COOKTOP FEATURES

BURNERS
WARNING

Fire Hazard
Do not let the burner flame extend beyond the edge of the pan.
Turn off all controls when not cooking.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death or fire.

BTU/hr Large stacked burner

BURNER APPEARANCE

Large burner

FEATURES This burner has an upper and lower level of flame. The H setting uses both flame levels at full power to provide the highest heat. It is ideal for cooking large quantities of food or liquid and using large pots and pans. The Simmer H and L settings use the lower flame only. This burner is ideal for cooking large quantities of food.

When the burner knob for the desired burner is turned to the position, the burner will click independent of the other
burners. REMEMBER: When range is in use or during the SelfCleaning cycle, the entire cooktop area may become hot.

Reignition Feature
During cooktop use, if one or more burners are extinguished due to external causes (such as a water spill, wind, or ventilation draft), the ignition system will turn on to reignite the flame. When the flame comes back on, the system will stop sparking. If the draft in the room is not removed, occasional sparking may continue. Sparking may also occasionally occur when using the low setting on a burner.
To Set a Burner:

1. Push in and turn 2. Turn knob

counterclockwise

counterclockwise

to .

between H and L.

Turn knob counterclockwise further for Simmer H and Simmer L.

In Case of Power Failure
Hold a lit match near a burner and turn knob counterclockwise to H. After burner lights, turn knob to desired setting.

Small burner

This burner is ideal for cooking smaller quantities of food and melting chocolate or butter.

Igniting Burners:
Electric igniters automatically light the surface burners when burner knobs are turned to .
Before setting a burner knob, place filled cookware on the grate. Do not operate a burner using empty cookware or without any cookware on the grate.
Visually check that the burner has lit. If the burner does not ignite, listen for the clicking sound. If you do not hear the igniter click, turn off the burner. Check for a tripped circuit breaker or blown fuse. Check that the burner knob is pressed completely down on the valve shaft. If the spark igniter still does not operate, call a trained repair specialist.

SEALED SURFACE BURNERS

Sealed surface burners are designed to minimize gaps and seams that can allow liquids and spills to get under the cooktop. This design makes cleanup quick and easy.

COOKTOP FEATURES

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 “Care and Cleaning” section. Gas opening: Gas must flow freely throughout the gas 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 opening. Keep spillovers out of the gas opening by always using a burner cap.

Large Burner A B

A Upper (main) flame
B Lower (simmer) flame

Burner Ports:
Check burner flames occasionally for proper size and shape as shown above. 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.
WOK RING GRATES
Some grates on the unit are designed for use with a wok. These grates can be used over the high power burners (LF or RF) or can be used for improved melting performance when used with the small, low power burners (RR or CR). To use for wok cooking, place the grates with the removable ring over the LF or RF burner, remove the center ring and set it aside. A 14″ (35.5 cm) or larger wok pan will rest in the opening of the grate for optimum cooking with your wok. To use for improved melting performance, place the grates with the removable ring over the small, low power burner. Turn the center ring upside down and reposition it in the center of the grate so the pan will be farther away from the heat source.
To Use:

CHROME ELECTRIC GRIDDLE (on some models)
The chrome electric griddle provides the perfect cooking surface for grilled sandwiches, pancakes, eggs, burgers, sautéed vegetables, and many more family favorites. The attractive low-stick surface is designed to make cleanup easy.

USING YOUR OVEN

OVEN USE
Odors and smoke are normal when the oven is used the first few times, or when it is heavily soiled. During oven use, the heating elements will not remain on, but will cycle on and off throughout oven operation. 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 wellventilated room.

Aluminum Foil IMPORTANT: To avoid permanent damage to the oven bottom finish, do not line the oven bottom with any type of foil or liner. For best cooking results, do not cover rack with foil because
air must be able to move freely. To catch spills, place foil on rack below dish. Make sure
foil is at least 1/2″ (1.3 cm) larger than the dish and that it is turned up at the edges.

Positioning Racks and Bakeware IMPORTANT: To avoid permanent damage to the porcelain finish, do not place food or bakeware directly on the oven door or bottom.

When placing racks in adjacent positions, start by loading the lower rack positions first and then installing the rack in the position immediately above it.

Oven Vent

The oven vent should

not be blocked or covered

since it allows the release of

hot air and moisture from the

oven. Blocking or covering

the vent will cause poor air

circulation, affecting cooking

and cleaning results. Do not

set plastics, paper, or other

items that could melt or burn

near the oven vent.

A

Cooling Fan

A Oven vent

The oven has a dual speed cooling fan motor.

When the oven temperature is in the Self-Cleaning cycle, the fan will operate at its highest speed to increase airflow and better exhaust the hotter air through the oven vent(s). An increase in noise may be noticeable until the oven cools.

NOTE: Cooling fan may continue to run after the oven has been turned off.

USING YOUR OVEN

BAKE
The Bake mode relies primarily on heat from the lower bake element and radiant heat from the oven cavity to produce the perfect conditions for cakes, cookies, quick breads, yeast breads, meatloaf, and baked desserts. This mode is perfect for foods that require both upper and lower browning.

Know Your Bake Mode During baking, the
appropriate heating elements and fan(s) will cycle on and off in intervals to maintain the oven temperature.

Bake is used to cook up to 2 racks of food.

For best results, allow

the oven to preheat prior to placing food in

C

the oven.

If the oven door is opened during baking, the bake burner will turn off approximately 30 seconds after the door is opened. It will turn on again approximately 30 seconds after the door is closed.

BROIL
The Broil mode uses intense heat from above to cook foods quickly and is ideal when you want rich, flavorful browning of exterior surfaces. Use for steak, chicken, pork, fish, or vegetables like onions and peppers. This mode can also brown and crisp desserts or casserole toppings.

Know Your Broil Mode

Broiling uses direct

radiant heat to cook

food.

A

The broil burner cycles

on and off in intervals

to maintain the oven

temperature.

If the oven door is opened during broiling, the broil element will turn off in approximately 30 seconds. When the oven door is closed, the elements will come back on approximately 30 seconds after the door is closed.

A Broil

20

For best results, use a broiler pan and grid. It is designed to drain juices and help avoid spatter and smoke.
For proper draining, do not cover the grid with foil. The bottom of the broiler pan may be lined with aluminum foil for easier cleaning.
Trim excess fat to reduce spattering. Slit the remaining fat on the edges to avoid curling.
When broiling, changing the temperature allows more precise control. Lowering the temperature causes food to cook slower. Thicker cuts and unevenly shaped pieces of meat, fish, and poultry may cook better at lower broiling temperatures.
Pull out oven rack to stop position before turning or removing food. Use tongs to turn food to avoid the loss of juices. Very thin cuts of fish, poultry, or meat may not need to be turned.
After broiling, remove the pan of food from the oven. Drippings will bake on the pan if left in the heated oven, making cleaning more difficult.
To Use Broil: For best results, preheat oven for 5 minutes. Position food on the grid on the broiler pan, then place pan in the center of the oven rack and center your pan under the broil element.
CONVECT BROIL
During convection broiling, the element will cycle on and off in intervals to maintain oven temperature, while the fans circulate the hot air. Cooking times will vary with the rack location and temperature selected. The elements and fan turn off immediately if the door is opened and turn on again immediately when the door is closed.
Know Your Convect Broil Mode For best results, preheat oven for 5 minutes before inserting
food. See Broil mode for tips and recommendations.
Keep WarmTM Option The Keep WarmTM option allows hot cooked foods to stay at serving temperature. It can also be used at the end of a timed cook.
WARNING
Food Poisoning Hazard Do not let food sit in oven more than one hour before or after cooking. Doing so can result in food poisoning or sickness.
IMPORTANT: Food must be at serving temperature before placing it in the warmed oven. Food may be held up to 1 hour; however, it is recommended that foods be covered with aluminum foil to help retain moisture and avoid becoming dry during holding.
To Use Keep Warm 1. Turn the Mode Knob to the Bake position. 2. Turn the Temperature Knob to the Warm position. 3. Press the Start button.
NOTE: Keep Warm defaults to 175ºF (79.4ºC).

CONVECTION COOKING
Convection cooking can cook foods more evenly and faster than regular cooking. The convection elements are located in the rear of the oven cavity. They are assisted by the convection fans to provide balanced, efficient heating.

A
B C D

A Convection fans B Broil element C Convection element C Bake element
CONVECT BAKE
The Convection Bake mode uses multiple elements and a fan to circulate hot air throughout the oven, resulting in baking 10­20% faster than traditional baking.
Know Your Convect Bake Mode When cooking an oven meal with several different types
of foods, be sure to select recipes that require similar temperatures. Cookware should sit in the oven with at least 2″ (5.1 cm) of space between the cookware and the sides of the oven. If the oven door is opened during convection baking, the fans turn off immediately when the door is opened and turn on immediately when the door is closed. Convection, bake, and broil elements will turn off approximately 30 seconds after the door is opened. They will turn on again approximately 30 seconds after the door is closed. Check food at shortest recommended package or recipe time. Allow more time for baking when using multiple racks. Use cookie sheets with no sides to allow air to move freely around the food.
AUTO CONVECT CONVERSION
Convection modes use additional elements and fans to distribute temperatures evenly throughout the cavity. As a result, baking temperatures and/or times may differ from traditional recipes and packaged goods instructions. Auto Convect Conversion automatically reduces the standard recipe time and temperature for convection cooking. NOTE: Available in the KitchenAidTM app.

USING YOUR OVEN

CONVECT ROAST

Convect roast can be used for roasting meats, poultry and vegetables. During convect roast, the broil, convect, and bake elements will cycle on and off in intervals to maintain oven temperature, while the fan circulates the hot air. It is not necessary to reduce oven temperature when using the Convect Roast mode.

SELF-CLEANING THE OVEN
WARNING

CARE AND CLEANING 2. Remove any foil from oven.

Burn Hazard Do not touch the oven during the Self-Cleaning cycle. Keep children away from oven during Self-Cleaning cycle. Failure to follow these instructions can result in burns.

Foil may burn or melt, damaging the oven.
3. Hand clean.

IMPORTANT: The health of some birds is extremely sensitive to the fumes
given off during the Self-Cleaning cycle. Exposure to the fumes may result in death to certain birds. Always move birds to another closed and well- ventilated room. Self-clean the oven before it becomes heavily soiled. Heavy soil results in longer cleaning and more smoke. Remove broiler pan, grid, cookware, and bakeware and, the meat probe from the oven. Keep the kitchen well-ventilated during the Self-Cleaning cycle to help get rid of heat, odors, and smoke. Do not block the oven vent(s) during the Self-Cleaning cycle. Air must be able to move freely. See “Oven Vent” in the “Know Your Oven” section. Do not clean, rub, damage, or move the oven door gasket. The door gasket is essential for a good seal.
To Prepare Oven:
1. Empty out oven and remove racks.

With a damp cloth, hand clean the inside door edge and 1½” (3.8 cm) of the area around the inside oven cavity frame. Be certain not to move or bend the gasket. This area does not get hot enough during self-cleaning to remove soil. Do not let water, cleaners, etc., enter the slots on the door frame.
4. Wipe out loose soil.
Wiping out soil reduces smoke and avoids damage. At high temperatures, foods react with porcelain. Staining, etching, pitting, or faint white spots can result. This will not affect cooking performance.
To Prepare Cooktop:
5. Remove plastic items.

Remove broiler pan, grid, cookware and bakeware, and the meat probe from the oven. IMPORTANT: Remove racks before the Self-Cleaning cycle to avoid discoloring and difficulty sliding.

Plastic items may melt.

27

CARE AND CLEANING

How the Cycle Works
IMPORTANT: The heating and cooling of porcelain on steel in the oven
may result in discoloring, loss of gloss, hairline cracks, and popping sounds. The Self-Cleaning cycle uses very high temperatures, burning soil to a powdery ash. Heavy soil accumulations may require multiple cleaning cycles. The oven is preset for a 3 hour 30 minute Self-Cleaning cycle. The oven will cool for an additional 30 minutes after cleaning is completed.
To Use Self-Clean:
Turn the Mode and Temperature Knobs to the Clean position. The knob indicator lights will illuminate to show that a selection has been made. The Start button indicator light will blink to prompt for action. Press the Start button to begin the cleaning cycle. The door(s) will lock. NOTE: The oven will cool for an additional 30 minutes after cleaning is completed.
To Start Self-Clean:
1. Turn the Mode Knob to the Clean position. 2. Turn the Temperature Knob to the Clean position. 3. Press the Start Button.
NOTE: All operations must be completed within 30 seconds or the unit will return to Idle Mode.
REMEMBER: When range is in use or during the SelfCleaning cycle, the entire cooktop area may become hot.

To Stop Self-Clean Any Time:
Move the Temperature Knob to OFF position to stop self-clean. If the oven temperature is too high, the door will remain locked. It will not unlock until the oven cools.
Once the oven has completely cooled:
Remove ash with a damp cloth. If soil remains after wiping, that means the length of the Self-
Cleaning cycle was not long enough for the amount of soil in the oven. Repeat the Self-Cleaning cycle if desired or the soil will be removed during the next Self-Cleaning cycle. To avoid breaking the glass, do not apply a cool damp cloth to the inner door glass before it has completely cooled. The oven lights will not light during the Self-Cleaning cycle. On 48″ (121.9 cm) ranges, only one oven can self-clean at a time. If one oven is self-cleaning, the other oven cannot be set or turned on. NOTE: The oven has a dual speed cooling fan motor. During selfcleaning, the fan(s) will operate at their highest speed to increase airflow to better exhaust the hotter air through the oven vent(s). An increase of noise may be noticeable during and after the SelfCleaning cycle until the oven cools.

28

CARE AND CLEANING

OVEN LIGHTS
The oven lights are 120 V, 25 W maximum halogen bulbs. They will come on when the oven door is opened.
To Replace:
Before replacing the bulb, make sure the oven is OFF and cool. Disconnect power.
1. Remove glass light cover.

3. Replace bulb.
Use a tissue or wear cotton gloves to handle the bulb. To avoid damage or decreasing the life of the new bulb, do not touch bulb with bare fingers.
4. Replace bulb cover.

The cookware is not the proper size. The proper cookware is not being used. The control knob is not set to the proper heat level. The range is not level. The electronic oven control is not set correctly. A Delay Start has been set via the App. On some models, the Sabbath Mode is set.
The oven door is open. The function has not been entered. A second self- cleaning cycle is run in the same cavity within 12 hours. On 48″ (121.9 cm) ranges, one oven is self-cleaning.

Make sure cap is properly aligned with burner. If sparking continues, discontinue use of the surface burner and contact a service technician. Use cookware about the same size as the surface cooking area or surface burner. Cookware should not extend more than 1/2″ (1.3 cm) outside the cooking area. Use medium-to-heavy cookware made of the material that cooks food the way you want. The best cookware should have a flat bottom, straight sides, and a well- fitting lid. Set the Cooktop Control to H or L, depending upon the type of cooking you want to do. The range must be level for the griddle to operate properly. See the Installation Instructions for leveling instructions. Make sure you have followed the instructions for the function you want to perform. This will cause the oven to start at a later time.
This mode allows oven operation in keeping with the Jewish Sabbath. See Sabbath Mode section for disabling. It is normal for the fan to automatically run while the oven is in use or for some time after the oven is shut off to cool the electronic control. Close the oven door all the way. Make sure you have properly followed the Self-Cleaning cycle instructions. Allow more than 12 hours between self-cleaning cycles.
When one oven is self-cleaning, the other oven cannot be set to self-clean.

IF YOU EXPERIENCE Oven cooking results not what expected.

POSSIBLE CAUSES The set temperature did not perform as expected. The oven was not preheated.
The proper bakeware is not being used. The racks are not positioned properly. There is not proper air circulation around bakeware. The batter is not evenly distributed in the pan. The proper length of time is not being used. The oven door has been opened while cooking. Baked items are too brown on the top or bottom. Pie crust edges are browning early. Racks are difficult to install in adjacent positions. Soiled broil element cover drops debris on baking dishes.

SOLUTION Double-check the recipe in a reliable cookbook.
If the proper steps are followed when setting the desired function, the oven will preheat before cooking. Make sure the bakeware used is appropriate for the food being cooked. Place racks so there is adequate space above each food item.
Allow 2″ (5.0 cm) of space around bakeware and oven walls.
Make sure your unit and racks are level, and check that batter is level in the pan. Adjust cooking time.
Oven peeking releases oven heat and can result in longer cooking times. Move rack to a lower location to reduce top browning or to a higher location to reduce bottom browning in the oven. Use aluminum foil to cover the edge of the crust and/or reduce baking temperature. Install the bottom rack first and then install the rack above it.
Wash cover with soapy water or run Self-Clean cycle to remove build-up.
