WARNING

Read all safety instructions before using the product. Failure to follow these instructions may result in fire, electric shock, serious injury or death.

ANTI-TIP DEVICE

WARNING

Tip-Over Hazard

A child or adult can tip the range and be killed.

Verify the anti-tip bracket has been properly installed and engaged.

Ensure the anti-tip bracket is re-engaged when the range is moved.

Do not operate the range without the anti-tip bracket in place and engaged.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in death or serious burns to children or adults.

To reduce the risk of tipping the range, the range must be secured by a properly installed anti-tip bracket. See installation instructions shipped with the bracket for complete details before attempting to install.

For Freestanding Ranges

To check if the bracket is installed and engaged properly, look underneath the range to see that the anti-tip arm attached to the

Rear Wall Adjacent cabinet or final location of right range side panel

Right Side Panel Rear Wall

side panel is engaged in the bracket. On some models, the storage drawer or kick panel can be removed for easier inspection. If visual inspection is not possible, slide the range forward, confirm the anti-tip bracket is securely attached to the floor or wall, and slide the range back so the anti-tip arm slides just under the anti-tip bracket. If the range is pulled from the wall for any reason, always repeat this procedure to verify the range is properly secured by the anti-tip bracket.

If you did not receive an anti-tip bracket with your purchase, call 1.800.626.8774 to receive one at no cost (in Canada, call 1.800.561.3344). For installation instructions of the bracket, visit GEAppliances.com (in Canada, GEAppliances.ca).

WARNING

IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE

The California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act requires the Governor of California to publish a list of substances known to the state to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm, and requires businesses to warn customers of potential exposure to such substances.

The fiberglass insulation in self-clean ovens gives off a very small amount of carbon monoxide during the cleaning cycle. Exposure can be minimized by venting with an open window or using a ventilation fan or hood.

WARNING

GENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Use this appliance for its intended purpose as described in this Owner's Manual.
- Be sure your appliance is properly installed and grounded by a qualified installer 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, unplug the range or disconnect the 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 climb, sit or stand on any part of the appliance.
■ CAUTION: Do not store items of interest to children above a range or on the backguard of a range—children climbing on the range to reach items could be seriously injured.
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 in place of pot holders.
- Never use your appliance for warming or heating the room.

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. Other surfaces of the appliance may become hot enough to cause burns. Potentially hot surfaces include the cooktop, areas facing the cooktop, oven vent opening, surfaces near the opening and crevices around the oven door.
Do not heat unopened food containers. Pressure could build up and the container could burst, causing an injury.
Do not use aluminum foil to line drip pans or anywhere in the oven, except as described in this manual. Foil can trap heat or melt, resulting in damage to the product and a shock or fire hazard.
Avoid scratching or impacting glass doors, cook tops or control panels. Doing so may lead to glass breakage. Do not cook on a product with broken glass. Shock, fire or cuts may occur.
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.

WARNING

KEEP FLAMMABLE MATERIALS AWAY FROM THE RANGE

Do not store or use flammable materials in an oven or near the cooktop, including paper, plastic, pot holders, linens, wall coverings, curtains, drapes and gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids.
- Never wear loose-fitting or hanging garments while using the appliance. These garments may ignite if they contact hot surfaces causing severe burns.

Do not let cooking grease or other flammable materials accumulate in or near the range. Grease in the oven or on the cooktop may ignite.
- Clean ventilating hoods frequently. Grease should not be allowed to accumulate on the hood or filter.

WARNING

IN THE EVENT OF A FIRE, TAKE THE FOLLOWING STEPS TO PREVENT THE FIRE FROM SPREADING:

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.
If there is a fire in the oven during baking, smother the fire by closing the oven door and turning the oven off or by using a multi-purpose dry chemical or foam-type fire extinguisher.

If there is a fire in the oven during self-clean, turn the oven off and wait for the fire to go out. Do not force the door open. Introduction of fresh air at self-clean temperatures may lead to a burst of flame from the oven. Failure to follow this instruction may result in severe burns.

WARNING

COOKTOP SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Never leave the surface units unattended at medium or high heat settings. Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers that may catch on fire.
Never leave oil unattended while frying. If allowed to heat beyond its smoking point, oil may ignite resulting in fire that may spread to surrounding cabinets. Use a deep fat thermometer whenever possible to monitor oil temperature.
To avoid oil spillover and fire, use a minimum amount of oil when shallow pan-frying and avoid cooking frozen foods with excessive amounts of ice.
Use proper pan size—select cookware having flat bottoms large enough to cover the surface 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.

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.
- When preparing flaming foods under a hood, turn the fan on.
If power is lost to an electric cooktop while a surface unit is ON, the surface unit will turn back ON as soon as power is restored. In the event of power loss, failure to turn all surface unit knobs to the OFF position may result in ignition of items on or near the cooktop, leading to serious injury or death.

WARNING

RADIANT COOKTOP SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS (Some models)

Use care when touching the cooktop. The glass surface of the cooktop will retain heat after the controls have been turned off.
Do not cook on a broken cooktop. If glass cooktop should break, cleaning solutions and spillovers may penetrate the broken cooktop and create a risk of electric shock. Contact a qualified technician immediately.
Avoid scratching the glass cooktop. The cooktop can be scratched with items such as knives, sharp instruments, rings or other jewelry, and rivets on clothing.
Do not place or store items that can melt or catch fire on the glass cooktop, even when it is not being used. If the cooktop is inadvertently turned on, they may ignite. Heat from the cooktop or oven vent after it is turned off may cause them to ignite also.

Use CERAMA BRYTE® ceramic Cooktop Cleaner and CERAMA BRYTE® Cleaning Pad to clean the cooktop. Wait until the cooktop cools and the indicator light goes out before cleaning. A wet sponge or cloth on a hot surface can cause steam burns. Some cleaners can produce noxious fumes if applied to a hot surface. Note: Sugar spills are an exception. They should be scraped off while still hot using an oven mitt and a scraper. See the Cleaning the glass cooktop section for detailed instructions.
Read and follow all instructions and warnings on the cleaning cream label.

WARNING

COIL COOKTOP SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS (Some models)

Do not immerse or soak the removable surface units. Do not put them in a dishwasher. Do not self-clean the surface units in an oven. Doing so may cause them to fail presenting a burn or fire hazard.
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 coil surface unit.

• Be sure the drip pans are not covered and are in place. Their absence during cooking could damage range parts and wiring.
  Do not use aluminum foil to line drip pans. Foil can trap heat or melt, resulting in damage to the product and a shock or fire hazard.

WARNING

OVEN SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

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.
- Keep the oven vent unobstructed.
- Keep the oven free from grease buildup. Grease in the oven may ignite.
Place oven racks in desired location while oven is cool. If rack must be moved while oven is hot, do not let pot holder contact hot heating element in oven.
- When using cooking or roasting bags in the oven, follow the manufacturer's directions.

Pull the oven rack to the stop-lock position when loading and unloading food from the oven. This helps prevent burns from touching hot surfaces of the door and oven walls.
Do not leave items such as paper, cooking utensils or food in the oven when not in use. Items stored in an oven can ignite.
Do not use aluminum foil to line the oven bottom. Foil can trap heat or melt, resulting in damage to the product and a shock or fire hazard.

WARNING

SELF-CLEANING OVEN SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

(Some models)

The self-cleaning feature operates the oven at temperatures high enough to burn away food soils in the oven. Follow these instructions for safe operation.

Before operating the self-clean cycle, remove pans, shiny metal oven racks and other utensils from the oven. Only gray or black porcelain-coated oven racks and drip pans may be left in the oven. Do not use self-clean to clean other parts, such as shiny drip pans or bowls.
Before operating the self-clean cycle, wipe grease and food soils from the oven. Excessive amount of grease may ignite leading to smoke damage to your home.

If the self-cleaning mode malfunctions, turn the oven off and disconnect the power supply. Have it serviced by a qualified technician.
Do not clean the door gasket. The door gasket is essential for a good seal. Care should be taken not to rub, damage or move the gasket.
Do not use oven cleaners. No commercial oven cleaner or oven liner protective coating of any kind should be used in or around any part of the oven.

WARNING

WARMING DRAWER/LOWER OVEN DRAWER SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS (Some models)

The purpose of the warming drawer is to hold hot cooked foods at serving temperature. Bacteria will grow in food while it is below 140°F. Do not put cold food in warming drawer. Do not heat food for more than 2 hours. Failure to follow these instructions may result in foodborne illness.
Do not leave paper products, plastics, canned food or combustible materials in the drawer. They may ignite.
Do not touch the heating element or the interior surface of the drawer. These surfaces may be hot enough to cause burns.

Use care when opening the drawer. Open the drawer a crack and let hot air or steam escape before removing or replacing food. Hot air or steam that escapes can cause burns to hands, face and/or eyes.
Do not use aluminum foil to line the lower drawer. The foil will trap heat below, and upset the performance of the oven. Foil can melt and permanently damage the drawer bottoms.

READ AND FOLLOW THIS SAFETY INFORMATION CAREFULLY.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

Throughout this manual, features and appearance may vary from your model.

Surface Cooking Controls

Your surface units and controls are designed to give you a variety of heat settings for surface unit cooking.

At both LO and HI positions, there is a slight niche so control clicks at those positions; HI marks the highest setting; LO, the lowest setting.

In a quiet kitchen, you may hear slight clicking sounds during cooking, indicating heat settings selected are being maintained.

Switching heats to higher settings always shows a quicker change in temperature than switching to lower settings.

Hand holding a small object with arrows indicating direction (no text or symbols)

How to Set the Controls

Push the control knob in.

Turn either clockwise or counterclockwise to desired heat setting.

Control must be pushed in to set only from the OFF position.

When control is in any position other than OFF, you can turn it without pushing in.

Be sure you turn control to OFF when you finish cooking. An indicator light will glow when ANY surface unit is on.

OFF LO HI 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 Medium low Medium high

Heat Setting Guide

HI - Quick start for cooking; bring water to boil.

MEDIUM HIGH – Fast fry, pan broil; maintain fast boil on large amount of food.

MED – Saute and brown; maintain slow boil on large amount of food.

MEDIUM LOW – Cereal; maintain serving temperature of most foods.

LO - Cook after starting at HI; cook with little water in covered pan. Use to steam rice.

NOTE:

At HI or MEDIUM HIGH, never leave food unattended. Boilovers cause smoking; greasy spillovers may catch fire.

At LO, melt chocolate, butter on small unit.

Cooking Tips

■ Use medium- or heavyweight cookware. Aluminum cookware conducts heat faster than other metals. Cast-iron and coated cast-iron cookware is slow to absorb heat, but generally cooks evenly at low or medium heat settings. Steel pans may cook unevenly if not combined with other metals.

■ Do not overfill cookware with fat that may spill over when adding food. Frosty foods bubble vigorously. Watch foods frying at high temperatures. Keep range and hood clean from accumulated grease.

To conserve the most cooking energy, pans should be flat on the bottom, have straight sides and tight-fitting lids. Match the size of the saucepan to the size of the surface unit. A pan that extends more than an inch beyond the edge of the drip pan traps heat, which causes "crazing" (fine hairline cracks) on porcelain, and discoloration ranging from blue to dark gray on chrome drip pans.

Throughout this manual, features and appearance may vary from your model.

Indicator Lights (on radiant glass models only)

A Hot indicator light will glow when any radiant element is hot and will remain on (even after the unit is turned off) until the surface is cool enough to touch.

A Burner On indicator light will glow when any surface unit is on.

Using the radiant surface units. (on some models)

Never cook directly on the glass. Always use cookware.

OFF CENTER

Always place the pan in the center of the surface unit you are cooking on.

DRAGGING

About the radiant surface units...

The radiant cooktop features heating units beneath a smooth glass surface.

NOTE: A slight odor is normal when a new cooktop is used for the first time. It is caused by the heating of new parts and insulating materials and will disappear in a short time.

The surface unit will cycle on and off to maintain your selected control setting. It is safe to place hot cookware on the glass surface even when the cooktop is cool.

Even after the surface units are turned off, the glass cooktop retains enough heat to continue cooking. To avoid overcooking, remove pans from the surface units when the food is cooked. Avoid placing anything on the surface unit until it has cooled completely.

Do not slide cookware across the cooktop because it can scratch the glass—the glass is scratch-resistant, not scratchproof.

Water stains (mineral deposits) are removable using the cleaning cream or full-strength white vinegar.
Use of window cleaner may leave an iridescent film on the cooktop. The cleaning cream will remove this discoloration.
- Don't store heavy items above the cooktop. If they drop onto the cooktop, they can cause damage.
Do not use the surface as a cutting board.

Temperature Limiter

Every radiant surface unit has a temperature limiter.

The temperature limiter protects the glass cooktop from getting too hot.

The temperature limiter may cycle the units off for a time if:

the pan boils dry.
■ the pan bottom is not flat.
■ the pan is off-center.
■ there is no pan on the unit.

The following information will help you choose cookware which will give good performance on glass cooktops.

Simple line drawing of a hand holding a ruler above a blank rectangular object (no text or symbols)

Check pans for flat bottoms by using a straight edge.

Stainless Steel:

recommended

Porcelain Enamel on Cast Iron:

recommended if bottom of pan is coated

Aluminum:

heavy weight recommended

Good conductivity. Aluminum residues sometimes appear as scratches on the cooktop but can be removed if cleaned immediately. Because of its low melting point, thin weight aluminum should not be used.

Porcelain Enamel on Steel:

not recommended

Heating empty pans can cause permanent damage to cooktop glass. The enamel can melt and bond to the ceramic cooktop.

Three identical pictograms showing a cooking pot with crossed X marks, likely indicating prohibition or resistance.

Pans with rounded, curved, ridged or warped bottoms are not recommended.

Copper Bottom:

recommended

Copper may leave residues which can appear as scratches. The residues can be removed, as long as the cooktop is cleaned immediately. However, do not let these pots boil dry. Overheated metal can bond to glass cooktops. An overheated copper bottom pot will leave a residue that will permanently stain the cooktop if not removed immediately.

Glass-ceramic:

not recommended

Poor performance. Will scratch the surface.

Stoneware:

not recommended

Poor performance. May scratch the surface.

Cast Iron:

not recommended - unless designed specifically for glass cooktops

Poor conductivity and slow to absorb heat. Will scratch the cooktop surface.

NOTE: Follow all cookware manufacturer's recommendations when using any type of cookware on the ceramic cooktop.

Do not place wet pans on the glass cooktop. Do not use woks with support rings on the glass cooktop. Use flat bottomed woks on the glass cooktop.

For Best Results

Place only dry pans on the surface elements. Do not place lids on the surface elements, particularly wet lids
Do not use woks that have support rings. This type of wok will not heat on glass surface elements.
We recommend that you use only a flat-bottomed wok. They are available at your local retail store. The bottom of the wok should have the same diameter as the surface element to ensure proper contact.
Some special cooking procedures require specific cookware such as pressure cookers or deep-fat fryers. All cookware must have flat bottoms and be the correct size.

How to Set the Oven for Baking

1 Touch the Bake pad.
2 Touch the + or - pads to set the desired temperature.
3 Touch the Start pad.

4 Check food for doneness at minimum time on recipe. Cook longer if necessary.
5 Touch the Clear/Off pad when cooking is complete.

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, pastries and breads.

For ovens without a preheat indicator light or tone, preheat 10 minutes.

Baking results will be better if the food is centered in the oven as much as possible. Angel Pans should not touch each other or the walls of the oven. If you need to use two racks, stagger the pans so one is not directly above the other. Leave approximately 1 1/2" between pans and from the front, back and sides of oven wall.

Aluminum Foil

Do not use aluminum foil to line oven bottoms. The foil will trap heat below, and upset the performance of the oven. Foil can melt and permanently damage the oven bottom. Damage from improper use of aluminum foil is not covered by the product warranty.

Foil may be used to catch spills by placing a sheet on a lower rack, several inches below the food. Do not use more foil than necessary, and never entirely cover an oven rack with aluminum foil. Keep foil at least 1 1/2" from the oven walls to prevent poor heat circulation.

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.

Using the self-cleaning oven. (on some models)

Wipe up heavy soil on the oven bottom.

Before a Clean Cycle

The oven must be cool in order to set the self-clean cycle.

We recommend venting your kitchen with an open window or using a ventilation fan or hood during the first self-clean cycle.

Remove broiler pan, broiler grid, all cookware and any aluminum foil from the oven.

The shiny, silver-colored oven racks (on some models) can be self-cleaned, but they will darken, lose their luster and become hard to slide.

Do not use abrasives or oven cleaners. Clean the top, sides and outside of the oven door with soap and water.

Make sure the oven light bulb cover (on some models) is in place and the oven light is off.

IMPORTANT: The health of some birds is extremely sensitive to the fumes given off during the self-cleaning cycle of any oven. Move birds to another well-ventilated room.

SELF CLEAN + - START

How to Set the Oven for Cleaning

1 Touch the Self Clean pad.

2 Using the + or - pad, enter the desired clean time, if a time other than 4 hours is needed.

Clean cycle time is normally 4 hours You can change the clean time to any time between 2.5 and 5 hours, depending on how dirty your oven is.

3 Touch the Start pad.

The door locks automatically. The display will show the clean time remaining. It will not be possible to open the oven door until the temperature drops below the lock temperature and the Locked Door light goes off.

The words Lock Door will flash and the oven control will signal if you set the clean cycle and forget to close the oven door.

To stop a clean cycle, touch the Clear/Off pad. When the Locked Door light goes off indicating the oven has cooled below the locking temperature, open the door.

NOTE: For heavily soiled ovens use maximum self clean cycle time (5 hours).

The oven door must be closed and all controls must be set correctly for the cycle to work properly.

SELF CLEAN + - DELAY START + - START

How to Delay the Start of Cleaning

1 Touch the Self Clean pad.
2 Using the + or - pads, enter the desired clean time.
3 Touch the Delay Start pad.
4 Using the + or - pad, enter the time of day you want the clean cycle to start.
5 Touch the Start pad.

The door locks automatically. The display will show the start time. It will not be possible to open the oven door until the temperature drops below the lock temperature and the Locked Door light goes off.

When the Locked Door light goes off, open the door.

After a Clean Cycle

You may notice some white ash in the oven. Wipe it up with a damp cloth after the oven cools.

If white spots remain, remove them with a soap-filled steel wool pad and rinse thoroughly with a vinegar and water mixture.

These deposits are usually a salt residue that cannot be removed by the clean cycle.

If the oven is not clean after one clean cycle, repeat the cycle.

You cannot set the oven for cooking until the oven is cool enough for the door to unlock.
Apply a small amount of vegetable oil to a paper towel and wipe the edges of the oven racks with the paper towel. Do not spray with Pam® or other lubricant sprays.

Care and cleaning of the range.

Be sure electrical power is off and all surfaces are cool before cleaning any part of the range.

WARNING

Tip-Over Hazard

A child or adult can tip the range and be killed.

Verify the anti-tip bracket has been properly installed and engaged.

Ensure the anti-tip bracket is re-engaged when the range is moved.

Do not operate the range without the anti-tip bracket in place and engaged.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in death or serious burns to children or adults.

Oven Interior (on standard-clean models)

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. Soap-filled scouring pads may also be used.

IMPORTANT: 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.

To clean the inside of the door:

• Do not allow excess water to run into any holes or slots in the door.
  Soap and water will normally do the job. Heavy spattering or spillovers may require cleaning with a mild abrasive cleaner. Soap-filled scouring 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.

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.

To clean the outside of the gasket

The gasket is designed with a gap at the bottom to allow for proper air circulation.

Because the area inside the gasket is cleaned during the self-clean cycle, you do not need to clean this by hand on self-clean models.

The area outside the gasket and the front frame can be cleaned with a soap-filled steel-wool pad, hot water and detergent. Rinse well with a vinegar and water solution.

Do not rub or clan 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.

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.

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.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS

ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS

⚠ WARNING: For personal safety, do not use an extension cord with this appliance. Remove house fuse or open circuit breaker before beginning installation.

This appliance must be supplied with the proper voltage and frequency, and connected to an individual properly grounded branch circuit, protected by a circuit breaker or fuse having amperage as specified on the rating plate. The rating plate is located above the storage drawer on the oven frame.

We recommend you have the electrical wiring and hookup of your range connected by a qualified electrician. After installation, have the electrician show you where your main range disconnect is located.

Check with your local utilities for electrical codes which apply in your area. Failure to wire your oven according to governing codes could result in a hazardous condition. If there are no local codes, your range must be wired and fused to meet the requirements of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA No. 70–Latest Edition. You can get a copy by writing:

National Fire Protection Association

Batterymarch Park

Quincy, MA 02269

Effective January 1, 1996, the National Electrical Code requires that new construction (not existing) utilize a 4-conductor connection to an electric range.

When installing an electric range in new construction, follow Steps 3 and 5 for 4-wire connection.

You must use a 3-wire, single-phase A.C. 208Y/120 Volt or 240/120 Volt, 60 hertz electrical system. If you connect to aluminum wiring, properly installed connectors approved for use with aluminum wiring must be used.

If the electrical service provided does not meet the above specifications, have a licensed electrician install an approved outlet.

NOTE: Use of automatic, wireless, or wired external switches that shut off power to the appliance, are not recommended for this product.

Use only a 3-conductor or a 4-conductor UL-listed range cord. These cords may be provided with ring terminals on wire and a strain relief device.

A range cord rated at 40 amps with 125/250 minimum volt range is required. A 50 amp range cord is not recommended but if used, it should be marked for use with nominal 1 ^3/8 " diameter connection openings. Care should be taken to center the cable and strain relief within the knockout hole to keep the edge from damaging the cable.

- Because range terminals are not accessible after range is in position, flexible service conduit or cord must be used.

NOTE: If conduit is being used, go to Step 3D and then to Step 6 or 7.

- On some models, a filter capacitor may be connected between the black and white leads on the junction block.

ALL NEW BRANCH CIRCUIT INSTALLATIONS, MOBILE HOMES, RECREATIONAL VEHICLES AND INSTALLATIONS WHERE LOCAL CODES DO NOT ALLOW GROUNDING THROUGH NEUTRAL, REQUIRE A 4-CONDUCTOR CORD OR CONDUIT

9 ANTI-TIP DEVICE INSTALLATION

WARNING

Tip-Over Hazard

• A child or adult can tip the range and be killed.
• Install the anti-tip bracket to the wall or floor.
- Engage the range to the anti-tip bracket by sliding the range back so the anti-tip arm slides under the anti-tip bracket.
• Re-engage the anti-tip bracket if the range is moved.
- Failure to do so can result in death or serious burns to children or adults.

To reduce the risk of tipping the range, the range must be secured by a properly installed anti-tip bracket. See installation instructions shipped with the bracket for complete details before attempting to install.

To check if the bracket is installed and engaged properly, look underneath the range to see that the anti-tip arm attached to the side panel is engaged in the bracket. On some models, the storage drawer or kick panel can be removed for easier inspection. If visual inspection is not possible, slide the range forward, confirm the anti-tip bracket is securely attached to the floor or wall, and slide the range back so the anti-tip arm slides just under the anti-tip bracket. If the range is pulled from the wall for any reason, always repeat this procedure to verify the range is properly secured by the anti-tip bracket.
