RANGE SAFETY  
Your safety and the safety of others is very important.  
We have provided many important safety messages in this manual and on your appliance. Always read and  
obey all safety messages.  
This is the safety alert symbol.  
This symbol alerts you to hazards that can kill or hurt you and others.  
All safety messages will be preceded by the safety alert symbol and the word “DANGER” or  
“WARNING.” These words mean:  
You will be killed or seriously injured if you don’t  
follow instructions.  
wDANGER  
You can be killed or seriously injured if you don’t  
wWARNING  
follow instructions.  
All safety messages will identify the hazard, tell you how to reduce the chance of injury, and tell you what can  
happen if the instructions are not followed.  
wWARNING  
Tip Over Hazard  
A child or adult can tip the range and be killed.  
Connect anti-tip bracket to rear range foot.  
Reconnect the anti-tip bracket, if the range is moved.  
See the installation instructions for details.  
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death or serious burns  
to children and adults.  
Anti-Tip Bracket  
Making sure the anti-tip bracket is installed:  
Slide range forward.  
Look for the anti-tip bracket securely attached to floor.  
Slide range back so rear range foot is under anti-tip bracket.

RANGE SAFETY  
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS  
WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electrical  
DO NOT TOUCH SURFACE UNITS OR AREAS  
shock, injury to persons, or damage when using  
NEAR UNITS – Surface units may be hot even  
though they are dark in color. Areas near surface  
units may become hot enough to cause burns.  
During and after use, do not touch, or let clothing  
or other flammable materials contact surface  
units or areas near units until they have had  
sufficient time to cool. Among those areas are  
the cook-top and surfaces facing the cook-top.  
the range, follow basic precautions, including the  
following:  
WARNING – TO REDUCE THE RISK OF  
TIPPING OF THE RANGE, THE RANGE MUST  
BE SECURED BY PROPERLY INSTALLED  
ANTI-TIP DEVICES. TO CHECK IF THE DEVICES  
ARE INSTALLED PROPERLY, SLIDE RANGE  
FORWARD, LOOK FOR ANTI-TIP BRACKET  
SECURELY ATTACHED TO FLOOR, AND SLIDE  
RANGE BACK SO REAR RANGE FOOT IS  
UNDER ANTI-TIP BRACKET.  
Use Proper Pan Size – The range is equipped  
with one or more surface units of different size.  
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 burner will also improve efficiency.  
CAUTION – Do not store items of interest to  
children in cabinets above a range or on the  
backguard of a range – children climbing on the  
range to reach items could be seriously injured.  
Never Leave Surface Units Unattended at High  
Heat Settings – Boilover causes smoking and  
greasy spillovers that may ignite.  
Proper Installation – Be sure the range is properly  
installed and grounded by a qualified technician.  
Never Use the Range for Warming or Heating  
the Room.  
Make Sure Reflector Pans or Drip Bowls Are in  
Place – Absence of these pans or bowls during  
cooking may subject wiring or components  
underneath to damage.  
Do Not Leave Children Alone – Children should  
not be left 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.  
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.  
Wear Proper Apparel – Loose-fitting or hanging  
garments should never be worn while using  
the range.  
User Servicing – Do not repair or replace any part  
of the range unless specifically recommended in  
the manual. All other servicing should be referred  
to a qualified technician.  
Glazed Cooking Utensils – Only certain types of  
glass, glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or  
other glazed utensils are suitable for range-top  
service without breaking due to the sudden  
change in temperature.  
Storage in or on the Range – Flammable  
materials should not be stored in an oven or  
near surface units.  
Utensil Handles Should Be Turned Inward and  
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 a utensil  
should be positioned so that it is turned inward,  
and does not extend over adjacent surface units.  
Do Not Use Water on Grease Fires – Smother  
fire or flame or use dry chemical or foam-type  
extinguisher.  
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 other  
bulky cloth.  
Do Not Soak Removable Heating Elements –  
Heating elements should never be immersed  
in water.

RANGE SAFETY  
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS  
Do Not Cook on Broken Cook-Top – If cook-top  
For self-cleaning ranges –  
should break, cleaning solutions and spillovers  
may penetrate the broken cook-top and create a  
risk of electric shock. Contact a qualified techni-  
cian immediately.  
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.  
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.  
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 steam burn. Some  
cleaners can produce noxious fumes if applied to  
a hot surface.  
Clean Only Parts Listed in Manual.  
Before Self-Cleaning the Oven – Remove broiler  
pan and other utensils.  
Use Care When Opening Door – Let hot air or  
steam escape before removing or replacing food.  
For units with ventilating hood –  
Clean Ventilating Hoods Frequently – Grease  
should not be allowed to accumulate on hood  
or filter.  
Do Not Heat Unopened Food Containers –  
Build-up of pressure may cause container to  
burst and result in injury.  
When flaming foods under the hood, turn the fan  
off. The fan, if operating, may spread the flame.  
Keep Oven Vent Ducts Unobstructed.  
Placement of Oven Racks – Always place oven  
racks in desired location while oven is cool. If  
rack must be moved while oven is hot, do not let  
potholder contact hot heating element in oven.  
DO NOT TOUCH HEATING ELEMENTS OR  
INTERIOR SURFACES OF OVEN – Heating  
elements may be hot even though they are dark  
in color. 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 heating elements or interior  
surfaces of oven until they have had sufficient  
time to cool. Other surfaces of the appliance may  
become hot enough to cause burns – among  
these surfaces are oven vent openings and  
surfaces near these openings, oven doors, and  
windows of oven doors.

USING THE COIL ELEMENTS (CONT.)  
Home canning information  
To protect your range:  
Alternate use of the coil elements between  
batches or prepare small batches at a time.  
Use flat-bottomed canners on all types of  
cooktops. Canners  
with rippled or ridged  
bottoms do not allow  
good contact with the  
Start with hot water, cover with a lid, and bring  
to a boil; then reduce heat to maintain a boil or  
required pressure levels in a pressure canner.  
1"  
1"  
surface.  
On coil element model, keep your reflector bowls  
clean so that they will always reflect heat well.  
Center the canner over  
the largest coil element.  
For up-to-date information on canning, contact  
your local U.S. Government Agricultural  
Department Extension Office or companies  
who manufacture home canning products.  
Do not extend more than  
one inch outside the coil  
element. Large diameter  
canners/pans, if not  
Surface  
cooking area  
Pan  
centered correctly, trap heat and can cause  
damage to the cooktop.  
Optional canning kit  
Do not place your canner on two coil elements at  
the same time.  
Most water-bath or pressure canners have large  
diameters. If you do canning with them at high  
heat settings for long periods of time, you can  
shorten the life of regular coil elements. This can  
also damage the cooktop. If you plan to use the  
cooktop for canning, we recommend the  
installation of a Canning Kit. Order the kit (Part  
No. 242905) from your dealer or authorized  
service company.  
The type of material the canner is made of  
determines the length of heating time. Refer to the  
“Characteristics of cookware materials” chart later  
in this section for more information.  
When canning for long periods of time, allow  
elements and the surrounding surfaces to cool  
down.  
Cookware tips  
Cookware with a non-stick finish has heating  
characteristics of the base material.  
Select a pan that is about the same size as the  
surface cooking area. Cookware should not extend  
more than 1 inch (2.5 cm) outside the area.  
Use flat bottom cookware for best heat conduction  
from the surface cooking area to the cookware.  
Determine flatness with the ruler test. Place the edge  
of a ruler across the bottom of the cookware. Hold it  
up to the light. No light should be visible under the ruler.  
Rotate the ruler in all directions and look for any light.  
For best results and greater energy  
efficiency, use only flat-bottomed cookware that  
makes good contact with the surface cooking area.  
Cookware with rounded, warped, ribbed (such as  
some porcelain enamelware), or dented bottoms  
could cause uneven heating and poor cooking results.  
Do not leave empty cookware, or cookware which  
has boiled dry, on a hot surface cooking area. The  
cookware could overheat, causing damage to the  
cookware or the surface cooking area.  
Cookware designed with slightly indented bottoms  
or small expansion channels can be used.

Where to place pans:  
Positioning racks and pans  
Place the oven racks where you need them before  
turning on the oven.  
WHEN YOU HAVE PLACE  
1 pan  
In center of the oven rack.  
To move a rack, pull it out to the stop position, raise  
the front edge and lift it out.  
2 pans  
Side by side or slightly  
staggered.  
Be sure the rack(s) is level.  
3 or 4 pans  
In opposite corners on  
each oven rack. Stagger  
pans so no pan is directly  
over another.  
Use pot holders or oven mitts to protect your hands  
if rack(s) must be moved while the oven is hot.  
For best performance, cook on one rack. Place the  
rack so the top of the food will be centered in the oven.  
When cooking with two racks, arrange the racks

USING ALUMINUM FOIL  
Do not line the oven bottom with foil or other liners.  
It could affect the oven surface as well as the quality  
of your baking.  
Use aluminum foil to catch spillovers from pies or  
casseroles by placing  
foil on the oven rack  
below. Foil should be  
turned up at edges and  
be at least 1 inch larger  
than dish.  
Place tent-shaped foil loosely over meat or poultry  
to slow down surface browning for long term  
roasting. Remove foil for the last 30 minutes.  
Use narrow strips of foil to shield piecrust edges if  
browning too quickly.  
Do not cover the entire  
rack with aluminum foil.  
It will reduce air circula-  
tion and give you poor  
cooking results.

BROILING (CONT.)  
Broiling guidelines  
Pull out oven rack to stop position before turning  
or removing food.  
Use only the broiler pan and grid provided. They  
are designed to drain extra juices from the  
cooking surface. This drainage helps prevent  
spatter and smoke.  
After broiling, remove the pan from the oven  
when removing the food. Drippings will bake on  
the pan if left in the heated oven, making cleaning  
more difficult.  
To make sure the juices drain well, do not cover  
the grid with foil.  
For easier cleaning, line the bottom of the pan  
with aluminum foil. Clean the pan and grid as  
soon as possible after each use.  
Trim excess fat to reduce spattering. Slit the fat  
on the edges to prevent curling.  
Use tongs to turn meat to avoid losing juices.  
Recommended rack positions are numbered from  
the bottom (1) to the top (5). For best results, place  
food 3 inches or more from the broil element.

THE OVEN VENT  
Hot air and moisture escape from the oven through  
a vent under the left rear coil element. You can  
cook on this coil element or keep food warm on it  
while the oven is on. The vent is needed for air  
circulation. Do not block the vent by using extra  
large pans or covers. You will get poor baking/  
roasting results.

NOTE: Never leave plastic utensils over the vent.  
They could melt.

Keep children away from oven during Self-Cleaning cycle.  
Do not use commercial oven cleaners in your oven.  
Failure to follow these instructions can result in burns, or illness from inhaling  
dangerous fumes.

Before you start the Self-Cleaning cycle, make  
sure you:  
Hand-clean the areas shown. They do not get hot  
DO NOT

Wipe out any loose soil or grease. This will help  
reduce smoke during the Self-Cleaning cycle.  
Wipe up food spills containing sugar as soon as  
possible after the oven cools down. When sugar  
is heated to a high temperature in the Self-  
Cleaning cycle, the high temperature can cause  
the sugar to burn and react with the porcelain.  
This can cause staining and etching or pitting.  
TIPS:  
Keep the kitchen well ventilated during the Self-  
Cleaning cycle to help get rid of heat, odors, and  
smoke.  
Remove the oven racks from the oven if you want  
them to remain shiny. You can clean the oven  
racks in the Self-Cleaning cycle, but they will  
become harder to slide. (See the “Cleaning chart”  
in the “Caring for Your Range” section.) If you  
clean the racks in the Self-Cleaning cycle, place  
them on the 2nd and 4th rack guides. (The guides  
are counted from bottom to top.)  
Clean the oven before it gets heavily soiled.  
Cleaning a very soiled oven takes longer and results  
in more smoke than usual.  
Do not block the vent during the Self-Cleaning  
cycle. Air must move freely for best cleaning results.

the oven surface.  
IMPORTANT: The health of some birds is ex-

NOTE: Reflector bowls reflect heat back to the  
cookware on the coil elements. They also help  
catch spills. When they are kept clean, they  
reflect heat better and look new longer.  
If a reflector bowl changes color, some of your  
cookware may not be flat enough, or some may be  
too large for the coil element. In either case, some  
of the heat that is meant to go into or around  
cookware goes down and heats the reflector bowl.  
This extra heat can cause it to change color.
