Cooktop Use

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

Ceramic Glass (on some models)

The surface cooking area will glow red when an element is on.Some parts of the surface cooking area may not glow red when an element is on. This is normal operation. It will also randomly cycle off and back on again, even while on High, to keep the cooktop from extreme temperatures.

It is normal for the surface of light-colored ceramic glass to appear to change color when surface cooking areas are hot. As the glass cools, it will return to its original color.

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

IMPORTANT: 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 using a scraper 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. Aluminum or copper bottoms and rough finishes on cookware or bakeware could leave scratches or marks on the cooktop.
  • Do not cook popcorn in prepackaged aluminum containers on the cooktop. They could leave aluminum marks that cannot be removed completely.
  • 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 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″ (13 mm) outside the area.A. Surface cooking areaB. Cookware/cannerC. 1/2″ (13 mm) maximum overhang
  • 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 rulers
  • across the bottom of the cookware. While you rotate the ruler, no space or light should be visible between it and the cookware.
  • Cookware designed with slightly indented bottoms or small expansion channels can be used.
  • Make sure the bottoms of pots and pans are clean and dry before using them. Residue and water can leave deposits when heated.
  • To avoid damage to the cooktop, do not cook foods directly on the cooktop

Coil Elements and Burner Bowls (on some models)

Coil elements should be level for optimal cooking results. Burner bowls, when clean, reflect heat back to the cookware. They also help catch spills.Cookware should not extend more than 1/2″ (1.3 cm) over the coil element. If cookware is uneven or too large, it can produce excess heat, causing the burner bowl to change color.

  • Weight of the Cookware to be no Lighter than 1 lb.
  • Discoloration of Medallion of the Coil Element is expected over time.
  • Starting in June 2018 Maytag is equipping this product with new temperature-limiting coils pursuant to the updated standards in UL858. These new coils may vary cooking times compared to your old cooktop, e.g., a slightly longer time to boil large volumes of water.
Cooktop On Indicator Light

The Cooktop On indicator light is located on the console panel.When any control knob/cooktop element on the console panel is turned on, the Cooktop On indicator light will glow.

Hot Surface Indicator LightOn ceramic glass models, the hot surface indicator light is located on the console panel.The hot surface indicator light will glow as long as any surface cooking area is too hot to touch, even after the surface cooking area is turned off.

Dual Zone Cooking Element (on some models)The Dual Zone cooking element offers flexibility depending on the size of the cookware. Single size can be used in the same way as a regular element. The dual size combines both the single and outer elements and is recommended for larger size cookware.Melt Cooking Element (on some models)The Melt cooking element offers flexibility due to a wide range of settings between HI and Melt. The HI heat option can be used to boil small amounts of liquid quickly. The lowest setting can be used to prepare sauces and to keep foods at a low temperature. Use cookware appropriate in size for the Melt element.

Warming Center (on some models)Use the cooktop Warming Center to keep cooked foods warm. One hour is the recommended maximum time to maintain food quality.Do not use it to heat cold foods.The Warming Center can be used alone or when any of the other surface cooking areas are being used.The Warming Center area will not glow red when cycling on.However, the Cooktop On indicator light will be displayed when the Warm Zone is in use.

  • Use only cookware recommended for oven and cooktop use.
  • Cover all foods with a lid or aluminum foil. When warming baked goods, allow a small opening in the cover for moisture to escape.
  • To avoid damage to the cooktop, do not use plastic wrap to cover food because the plastic wrap may melt.
  • Use pot holders or oven mitts to remove food.

To Use:

  1. To turn on, press WARMING CENTER and then the Start keypad.
  2. To turn off, press WARMING CENTER.

Cookware

IMPORTANT: Do not leave empty cookware on a hot surface cooking area, element or surface burner.Ideal cookware should have a flat bottom, straight sides and a well-fitting lid, and the material should be of medium-to-heavy thickness.Rough finishes may scratch the cooktop. Aluminum and copper may be used as a core or base in cookware. However, when used as a base, they can leave permanent marks on the surfaces. Cookware material is a factor in how quickly and evenly heat is transferred, which affects cooking results. A nonstick finish has the same characteristics as its base material. For example, aluminum cookware with a nonstick finish will take on the properties of aluminum.Cookware with nonstick surfaces should not be used under the broiler.Check for 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.

Use the following chart as a guide for cookware material characteristics

COOKWARE CHARACTERISTICS
Aluminum
  • Heats quickly and evenly.
  • Suitable for all types of cooking.
  • Medium or heavy thickness is best for most cooking tasks.
  • May leave aluminum residues, which may be diminished if cleaned immediately after cooking.
Cast iron
  • Heats slowly and evenly.
  • Good for browning and frying.
  • Maintains heat for slow cooking.
  • Rough edges or burrs may scratch the cooktop.
Ceramic or Ceramic glass
  • Follow manufacturer’s instructions.
  • Heats slowly, but unevenly.
  • Ideal results on low to medium heat settings.
  • May scratch the cooktop.
Copper
  • Heats very quickly and evenly.
  • May leave copper residues, which may be diminished if cleaned immediately after cooking
  • Can leave a permanent stain or bond to the cooktop if overheated.
Earthenware
  • Follow manufacturer’s instructions.
  • Use on low heat settings.
  • May scratch the cooktop
Porcelain enamel-on steel or cast iron
  • See stainless steel or cast iron.
  • Porcelain enamel bakeware without the metal base may bond to the cooktop if overheated.
Stainless steel
  • Heats quickly, but unevenly.
  • A core or base of aluminum or copper on stainless steel provides even heating.

Use flat-bottomed cookware for best cooking results and energy efficiency. The cookware should be about the same size as the cooking area outlined on the cooktop. Cookware should not extend more than 1/2″ (1.3 cm) outside the area.

Home Canning

Canning can be performed on a glass smooth top cooking surface or traditional coil element 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

Positioning Racks and Bakeware

To move a rack, pull it out to the stop position, raise the front edge, and then lift it out. Use the following illustration and chart as a guide for positioning racks.

Rack Position Type of Food
5 Broiling/searing meats, hamburgers, steaks, or toast.
4 Broiling thicker cuts of meat, poultry, fish.
3 or 4 Frozen prepackaged foods, most baked goods, and casseroles.
1 or 2 Large roasts or poultry

Multiple Rack Cooking2-rack: Use rack positions 2 and 4 or 2 and 5.BakewareTo cook food evenly, hot air must be able to circulate. Allow2″ (5 cm) of space around bakeware and oven walls. Make sure that no bakeware piece is directly over another.

Baking and Roasting

PreheatingWhen beginning a Bake 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 rack 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 TemperatureWhile 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.

Temperature Management SystemThe 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.

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.IMPORTANT: 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 racks 4 or 5 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.

NOTE: Odors and smoke are normal the first few times the oven is used or if the oven is heavily soiled.
