To Broil  
1. Arrange oven rack while oven is still cool. For rare meats, position the broiler pan closer to the element (upper position).  
For well-done foods such as chicken, lobster tails or thick cuts of meat, position the pan further from the element (lower  
position).  
2. Turn the Oven Control to Broil. Most foods can be broiled at the Broil setting. To sear rare steaks, allow the element to  
become red-hotabout 2 minutesbefore placing food in the oven.  
3. Place the insert on the broiler pan (if equipped), then place the food on the insert. DO NOT use the broiler pan without the  
insert or cover the insert with aluminum foil. The exposed fat could ignite.  
4. Place the pan on the oven rack. Leave the door open at the broil stop position while broiling. The door will stay in this  
position without closing.  
5. Broil on one side until food is browned; turn and cook on the second side. Season and serve. Note: Always pull the rack  
out to the stop position before turning or removing food.  
6. When broiling is finished, turn the Oven Control to OFF.  
To insure proper  
results when broiling use approved

same angle. (See Fig. 3)  
6. To clean oven door, follow the instructions provided in the Cleaning Chart at  
the beginning of the Care & Cleaning section (See Door Liner).  
To Replace Oven Door:  
1. Be sure the hinge arms remain at the 45 degree angle position. Be sure the  
screws are still locking the hinge arms from moving. If the screws fall out of  
the hinge holes, the hinge(s) may snap back against the oven frame and could  
pinch fingers or chip the porcelain finish on the oven front frame.  
2. Hold door at the sides near the top while resting the lower front of door on your  
knee. Insert the door channels at the bottom of door over the door hinges, (See  
Fig. 3).  
Fig. 2  
3. Allow the door to slide down into the door hinges evenly at the same 45 degree  
angle. The hinge arms should be inserted into the bottom corners as far as they  
can go.  
4. Open door completely (horizontal with floor) and remove both screws from  
holes in door hinges.  
5. Reinstall the 2 screws into the door liner (See C Fig. 2).  
6. If the door is not in alignment with the oven frame, remove door and repeat the  
above steps.  
Fig. 3  
Changing the Oven Light (some models)  
On some models, the oven light automatically turns on when the door is opened.  
Some models have a switch located on the control panel to turn on the light. The  
oven light is located at the rear of the oven.  
To replace the oven light:  
1. Turn electrical power off at the main source or unplug the range.  
2. Replace bulb with a new 40 watt appliance bulb.  
3. Turn power back on again at the main source (or plug the range back in).  
4. The clock will then need to be reset. To reset, see Setting Surface & Oven  
Controls in this Use & Care Manual.  
Be sure the range is unplugged and all parts are COOL before  
replacing oven light. Wear a leather-faced glove for protection against possible  
broken glass.

Before You Call  
Solutions to Common Problems  
Before you call for service, review this list. It may save you time and expense. The list includes common occurrences that  
are not the result of defective workmanship or materials in this appliance.  
OCCURRENCE  
Range is not level.  
POSSIBLE CAUSE / SOLUTION  
Poor installation. Place oven rack in center of oven. Place a level on the oven rack. Adjust  
leveling legs at base of range until the oven rack is level.  
Be sure floor is level and is strong and stable enough to adequately support range.  
If floor is sagging or sloping, contact a carpenter to correct the situation.  
Kitchen cabinet alignment may make range appear unlevel. Be sure cabinets are square  
and have sufficient room for range clearance.  
Cannot move appliance easily. Appliance  
must be accessible for service.  
Cabinets not square or are built in too tightly. Contact builder or installer to make  
appliance accessible.  
Carpet interferes with range. Provide sufficient space so range can be lifted over carpet.  
Surface element too hot or not hot enough. Incorrect control setting. Make sure the correct control is on for the surface element to  
be used.  
Lightweightorwarpedpansused. Useonlyflat, evenlybalanced, mediumorheavyweight  
cookware. Flat pans heat better than warped pans. Cookware materials and weight of  
the material affect heating. Heavy and medium-weight pans heat evenly. Because  
lightweight pans heat unevenly, foods may burn easily.  
Surface element does not heat.  
Entire appliance does not operate.  
No power to the appliance. Check steps under "Entire Appliance Does Not Operate" in  
this Before You Call Checklist.  
Incorrect control setting. Make sure the correct control is on for the surface element to  
be used.  
Element not making contact in block. Follow instructions under "Surface Elements and  
Drip Bowls" in the Care & Cleaning section.  
Make sure cord/plug is plugged tightly into outlet.  
The time of day must first be set in order to operate the oven.  
Service wiring is not complete. Contact your authorized Servicer for assistance.  
Control(s) not set properly. Follow instructions under Setting Surface & Oven Controls.  
Oven smokes excessively during broiling.  
Drip bowls are pitting or rusting.  
Make sure oven door is opened to broil stop position.  
Meat too close to the element. Reposition the rack to provide proper clearance between  
the meat and the element. Preheat broil element for searing.  
Foods with acids, such as tomatoes, if allowed to stand in/on bowls will cause corrosion.  
Remove and wash drip bowls as soon as possible after a spillover  
Normal environment. Houses along sea coast are exposed to salt air. Protect bowls as  
much as possible from direct exposure to salt air.  
Bottom surface of cookware extends beyond surface elements and touches cooktop  
surface. This can cause high enough temperatures to discolor the drip bowls. DO NOT  
use cookware of this type. Pan sizes should be matched to the size of the element.  
Replacement bowls may be purchased from your authorized Servicer.  
Drip bowls turning color or distorted.  
Poor baking results.  
Many factors affect baking results. Make sure the proper rack position is used. Center  
food in the oven and space pans to allow air to circulate. Allow the oven to preheat to  
the set temperature before placing food in the oven. Try adjusting the recipe's  
recommended temperature or baking time.  
Yourovenwillmostlikelysmokeafteraspilloverhasoccurred... thisisnormal, especially
