Self-Cleaning Technology
AquaLift
®
Self-Cleaning Technology is a first-of-its-kind cleaning
solution designed to minimize the time, temperature, and odors
that ordinarily come with traditional self-cleaning methods. With
AquaLift
®
Self-Cleaning Technology, an exclusive coating on the
interior of the oven, is activated with heat and water to release
baked-on soil. To use AquaLift
®
Self-Cleaning Technology, simply
wipe out loose debris, pour water into the oven bottom, and run
the AquaLift
®
Self-Cleaning cycle. When the cycle finishes in under
1 hour at a lower temperature than in traditional self-cleaning
methods, just wipe out the remaining water and loose debris.
See the “Clean Cycle” section for more detailed instructions. For
additional information, frequently asked questions, and videos

Surface Temperatures
When the range is in use, all range surfaces may become hot,
such as the knobs and oven door.
Baking Drawer
When the oven is in use, the drawer may become hot. Do not store
plastics, cloth, or other items that could melt or burn in the drawer.
Oven Vent
The oven vent releases hot air and moisture from the oven and
should not be blocked or covered. Do not set plastics, paper, or
other items that could melt or burn near the oven vent.
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.
Surface Burners
The burner bases and caps must be properly positioned before
cooking. Your range comes with 3 sizes of burners and caps.
Each round burner base is marked with a letter indicating the
burner size. Align the burner bases as shown in the following
illustration:
Align the gas tube opening in the burner base with the orifice
holder on the cooktop and the igniter electrode with the notch in
the burner base.
Place the burner caps on the appropriate burner bases. Each
round burner cap is marked with a letter indicating the burner size.
Burner caps should be level when properly positioned. If burner
caps are not properly positioned, surface burners will not light.
The burner cap should not rock or wobble when properly aligned.
