Using Your Range

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.

The flame should be adjusted so it does not extend beyond the edge of the pan.

NOTE : Visually check that the burner has lit. If the burner does not ignite, listen for a clicking sound.

If you do not hear the igniter click, turn the burner off. Check for a tripped circuit breaker or blown household fuse. Check that the control knob is pressed completely down on the valve shaft. If the spark igniter still does not operate, call a trained repair specialist.

To Set:

Push in and turn knob counterclockwise to (LITE). All surface burners will click. Only the burner with the control knob turned to (LITE) will produce a flame.
Turn knob to anywhere between High and Low.

Electric igniters automatically light the surface burners when control knobs are turned to (LITE). Before setting a control knob, place filled cookware on the grate. Do not operate a burner using empty cookware or without cookware on the grate.

POWER FAILURE
In case of prolonged power failure, the surface burners can be lit manually. Hold a lit match near a burner, and then turn knob counterclockwise to (LITE). After burner lights, turn knob to setting.

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 entire oven rack with foil because air must be able to move freely.
IMPORTANT : Do not allow aluminum foil and meat probes to contact heating elements.

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.

Racks

Position racks before turning on the oven.
Do not position racks with bakeware on them.
Make sure racks are level.

To move a rack, pull it out to the stop position, raise the front edge, and then lift it out. Use the following illustrations as a guide for positioning racks.

BAKING COOKIES AND LAYER CAKES ON TWO RACKS

Baking Layer Cakes
For best results when baking cakes on two racks, use the Bake function, a flat rack in rack position 4, and a flat rack in rack position 2. Place the cakes on the racks as shown. Keep at least 3″ (7.6 cm) of space between the front of the racks and the front cakes.
Baking Cookies on Two Racks
For best results when baking cookies on two racks, use the Convect Bake function and place flat racks in positions 2 and 5.

OVEN VENT
The oven vent releases hot air and moisture from the oven, and should not be blocked or covered. Blocking or covering the oven 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.

OVEN LIGHT
The oven light is a 40 W halogen bulb. Before replacing, make sure the oven and cooktop are cool and the control knobs are in the Off position.

To Replace:

Disconnect power.
Turn the glass bulb cover in the back of the oven counterclockwise to remove.
Remove bulb from socket.
Replace bulb, using tissue or wearing cotton gloves to handle bulb. To avoid damage to or decreasing the life of the new bulb, do not touch bulb with bare fingers.
Replace bulb cover by turning clockwise.
Reconnect power.

IMPORTANT : Do not use lamps rated higher than 40 W.

WI-FI CONNECT (on some models)
Press and hold CONNECT while your router’s WPS indicator light is blinking to connect your range to your Wi-Fi network. See the Internet Connectivity Guide section in the Owner’s Manual for more detailed instructions.

FAQ

Q: What should I do if the burner does not ignite?
A: If the burner does not light, check for a clicking sound. If no click is heard, turn off the burner, inspect for issues like circuit breakers, and ensure proper knob positioning. If problems persist, contact a repair specialist.

Q: Can I cover the entire oven rack with foil for baking?
A: It is not recommended to cover the entire oven rack with foil as air circulation is crucial for proper baking. Only use foil sparingly and avoid contact with heating elements.
