COOKING RECOMMENDATIONS Bakeware The material of bakeware affects how evenly and quickly it transfers heat from the pan to the food. Material Attributes Recommendation Shiny metal bakeware Shiny, aluminum, and non-coated bakeware is the best for even heating. It is suitable for all baked goods. Recommended cooking temperatures and times are based on shiny metal bakeware. Dark metal bakeware Dark bakeware cooks hotter than shiny bakeware.
COOKING RECOMMENDATIONS Cooking Conditions Conditions in your kitchen can affect the performance of your appliance when cooking food. Condition Aging cookware Attributes Recommendation As pans age and become discolored, cooking times may need to be reduced slightly. If food is too dark or overcooked, use the minimum cook time in the recipe or packaging. If food is too light or undercooked, use the middle to maximum cook time in the recipe or packaging.
BEFORE SETTING SURFACE CONTROLS Using Proper Cookware Cookware Material Types The size and type of cookware used will influence the heat setting needed for best cooking results. Be sure to follow the recommendations for using proper cookware as illustrated in Figure 1 and Figure 2. The cookware material determines how evenly and quickly heat is transferred from the surface element to the pan bottom.
BEFORE SETTING SURFACE CONTROLS About the Radiant Surface Elements Element On and Hot Surface Indicator Lights 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. The ELEMENT ON indicator light will turn on when one or more elements are turned on.
SETTING SURFACE CONTROLS Radiant surface elements To operate the radiant element: 1. Place correctly sized cookware on the radiant surface element. 2. Push in and turn the surface control knob in either direction (Figure 5) to the desired setting (refer to the “Suggested radiant surface element settings” table, Table 1). 3. When cooking is complete, turn the radiant surface element OFF before removing the cookware.
SETTING SURFACE CONTROLS Home Canning Be sure to read and observe all the following points when home canning with your appliance. Check with the USDA (United States Department of Agriculture) Web site and be sure to read all the information they have available as well as follow their recommendations for home canning procedures. • Use only a completely flat bottom canner with no ridges that radiate from the bottom center when home canning. Heat is spread more evenly when the bottom surface is flat.
BEFORE SETTING OVEN CONTROLS Oven Vent Location Types of oven racks The oven is vented as shown below. When the oven is on, warm air is released through the vent. This venting is necessary for proper air circulation in the oven and good baking results. Do not block oven vent. Never close off the openings with aluminium foil or any other material. Steam or moisture may appear near the oven vent. This is normal.
SETTING OVEN CONTROLS READ THE INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY BEFORE USING THE OVEN For satisfactory use of your oven, become familiar with the various features and functions in this section To set minute timer (some models) NOTE Not all models are equipped with a time of day clock or minute timer. If your model is not equipped with a clock display, the time of day and the minute timer features shown on this page will not be available.
SETTING OVEN CONTROLS Setting bake To set Bake: Bake cooks with heat that rises from the oven bottom. The heat and air circulate naturally in the oven. Follow baking recommendations for best results. 1. Turn the oven temp. control knob to the desired oven temperature (Figure 9). The oven can be programmed to bake at any temperature from 170°F to 550°F (77°C to 288°C). Baking Tips • Fully preheat the oven before baking items like cookies, cakes, biscuits, and breads.
SETTING OVEN CONTROLS Setting broil . Use the broil feature to cook meats that require direct exposure to radiant heat for optimum browning results. When broiling always remember to arrange the oven racks while oven is still cool. NOTE: Broiling is direct heat cooking and will produce some smoke. If smoke is excessive, place food further away from the element. Watch food to prevent burning. For medium done steaks, position the oven rack closer to the broil element.
CARE AND CLEANING Remove spills and any heavy soiling as soon as possible. Regular cleaning will reduce the difficulty of major cleaning later. CAUTION • Before cleaning any part of the appliance, be sure all controls are turned off and the appliance is cool. • If ammonia or appliance cleaners are used, they must be removed and the appliance must be thoroughly rinsed before operating.

If necessary, cover difficult spots with an ammonia-soaked paper towel for 30 to 40 minutes. Rinse and wipe dry with a clean cloth. Remove all cleaners or future heating could damage the porcelain.
CARE AND CLEANING Surface elements and drip bowls CAUTION • Make sure drip bowls are in place - Absence of these bowls during cooking may subject wiring or components underneath to damage. • Never immerse a surface element in water. • Be sure the range is cool before removing surface elements or drip bowls. Be careful not to bend terminal ends when replacing surface elements after cleaning. • Protective liners—Do not use aluminum foil to line surface drip bowls or reflector pans.
CARE AND CLEANING Aluminum Foil and Utensils WARNING • Never cover any slots, holes, or passages in the oven bottom or cover an entire oven rack with materials such as aluminum foil.
