4.8 Cu. Ft. Electric Convection Range with Self Clean and Air Fry The cooktop burners are radiant surface elements. When you turn on an element, the temperature rises gradually and evenly. As the temperature rises, the radiant element glows red. To maintain the selected setting, the element cycles on and off. The heating element retains enough heat to help provide a more uniform and consistent heat during the off cycle. For efficient cooking, turn off the element several minutes before cooking is complete.
Using a surface element control knob SETTING TYPE OF COOKING HIGH Starting most foods, bringing water to a boil, or pan broiling MEDIUM HIGH Continuing a rapid boil, frying, deep fat frying, or steaming vegetables MEDIUM Maintaining a slow boil or thickening sauces and gravies, MEDIUM LOW Keeping foods cooking, poaching, or stewing LOW Keeping food warming or melting 1 Push the knob in. 2 For the left and right rear burners, turn knob in either direction to the setting you want.
4.8 Cu. Ft. Electric Convection Range with Self Clean and Air Fry Types of cookware What your cookware is made of determines how evenly and quickly heat is transferred from the surface element to the pan bottom. MATERIAL DESCRIPTION Aluminum Excellent heat conductor. Some types of food cause aluminum to darken. (Anodized aluminum cookware resists staining and pitting.) If you slide aluminum pans across the ceramic cooktop, they may leave metal marks that resemble scratches.
Using the oven Minimum and maximum settings WARNING: Stand away from the oven when opening the oven door. Escaping hot air or steam can burn your hands, face, or eyes. Let hot air or steam escape before removing or replacing food.

Self-cleaning the oven CAUTIONS: • Do not leave small children unattended near your range during the self-cleaning cycle. The outside surfaces of the range can get extremely hot. • Some birds are extremely sensitive to fumes from a self-cleaning oven. Relocate birds to a well-ventilated room away from your range. • Do not line the oven, oven racks, or oven bottom with aluminum foil. Doing so results in poor heat distribution, produces poor baking results, and causes permanent damage to the oven interior.
4.8 Cu. Ft. Electric Convection Range with Self Clean and Air Fry 4 Press the Start pad. When the operation is complete, the display blinks and a beep sounds. Note: If you press the Oven Clean pad when the oven temperature is above 150° F (65° C), Hot appears in the display. Because this function produces the best results when started while the oven is cool, we recommend that you wait until the oven has cooled down and Hot disappears from the display. 5 Press the Off/Clear pad.
Cooktop PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSE SOLUTION The surface burners do not produce a rolling boil or do not cook fast enough. You may be using inappropriate cookware. Use pans which are flat and match the diameter of the surface element you selected. In some areas, the power (voltage) may be low. Cover the pan with a lid until the desired heat is obtained. If your range was recently installed, its power cord connection may be incorrect causing the burners and oven to receive half the normal voltage.
4.8 Cu. Ft. Electric Convection Range with Self Clean and Air Fry Oven PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSE SOLUTION The oven does not turn on. A fuse in your home may be blown or the circuit breaker tripped. Replace the fuse or reset the circuit breaker. The oven controls have been See Using the oven on page 28. set incorrectly. The oven is too hot. Let the oven cool. Incomplete service wiring. Call for service. Power outage. Check to see if the house lights turn on.
PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSE SOLUTION Steam is coming out of the vent. When using the convection feature, it is normal to see steam coming out of the oven vent. This is normal operation, and not a system failure. Use the oven as usual. As the number of racks or amount of food being cooked increases, the amount of visible steam increases. A burning or oily odor is coming from the vent. This is normal in a new oven and disappears in time. Strong odor.
