COOK MEAT AND POULTRY THOROUGHLY…  
Cook meat and poultry thoroughly—meat to at least an INTERNAL temperature of 160°F and poultry  
to at least an INTERNAL temperature of 180°F. Cooking to these temperatures usually protects against  
foodborne illness.  
WARNING!  
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS  
nNever wear loose-fitting or hanging garments nDo not touch the surface units, the heating  
while using the appliance. Be careful when  
reaching for items stored over the range.  
Flammable material could be ignited if brought  
in contact with hot surface units or heating  
elements and may cause severe burns.  
elements or the interior surface of the oven.  
These surfaces may be hot enough to burn  
even though they are dark in color. During and  
after use, do not touch, or let clothing or other  
flammable materials contact, the surface  
units, areas nearby the surface units or any  
interior area of the oven; allow sufficient time  
for cooling first.  
nUse only dry pot holders—moist or damp pot  
holders on hot surfaces may result in burns  
from steam. Do not let pot holders touch hot  
surface units or heating elements. Do not use  
a towel or other bulky cloth.  
nPotentially hot surfaces include the cooktop,  
areas facing the cooktop, oven vent opening,  
surfaces near the opening, crevices around the  
oven door and metal trim parts above  
the door.  
nFor your safety, never use your appliance for  
warming or heating the room.  
nDo not let cooking grease or other flammable  
materials accumulate in or near the range.  
nREMEMBER: The inside surface of the oven  
may be hot when the door is opened.  
nDo not use water on grease fires. Never pick up  
a flaming pan. Turn the controls off. Smother a  
flaming pan on a surface unit by covering the  
pan completely with a well-fitting lid, cookie  
sheet or flat tray. Use a multi-purpose dry  
chemical or foam-type fire extinguisher.  
nDo not store or use combustible materials,  
gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids  
in the vicinity of this or any other appliance.  
nKeep the hood and grease filters clean  
to maintain good venting and to avoid  
grease fires.  
nFlaming grease outside a pan can be put out  
by covering it with baking soda or, if available,  
by using a multi-purpose dry chemical or  
foam-type fire extinguisher.  
nNever block the vents (air openings) of the  
range. They provide the air inlet and outlet  
that are necessary for the range to operate  
properly. Air openings are located at the rear  
of the cooktop, at the top and bottom of the  
oven door, and at the bottom of the range  
under the lower oven drawer.  
nFlame in the upper oven or lower oven drawer  
can be smothered completely by closing the  
oven door or drawer and turning the oven off,  
or by using a multi-purpose dry chemical or  
foam-type fire extinguisher.  
nTeach children not to play with the controls  
or any other part of the range.  
nBe sure all packaging materials are  
removed from the range before operating  
it to prevent fire or smoke damage should  
the packaging material ignite.  
nAlways keep dish towels, dish cloths, pot  
holders and other linens a safe distance from  
your range.  
nAfter prolonged use of a range, high floor  
temperatures may result and many floor  
coverings will not withstand this kind of use.  
Never install the range over vinyl tile or  
linoleum that cannot withstand such type  
of use. Never install it directly over interior  
kitchen carpeting.  
nAlways keep wooden and plastic utensils and  
canned food a safe distance from your range.  
nAlways keep combustible wall coverings,  
curtains or drapes a safe distance from  
your range.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION.  
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.  
WARNING!  
RADIANT SURFACE UNITS  
Use proper pan size–select cookware having flat bottoms large enough to cover the surface unit  
heating element. The use of undersized cookware will expose a portion of the surface unit to direct  
contact and may result in ignition of clothing. Proper relationship of cookware to surface unit will also  
improve efficiency.  
nNever leave the surface units unattended at  
high heat settings. Boilovers cause smoking  
and greasy spillovers that may catch on fire.  
nUse little fat for effective shallow or deep fat  
frying. Filling the pan too full of fat can cause  
spillovers when food is added.  
nOnly certain types of glass, glass ⁄ceramic,  
earthenware or other glazed containers are  
suitable for cooktop service; others may break  
because of the sudden change in temperature.  
nIf a combination of oils or fats will be used in  
frying, stir together before heating, or as fats  
melt slowly.  
nAlways heat fat slowly, and watch as it heats.  
nTo minimize the possibility of burns, ignition of  
flammable materials and spillage, the handle  
of a container should be turned toward the  
center of the range without extending over  
nearby surface units.  
nUse a deep fat thermometer whenever  
possible to prevent overheating fat beyond  
the smoking point.  
nDo not leave plastic items on the cooktop—  
they may melt if left too close to the vent.  
nAlways turn the surface units off before  
removing cookware.  
nDo not leave any items on the cooktop.  
The hot air from the vent may ignite  
flammable items and will increase  
pressure in closed containers,  
nDo not flame foods on the cooktop. If you do  
flame foods under the hood, turn the fan on.  
nKeep an eye on foods being fried at high  
or medium high heat settings.  
which may cause them to burst.  
nFoods for frying should be as dry as possible.  
Frost on frozen foods or moisture on fresh  
foods can cause hot fat to bubble up and over  
the sides of the pan.

RADIANT SURFACE UNITS  
nUse care when touching the cooktop.  
The glass surface of the cooktop will retain  
heat after the controls have been turned off.  
nClean the cooktop with caution. If a wet  
sponge or cloth is used to wipe spills on a hot  
surface unit, be careful to avoid steam burns.  
Some cleaners can produce noxious fumes if  
applied to a hot surface.  
nAvoid scratching the glass cooktop.  
The cooktop can be scratched with items such  
as sharp instruments, rings or other jewelry  
and rivets on clothing.  
NOTE: We recommend that you avoid wiping  
any surface unit areas until they have cooled  
and the indicator light has gone off. Sugar spills  
are the exception to this. Please see Cleaning  
the glass cooktop section.  
nLarge scratches or impacts to glass  
doors or cooktops can lead to broken  
or shattered glass.  
nWhen the cooktop is cool, use only the  
recommended cleaning cream to clean  
the cooktop.  
nDo not operate the radiant surface units  
if the glass is broken. Spillovers or cleaning  
solution may penetrate a broken cooktop  
and create a risk of electrical shock. Contact  
a qualified technician immediately should  
your glass cooktop become broken.  
nTo avoid possible damage to the cooking  
surface, do not apply cleaning cream  
to the glass surface when it is hot.  
nNever use the glass cooktop surface as  
a cutting board.  
nAfter cleaning, use a dry cloth or paper towel  
to remove all cleaning cream residue.  
nDo not place or store items that can melt  
or catch fire on the glass cooktop, even when it  
is not being used.  
nRead and follow all instructions and warnings  
on the cleaning cream labels.  
nDo not lift the cooktop. Lifting the cooktop  
can lead to damage and improper operation of  
the range.  
nBe careful when placing spoons or other  
stirring utensils on the glass cooktop surface  
when it is in use. They may become hot  
and could cause burns.

Restaurant Quality Steak  
Many fine restaurants will prepare steak by first searing it using cast iron, and then continue to finish the steak  
in the oven. Using the Lodge® cast iron griddle that came with your range, you can do the very same thing  
in the comfort of your own home! The chart and instructions below will guide you through this process.

Restaurant Quality Steak, Easy as 1, 2, 3:  
1.  
Bring steak to room temperature.  
NOTE: Always use safe food practices when handling meat.  
2.  
3.  
4.  
Season both sides to taste and coat with olive oil or similar.  
Preheat the oven to BAKE at 425°, with the oven rack in center position “C”.  
Place your Lodge® cast iron griddle on the designated area of the cooktop and then preheat  
the griddle on the Hi setting for 5 minutes.  
5.  
6.  
Sear steak on each side for 3 minutes. NOTE: There will be “smoke”; ensure there  
is proper ventilation.  
Remove your Lodge® cast iron griddle from the cooktop and place directly in the oven  
with the steak still on the griddle.  
CAUTION:  
The griddle will be VERY HOT!  
7.  
8.  
9.  
Insert the meat probe that came with your range into the center of the steak, making sure  
that the tip of the probe is in the center of the steak.  
Plug the probe into the outlet (located on the upper front side of the oven), slide the rack back  
into the oven and close the door.  
Press PROBE on your control, enter the desired internal temp shown above, and press START.  
10.  
Allow steak to finish cooking in the oven. The range control will beep and turn off when  
the steak reaches the desired internal temperature.  
NOTES:  
nAfter searing, your steak could possibly already be at the desired temperature, depending  
on size, cut and desired doneness.  
nFor thinner steaks it may not be possible to achieve a Rare or Medium Rare doneness.  
11.  
Remove the steak from the oven, and let it rest on a baker’s rack (or equivalent)  
for the specified time.  
By first searing your meat with a very high heat, you are creating a browning reaction known as the Maillard  
Reaction. This Reaction unlocks the fuller, more intense flavor from the meat, which occurs when cooking meat  
at a high heat.

Home Canning Tips  
Be sure the canner is centered over  
the surface unit.  
Use recipes and procedures from  
reputable sources. These are available  
from manufacturers such as Ball® and  
Kerr® and the Department of Agriculture  
Extension Service.  
Make sure the canner is flat on the bottom.  
To prevent burns from steam or heat,  
use caution when canning.  
Flat-bottomed canners are recommended.  
Use of water bath canners with rippled  
bottoms may extend the time required  
to bring the water to a boil.  
Wok Cooking  
We recommend that you use only  
a flat-bottomed wok. They are available  
at your local retail store.  
Do not use round bottom woks. You could  
be seriously burned if the wok tipped over.  
Do not use woks that have support rings.  
Use only flat-bottomed woks.

Using the surface units.  
The following information will help you choose cookware which will give good performance on glass cooktops.  
About the radiant surface units…  
The radiant cooktop features heating units  
SURFACE  
COOKING  
beneath a smooth glass surface.  
DRAGGING  
NOTE: A slight odor is normal when  
a new cooktop is used for the first time.  
It is caused by the heating of new parts  
and insulating materials and will disappear  
in a short time.  
Never cook directly on the glass.  
Always use cookware.  
Do not slide cookware across the cooktop  
because it can scratch the glass—the glass  
is scratch resistant, not scratch proof.  
NOTE: On models with light colored glass  
cooktops, it is normal for the cooking zones  
to change color when hot or cooling down.  
This is temporary and will disappear as  
the glass cools to room temperature.  
OFF CENTER  
nWater stains (mineral deposits) are  
removable using the cleaning cream  
or full strength white vinegar.  
Always place the pan in the center  
of the surface unit you are cooking on.  
The surface unit will cycle on and off to  
maintain your selected control setting.  
nUse of window cleaner may leave  
an iridescent film on the cooktop.  
The cleaning cream will remove  
this discoloration.  
It is safe to place hot cookware on  
the glass surface even when the cooktop  
is cool.  
nDon’t store heavy items above  
the cooktop. If they drop onto the  
cooktop, they can cause damage.  
Even after the surface units are turned off,  
the glass cooktop retains enough heat to  
continue cooking. To avoid overcooking,  
remove pans from the surface units when  
the food is cooked. Avoid placing anything  
on the surface unit until it has cooled  
completely.  
nDo not use the surface as a cutting board.

To avoid possible burns, place the racks in the desired position before you turn the oven on.  
Before you begin…  
The racks have stop-locks, so that when  
placed correctly on the supports, they will  
stop before coming completely out and  
will not tilt.  
To remove a rack, pull it toward you,  
tilt the front end up and pull it out.  
To replace, place the end of the rack  
(stop-locks) on the support, tilt up the front  
and push the rack in.  
When placing and removing cookware,  
pull the rack out to the bump on the rack  
support.  
NOTE: The rack is not designed to slide out  
at the special low rack (R) position.  
The oven has 5 rack positions.  
It also has a special low rack position (R)  
for extra large items, such as a large  
turkey.  
Upper Oven Vent  
Your oven is vented through ducts at the rear  
of the range. Do not block these ducts when  
cooking in the oven—it is important that  
the flow of hot air from the oven and fresh  
air to the oven burner be uninterrupted.  
Avoid touching the vent openings or nearby  
surfaces during oven or broiler operation—  
they may become hot.  
nHandles of pots and pans on the cooktop  
may become hot if left too close to the vent.  
nDo not leave plastic items on the cooktop—  
they may melt if left too close to the vent.  
nDo not leave any items on the cooktop. The  
hot air from the vent may ignite flammable  
items and will increase pressure in closed  
containers, which may cause them to burst.  
Plastic items on the cooktop may melt  
if left too close to the vent.  
Vent appearance and location vary.  
nMetal items will become very hot if they are  
left on the cooktop, and could cause burns.

Roasting  
Check food for doneness at minimum  
time on recipe. Cook longer if necessary.  
Touch the OFF pad when cooking is  
complete.  
Preheating and Pan Placement  
Preheat the oven if the recipe calls for it.  
To preheat, set the oven at the correct  
temperature. Preheating is necessary when  
baking cakes, cookies, pastry and breads.  
Baking results will be better if baking pans  
are centered in the oven as much as possible.  
Pans should not touch each other or the walls  
of the oven. If you need to use two racks,  
stagger the pans so one is not directly above  
the other, and leave approximately 112  
between pans, from the front, back and sides  
of the wall.  
For ovens without a preheat indicator light  
or tone, preheat 10 minutes.  
Aluminum Foil  
Do not use aluminum foil on the bottom  
of the oven.  
Do not use aluminum foil to catch spillovers  
when using the CircuWave fan. The foil  
will be sucked toward the convection fan.  
Never entirely cover a rack with aluminum  
foil. This will disturb the heat circulation and  
result in poor baking.  
A smaller sheet of foil may be used to catch a  
spillover by placing it on a lower rack several  
inches below the food.  
Oven Moisture  
As your oven heats up, the temperature  
change of the air in the oven may cause  
water droplets to form on the door glass.  
These droplets are harmless and will  
evaporate as the oven continues to heat up.

Using the probe.  
For many foods, especially roasts and poultry, internal food temperature is the best test for doneness.  
The temperature probe takes the guesswork out of roasting by cooking foods to the exact doneness you want.  
Use of probes other than the one provided with  
this product may result in damage to the probe.  
Cable  
Plug  
Use the handles of the probe and plug when  
inserting and removing them from the food  
and outlet.  
Probe  
Handles  
nTo avoid damaging your probe, do not use  
tongs to pull on the cable when removing it.  
nNever leave your probe inside the oven  
during a self-cleaning cycle.  
nTo avoid breaking the probe, make sure food  
is completely defrosted before inserting.  
The temperature probe has a skewer-like  
probe at one end and a plug at the other  
end that goes into the outlet in the oven.  
nDo not store the probe in the oven.  
nTo prevent possible burns, do not unplug  
the probe from the outlet until the oven  
has cooled.  
After preparing the meat and placing  
it on a trivet or on a broiler pan grid,  
follow these directions for proper probe  
placement.  
For roasts with no bone, insert the probe into  
the meatiest part of the roast. For bone-in  
ham or lamb, insert the probe into the center  
of the lowest large muscle.  
Insert the probe completely into the meat.  
It should not touch the bone, fat or gristle.  
Insert the probe into the center of dishes  
such as meat loaf or casseroles.  
Insert the probe into the meatiest part of the  
inner thigh from below and parallel to the leg  
of a whole turkey.  
How to Set the Upper Oven For Roasting When Using the Probe  
Insert the probe into the food.  
When the internal temperature of the  
food reaches the number you have set,  
the probe and the oven turn off and the  
oven control signals. To stop the signal,  
touch the OFF pad. Use hot pads  
to remove the probe from the food.  
Do not use tongs to pull on it—they  
might damage it.

Using the convection oven.  
geappliances.ca  
The convection oven fan shuts off when the oven door is opened. DO NOT leave the door open for long periods of time  
while using convection cooking.  
To help you understand the difference  
between convection bake and roast and  
traditional bake and roast, here are some  
general guidelines.  
Roasts or poultry should be cooked on rack  
position (A).  
When you are convection roasting, it is  
important that you use a broiler pan and grid  
for best convection roasting results. The pan  
is used to catch grease spills and the grid is  
used to prevent grease spatters.  
Convection Bake  
nPreheat the oven. See the Using  
the Oven– Preheating and Pan Placement  
section.  
nPlace the rack in rack position (A).  
In a convection oven, a fan circulates  
hot air over, under and around the food.  
This circulating hot air is evenly  
distributed throughout the oven cavity.  
As a result, foods are evenly cooked  
and browned—often in less time than  
with regular heat.  
nIdeal for foods cooked on multiple racks.  
nGood for large quantities of baked foods.  
nGood results with cookies, biscuits,  
brownies, cupcakes, cream puffs,  
sweet rolls, angel food cake and bread.  
NOTE: To maximize cooking evenness,  
the fan is designed to rotate in both  
directions with a pause in between.  
This is normal.  
The convection fan circulates the heated  
air evenly over and around the food.  
Convection Roast  
nGood for large tender cuts of meat,  
uncovered.  
The convection fan circulates the heated air  
evenly over and around the food. Meat and  
poultry are browned on all sides as if they  
were cooked on a rotisserie. Heated air will  
be circulated over, under and around the  
food being roasted. The heated air seals in  
juices quickly for a moist and tender product  
while, at the same time, creating a rich  
golden brown exterior.  
Auto RecipeConversion  
You can use your favorite recipes  
in the convection oven.  
Touch the OFF pad when baking is  
finished.  
When using CONVECTION BAKE,  
nUse pan size recommended in the recipe.  
the oven will automatically convert  
the oven temperature from regular  
baking to Convection Bake temperatures.  
nSome package instructions for frozen  
casseroles, main dishes or baked goods  
have been developed using commercial  
convection ovens. For best results in  
this oven, preheat the oven and use  
the temperature, for regular baking,  
on the package.  
Using the number pads, enter  
the temperature recommended  
in the recipe.  
Touch the START pad.  
The display will show the temperature  
you entered from your recipe. The  
oven will automatically convert it to  
the convection cooking temperature.  
21  
Using the convection oven.  
Cookware for Convection Cooking  
Before using your convection oven, check  
to see if your cookware leaves room for air  
circulation in the oven. If you are baking with  
several pans, leave space between them.  
Also, be sure the pans do not touch each  
other or the walls of the oven.  
Metal and Glass  
Any type of cookware will work in your  
convection oven. However, metal pans heat  
the fastest and are recommended for  
convection baking.  
nDarkened or matte-finished pans will bake  
faster than shiny pans.  
Paper and Plastic  
Heat-resistant paper and plastic containers  
that are recommended for use in regular  
ovens can be used in convection ovens.  
Plastic cookware that is heat-resistant to  
temperatures of 400°F can also be used,  
when oven is below 400°F.  
nGlass or ceramic pans cook more slowly.  
When baking cookies, you will get the best  
results if you use a flat cookie sheet instead  
of a pan with low sides.  
For recipes like oven-baked chicken, use a  
pan with low sides. Hot air cannot circulate  
well around food in a pan with high sides.

one rack (i.e., 2, 3 or more racks) at the  
same time in convection bake. See the  
Multi-Rack Baking section for more  
information. Touch the CONVECTION  
BAKE MULTI/1 RACK pad twice for one  
rack convection baking. This mode is  
used for cooking food items on only  
one rack in convection bake.  
When the oven starts to heat the changing  
temperature, starting at 100°F, will be  
displayed. When the oven reaches the  
temperature you set, 3 beeps will sound.  
Touch the OFF pad when finished.  
NOTE: You will hear a fan while cooking with  
convection. The fan will stop when the door  
is opened but the heat will not turn off.  
Touch the CONVECTION ROAST pad  
for convection roasting.  
Touch the number pads to set  
the desired oven temperature.  
Remember to adjust baking  
temperature accordingly.  
The fan will not start until the preheat  
temperature is reached.  
In convection bake modes, for maximum  
cooking evenness, the fan is designed to rotate  
in both directions, with a pause in between.  
This is normal.  
See the Adapting Recipes section.  
Multi-Rack Baking  
Because heated air is circulated evenly  
throughout the oven, foods can be baked  
with excellent results using multiple racks.  
When baking larger foods on 3 racks,  
place one rack in the 2nd (A) position,  
one on the 4th (C) position and the third rack  
in the 6th (E) position.  
Multi-rack baking may increase cook times  
slightly for some foods but the overall result  
is time saved. Cookies, muffins, biscuits,  
and other quick breads give very good  
results with multi-rack baking.  
When baking cookies, place the racks  
in the 3rd (B), 4th (C) and 5th (D) positions.  
When convection baking with only  
1 rack, follow the rack positions  
recommended in the Using the  
Oven section.  
To cook food on more than one rack in  
convection bake, use CONVECTION BAKE  
MULTI.

Adjust the upper oven thermostat—Do it yourself!  
geappliances.ca  
You may find that your new oven cooks differently than the one it replaced. Use your new oven for a few  
weeks to become more familiar with it. If you still think your new oven is too hot or too cold, you can adjust  
the thermostat yourself.  
Do not use thermometers, such as those found in grocery stores, to check the temperature setting of your  
oven. These thermometers may vary 20–40 degrees.  
NOTE: This adjustment will not affect the broiling or the self-cleaning temperatures. The adjustment will  
be retained in memory after a power failure.  
To Adjust the Thermostat  
Touch the BAKE and BROIL HI/LO pads  
at the same time for 3 seconds until  
the display shows SF.  
When you have made the adjustment,  
touch the START pad to go back to  
the time of day display. Use your  
oven as you would normally.  
Touch the BAKE pad. A two digit number  
shows in the display.  
NOTE: The thermostat adjustment for Baking  
will also affect Convection Baking or  
Convection Roasting.  
Touch BAKE once to decrease (-)  
the oven temperature, or twice to  
increase (+).  
The oven temperature can be adjusted  
up as much as 35°F or down as much  
as 35°F. Touch the number pads the  
same way you read them. For example,  
to change the oven temperature 15°F,  
touch 1 and 5.  
The type of margarine will affect baking performance!  
Most recipes for baking have been developed using high fat products such as butter or margarine (80% fat).  
If you decrease the fat, the recipe may not give the same results as with a higher fat product.  
Recipe failure can result if cakes, pies, pastries, cookies or candies are made with low-fat spreads.  
The lower the fat content of a spread product, the more noticeable these differences become.  
Federal standards require products labeled “margarine” to contain at least 80% fat by weight. Low-fat spreads,  
on the other hand, contain less fat and more water. The high moisture content of these spreads affects the texture  
and flavor of baked goods. For best results with your old favorite recipes, use margarine, butter or stick spreads  
containing at least 70% vegetable oil.

Using the self-cleaning upper oven.  
geappliances.ca  
The oven door must be closed and all controls set correctly for the cycle to work properly.  
Before a Clean Cycle  
For the first self-clean cycle, we recommend  
venting your kitchen with an open window  
or using a ventilation fan or hood.  
Do not clean the gasket. The fiberglass  
material of the oven door gasket cannot  
withstand abrasion. It is essential for the  
gasket to remain intact. If you notice it  
becoming worn or frayed, replace it.  
Remove broiler pan, broiler grid, probe,  
all cookware and any aluminum foil  
from the oven.  
Wipe up any heavy spillovers on the oven  
bottom.  
Wipe up heavy soil on the oven bottom.  
NOTE: Your oven is equipped with grey  
porcelain-coated oven racks, they may be  
left in the oven during the self-clean cycle.  
Make sure the oven light bulb cover is  
in place and the oven light is off.  
The oven racks can be self-cleaned,  
but they will darken, lose their luster  
and become hard to slide.  
IMPORTANT: 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.  
Soil on the front frame of the range and  
outside the gasket on the door will need  
to be cleaned by hand. Clean these areas  
with hot water, soap-filled scouring pads or  
cleansers such as Soft Scrub®. Rinse well  
with clean water and dry.  
NOTE: Use caution when opening the upper  
oven after the self-clean cycle has ended.  
The oven may still be hot.  
How to Set the Upper Oven for Cleaning

detergents should never be used.  
nDo not allow grease to accumulate  
under the griddle as it can be a fire hazard.  
Clean under the griddle as soon as it is cool.  
See the Cleaning the glass cooktop section.  
Towel dry immediately and apply a light  
coat of cooking spray or vegetable oil

Stainless Steel Surfaces  
Protecting  
Cleaning Instructions:  
STAINLESS STEEL has a reputation for  
withstanding tough abuse for years. This is a  
key reason why it is so popular with the food  
service industry.  
Wash using warm, soapy water:  
Wet soft cloth or paper towel  
(avoid using excessive water).  
Wipe the surface in the direction  
of the grain (following the steel lines).  
Rinse and wring out a soft cloth or paper  
towel and dry the range.  
Apply a degreaser that does not contain  
sodium hydroxide or Stainless Steel  
Cleaner (follow instructions).  
Apply Cerama Bryte® Stainless Steel  
Brightener (follow instructions).  
However, stainless steel appliances can  
have surface imperfections, discolorations  
or blemishes that consumers with a critical  
eye notice and find unattractive in the home.  
These discolorations or blemishes can be  
caused by something as simple as leaving  
fingerprint smudges on the stainless steel  
surface overnight.  
For stainless steel appliances where  
blemishes are prone to show on the surface,  
we recommend APPLYING A COAT OF CERAMA  
BRYTE® Stainless Steel Cleaning Polish &  
Conditioner (purchased separately—follow  
instructions).  
Repeat steps 2–4 as many times as needed.  
Follow these instructions for any Stainless  
Steel surface on your range.  
DO NOT USE the following products for  
cleaning the Cooktop or Stainless Steel parts:  
• Caustic Lye (Sodium Hydroxide) or cleaners  
containing this chemical  
• Hard or Steel Wool Pads  
This will help you to maintain the brightness and  
appearance of your stainless steel appliance.  
Cleaning  
Do not use a steel wool pad; it will scratch  
the surface.  
nIn order to avoid any discolorations and/or  
grease stains, we recommend cleaning and  
removing any spills, spots and grease from  
the range after use.  
• Abrasive Materials or Chemicals  
To inquire about purchasing stainless steel  
appliance cleaner or polish, or to find the  
location of a dealer nearest you, please call  
our toll-free number:  
National Parts Center  
1.800.661.1616 (Canada)  
nIt is important to use a soft cloth or paper  
towel every time the range is cleaned to  
avoid any scratches.  
Read carefully the instructions on the back  
of the Brightener (included with your range)  
for better results.  
33  
Care and cleaning of the range.  
Lift-Off Oven Door  
The oven door is removable, but it is heavy.  
You may need help removing and replacing  
the door.  
nThe area outside the gasket can  
be cleaned with a soap-filled plastic  
scouring pad.  
Do not lift the door by the handle. Make sure  
the oven is completely cool.  
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. They may cause a dull spot  
even after cleaning.  
To remove the door, open it a few inches  
to the special stop position that will hold the  
door open. Grasp firmly on each side and lift  
the door straight up and off the hinges.  
To clean the outside of the door:  
Lift the door straight up and off  
the hinges.  
NOTE: Be careful not to place hands between  
the hinge and the oven door frame as the  
hinge could snap back and pinch fingers.  
nUse soap and water to thoroughly clean  
the top, sides and front of the oven door.  
Rinse well. You may also use a glass  
cleaner to clean the glass on the outside  
of the door.  
To replace the door, make sure the hinges  
are in the special stop position. Position the  
slots in the bottom of the door squarely over  
the hinges. Then lower the door slowly and  
evenly over both hinges at the same time.  
If the hinges snap back against the oven  
frame, pull them back out.  
nSpillage of marinades, fruit juices, tomato  
sauces and basting materials containing  
acids may cause discoloration and should  
be wiped up immediately. When the  
surface is cool, clean and rinse.  
The gasket is designed with a gap  
at the bottom to allow for proper  
air circulation.  
To clean the inside of the door:  
nDo not use oven cleaners, cleansing  
powders or harsh abrasives on the outside  
of the door.  
Do not rub or clean the door gasket—  
it has an extremely low resistance  
to abrasion.  
nDo not allow excess water to run into  
any holes or slots in the door.  
If you notice the gasket becoming worn,  
frayed or damaged in any way or if it  
has become displaced on the door,  
you should have it replaced.  
nBecause the area inside the gasket is  
cleaned during the self-clean cycle, you do  
not need to clean this by hand. Any soap  
left on the liner causes additional stains  
when the oven is heated.  
Oven Heating Elements  
Do not clean the bake element or the broil  
element. Any soil will burn off when  
the elements are heated.  
To clean the oven floor, gently lift the bake  
element. Clean with warm soapy water.

Removable Lower Oven Drawer  
To replace the drawer:  
NOTE: Before performing any adjustments,  
cleaning or service, disconnect the range  
electrical power supply at the household  
distribution panel by removing the fuse or  
switching off the circuit breaker. Make sure  
the drawer heating element is cool.  
Place the left drawer rail around  
the inner left rail guide and slide  
it in slightly to hook it.  
Place the right drawer rail around  
the inner right rail guide and slide  
it in slightly to hook it.  
Most cleaning can be done with the drawer  
in place. However, the drawer may be  
removed if further cleaning is needed. Use  
soap and warm water to thoroughly clean.  
Slide the drawer all the way in.  
To remove the drawer:  
Pull the drawer straight out until  
it stops.  
Press the tabs on both sides in, while  
pulling the drawer forward and free.  
Removable Lower Oven Drawer Pan  
nNever place, use or self-clean the lower  
oven drawer pan in the upper oven.  
NOTE: Before performing any adjustments,  
cleaning or service, disconnect the range  
electrical power supply at the household  
distribution panel by removing the fuse or  
switching off the circuit breaker. Make sure  
the drawer heating element is cool.  
nLower oven drawer has a removable pan  
for easy cleaning. Clean with hot, soapy  
water and a sponge or dish towel. Dry  
with a clean cloth. An oven cleaner, such  
as Easy-Off®, may also be used. Be sure to  
follow the directions on the oven cleaner.  
Replace the pan in the lower oven drawer.  
NOTE: Allow lower oven drawer to cool  
before removing pan.  
NOTE: Wipe spills promptly after each use.  
Glass Window  
To clean the outside glass finish, use a glass  
cleaner. Rinse and polish with a dry cloth.  
35  
Care and cleaning of the range.  
Oven Air Vents  
Never block the vents (air openings) of the  
range. They provide the air inlet and outlet  
that are necessary for the range to operate  
properly.  
Air openings are located at the rear of  
the cooktop, at the top and bottom of the  
oven door, and at the bottom of the range,  
under the lower oven drawer.  
Vent appearance and location vary.  
Oven Control Panel  
Lock out the touch pads before cleaning.  
Remove heavier soil with warm soapy water.  
Do not use abrasives of any kind.  
See the Range Lockout information  
in the Special features of your oven control  
section in this manual.  
Unlock the touch pads after cleaning.  
Clean up splatters with a damp cloth.  
You may also use a glass cleaner.  
Control Panel and Knobs  
It’s a good idea to wipe the control panel  
after each use of the oven. Clean with  
mild soap and water or vinegar and water,  
rinse with clean water and polish dry with  
a soft cloth.  
The control knobs may be removed for easier  
cleaning.  
Make sure the knobs are in the OFF positions  
and pull them straight off the stems for  
cleaning.  
Surface unit knob  
Do not use abrasive cleansers, strong liquid  
cleaners, plastic scouring pads or oven  
cleaners on the control panel—they will  
damage the finish. A 50/50 solution of  
vinegar and hot water works well.  
The knobs can be washed with soap and  
water. Make sure the insides of the knobs  
are dry before replacing.  
NOTES:  
nDo not wash the knobs in an automatic  
dishwasher.  
nDo not use any chemical or abrasive  
substances to clean the knobs—they could  
be permanently damaged.  
Replace the knobs in the OFF position  
to ensure proper placement.  
Metal parts can be cleaned with soap  
and water. Do not use steel wool, abrasives,  
ammonia, acids or commercial oven cleaners.  
Dry with a soft cloth.  
NOTE: The lower oven drawer control knob  
is not interchangeable with the surface unit  
knobs. Be sure to reinstall the lower oven  
drawer knob to the original location. The lower  
oven drawer knob may be identified by the  
increasing numbers from “WM” to “450.”

Oven Racks and Drawer Racks  
Clean the racks with an abrasive cleanser.  
To make the racks slide more easily, apply  
a small amount of vegetable oil or cooking  
oil to a paper towel and wipe the edges  
of the oven racks with the paper towel.  
The oven racks may be cleaned in the  
self-cleaning oven. However, the racks  
will darken in color, lose their luster and  
become hard to slide if cleaned during  
the self-cleaning cycle.
