Failure to do so could result in death or fire.
To use press power, touch respective display
area to turn on the desired heating element.
Select a heat setting from “L” through “H” by
touching/sliding on the power slider.
REMEMBER: When range is in use, the entire cooktop area may become hot.
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 position a rack, pull it out to the stop position, raise the front edge,
and then lift out. Use the following illustration as a guide.
For hamburger patties to have a well-seared exterior and a rare interior, use a flat rack in rack position 7. Side 1
should cook for approximately 2 1 /
2
to 3 1 /
2
minutes. Side 2 should cook for approximately 4 to 5 minutes. Expect
a moderate degree of smoke when broiling.
BAKING COOKIES AND LAYER CAKES ON 2 RACKS
Baking Layer Cakes
For best results when baking cakes on 2 racks, use the Bake
function, a flat rack in rack position 3, and a roll-out rack in rack
position 5. 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
For best results when baking cookies on 2 racks, use the
Convection Bake function, a flat rack in rack position 3, and a roll-out
rack in rack position 5.
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.
Care must be taken to prevent aluminum foil and meat probes from contacting heating elements.
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.
A. 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:
1.
Disconnect power.
2. Turn the glass bulb cover in the back of the oven counterclockwise to remove.
3. Remove bulb from socket.
4. 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.
5. Replace bulb cover by turning clockwise.
6. Reconnect power.
IMPORTANT: Do not use lamps rated higher than 40 W.
SABBATH MODE:
The Sabbath Mode sets the oven to remain on in a bake setting until disabled.

Induction Ready Cookware
POTS AND PANS
NO OK
Only use pots and pans made from ferromagnetic
material which are suitable for use with induction
cooktop:
� Enameled steel.
� Cast iron
� Stainless steel designed for induction cooktops.
To determine whether a pot is suitable, a magnet may be used to check whether pots are magnetic.
The quality and the structure of the pot base can alter cooking performance. Some indications for the diameter of
the base do not correspond to the actual diameter of the ferromagnetic surface.
Some pots and pans have only a part of the bottom in ferromagnetic material, with parts in another material that is
not suitable for induction cooking. These areas may heat up at different levels or with lower temperatures. In
certain cases, where the bottom is made mainly of non-ferromagnetic materials, the cooktop might not recognize
the pan and therefore not switch on the cooking zone.
To ensure optimum efficiency, always use pots and pans with a flat bottom that distributes the heat evenly. If the
bottom is uneven, this will affect power and heat conduction
Empty pots or pots with a thin base
Do not use empty pots or pans when the cooktop is on.
Proper size of pot/pan base for the different cooking areas
To ensure that the cooktop functions properly, use pots of a suitable minimum diameter.
Always use the cooking zone that best corresponds to the minimum diameter of the bottom of the pot.
Place the pot making sure it is well centered on the cooking zone in use. Use cookware about the same size as
the surface cooking area. Cookware should not extend more than 1/2" (1.3 cm) outside the area.
