SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

After prolonged use of a range, high floor temperatures may result. Many floor covering's will not
withstand this kind of use. Before installing your range on linoleum or any other synthetic floor
covering, make sure the floor covering can withstand 100'* without shrinking, warping or discoloring.

Do not install the range over carpeting unless a sheet of V4" thick plywood or similar insulator is

placed between the range and carpeting.

Do not leave children alone or unattended where a range is hot or in operation.

Never use your appliance for heating the room. Your oven and cooktop are not designed to heat your
kitchen. Top burners should not be operated without cookware.
Do not let cooking grease accumulate in or near the range.
Never pick up a flaming pan. Turn the controls off.
Smother a flaming pan on a surface unit by covering the pan completely with a well fitting lid.
Do not use water on grease fires. Flaming grease outside a pan can be put out by covering it with
baking soda, multipurpose dry chemical, or fire extinguisher. Flame in the oven can be smothered
completely by closing the oven door'and turnirtg the oven off or by using baking soda, multipurpose
dry chemical, or fire extinguisher.
Do not store or use combustable materials in an oven, broiler, storage drawer, or near the cooktbp.
Never wear loose fitting or hanging garments while using the appliance. Be careful when reaching for
items stored in cabinets over the cooktop. Flammable material could be ignited if brought in contact

with flames or hot oven surfaces and may cause severe burns.
Never leave the surface burners unattended at high flame settings.Boilovers cause smoking and
greasy spillovers may catch fire.
Adjust the top burner flame size so it does not extend beyond the edge of the cookware.Excessive
flame is hazardous.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS continued...

Use only dry pot hciders-moist or damp potholders on hot surfaces may result in burns from steam.

Do not let potholders come near open flames when lifting cookware.
Turn cookware hancies toward the side or back of the range without letting them extend over
adjacent burners, tc .minimize the possibility of burns.
Always turn the surface burners to OFF before removing cookware.
Never block the vents (air openings) of the range. They provide the air inlet and outlet that are
necessary for the ra.nge to operate properly with correct combustion.
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. Use the least possible amount of fat for
effective shallow or beep-fat frying. Filling the pan too full of fat can cause spillovers when food is

added.
If a combination of oils or fats will be caused in frying, stir together before heating or as fats melt
slowly.

Always heat fat slowly and watch as it heats.

Use a deep-fat thermometer whenever possible to prevent overheating fat beyond the smoking point.
Never try to move a pan of hot fat; especially a deep fat fryer. Wait until the fat is cool.

When using glass cookware, make sure it is designed for top-of-range cooking.

Use proper pan size. Avoid pans that are unstable or easily tipped. Select cookware having fiat

bottoms large enough to properly contain food and avoid botlovers and spillovers.

Do not leave any kerns on the cooktop. The hot air from the vent may ignite flammable items and will
increase pressure ir closed containers, which may cause them to burst.
Do not use the oven as a storage area. Items stored in the oven can ignite.
Stand away from the range when opening the door of a hot oven. The hot air and steam that escape
can cause burns to hands, face, and eyes.
Keep the oven free тот grease buildup.
Place the oven shelves in the desired position while the oven is cool.
Do not heat unopened food containers. Pressure could build up and the container could burst,
causing an injury.
Do not use aluminum foil anywhere in the oven except as described in the manual. Misuse could
result in a fire hazarc or damage to the range.
When using cooking or roasting bags in the oven, follow the manufacturer instructions.
Use only glass cock.vare that is recommended for use in gas ovens.
When broiling, if meat is too close to the flame, the fat may ignite. Trim excess fat to prevent

excessive flare-ups

Never entirely cove.' э shelf with aluminum foil. This will disturb the heat circulation and result in poor
baking. '

Your oven temperature s controlled very accurateiy using an oven control system. It is recommended
that you operate the eve:" for a number of weeks to become familiar with your new oven’s performance.

To avoid possible corns, place the shelves in the correct position before you turn the oven on.
Close the oven doer Turn the oven set knob to the temperature you desire.
Check the food for ceneness at the minimum time on the recipe. Cook longer if necessary.
Turn the oven set kreb to off and then remove the food.
Stand away from the range when opening the door of a hot oven. The hot air and steam that escape

can cause burns tc "ands. face, and eyes.

OPERATING YOUR GAS RANGE

Before operating the unit, read this section thoroughly.
The first time the burners are used, a small amount of
smoke may be generated due to burning of grease on the
burners, especially on oven and broiler burners. VThis is not
dangerous. For that reason, the burners must be operated
without any cooking purpose for 10 minutes for the first
time. This range is equipped with an electric ignition

system to ignite the burners. Therefore, it must be
supplied with electricity. If any electric power failure
occurs, using a match can ignite the burners. A constant
supply of air is needed for combustion. Therefore, allow
sufficient ventilation into the room where the range is
placed.

Manual Lighting Of The Oven Burner During Power Outage

You should place a lighted match next to the entrance of the burner hole. Depress the oven burner knob
and turn counter-clockwise. Keep the control knob depressed for 10 seconds after lighting. Check that
the burner is lit (Figure 5). Use extreme caution when lighting burners in this manner.

^ Operation of Surface Burners

There are 3 different types of surface burners with different size and heat output on the cook
top.
A rapid burner (Front Right)
Two semi-rapid burners (Back)
A simmer burner (Front Left)

A WARNING L-

DO NOT ATTEMPT TO OPERATE ANY SURFACE BURNER WITHOUT

INSTALLING IT. OTHERWISE. THERE IS A RISK OF EXPLOSION.

• First, the surface burners must be installed correctly, as seen in Figure 5.

• The ring and its cap must be in its place. The burners should be level with the surface of
the main top.

• The cookware supports must be in their places on the cook top. These plastic rings are
already in place and are used to prevent rocking as shown in Figure 6. Use stable
cookware with a fiat bottom and always place the utensils on the cookware supports before
lighting the burner.

• The surface burners are controlled by knobs located on control panel at front side of the
appliance, as seen in Figure 7.

• There is a symbol over the knob ofi the control panel to identify which knob controls which
burner. Also, there is a symbol indicator on the knobs, to aid in setting the burner to the

desired temperature.

r

l60n08SRO

> To Light the Desired Surface Burner

• Push the control knob in.

• After the burner ignites, turn the knob counter-clockwise without releasing it to adjust the
flame size. Then release the knob.

• For maximum heat output, align the large flame symbol on the knob with the vertical line
on the control panel. In order to decrease the heat output, turn the knob in the direction of
the small flame symbol. For minimum heat output, align the small flame symbol on the
knob with the vertical line on the control panel.

• The amount of food being cooked, the amount of liquid, or the size of the pan should
determine the heat settings. Always position the utensil on the burner grate before
lighting the burner. For your safety, the flame should not extend beyond the sides of the
pan. Any flame larger than the bottom of the cookware is wasted and only heats the
handle.

• To turn the burner off. turn the knob clockwise until it reaches the (•) symbol.

• Before lighting a burner.

• Make sure all grates on the range are in place before using any.burner.

• After the burner ignites, turn the knob to adjust the flame size.' Watch the flame not the

knob, as you adjust the heat.

• In case of power failure.

• You can light the surface burners on your range with a match. Hold a lighted match to

the burner, and then turn the knob to the ON position. Use extreme caution when

lighting burners in this manner.

• Surface burners in use when an electrical power failure occurs will continue to operate

normally.
NOTE: The electrode of the spark igniter is exposed. When one burner is turned to ON, ail the
burners spark. Do not disassemble or clean around any burner while another burner is on. An

electric shock may result, which could cause you to knock over hot cookware.

Operating Your Oven Burner

• The oven is controlled by a knob located at left side of control panel. (See Figures 7 & 8)

• This knob has two functions.

■ To control oven burner.
» To control broiling burner.

• When the knob is turned in a counterclockwise direction, it controls the oven. When the
knob is turned in the clockwise direction, the broiler is engaged. Those burners do not
run simultaneously.

• The oven burner is controlled by a thermostat and has a flame failure device. The
numbers on the knob indicate the temperature in the center of oven cavity in degrees of
Fahrenheit.

. A WARNING S- The maximum amount of weight placed on to the oven shelf must not exceed 30 lbs.

• When replacing the door, locate it back g]to the hinge holes. Figure

Puli it down fully and slip the rings off the claw-like hooks.

• Close the door and make sure that it sits in place fully. If not, repeat all above steps. 'L'

^ Cleaning Your Oven

The oven door glass (G24CW and DG24CSS) should be cleaned regularly with a non-abrasive
liquid cleaner. Rinse with a damp cloth and then a dry one. The enameled and metal parts of

the oven should be cleaned with hot water and suitable liquid enamel cleaner.

Do not use harsh abrasive cleaners on the enameled panels.

13

160T1C85.ro

^ Cleaning the Knobs and Control Panel

• Pull forward on the knobs to remove them.

• Wash in a water solution with a mild detergent mix. Do not use an abrasive cleaner or abrasive
action. Abrasive action will scratch away the knob markings.

• The control panel should be cleaned by using a damp cloth with mild detergent. Never rinse with
an abrasive cleaner or use abrasive action.

^ Cleaning the Cooking Supports. Cook top, Backauard and Surface Burners

• Utensil supports are made of enamel-coated steel.

• They can be cleaned at the sink with detergent or soap-filled scouring pads. They can also be put
in a dishwasher.

• The cooktop and backguard are also made of enamel-coated steel. They should be cleaned with
hot water and suitable liquid enamel cleaner.

• The aluminum burner rings may be damaged if soaked or put into a dishwasher. They should be
washed with a fine soapy wire wool.

• The burner caps are made of enameled sheet. It can be cleaned in the same manner as utensil
supports. It is very important that the burner is dry before replacing it in the range. A wet burner
will not allow the gas to ignite piroperly.

HELPFUL HINTS.,.

Aluminum; Medium-weight cookware is recommended because it heats quickly and evenly. Most foods,
brown evenly in an aluminum skillet. Use saucepans with tight-fitting lids when cooking with minimum
amounts of water.

Cast-iron: If heated slowly, most skillets will give satisfactory results.
Enameiware: Under some conditions, the enamel of some cookware may melt,

manufacturer's recommendations for cooking methods.
Glass: There are two types of glass cookware - those for oven use only and those for top-of-range

cooking (saucepans, coffee and teapots).
Heatproof Glass Ceramic; Can be used for either surface or oven cooking. It conducts heat very slowly

and cools very slowly. Check cookware manufacturer's direction to be sure it can be used on gas ranges.
Stainless Steel: This metal alone has poor heating properties and is usually combined wjth copper,

aluminum or other metals for improved heat distribution. Combination metal skillets generally work
satisfactorily if used at medium heat as the manufacturer recommends.

Stove top grills: Do not use stove top grills on your sealed gas burners. If you use the stove top grill on
the sealed gas burner it will cause incomplete combustion and can result in exposure to carbon monoxide
levels above allowable current standards. This can be hazardous to your health.

f

Follow cookware

к

Preheat the oven if the recipe calls for it. Preheat means bringing the oven up to the specified
temperature before putting the food in the oven. To preheat, set the oven at the correct temperature .(о/
10-20 minutes- selecting a higher temperature does not shorten preheat time. Preheating is necessa^
for good results when baking cakes, cookies, pastry, and breads. For most casseroles and roasts,
preheating is not necessary.

Converting Gas Type

This range arrives from factory, adjusted for use with Natural Gas. The setting is
indicated on the nameplate. It is important that the range is converted, if the factory

adjusted gas type is not desired.
To avoid electric shock that can cause personal injury or death, disconnect the appliance
from the electric outlet before servicing.

> Converting Pressure Regulator

The gas pressure regulator must be set for the
type of gas being used. The inlet pressure of the
gas supply shall be in accordance with the
nominal inlet pressure of the regulator used on
the range or 1/2 psi (3.5 kPa) pressure
maximum. On the factory setting for Natural Gas

operation, the pressure regulator will regulate the
pressure to 6 inches water column pressure.
When set for LP-Propane gas operation, it will
regulate the pressure to 10 inches water column
pressure.

To change the pressure regulator setting;

• Unplug the main supply cord of the range.

• Unscrew the cap on the pressure regulator

• Lift out cap and turn it over. If set for LP-Propane gas operation, the cap
must show ”LP”. if set for Natural Gas operation, the cap must show none.

• Place the cap on pressure regulator and tighten. (See Figure 1)
