Model Number __________________________________ To ensure proper and safe operation: Appliance must be properly installed and grounded by a qualified technician. Do not attempt to adjust, repair, service, or replace any part of your appliance unless it is specifically recommended in this guide. All other servicing should be referred to a qualified servicer. Serial Number __________________________________ Always disconnect power to appliance before servicing.
Child Safety Use dry, sturdy potholders. Damp potholders may cause burns from steam. Dish towels or other substitutes should never be used as potholders because they can trail across hot elements and ignite or get caught on appliance parts. CAUTION NEVER store items of interest to children in cabinets above an appliance. Children climbing on the appliance or on the appliance door to reach items could be seriously injured. Wear proper apparel.
Self-Clean Oven (select models) Never let a pan boil dry as this could damage the utensil and the appliance. CAUTION Cooktop Before self-cleaning the oven, remove the oven racks, broiler pan, food and any other utensils. Wipe spillovers to prevent excessive smoke and flare-ups. NEVER leave surface units unattended especially when using high heat. An unattended boilover could cause smoking and a greasy spillover can cause a fire. This appliance is equipped with different size surface elements.
Care & Cleaning Self-Clean Oven (select models) 6. Wipe up sugary and acidic spillovers such as sweet potatoes, tomato, or milk-based sauces. Porcelain enamel is acid-resistant, not acid-proof. The porcelain finish may discolor if acidic spills are not wiped up before a self-clean cycle. Important: For manual clean oven, see page 6. CAUTION To set Self-Clean: • It is normal for parts of the range to become hot during a self-clean cycle.

Press the More+ or Less- pad. • “CL-M” (Medium Soil, 3 hours) is displayed. After Self-Cleaning 5. Press the More+ or Less- pad to scroll through the selfcleaning settings. About one hour after the end of the self-clean cycle, “LOCK” will turn off. The door can then be opened. The door can then be opened.
• When using commercial oven cleaners follow the manufacturer’s instructions. • Wipe up acidic spills (tomato or milk based foods) as soon as possible with soap and water. If the spill is not wiped up, it may discolor the porcelain. To make cleaning easier, remove the oven door, if desired. (See Maintenance section on page 7.) Broiler Pan and Insert Never cover insert with aluminum foil as this prevents the fat from draining to the pan below.
Maintenance Oven Light Oven Door CAUTION CAUTION • Disconnect power to range before replacing light bulb. • Use a dry potholder to prevent possible harm to hands when replacing bulb. • Be sure bulb is cool before touching bulb. • Do not touch hot bulb with a damp cloth as this may cause the bulb to break. • Do not place excessive weight on or stand on an open oven door. This could cause the range to tip over, break the door, or injure the user.
Storage Drawer 2. Lift up the front of the drawer and gently push in to the first stop position. 3. Lift drawer up again and push until drawer is closed. CAUTION Do not store plastic, paper products, food or flammable materials in this drawer. The drawer may become too warm for these items when the oven is in use. Convenience Outlet (Canadian models only) The convenience outlet is located on the lower left side of the backguard. Be sure appliance cords do not rest on or near the surface element.
Moisture collects on oven window or steam comes from oven vent. • This is normal when cooking foods high in moisture. • Excessive moisture was used when cleaning the window. • If the oven is heavily soiled, excessive flareups may result in a fault code during cleaning. Press the CANCEL pad and allow the oven to cool completely, wipe out excess soil, then reset the clean cycle. If the fault code reappears, contact an authorized servicer. There is a strong odor or light smoke when oven is turned on.
CAUTION AFTER COOKING • Make sure surface unit is turned off. • Clean up messy spills as soon as possible. BEFORE COOKING • Always place a pan on the surface unit before you turn it on. To prevent damage to range, never operate surface unit without a pan in place. • NEVER use the cooktop as a storage area for food or cookware. OTHER TIPS • If cabinet storage is provided directly above cooking surface, limit it to items that are infrequently used and can be safely stored in an area subjected to heat.
