AquaLift® Self-Cleaning Technology

AquaLift® 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 AquaLift® 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 AquaLift® Self-Cleaning Technology, simply wipe out loose debris, pour water into the oven bottom, and run the AquaLift® Self-Cleaning cycle. When the cycle finishes in under 1 hour at a lower temperature than in traditional selfcleaning methods, just wipe out the remaining water and loose debris. See the “Clean Cycle” section for more detailed instructions. For additional information, frequently asked questions and videos on using AquaLift® 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.

Sealed Surface Burners

A. Burner cap
B. Burner base
C. Alignment pins
D. Igniter
E. Gas tube opening

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.

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.

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 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 oven and cooktop are cool. Do not use oven cleaners, bleach, or rust removers.

1. Remove the burner cap from the burner base and clean according to “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. Each round burner base is marked with a letter indicating the burner size. See the following illustration for burner positions.

AQUALift MGR8800FZ Freestanding Gas Range Control A5

A. Medium (Semi Rapid)
B. Large (Ultra Rapid)
C. Oval (OV)
D. Small (Auxiliary)
E. Large (Ultra Rapid)

5. Replace the burner cap, making sure the alignment pins are properly aligned with the burner cap.

A. Incorrect
B. Correct

6. Place the burner caps on the appropriate burner bases.

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 (Auxiliary) Medium cap (Semi Rapid)

Large cap (Ultra Rapid)

7. Turn on the burner. If the burner does not light, check cap alignment. If the burner still does not light, do not service the sealed 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/coils. 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 surfaces.

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.

Cookware	Characteristics
Aluminum

Heats quickly and evenly.
Suitable for all types of cooking.
Medium or heavy thickness is best for most cooking tasks.

Cast iron|

Heats slowly and evenly.
Good for browning and frying.
Maintains heat for slow cooking.

Ceramic or Ceramic glass|

Follow manufacturer’s instructions.
Heats slowly, but unevenly.
Ideal results on low to medium heat settings.

Copper|

Heats very quickly and evenly.
May leave copper residues, which may be diminished if cleaned immediately after cooking.

Earthenware/ Stoneware|

Follow manufacturer’s instructions.
Use on low heat settings.

Porcelain enamel-on steel or cast iron| See stainless steel or cast iron
Stainless steel|

Heats quickly, but unevenly.
A core or base of aluminum or copper on stainless steel provides even heating.

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

The normal operation of the range will include several noises that may be heard each time the Bake or Broil burners ignite during the cooking cycle:

Gas valves may make a “popping” sound when opening or closing.
Igniters will “click” several times until a flame is sensed.
A “poof” sound is heard when a bake or broil burner ignites.

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 wellventilated room.

NOTE: On some models: The convection fan will shut off when the oven door is opened. If the oven door remains open for too long, the heating elements will shut off until the oven door is closed. All timers, including any active Cook Time or Timed Cook functions, will continue to count down.

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.

AQUALift MGR8800FZ Freestanding Gas Range Control A13

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: Use rack positions 2 and 5 for regular or convection baking.

Three-rack (convection only): Use rack positions 2, 4 and 6.

Baking and Roasting

Precision Cooking™ System – Precise Bake

The Precise Bake system electronically regulates the oven heat levels during preheat and bake to maintain a precise temperature range for optimal cooking results. The bake burner cycles on and off in intervals. On convection range models, the fan may run while preheating and may be cycled on and off for short intervals during preheating to provide the best results. This feature is automatically activated when the oven is in use.

The convection fan will not be on during the first 5 minutes of the cycle.

Before baking and roasting, position racks according to “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.

Preheating

When Start is pressed, the oven will begin preheating. Once 100ºF (38ºC) is reached, the display temperature will increase as the actual temperature of the oven increases. When the preheat temperature is reached, a tone will sound, and the selected temperature will appear on the display. The time necessary to preheat the oven to 350°F (177°C) is approximately 10 to 15 minutes, depending on the model.

Power Preheat

Power Preheat can be used to shorten the preheating time. Only one standard flat rack should be in the oven during Power Preheat. Extra racks should be removed prior to starting Power Preheat. Press POWER PREHEATand follow the oven control prompts, or, if preheating has already started, simply press POWER PREHEAT. The preheating cycle should be completed before placing food in the oven and should be used only for onerack baking. When the power preheat cycle is complete, the oven starts a normal Bake cycle.

IMPORTANT: Power Preheat should be used only for one-rack baking.

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, the slower the cooking. Thicker cuts and unevenly shaped pieces of meat, fish, and poultry may cook better at lower broil settings. Use racks 6 or 7 for broiling. Refer to the “Positioning Racks and Bakeware” section for more information.

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.

NOTE: Odors and smoke are normal the first few times the oven is used or if the oven is heavily soiled.

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.

IMPORTANT: With convection cooking, most foods can be cooked at a lower temperature or at a shorter time. This range automatically reduces the set oven temperature by 25°F (15°C) for convection cooking.

During convection cooking, the bake and broil burners and convection element cycle on and off in intervals to maintain the oven temperature, while the fan circulates the hot air.

NOTE: The convection fan will turn on approximately 5 minutes into any convection cycle.

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.

NOTE: The oven door must be closed for convection broiling.

EvenAir™ True Convection
When convection baking, broiling or roasting, enter your normal baking temperature. The control will automatically reduce the set oven temperature by 25°F (15°C).

Convect Options
Convect Bake – Multiple-rack baking or cookies, biscuits, breads, casseroles, tarts, tortes, cakes.

Convect Broil – Thicker cuts or unevenly shaped pieces of meat, fish or poultry.

Convect Roast – Whole chicken or turkey, vegetables, pork roasts, beef roasts.

Warming Drawer (on some models)

The Warming Drawer is ideal for keeping hot cooked foods at serving temperature. It may also be used for warming breads and pastries.

Different types of food may be placed in the warming drawer at the same time. For best results, do not hold foods longer than 1 hour. For smaller quantities, pizza, or heat-sensitive foods, such as eggs, do not hold longer than 30 minutes.

Food must be at serving temperature before being placed in the warming drawer. Breads, pastries, and fruit pies may be heated from room temperature.

Remove food from plastic bags and place in oven-safe container. Cover foods with a lid or aluminum foil.

Do not cover with plastic wrap.

Empty serving dishes and ovenproof dishes can be heated while the warming drawer is preheating. Check the dish manufacturer’s recommendations before warming the cookware.

Before using the warming drawer, wash the bottom of the drawer with soap and water. See “General Cleaning” section in your Owner’s Manual.
