Induction Ready Cookware

POTS AND PANS

Only use pots and pans made from ferromagnetic material which are suitable for use with induction cooktop:

  • Enameled steel.
  • Cast iron
  • Stainless steel designed for induction cooktops.

To determine whether a pot is suitable, a magnet may be used to check whether pots are magnetic.

The quality and the structure of the pot base can alter cooking performance. Some indications for the diameter of the base do not correspond to the actual diameter of the ferromagnetic surface.

Some pots and pans have only a part of the bottom in ferromagnetic material, with parts in another material that is not suitable for induction cooking. These areas may heat up at different levels or with lower temperatures. In certain cases, where the bottom is made mainly of non-ferromagnetic materials, the cooktop might not recognize the pan and therefore not switch on the cooking zone.

To ensure optimum efficiency, always use pots and pans with a flat bottom that distributes the heat evenly. If the bottom is uneven, this will affect power and heat conduction

Empty pots or pots with a thin base
Do not use empty pots or pans when the cooktop is on.

Proper size of pot/pan base for the different cooking areas
To ensure that the cooktop functions properly, use pots of a suitable minimum diameter.

Always use the cooking zone that best corresponds to the minimum diameter of the bottom of the pot.

Place the pot making sure it is well centered on the cooking zone in use. Use cookware about the same size as the surface cooking area. Cookware should not extend more than 1/2" (1.3 cm) outside the area.

Minimum recommended pot diameters

  1. 43/4" (12 cm) minimum
  2. 511/16" (14.5 cm) minimum
  3. 71/16" (18 cm) minimum

  1. Surface cooking area
  2. Cookware/canner
  3. 1/2" (1.3 cm) Maximum overhang

Induction Cooking

Induction cooking is quite different from traditional forms of cooking. The heat is generated directly in the pan, keeping the cooking surface cooler than with a traditional element.

Induction cooking does not lose as much heat as traditional forms because all the heat is created in the pan itself.

The cooktop heats up or cools down quickly after the controls are set. It also stops heating when the pan is removed without turning off the power.

Food spilled on the cooktop surface will not burn because the glass is not heated. Induction cooking allows for immediate cleaning after use because the heat is created in the pan.

Pan size, material (see the "Cookware" section), and positioning are very important to achieve maximum power.

The diameter of the pan's base should be equal to the size of the element.

If the pan is too small, the burner does not sense the pan and will not activate.

Cooktop Controls

Fire Hazard
Turn off all controls when done cooking.
Failure to do so could result in death or fire.

The touch-activated electronic controls offer a variety of heat settings for optimal cooking results.

NOTE: Where 240 V installation is not available, this cooktop will automatically adjust to 208 V operation.

To Use

To Turn On the Cooktop:

  1. Touch cooktop power keypad .
    The indicator light above the cooktop power keypad and a dot (".") in each surface cooking area will blink to indicate the cooktop is on.
    Inactivity for 20 seconds after the cooktop power has been turned on will automatically turn off the power to the cooktop.

To Turn On a Surface Cooking Area:
NOTE:
Cookware has to be detected on the cooking area before the cooking area will turn on. The display for that cooking area will show zero once a pan is detected. If a cookware is on a cooking area and the cooking area is not turned on, the user may hear a clicking sound as the burner continues to detect a cookware.

  1. Touch directly on the display area for the surface cooking area you want to use. See C, D, F, and G of previous illustration.
  2. Select a heat setting from "L" through "H" on the heat level slider by touching/sliding on the power slider. The heat setting will appear in the surface cooking area display.
    NOTE: If cookware is removed from cooking area during cooking, the cooking area will turn off and indicator will be shown on the respective display area. If cookware is not put back on the cooking area within 30 seconds, the cooking area will automatically turn off.

The power slider consists of 9 positions plus a "Boost" position. When the user slides to "L", "0" will be displayed. The surface cooking area will not turn on but remains active/selected.

Use the following chart as a guide when setting heat levels.

Control Lock


Touch and hold the control lock keypad for 3 seconds to lock the cooktop controls.

Touch and hold the control lock keypad again for 3 seconds to unlock the cooktop controls.

Ceramic Glass

Clean the cooktop after each use to help avoid scratches, pitting, abrasions, and to condition the glass surface. Ceramic glass cooktop cleaner and a cooktop scraper are also recommended for stubborn soils. Do not use abrasive cleaners, cleaning pads, or harsh chemicals for cleaning. The Cooktop Care Kit Part Number 31605 contains all of the items needed to clean and condition your ceramic glass cooktop. Refer to the "Range Maintenance and Care" section in the Owner's Manual for additional information.


To avoid permanent damage to the cooktop surface and to make soils easier to remove, clean the cooktop after each use to remove all soils.

  • Avoid storing jars or cans above the cooktop. Dropping a heavy or hard object onto the cooktop could crack the cooktop.
  • To avoid damage to the cooktop, do not leave a hot lid on the cooktop. As the cooktop cools, air can become trapped between the lid and the cooktop and the ceramic glass could break when the lid is removed.
  • For foods containing sugar in any form, clean up all spills and soils as soon as possible. Allow the cooktop to cool down slightly. Then, while wearing oven mitts, remove the spills while the surface is still warm. If sugary spills are allowed to cool down, they can adhere to the cooktop and can cause pitting and permanent marks.
  • To avoid scratches, do not slide cookware or bakeware across the cooktop.
  • To avoid damage to the cooktop, do not allow objects that could melt, such as plastic or aluminum foil, to touch any part of the entire cooktop.
  • To avoid damage to the cooktop, do not use the cooktop as a cutting board.
  • Use cookware about the same size as the surface cooking area. Cookware should not extend more than 1/2" (1.3 cm) outside the area. Minimum pan size is also noted on the cooktop with the inner ring, if applicable.
  1. 1/2" (1.3 cm) maximum overhang
  2. Outer edge of cooktop
  3. Minimum pan size, if applicable
  • Use flat-bottomed cookware for best heat conduction and energy efficiency. Cookware with rounded, warped, ribbed, or dented bottoms could cause uneven heating and poor cooking results.
  • Determine flatness by placing the straight edge of a ruler across the bottom of the cookware. While you rotate the ruler, no space or light should be visible between it and the cookware.
  • To determine which pan to use on which induction element, measure the bottom of the flat area of your pan. Do not include the sides if they curve up. Use this measurement to help determine which induction element would best fit your pan. Manufacturer measurements listed on pans are usually for the top opening dimension. The flat bottom may be smaller.
  • Make sure the bottoms of pots and pans are clean and dry before using them. Residue and water can leave deposits when heated.

Home Canning

Canning can be performed on the induction cooktop. See the "Cookware" section to check if the canner will work on the induction cooktop. When canning for long periods, alternate the use of surface cooking areas or elements between batches. This allows time for the most recently used areas to cool.

  • Center the canner on the largest surface cooking area or element. On electric cooktops, canners should not extend more than 1/2" (1.3 cm) beyond the surface cooking area or element.
  • Do not place canner on 2 surface cooking areas or elements at the same time.
  • On ceramic glass models, use only flat-bottomed canners to avoid damage to the cooktop and elements.
  • For more information, contact your local agricultural extension office or refer to published home canning guides. Companies that manufacture home canning products can also offer assistance.

OVEN USE

Odors and smoke are normal when the oven is used the first few times or when it is heavily soiled.


The health of some birds is extremely sensitive to the fumes given off. Exposure to the fumes may result in death to certain birds. Always move birds to another closed and well ventilated room.

POSITIONING RACKS AND BAKEWARE

To position a rack, pull it out to the stop position, raise the front edge, and then lift out. Use the following illustration and charts as a guide.

Baking and Roasting

Preheating

When beginning a Bake, Convect Bake, or Convect Roast cycle, the oven will begin preheating after Start is pressed. The oven will take approximately 12 to 15 minutes to reach 350°F (177°C) with all of the oven racks provided with your oven inside the oven cavity. Higher temperatures will take longer to preheat. The preheat cycle rapidly increases the oven temperature. The actual oven temperature will go above your set temperature to offset the heat lost when your oven door is opened to insert food. This ensures that when you place your food in the oven, the oven will begin at the proper temperature. Insert your food when the preheat tone sounds. Do not open the door during preheat before the tone sounds.

Oven Temperature

While in use, the oven elements will cycle on and off as needed to maintain a consistent temperature, but they may run slightly hot or cool at any point in time due to this cycling. Opening the oven door while in use will release the hot air and cool the oven which could impact the cooking time and performance. It is recommended to use the oven light to monitor cooking progress.

NOTE: On models with convection, the convection fan may run in the non-convection bake mode to improve oven performance.

Temperature Management System

The Temperature Management System electronically regulates the oven heat levels during preheat and bake to maintain a precise temperature range for optimal cooking results. The bake and broil elements or burners cycle on and off in intervals. On convection range models, the fan will run while preheating and may be cycled on and off for short intervals during bake to provide the best results. This feature is automatically activated when the oven is in use.

Before baking and roasting, position racks according to the "Positioning Racks and Bakeware" section. When roasting, it is not necessary to wait for the oven preheat cycle to end before putting food in unless it is recommended in the recipe.

Steam Bake

The Steam Bake function works in conjunction with the steam rack to provide additional moisture during baking. The steam rack contains a water reservoir which heats up and releases steam into the oven cavity during the Steam Bake cycle. There are 3 preprogrammed food options to choose from: Breads, Desserts, and Fish as well as a Refresh/Reheat option.

For best performance, place the steam rack in the lowest available rack position in the cavity and pour 11/2 cups (350 mL) of water into the reservoir. Do not fill past the MAX level indicated on the reservoir.

After the Steam Bake cycle is complete, some water may remain in the reservoir. This is normal. Wait for the oven to cool and discard the water.

  1. Steam rack
  2. Water reservoir

Broiling

When broiling, preheat the oven for 2 minutes before putting food in, unless recommended otherwise in the recipe. Position food on grid in a broiler pan, and then place it in the center of the oven rack.


Close the door to ensure proper broiling temperature.

Changing the temperature when broiling allows more precise control when cooking. The lower the broil setting is, the slower the cooking. Thicker cuts and unevenly shaped pieces of meat, fish, and poultry may cook better at lower broil settings. Use rack 6 or 7 for broiling. Refer to the "Positioning Racks and Bakeware" section for more information.

On lower settings, the broil element will cycle on and off to maintain the proper temperature.

  • For best results, use a broiler pan and grid. It is designed to drain juices and help avoid spatter and smoke.
    If you would like to purchase a broiler pan, one may be ordered. Please refer to the Quick Start Guide for contact information.

Convection Cooking

In a convection oven, the fan-circulated hot air continually distributes heat more evenly than the natural movement of air in a standard thermal oven. This movement of hot air helps maintain a consistent temperature throughout the oven, cooking foods more evenly, crisping surfaces while sealing in moisture and yielding crustier breads.

During convection baking or roasting, the bake, broil, and convection elements cycle on and off in intervals while the fan circulates the hot air. During convection broiling, the broil and convection elements cycle on and off.

If the oven door is opened during convection cooking, the fan will turn off immediately. It will come back on when the oven door is closed.

With convection cooking, most foods can be cooked at a lower temperature and/or a shorter cooking time than in a standard thermal oven. Depending upon the selected cooking mode, EasyConvect™ conversion can automatically reduce the standard recipe temperature and/or time you input for convection cooking. If you choose not to use the EasyConvect™ conversion, use the following table as a guide.

Convection Mode Time/Temperature Guidelines
Convection Bake 25°F (15°C) lower temperature, possible shortened cooking time
Convection Roast Cooking time shortened by up to 30%
Convection Broil Shortened cooking time

Convect Options
Convect Bake - multiple-rack baking or cookies, biscuits, breads, casseroles, tarts, tortes, cakes
Convect Roast - whole chicken or turkey, vegetables, pork roasts, beef roasts
Convect Broil - thicker cuts or unevenly shaped pieces of meat, fish, or poultry

Air Fry Basket

Part of what makes air fryers so efficient at crisping up your food has to do with the perforated basket that is designed for air frying. The air fry basket allows the hot air to circulate thoroughly on the entire surface of the food.

When using the Air Fry feature, position the air fry basket on top of a large baking sheet to collect crumbs, oil and mitigate smoke. Place the basket and sheet in the rack position 4 of the oven to increase air flow and circulation. Refer to Positioning Racks and Bakeware for more details. Avoid using more than one basket to avoid uneven cooking.

Air Fry

While air frying, the heating elements and convect fan cycle on and off in intervals to maintain the oven temperature while the fan circulates the hot air. Close the oven door to ensure proper temperature.


Cooking times, temperatures, and general instructions may vary depending on recipe.

Air frying in a large oven cavity allows for more food to be air fried at one time, longer baking times are to be expected.

  • When air frying, food should be evenly spaced in an air fry basket in a single layer.
  • Refer to instructions on packaged food for conventional oven baking regarding air fry time and temperature.
  • For fresh food recipes with bake times over 30 minutes, a 5-10 minutes preheat is recommended.
  • For frozen, bone-in, or dense foods with cook times less than 15 minutes, additional time may be required.
  • It is not recommended to use wet batter when air frying.
  • For best performance, shake or flip food half-way through bake time. Be sure to close the oven door after removing and inserting the food back to the cavity.
  • Spray air fry basket with oil to avoid food sticking to basket.

NOTE: Greasy foods may cause smoke during the air fry cycle. Properly using the air fry basket and baking sheet will help to reduce the amount of smoke produced. Maintaining a clean oven and baking sheet will also help reduce the amount of smoke.

Proofing Bread

Proofing bread prepares the dough for baking by activating the yeast. Follow the recipe directions as a guide. Proof should be used for fresh dough, thawed dough, and for the first and second rise.

To Proof:
Before first proofing, place the dough in a lightly greased bowl and cover loosely with wax paper, coated with shortening. Place on rack guide 2 and close the oven door.

NOTE: If the temperature of the oven is greater than 120°F (49°C), "Oven Cooling" will be displayed until the temperature is less than 120°F (49°C).

  1. Press Proof.
  2. Press Start. Let the dough rise until nearly doubled in size. Proofing time may vary depending on dough type and quantity.
  3. Press Cancel when finished proofing.

Before second proofing, shape the dough, place it in baking pan (s), and cover loosely. Follow the same placement and control steps above. Before baking, remove the cover.

NOTE: If the oven temperature is greater than 120°F (49°C), the display will indicate "Oven Cooling" until the temperature is below 120°F (49°C).

RANGE MAINTENANCE AND CARE

Clean Cycle


AquaLift® Technology is an innovative cleaning solution that utilizes heat and water to release baked-on spills from the oven in less than 1 hour. This new cleaning technology is a low-heat, odor-free alternative to traditional self-cleaning options.

Allow the oven to cool to room temperature before using the Clean cycle. If your oven cavity is above 200°F (93°C), it will appear in the display, and the Clean cycle will not be activated until the oven cavity cools down.

To Clean:

  1. Remove all racks and accessories from the oven cavity, and wipe excess soil. Use a plastic scraper to remove easily removed soils.
  2. Pour 2 cups (16 oz [500 mL]) of distilled or filtered water onto the bottom of the empty oven, and close the oven door.


Do not use chemicals or other additives with the water. Do not open the oven door during the Clean cycle. The water on the oven bottom is hot.

  1. Press CLEAN or AQUALIFT SELF CLEAN and then Start on the oven control panel.
  2. Allow 40 minutes for cleaning and cool down. A beep will sound when the Clean cycle is complete.
  3. Press Cancel at the end of the cycle. Cancel may be pressed at any time to stop the Clean cycle.
  4. Remove the residual water and loosened soils with a sponge or cloth immediately after the Clean cycle is complete. Much of the initial 2 cups (16 oz [500 mL]) of water will remain in the oven after the cycle is completed. If additional soils remain, leave a small amount of water in the oven bottom to assist with the cleaning.
  5. If any soils remain, remove them with a non-scratch scrubbing sponge or plastic scraper. Additional Clean cycles may be run to help remove the stubborn soils.


Do not use oven cleaners. The use of chemicals, including commercial oven cleaners or metal scouring pads, may cause permanent damage to the porcelain surface of the oven interior.

NOTES:

  • The range should be level to ensure that the entire surface of the bottom of the oven cavity is covered by water at the beginning of the Clean cycle.
  • For best results, use distilled or filtered water. Tap water may leave mineral deposits on the oven bottom.
  • Before removing the residual water and loosened soils at the end of the Clean cycle, insert a cloth or paper towel between the lower edge of the oven door and the front frame to keep water from spilling onto the front of the range and the floor.
  • Soil baked on through several cooking cycles will be more difficult to remove with the Clean cycle.
  • Nonabrasive scrub sponges or eraser style cleaning pads (without cleaners) can be effective for cleaning the oven cavity walls, oven door and oven bottom for difficult soils. For best results, moisten the pads and sponges before use.
  • Run an additional Clean cycle for stubborn soils.
  • Affresh® Kitchen Appliance Cleaner and affresh® Cooktop Cleaner may be used to clean the oven bottom, walls, and door when the oven has finished the cycle and returned to room temperature. If affresh® Cooktop Cleaner is used, it is recommended to wipe out the cavity with distilled water as well. Refer to the Quick Start Guide for ordering information.
  • Additional AquaLift® Technology Cleaning Kits may be obtained by ordering Part Number W10423113RP. Refer to the Quick Start Guide for ordering information.
