Follow utensil manufacturer's instructions when using glass. 2 Important Safety Instructions Turn pan handle toward center of cooktop, not out into the room or over another surface element. This reduces the risk of burns, ignition of flammable materials, or spillage if pan is accidently bumped or reached by small children. Be sure utensil is large enough to properly contain food and avoid boilovers. Pan size is particularly important in deep fat frying. Be sure pan will accommodate the volume of food that is to be added as well as the bubble action of fat. Never let a pan boil dry as this could damage the utensil and the appliance. caution. Use care to avoid steam burns if a wet sponge or cloth is used to wipe spills on a hot surface. Some cleaners can produce noxious fumes if applied to a hot surface. Clean only parts listed in this guide. Self-Clean Oven (select models) CAUTION Before self-cleaning the oven, remove the oven racks, broiler pan, food and any other utensils. Wipe spillovers to prevent excessive smoke and flare-ups. Do not clean 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 or oven liners of any kind in or around any part of the self-clean oven. It is normal for the cooktop of the range to become hot during a self-clean cycle. Therefore, touching the cooktop during a clean cycle should be avoided. Cooktop NEVER leave surface units unattended especially when using high heat. An unattended boilover could cause smoking and a greasy spillover can cause a fire. This appliance is equipped with different size surface elements. Select pans with flat bottoms large enough to cover element. Fitting pan size to element will improve cooking efficiency. Coil Elements To prevent damage to removable heating elements, do not immerse, soak or clean in a dishwasher or self-clean oven. A damaged element could short resulting in a fire or shock hazard. Make sure drip bowls are in place as absence of these bowls during cooking could damage wiring. Protective Liners: Do not use aluminum foil to line surface unit drip bowls or oven bottoms, except as suggested in the manual. Improper installation of these liners may result in a risk of electric shock or fire. Important Safety Notice and Warning The California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986 (Proposition 65) requires the Governor of California to publish a list of substances known to the State of California to cause cancer or reproductive harm, and requires businesses to warn customers of potential exposures to such substances. Users of this appliance are hereby warned that when the oven is engaged in the self-clean cycle, there may be some low-level exposure to some of the listed substances, including carbon monoxide. Exposure to these substances can be minimized by properly venting the oven to the outdoors by opening the windows and/or door in the room where the appliance is located during the self-clean cycle. IMPORTANT NOTICE REGARDING PET BIRDS: Never keep pet birds in the kitchen or in rooms where the fumes from the kitchen could reach. Birds have a very sensitive respiratory system. Fumes released during an oven self-cleaning cycle may be harmful or fatal to birds. Fumes released due to overheated cooking oil, fat, margarine and overheated non-stick cookware may be equally harmful. Deep Fat Fryers Use extreme caution when moving the grease pan or disposing of hot grease. Allow grease to cool before attempting to move pan. Ventilating Hoods Clean range hood and filters frequently to prevent grease or other flammable materials from accumulating on hood or filter and to avoid grease fires.

Pour empêcher qu'un feu de graisse ne se déclare, éviter toute accumulation de graisse ou autres matières inflammables dans l'appareil ou au voisinage. ATTENTION ATTENTION - Dangers ou pratiques dangereuses qui POURRAIENT résulter en des blessures mineures. Lire toutes les instructions avant d'utiliser cet appareil; observer toutes les instructions pour éliminer les risques d'incendie, choc électrique, dommages matériels et corporels 25 Instructions de sécurité importantes En cas d'incendie Ne jamais utiliser d'eau pour éteindre de la graisse enflammée. Utiliser du bicarbonate de soude ou un extincteur à poudre chimique ou à mousse pour étouffer les flammes. 1. Interrompre l'alimentation électrique de l'appareil pour minimiser la propagation des flammes. 2. NE JAMAIS saisir ou déplacer un ustensile de cuisine enflammé. 3. Fermer la porte du four pour étouffer les flammes du four. NE JAMAIS TOUCHER LES ÉLÉMENTS CHAUFFANTS NI LES PAROIS INTÉRIEURES DU FOUR. Les éléments chauffants peuvent être brûlants même s'ils ne sont plus rouges. Les surfaces intérieures du four peuvent atteindre une température suffisamment élevée pour infliger des brûlures. Pendant et après usage, ne pas toucher les éléments chauffants ni les parois intérieures du four et éviter leur contact avec des vêtements ou autres matériaux inflammables avant qu'ils n'aient eu le temps de refroidir suffisamment. D'autres surfaces peuvent également atteindre une température suffisamment élevée pour brûler : le ouverture d'évent et le surface avoisinante, ainsi que le porte et le hublot de four. Ne pas toucher l'ampoule du four brûlante avec un chiffon humide car elle pourrait se briser. Si tel est le cas, débrancher l'appareil avant de retirer l'ampoule pour éviter une décharge électrique. NE JAMAIS garnir la sole du four ou une grille du four avec de la feuille d'aluminium. Ceci pourrait susciter un risque de décharge électrique ou d'incendie, ou une détérioration de l'appareil. Utiliser de la feuille d'aluminium uniquement selon les instructions de ce guide. Sécurité pour les enfants ATTENTION NE JAMAIS remiser dans une armoire au-dessus d'un appareil des articles auxquels les enfants peuvent s'intéresser. Un enfant tentant de grimper sur l'appareil ou sur la porte pour atteindre un objet, pourrait se blesser gravement. NE JAMAIS laisser des enfants seuls ou sans supervision lorsque l'appareil est en service ou encore chaud. Ne jamais laisser un enfant s'asseoir ou se tenir sur une partie quelconque de l'appareil. Il pourrait se blesser ou se brûler. Il est important d'enseigner aux enfants que l'appareil et les ustensiles placés dedans peuvent être chauds. Laisser refroidir les ustensiles en un lieu sûr, hors d'atteinte des enfants. Il est important d'enseigner aux enfants qu'un appareil ménager n'est pas un jouet, et qu'ils ne doivent toucher aucune commande ou autre composant de l'appareil. Cuisson et sécurité NE JAMAIS faire chauffer un récipient non ouvert dans le four. L'accumulation de pression dans le récipient pourrait provoquer son éclatement et de graves dommages matériels ou corporels. Utiliser des maniques robustes et sèches. Des maniques humides peuvent provoquer la formation de vapeur brûlante. Ne jamais utiliser un torchon à vaisselle ou autre article textile à la place de maniques; un tel article pourrait traîner sur un élément et s'enflammer, ou accrocher un ustensile ou un composant de l'appareil. Porter un vêtement approprié. Éviter de porter des vêtements amples ou à longues manches pendant l'utilisation de l'appareil. Ils peuvent prendre feu si le vêtement entre en contact avec un élément de cuisson brûlant. Placer toujours les grilles à la position appropriée dans le four lorsque le four est froid. Faire coulisser la grille vers l'extérieur avant d'ajouter ou enlever un plat; utiliser pour cela une manique robuste et sèche. Éviter d'introduire la main dans le four pour y placer ou retirer un plat. S'il est nécessaire de déplacer une grille lorsqu'elle est chaude, utiliser une manique sèche. Ne pas toucher un élément chaud avec une manique. N'utiliser les grilles que dans le four dans lequel elles ont été achetées/expédiées. Familiarisation avec l'appareil ATTENTION NE JAMAIS utiliser un appareil comme escabeau pour atteindre les armoires se trouvant au-dessus.

Laisser l'air chaud ou la vapeur s'échapper avant de retirer ou d'introduire un plat. AVERTISSEMENT - METS PRÉPARÉS : Respecter les instructions du fabricant. Si le contenant ou le couvercle en plastique d'un mets surgelé se déforme ou est endommagé durant la cuisson, jeter immédiatement le récipient et son contenu. Les aliments pourraient être contaminés. Ne pas permettre le contact de papier d'aluminium ou de la sonde à viande avec les éléments chauffants. Toujours éteindre toutes les commandes une fois la cuisson terminée. Veiller à ne jamais laisser le contenu liquide d'un ustensile s'évaporer complètement; l'ustensile et l'appareil pourraient subir des dommages. Table de cuisson NE JAMAIS laisser un élément de surface allumé sans surveillance, particulièrement avec chauffage élevé. Le débordement du contenu de l'ustensile pourrait provoquer la génération de fumée abondante et l'inflammation de la graisse. Cet appareil comporte des éléments chauffants de différentes tailles. Utiliser toujours un ustensile à fond plat, de taille suffisante pour qu'il puisse recouvrir complètement l'élément. Pour optimiser l'efficacité, choisir un ustensile de même taille que l'élément. Ustensiles et sécurité Appliquer les instructions du fabricant lors de l'emploi d'un sachet pour cuisson au four. La sécurité de fonctionnement de cet appareil a été testée à l'aide d'ustensiles de cuisine traditionnels. Ne pas utiliser un ustensile ou accessoire qui n'est pas spécifiquement recommandé dans ce guide. Ne pas utiliser de couvreélément, gril placé sur la table de cuisson ou système de convection additionnel. L'utilisation d'un dispositif ou accessoire qui n'est pas expressément recommandé dans ce guide peut dégrader la sécurité de l'appareil ou sa performance, ou réduire la longévité des composants. Si un ustensile est plus petit que l'élément utilisé, une partie de l'élément chauffant est exposée et peut provoquer l'inflammation d'un vêtement ou des maniques. Seuls certains matériaux en verre, vitrocéramique, céramique, grès, ou certains ustensiles vitrifiés/émaillés peuvent être utilisés sur la table de cuisson ou dans le four sans risque de bris sous l'effet du choc thermique. Observer les instructions du fabricant lors de l'utilisation d'un ustensile en verre. Orienter la poignée de chaque ustensile vers le centre de la table de cuisson et non vers l'extérieur ou vers un autre élément; ceci réduira le risque de brûlure, inflammation de matière inflammable ou renversement (un jeune enfant pourrait saisir et renverser un ustensile dont le manche est orienté vers l'extérieur). Veiller à utiliser un ustensile de taille suffisante pour que le contenu ne risque pas de déborder. Ceci est particulièrement important pour un ustensile rempli d'huile de friture. Vérifier que la taille de l'ustensile est suffisante pour qu'il puisse recevoir les produits alimentaires à cuire, et absorber l'augmentation de volume suscitée par l'ébullition de la graisse. Éléments spiralés Pour éviter de détériorer les éléments chauffants amovibles, ne pas les immerger / tremper / nettoyer dans un lave-vaisselle, ou dans un four autonettoyant. Un élément chauffant endommagé pourrait provoquer un court-circuit suscitant un incendie ou un choc électrique. Veiller à ce que la cuvette de récupération soit toujours en place lors de l'utilisation de l'élément; l'absence de la cuvette de récupération lors d'une cuisson peut faire subir des dommages au câblage. Garnitures de protection : Ne pas garnir les cuvettes de récupération sous les éléments ou le fond du four avec de la feuille d'aluminium, sauf lorsque ceci est suggéré dans le guide. La mise en place d'un tel garnissage peut susciter un risque de choc électrique ou d'incendie. Friteuses Exercer une prudence extrême lors du déplacement du récipient de graisse ou lors de l'élimination de graisse chaude. Laisser la graisse refroidir avant de déplacer l'ustensile. Hottes d'extraction Nettoyer fréquemment les filtres et la hotte de la cuisinière pour empêcher la graisse ou d'autres produits inflammables de s'accumuler sur les filtres ou la hotte en provoquant des feux de graisse. Pour flamber des aliments sous la hotte, mettre le ventilateur en marche. 27 Instructions de sécurité importantes Nettoyage et sécurité Nettoyer prudemment la table de cuisson. Arrêter toutes les commandes et attendre le refroidissement de tous les composants avant de les toucher ou d'entreprendre le nettoyage. Nettoyer l'appareil avec précaution. Travailler prudemment pour éviter des brûlures par la vapeur en cas d'utilisation d'un chiffon ou d'une éponge humide lors de l'élimination d'un produit renversé sur une surface chaude. Certains produits de nettoyage peuvent générer des vapeurs nocives lorsqu'on les applique sur une surface chaude. Nettoyer uniquement les pièces mentionnées dans ce guide. Il est normal que la surface de cuisson devienne chaude durant une opération d'autonettoyage; par conséquent, éviter de toucher la surface de cuisson durant l'autonettoyage. Avertissement et avis important pour la sécurité La loi californienne « Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act » de 1986 (proposition 65) stipule la publication par le gouverneur de la Californie d'une liste de substances que l'état de Californie considère comme cancérigènes ou dangereuses pour le système reproducteur, et impose aux entreprises commerciales l'obligation de signaler à leurs clients les risques d'exposition à de telles substances. Nous informons les utilisateurs de cet appareil que lors d'une opération d'autonettoyage, ils peuvent être exposés à une faible concentration de certaines substances figurant dans la liste mentionnée ci-dessus, dont le monoxyde de carbone. Pour minimiser l'exposition, veiller à ce que la pièce où se trouve le four soit convenablement aérée durant une opération d'autonettoyage par l'ouverture d'une fenêtre ou d'une porte. AVIS IMPORTANT - OISEAUX FAMILIERS : Les oiseaux ont un système respiratoire très sensible. Ne pas garder un oiseau familier dans la cuisine ou dans une pièce où il pourrait être exposé aux fumées. Les fumées émises durant une opération d'autonettoyage peuvent être dangereuses ou mortelles pour un oiseau, de même que les fumées émises lors du chauffage excessif de graisse, huile, margarine, et du chauffage excessif dans un ustensile à revêtement antiadhésif. Four autonettoyant (certains modèles) ATTENTION Avant d'effectuer un cycle d'autonettoyage, enlevez les grilles de four, la lèchefrite, la nourriture et tout autre ustensile présent dans le four. Essuyez les renversements pour prévenir la formation de fumée et de flammes excessives. Ne pas nettoyer le joint de porte; le joint joue un rôle essentiel quant à l'étanchéité. Ne pas frotter, endommager ou déplacer le joint. Ne pas utiliser de produits de nettoyage pour four ou enduits de four, dans le four autonettoyant ou sur les zones voisines. Conserver ces instructions pour consultation ultérieure 28 Cuisson sur la surface Boutons de commande Permettent l'utilisation des éléments chauffants de surface, avec une progression continue de la puissance entre les réglages extrêmes Low (Bas) et High (Élevé). On peut régler un bouton à toute position entre ces deux extrêmes. Suggestions pour le réglage On doit choisir la puissance de chauffage en fonction de divers facteurs : taille, type de l'ustensile et opération de cuisson. Low (Bas) (2) : Pour fusion de chocolat ou beurre, ou le maintien de la température d'un mets. Med. Low (Moyen bas) (3-4) : Pour continuer la cuisson de mets en casseroles fermées par couvercle ou pour cuire à la vapeur. High (Élevé) (10) : Pour l'ébullition d'un liquide. On doit toujours réduire la puissance de chauffage dès que la température d'ébullition est atteinte ou que l'aliment commence à cuire. (Le style peut varier selon le modèle) Réglage des commandes 1. Placer l'ustensile sur l'élément. 2. Enfoncer et faire tourner le bouton jusqu'à la position désirée (rotation dans un sens ou dans l'autre). · Des marques sur le tableau de commande identifient l'élément commandé par chaque bouton. Par exemple, le graphique à droite indique l'élément avant/gauche. 3. Il y a un témoin lumineux pour les éléments sur le tableau de commande. Lorsque l'un des boutons de commande d'un élément de surface est alimenté, le témoin s'illumine. Le témoin s'éteint dès qu'on interrompt l'alimentation de l'élément. 4. Après une cuisson, ramener le bouton à la position OFF (Arrêt). Retirer l'ustensile. Medium (Moyen) (5-7) : Pour le maintien de l'ébullition lente d'une grande quantité de liquide ou pour la plupart des opérations de friture. Med. High (Moyen élevé) (8-9) : Pour rissoler les viandes, chauffer l'huile (grande friture ou aliments sautés) et pour le maintien de l'ébullition rapide d'une grande quantité de liquide. ATTENTION AVANT LA CUISSON · Placer toujours l'ustensile sur l'élément avant d'alimenter l'élément. Pour éviter que la cuisinière ne subisse des dommages, ne jamais faire fonctionner un élément de surface sans y placer un ustensile. · NE JAMAIS utiliser la table de cuisson comme lieu de remisage d'aliments ou d'ustensiles. DURANT LA CUISSON · Veiller à bien connaître la correspondance entre les boutons de commande et les éléments. Veiller à commander l'alimentation de l'élément voulu. · Commencer la cuisson avec une puissance de chauffage supérieure, puis réduire la puissance de chauffage pour poursuivre la cuisson. Ne jamais utiliser une puissance de chauffage élevée pour une cuisson prolongée. · NE JAMAIS laisser le contenu d'un ustensile s'évaporer complètement; ceci pourrait faire subir des dommages à l'ustensile et à l'appareil. · NE JAMAIS toucher la table de cuisson avant qu'elle se soit complètement refroidie. Certaines zones de la table de cuisson, particulièrement au voisinage des éléments de surface, peuvent devenir très chaudes durant une cuisson. Utiliser des maniques. APRÈS LA CUISSON · S'assurer que l'élément est arrêté. · Éliminer dès que possible tous les résidus de renversement et projections. AUTRES CONSEILS · S'il y a une armoire de rangement directement au-dessus de la table de cuisson, on ne doit y placer que des articles peu fréquemment utilisés et qui peuvent être exposés à la chaleur. La chaleur émise par la cuisinière pourrait susciter un problème pour des articles comme liquides volatils, produits de nettoyage et flacons d'aérosol. · NE JAMAIS laisser d'article sur la table de cuisson, particulièrement d'article en plastique. L'air chaud qui s'échappe par l'évent du four pourrait provoquer l'inflammation d'un article inflammable, faire fondre/amollir un article en plastique, ou provoquer une augmentation de pression provoquant l'éclatement d'un récipient fermé. · NE JAMAIS laisser de la feuille d'aluminium, une sonde thermométrique à viande ou un objet métallique autre qu'un ustensile de cuisson sur la table de cuisson, entrer en contact avec un élément chauffant. 29 Cuisson sur la surface Éléments de la table de cuisson Remarques : · Nettoyer la table de cuisson après chaque utilisation. · Essuyer tout produit renversé acide ou sucré sur la table de cuisson, pour éviter une attaque chimique ou un changement de couleur de l'émail. Éléments spiralés · Lorsqu'un élément est utilisé, il est alimenté par intermittence pour le maintien de la puissance de chauffage désirée. · Les éléments spiralés sont autonettoyants. Ne pas les immerger dans de l'eau. Dépose : Soulever l'élément refroidi. Tirer prudemment pour extraire l'élément du bloc de connexion. Pour protéger la finition des cuvettes de récupération : · Pour diminuer la décoloration et le fendillement, éviter d'utiliser une puissance de chauffage élevée pendant une période prolongée. · Ne pas utiliser un ustensile de trop grande taille. L'ustensile ne devrait pas déborder de plus de 2,5 cm - 5 cm (1 - 2 pouces) au-delà de la périphérie de l'élément. · Lors de l'utilisation de grosses marmites, par exemple pour la préparation de conserves, utiliser l'élément spécial conçu pour la préparation de conserves (modèle CE1). Prendre contact avec le détaillant pour obtenir des détails, ou composer le 1-877-232-6771 aux É.-U. ou le 1-800-688-8408 au Canada pour passer commande. · Nettoyer fréquemment. (Voir page 43.) Mise en place : Introduire les bornes de l'élément dans la prise. Guider pour la mise en place. Abaisser l'élément pour le placer d'aplomb en appui sur la cuvette de récupération. BORNES Cuvettes de récupération Les cuvettes de récupération sous chaque élément de surface recueillent les aliments qui ont débordé. Il faut toujours les utiliser. L'absence de cuvettes de récupération pendant la cuisson peut endommager les fils électriques. Pour ne pas introduire un risque de choc électrique, ou d'incendie, ne jamais garnir les cuvettes de récupération de feuille d'aluminium. Les cuvettes de récupération vont se décolorer (taches bleues / dorées) ou se fendiller à la longue si elles sont surchauffées. La décoloration ou le fendillement sont permanents, mais n'affectent pas la performance de cuisson. 30 Cuisson dans le four Commandes du four à nettoyage manuel (certains modèles) A B C D E F REMARQUE : L'afficheur indique 12:00 lorsque l'appareil est branché la première fois ou en cas de panne de courant.
