Caution: All ignitors spark when any single burner is turned on. Do not
touch any of the burners when the cooktop is in use.
High Power Burner The high power burner is the largest burner. It is the most powerful burner on the
cooktop. It retains heat longer than normal burner caps and, at low settings, pro-
hibits the flame from touching the cookware. This results in a gentle, more predict-
able heat. Use the low settings on this burner to simmer large amounts of sauces
or soups. Use the high settings to quickly bring large amounts of water to a boil.
Precision Burner The precision burner is the smallest burner on the cooktop. It is well suited for
gentle cooking of small amounts of food. Use the burner to melt butter or choco-
late or to prepare delicate sauces.
Flat Oven Racks The racks are designed with a stop so they will stop before coming completely out
of the oven and not tilt.
CAUTION
To avoid burns, place oven racks in desired positions before turning
oven on. Always use oven mitts when the oven is warm.If a rack must
be moved while the oven is hot, do not let oven mitts contact hot burn-
ers.
Inserting Racks Into Oven
1. Grasp rack firmly on both sides.
2. Tilt rack up to allow stop into rack guide.
3. Bring rack to a horizontal position and press the rest of the way in. Rack
should be straight and flat, not crooked.
Oven Bottom Caution: Do not place food directly on oven bottom. Do not use aluminum
foil or protective liners to line any part of an appliance, especially surface
unit drip bowls or oven bottom. Installation of these liners may result in a
risk of electric shock or fire.
Oven Vent The oven vent is located below the display above the rear left cooktop burner. It is
normal to see steam escaping from the vent and condensation may collect on the
backguard and cooktop. This area may become hot when the oven is in use. To
prevent carbon monoxide build-up, do not block the vent. The oven vent is also
important for air circulation.
Automatic Shutoff The oven will automatically shut off after 12 hours (24 hours if the time format is
set for 24 hour in the Select Function section).
Self Cleaning The oven features a self-cleaning function that eliminates the manual labor
involved with cleaning your oven.
