of a woven material,
on self cleaning models, which is essential for a good seal. Care should be taken not to
rub, damage or remove the gasket.

Care & Cleaning
Cooktop Maintenance
Cooktop Cleaning
Consistent and proper cleaning is essential to maintaining
your ceramic glass cooktop
Before cleaning the cooktop, be sure the
controls are turned to OFF and the cooktop is COOL.
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.
Prior to using your cooktop for the first time, apply the
recommended CookTop® Cleaning Creme to the ceramic
surface. Buff with a non-abrasive cloth or no-scratch
cleaning pad. 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.
For light to moderate soil:
Apply a few drops of CookTop® Cleaning Creme directly to
the cooktop. Use a paper towel or use a non-abrasive plastic
type no-scratch cleaning pad to clean the entire cooktop
surface. Make sure the cooktop is cleaned thoroughly, leaving
no residue.
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.
For heavy, burned on soil:
Apply a few drops of CookTop® Cleaning Creme directly to
the soiled area. Rub the soiled area using a non-abrasive
plastic type no-scratch cleaning pad, applying pressure as
needed. Do not use the pad you use to clean the cooktop
for any other purpose.
• Cookware (cast iron, metal, ceramic or glass) with rough
bottoms can mark or scratch the cooktop surface.
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, then apply a few drops of
cleaning cream and buff surface clean.
Do not:
• Use cookware with dirt or dirt build up on bottom; replace
with clean cookware before using.
• Slide anything metal or glass across the cooktop.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Damage to the ceramic glass cooktop
may occur if you use an abrasive type scratch pad. Only use
cleaning products that have been specifically designed for
ceramic glass cooktop.
• Use your cooktop as a cutting board or work surface in the
kitchen.
• Cook foods directly on the cooktop surface without a pan.
• Drop heavy or hard objects on the glass cooktop, because
they may cause it to crack.
Plastic or foods with a high sugar content:
These types of soils need 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). Allow the cooktop to cool, and use the same
method for heavy or burned on soils.

Care & Cleaning
Cooktop Cleaning (cont’d)
Do not use the following on the cooktop:
Removing and Replacing the Oven Door
The oven door is heavy. Be careful when
removing and lifting the door. Do not lift the oven door by
the handle.
• 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.
Most oven doors contain glass that can
break. Read the following recommendations:
IMPORTANT
• Do not close the oven door until all the interior oven racks
are fully inserted and retracted to the back of the oven.
• Do not hit the glass with pots, pans, or any other object.
The oven door glass may break or even break at a later
time unexpectedly.
• 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.
• Scratching, hitting, jarring or stressing the oven door glass
may weaken its structure causing an increased risk of
breakage at a later time.
• You may use a glass cleaner on the outside of the oven
door glass. Do not spray or allow water or the cleaner to
enter or drip down into the oven door vents. Spray cleaner
on cloth first and then wipe the oven door clean.
• Do not use strong oven cleaners, powders or any harsh
abrasive cleaning materials on the outside of the oven
door or glass.
• Never clean the oven door gasket. The oven door gasket
should always clean during the Self-clean cycle.
To Remove Oven Door:
1. Open oven door completely (horizontal with floor - See
Figure 1).
2. Pull the door hinge locks on both left and right door
hinges down from the oven frame completely towards
the oven door (See Figure 2). A tool such as a small flat-
blade screwdriver may be required.
3. Firmly grasp both sides of oven door along the door sides
(Do not use the oven door handle - See Figure 3).
4. Close the door to the broil stop position (the oven door
will stop into this position just before fully closing).
5. With the oven door in the broil stop position, lift the
oven door hinge arms over the roller pins located on
each side of the oven frame (See Figure 4).
Special Caution for Aluminum Use on the Ceramic
Cooktop
• Aluminum foil-Use of aluminum foil on a hot cooktop
will damage the ceramic cooktop. Do not use thin
aluminum cooking utensils or allow aluminum 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 be utensil be destroyed,
but it may fuse to, break or mark the ceramic glass
surface, permanently damaging the cooktop surface.
To Replace Oven Door:
1. Firmly grasp both sides of oven door along the door sides
(Do not use the oven door handle - See Figure 3).
2. Holding the oven door at the same angle as the removal
position, seat the hook of the hinge arm onto the roller
pins located on each side of the oven door frame (See
Fig. 4). Also, seat the notch of the hinge arm onto the
bottom of the slot at the same time you seat the hook.
The hook and notch of the hinge arms must be fully
seated onto the roller pins and bottom of the slot.
3. Fully open the oven door (horizontal with floor - See
Figure 1).
4. Push the door hinge locks up towards and into the oven
frame on both left and right oven door hinges (See

Solutions to Common Problems
Before you call for service, review this list. It may save you time and expense. The list includes common occurrences that are
not the result of defective workmanship or materials in this appliance. You will be charged for a service call while the appliance
is in warranty if the problem is not caused by defective product workmanship or materials.
Your new appliance is a carefully engineered product. Many times, what appears to be a reason to call for service requires
nothing more than a simple adjustment you can easily make in your own home or is normal operating characteristic of
appliance under certain conditions.
This list is applicable to a variety of models; some of the items will not necessarily apply to your appliance.
OCCURRENCE
POSSIBLE CAUSE/SOLUTION
Range is not levelled.
Poor installation. Place oven rack in center of oven. Place a level on the oven rack. Adjust
levelling legs at base of range until the rack is level. When range is level, cooktop may
appear out of alignment if countertop is not level.
Weak, unstable floor. Be sure floor is level and can adequately support range. Contact a
carpenter to correct sagging or sloping floor.
Kitchen cabinet misalignment may make range appear to be unlevelled. Be sure cabinets
are square and have sufficient room for range clearance.
Cannot move appliance easily. Cabinets not square or are built in too tight. Contact a cabinet maker to correct the problem.
