Your safety is important to us.

This guide contains safety statements under

warning symbols. Please pay special

attention to these symbols and follow any This symbol alerts you to such dangers

instructions given. Here is a brief explana- as fire, electrical shock, burns, and

tion of the use of the symbol. personal injury.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, injury to

persons, or damage when using the range, follow

basic precautions, including the following:

General

ORead all instructions before using

the range.

4nstall or locate the range only in

accordance with the provided

Installation Instructions. The

range must be installed by a

qualified installer. The range

must be properly connected to

electrical supply and grounded.

WARNING: To reduce the risk

of tipping the appliance, the

appliance must be secured by a

properly installed anti-tip bracket.

To check if the bracket is install-

ed properly, see “The anti-tip

bracket” on page 22.

*CAUTION: Do not store things

children might want above the

range. Children could be burned

or injured while climbing on it.

@Do not leave children alone or

unattended in area where the

range is in use. They should

never be allowed to sit or stand

on any part of the range. They

could be burned or injured.

.Do not operate the range if it is

damaged or not working properly.

@Do not use the range for warming

or heating the room. Persons

could be burned or injured, or a

fire could start.

*Use the range only for its intended

use as described in this manual.

@Do not touch surface units, areas

near units, heating elements, or

interior surfaces of oven. Surface

units and heating elements could

be hot even though they are dark

in color. Areas near surface units

and interior surfaces of an oven

become hot enough to cause

burns. During and after use, do

not touch or let clothing or other

flammable materials contact

surface units, areas near units,

heating elements, or interior sur-

faces of oven until they have had

sufficient time to cool. Other sur-

faces of the range, such as the

oven vent opening, the surface

near the vent opening, the

cooktop, and the oven door and

window, could also become hot

enough to cause burns.

‘\

*Do not wear loose or hanging

garments when using the range.

They could ignite if they touch a

hot surface unit and you could be

burned.

aUse only dry pot holders. Moist or

damp pot holders on hot surfaces

could result in burns from steam.

Do not let pot holder touch hot

heating elements. Do not use a

towel or bulky cloth for a pot

holder. It could catch on fire.

Keep range vents unobstructed.

~DO not heat unopened contain-

ers. They could explode. The hot

contents could cause burns and

container particles could cause

injury.

muse only utensils approved for

oven use. Follow utensil

manufacturer’s instructions,

especially when using glass or

plastic utensils.

ADO not store flammable materials

on or near the range. The fumes

could create an explosion and/or

fire hazard.

When

using

the cooktop

*Make sure the reflector bowls are

in place during cooking. Cooking

without reflector bowls could sub-

ject the wiring and components

underneath them to damage.

@Do not line reflector bowls with

aluminum foil or other liners. Im-

proper installation of these liners

could result in a risk of electric

shock or fire.

*Select a pan with a flat bottom that

is about the same size as the sur-

face unit. If pan is smaller than the

surface unit, some of the heating

element will be exposed and could

result in the igniting of clothing or

pot holders. Correct pan size also

improves cooking efficiency.

@Check to be sure glass cooking

utensils are safe for use on the

range. Only certain types of glass,

glass-ceramic, ceramic, earthen-

ware, or other glazed utensils are

suitable for cooktops without

breaking due to the sudden

change in temperature.

ONever leave surface units unat-

tended at high heat settings. A

boilover could result and cause

smoking and greasy spillovers

that could ignite.

over other surface units. This will

help reduce the chance of burns,

igniting of flammable materials,

and spills due to bumping of the

pan.

continued on next page

When using the oven

aAlways position oven rack(s) in

desired location while oven is

cool. If a rack must be removed

while oven is hot, do not let pot

holder contact hot heating eie-

ment in oven.

grease outside of pan can be

extinguished with baking soda or,

if available, a multipurpose dry

chemical or foam-type extin-

guisher.

Care and cleaning

@Do not soak removable heating

elements in water. The element

will be damaged and shock or fire

could result.

@Use care when opening oven

door. Let hot air or steam escape

before removing or replacing

food.

Grease

aGrease is flammable. Do not

allow grease to collect around

cooktop or in vents. Wipe

spillovers immediately.

@Do not use water on grease fires.

Never pick up a flaming pan.

Smother flaming pan on range

by covering with a well-fitted lid,

cookie sheet, or flat tray. Flaming

Do not clean door heat seal. It is

essential for a good seal. Care

should be taken not to rub, dam-

age, or move the seal. Clean only

parts recommended in this Use

Using Your Range

To obtain the best cooking results possible, you must operate your range properly. This

section gives you important information for efficient and safe use of your range.

Using the surface units

Push in &ntrol knobs before turning

them to a setting. You can set them any-

where between HI and OFF.

Surface unit markers

The solid dot in the Surface Unit Marker

shows which surface unit is

00 turned on by that knob.

Surface unit indicator lights

One of the Surface Unit Indicator Lights on

the control panel will glow when

a surface unit is on.

Until you get used to the settings, use the

following as a guide.

For best results, start

cooking at the high setting; then turn the

control knob down to continue cooking.

6-8

To hold a rapid boil.

To fry chicken or pancakes. I

For gravy, pudding, and

icing.

To cook large amounts of

veaetables.

Fire Hazard

Be sure all control knobs are turned to

OFF and all indicator lights are OFF

when you are not cooking.

A fire could start or someone could be

burned if a surface unit is accidentally

left ON.

Cookware tips

Select a pan

that is about the same size

as the surface unit.

NOTE: For best results and greater

energy efficiency,

use only flat-bottomed

cookware that makes good contact with

the surface units. Cookware with rounded,

warped, ribbed (such as some porcelain

enamelware), or dented bottoms could

cause severe overheating, which damages

the cookware and/or surface unit.

You can, however, use the newer

cookware available with slightly indented

bottoms or very small expansion channels.

This cookware is specially designed to

provide the good contact needed for best

cooking results.

Also, woks, canners, and teakettles with

flat bottoms suitable for use on your

cooktop are now available in most stores

that sell housewares.

The pan

should have straight sides and a

tight-fitting lid.

Choose medium to heavy gauge

(thick-

ness) pans that are fairly lightweight.

The pan material

(metal or glass) affects

how fast heat transfers from the surface

unit through the pan material and how

evenly heat spreads over the pan bottom.

Choose pans that provide the best

cooking results.

Handles

should be made of sturdy,

heat-resistant material and be securely

attached to the pan.

NOTES:

If a surface unit

stays red for a long time,

the bottom of the pan is not flat enough or

is too small for the surface unit. Prolonged

usage of incorrect utensils could result in

damage to the surface unit, cooktop,

wiring, and surrounding areas. To prevent

damage, use correct utensils, start

cooking on HI, and turn control down to

continue cooking.

Do not leave

an empty utensil, or one

which has boiled dry, on a hot surface

unit. The utensil could overheat and

damage the utensil or surface unit.

Home canning information

To protect your range:

Use flat-bottomed canners/pans

for best

results.

Use the largest surface unit

for best

results. Also, use a canner/pan which can

be centered over the surface unit and

which does not extend more than one inch

outside surface unit area. Large diameter

canners/pans, if not properly centered,

trap heat and can cause damage to the

cooktop.

Do not place canner

on two surface units

at the same time. Too much heat will build

up and will damage the cooktop.

Start with hot water.

This reduces the

time the control is set on high. Reduce

heat setting to lowest position needed to

keep water boiling.

Keep reflector bowls clean

for best heat

reflection.

l To prolong the life of the elements:

- Prepare small batches

at a time.

- Do not use elements

for canning

all day.

Refer

to your canner manual for specific

instructions.

Optional canning kit

The large diameter of most water-bath or

pressure canners combined with high heat

settings for long periods of time can shorten

the life of regular surface units and cause

damage to the cooktop.

If you plan to use the cooktop for canning,

we recommend the installation of a Canning

Kit. Order the kit (Part No. 242905) from

your Whirlpool dealer or authorized

Whirlpool service company.

Positioning racks and pans

For baking/roasting with one rack,

place

the rack so the top of the food will be

centered in the oven.

Rack placement for specific foods:

FOOD RACK POSITION

Frozen pies, large Lowest level or 2nd

roasts, turkeys, level from bottom

angel food cakes

Bundt cakes, most 2nd level from

quick breads, yeast bottom

breads, casseroles,

meats

Cookies, biscuits,

muff ins, cakes,

nonfrozen pies

2nd or 3rd level

from bottom

When baking on two racks,

arrange racks

on bottom and third level from bottom.

To change rack position,

lift rack at front

and pull out.

NOTE:

For recommended rack placement

when broiling, see “Broiling rack position

chart” on page 19.

Personal Injury Hazard

Always position oven rack(s) in

desired location before turning oven

on. Be sure the rack(s) is level.

l If rack(s) must be moved while oven

is hot, use pot holders or oven mitts

to protect hands.

Failure to follow the above precautions

could result in personal injury.

For best air circulation

Hot air must circulate around the pans in the

oven for even heat to reach all parts of the

oven. This results in better baking.

Place

the pans so that one is not directly

over the other.

For best results, allow

1l/2 to 2 inches

(4-5 cm) of space around each pan and

between pans and oven walls. There must

be a minimum space of 1 inch (3 cm).

Use

only one cookie sheet in the oven at

one time.

Use the following as a guide to

determine where to place the pans:

One pan

Place in the center of the oven rack.

Two pans

Place in opposite corners of the oven rack.

Three or four pans

Place in opposite corners on each oven

rack. Stagger pans so no pan is directly over

another.
