Using the Warming Zone
WARNING
FOOD POISON HAZARD: Bacteria may grow in food at temperatures below 140°F.
Always start with hot food. Do not use warm setting to heat cold food.
Do not use warm setting for more than 2 hours.
The WARMING ZONE , located in the back center of the glass surface, will keep hot, cooked food at serving temperature. Always start with hot food. Do not use to heat cold food. Placing uncooked or cold food on the WARMING ZONE could result in foodborne illness.
To use the WARMING ZONE:
Press the WARMING ZONE pad, select the desired level (Low, Medium or High).
To turn off the WARMING ZONE:
Press the WARMING ZONE pad.
NOTE:
For best results, all foods on the WARMING ZONE should be covered with a lid or aluminum foil. When warming pastries or breads, the cover should be vented to allow moisture to escape.
The initial temperature, type and amount of food, type of pan, and the time held will affect the quality of the food. Always use pot holders or oven mitts when removing food from the WARMING ZONE, since cookware and plates will be hot. NOTE: The surface warmer will not glow red.
How To Synchronize Left Elements
The left elements of the cooktop can be controlled together via the Sync Burners feature. Sync Burners feature is useful for cooking activities such as griddle cooking.
The Sync Burners feature is only intended for cookware that completely spans both burners.CAFE CHS90XM2NS5 30 Inch Slide In Induction Range - fig

  1. Touch the On/Off pad on either element to turn off the Sync Burners. or
  2. Touch the Sync Burners to turn both elements off.

Cookware for Induction Cooktop

Using the Correct Size Cookware
The induction coils require a minimum pan size to function properly. Pans that are not ferrous or are too small will not allow the induction elements to turn on, and the ON indicator for that element location will flash for 25 seconds and then turn off. If a pan is removed from or not centered on the induction coil for more than 30 seconds, the power for that element will be shut off.
Cookware larger than the element ring may be used; however, heat will only occur above the element.
For best results, the cookware must make FULL contact with the glass surface. Cookware that is small may be too light to compress the Precision Cooktop Sensor on models with sensor on left front burner and should not be used on that burner. Small pans with heavy handles are likely to be incompatible with the Precision Cooktop Sensor.
Do not allow the bottom of the pan or cookware to touch the surrounding metal cooktop trim.
For best performance, match the pan size to the element size. Using a smaller pot on a larger burner will generate less power at any given setting. CAFE
CHS90XM2NS5 30 Inch Slide In Induction Range - fig 8Suitable Cookware
Use quality cookware with heavier bottoms for better heat distribution and even cooking results. Choose cookware made of magnetic stainless steel, enamel coated cast iron, enameled steel or combinations of these materials.
Some cookware is specifically identified by the manufacturer for use with induction cooktops. Use a magnet to test if the cookware will work.
Flat-bottomed pans give best results. Pans with rims or slight ridges can be used.
Round pans give best results. Pans with warped or curved bottoms will not heat evenly.
For wok cooking, use a flat-bottomed wok. Do not use a wok with a support ring.
NOTE: The warming zone is NOT an induction element and will work with flat bottomed cookware that is NOT ferrous.CAFE CHS90XM2NS5 30 Inch Slide In
Induction Range - fig 9

Cookware “Sounds”
Slight sounds may be produced by different types of cookware. Heavier pans such as enameled cast iron produce less sound than a lighter weight multi-ply stainless steel pan. The size of the pan, and the amount of contents, can also contribute to the sound level.
When using adjacent elements that are set at certain power level settings, magnetic fields may interact and produce a high pitch whistle or intermittent “hum”. These sounds can be reduced or eliminated by lowering or raising the power level settings of one or both of the elements. Pans that completely cover the element ring will produce less sound.
A low “humming” sound is normal particularly on high settings.
Sounds you may here: You may hear a slight “Buzz” when cooking with Hi mode. This is normal. The sound depends on the type of pot being used. Some pots will “Buzz” louder depending on the material. A “Buzz” sound may be heard if the pan contents are cold. As the pan heats, the sound will decrease. If the power level is reduced, the sound level will go down.
Power Control
If a surface unit is on power level H (high), for an extended period of time or if multiple surface units are on, there may be a slight reduction in power to the surface unit. Water under pans may also cause the controls to reduce the power delivered to the cookware.
Cookware Recommendations
Cookware must fully contact the surface of the cooking element.
Use flat-bottomed pans sized to fit the cooking element and also to the amount of food being prepared.
Induction interface disks are NOT recommended.CAFE CHS90XM2NS5 30 Inch Slide

Precision Cooking

The Precision Cooking feature allows precise temperature control for improved results. This feature may be used with the Precision Cooktop Sensor on the front left burner or with compatible Bluetooth paired cooking devices on any burner. Only one burner may operate in precision cook mode at a time.
For WiFi Connected Ranges
If the range is Wi-Fi connected, then the Precision Cooktop temperature may be set from the SmartHQ mobile app instead of the burner control. At any time, controls on the range may be used to turn Off or override a temperature setting. See Settings – Wi-Fi & Remote Enable
Pairing a Bluetooth® Device
To pair a Bluetooth device, refer to Settings section.

trouble maintaining lower set temperatures try changing your set up by:
•Remove the lid from the pot.
•Use a larger diameter pot.
•Use a smaller burner with a pot larger than the burner. Can also be used to hold
foods at a specific temperature for applications like melted chocolate for dipping or fondue. If using for these scenarios. use traditional power control settings to bring the item to the target temperature first, then use the precision probe to hold.

NOTE: only one precision cooking device may operate at a time
Precision Cooking Control Modes
There are two control modes available:
App Control – the user interacts with SmartHQ or Hestan Cue mobile app.
Local Control – the user interacts with the burner to set a target temperature and no App use is required.
App Control
After activating your device on your selected burner, open the SmartHQ mobile app designed to control the selected device. Depending on the device and application, the set temperature may be shown in the unit display, in the SmartHQ mobile app, or hidden from view.
NOTE: Use of Local Control mode is blocked upon entering App Control mode.
Local Control
After activating your device on your selected burner, use glide touch control to set temperature. The set temperature will be shown in the display. To use Hestan Cue® for temperature control and recipes, open the Hestan Cue® app and follow on screen instructions.
NOTE: Use of App Control mode is blocked upon entering Local Control mode
Precision Cooktop Sensor
Cookware needs to make contact with the sensor for proper operation of the left front burner on models with the precision cooktop sensor. Cookware will bow naturally during heating therefore cookware with recessed bottoms including griddles should not be used due to risk of not having proper contact with sensor.
Bowed cookware is at risk of improper contact with the sensor and poor cooking performance and damage to the sensor are likely.

Oven Racks

Recommended rack positions for various types of foods are provided in the Cooking Guide. Adjusting rack position is one way to impact cooking results. For example, if you would prefer darker tops on cakes, muffins, or cookies, try moving food one rack position higher. If you find foods are too brown on top try moving them down next time.
When baking with multiple pans and on multiple racks, ensure there is at least 1½” between pans to allow sufficient space for air to flow.
Your Oven may have extension racks and/or traditional flat racks.
To avoid possible burns, place the racks in the desired position before you turn the oven on.

Extension Racks

Always pull the rack out by its upper front rail to its fully open position, when placing or removing cookware.
If extension racks are difficult to extend, lubricate the racks with the graphite lubricant provided with your oven. Remove the rack from the oven, remove debris in the side tracks with a paper towel, shake the graphite lubricant and place 4 small drops on the two bottom tracks of the left and right sides. Open and close the rack several times to distribute the lubricant.
To order additional graphite lubricant, see the Accessories and Consumer Support sections at the end of this manual.
To Remove An Extension Rack:

  1. Make sure the rack is pushed all the way into the oven so that side paddles on the rack disengage from the oven support.
  2. Slide the rack toward you to the bump (stop position) on the rack support.
  3. Firmly grasp both sides of the rack frame and the sliding rack, tilt the front end up and pull it out.

To Replace An Extension Rack:

  1. Firmly grasp both sides of the rack frame and the sliding rack.
  2. Place the curved end of the rack (stop-locks) onto the oven supports, tilt up the front of the rack and push it in as far as it will go.

If extension racks are difficult to replace or remove, wipe the oven rack supports with vegetable oil. Do not wipe oil on the rack slides.
To Lubricate the Paddle:
Shake lubricant and apply to the moving parts of the paddle mechanisms as shown.CAFE CHS90XM2NS5 30 Inch Slide In Induction Range - fig

Aluminum Foil and Oven Liners

CAUTION
Do not use any type of foil or oven liner to cover the oven bottom. These items can trap heat or melt, resulting in damage to the product and risk of shock, smoke or fire. Damage from improper use of these items is not covered by the product warranty.
Foil may be used to catch spills by placing a sheet on a lower rack, several inches below the food. Do not use more foil than necessary and never entirely cover an oven rack with aluminum foil. Keep foil at least 1-1/2″ from oven walls to prevent poor heat circulation.

Cookware

Cookware Guidelines
The material, finish, and size of cookware affect baking performance.
Dark, coated and dull pans absorb heat more readily than light, shiny pans. Pans that absorb heat more readily can result in a browner, crisper, and thicker crust. If using dark and coated cookware check food earlier than minimum cook time. If undesirable results are obtained with this type of cookware consider reducing oven temperature by 25°F next time. Shiny pans can produce more evenly cooked baked goods such as cakes and cookies.
Glass and ceramic pans heat slowly but retain heat well.
These types of pans work well for dishes such as pies and custards.
Air insulated pans heat slowly and can reduce bottom browning.
Stoneware heats slowly and retains heat well. It is recommended to preheat this type of cookware if possible. Additional cook time may be required.

Cooking Modes

Your new oven has a variety of cooking modes to help you get the best results. These modes are described below. Refer to the Cooking Guide section for recommendations for specific foods. Remember, your new oven may perform differently than the oven it is replacing.
Temperature Setting
When selecting a temperature, the traditional preset temperatures are shown and can be selected by scrolling horizontally and selecting the desired temperature. If you wish to cook at an alternate temperature, press the temperature in the middle of the screen and a number pad will appear so the desired temperature can be input.
Bake
The traditional bake mode is intended for single rack cooking. This mode uses heat primarily from the lower element but also from the upper element to cook food.
To use this mode press the Bake option on the main menu and scroll to the desired temperature and press Start. Preheating is generally recommended when using this mode.
Broiling Modes
Always broil with the door closed. The broil element in this oven is very powerful. Monitor food closely while broiling. Use caution when broiling on upper rack positions as placing food closer to the broil element increases smoking, spattering, and the possibility of fats igniting. Broiling on rack position 6 is not recommended.
Broiling can be used for foods that would typically be grilled. Adjust the rack position in order to vary the intensity of the heat to the food. Place foods closer to the broil element when a seared surface and rare interior are desired. For best performance, center the food below the broil heating element.
Broil
Select Broil on the main menu, then select High or Low depending on the amount of searing and the internal temperature that is preferred. The High setting is best for the interior. The Low setting is preferred for thicker cuts of meat and foods you like to be cooked all the way through. It is not necessary to preheat the oven for these modes. Convection Modes
These modes utilize heat from the traditional upper and lower elements combined with the convection element and consistent airflow to enhance evenness. Your oven is equipped with Auto Recipe Conversion so that it automatically adjusts the amount of heat to maintain the proper temperature when using the modes with specified temperatures. Preheating is recommended for these modes.
Convection Bake Multi Rack
This mode has been designed to allow for more even cooking when multiple racks are utilized. Baking time may be slightly longer than what would be expected for a single rack. To use this mode, select Convect, then Bake Multi-Rack, scroll to the desired temperature, and press Start. Preheating is generally recommended when using this mode.
Convection Roast
This mode is intended for roasting whole cuts of meat on a single rack. The utilization of all three elements and direct airflow down from the top of the oven improvesbrowning and reduces cooking time. Check food earlier than the recipe suggests or use the probe when using this mode. To use this mode, select Convect, then press Roast, scroll to the desired temperature, and press Start.
Proof
Proof mode is designed for rising (fermenting and proofing) bread doughs. Press the More option on the main menu, then Proof, then Start. Cover dough well to prevent drying out. Bread will rise more rapidly than at room temperature. NOTE: Do not use the Proof mode for warming food or keeping food hot. The proofing oven
temperature is not hot enough to hold foods at safe temperatures.
Warm
Warm mode is designed to keep hot foods at a higher temperature for up to 3 hours. To use this mode, select More from the main menu, then Warm, then press Start. Preheating is not required. Do not use warm to heat cold  food other than crisping crackers, chips, or dry cereal. It is also recommended that food not be kept warm for more than 2 hours.
Precision Cooking
These modes provide guidance or pre-set cooking algorithms to assist the user in cooking various types of food. The selection you make in the Precision Cooking menu will guide you to input the information required to help cook your food. At the end of estimated cooking time, check the food to see if it is done to your liking. Note that differences in food shape, preparation and preferences for doneness can impact the time required to cook the food.
Some cycles require the food temperature probe supplied with your oven. The target temperature for the probe is automatically set based on selections made for each food. Always check foods using a secondary food thermometer as probe placement can impact the measured temperature. See Probe section for more details on using and positioning the probe properly.
On some pages will show up. Press to access additional information that pertains to the cooking cycles within that category.
Additional cycles will be available through software updates. Connect your oven to have access to these updates. See the Wi-Fi Connect section for details on how to connect your oven.
Pre-Heat
Proper preheating ensures that the oven is hot enough to begin baking. Improper preheating (that is, cooking in the oven that has not come up to set temperature) can negatively affect cooking. Depending on the recipe recommendations, the temperature of your foods when they go into the oven may determine your final baking time and baking results; if you put your food, such as biscuits or breads, in during Pre-heat, they may over brown on top or burn.
IMPORTANT: The more items to be heated in the oven during preheat (this includes multiple racks, baking stones, etc.) will affect the length of your pre-heat time. Always begin baking after the pre-heat signal. The signal will be a beep, indicaotr light or chime. This lets you know your oven is at your needed baking temperature. For best results, turn the oven On before you begin your prep work.

Oven Door Camera (on some models)

The Oven Door Camera allows for remote viewing of the center of the oven cavity using the SmartHQ mobile app. Download the SmartHQ mobile app and follow instructions in the SmartHQ mobile app to connect your range. From the app’s home page, select your range, then tap on the camera icon to start the camera stream to your smart device. The oven lights will illuminate while the camera is streaming. The camera stream will stop if the oven door is opened, and is not allowed during certain modes such as Proof and Self Clean.
Soils on the oven door glass and oven cavity light cover may cause an unclear oven camera image. Refer to Care and Cleaning section for door glass cleaning instructions.
For best results, clean door glass immediately after spillage once the oven has cooled.

Probe

WARNING
Consuming undercooked food can result in foodborne illness. Use probe according to the following instructions to ensure all portions of the food reach minimum safe cooking temperatures. Recommendations for minimum safe food temperatures can be found at foodsafety.gov or IsItDoneYet.gov.
Internal food temperature is frequently used as an indicator of doneness, especially for roasts and poultry. The Probe mode monitors the internal food temperature and turns the oven off when the internal food temperature reaches the programmed temperature.
Always check the temperature at multiple locations in the food with a food thermometer after cooking to ensure that all portions of the food have reached the minimum safe internal temperature for that food.
Proper Probe Placement
After preparing the meat and placing it on the cooking pan follow these instructions for proper probe placement.
■ Insert the probe into the food, so that the tip of the probe will rest in the center of the thickest part of the food. For best performance the probe should be fully inserted into the food. If the probe is not located properly, it may not accurately measure the temperature of the coolest portion of the food. Some foods, particularly small items, are not well suited for cooking with the probe due to their shape or size.
■ The probe should not touch bone, fat or gristle.
■ For whole poultry insert the probe into the thickest part of the breast.
■ For boneless roasts, insert the probe into the center of the roast.
■ For bone-in ham or lamb, insert the probe into the center of the lowest large muscle or joint.
■ For casseroles or dishes such as meatloaf, insert the probe into the center of the dish.
■ For fish, insert the probe from just above the gill into the meatiest area, parallel to the backbone.

Probe Usage
To use the probe without preheating:

  1. Insert the probe into the food (see Proper Probe Placement).
  2. Place the food in the oven and connect the probe into the probe outlet in the oven.
  3. Select the desired cooking mode and temperature. Before pressing start, press the Probe icon at the bottom left of the screen. The probe setting screen will be displayed. Enter the desired internal food temperature and press Start. The probe temperature can be set between 100°F and 200°F.

To use the probe with preheating:

  1. Press the desired cook mode (Traditional Bake, Convection Bake, or Convection Roast) pad and enter the desired cooking temperature.
  2. Insert the probe into the food (see Proper Probe Placement).
  3. Once the oven is preheated, place the food in the oven and connect the probe to the probe outlet, making sure it is fully inserted. Use caution, the oven walls and probe outlet are hot.
  4. The oven will detect that the probe has been inserted and the probe setting screen will be displayed. Enter the desired internal food temperature and press Start. The probe temperature can be set between 100°F and 200°F.

Probe Care Guidelines
■ Use of probes other than the one provided with this product may result in damage to the probe input jack.
■ Use the handles of the probe and plug when inserting and removing them from the meat and outlet
■ To avoid damaging your probe, do not use tongs to pull on the cable when removing it.
■ To avoid breaking the probe, make sure food is completely defrosted before inserting the probe.
■ To prevent possible burns, do not unplug the probe from the outlet until the oven has cooled.
■ Never leave the probe inside the oven during a self or steam clean cycle.
■ Do not store the probe in the oven.

Cleaning the Range – Interior

The interior of your new oven can be cleaned manually or by using Steam Clean or Self Clean modes. Spillage of marinades, fruit juices, tomato sauces and basting liquids containing acids may cause discoloration and should be wiped up immediately. Let hot surfaces cool, then clean and rinse.
IMPORTANT: For models with Oven Camera in the door: If door glass or oven cavity light cover is not clean, camera image clarity may be affected. Please follow directions below to properly clean the door glass. For best results, clean door glass and oven light cover immediately after spillage once the oven has cooled.
Manual Cleaning
Do not use oven cleaners (unless certified for selfcleaning oven), abrasive cleaners, strong liquid cleansers, steel wool, or scouring pads on the interior of the oven. For soils on the oven bottom and other enameled surfaces, use a gentle abrasive containing ® , with a non-scratch sponge. Take care not to apply any abrasive cleaners or sponges to the door glass, as it will scratch the reflective coating. The oven interior and door glass may be cleaned using a soft cloth with a mild soap and water, or vinegar and water solution. After cleaning, rinse with clean water and dry with a soft cloth.
Steam Clean Mode
The Steam Clean feature is for cleaning light soil from your oven at a lower temperature than Self Clean.
To use the Steam Clean feature:

  1. Start with the oven at room temperature.
  2. Wipe excess grease and soils from the oven.
  3. Pour one cup of water onto the bottom of the oven.
  4. Close the door.
  5. Touch the LCD screen, select Oven. Select More, and then select Steam Clean.

Do not open the door during the 30 minute steam clean as this will decrease the steam clean performance. At the end of the Steam Clean cycle, soak up the remaining water, and wipe the moisture-softened soil from the oven walls and door.
Self Clean Mode (on some models)
Read Self-Cleaning Oven Safety Instructions at the beginning of this manual before using the Self Clean Mode. Self Clean uses very high temperatures to clean the oven interior. For a moderately soiled oven, run a 3 hour self-clean cycle. For a heavily soiled oven, run a 5 hour self-clean cycle. Only self- clean (black) racks may remain in the oven during the self-clean cycle. All other items, including nickel plated (silver) racks, should be removed. If nickel plated (silver) racks are left in the oven during a self-clean cycle, the racks will tarnish. If either type of rack is left in the oven during a self-clean cycle, the rack may become difficult to slide. See the Oven Racks section for  instructions on how to improve.
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 wellventilated room.
To use the Self Clean feature:

  1. Start with the oven at roomtemperature.
  2. Wipe excess grease and soils from the oven and interior door.
  3. Remove all items other than self-clean (black) racks, if desired. Refer to the Rack portion of the Cleaning the Range section of this manual for important details about self clean (black) racks.
  4. Close the door.
  5. Select the More option from the menu and then select Self Clean.
  6. Select any clean time between 3 and 5 hours on the LCD screen and press the Start/Cancel button to the right of LCD screen.

You cannot open the door during the self-clean cycle. The door will remain locked after the self-clean cycle until the oven cools below the unlocking temperature. At the end
of the self-clean cycle, allow the oven to cool and wipe any ash out of the oven.
To Stop a Self-Clean Cycle
press the Start/Cancel button to the right of LCD screen. Wait until the oven has cooled below the locking temperature to unlatch the door. You will not be able to open the door right away unless the oven has cooled below the locking temperature.
