Care and Cleaning Installation Instructions
WARNING!
For your safety, the information in this manual must be followed to minimize the risk of fire or explosion,
electric shock, or to prevent property damage, personal injury, or loss of life.
All ranges can tip and injury could result.
To prevent accidental tipping of the range, attach it to the wall and floor by installing the Anti-Tip device
supplied.
To check if the device is installed and engaged properly, carefully tip the range forward. The Anti-Tip
device should engage and prevent the range from tipping over.
If you pull the range out from the wall for any reason, make sure the device is properly engaged
when you push the range back against the wall. If it is not, there is a possible risk of the range
tipping over and causing injury if you or a child stand, sit or lean on an open door.
Please refer to the Anti-Tip device information in this manual. Failure to take this precaution
could result in tipping of the range and injury.
WARNING
ANTI-TIP DEVICE
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should be followed, including the following:
Use this appliance only for its intended
purpose as described in this Owner’s
Manual.
Be sure your appliance is properly installed
and grounded by a qualified technician in
accordance with the provided installation
instructions.
Do not attempt to repair or replace any part
of your range unless it is specifically
recommended in this manual. All other
servicing should be referred to a qualified
technician.
Before performing any service, disconnect
the range power supply at the household
distribution panel by removing the fuse or
switching off the circuit breaker.
Do not leave children alone—children
should not be left alone or unattended in an
area where an appliance is in use. They
should never be allowed to sit or stand on
any part of the appliance.
Do not allow anyone to climb, stand or hang
on the door, storage drawer or cooktop.
They could damage the range and even tip it
over, causing severe personal injury.
Do not store flammable materials in an oven
or near the cooktop.
CAUTION:
Items of interest to children
should not be stored in cabinets above a
range or on the backsplash of a range—
children climbing on the range to reach
items could be seriously injured.

Safety InstructionsCare and CleaningInstallation InstructionsTroubleshooting Tips
Never wear loose-fitting or hanging garments
while using the appliance. Be careful when
reaching for items stored over the range.
Flammable material could be ignited if
brought in contact with hot surface units or
heating elements and may cause severe
burns.
Use only dry pot holders—moist or damp pot
holders on hot surfaces may result in burns
from steam. Do not let pot holders touch hot
surface units or heating elements. Do not use
a towel or other bulky cloth.
For your safety, never use your appliance
for warming or heating the room.
Do not let cooking grease or other
flammable materials accumulate in
or near the range.
Do not use water on grease fires. Never pick
up a flaming pan. Turn the controls off.
Smother a flaming pan on a surface unit by
covering the pan completely with a well-
fitting lid, cookie sheet or flat tray. Use a
multi-purpose dry chemical or foam-type
fire extinguisher.
Flaming grease outside a pan can be put
out by covering it with baking soda or, if
available, by using a multi-purpose dry
chemical or foam-type fire extinguisher.
Flame in the oven can be smothered
completely by closing the oven door and
turning the oven off or by using a multi-
purpose dry chemical or foam-type fire
extinguisher.
Do not touch the surface units, the heating
elements or the interior surface of the oven.
These surfaces may be hot enough to burn
even though they are dark in color. During
and after use, do not touch, or let clothing
or other flammable materials contact, the
surface units, areas nearby the surface units
or any interior area of the oven; allow
sufficient time for cooling first.
Potentially hot surfaces include the cooktop,
areas facing the cooktop, oven vent opening,
surfaces near the opening, crevices around
the oven door and metal trim parts above
the door.
REMEMBER:
The inside surface of the oven
may be hot when the door is opened.
Do not store or use combustible materials,
gasoline or other flammable vapors and
liquids in the vicinity of this or any other
appliance.
Keep the hood and grease filters clean
to maintain good venting and to avoid
grease fires.
WARNING!
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
COOK MEAT AND POULTRY THOROUGHLY…
Cook meat and poultry thoroughly—meat to at least an INTERNAL temperature of 160°F. and poultry to at least an
INTERNAL temperature of 180°F. Cooking to these temperatures usually protects against foodborne illness.
Stand away from the range when opening the
oven door. Hot air or steam which escapes
can cause burns to hands, face and/or eyes.
Do not heat unopened food containers.
Pressure could build up and the container
could burst, causing an injury.
Keep the oven vent unobstructed.
Keep the oven free from grease buildup.
Place the oven shelf in the desired position
while the oven is cool. If shelves must be
handled when hot, do not let pot holder
contact the heating elements.
Pulling out the shelf to the stop-lock is a
convenience in lifting heavy foods. It is also a
precaution against burns from touching hot
surfaces of the door or oven walls.
When using cooking or roasting bags in the
oven, follow the manufacturer’s directions.
Do not use the oven to dry newspapers. If
overheated, they can catch on fire.
Do not use the oven for a storage area. Items
stored in an oven can ignite.
Do not leave paper products, cooking
utensils or food in the oven when not in use.

Use proper pan size—select cookware having flat bottoms large enough to cover the surface unit
heating element. The use of undersized cookware will expose a portion of the surface unit to direct
contact and may result in ignition of clothing. Proper relationship of cookware to surface unit will also
improve efficiency.
Never leave the surface units unattended at
high heat settings. Boilovers cause smoking
and greasy spillovers that may catch on fire.
Do not use aluminum foil to line the drip
pans or anywhere in the oven except as
described in this manual. Misuse could
result in a shock, fire hazard or damage
to the range.
Be sure the drip pans and the vent duct are
not covered and are in place. Their absence
during cooking could damage range parts
and wiring.
Only certain types of glass, glass ⁄ceramic,
earthenware or other glazed containers are
suitable for cooktop service; others may
break because of the sudden change in
temperature.
To minimize the possibility of burns, ignition
of flammable materials and spillage, the
handle of a container should be turned
toward the center of the range without
extending over nearby surface units.
Always turn the surface units off before
removing cookware.
Do not immerse or soak the removable
surface units. Do not put them in a
dishwasher. Do not self-clean the surface
units in the oven.
When preparing flaming foods under the
hood, turn the fan on.
To avoid the possibility of a burn or electric
shock, always be certain that the controls for
all surface units are at the
OFF
position and
all coils are cool before attempting to lift or
remove a unit.
Clean the cooktop with caution. If a wet
sponge is used to wipe spills on a hot
cooktop, be careful to avoid steam burns.
Keep an eye on foods being fried at high or
medium high heat settings.
Foods for frying should be as dry as possible.
Frost on frozen foods or moisture on fresh
foods can cause hot fat to bubble up and over
the sides of the pan.
Use little fat for effective shallow or deep fat
frying. Filling the pan too full of fat can cause
spillovers when food is added.
If a combination of oils or fats will be used in
frying, stir together before heating, or as fats
melt slowly.
Always heat fat slowly, and watch as it heats.
Use a deep fat thermometer whenever
possible to prevent overheating fat beyond
the smoking point.

Surface Cookware Tips
(on some models)
Use medium- or heavy-weight cookware.
Aluminum cookware conducts heat faster
than other metals. Cast-iron and coated
cast-iron cookware are slow to absorb heat,
but generally cook evenly at low to medium
heat settings. Steel pans may cook unevenly
if not combined with other metals.
For best cooking results, pans should be flat
on the bottom. Match the size of the
saucepan to the size of the surface unit. The
pan should not extend over the edge of the
surface unit more than 1 inch.
Not over 1 inch
1
Wok Cooking
(on some models)
We recommend that you use only a flat-bottomed
wok. They are available at your local retail store.
Do not use woks that have support rings.
Use of these types of woks, with or without
the ring in place, can be dangerous.
Placing the ring over the surface unit will
cause a build-up of heat that will damage
the porcelain cooktop. Do not try to use
such woks without the ring. You could be
seriously burned if the wok tipped over.
Use only flat-bottomed woks.

Using the oven.
To avoid possible burns, place the shelves in the desired position before you turn the oven on.
Before you begin…
The shelves have stop-locks, so that when
placed correctly on the supports, they will
stop before coming completely out, and will
not tilt.
When placing and removing cookware,
pull the shelf out to the bump on the shelf
support.
To remove a shelf,
pull it toward you, tilt the
front end up and pull it out.
To replace,
place the end of the shelf (stop-
locks) on the support, tilt up the front and
push the shelf in.
The oven has 6 shelf positions.
How to Set the Oven for Baking or Roasting
Turn the Oven Temperature knob to
the temperature you desire.
Check food for doneness at minimum
time on recipe. Cook longer if
necessary.
Turn the Oven Temperature knob to

Turn this knob to the setting you want.
The oven cycling light glows until the oven reaches your
selected temperature, then goes off and on with the oven
element(s) during cooking.
Preheating and Pan Placement
Preheat the oven if the recipe calls for it.
To preheat, set the oven at the correct
temperature. Preheating is necessary for
good results when baking cakes, cookies,
pastry and breads.
For ovens without a preheat indicator light or tone,
preheat 10 minutes.
Baking results will be better if baking pans
are centered in the oven as much as
possible. Pans should not touch each other
or the walls of the oven. If you need to use
two shelves, stagger the pans so one is not
directly above the other, and leave
approximately 3.81 cm (1

Aluminum Foil
Never entirely cover a shelf with aluminum
foil. This will disturb the heat circulation
and result in poor baking.
You can use aluminum foil to line the
broiler pan and broiler grid. However, you
must mold the foil tightly to the grid and cut
slits in it just like the grid.
How to Set the Oven for Broiling
Place the meat or fish on the broiler
grid in the broiler pan.
Follow suggested shelf positions in the
Broiling guide.
Turn the Oven Temperature knob to
BROIL.
Leave the door open to the broil
stop position. The door stays open
by itself, yet the proper temperature
is maintained in the oven.

Adjust the oven thermostat—Do it yourself!
Operating Instructions
Safety InstructionsCare and CleaningInstallation InstructionsTroubleshooting Tips
You may find that your new oven cooks differently than the one it replaced. Use your new oven for a few weeks to
become more familiar with it. If you still think your new oven is too hot or too cold, you can adjust the thermostat yourself.
Do not use thermometers, such as those found in grocery stores, to check the temperature setting of your oven. These thermometers may vary
11–22°C. (20–40°F).
The type of margarine will affect baking performance!
Most recipes for baking have been developed using high fat products such as butter or margarine (80% fat). If you
decrease the fat, the recipe may not give the same results as with a higher fat product.
Recipe failure can result if cakes, pies, pastries, cookies or candies are made with low fat spreads. The lower the fat content of a spread product,
the more noticeable these differences become.
Federal standards require products labeled “margarine” to contain at least 80% fat by weight. Low fat spreads, on the other
hand, contain less fat and more water. The high moisture content of these spreads affects the texture and flavor of baked
goods. For best results with your old favorite recipes, use margarine, butter or stick spreads containing at least 70%
vegetable oil.

Control Panel and Knobs
Clean up spatters with a damp cloth.
Remove heavier soil with warm, soapy water.
Do not use abrasives of any kind on the control panel.
The control knobs may be removed for
easier cleaning. To remove a knob, pull it
straight off the stem. Wash the knobs in
soap and water but do not soak.
Pull the knob straight off the stem.
Oven Vent
(on some models)
The oven is vented through an opening
under the right rear surface unit.
Never cover the opening with aluminum foil
or any other material.
Coil models oven vent location.
If your range is removed for cleaning, servicing or any reason, be sure the anti-tip
device is re-engaged properly when the range is replaced. Failure to take this
precaution could result in tipping of the range and cause injury.
Painted Surfaces
Painted surfaces include the sides of the
range and sides of the door trim.
Clean these with soap and water or a vinegar
and water solution.
Do not use commercial oven cleaners,
cleaning powders, steel wool or harsh
abrasives on any painted surface.
Porcelain Oven Interior
(for standard clean models only)
With proper care, the porcelain enamel
finish on the inside of the oven—top,
bottom, sides, back and inside of the door—
will stay new-looking for years.
Let the range cool before cleaning. We
recommend that you wear rubber gloves
when cleaning the range.
Soap and water will normally do the job.
Heavy spattering or spillovers may require
cleaning with a mild abrasive cleaner.
Soapy, wet metal pads may also be used.
Do not allow food spills with a high sugar or acid
content (such as milk, tomatoes, sauerkraut, fruit
juices or pie filling) to remain on the surface. They
may cause a dull spot even after cleaning.
Household ammonia may make the
cleaning job easier. Place
1/2 cup in a shallow glass or pottery
container in a cold oven overnight. The
ammonia fumes will help loosen the
burned-on grease and food.
If necessary, you may use an oven cleaner.
Follow the package directions.
Do not spray oven cleaner on the electrical
controls and switches because it could
cause a short circuit and result in sparking
or fire.
Do not allow a film from the cleaner to
build up on the temperature sensor—it
could cause the oven to heat improperly.
(The sensor is located at the top of the
oven.) Carefully wipe the sensor clean
after each oven cleaning, being careful not
to move the sensor as a change in its
position could affect how the oven bakes.
Do not spray any oven cleaner on the oven
door, handles or any exterior surface of the
oven, cabinets or painted surfaces. The
cleaner can damage these surfaces.
Porcelain Enamel Cooktop
The porcelain enamel finish is sturdy but
breakable if misused. This finish is acid-
resistant. However, any acidic foods spilled
(such as fruit juices, tomato or vinegar)
should not be permitted to remain on
the finish.
If acids spill on the cooktop while it is hot,
use a dry paper towel or cloth to wipe it up
right away. When the surface has cooled,
wash with soap and water. Rinse well.
For other spills such as fat spatterings, wash
with soap and water or cleansing powders
after the surface has cooled. Rinse well.
Polish with a dry cloth.

To clean the inside of the door:
(on standard clean models)
Soap and water will normally do the
job. Heavy spattering or spillovers may
require cleaning with a mild abrasive
cleaner. Soapy, wet metal pads may also
be used.
Do not allow food spills with a high sugar or acid
content (such as milk, tomatoes, sauerkraut, fruit
juices or pie filling) to remain on the surface. They
may cause a dull spot even after cleaning.
If necessary, you may use an oven cleaner.
Follow the package directions.
Clean the inside of the oven window with
a mild non-scratching cleaner and a
damp cloth.
To clean the outside of the door:
Use soap and water to thoroughly clean
the top, sides and front of the oven door.
Rinse well. You may also use a glass
cleaner to clean the glass on the outside
of the door. Do not let water drip into the
vent openings.
Spillage of marinades, fruit juices, tomato
sauces and basting materials containing
acids may cause discoloration and should
be wiped up immediately. When surface
is cool, clean and rinse.
Do not use oven cleaners, cleaning
powders or harsh abrasives on the
outside of the door.
Lift the door straight up and off the
hinges.
The gasket is designed with a gap
at the bottom to allow for proper air
circulation.
Do not rub or clean the door
gasket—it has an extremely low
resistance to abrasion.
If you notice the gasket becoming
worn, frayed or damaged in any
way or if it has become displaced
on the door, you should have it
replaced.
Glass Window
(on some models)
To clean the outside glass finish, use a glass
cleaner. Rinse and polish with a dry cloth.
Oven Heating Elements
Do not clean the bake element or the broil element.
Any soil will burn off when the elements are heated.
To clean the oven floor, gently lift the bake
element. Clean with warm soapy water.
Oven Light Replacement
(on some models)
CAUTION: Before replacing your oven light
bulb, disconnect the electrical power to
the range at the main fuse or circuit
breaker panel.
Be sure to let the light cover and bulb cool
completely.
To remove the cover:
Hold a hand under the cover so it
doesn’t fall when released. With fingers
of the same hand, firmly push back the
wire cover holder. Lift off the cover.
Do not remove any screws to remove the cover.
Replace bulb with a 40-watt household
appliance bulb.
To replace the cover:

place.
Connect electrical power to the range.
Broiler Pan & Grid
After broiling, remove the broiler pan from
the oven. Remove the grid from the pan.
Carefully pour out the grease from the pan
into a proper container.
Wash and rinse the broiler pan and grid in
hot water with a soap-filled or plastic
scouring pad.
If food has burned on, sprinkle the grid
with detergent while hot and cover with wet
paper towels or a dishcloth. Soaking the pan
will remove burned-on foods.
The broiler pan may be cleaned with a
commercial oven cleaner. If the grid is grey
enamel, it can also be cleaned with an oven
cleaner. If the grid is chrome, do not use an
oven cleaner to clean it.
Both the broiler pan and grid can also be
cleaned in the dishwasher.
Do not store a soiled broiler pan and grid anywhere
in the range.
After broiling, remove the broiler
pan from the oven.

Be sure the controls are turned to OFF and the surface units are cool before attempting to remove them.
Surface Units
(on some models)
To clean the surface units, turn the control
to the highest setting for a minute. The coils
will burn off any soil.
To remove a surface unit:
To remove the drip pans for cleaning, the
surface units must be removed first.
Lift the surface unit about 2.5 cm (1 inch)
above the drip pan and pull it out.
Do not lift the surface unit more than 2.5 cm (1 inch).
If you do, it may not lie flat on the drip pan when
you plug it back in.
Repeated lifting of the surface unit more
than 2.5 cm (1 inch) above the drip pan can
permanently damage the receptacle.
To replace a surface unit:
Replace the drip pan into the recess in the
cooktop. Make sure the opening in the pan
lines up with the receptacle.
Insert the terminals of the surface unit
through the opening in the drip pan and
into the receptacle.
Guide the surface unit into place so it rests
evenly.
Do not immerse the surface units in liquids
of any kind.
Do not clean the surface units in a
dishwasher.
Do not bend the surface unit plug
terminals.
Do not attempt to clean, adjust or in any
way repair the plug-in receptacle.
Drip Pans
(on some models)
Remove the surface units. Then lift out the
drip pans.
For best results, clean the drip pans by
hand. Place them in a covered container (or
a plastic bag) with 60 ml (1/4) cup ammonia
to loosen the soil. Then scrub with a soap-
filled scouring pad if necessary. Rinse with
clean water and polish with a clean soft cloth.
The drip pans may also be cleaned in the
dishwasher.
Clean the area under the drip pans often.
Built-up soil, especially grease, may catch
fire.
Do not cover the drip pans with foil. Using foil so
close to the receptacle could cause shock, fire or
damage to the range.
Lift-Up Cooktop
(on some models)
Some models have a cooktop that can be
lifted up for easier cleaning. The entire
cooktop may be lifted up and supported in
the up position.
The surface units do not need to be
removed; however, you may remove one to
make raising the cooktop easier. There are
two side supports that lock into position
when the cooktop is lifted up.
After cleaning under the cooktop with hot,
mild soapy water and a clean cloth, lower

Preparing the Opening
Allow 3.81 cm (1
1
2) spacing from the range to
adjacent vertical walls above cooktop surface.
Allow 76.2 cm (30) minimum clearance between
surface units and bottom of unprotected wood or
metal top cabinet, and 38.1 cm (15) minimum
between countertop and adjacent cabinet bottom.
EXCEPTION: Installation of a listed microwave oven or
cooking appliance over the cooktop shall conform to the
installation instructions packed with that appliance.
If cabinet storage is installed, reduce risk by
installing a range hood that projects horizontally a
min. of 12.7 cm (5) beyond the bottom of the
cabinets. Make sure the wall covering, countertops
and cabinets around the range can withstand heat
generated by the range, oven or cooktop up to
93°C. (200°F.).

Read these instructions completely and carefully.
Flooring Under the Range
Your range, like many other household items, is heavy and can
settle into soft floor coverings such as cushioned vinyl or
carpeting.
When moving the range on this type of flooring, it
should be installed on a 6 mm (1/4) thick sheet of
plywood (or similar material) as follows:
When the floor covering ends at the front of the
range, the area that the range will rest on should be
built up with plywood to the same level or higher
than the floor covering. This will allow the range to
be moved for cleaning or servicing.
Prepare for Electrical Connection
Use a certified range power cord. Such a cord will be
marked with a symbol of certification. If you are
unsure about the certification of your range power
cord, please consult with your local electrical parts
distributor and obtain one or have a licensed
electrician install your range. Finally, you may have
to purchase a separate strain relief if your cord is not
accompanied by one.
A range cord rated for 40A usage is recommended.
The cord must also have a minimum 250V rating. A
50A cord is not recommended but, if used, it should
be marked for use with nominal 3.49 cm (1
3
8)
diameter connection openings. Care should be
taken to center cable and strain relief (discussed in
Step 3) within knockout hole to keep cable from
rubbing the edge.
Power Cord Strain Relief Installation
Remove the lower rear range wiring cover to
expose the connector block and bracket.
Remove the knockout ring 3.49 cm (1
3
8)
located on bracket directly below the
connector. To remove the knockout, use a pair
of pliers to bend the knockout ring away from
the bracket and twist until ring is removed.
Assemble the strain relief in the hole. Insert the
power cord through the strain relief and
tighten. Allow enough slack to easily attach the
cord terminals to the connector block. If tabs
are present at the end of the winged strain
relief, they can be removed for better fit.
NOTE: Do not install the power cord without a strain
relief. The strain relief bracket should be installed before
reinstalling the rear range wiring cover.
Use ring terminals which have screw hole openings
of sufficient size for the terminal screws and ground
screw to be used in Step 4. The above illustration
depicts a power cord with “ring” terminals on the
ends of the power cord leads.
This is a close-up view of a “ring”
terminal. The ring terminal
shown in this close-up illustration
is the “closed barrel” type. We
recommend use of the “closed
barrel” type with a large enough
“barrel” to accommodate the
cord leads. Proper crimping force
should be applied to connect
stranded wires to the ring
terminals.
NOTE: If your range power
cord is “stranded” and is not
terminated with ring terminals,
you MUST attach the above
terminals to the cord leads. A
“stranded” power cable is one
with many thin wires twisted
together as shown in this
illustration.
