IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION.  
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.  
WARNING!  
For your safety, the information in this manual must be followed to minimize the risk of fire or explosion,  
electric shock, or to prevent property damage, personal injury, or loss of life.  
WARNING ANTI-TIP DEVICE  
Iructions  
All ranges can tip and injury could result.  
Operating  
To prevent accidental tipping of the range, secure the attached anti-tip bracket, under the rear  
countertop.  
To check if the device is installed and engaged properly, press down on the front corners of the range.  
Make sure it fits securely under the rear countertop.  
If you pull the range out from the wall for any reason, make sure the device is properly engaged  
when you push the range back against the wall. If it is not, there is a possible risk of the range  
tipping over and causing injury if you or a child stand, sit or lean on an open door.  
rdCleaing  
Please refer to the Anti-Tip device information in this manual. Failure to take this precaution  
could result in tipping of the range and injury.  
IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE  
The California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act requires the Governor of California to  
publish a list of substances known to the state to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm,  
and requires businesses to warn customers of potential exposure to such substances.  
The fiberglass insulation in self-clean ovens gives off a very small amount of carbon monoxide during  
the cleaning cycle. Exposure can be minimized by venting with an open window or using a ventilation  
fan or hood.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS  
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should be followed, including the following:  
T
rubleshotingT  
Use this appliance only for its intended  
purpose as described in this Owner’s  
Manual.  
Be sure your appliance is properly installed  
and grounded by a qualified technician in  
accordance with the provided installation  
instructions.  
Do not attempt to repair or replace any part  
of your range unless it is specifically  
recommended in this manual. All other  
servicing should be referred to a qualified  
technician.  
Before performing any service, disconnect  
the range power supply at the household  
distribution panel by removing the fuse or  
switching off the circuit breaker.  
Do not leave children alone—children  
should not be left alone or unattended in an  
area where an appliance is in use. They  
should never be allowed to sit or stand on  
any part of the appliance.  
Do not allow anyone to climb, stand or hang  
on the door or cooktop. They could damage

SELF-CLEANING OVEN  
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.  
Before self-cleaning the oven, remove the  
broiler pan, grid and other cookware.  
Be sure to wipe up excess spillage before  
starting the self-cleaning operation.  
If the self-cleaning mode malfunctions,  
turn the oven off and disconnect the power  
supply. Have it serviced by a qualified  
technician.  
Iructions  
Clean only parts listed in this Owner’s  
Manual.  
Operating  
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. Residue from oven cleaners  
will damage the inside of the oven when the  
self-clean cycle is used.  
rdCleaing  
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.  
Never leave the surface units unattended at  
high heat settings. Boilovers cause smoking  
and greasy spillovers that may catch on fire.  
Only 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.  
To 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.  
Keep an eye on foods being fried at high or  
medium high heat settings.  
Foods 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.  
Use little fat for effective shallow or deep fat  
frying. Filling the pan too full of fat can cause  
spillovers when food is added.  
If a combination of oils or fats will be used in  
frying, stir together before heating, or as fats  
melt slowly.  
Iructions  
Islation  
T
Always heat fat slowly, and watch as it heats.  
rubleshotingT  
Always turn the surface  
units off before removing cookware.  
When preparing flaming foods under the  
hood, turn the fan on.  
Use a deep fat thermometer whenever  
possible to prevent overheating fat beyond  
the smoking point.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION.  
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.  
WARNING!  
RADIANT SURFACE UNITS  
Use care when touching the cooktop. The glass surface of the cooktop will retain heat after the controls  
have been turned off.  
SafeyIructions  
Avoid scratching the glass cooktop. The  
cooktop can be scratched with items such as  
sharp instruments, rings or other jewelry and  
rivets on clothing.  
Clean 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.  
Do 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.  
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

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.  
T
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.

Special Care  
Be sure to use a new sharp razor scraper. Do not use  
a dull or nicked blade.  
With the spill in a cool area, use a dry  
paper towel to remove any excess. Any  
spillover remaining should be left until  
the surface of the cooktop has cooled.  
Do not continue to use the soiled  
surface unit until all of the spillover has  
been removed. Follow the steps under  
Heavy Burned-On Soil to continue the  
cleaning process.  
Sugary spillovers (such as jellies, fudge,  
candy syrups) or melted plastics can cause  
pitting of the surface of your cooktop (not  
covered by the warranty) unless the spill is  
removed while still hot. Special care should  
be taken when removing hot substances.

Using a razor scraper will not  
damage the surface if the 30° angle  
is maintained.  
Turn off all surface units affected by  
the spillover. Remove hot pans.  
NOTE: If pots with a thin overlay of aluminum,  
copper or enamel are allowed to boil dry, the  
overlay may bond with the glass cooktop and  
leave a black discoloration. This should be  
removed immediately before heating again  
or the discoloration may be permanent.  
Wearing an oven mitt, hold the razor  
scraper at a 30° angle to the cooktop.  
Scrape the hot spill to a cool area  
outside the surface unit.
