Only some kinds of glass or ceramic pans can be used for cooktop cooking. Be sure that the pan you use will not break when heated on the cooktop elements.

Never try to clean utensils, cookware or removable parts of your range In the oven during a self-clean cycle. Never rub, move, or damage the door gasket on self- cleaning oven. The gasket Is essential for a good seal.

Never use the cooktop without reflector pans or drip bowls in place. If these pans or bowls are not there during cooking, wiring or other range parts may be damaged.
