aerosol-type spray cans are EXPLOSIVE when
exposed to heat and may be highly ammable.
Avoid their use or storage near an appliance.
Many plastics will burn and most are damaged by heat. Keep
plastic items away from parts of the range that may become
warm or hot. Do not leave plastic items on the cooktop as
they may burn, melt or soften if left too close to a vent or a
lighted burner.
Storage should not be installed directly above a range. If
anything is stored above the range, it should be limited to
infrequently used items, which can be safely stored in an area
subjected to heat from a range. Temperatures may be unsafe
for some items such as volatile liquids, cleaners or aerosol
sprays.
Make sure all packaging materials have been removed.
Destroy the carton and plastic bags after unpacking the
range. Never allow children to play with packaging material.
Never use this appliance as a space heater to heat or
n
warm the room. Doing so may result in overheating
of the oven and control knobs.
Never cover any slots, holes or passages in the oven
n
bottom or cover an entire rack with materials such
as aluminum foil. Doing so blocks airow through
the oven. Aluminum foil linings may also trap heat
causing a re hazard.
Ensure your installer shows you where and how to
disconnect the power to the range at the circuit breaker
or fuse box. And how to turn o the gas supply in case of
an emergency
In Case of Fire
DO NOT use water on grease res. Never pick up a
n
aming pan. Turn the controls o. Smother a aming
pan on a cooktop burner by covering the pan
completely with a well tting lid or baking tray. If
available use a multi-purpose dry chemical or foamtype re extinguisher.

Let hot air and steam escape before removing or
n
replacing food.
Cooktop Burners
Quality of Flames
On Natural Gas the burners’ ames should be a bluish color
with, at most, a slight yellowish fringe.
On Propane gas the ames may be “softer”. The cooktop
burner ames may have a slight yellowish tip.
If the ame burns with a long white tip you should call for
service.
If the ame is distorted, check that the burner head is
correctly placed over the burner.
MAKE SURE THE FLOW OF COMBUSTION AND
VENTILATION AIR TO THE RANGE IS UNOBSTRUCTED.
Use the Right Size Pan
This appliance is equipped with burners of dierent sizes.
Use utensils with at bottoms. Do not use unstable pans and
position the handles away from the edge of the cooktop.
Make sure the ames are under the pans. It is not safe to let
the ames burn up the sides of the pan; the handle may get
too hot.
Proper relationship of utensil to burner will also improve
eciency.
NEVER leave cooktop burners unattended at high
n
settings. Pans boiling over can cause smoking and
greasy spills may catch on re.
Protective liners – DO NOT use aluminum foil to
n
line cooktop bowls or oven bottoms. Foil liners
may result in a risk of electric shock, or re and will
damage the enamel nish. Never allow aluminum
foil to contact the heating elements.
DO NOT use cooktop protectors, foil or cooktop
n
covers of any description. These may aect the safe
use of your cooktop burners and are potentially
hazardous to health.
Glazed cooking utensils – Only certain types of glass,
n
glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed
utensils are suitable for range-top use without
breaking due to the sudden change in temperature.
Utensil handles should be turned inward and not
n
over adjacent burners. If handles are left over
adjacent burners they will get hot and may burn.
Use of aluminum pans may cause metallic marking
n
of the grates. This does not aect the durability of
the enamel and may be cleaned o with a metal
polish.
DO NOT drop or rest objects on the door glass.
n
Although the glass is very strong, a sharp blow or a
falling object might cause the glass surface to crack
or break.
Never heat unopened food containers. Pressure
n
build up may make container burst and cause injury.
Keep oven vent ducts unobstructed.
n
DO NOT place aluminum foil on bottom of oven
n
cavity. This will cause the oven bottom to overheat
and void warranty.
DO NOT clean the door gasket: the door gasket is
n
essential for a good seal. Care should be taken not to
rub, damage or move the gasket.
DO NOT use oven cleaners: no commercial oven
n
cleaner or oven liner protective coating of any kind
should be used in or around any part of the oven.
Clean only parts listed in this User Guide.
n
DO NOT use a steam cleaner on your range.
n
Placement of Oven Racks
Always place oven racks in desired location while
n
oven is cool. If rack must be moved while oven is hot,
do not let potholder contact hot heating element in
oven.
CAUTION!
n
DO NOT store items of interest to children in
cabinets above a range or on the backguard of a
range – children climbing on the range to reach
items could be seriously injured.
General Safety Instructions
This appliance must be installed by a competent person in
accordance with the installation instructions. The installation
must comply with the relevant regulations and also the local
electricity supply company requirements.
This appliance is designed for domestic cooking only. Use for
any other purpose could invalidate any warranty or liability
claim.
The use of a gas cooking appliance results in the production
of heat and moisture in the room in which it is installed.
Ensure that the kitchen is well ventilated: keep natural
ventilation holes open or install a mechanical ventilation
device, (mechanical extractor hood).
Prolonged intensive use of the appliance may call for
additional ventilation, for example opening a window, or
more eective ventilation, for example increasing the level of
mechanical ventilation where present.
3
This appliance should not be installed with any
n
ventilation system that blows air downward toward
the gas cooking appliance. This type of ventilation
system may cause ignition and combustion
problems with the gas cooking appliance resulting
in personal injury or unintended operation.
Ventilating systems that direct the air upwards can
be used.
The range should be serviced by a qualied service engineer
and only approved parts used. Have the installer show you
the location of the range circuit breaker. Mark it for easy
reference. Always allow the range to cool and then switch
o at the circuit breaker before cleaning or carrying out any
maintenance work, unless specied otherwise in this guide.
All parts of the range become hot with use and will
n
retain heat even after you have stopped cooking.
Take care when touching range, to minimize the
n
possibility of burns, always be certain that the
controls are in the OFF position and that it is cool
before attempting to clean the range.
Clean with caution. If a wet sponge or cloth is used to wipe
spills on a hot surface, be careful to avoid steam burns. Some
cleaners can produce noxious fumes if applied to a hot
surface.
Clean only parts listed in this guide.
In the interests of hygiene and safety the range should be
kept clean at all times as a build up in fats and other food
stu could result in a re.
When cooking foods with high water content (e.g. oven fries)
there may be some steam visible at the rear grille.
Take care when opening the oven door, as there may be a
momentary pu of steam when the oven door is opened.
Stand well back and allow any steam to disperse.
When an oven is on, do not use the top of the ue (the holes
along the back of the range) for warming plates, dishes,
drying dish towels or softening butter.
When using an electrical appliance near the cooktop, be sure
that the cord of the appliance does not come into contact
with the cooktop.
Take care that no water seeps into the appliance.
Make sure that your kitchen is well ventilated at all times. Use
extractor fans or hoods when installed.
The range is designed for cooking foods only and must not
be used for any other purpose.
The oven should NOT be used for heating the kitchen: not
only does this waste fuel but the control knobs may become
overheated.
When the oven is on DO NOT leave the oven door open for
longer than necessary.
The specication of this range should not be altered.
This appliance is heavy, take care when moving it.
When the range is not in use ensure that the control knobs
are in the o position.
Always keep combustible wall coverings or curtains etc. a safe
distance away from your range.
DO NOT spray aerosols in the vicinity of the range
n
while it is in use.
Do not store or use combustible materials, or ammable
liquids in the vicinity of this appliance.
Take great care when heating fats and oils, as they will ignite
if they get too hot.
Use a deep fat thermometer whenever possible to prevent
overheating fat beyond the smoking point.
Never leave a deep fry pan unattended. Always
n
heat fat slowly, and watch as it heats. Deep fry pans
should be only a maximum of one third full of fat.
Filling the pan too full of fat can cause spill over
when food is added. If you use a combination of oils
or fats in frying, stir them together before heating,
or as the fats melt.
Foods for frying should be as dry as possible. Frost on frozen
foods or moisture on fresh foods can cause hot fat to bubble
up and over the sides of the pan. Carefully watch for spills or
overheating of foods when frying at high or medium high
temperatures. Never try to move a pan of hot fat, especially a
deep fry pan. Wait until the fat is cool.

The 30” gas range (Fig. 2.1) has the following features:
A. 4 cooktop burners
B. Continuous cast iron grates
C. Control panel
D. 30” oven
Cooktop Burners
Note: Before using the cooktop make sure all burners are in
place and all the grates on the range are properly placed.
The drawing by each knob indicates which burner that knob
controls.
When a cooktop control knob is pressed in, sparks will be
made at every burner – this is normal. Do not attempt to
disassemble or clean around any burner while another
burner is on, otherwise an electric shock could result.
To light a burner, push in the selected burner control knob
and turn it to the high position, as indicated by the
symbol (Fig. 2.2).
Fig. 2.2
The igniter should spark and light the gas. Keep holding the
knob pressed in until ignited.

Fig. 2.3
Fig. 2.4
Adjust the ame height to suit by turning the knob counterclockwise (Fig. 2.3). On this range the low position is beyond
high, NOT between high and o. The ‘LO’ marks the low
position. This setting is ideal for simmering.
If a burner ame goes out, the burner will detect this, and
automatically relight. However, if there has been a large
spill or boil-over, we recommend turning the burner o and
cleaning the area, before relighting.
If a burner does not ignite within four seconds, turn o
the control knob and leave it for ve minutes, before
relighting it.
Make sure ames are under the pans (Fig. 2.4). For safety
reasons, adjust the ames so that they do not extend beyond
the edge of the cooking utensil. Using a lid will help the
contents boil more quickly.

Large pans should be spaced well apart.
Pans and kettles with concave bases or down-turned base
rims should not be used (Fig. 2.5).
Simmering aids, such as asbestos or mesh mats, are
NOT recommended (Fig. 2.6). They will reduce burner
performance and could damage the grates.
Avoid using unstable or misshapen pans that may tilt easily
and pans with a very small base diameter e.g. milk pans,
single egg poachers (Fig. 2.7).
Igniting Cooktop Burners without Electricity
If there is a power failure the cooktop burners can be lit with
a match.
1. Hold a burning match ½” from the burner head, keeping
your hand as far horizontally away from the burner as
possible.
2. Push and turn the burner control knob to HI/lighting
position. As soon as the burner ame lights move your
hand away.
3. Turn the burner control knob to the OFF position when
you have nished using it.
