Using your Range The Cooktop When you cook on a electric cooktop its very important to use the right sort of pans... 5 Always lift pans off the cooktop. Sliding pans may cause marks and scratches. Always turn the control to the off position before removing a pan. 1 Use only pans that are suitable for electric cooktops. We recommend stainless steel and enameled steel pans because pots and pans with copper or aluminum bases leave traces on the cooktop that are difficult to remove.
Using your Range When cooking on the cooktop you may see the cooktop area you are using switch off and on. This is caused by a safety device that limits the temperature of the cooktop. It is quite normal, especially when cooking at high temperatures. If it happens a lot with a particular pan however it may mean the pan is not suitable – perhaps too small or too uneven - for a electric cooktop.
Using your Range The Broiler Before using for the first time, to dispel manufacturing odors, turn on the broiler and run for 30 minutes with the broiler pan in position. To clear the smell make sure the room is well ventilated to the outside air, by opening windows for example. Caution: Accessible parts may be hot when the broiler is in use. Young children should be kept away. For best results preheat for 2 minutes with the broiler pan in position.
Using your Range The Ovens The clock must be set to the time of day before the ovens will work. See ‘The Clock’ section for instructions on setting the time of day. Before using for the first time, to dispel manufacturing odors turn the ovens to 400°F (204°C) and run for an hour. To clear the smell make sure the room is well ventilated to the outside air, by opening windows for example. During use the appliance becomes hot. Care should be taken to avoid touching the heating elements inside the oven.

Using your Range Clock Special Features Turn the Setting knob to the ( ) position. The display will show the current time of day plus the ‘cook period’ you just set. Key Lock When the key lock is activated, the clock can be operated as usual but the ovens are locked and will not come on. This means that your child could select a cook program but the program will not be activated and ovens will not switch on. Use the adjustment knob to set the ‘Stop time’ you need. ‘Stop Time’ shows.
Using your Range Cooking using the timer (Delayed baking) Both ovens Before using for the first time, to dispel manufacturing odors turn the ovens to 400°F (204°C) and run for an hour. To clear the smell make sure the room is well ventilated to the outside air, by opening windows for example. The timer can be used to turn just one oven or both on and off automatically. The start and stop time must be the same for both ovens but different cooking temperatures can be set.
Using your Range Convection oven Multi-function oven This function operates the fan and the heating element around it. An even heat is produced throughout the oven, allowing you to cook large amounts quickly. The left hand oven of your range is Multi-function. It has many varied uses. We suggest you keep a careful eye on your cooking until you are familiar with each function. Remember - not all functions will be suitable for all food types.
Using your Range Conventional oven (top and Handyrack base heat) This function combines the heat from the top and base elements. It is particularly suitable for roasting and baking pastry, cakes and biscuits. Food cooked on the top rack will brown and crisp faster than on the lower rack, because the heat is greater at the top of the oven than at the base, as in ‘Convection assisted oven’ function. Similar items being cooked will need to be swapped around for even cooking.
Using your Range Oven racks Steam When cooking foods with high water content (e.g. oven fries) there may be some steam visible at the grille at the rear of the cooktop. This is perfectly normal. Oven lights the rack guard should be at the back pointing upwards As well as the flat racks some models are supplied with drop racks. The drop racks increase the possibilities for oven rack spacing. Press the appropriate button to turn on one of the oven lights.
Using your Range To remove the drawer pull it right out Lift up the ends of the plastic clips (one each side) to release the catches holding the drawer to the side runners and at the same time pull the drawer forward and away from the side runners. For safety’s sake push the drawer runners back out of the way. To refit the drawer Pull out the side runners. Rest the drawer back on the side runners and, keeping it level, push it right back.
Using your Range Multi-function (Left hand) Oven cooking guide Remember - not all modes will be suitable for all food types. The oven control settings and cooking times given are intended to be used only as a guide. Individual tastes may require the temperature to be altered to provide a preferred result. Food is cooked at a lower temperature in a convection oven than in a conventional oven. When using recipes, reduce the temperature by 20°F and the cooking time by 5-10 minutes.

Using your Range Cleaning your range IMPORTANT: Turn off the cooktop and use an oven glove to protect your hand from potential burns. Take care when using a sharp scraper. Essential information Before thorough cleaning isolate the electricity supply. Remember to switch on the electricity supply before use. Scrape the major spill or melted material from the cooking zone and push into a cold area, and then allow to cool before cleaning further.
Using your Range Cleaning chart All Parts listed here can be cleaned using hot soapy water (dishwashing liquid detergent) and a soft cloth.
