Temperature Calibration

IMPORTANT:
Do not use a thermometer to measure the oven temperature. Elements will cycle on and off as needed to maintain a consistent temperature but may run slightly hot or cool at any point in time due to this cycling. Opening the oven door will affect cycling of the elements and impact the temperature. The oven provides accurate temperatures and has been thoroughly tested at the factory. However, it may cook faster or slower than your previous oven, causing baking or browning differences. If necessary, the temperature calibration can be adjusted in either Fahrenheit or Celsius. A minus sign means the oven will be cooler by the displayed amount. The absence of a minus sign means the oven will be warmer by the displayed amount. Use the following chart as a guide. The oven display will continue to show the original set temperature and will not reflect the calibration offset. For example, if set to 350°F (177°C) and calibrated to -20, the display will continue to show 350°F (177°C). Adjust the oven temp up to (+,-) 30°F (-18°C).
It is recommended to make changes in 5°F (3°C) increments until desired results are achieved.
To Adjust Oven Temperature Calibration:

1.  Press the Tools keypad.
2. Select MORE MODES.
3. Select TEMPERATURE CALIBRATION.
4. Scroll from left to right to increase or decrease the temperature.

Aqua Lift® Self-Cleaning Technology
Aqua Lift® Self-Cleaning Technology is a first-of-its-kind cleaning solution designed to minimize the time, temperature, and odors that ordinarily come with traditional self-cleaning methods. With Aqua Lift® Self-Cleaning Technology, an innovative coating on the interior of the oven is activated with heat and water to release baked-on soil. To use Aqua Lift® Self-Cleaning Technology, simply wipe out loose debris, pour water into the oven bottom, and run the Aqua Lift® Self-Cleaning cycle. When the cycle finishes in under 1 hour at a lower temperature than in traditional self-cleaning methods, just wipe out the remaining water and loose debris. See the “Clean Cycle” section in the Owner’s Manual for more detailed instructions. For additional information, frequently asked questions and videos on using Aqua Lift® Self- Cleaning Technology, visit our website at
http://whirlpoolcorp.com/aqualift.
Surface Temperatures
When the range is in use, all range surfaces may become hot, such as the knobs and oven door. Baking, Warming or Storage Drawer When the oven is in use, the drawer may become hot. Do not store plastics, cloth, or other items that could melt or burn in the drawer. Oven Vent The oven vent releases hot air and moisture from the oven, and should not be blocked or covered. Do not set plastics, paper, or other items that could melt or burn near the oven vent.
Surface Burners
IMPORTANT:
Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air around the burner grate edges.
Burner cap: Always keep the burner cap in place when using a surface burner. A clean burner cap will help avoid poor ignition and uneven flames. Always clean the burner cap after a spillover, and routinely remove and clean the caps according to the “General Cleaning” section in the Owner’s Manual.
NOTE:
Each round burner base is marked with a letter indicating the burner size.
Alignment: Be sure to align the gas tube opening in the burner base with the orifice holder on the cooktop and the igniter electrode with the notch in the burner base.

• A. Burner cap
• B. Gas tube opening
• C. Burner base
• D. Igniter electrode
• E. Orifice holder

Gas tube opening: Gas must flow freely throughout the gas tube opening for the burner to light properly. Keep this area free of soil, and do not allow spills, food, cleaning agents, or any other material to enter the gas tube opening. Keep spillovers out of the gas tube opening by always using a burner cap.

• A. 1-1 1/2″ (2.5-3.8 cm)
• B. Burner ports

Burner Ports: Check burner flames occasionally for proper size and shape as shown in the previous illustration. A good flame is blue in color, not yellow. Keep this area free of soil, and do not allow spills, food, cleaning agents, or any other material to enter the burner ports.
To Clean:
IMPORTANT:
Before cleaning, make sure all controls are off and the cooktop is cool. Do not use oven cleaners, bleach, or rust removers. Do not wash in the dishwasher.

1. Remove the burner cap and the burner base, and clean according to the “General Cleaning” section in the Owner’s Manual.

2. Clean the gas tube opening with a damp cloth.

3. Clean clogged burner ports with a straight pin as shown. Do not enlarge or distort the port. Do not use a wooden toothpick. If the burner needs to be adjusted, contact a trained repair specialist.
   

4.  Replace the burner base. The burner bases and caps must be properly positioned before cooking. Your range comes with three sizes of burners and caps. Each round burner base is marked with a letter indicating the burner size. See the following illustration for burner positions.

   • A. Small (AUX)
   • B. X-Large(UR)
   • C. Oval
   • A. Medium(SR)
   • B. Wok

5. Each round burner cap is marked with a letter indicating the burner size. Replace the burner cap, making sure it is properly aligned with the burner base. Burner caps should be level when properly positioned. If burner caps are not properly positioned, surface burners will not light. The burner cap should not rock or wobble when properly aligned.

   • A. Incorrect

   • B. Correct
     IMPORTANT:
     The bottom of the small and medium caps are different. Do not put the wrong size burner cap on the burner base.

   • Small cap (AUX)

   • Medium cap (SR)

   • X-Large cap (UR)

6.  Turn on the burner. If the burner does not light, check cap alignment. If the burner still does not light, turn off the burner. Do not service the burner yourself. Contact a trained repair specialist.

Surface Grates
The grates must be properly positioned before cooking. In the proper position, the grates should be flush and level. Improper installation of the grates may result in chipping or scratching of the cooktop. To ensure proper positioning, align bumpers on grate bottom with the indentations in the cooktop.

• A. Bumpers
• B. Alignment indentations

The surface grates interlock using the hook on one end of the grate and the indent on the other. To remove the grates, lift the rear of the left grate off the hook, and then lift the front of the right grate off the hook and pull apart. To replace the grates, replace the left grate first. Place the front indent of the right grate over the hook of the left grate, and then lift the rear of the left grate and place the indent over the hook on the right grate.

• A. Hook
• B. Indent

Although the burner grates are durable, they will gradually lose their shine and/or discolor due to the high temperatures of the gas flame.
Cookware
IMPORTANT:
Do not leave empty cookware on a hot surface cooking area, element or surface burner.
Ideal cookware should have a flat bottom, straight sides and a well-fitting lid, and the material should be of medium-to-heavy thickness. Rough finishes may scratch the cooktop or grates. Aluminum and copper may be used as a core or base in cookware. However, when used as a base they can leave permanent marks on the grates. Cookware material is a factor in how quickly and evenly heat is transferred, which affects cooking results. A nonstick finish has the same characteristics as its base material. For example, aluminum cookware with a nonstick finish will take on the properties of aluminum. Cookware with nonstick surfaces should not be used under the broiler. Check for flatness by placing the straight edge of a ruler across the bottom of the cookware. While you rotate the ruler, no space or light should be visible between it and the cookware.
Use the following chart as a guide for cookware material characteristics.For best results, the cookware should be centered above the burner with the bottom sitting level on the grate. The flame should be adjusted so that it does not extend up the sides of the pan.
Home Canning
When canning for long periods, alternate the use of surface burners between batches. This allows time for the most recently used areas to cool.

•  Center the canner on the grate above the burner.
•  Do not place canner on 2 surface burners at the same time.
•  For more information, contact your local agricultural extension office or refer to published home canning guides. Companies that manufacture home canning products can also offer assistance.

OVEN USE

Odors and smoke are normal when the oven is used the first few times or when it is heavily soiled.
IMPORTANT:
The health of some birds is extremely sensitive to the fumes given off. Exposure to the fumes may result in death to certain birds. Always move birds to another closed and well ventilated room.
Positioning Racks and Bakeware
Use the following illustrations and chart as a guide.
The oven has seven positions for a flat rack, as shown in the previous illustration and the following table.
IMPORTANT:
If your model has a Max Capacity Oven Rack, the recessed ends must be placed in the rack position above the desired position of the food. See the following illustration.

• A. Ends of rack in position 3
• B. Food in position 2

IMPORTANT:
These rack positions are for flat racks. If a Max Capacity Oven Rack is used, the rack position must be adjusted as shown in the previous figure.
Bakeware
To cook food evenly, hot air must be able to circulate. Allow 2″ (5 cm) of space around bakeware and oven walls. Make sure that no bakeware piece is directly over another.
Multiple Rack Cooking
Two-rack (non-convection): Use rack positions 2 and 5 or 3 and 6. Two-rack (convection): Use rack positions 2 and 5 or 3 and 6. Three-rack (convection): Use rack positions 2 and 7 and a Max Capacity Oven Rack in rack position 5.

Baking and Roasting

Preheating
When beginning a Bake, Convect Bake, or Convect Roast cycle, the oven will begin preheating after Start is pressed. The oven will take approximately 12 to 15 minutes to reach 350°F (177°C) with all of the oven racks provided with your oven inside the oven cavity. Higher temperatures will take longer to preheat. The preheat cycle rapidly increases the oven temperature. The actual oven temperature will go above your set temperature to offset the heat lost when your oven door is opened to insert food. This ensures that when you place your food in the oven, the oven will begin at the proper temperature. Insert your food when the preheat tone sounds. Do not open the door during preheat before the tone sounds.
Rapid Preheat
Rapid Preheat can be used to shorten the preheating time. Only one standard flat oven rack should be in the oven during Rapid Preheat. Extra racks should be removed prior to starting Rapid Preheat. The preheating cycle should be completed before placing food in the oven. When the Rapid Preheat cycle is complete, the oven starts a normal Bake cycle.
IMPORTANT:
Rapid Preheat should be used only for one-rack baking.
Oven Temperature
While in use, the oven elements will cycle on and off as needed to maintain a consistent temperature, but they may run slightly hot or cool at any point in time due to this cycling. Opening the oven door while in use will release the hot air and cool the oven which could impact the cooking time and performance. It is recommended to use the oven light to monitor cooking progress.
NOTE:
On models with convection, the convection fan may run in the non-convection bake mode to improve oven performance.
Temperature Management System
The Temperature Management System electronically regulates the oven heat levels during preheat and bake to maintain a precise temperature range for optimal cooking results. The bake and broil elements or burners cycle on and off in intervals. On convection range models, the fan will run while preheating and may be cycled on and off for short intervals during bake to provide the best results. This feature is automatically activated when the oven is in use. Before baking and roasting, position racks according to the
“Positioning Racks and Bakeware” section. When roasting, it is not necessary to wait for the oven preheat cycle to end before putting food in unless it is recommended in the recipe.
Frozen Bake™
Frozen Bake™ Technology automatically adjusts the manufacturer’s bake time by combining preheating and baking, to deliver great packaged frozen food results without the wait. There are six programmed food options to choose from: Pizza, Lasagna, Nuggets, Fries, Pie, and Meal. The Frozen Bake™ cycles have been customized to work only with these foods. When using Frozen Bake™ Technology, it is important that you follow all manufacturer’s instructions including venting, covering, stirring or placing on a baking sheet to ensure a good result. When cooking frozen meals, only cook items that provide instructions for cooking in a conventional oven. Place your dish in the center of the rack and select one of the rack positions recommended for Frozen Bake in the “Positioning Racks and Bakeware” section and bake only one package or pan at a time. Use the temperature and maximum bake time from the package. A tone will alert you to check the food for doneness before the cook time is complete and again at the end of the cook time. The display will prompt you to add additional cook time if desired or needed at end the cycle.
Broiling
When broiling, preheat the oven for 5 minutes before putting food in, unless recommended otherwise in the recipe. Position food on grid in a broiler pan, and then place it in the center of the oven rack.
IMPORTANT: Close the door to ensure proper broiling temperature.
Changing the temperature when broiling allows more precise control when cooking. The lower the broil setting is, the slower the cooking. Thicker cuts and unevenly shaped pieces of meat, fish and poultry may cook better at lower broil settings. Use rack 6 or 7 for broiling. Refer to the “Positioning Racks and Bakeware” section for more information. On lower settings, the broil element will cycle on and off to maintain the proper temperature.

• For best results, use a broiler pan and grid. It is designed to drain juices and help avoid spatter and smoke. If you would like to purchase a broiler pan, one may be ordered. See the Quick Start Guide for contact information.

Convection Cooking
In a convection oven, the fan-circulated hot air continually distributes heat more evenly than the natural movement of air in a standard thermal oven. This movement of hot air helps maintain a consistent temperature throughout the oven, cooking foods more evenly, crisping surfaces while sealing in moisture and yielding crustier breads.
During convection baking or roasting, the bake, broil, and convection elements cycle on and off in intervals while the fan circulates the hot air. During convection broiling, the broil and convection elements cycle on and off. If the oven door is opened during convection cooking, the fan will turn off immediately. It will come back on when the oven door is closed. With convection cooking, most foods can be cooked at a lower temperature and/or a shorter cooking time than in a standard thermal oven. Use the following chart as a guide.
Convect Options
Convect Bake – multiple-rack baking or cookies, biscuits, breads, casseroles, tarts, tortes, cakes Convect Roast – whole chicken or turkey, vegetables, pork roasts, beef roasts Convect Broil – thicker cuts or unevenly shaped pieces of meat, fish, or poultry
