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.

Oven light
Your appliance includes “theater” style oven lighting
that gradually lights both the upper and lower oven
interiors to full brightness. The upper oven is equipped
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.

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.

Types of oven racks
Your appliance is equipped with different styles
of interior oven racks; regular oven rack and fully
extendable Luxury-Glide
TM
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
