Cooktop Use

WARNING: Fire Hazard

Turn off all controls when done cooking. Failure to do so can result in death or fire.

The control knobs can be set to anywhere between HIGH and LOW. Push in and turn to setting.

REMEMBER: When range is in use, the entire cooktop area may become hot.

Ceramic Glass

The surface cooking area will glow red when an element is on. Some parts of the surface cooking area may not glow red when an element is on. This is normal operation. It may cycle on and off to maintain the selected heat level.

It is normal for the surface of light colored ceramic glass to appear to change color when surface cooking areas are hot. As the glass cools, it will return to its original color.

Clean the cooktop after each use to help avoid scratches, pitting, abrasions and to condition the glass surface. Ceramic glass cooktop cleaner and a cooktop scraper are also recommended for stubborn soils. Do not use abrasive cleaners, cleaning pads or harsh chemicals for cleaning. The Cooktop Care Kit Part Number 31605 contains all of the items needed to clean and condition your ceramic glass cooktop. Refer to the "Range Care" section for additional information.

IMPORTANT: To avoid permanent damage to the cooktop surface and to make soils easier to remove, clean the cooktop after each use to remove all soils.

Cookware Sizing and Flatness

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.

Diagram Description: A diagram shows a circular surface cooking area labeled 'A', with cookware placed on it labeled 'B'. A measurement line indicates 'C' as the maximum overhang of 1/2" (1.3 cm).

Use flat-bottomed cookware for best heat conduction and energy efficiency. Cookware with rounded, warped, ribbed or dented bottoms could cause uneven heating and poor cooking results.

Determine 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.

Cookware designed with slightly indented bottoms or small expansion channels can be used.

Make sure the bottoms of pots and pans are clean and dry before using them. Residue and water can leave deposits when heated.

To avoid damage to the cooktop, do not cook foods directly on the cooktop.

Cooktop Indicator Lights

The Cooktop On indicator light is located on the console panel. When any control knob on the console panel is turned on, the Cooktop On indicator light will glow.

The Hot Surface indicator light (on ceramic glass models) is located on the console panel. The hot surface indicator light will glow as long as any surface cooking area is too hot to touch, even after the surface cooking area is turned off.

Triple-Choice™ Element

The Triple-Choice™ Element offers flexibility depending on the size of the cookware. Single size can be used in the same way as a regular element. The dual and triple sizes combine single, dual and outer elements and are recommended for larger size cookware, large quantities of food, and home canning.

Diagram Description: A diagram shows control knob settings for an element, with positions for 'off', 'low', 'med', 'high'. It also illustrates three element sizes: 'A. Single', 'B. Dual', 'C. Triple'.

Melt Element

The Melt Cooking Zone offers flexibility due to a wide range of settings between High and Melt. The High heat option can be used to boil small amounts of liquid quickly. To reduce the power setting, turn the knob clockwise. The Melt setting is designed for delicate foods that require low heat, such as when melting chocolate or holding sauces. Use cookware appropriate in size for the Melt Cooking Zone.

Diagram Description: A diagram shows control knob settings for the Melt Element, with positions for 'off', 'melt', 'med', '80%', 'high'. It labels 'A. Melt option' and 'B. High heat option'.

Warming Center Element

WARNING: Food Poisoning Hazard

Do not let food sit for more than one hour before or after cooking. Doing so can result in food poisoning or sickness.

Use the Cooktop Warming Center element to keep cooked foods warm. One hour is the recommended maximum time to maintain food quality.

Do not use it to heat cold foods.

The Warming Center element can be used alone or when any of the other surface cooking areas are being used. The Warming Center element area will not glow red when cycling on. However, the Element On light will glow while the Cooktop Warming Center element is in use.

Cookware and Canning

Cookware Guide

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. 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 surfaces.

Cookware material is a factor in how quickly and evenly heat is transferred, which affects cooking results. A nonstick finish has the same characteristics as its base material. For example, aluminum cookware with a nonstick finish will take on the properties of aluminum.

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.

Cookware Material Characteristics

COOKWARECHARACTERISTICS
AluminumHeats quickly and evenly. 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 ironHeats slowly and evenly. Good for browning and frying. Maintains heat for slow cooking. Rough edges or burrs may scratch the cooktop.
Ceramic or Ceramic glassFollow manufacturer's instructions. Heats slowly, but unevenly. Ideal results on low to medium heat settings. May scratch the cooktop.
CopperHeats very quickly and evenly. May leave copper residues, which may be diminished if cleaned immediately after cooking. Can leave a permanent stain or bond to the cooktop if overheated.
EarthenwareFollow manufacturer's instructions. Use on low heat settings. May scratch the cooktop.
Porcelain enamel-on-steel or cast ironSee stainless steel or cast iron. Porcelain enamel bakeware without the metal base may bond to the cooktop if overheated.
Stainless steelHeats quickly, but unevenly. A core or base of aluminum or copper on stainless steel provides even heating.

Use flat-bottomed cookware for best cooking results and energy efficiency. The cookware should be about the same size as the cooking area outlined on the cooktop. Cookware should not extend more than 1/2" (1.3 cm) outside the area.

Home Canning

Canning can be performed on a glass smooth top cooking surface or traditional coil element cooktop. When canning for long periods, alternate the use of surface cooking areas or elements between batches. This allows time for the most recently used areas to cool.

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.

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.

Bakeware

To cook food evenly, hot air must be able to circulate. Allow 2" (5 cm) of space around bakeware and oven walls. Make sure that no bakeware piece is directly over another.

Racks

To move a rack, pull it out to the stop position, raise the front edge, and then lift out. Use the following illustration and charts as a guide.

Diagram Description: A diagram shows a side view of an oven interior with rack positions labeled 1 through 7. It also shows a detail of a rack's ends ('A') and food placement ('B').

Rack Positions for Flat Racks:

Flat Rack Position*Type of Food
7Broiling/searing meats, hamburgers, steaks
6Broiled meats, poultry, fish
3 or 4Most baked goods, casseroles
2Roasted meats
1Large roasts or poultry

*If your model has a Max Capacity Rack, the recessed ends must be placed in the rack position above the desired position of the food.

For hamburger patties to have a well-seared exterior and a rare interior, use rack position 7. Side 1 should cook for approximately 2½ - 3½ minutes. Side 2 should cook for approximately 4-5 minutes. Expect a moderate degree of smoke when broiling.

Multiple Rack Cooking

2-rack: Use rack positions 2 and 5 for regular baking.

2-rack (convection only): Use rack positions 2 and 5; or 3 and 6.

3-rack (true convection only): Use rack positions 1, 4 and 7; or 2, 4 and 6.

Baking Cookies and Layer Cakes on 2 Racks

Baking Layer Cakes

For best results when baking cakes on 2 racks, use the Convect Bake function and racks 2 and 5. Place the cakes on the racks as shown.

Baking Cookies

For best results when baking cookies on 2 racks, use the Convect Bake function and rack 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.

Baking, Roasting & Convection

Precision Cooking™ System - Precise Bake

The Precise Bake 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 preheating to provide the best results. This feature is automatically activated when the oven is in use.

Preheating

When Start is pressed, the oven will begin preheating. Once 100°F (38°C) is reached, the display temperature will increase as the actual temperature of the oven increases. When the preheat temperature is reached, a tone will sound, and the selected temperature will appear on the display. The time necessary to preheat the oven to 350°F (177°C) is approximately 10 to 15 minutes, depending on the model.

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.

Power Preheat

Power Preheat can be used to shorten the preheating time. Only one standard flat rack should be in the oven during Power Preheat. Extra racks should be removed prior to starting Power Preheat. Press POWER PREHEAT and follow the oven control prompts, or, if preheating has already started, simply press POWER PREHEAT. The preheating cycle should be completed before placing food in the oven and should be used only for one-rack baking. When the Power Preheat cycle is complete, the oven starts a normal Bake cycle.

Broiling

Leave the door open 6" (15 cm) at the broil stop position to ensure proper broiling temperature. Preheat the oven for 5 minutes before putting food in unless recommended otherwise in the recipe. Position food on grid in a broiler pan, 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. Use racks 6 or 7 for broiling. 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 "Accessories" section for more information.

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 surfaces while sealing in moisture and yielding crustier breads.

IMPORTANT: With convection cooking, most foods can be cooked at a lower temperature or at a shorter time. This range automatically reduces the set oven temperature by 25°F (15°C) for convection cooking.

During convection cooking, the bake, broil and convection 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.

EvenAir™ True Convection

When convection baking, broiling or roasting, enter your normal baking temperature. The control will automatically reduce the set oven temperature by 25°F (15°C).

AquaLift® Technology is an innovative cleaning solution that utilizes heat and water to release baked-on spills from the oven in less than 1 hour. This new cleaning technology is a low-heat, odor-free alternative to traditional self-cleaning options.

Allow the oven to cool to room temperature before using the Clean cycle. If your oven cavity is above 200°F (93°C), "OVEN COOLING" will appear in the display, and the Clean cycle will not be activated until the oven cavity cools down.

To Clean:
  1. Remove all racks and accessories from the oven cavity and wipe excess soil. Use a plastic scraper to remove easily-removed soils.
  2. Pour 2 cups (16 oz [500 mL]) of distilled or filtered water onto the bottom of the empty oven and close the oven door.
  3. Press CLEAN and then START on the oven control panel.
  4. Allow 40 minutes for cleaning and cool down. A beep will sound when the Clean cycle is complete.
  5. Press CANCEL at the end of the cycle. CANCEL may be pressed at any time to stop the Clean cycle.
  6. Remove the residual water and loosened soils with a sponge or cloth immediately after the Clean cycle is complete. Much of the initial 2 cups (16 oz [500 mL]) of water will remain in the oven after the cycle is completed. If additional soils remain, leave a small amount of water in the oven bottom to assist with the cleaning.
  7. If any soils remain, remove them with a non-scratch scrubbing sponge or plastic scraper. Additional Clean cycles may be run to help remove the stubborn soils.

IMPORTANT: Do not use chemicals or other additives with the water. Do not open the oven door during the Clean cycle. The water on the oven bottom is hot.
