The ceramic cooktop has radiant surface elements

located below the surface of the glass. The design

of the ceramic cooktop outlines the area of the

surface element underneath. Makesure the

diameter of the pan matches the diameter of the

element outline on the cooktop. Heat is transferred

up through the surface of the cooktop to the

cookware.Onlyat-bottomcookwareshouldbe

used. The type and size of cookware, the number

of surface elements in use and the settings, are all

factors that will affect the amount of heat that will

spread to areas beyond the surface elements. The

areas surrounding the elements may become hot

enough to cause burns.

The element temperature rises gradually and

evenly. As the temperature rises, the element will

glow red. To maintain the selected setting, the

element will cycle on and off. The heating element

retains enough heat to provide a uniform and

consistentheatduringtheoffcycle.Forefcient

cooking, turn off the element several minutes

before cooking is complete. This will allow residual

heat to complete the cooking process.

Your range is equipped with radiant surface

burners with different wattage ratings. The ability to

heat food quicker and in larger volumes increases

as the element wattage increases.

with 2 halogen lights and the lower oven is equipped

with 1 halogen light. The oven lights will turn on

automatically when the oven door is opened. The

oven light may be turned on when the door is closed

by using the oven light pad located on the control

panel. The oven light key will toggle the lights in both

ovens at the same time at full intensity.

NOTE: For best results, keep the oven light turned

OFF during baking. Remember to turn the light OFF

after checking food.

To toggle the Oven Lights ON and OFF:

1. Press OVEN LIGHT .

Surface Cooking

NOTE

Radiant elements have a limiter that allows the

element to cycle ON and OFF, even at the HI

setting. This helps to prevent damage to the

ceramic glass cooktop. Cycling at the HI setting is

normal and can also occur if the cookware is too

small for the radiant element or if the cookware

bottomisnotat.

Please read detailed instructions for ceramic

glass cooktop cleaning in the Care & Cleaning

section and Solutions to Common Problems

section of this Use and Care Guide.

Surface cooking utensils

Note: Always use a utensil for its intended

purpose. Follow manufacturer’s instructions. Some

utensils were not made to be used in the oven or

on the cooktop.

Cookware material types

The cookware material determines how evenly and

quickly heat is transferred from the surface element

to the pan bottom. The most popular materials

available are:

ALUMINUM - Excellent heat conductor. Some

types of food will cause it to darken (Anodized

aluminumcookwareresistsstaining&pitting).If

aluminum pans slide across the ceramic glass

cooktop, they may leave metal marks which

will resemble scratches. Remove these marks

immediately.

COPPER - Excellent heat conductor but discolors

easily.Mayleavemetalmarksonceramicglass

(see Aluminum above).

STAINLESS STEEL - Slow heat conductor with

uneven cooking results. Is durable, easy to clean

and resists staining.

CASTIRON - A poor heat conductor however will

retain heat very well. Cooks evenly once cooking

temperature is reached. Not recommended for use

on ceramic cooktops.

PORCELAIN-ENAMELonMETAL - Heating

characteristics will vary depending on base

material. Porcelain-enamel coating must be smooth

to avoid scratching ceramic cooktops.

GLASS - Slow heat conductor. Not recommended

for ceramic cooktop surfaces because it may

scratch the glass.

Setting the Lower Oven

About the lower oven

The lower oven is ideal for cooking foods such

as pizza, casseroles, baked potatoes and frozen

convenience foods. Use the keep warm feature to

keep hot cooked foods at serving temperature. The

lower oven can only be used with some cooking

modes; Bake, Slow Cook and Keep Warm (read

their sections for precise instructions).

Keep children away from the lower oven when

hot. Failure to do so can result in burns.

Shouldanovenreoccur,closethedrawerand

Always use oven mitts when removing food

from the lower oven. The lower oven rack,

compartment, cookware/plates may be hot.

See example below to set a bake to start

immediately using the default temperature.

Once START is pressed the oven will begin heating.

The oven display shows PRE-HEATING.

After the oven reaches set temperature, PRE-

HEATING will turn off and a beep will indicate the

oven is ready. The oven will continue to maintain this

temperature until the cooking feature is canceled.

Setting bake for lower oven

• Thelowerovenrackmust

always be in place

when cooking or

warming.Besure

that the rack is

placed with the

down turned

sides into the

drawer. This

will provide for

some air space

between the

drawer and the

food.

• Whenplacingfoodin

the lower oven always use a

baking sheet or pan with 4 raised

sides to prevent food from sliding off.

• DONOTLINETHEOVENDRAWERWITH

FOILORCOVERTHEOVENRACKWITH

FOIL. This may result in damage to your oven.

• Themaximumheightoffoodsandutensils

that may be used in the lower oven is 4”. The

maximum width is 15”. Pay close attention to

foods that have potential to rise beyond the

recommended4”maximumheight.

• Usepansinthelowerovenlargeenoughto

• Do not use plastic wrap to cover food. Plastic

may melt onto the lower oven or surrounding

areasandbeverydifculttoclean.Use a

lid or aluminum foil instead. Use only utensils

and cookware in the lower oven that are

recommended for oven use in the upper oven.

• Whenusingtheloweroven,limitthenumberof

times the drawer is opened; this will minimize

heat loss. Repeated opening of the drawer

during the cooking process may increase

cooking times and produce uneven cooking

results. The cooking times for the lower oven

may vary slightly from the upper oven.

Before Setting the Oven Controls

Oven racksAir circulation in the oven

Oven vents location

Types of oven racks

Your appliance is equipped with different styles

of interior oven racks; regular oven rack and fully

extendable Luxury-Glide

oven racks.

For best air circulation and baking results allow

2-4" (5-10 cm) around the cookware for proper air

circulation and be sure pans and cookware do not

touch each other, the oven door, sides or back of

the oven cavity. The hot air must circulate around

the pans and cookware in the oven for even heat to

reach around the food.

The oven is vented above each door. When the

oven is on, warm air is released through the vents.

This venting is necessary for proper air circulation

in the oven and good baking results.

Steam or moisture may appear near the oven vent.

This is normal

Always use potholders or oven mitts when

removingfoodoradjustingtheovenracks.Wait

until the oven has completely cooled if possible.

Oven racks may be HOT and may cause burns.

Regular oven

rack - Fig. 1

The regular -Fig. 1- oven rack may be used in all

of the rack position.

The fully extendable glide rack -Fig. 2- makes food

preparation easier. Especially when preparing

heavier dishes. The glide oven rack has 2 glide

tracks that allow you to extend your food away from

the oven effortlessly without rubbing the sides of

the oven wall.

NOTE

Always use caution when removing food from the

oven.
