Use care when touching the cooktop. The glass surface of the
cooktop will retain heat after the controls have been turned off.
Be 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.
Use proper pan sizes. This appliance is equipped with surface units of
different size. Select pots and pans that have flat bottoms large enough
to cover the surface area of the heating element. Using undersized
cookware will expose a portion of the heating element to direct contact
and may result in the ignition of clothing. Matching the size of the pot or
pan to the burner will also improve efficiency.
Glazed cooking utensils. Only certain types of glass, glass/ceramic,
ceramic,earthenware, or other glazed cookware are suitable for range-top
service without breaking due to the sudden change in temperature.
Cookware handles should be turned outward and not extend
over adjacent surface units. To reduce the risk of burns, ignition
of flammable materials, and spillage due to unintentional contact with
cookware, cookware handles should be positioned so that they are
turned outward, and do not extend over adjacent surface units.
Read and follow all instructions and warnings on the cleaning cream
labels.
Be sure you know which control knob operates each surface unit. Make
sure you turned on the correct surface unit.
Always turn the surface units off before removing cookware.
When preparing flaming foods under the hood, turn the fan on.
Keep an eye on foods being fried at high or medium high heat settings.

OVEN
DO NOT TOUCH THE HEATING ELEMENTS OR INTERIOR
SURFACES OF THE 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 the heating elements or interior surfaces
of the 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.
Do not heat unopened food containers. Build-up of pressure may
cause the container to burst and result in injury.
Do not use the oven to dry newspapers. If overheated, they can
catch on fire.
Do not use the oven for a storage area. Items stored in an oven can
ignite.
Use care when opening door. Let hot air or steam escape before you
remove or replace food in the oven.
Protective liners. Do not use aluminum foil to line the oven bottoms,
except as suggested in the manual. Improper installation of these liners
may result in a risk of electric shock or fire.
Keep oven vent ducts unobstructed. The oven vent is located above
the right rear surface unit. This area could become hot during oven use.
Never block this vent or place plastic or heat-sensitive items on it.
Placement of oven racks. Always place oven racks in the desired
location while the oven is cool. If the rack must be moved while the oven
is hot, use potholders. Do not let the potholders come in contact with the
hot heating element in the oven.
Do not allow aluminum foil or a meat probe to contact the heating
elements.

WARMING DRAWER
DO NOT TOUCH THE HEATING ELEMENT OR THE INTERIOR
SURFACE OF THE DRAWER. These surfaces may be hot enough to
burn.
REMEMBER: The inside surface of the drawer may be hot when the
drawer is opened.
The purpose of the warming drawer is to hold hot cooked foods
at serving temperature. Always start with hot food. You cannot heat or
cook cold food in the warming drawer.
Use care when opening the drawer. Open the drawer a crack and
let hot air or steam escape before removing or replacing food. Hot air or
steam which escapes can cause burns to hands, face and/or eyes.
Do not use the drawer to dry newspapers. If overheated, they can
catch on fire.
Do not use aluminum foil to line the drawer. Foil is an excellent heat
insulator and will trap heat beneath it. This will upset the performance of
the drawer and it could damage the interior finish.
Do not leave paper products, plastics, canned food or combustible
materials in the drawer.
Never leave jars or cans of fat drippings in or near the drawer.
Do not warm food in the drawer for more than three hours.
SELF-CLEANING OVENS
Do not clean the door gasket. The door gasket is essential for a good
seal. Care should be taken not to rub, damage, or move the gasket.
Never keep pet birds in the kitchen. Birds are extremely sensitive
to the fumes released during an oven self-clean cycle. Fumes may be
harmful or fatal to birds. Move birds to a well-ventilated room.
Clean only the parts listed in this manual in the self-clean cycle.
Before self-cleaning the oven, remove the partition, rack, utensils, and
food.
Do not use any commercial oven cleaner or oven liner protective coating
of any kind in or on the outside of the oven. Use only a ceramic cooktop
cleaner or the cleaner supplied with this appliance to clean the glass
cooktop.

Remove the nickel oven shelves from the oven before you begin the self-
cleaning cycle, or they may discolor.
If the self-clean mode malfunctions, turn the oven off and disconnect the
power supply. Have it serviced by a qualified technician.
VENTILATING HOOD
Clean ventilating hoods frequently. Do not let grease accumulate on
the hood or filter.
When flaming foods under the hood, turn the fan on.
GLASS/CERAMIC COOKING SURFACES
DO NOT TOUCH SURFACE UNITS OR AREAS 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 the
surface units or areas near the units until they have had sufficient time to
cool. Among these areas are the cook-top and the facing of the cook-
top.
Do not cook on a broken cooktop. If the cooktop 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 the cooktop 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.
BEFORE YOU BEGIN
Clean the oven thoroughly before using for the first time. Remove
the accessories and operate the oven at the bake setting of 400 °F for 1
hour before using. There will be a distinctive odor. This is normal. Ensure
your kitchen is well ventilated during this conditioning period.

ABOUT SURFACE COOKING
BEFORE COOKING
CAUTION
• Do not use the glass cooktop surface as a cutting board.
• Do not place or store items that can melt or catch fire on the glass cooktop, even
when it is not being used.
• Turn the surface units on only after placing the cookware on them.
• Do not store heavy items above the cooktop surface. They could fall and damage it.
DURING COOKING
CAUTION
• Do not place aluminum foil or plastic items such as salt and pepper shakers, spoon
holders, or plastic wrappings on the range when it is in use. The hot air from the vent
could melt plastics or ignite flammable items.
• Make sure the correct surface unit is turned on.
• Never cook food directly on the glass. Always use cookware.
• Always place the pan in the center of the surface unit you are cooking on.
• Never leave surface units unattended while using a high heat setting. Boilovers cause
smoking and greasy spillovers that may catch on fire.
• Turn the surface units off before removing cookware.
• Do not use plastic wrap to cover food. Plastic may melt onto the surface and be very
difficult to remove.
AFTER COOKING
CAUTION
• Do not touch the surface units until they have cooled down.
• The surface may be still be hot and burns may occur if the glass surface is touched
before it has cooled down sufficiently.
• Immediately clean spills on the cooking area to prevent a tough cleaning chore later.
• If you have a cabinet directly above the cooking surface, make sure that the items
in it are infrequently used and can be safely stored in an area subjected to heat.
Temperatures in the cabinet may be unsafe for items such as volatile liquids, cleaners.
and aerosol sprays.
About the radiant surface elements
The temperature of radiant surface elements rises gradually and evenly. As the temperature rises,
the radiant 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.
Radiant elements have a limiter that allows the element to cycle ON and OFF, even at the HI
setting. This helps to prevent damage to the ceramic cooktop. Cycling at the HI setting is
normal and can occur if the cookware is too small for the radiant element or if the cookware
bottom is not flat.

• Stays on even after the unit is turned off.
• Glows until the unit is cooled to approximately 150 °F.
Cooking areas
• The cooking areas on your range are identified by permanent circles on the glass cooking
surface. For the most efficient cooking, fit the pan size to the element size.
• Pans should not extend more than ½˝ to 1˝ beyond the cooking area.

Using the warming center
The warming center, located in the back center of the glass surface, will keep hot, cooked food
at serving temperature.
• The surface warmer will not glow red like the cooking elements.
• Do not warm food on the warming center for more than two hours.
CAUTION
• Use only cookware and dishes recommended as safe for oven and cooktop use.
• Always use potholders or oven mitts when removing food from the warming center as
cookware and plates will be hot.
• When warming pastries and breads, use covers that have an opening to allow
moisture to escape.
• Do not use plastic wrap to cover foods. Plastic may melt onto the surface and be very
difficult to clean off.
• Food should be kept in its container and covered with a lid or aluminum foil to
maintain food quality.
• Always start with hot food. Eating uncooked or cold food placed on the warming
center could result in illness.
1. Turn the warming center on.
Press the WARMING CENTER ON/OFF pad.
2. Select the power setting you want.
Pressing the WARMING CENTER LEVEL pad once will set it to
the level 1 setting. Press the pad twice for the level 2 setting, 3
times for level 3.
3. Turn the warming center off.
Press the WARMING CENTER ON/OFF pad.
• Pressing the CLEAR/OFF pad does not turn the warming center off.
• For best results, all foods on the warming center should be covered with a lid or
aluminum foil. When warming pastries or breads, the lid or foil should be vented to allow
moisture to escape.

USING THE PROPER COOKWARE
Using the right cookware can prevent many problems, such as uneven cooking or extended
cooking times. Using the proper pans will reduce cooking times and cook food more evenly.
CORRECT
INCORRECT
Flat bottom and straight sides.
• Tight fitting lids.
Curved and warped pan
bottoms.
• Weight of handle does not tilt
pan.
Check for flatness by
rotating a ruler across the
bottom of the cookware.
• Pan is well balanced.
Pan overhangs element by more
than one-half inch.
• Pan size matches the amount
of food to be prepared
and the size of the surface
element.
• Made of a material that
conducts heat well.
Pan is smaller than element.
Heavy handle tilts pan.
• Always match pot diameter to
element surface diameter.
CHOOSING THE PROPER COOKWARE
What your cookware is made of determines how evenly and quickly heat is transferred from the
surface element to the pan bottom.
• ALUMINUM - Excellent heat conductor. Some types of food will cause the aluminum to
darken. (Anodized aluminum cookware resists staining and pitting.). If aluminum pans are slid
across the ceramic cooktop, they may leave metal marks that resemble scratches. Remove
these marks as soon as the cooktop cools down.
• COPPER - Excellent heat conductor but discolors easily. May leave metal marks on ceramic
glass (see above).
• STAINLESS STEEL - Slow heat conductor with uneven cooking results. Is durable, easy to
clean and resists staining.
• CAST IRON - A poor conductor, but retains heat very well. Cooks evenly once cooking
temperature is reached. Not recommended for use on ceramic cooktops.
• ENAMELWARE - 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.

31/10/2012 17:31:10
PROTECTING THE COOKTOP SURFACE
Cleaning
• Clean the cooktop before using it for the first time.
• Clean your cooktop daily or after each use. This will keep your cooktop looking good and can
prevent damage.
• If a spillover occurs while you are cooking, immediately clean the spill from the cooking area
while it is hot to prevent a tough cleaning chore later. Using extreme care, wipe the spill with a
clean dry towel.
• Do not allow spills to remain on the cooking area or the cooktop trim for a long period of time.
• Do not use abrasive cleansing powders or scouring pads, which will scratch the cooktop.
• Do not use chlorine bleach, ammonia, or other cleansers not specifically recommended for use
on a glass-ceramic surface.
Preventing marks and scratches
• Do not use glass cookware. It may scratch the cooktop.
• Do not place a trivet or wok ring between the cooktop and the pan. These items can mark or
scratch the cooktop.
• Make sure the cooktop and the pan bottom are clean.
• Do not slide metal pans across the cooktop.
Preventing stains
• Do not use a soiled dish cloth or sponge to clean the cooktop surface. A film will remain, which
may cause stains on the cooking surface after the area is heated.
• Continuously cooking on a soiled surface may/will result in a permanent stain.
Preventing other damage
• Do not allow plastic, sugar, or foods with high sugar content to melt onto the hot cooktop.
Should this happen, clean immediately.
• Do not let a pan boil dry. This will damage the cooktop and the pan.
• Do not use the cooktop as a work surface or cutting board.
• Do not cook food directly on the cooktop. Use the proper cookware.

using the warming drawer
ABOUT THE WARMING DRAWER
The warming drawer will keep hot,
cooked foods warm. Always start with hot
food. Do not use to warm cold food other
than bread, crisping crackers, chips or dry
cereal.
Allow approximately 25 minutes for the
warming drawer to preheat.
• Do not line the warming drawer or pan with aluminum foil. Foil is an excellent heat
insulator and will trap heat beneath it. This will impede the performance of the drawer
and could damage the interior finish.
• Do not put liquid or water in the warming drawer.
• All foods placed in the warming drawer should be covered with a lid or aluminum foil. When
warming pastries or breads, use a vented lid or vented aluminum foil to allow moisture to
escape.
• Remove serving spoons, etc., before placing containers in the warming drawer.
• Food should be kept hot in its cooking container or transferred to a heat-safe serving dish.
Plastic containers or plastic wrap will melt if in direct contact with the drawer, pan or a
hot utensil. Melted plastic may not be removable and is not covered under your warranty.

By using the convection bake feature, you will be able to cook faster. You can program the oven
for convection baking at any temperature between 175 °F and 550 °F.
When operating in twin mode, you can program the oven for convection baking at any
temperature between 175 °F and 480 °F. This improved heat distribution allows for even cooking
and excellent results using multiple racks at the same time. Foods cooked on a single oven rack
will generally cook faster and more evenly with convection baking. Multiple oven rack cooking
may slightly increase cook times for some foods, but the overall result is time saved. Breads and
pastries brown more evenly.
Tip for convection baking (single mode)
The amount of time you save will vary depending on the amount and type of food you are
cooking. When baking cookies or biscuits, you should use pans with no sides or very low sides
to allow the heated air to circulate around the food. Using a pan with a dark finish will allow faster
cooking times.
When using convection baking with a single rack, place the oven rack in position 4. If cooking on
multiple racks, place the oven racks in positions 2 and 5 or positions 2, 4 and 6.
When baking a cake, using the bake mode will produce better results.
How to set the oven for convection baking (single mode)
1. Start the convection baking mode.
Press the CONV. BAKE pad. The default temperature is 350 °F.
2. Enter the temperature you want, eg. 400 °F, by using the number
pads. Set the temperature that is called for in the recipe.
Important: In convection baking, the oven automatically sets the
temperature 25 °F lower than your setting because convection
baking cooks food more effectively.
3. Press the START/SET pad to begin convection baking.
Conv. Bake and the adjusted oven temperature, eg. 375 °F, will
appear in the display for 2 seconds.
The temperature display will start to change once the oven
temperature reaches 150 °F.
A beep will sound 6 times when the adjusted oven temperature,
eg. 375 °F, is reached and the display will show the auto-
converted oven temperature.
4. Turn off or cancel convection baking by pressing the CLEAR/OFF
pad.

CONVECTION ROASTING
Convection roasting is good for cooking large tender cuts of meat, uncovered.
Heat comes from the top heating element. 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. The heated air seals in juices quickly for a moist and tender product while, at the same
time, creating a rich golden brown exterior.
How to set the oven for convection roasting (single mode)
1. Start the convection roasting mode.
Press the CONV. ROAST pad. The default temperature is 350 °F.
2. Enter the temperature you want, eg. 400 °F, by using the number
pads.
3. Press the START/SET pad to begin convection roasting.
Conv. Roast and the adjusted oven temperature, eg. 375 °F, will
appear in the display for 2 seconds.

SELF-CLEANING
This self-cleaning oven uses high temperatures (well above cooking temperatures) to burn off
leftover grease and residue completely or reduce them to a finely powdered ash that you can wipe
away with a damp cloth.
• During the self-cleaning cycle, the outside of the range will become very hot to the
touch. Do not leave small children unattended near the appliance.
CAUTION
• 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.
• Do not line the oven walls, racks, bottom or any other part of the range with
aluminum foil. Doing so will result in poor heat distribution, produce poor baking
results and cause permanent damage to the oven interior (aluminum foil will melt and
stick to the interior surface of the oven).
• Do not force the oven door open while self-cleaning is in progress. This can damage
the automatic door locking system. Use care when opening the oven door after the
self-cleaning cycle is complete. Stand to the side of the oven when opening the door
to allow hot air or steam to escape. The oven may still be VERY HOT.
Before a self-cleaning cycle
• We recommend venting your kitchen with an open window
or using a ventilation fan or hood during the self-cleaning

• Take care when opening the door before a steam-cleaning procedure has ended. The water on
the bottom is hot.
• Open the oven door and remove the remaining water with a sponge. Do not leave the residual
water in the oven for any length of time. Wipe the oven clean and dry with a soft cloth. Do not
forget to wipe under the oven door seal.
• Use a detergent-soaked sponge, a soft brush, or a nylon scrubber to wipe the oven interior.
Remove stubborn residue with a nylon scourer. You can remove lime deposits with a cloth
soaked in vinegar.
• If the oven remains dirty, you can repeat the procedure once the oven has cooled.
• For heavy residue, such as grease left over from roasting, we recommend that you rub
detergent into the residue before activating the steam-cleaning function.
• After cleaning, leave the oven door ajar at a 15 ° angle to allow the interior enamel surface to
dry thoroughly.
