Surface Burners
NOTE: Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air around the burner grate edges.
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.

NOTE: The oval burner base is permanently attached to the burner cap.
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.

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 “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. See the following illustration for burner positions.

5. Replace the burner cap, making sure it is properly aligned with the burner base. If burner caps are not properly positioned, surface burners will not light. The burner cap should not rock or wobble when properly aligned. IMPORTANT: The bottom of the small and medium caps are different. Do not put the wrong size burner cap on the burner base.

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.

Grates

The grates on this range cover the full width of the cooktop. The two grates may interlock (on some models), using the hook formed into one end of both grates. The flat end of one grate drops onto the hook on the other grate as shown in the following illustration. On some models, the two grates are identical and can be used on either the left or right side of the cooktop. Grates that are designed for use on only one side of the cooktop will have either “LEFT” or “RIGHT” embossed on the bottom side of the grate.
Griddle

To Use the Griddle:

1. Locate the griddle on the right side grate as shown. The locating feet on the bottom of the griddle will engage the grate tines to keep the griddle from sliding.
2. Before each use, brush on a thin layer of cooking oil to keep food from sticking. Cooking sprays may leave a sticky residue on the griddle that is hard to remove.
3. Preheat the griddle for 5 minutes. Preheating the griddle slowly will ensure even heat distribution and will avoid warping the griddle.
4. For preheating and cooking, set the front burner to the lowest heat setting and the rear burner to Medium-High heat for best performance.

NOTE: The griddle may also be used on the left side grate. For best results, the rear burner setting should be set to Medium-Low or Medium, and the front burner setting should be set to Low.
To Clean the Griddle:

1. Let the griddle cool, and then empty the drip tray.
2. See the “General Cleaning” section of your Owner’s Manual for cleaning instructions.
3. Store griddle in a cool dry place.

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 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 grates.
Cookware material is a factor in how quickly and evenly heat is transferred which affects cooking results.
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.

Suitable for all types of cooking.
Medium or heavy thickness is best for most cooking tasks.
May leave aluminum residues, which may be diminished if cleaned immediately after cooking.
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

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.

NOTE: The roll-out rack in the lower oven sits midway between adjacent rack positions. The roll-out rack should not be used in rack position 5.
Bakeware
To cook food evenly, hot air must be able to circulate. Allow 2″ (5.0 cm) of space around bakeware and oven walls. Use the following chart as a guide.

Roll-out Rack

The roll-out rack allows easy access to position and remove food in the oven. The roll-out rack should not be used in rack position 5.
Open position

Closed and Engaged Position

To Insert Roll-Out Rack

1. Angle rack assembly up, and then insert into the “V” cutout in the rack guides of the oven cavity.
2. Keep rack assembly lifted up at an angle, and then push in to bypass the lower “V” cutout.
3. Gently slide rack assembly into oven, bypassing the “V” cutouts.

To Remove Roll-Out Rack

1. Push the sliding shelf in completely so that it is in the closed and engaged position.

Do not clean the roll-out rack in the dishwasher. It may remove the rack’s lubricant and affect its ability to slide.
See the “General Cleaning” section in your Owner’s Manual for more information.

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.
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.
Steam Bake
The Steam Bake function works in conjunction with the steam rack to provide additional moisture during baking. The steam rack contains a water reservoir which heats up and releases steam into the oven cavity during the Steam Bake cycle. There are 3 preprogrammed food options to choose from: Breads, Desserts, and Fish as well as a Refresh/Reheat option.
For best performance, place the steam rack in the lowest available rack position in the cavity and pour 11/2 cups (350 mL) of water into the reservoir. Do not fill past the MAX level indicated on the reservoir.
After the Steam Bake cycle is complete, some water may remain in the reservoir. This is normal. Wait for the oven to cool and discard the water.

Broiling
Close the oven door while broiling. No preheating is necessary.
Position food on grid in a broiler pan, and then place it in the center of the oven rack.
NOTE: Odors and smoke are normal the first few times the oven is used or if the oven is heavily soiled.
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. 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. Please refer to the Quick Start Guide for contact information.

Lower Oven 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 the surfaces while sealing in moisture and yielding crustier breads.
During the convection cooking, the bake, broil and convection (true convection only) elements cycle on and off in intervals to maintain the oven temperature, while the fan circulates the hot air. 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. Position the racks according to the “Positioning Racks and Bakeware” section before starting convection cooking.
With convection cooking, most foods can be cooked at a lower temperature or for a shorter length of time. These adjustments can be made using the following chart or by using the EasyConvect™ Conversion feature on your range.

the food should be checked for doneness early.
CONVECT ROAST| Use standard recipe temperature. Cooking time may be reduced by 15 to 30% with Convect Roast so the food should be checked for doneness early.

BowTie True Convection with T.H.E.™™ Element
True convection adds an electric element around the convection fan to enhance the cooking performance. Use the following Convect Options chart as a guide.

casseroles, tarts, tortes
CONVECT BROIL| Thicker cuts or unevenly shaped pieces of meat, fish, or poultry
CONVECT ROAST| Whole chicken or turkey, vegetables, pork roasts, beef roasts

EasyConvect™ Conversion
Convection cooking temperatures and times can differ from those of standard cooking. Depending upon the selected category, EasyConvect™ Conversion automatically reduces the standard recipe temperature and/or time you input for convection cooking. Foods are grouped into 3 general categories. Choose the category most appropriate for the food to be cooked. Use the following chart as a guide.
