IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR

USING YOUR OVEN

DO NOT TOUCH SURFACE HEATING

UNITS, OR SURFACE COOKING ELEMENTS, AREAS

NEAR THESE SURFACE HEATING UNITS, OR

INTERIOR SURFACE OF THE OVEN. Both surface

heating and oven heating elements may be hot even

though they are dark in color. Areas near surface cooking

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 cook top,

surfaces facing the cook top, the oven vent openings and

surfaces near these openings, oven door and oven door

window.

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.

• Use care when opening oven door, warmer drawer

or lower oven door — Stand to the side of the range

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. The oven vent is

located below the backguard. 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.

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.

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

Important Safety Instructions

IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR

USING YOUR COOKTOP

IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR

CLEANING YOUR RANGE

• Know which knob controls each surface heating

unit. Place a pan of food on the surface element unit

before turning it on, and turn the element off before

removing the pan.

Before manually cleaning any part of the

range, be sure all controls are turned OFF and the range

is COOL. The range may be hot and can cause burns.

• Clean the range regularly to keep all parts free of

grease that could catch fire. Pay particular attention to

the area around each surface element. Do not allow

grease to accumulate.

• 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 heating element. The use of undersized

utensils will expose a portion of the heating element to

direct contact and may result in ignition of clothing.

Proper relationship of utensil to element will also

improve efficiency.

• Kitchen cleaners and aerosols — Always follow the

manufacturer’s recommended directions for use. Be

aware that excess residue from cleaners and aerosols

may ignite causing damage and injury.

• Clean ventilating hoods frequently — Grease should

not be allowed to accumulate on the hood or filter.

Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for cleaning

hoods.

• Utensil handles should be turned inward and not

extend over adjacent surface elements — 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 units.

IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR

SELF-CLEANING OVENS

• Never leave surface elements unattended at high

heat settings — Boilovers cause smoking and greasy

spillovers that may ignite, or a pan that has boiled dry

may melt.

• Clean in the self-cleaning cycle only the parts listed in

this Use & Care Manual. Before self-cleaning the oven,

remove the oven racks, broil pan, broil pan insert and

any cookware, cooking utensils or foods from the oven.

• 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.

• 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.

• Do Not Clean Door Gasket — The door gasket is

essential for a good seal. Care should be taken not to

rub, damage or move the gasket.

• When flaming foods under a ventilating hood, turn

the fan on.

• The health of some birds is extremely sensitive to the

fumes given off during the self-cleaning cycle of any

range. Move birds to another well-ventilated room.

IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR

CERAMIC-GLASS COOK TOP

MODELS

• Do not cook on broken cook top—If cook top should

break, cleaning solutions and spillovers may penetrate

the broken cook top and create a risk of electric shock.

Contact a qualified technician immediately.

• Clean cook top 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

noxious fumes if applied to a hot surface.

Before Setting Oven Controls

Oven vent location

Types of oven racks

The oven vent is located under the left side of the

control panel (See Fig. 1). 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.

Do not block oven vent.

The flat oven rack (some models) or flat handle oven

rack (some models) may be used for most cooking needs.

The half rack (some models) design comes with a

removable section that allows for taller cooking utensils.

REMOVE ALL OVEN RACKS and parts

before starting a self-clean cycle. If the oven racks are

left in the oven during the self-clean cycle, the glide ability

of the gliding racks will be damaged and will cause all

will cause it to darken (Anodized aluminum cookware

resists staining & pitting). If aluminum pans slide across

the ceramic cooktop, they may leave metal marks which

will resemble scratches. Remove these marks

immediately.

cookware as

illustrated in both

Figs. 1 & 2.

Copper - Excellent heat conductor but discolors easily.

May leave metal marks on ceramic glass (see Aluminum).

Stainless - Slow heat conductor with uneven cooking

results. Is durable, easy to clean and resists staining.

Fig. 1

Check for flatness by rotating a ruler across the bottom of

the cookware (See Fig. 1). Cookware should have flat

bottoms that make good contact with the entire surface

heating element (See Fig. 2). For more detailed

information about the ceramic cooktop see Cooktop

maintenance and Cooktop cleaning in the Care & Cleaning

section.

Cast Iron - A slow 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.

Important note:

Do not place empty aluminum, glass or porcelain-

enamel coated cookware on the ceramic cooktop! The

melting point of cookware made with these materials may

be reached quickly especially if left empty and they may

bond to the ceramic cooktop. If the cookware melts it will

damage the cooktop! Be sure to follow all the cookware

manufacturer’s suggestions when using any type of

cookware on the ceramic cooktop.

• Flat bottom and straight

sides.

• Curved and warped pans.

• Tight fitting lids.

• Weight of handle does

not tilt pan. Pan is well

balanced.

• Cookware larger than

cooking area marked on

cooktop by more than one-

half inch or 12mm.

• Pan sizes match the

amount of food to be

prepared and the size of

the surface element.

• Made of material that

conducts heat well.

• Heavy handle tilts pan.

• Easy to clean.

• Always match pot

diameter to element

size.

• Pan is smaller than the

heating area marked on

cooktop.

About the ceramic glass cooktop

Cooktop On and Hot Surface

indicator lights

Your appliance is equipped with two different types of

surface control indicator lights that will glow on the control

panel — the Cooktop On indicator light and the Hot

Surface indicator lights (See Fig. 1).

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. Be sure to match the pan size with the

diameter of the element outline on the cooktop and only

flat-bottomed cookware should be used.

The Cooktop On indicator light is marked on the control

panel and will glow when a surface element is turned ON.

A quick glance at this indicator light after cooking is an

easy check to be sure ALL surface controls are turned

OFF.

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.

The Hot Surface indicator light is also located on the

control panel and will glow when any surface cooking area

heats up and will remain on until the cooktop has cooled to

a MODERATE level.

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.

Fig. 1

Important notes:

Radiant surface elements may appear to

have cooled after they have been turned off. The glass

surface may still be hot and burns may occur if the glass

surface is touched before it has cooled sufficiently.

• Radiant elements have a limiter that allows the radiant

heating element to cycle ON and OFF, even at the HI

setting. This helps to prevent damage to the ceramic

smoothtop. 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 bottom 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.

• Be sure to read the detailed instructions for ceramic

glass cooktop maintenance and cleaning in the Care &

Cleaning and Before You Call checklist sections of this

Use & Care Guide.

Do not allow aluminum foil, empty

glass/porcelain cookware or ANY material that can

melt to make contact with the ceramic cooktop. If

these items melt on the cooktop they may damage the

ceramic cooktop.

Types of cooktop surface elements

Home Canning

Be sure to read and observe all the following points when

home canning with your appliance. Check with the USDA

(United States Department of Agriculture) website and be

sure to read all the information they have available as well

as follow their recommendations for home canning

procedures.

The ceramic glass cooktop has radiant surface elements

located below the surface of the glass. The patterns on the

ceramic glass outline the size and type of element available.

The single radiant element or elements will have one

round outline pattern shown on the cooktop. The Warm

Zone feature located on the center rear area of the

cooktop uses one round outline and is designed to keep

food warm only.

• Use only quality flat bottom canners when home

canning. Use a straightedge to check canner bottom.

• Use only a completely flat bottom canner with no ridges

that radiate from the bottom center when home canning

using a ceramic cooktop.

The dual radiant element (some models) allows the user to

set the smaller inner portion as a single element or both inner

and outer portions may be set to heat together (See Fig. 1).

• Make sure the diameter of the canner does not exceed

1 inch beyond the surface element markings or burner.

It is recommended to use smaller diameter canners on

electric coil and ceramic glass cooktops.

• Start with hot tap water to bring water to boil more

quickly.

• Use the highest heat seating when first bringing the

water to a boil. Once boiling is achieved, reduce heat to

lowest possible setting to maintain that boil.

• NEVER place or straddle a cooking utensil over 2

different surface cooking areas at the same time. This

will cause uneven heating results and may cause the

ceramic cooktop to fracture.

Setting Surface Controls

Important notes:

Single radiant surface elements

To operate a single radiant element:

• For efficient cooking, turn OFF the element several

minutes before cooking is complete. This will allow

residual heat to complete the cooking process.

1. Place correctly sized cookware on single radiant

surface element.

• The surface control knobs do not have to be set exactly

on a particular spot. Use the graphics provided as a

guide and adjust the control knob as needed. Each

surface element provides a constant amount of heat at

each setting. Refer to the Suggested radiant surface

element settings table for suggested power level

settings.

2. Push in and turn the surface control knob in either

direction to the desired setting (See Fig. 1).

3. When cooking is complete, turn the radiant surface

element OFF before removing the cookware.

• Start most cooking operations on a higher setting and

then turn to a lower setting to finish cooking.

• 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

smoothtop. 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 bottom is not flat.

• 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.

Fig. 1

Dual radiant surface element

To operate a dual radiant element:

1. Place correctly sized cookware on single radiant

surface element.

2. Push in and turn the surface control knob clockwise to

begin heating both the inner and outer portions of the

element (marked dual - See Fig. 3). If only the inner

heating portion is needed (marked single - See Fig. 2)

for smaller cookware, push in and turn the knob

counterclockwise to start.

Please note that you may switch from the single or dual

settings at any time during cooking.

3. When cooking is complete, turn the radiant surface

element OFF before removing the cookware.

Radiant surface elements may appear to

have cooled after they have been turned off. The glass

surface may still be hot and burns may occur if the glass

surface is touched before it has cooled sufficiently.

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.

Do not allow aluminum foil, empty

Convect Broil

Use the convect broil feature to cook thicker cuts of meats

that require direct exposure to radiant heat and the

convection fan for optimum browing results.

Convection Features

Benefits of the convection features

— Foods may cook up to 25 to 30% faster, saving time

and energy.

The Convect Broil function temperature may be set at any

temperature between 400°F (205°C) and 550°F (288°C).

— Multiple rack baking.

— No special pans or bakeware needed.

Be sure to carefully follow all the recommended broil pan

and insert instructions and the directions for placing the

oven racks as provided in the “Broil” section.

Convection functions use a fan to circulate the oven's heat

uniformly and continuously around the oven (See Fig. 1).

This improved heat distribution allows for fast, even

cooking and browning results. It also gives better baking

results when using two oven racks at the same time.

Example — To set Convect Broil with the default

broil oven temperature of 550°F:

1. Press Convect Broil keypad.

Suggestions for convection features:

2. Press START.

• For optimum cooking results it is recommended to

preheat the oven when baking foods such as cookies,

biscuits and breads.

3. Close the oven door when using Convect Broil.

To cancel Convect Broil at anytime press OFF.

• Reduce oven temperature 25°F from recipe’s

recommended oven temperature. Follow the remainder

of the recipe’s instructions using the minimum

recommended cook time.

Convect Roast (some models)

Meats cooked with Convect Roast function will be juicer

and poultry will be crisp on the outside while staying tender

and moist on the inside.

• When using 2 oven racks at the same time, place in

positions 2 and 4 for best results (See Fig. 1).

Convect Roast may be set for any oven temperature

between 300°F (149°C) to 550°F (288°C).

Convect Bake

Heated air flows around the food from all sides, sealing in

juices and flavors. Breads and pastry brown more evenly.

Suggestions for Convect Roast:

• Preheating is not necessary when roasting foods using

Convect Roast.

Most foods baked in a standard will cook faster and more

evenly with the convection feature.

• Since Convect 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.

Convect Bake may be set for any oven temperature

between 300°F (149°C) to 550°F (288°C).

Example — To set Convect Bake with a default

oven set temperature of 350°F:

• Do not cover foods when dry roasting - this will prevent

the meat from browning properly.

1. Press Convect Bake keypad.

2. Press START.

Example — To set Convect Roast with a default

oven set temperature of 350°F:

To cancel Convect Bake at anytime press OFF.

1. Press Convect Roast keypad.

2. Press START.

To cancel Convect Roast at anytime press OFF.

Important notes:

• If the oven door is opened when any convection function

is active, the convection fan will stop rotating until the

oven door is closed.

• When using convection bake cook time reductions may

vary depending on the amount and type of food being

cooked.

some

• Dark or dull pans absorb more heat than shiny

bakeware resulting in dark or overbrowning of foods. It

may be necessary to reduce the oven temperature or

cook time to prevent overbrowning of some foods. Dark

Setting Warming Drawer Controls

(some models)

Storage in or on appliance—flammable

materials should not be stored in an oven, warming

drawer, near surface units. This includes paper, plastic

and cloth items, such as cookbooks, plasticware and

towels, as well as flammable liquids. Do not store

Warming Drawer

The purpose of the warming drawer is to keep hot cooked

foods at serving temperatures. Examples are vegetables,

gravies, meats, casseroles, biscuits, rolls and pastries. It is

not recommended to heat cold food in the warming

drawer; always start with hot food.

explosives, such as aerosol cans, on or near the range.

DO NOT LEAVE CHILDREN ALONE —

children should not be left alone or unattended in the

area where appliance is in use. They should never be

allowed to sit or stand on any part of the appliance,

including the warming drawer.

The warming drawer may also be used to warm dinner

plates. All food placed in the warming drawer should be

covered with a lid or aluminum foil to maintain quality.

Arranging warming drawer rack positions

Always use potholders or oven mitts when

removing food from the warming drawer as cookware and

plates will be hot and you can be burned.

The keep warming drawer rack may be used in 2 ways:

• In the upright position (See Fig. 1) to allow low profile

food items to be placed both under and on top of the

rack (for example, rolls or biscuits on top of the rack and

a casserole dish underneath).

Warming drawer recommended settings

The recommended warming drawer food settings is

provided in Fig. 3. Remember the settings provided are

meant to be used as recommendations only. If a particular

food is not listed, start with the Med (medium) setting. If

more crispness is desired, remove the lid or aluminum foil

from the food.

• In the downward position (See Fig. 2) to allow for light

weight food items and empty cookware (for example,

rolls or pastries and dinner plates) on the rack.

Most foods can be maintained at serving temperatures on

the Med setting. When a combination of foods are to be

kept warm (for example, a meat with 2 vegetables and

rolls) use the Hi (high) setting. To minimize heat loss,

avoid opening the warming drawer frequently while in use.

Important note:

Do not use plastic wrap to cover food. Plastic may melt

onto the drawer and be very difficult to clean up. Use only

utensils and cookware recommended by the manufacturer

for use in the keep warm drawer.

Self Clean

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 afterwards with a damp cloth.

• Remove any excessive spillovers. Any spills on the oven

bottom should be wiped-up and removed 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. 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.

The Self Clean function allows you to set any amount of

cleaning time from 2 hours to 4 hours. A 3-hour cleaning

time is best used for normal cleaning; 2-hour time for light

soils and a 4-hour clean time for heavier stubborn soils.

• DO NOT clean the oven door gasket (See Fig. 1). 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. DO NOT use any cleaning

materials on the oven door gasket. Doing so could

cause damage to the door gasket.

Read before starting Self Clean

Be sure to read all the following caution and important

statements BEFORE starting a self-clean cycle:

DO NOT leave small children

unattended near the appliance. During the self-cleaning

cycle, the outside of the range can become very hot to

touch and can cause burns or serious injury.

DO NOT line the oven walls, racks,

bottom or any other part of the range with aluminum

foil. Doing so will destroy heat distribution, produce poor

baking results and cause permanent damage to the oven

interior. Aluminum foil will melt to the interior of the oven.

Move birds to another well-ventilated

room.The health of some birds is extremely sensitive to the

fumes given off during the self-cleaning cycle of any range.

DO NOT force the oven door open. This

can damage the automatic door locking system.

Use caution when opening the oven door

after self-cleaning. The oven may still be VERY HOT and

can cause burns. To avoid possible burns stand to the side

of the oven when opening the oven door to allow hot air or

steam to escape.

To prepare for Self Clean:

Fig. 1

• Completely remove ALL OVEN RACKS and ANY

ACCESSORIES FROM OVEN CAVITY to avoid

damage to oven racks. If the oven racks are not

removed they may discolor.

Setting Self Clean

Example — To set Self Clean to start

immediately:

• Remove ALL items from the oven and cooktop

including cookware, utensils and ANY ALUMINUM

FOIL. Aluminum foil will not withstand high temperatures

from a self-clean cycle and will melt.

1. Be sure the oven is empty and ALL oven racks are

removed. Remove all items from the cooktop. Be sure

oven door is completely closed.

• DO NOT use oven cleaners or oven protective

coatings in or around any part of the oven interior.

2. Press Self Clean keypad once for a default 3-hour

clean time. Press it again for the option of a 4-hour

clean time or a third time to give you the option of a 2-

hour clean time. Keep pressing the keypad to toggle

back through the cleaning time options.

• 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 (See Fig. 1). These

areas heat sufficiently to burn soil on. Clean using soap

and water prior to starting Self Clean (See Fig. 1).

3. Press START to activate Self Clean.

• Oven light will not work during a Self Clean cycle.

As soon as Self Clean becomes active, a motor driven

lock mechanism will begin locking the oven door

automatically, and door Loc will appear in the display

(See Fig. 1). DO NOT open the oven door when door

Loc is displayed (allow 15 seconds for the lock

mechanism to lock the oven).

Delayed Start Self Clean

Example — To start a delay Self Clean with

default clean time of 3 hours and a start time of

9:00 o’clock:

1. Be sure the clock is set with the correct time of day, the

oven is empty and ALL oven racks are removed. Be

sure oven door is completely closed.

Once the oven door has locked, CLn will appear in the

display indicating Self Clean has started (Fig. 2).

2. Press Delay Start keypad.

3. Using numeric keypad enter 9 0 0 for time to start.

4. Press START to accept.

5. Press Self Clean keypad.

Fig. 1

Fig. 2

6. Press START.

If it is necessary to stop Self Clean when active:

1. Press OFF.

2. If Self Clean has heated the oven to a high

temperature, allow enough time for the oven to cool and

for the door OPn message to appear (Fig. 4). When

this message turns OFF the oven door may be opened.

Fig. 4

Fig. 3

When Self Clean is finished:

3. Restart Self Clean if needed.

Use caution when opening the oven

door after self-cleaning. The oven may still be VERY

HOT and can cause burns. To avoid possible burns

stand to the side of the oven when opening the oven door

to allow hot air or steam to escape.

Important notes:

• When Self Clean function is active you may check the

amount of clean time remaining by pressing the Self

Clean keypad once.

1. CLn message will turn off and Hot will appear in display

window (See Fig. 3).

• If your control is set with the default 12 hour display

mode, the Delay Self Clean can only be set to start up to

11 hours and 59 minutes in advance. To set a Delay

Start Self Clean to begin 12 or more hours (maximum is

23 hours and 59 minutes) in advance, be sure to set the

control for 24 hour display mode.

2. Once the oven has cooled down (about 1 hour) and Hot

is no longer displayed the door OPn message will

appear (Fig. 4). When this message turns off the

oven door may be opened.

3. When the oven interior has completely cooled, wipe

away any residue or powdered ash with a damp cloth or

paper towel.

• If Self Clean is active and then interrupted by power

failure or cancelled before the oven was thoroughly

cleaned, it may be necessary to run a self-clean cycle

again. If the oven temperature was high enough

when interrupted you may need to allow up to 4

hours for the oven to cool before Self Clean can be

started again.

Important notes:

• The kitchen area should be well ventilated using an

open window, ventilation fan or exhaust hood during the

1st self-clean cycle. This will help eliminate the normal

odors associated with the 1st self-clean cycle.

• When the clean time finishes the oven door will remain

locked until the range has cooled sufficiently. In

addition to the clean time that was programmed,

you must allow about 1 additional hour for the oven

to cool before you will be able to open the oven

door.

• The Self Clean function will not operate whenever a

radiant surface element is ON or the Control Lock is

active.

Care & Cleaning

Cooktop maintenance

Cooktop cleaning

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.

Consistent and proper cleaning is essential to

maintaining your ceramic glass cooktop.

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

recommended Cooktop Cleaning Creme to the ceramic

surface (on the web visit www.KitchenAid.com for

replacement cooktop cleaner, item number 31464). Buff

with a nonabrasive 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.

Before cleaning the cooktop, be sure

the controls are turned to OFF and the cooktop is

COOL. The glass surface could be hot and burns may

occur if the glass surface is touched before it has cooled

sufficiently.

For light to moderate soil:

Apply a few drops of Cooktop Cleaning Creme directly to

the cooktop. Use a paper towel or use a nonabrasive

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 nonabrasive

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.

Do not:

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.

• Slide anything metal or glass across the cooktop.

• Use cookware with dirt or dirt build up on bottom;

replace with clean cookware before using.

• 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 ceramic glass

cooktop, they may cause it to crack.

30°

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

Do not use the following on the cooktop:

Aluminum foil and utensils

NEVER cover any slots, holes or

passages in the oven bottom or cover an entire oven

rack with materials such as aluminum foil. Aluminum

foil linings may trap heat, causing a fire hazard.

• 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.

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.

• 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.

• Aluminum foil - Use of aluminum foil on a hot cooktop

can damage the cooktop. Do not use thin aluminum

cooking utensils or allow aluminum foil to touch the

surface elements under ANY circumstances.

Important note:

Damage to the ceramic glass cooktop may occur if you

use an abrasive type cleaning pad. Only use cleaning

products that have been specifically designed for ceramic

glass cooktops.

• 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 aluminum pans are allowed to boil dry when

using the cooktop, not only will the utensil be damaged

or destroyed, but it may fuse to, break or mark the

ceramic glass surface, permanently damaging the

cooktop surface.
