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

extinguisher.

• Placement of interior oven racks. Always place oven

racks in desired location while oven is cool. If rack must

be moved while oven is hot use extreme caution. Use

potholders and grasp the rack with both hands to

reposition. Do not let potholders contact the hot heating

elements in the oven. Remove all utensils from the rack

before moving.

When heating fat or grease, watch it

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

Air circulation in the oven

Oven vent location

For best baking results allow 2-4" (5-10 cm) around the

cookware for proper air circulation and be sure pans and

cookware do not touch each other, the oven door, sides or

back of the oven cavity. Hot air must be able to circulate

around the cookware in the oven for even heat to reach

around the food (See Fig. 3 ).

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.

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.

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.

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

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

Before Setting Surface Controls

About the ceramic glass cooktop

Types of cooktop surface elements

The ceramic cooktop has radiant surface elements located

below the surface of the glass. The design on 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 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.

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. 2).

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 spreads to areas beyond the

surface elements. These surrounding areas may become

hot enough to cause burns.

The triple radiant element allows the user to set the smaller

inner portion as a single element, both inner and middle

portions or set all three portions to heat together (See Fig. 2).

About the radiant surface elements

As the element temperature rises gradually and evenly, it

will glow red. It maintains it’s selected heat setting by

cycling ON and OFF, but 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.

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.

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 ofAgriculture) website and be

sure to read all the information they have available as well

as follow their recommendations for home canning

procedures.

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.

• 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.

Hot Surface indicator light

• 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.

The Hot Surface indicator light is located on each

Electronic Surface Element control and will glow when the

surface cooking area heats up. It will remain on until the

cooktop element has cooled to a MODERATE level.

• 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.

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 convection baking

— 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

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 oven 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. PressSTART.

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.

Baked Goods

The EasyConvect™ Feature Meats and Baked Goods

functions allow the conversion of a standard meat roasting

or baked good recipe for convection baking. These controls

use the normal recipe settings and adjust to a lower

temperature for convection baking. After the preheat

temperature is reached the oven set converted (reduced)

temperature will be displayed.

• When using either EasyConvect™ Feature Meats or

Baked Goods bake time reductions may vary depending

on the oven set temperature.

• The minimum amount of Cook Time that may be entered

using the EasyConvect™ Feature Meats and Baked

Goods function is 20 minutes.

EasyConvect™ Feature Meats and Baked Goods are

designed to give optimum cooking performance when

preparing roasts and baked goods by providing a gentle

cycling of heat giving cakes more volume and allowing roasts

to brown more evenly.

Meat Probe

When cooking meat such as roasts, hams or poultry, use

the meat probe function to check the internal temperature

without any guesswork. For some foods, especially poultry

and roasts, testing the internal temperature is the best

method to insure properly cooked meats.

If using either EasyConvect™ Feature Meats or Baked Goods

with a Cook Time or a Delay Start setting, the oven will display

CF when the bake time is 75% complete as a reminder to

check the food and then sound 1 long beep at regular intervals

until the set cook time has finished. (See Fig. 1).

Proper meat probe placement

• Always insert meat probe so that the probe tip rests in

the center of the thickest part of meat. Do not allow meat

probe to touch bone, fat, gristle or cookware.

• For bone-in ham or lamb, insert meat probe into the

center of lowest large muscle or joint. For dishes such as

meat loaf or casseroles, insert meat probe into center of

food. To find center of the food visually measure using

probe as a guide (See Fig. 2). When cooking fish, insert

meat probe just above the gill.

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.

• 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).

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.

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

• 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.

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 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.

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 oven

racks to loose their shiny finish and or turn blue. Remove

all oven racks and clean according to instructions provided

in the Care & Cleaning section of this manual.

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.

Fig. 1

To prepare for Self Clean:

• 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:

• RemoveALLitems 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.

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-

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

9:00o’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.

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:

• 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.

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

window (See Fig. 3).

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.

Important notes:

• The kitchen area should be well ventilated using an open

window, ventilation fan or exhaust hood during the first

self-clean cycle to help eliminate the normal odors

associated with the first self-clean cycle.

• When the clean time finishes the oven door will remain

locked until the range has cooled sufficiently. In addition

to the programmed clean time, you must allow

about an additional hour for the oven to cool before

you will be able to open the oven door.

• If Self Clean is 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

reached a high enough temperature when

interrupted you may need to allow up to 4 hours for

the oven to cool before Self Clean can be run again.

• 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

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.

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.

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.

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.
