ALL APPLIANCES

1. Proper installation. Be sure your appliance is properly installed and grounded by a qualified technician.
2. Never Use Your Appliance for Warming or Heating the Room.
3. Do not leave children alone. Children should not be alone or unattended in the area where the appliance is in use. They should never be allowed to sit or stand on any part of the appliance.
4. Wear proper apparel. Loose fitting or hanging garments should never be worn while using appliance.
5. User Servicing—Do not repair or replace any part of the appliance unless specifically recommended in the manual. All other servicing should be referred to a qualified technician.
6. Storage in or on appliance. Flammable materials should not be stored in an oven or near surface units.
7. Do not use water on grease fires. Smother fire or flame, or use dry chemical or foam-type extinguisher.
8. Use only dry potholders. Moist or damp potholders on hot surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do not let potholder touch elements. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth.

VENTILATION HOODS

1. Clean ventilation hoods frequently. Grease should not be allowed to accumulate on hood or filter.
2. When flaming foods, turn fan on.

SURFACE COOKING UNITS

1. Use proper pan size. This appliance is equipped with one or more surface units of different size. Select utensils having flat bottoms large enough to cover the surface unit heating element. The use of undersized utensils will expose a portion of the heating element to direct contact and may result in ignition of clothing. Use of oversized utensils concentrates heat on cooking surface and can cause damage to range. Proper relationship of utensil to burner improves efficiency.
2. Never leave surface units unattended. Boilover causes smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite.
3. Make sure reflector pans or drip bowls are in place. Absence of these pans or bowls during cooking may subject wiring or components underneath to damage.
4. Protective liners. Do not use aluminum foil to line drip bowls. Improper installation of these liners may result in a risk of electrical shock, or fire.
5. Glazed cooking utensils—Only certain types of glass, ceramic, earthware, or other glazed utensils are suitable for rangetop service without breaking due to sudden change in temperature.
6. Utensil handles should be turned inward and not extend over adjacent surface units. To reduce the risk of burns, ignition of flammable materials, and spillage due to unintentional contact with the utensil, the handle of a utensil should be positioned so that it is turned inward, and does not extend over adjacent surface units.
7. Do not soak removable heating elements. Heating elements should never be immersed in water.

GLASS/CERAMIC COOKING SURFACES

1. Do not cook on broken cooktop. If cooktop should break, cleaning solutions and spillovers may penetrate the broken cooktop and create a risk of electrical shock. Contact a qualified technician immediately.
2. Clean cooktop with caution. If a wet sponge or cloth is used to wipe spills on a hot cooking area, be careful to avoid a steam burn. Some cleaners can produce noxious fumes if applied to a hot surface.

OVENS

1. Use care when opening door. Let hot air or steam escape before removing or replacing food.
2. Do not heat unopened food containers. Build-up of pressure may cause container to burst and result in injury.
3. Keep oven vent ducts unobstructed.
4. Placement of oven racks. Always place oven racks in desired location while oven is cool. If rack is removed while oven is hot, do not let potholder contact hot heating element in oven.
5. Protective liners. Do not use aluminum foil to line oven cavity or racks. Improper installation of these liners may result in a risk of electrical shock, or fire.

SELF-CLEANING OVENS

1. Do not clean door gasket. The door gasket is essential for a good seal. Care should be taken not to rub, damage, or move the gasket.
2. 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 liner.
3. Clean only parts listed in manual.
4. Before self-cleaning the oven, remove broiler pan, oven racks, and other utensils.
5. Remove all items from rangetop and backguard.

In Case of Fire
Fires can occur as a result of over cooking or excessive grease. Though a fire is unlikely, if one occurs, proceed as follows:

Surface Element Fire

1. Smother the fire with a nonflammable lid or baking soda, or use a Class ABC or BC extinguisher. Not water. Not salt. Not flour.
2. As soon as it is safe to do so, turn the surface controls to OFF. Turn off power at main circuit breaker or fuse box.

Oven Fires

1. If you see smoke from your oven, do not open oven.
2. Turn oven control to OFF.
3. As an added precaution, turn off power at main circuit breaker or fuse box.
4. Turn on vent to remove smoke.
5. Allow food or grease to burn itself out in oven.

Preparing to Cook with Smoothtop Elements (Some Models)
WARNING
To avoid risk of serious personal injury never cook on a broken smoothtop cooking surface. Spillovers or cleaners can penetrate surface and create a risk of electrical shock. If smoothtop cooking surface breaks, discontinue use and notify an authorized servicer immediately.

• Before cooking on smoothtop, wipe top with cleaner conditioner. Conditioning smoothtop before use makes marks and stains easier to remove.
• Use heavy-gauge metal cookware not including cast iron.
• Bottom of cookware must be flat. Cookware that is warped or slightly curved on the bottom heats slowly and may not boil water. Cookware with an aluminum disk bottom makes excellent contact with cooking surface. See Utensils section for more information.
• Smoothtop cooking surface is not “scratch proof”. Surface is highly scratch and impact resistant. With recommended cooking utensils and proper care, it will continue looking good through years of use.
• Do not use glass, glass-ceramic, or enamel-porcelain cookware. Small imperfections on bottom of such cookware can scratch smoothtop surface.

Cooking with Surface Elements
WARNING
To avoid risk of serious personal injury, property damage, or fire, do not leave surface elements unattended while in operation. Grease and spillovers can ignite causing a fire.

1. Push in and turn surface element control to desired setting.
2. Smoothtop elements will cycle on and off to maintain desired heat setting.
3. Some ranges have two indicator lights, one for elements on right side and one for elements on left side of range. When either front or rear element is on, corresponding indicator light glows.
4. Some ranges have one indicator under clock. When any element is on, indicator light glows.
5. Smoothtop ranges can have one or two indicator lights. After the surface controls are turned off, the appropriate surface indicator light will continue to glow until the surface elements have cooled.
6. The length of time each light remains on will vary. Do not expect the lights for two different heating areas to go off at the same time even if the elements were turned off simultaneously.
7. When finished cooking, turn control to OFF position.

Surface Element Settings

• LO —Use to prepare food at less than boiling temperatures or to simmer.
• MED—Use to maintain boiling of larger amounts of food, low temperature frying and to maintain correct pressure in a pressure cooker.
• HI—Use to bring food to boiling temperatures. When food is boiling temperature setting should be reduced to LO through MED.

Utensils

Use proper pan size. Do not use a pan that has a bottom smaller than element. Do not use utensils that overhang element by more than 1 inch.

• Use care when using glazed cooking utensils. Some glass, earthenware, or other glazed utensils break due to sudden temperature changes. Do not use glazed utensils on smoothtop ranges.
• Select utensils without broken or loose handles. Handles should not be heavy enough to tilt pan.
• Do not use a wok with a ring stand. Use flat bottom wok.

Utensil Material Characteristic

Type| Temperature Response| Uses
Aluminum| Heats and Cools Quickly| Frying, Braising, Roasting
Cast Iron| Heats and Cools Slowly| Low Heat Cooking, Frying
Copper Tin Lined| Heats and Cools Quickly| Gourmet Cooking, Wine Sauces, Egg Dishes
Enamelware| Depends on Base Metal| Low Heat Cooking
Ceramic (Glass)| Heats and Cools Slowly| Low Heat Cooking
Stainless Steel| Heats and Cools at Moderate Rate| Soups, Sauces, Vegetables, General Cooking

For best cooking results, use a pan with a flat bottom. Determine if pan has a flat bottom.

1. Rotate a ruler along bottom of pan. If pan is not flat, gaps between bottom of pan and edge of ruler occur.
2. A small groove or mark on a pan does not effect cooking times. However, if a pan has a gap, formed rings, or an uneven bottom, it does not cook efficiently and in some cases may not boil liquid.

| To Remove

Use light application of smoothtop cleaner conditioner with clean damp paper towel.

---|---|---|---
Blackened, burned-on spots| Spatters or spillovers landing on a hot cooking area or accidental melting of plastic like a bread bag.| Wipe all spillovers when it is safe to touch cooking surface. Do not place plastic items on warm cooking area.|

• Clean area with smoothtop cleaner conditioner with clean damp paper towel, nonabrasive nylon pad, or scouring brush.
• If spot is not removed, allow cooktop to cool and carefully scrape area with a safety scraper held at a 30 degree angle.

Fine brown gray lines or fine scratches or abrasions which have collected soil| Course particles, like salt, become embedded in top if trapped under pan. Using abrasive cleaning materials. Scratches from rough ceramic, glass or ceramic- coated cookware.| Wipe bottom of cookware before cooking. Clean top daily with smoothtop cleaner conditioner with clean damp paper towel. Do not use ceramic or ceramic-coated cookware.| Fine scratches are not removable but can be minimized by daily use of smoothtop cleaner conditioner.
Smearing or streaking| Using too much smoothtop cleaner conditioner or using a soiled dish cloth.| Use small amounts of smoothtop cleaner conditioner. Rinse area thoroughly before drying. Use only clean damp paper towel, nonabrasive nylon pad, or scouring brush.|
Metal or silver/gray marks| Sliding or scraping metal utensils across top.| Do not slide metal objects across top.| Remove marks before top is used again. After top cools, clean marks with smoothtop cleaner conditioner with clean damp paper towel, nonabrasive nylon pad, or scouring brush. Rinse thoroughly and dry.
