What Not to Do
21. Always set utensils gently onto the grates
and center them so that they are well-
balanced.
22. Always keep the cooktop surface clean and
dry.
1. Do not use the range for warming or
heating the room.
2. Do not leave children alone or unattended
in the area where the range is in use.
Never allow children to sit or stand on any
part of the oven. Do not let children play
with the range.
3. Do not store items of interest to children
above the range. Children could be burned
or injured while climbing on the appliance.
4. Do not wear loose or hanging apparel while
using the range.
5. Do not store combustible, flammable or
explosive materials in the range or in
adjacent cabinets.
6. CAUTION: DO NOT LEAVE FOOD OR
COOKING UTENSILS, ETC., IN THE
OVEN DURING THE SELF-CLEAN
CYCLE.
7. Do not repair or replace any part of the
range unless specifically recommended
in literature accompanying this appliance.
All other service should be referred to a
qualified technician.
8. Do not use water on grease fires. A violent
steam explosion may result. Smother any
flames with a lid, cookie sheet or flat tray.
Flaming grease can be extinguished with
baking soda or foam extinguisher.
9. Do not allow potholders to touch hot
surfaces or gas burners. Do not use towels
or bulky cloth as potholders.
10. Do not use commercial oven cleaners or
oven liner protective coatings on any part
of the oven.
11. Do not clean the door gasket, because
rubbing, moving or in any way damaging
the gasket, may eliminate the required tight
door seal.
12. DO NOT TOUCH INTERIOR SURFACES
OF THE OVEN. During and after use, do
not touch or let clothing or other flammable
materials contact heating elements or
interior surfaces of the oven until they have
had sufficient time to cool.
13. Do not block or obstruct the holes below
the control knobs. Blocking these holes
may affect burner operation and may result
in a hazard.
14. When using the cooktop, do not touch the
grates, burner caps, burner bases, or any
other parts in proximity to the flame. These
components may be hot enough to cause
burns.
15. If the cooktop is near a window, do not use
long curtains as a window treatment. The
curtains could blow over the cooktop and
create a fire hazard.
16. Do not cover the burners and grates with
anything except properly selected utensils.
Decorative covers should not be used.
17. Do not heat unopened food containers,
such as baby food jars and cans. Pressure
build-up may cause the container to burst
and cause injury.
18. Do not use abrasive or caustic cleaners
or detergents on this appliance. They may
cause permanent damage. Do not use
aerosol cleaners. They may be flammable
or cause corrosion of metal parts.
19. Do not use or attempt to use this appliance
in the event of a power failure.
20. Do not touch the oven exhaust cover on
the cooktop when the oven is in use.
21. Do not slide cookware across the grates.
Sliding may damage the finish of the
grates. Lift utensils to reposition them.
22. Do not allow acids (citrus juices, tomato
sauces, etc.) to remain on the oven cell
surfaces. The porcelain finish may stain.
23. Do not touch the range top or backguard
with your bare hands during all cooking
and self cleaning modes. Venting from
the oven may cause the cooktop and
backguard to become hot.
Getting Started
Before using your range, become familiar with
the features and control panel layout.
Below the oven mode touch pads are three
touch pads labeled “CANCEL•SECURE,”
“LIGHT” and “COOK TIME”. The
“CANCEL•SECURE” touch pad enables the
user to cancel the selection of an oven mode
or Delay Timed program, or disable the control
panel by pressing and holding the pad for
approximately three (3) seconds. Once the
control panel is in the “SECURE” mode, “OFF”
will be displayed on the clock. The “LIGHT”
touch pad turns the interior oven light “on”
and “off.” The “LIGHT” touch pad will remain
functional if the control panel has been disabled.
The “COOK TIME” touch pad is used to select
the length of time for a cooking process in Delay
Timed cooking mode.
Clock functions are selected by pressing the
touch pads located below the clock display
and oven mode touch pads. Oven functions
are chosen by pressing the touch pad for the
desired mode. Once a clock or oven function
has been chosen, a description of the selection
will flash in the clock display area.
IMPORTANT:
After choosing a clock function or oven
mode, you have six seconds to perform the
next programming step. If the next step is
not completed within six (6) seconds, the
program selection displayed on the clock
will disappear. Should this occur, just repeat
the initial function selection
