USING YOUR APPLIANCE: Cookware for Gas Cooktop

Cookware for Gas Cooktop

The following information will help you choose cookware which will give good performance on gas cooktops.

RECOMMENDED
Aluminum:
Medium-weight cookware is recommended because it heats quickly and evenly. Most foods brown evenly in DQDOXPLQXPVNLOOHW8VHVDXFHSDQVZLWKWLJKWILWWLQJOLGV when cooking with minimum amounts of water.
Stainless Steel:
This metal alone has poor heating properties and is usually combined with copper, aluminum or other metals for improved heat distribution. Combination metal skillets usually work satisfactorily if they are used with medium heat or as the manufacturer recommends.
Cast Iron:
If heated slowly, most skillets will give satisfactory results.

NOT RECOMMENDED
Enamelware:
8QGHUVRPHFRQGLWLRQVWKHHQDPHORIVRPHFRRNZDUH may melt. Follow the cookware manufacturer’s recommendations for cooking methods.
Glass:
There are two types of glass cookware – those for oven use only and those for top-of-range cooking (saucepans, coffee and teapots). Glass conducts heat very slowly.
Heatproof Glass Ceramic:
Can be used for either surface or oven cooking. It conducts heat very slowly and cools very slowly. Check the cookware manufacturer’s directions to be sure it can be used on gas ranges.

USING YOUR APPLIANCE: Oven Cooking Modes

Oven Cooking Modes

Your new oven has a variety of cooking modes to help you get the best results. These modes are described below. Refer to the Cooking Guide section for recommended rack positions and other tips for using these modes Remember, your new oven may perform differently than the oven it is replacing.
Place racks in the desired position(s) prior to starting the oven. For some cooking modes, such as Bake, the oven will preheat and a tone will sound when the oven is ready for cooking. Some cooking modes do not require preheating. To reduce preheating times, remove unused racks and avoid opening the oven door until the preheat tone sounds.
While in use, oven heaters will cycle on and off as needed to maintain appropriate cooking conditions. Avoid frequently opening the oven door, as this can impact cooking times and performance.
NOTE (on some models):: A cooling fan will turn on to cool internal parts when the oven is used. This is normal, and the fan may continue to run after the oven is turned off.

Bake

Crisp

The Bake mode is intended for baking and roasting on a single rack. To use this mode, press the Bake pad and use the number pads to set the desired temperature, then press Start.
Preheating is generally recommended when using this mode, especially for preparing baked goods such as cakes, cookies, and pastries.
Broil Modes
0RQLWRUIRRGFORVHOZKLOHEURLOLQJ8VHFDXWLRQZKHQ broiling on upper rack positions as placing food closer to the broil element increases smoking, spattering, and fats igniting. For best performance center food below the broil heating element. Try broiling foods that you would normally grill. Adjust rack positions to adjust the intensity of the heat to the food. Always use the Broil mode with the oven door closed.
Broil High
Broil High uses intense heat from the upper element to VHDUIRRGV8VH%URLO+LJKIRUWKLQQHUFXWVRIPHDWDQGRU when you would like to have a seared surface and less done interior. To use this mode press the Broil pad once and then press Start.

The Crisp mode is a special mode that is designed to produce foods with a crispier exterior than traditional oven cooking. The Crisp mode is intended for single rack cooking only. To use this mode, press the Crisp pad and use the number pads to set the desired temperature, then press Start.
The temperature can be set between 300ºF and 500ºF. There is a 2 minute preheat for this mode. Follow recipe or package traditional bake guidelines for set temperature and cook times. Adjust cook time to achieve your desired crispness. Additional guidelines for using this mode can be found in the Crisp Cooking Guide.
Warm
Warm mode is designed to keep hot foods hot. Do not use warm to heat cold food, other than crisping crackers, chips, or dry cereal. Cover foods that need to remain moist and do not cover foods that should be crisp. It is also recommended that food should not be kept warm for more than two hours. To use this mode, press the Warm pad, then press Start.
Preheating is not necessary for this mode.

It is not necessary to preheat when using this mode.

USING YOUR APPLIANCE: Oven Cooking Modes

Oven Cookware
The material, finish, and size of cookware affect baking performance. Dark, coated and dull pans absorb heat more readily than light, shiny pans. Pans that absorb heat more readily can result in a browner, crisper and thicker crust. If using dark and coated cookware check food earlier than the minimum cook time. If undesirable results are obtained with this type of cookware consider reducing oven temperature by 25º F next time.
· Shiny pans can produce more evenly cooked baked goods such as cakes and cookies.
· Glass and ceramic pans heat slowly but retain heat well. These types of pans work well for dishes such as pies and custards.

· Air insulated pans heat slowly and can reduce bottom browning.
· Stoneware heats slowly and retains heat well. It is recommended to preheat this type of cookware if possible. Additional cook time may be required.
· Cookware used in broil modes and air fry must be broil-safe.

USING YOUR APPLIANCE: Crisp Cooking Guide

Crisp Cooking Guide

Crisp mode is a special cooking mode that is designed to produce foods with a crispier exterior than traditional oven cooking. Select Crisp, then input the desired set temperature and press Start. The temperature can be set between 300°F and 500°F.
Crisp Cookware Guidelines
· Only use broil safe cookware when using Crisp mode.
· A dark sheet pan is recommended. A dark pan promotes better browning and crisping.
· Oven baking baskets and baking grids can also be used. A sheet pan should be placed on the rack below the foods to catch any drippings when using a baking basket.

General Tips for Crisp Mode
· The Crisp mode is designed for cooking on a single rack.
· The Crisp mode has a 2 minute preheat
5DFN SRVLWLRQ LV UHFRPPHQGHG IRU PRVW IRRGV 8VH rack position 3 for thicker foods.
· For frozen packaged foods, use traditional oven cooking instructions for set temperature and expected cook time. Adjust the cook time to achieve your desired crispness.
· Foods may cook faster than expected if the oven is already hot when food is placed in the oven.
· When crisping foods with sauce, it is recommended to apply the sauce at the end of cooking.

· If foods are browning too quickly, try a lower rack position or lower oven set temperature.

· It is not necessary to flip or stir food during cooking

USING YOUR APPLIANCE: Aluminum Foil / 2YHQ5DFNV2YHQ$LU9HQWV

Aluminum Foil and Oven Liners

CAUTION Do not use any type of foil or oven liner to cover the oven bottom. These items can trap heat
or melt, resulting in damage to the product and risk of shock, smoke or fire. Damage from improper use of these items is not covered by the product warranty.
Foil may be used to catch spills by placing a sheet on a lower rack, several inches below the food. Do not use more IRLOWKDQQHFHVVDUDQGQHYHUHQWLUHOFRYHUDQRYHQUDFNZLWKDOXPLQXPIRLO.HHSIRLODWOHDVW´IURPRYHQZDOOV to prevent poor heat circulation.

Oven Racks

Rack Positions
Your oven has 6 rack positions. Recommended rack positions for various types of foods are provided in the Cooking Guide. Adjusting rack position is one way to impact cooking results. For example, if you would prefer darker tops on cakes, muffins, or cookies, try moving food one rack position higher. If you find foods are too brown on top try moving them down next time.
When baking with multiple pans and on multiple racks, ensure there is at least 1½” between pans to allow sufficient space for air to flow. This may improve cooking evenness. To avoid possible burns, place the racks in the desired position before you turn the oven on.

Flat Racks
When placing and removing cookware, pull the rack out to the bump (stop position) on the rack support. To remove a rack, pull it toward you until it reaches the stop position, tilt up the front of the rack and pull it out. To replace a rack, place the curved end of the rack onto the rack supports. Tilt up the front of the rack and push the rack in until it stops. Then lay the rack flat and push it in until it is all the way into the oven.
Racks may become difficult to slide, especially after a self-clean cycle. To improve sliding conditions, use a soft cloth or paper towel to rub vegetable oil on the left and right edges of the racks and/or rack supports. Do not use other cooking oils like peanut oil, Pam® or other lubricant sprays, since this can cause a discoloring or a rust like color residue on the racks and cavity sides.
NOTE: Remove unused racks when using the oven for faster preheat, improved efficiency and optimal cooking performance. See the Accessories section for instructions on ordering additional racks.

Oven Air Vents
Never block the vents (air openings) of the range. They provide the air for the inlet and outlet that are necessary for the range to keep cool and operate properly. Air openings are located at the rear of the cooktop.

CARE AND CLEANING

CARE AND CLEANING: Cooktop Surfaces – Gas

Cooktop Surfaces – Gas

Normal, Daily Use Cleaning
Do not use oven cleaners, abrasive cleansers, strong liquid cleansers, steel wool, plastic scouring pads, or cleaning powders on the interior or exterior of the oven. Clean with a mild soap and water or a 50/50 solution of vinegar and water. Rinse with clean water and dry with a soft cloth. When cleaning surfaces, make sure that they are at room temperature.

Spillage of marinades, fruit juices, tomato sauces and basting liquids containing acids may cause discoloration and should be wiped up as soon as hot surfaces cool, then clean and rinse.

Removal of Surface Burners for Cleaning
Turn all controls OFF. Allow cooktop to cool before removing grates and burner parts. When removing the burner caps and heads, remember their size and location. Replace them in the same location after cleaning.
CAUTION Do not attempt to remove oval burner
caps from burner heads.

CARE AND CLEANING: Exterior Surfaces

Exterior Surfaces
Be sure all controls are off and all surfaces are cool before cleaning any part of the range.
WARNING If your range is removed for cleaning, servicing or any reason, be sure the anti-
tip device is reengaged properly when the range is replaced. Failure to take this precaution could result in tipping of the range and can result in death or serious burns to children or adults.
NOTE: DO NOT allow stainless steel cleaner to come in contact with any plastic parts such as the control knobs or control panel. If unintentional contact of cleaners with plastic parts does occur, clean plastic part with a sponge and mild detergent mixed with warm water.

Control Knobs
The control knobs may be removed for easier cleaning. Make sure the knobs are in the OFF positions and pull them straight off the stems for cleaning. The knobs can be cleaned in a dishwasher or they may also be washed

with soap and water. Make sure the inside of the knobs are dry before replacing. Replace the knobs in the OFF position to ensure proper placement.

Control Panel
It’s a good idea to wipe the control panel after each use. Clean with mild soap and water or vinegar and water, rinse with clean water and polish dry with a soft cloth. Do not use abrasive cleansers, strong liquid cleansers, plastic scouring pads or oven cleaners on the control panel – they will damage the finish.

If desired, the touch pads may be deactivated before cleaning. To lock or unlock the controls, press and hold the Lock Control pad for three seconds.

Oven Exterior Surfaces
Clean with a mild soap and water or a 50/50 solution of vinegar and water. Rinse with clean water and dry with a soft cloth. When cleaning surfaces, make sure that they are at room temperature. Spillage of marinades, fruit juices, tomato sauces and basting liquids containing acids may cause discoloration and should be wiped up

as soon as hot surfaces cool, then clean and rinse. For other spills such as fat spatterings, wash with soap and water after the surface has cooled. Rinse well.
Do not use commercial oven cleaners, cleaning powders, steel wool or harsh abrasives on any exterior surface.

Stainless Steel Surfaces (on some models)

Do not use a steel wool pad; it will scratch the surface. To clean the stainless steel surface, use warm sudsy water or a stainless steel cleaner or polish. Always wipe the surface in the direction of the grain. Follow the cleaner instructions for cleaning the stainless steel surface.

CARE AND CLEANING: Interior Surfaces

Interior Surfaces

The interior of your new oven can be cleaned manually or by using the Steam Clean mode or the Self Clean mode (on some models).

Spillage of marinades, fruit juices, tomato sauces and basting liquids containing acids may cause discoloration and should be wiped up as soon as safely possible. Let hot surfaces cool, then clean and rinse.

Manual Cleaning

Do not use oven cleaners (unless certified for use in a self-cleaning oven), abrasive cleaners, strong liquid cleansers, steel wool, scouring pads, or cleaning powders on the interior of the oven. Clean with a mild

soap and water or a 50/50 solution of vinegar and water. Rinse with clean water and dry with a soft cloth. When cleaning surfaces, make sure that they are at room temperature.

Self Clean Mode
Read Self-Cleaning Oven Safety Instructions at the beginning of this manual before using Self Clean Mode. Self Clean uses very high temperatures to clean the oven interior. The oven door will lock when using this feature.
Before operating the self-clean cycle, wipe up grease and soils from the oven. Remove all items from the oven other than enameled (dark color) racks. Shiny or silver racks, and any cookware or other items should all be removed from the oven before initiating a self-clean cycle. Failure to remove items other than enameled (dark racks) can result in permanent discoloring of shiny racks and damage to cookware.

Close the door, press the Clean Self/Steam pad once and then press Start.
The oven door will lock for the duration of the self-clean cycle and will unlock after the oven cavity has cooled down adequately.
The surface units are automatically disabled during the self-clean cycle. Make sure that all surface unit controls are turned off at all times during the self-clean cycle.
Wait until the self-clean cycle is finished to set and use the surface units.

Steam Clean Mode
Steam clean is intended to clean small spills using water and a lower cleaning temperature than Self-Clean. The steam clean cycle is designed to sufficiently heat the water added to the oven bottom at the beginning of the steam clean cycle, so that it increases in temperature and can then condense onto food soils, softening them and making them easier to remove.
To use the Steam Clean feature, allow the oven to cool so that you can wipe grease and soils from the oven bottom and to avoid pouring cold water onto a hot oven

bottom to prevent possible thermal shock and enamel cracking. Pour 1/2 cup of water into the bottom of the oven. Close the door.
Press the Clean Self/Steam pad twice and then press Start. You should not open the door during the 30 minute steam clean as this will decrease the steam clean performance. Wipe out any excess water and any remaining soil.
NOTE: Water in the bottom of the oven may be hot right after finishing the cycle.

Oven Racks
All racks can be washed with warm, soapy water. All oven racks may be cleaned by hand with an abrasive cleaner or steel wool. Nickel-plated (silver) racks should not remain in the oven during the self clean cycle. Doing so will tarnish the racks. Racks may be more difficult to slide, especially after a Steam Clean or a Self-Clean.
Put some vegetable oil on a soft cloth or paper towel and

rub onto the left and right edges of the racks.
NOTE: 8VLQJRWKHUFRRNLQJRLOVOLNHSHDQXWRLO3DP® or other lubricant sprays, will cause a discoloring or a rust like color residue on the racks and cavity sides. To clean this residue, use a soap and water or a vinegar and water solution. Rinse with clean water and dry with a soft cloth.

Oven Heating Elements
Do not clean the bake element or the broil element. Any soil will burn off when the elements are heated. On some models, to clean the oven floor, gently lift the bake element. Clean with warm, soapy water.

CARE AND CLEANING: Interior Surfaces / Oven Door

Interior Surfaces

Porcelain Oven Interior
With proper care, the porcelain enamel finish on the inside of the oven – top, bottom, sides, back and inside of the door – will stay new-looking for years. Let the oven cool before cleaning. We recommend that you wear rubber gloves when cleaning the oven. Soap and water will normally do the job. Heavy spattering or spillovers may require cleaning with a mild abrasive cleaner. Soap-filled scouring pads may also be used. Do not allow food spills with a high sugar or acid content (such as tomatoes, sauerkraut, fruit juices or pie filling) to remain on the surface. They may cause a dull spot even after cleaning. Household ammonia may make the cleaning job easier. Place 1/2 cup in a shallow glass or pottery container in a cold oven overnight. The ammonia fumes will help loosen the burned-on grease and food. If necessary, you may use an oven cleaner that is certified for use in a self-cleaning oven. Follow the package directions.

· Do not spray oven cleaner on the electrical controls and switches because it could cause a short circuit and result in sparking or fire.
· Do not allow a film from the cleaner to build up on the temperature sensor – it could cause the oven to heat improperly. (The sensor is located at the top of the oven.) Carefully wipe the sensor clean after each oven cleaning, being careful not to move the sensor as a change in its position could affect how the oven bakes.
· Do not spray any oven cleaner on the oven door, handles or any exterior surface of the oven, cabinets or painted surfaces. The cleaner can damage these surfaces.

Oven Door

The door is very heavy. Be careful when removing and lifting the door. Do not lift the door by the handle.
