OPERATING YOUR GAS RANGE
Before operating the unit, read this section thoroughly. The first time the burners are operated, a small amount of smoke may be generated due to burning of grease on the burners, especially on oven and broiler burners. This is not dangerous. For that reason, it is advisable to operate the burners without any cooking purpose for 10 minutes. 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 counterclockwise. Keep the control knob depressed for 10 seconds after lighting.
Check that the burner is lit (Figure 7),
> 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-i
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO OPERATE ANY SURFACE BURNER WITHOUT INSTALLING IT. OTHERWISE, THERE IS A RISK OF EXPLOSION.
First, they must be installed correctly, as seen in Figure 6. The ring and its cap must be in its place. The burners should be level with the surface of
The cookware supports must be in place on the cooktop. These plastic rings are already in place and are used to prevent rocking as shown in Figure 8.'Extra rings are supplied for your convenience. Use stable cookware with a flat bottom and always place the utensil 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 9.
____________________________________
1
Fiii. 8
There is a symbol over the knob on control panel in order 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.
To Light a Desired Surface Burner
• Push the control knob in.
• After the burner ignites, turn the knob counterclockwise 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.
• To turn the burner off, turn the knob clockwise until it reaches the (•) symbol.
The oven is controlled by a knob located at left side of control panel. (See Figures 9&10) This knob has two functions.
■ To control oven burner. (GR-20 and DGR-21A)
■ To control broiling burner. (DGR-21A ONLY) 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.
lO
Using Your Oven
• Open oven door to confirm nothing is stored in oven cavity and set racks to proper height.
• Push the oven knob in and turn it counterclockwise to the desired temperature.
• Observe that the oven burner is lit. Wait for ten seconds for the heating of flame failure device, then release the knob. Never pull up or out the bottom panel of the oven for observation or operation of oven. Always, make use of slots on the bottom panel of oven
for observation.
• It is usually necessary to preheat the oven. Close the oven door and wait for 10-20
minutes depending on desired temperature, then place food in the oven.
• When selected temperature is reached, the burner will maintain it.
• Do not forget that because the heat rises, the top of the oven will always be hotter than
the bottom.
• After cooking time elapses, remove food and turn oven knob to OFF position, until you hear a second dick.
> Oven Light f DGR-21A only)
The switch located at the extreme left of the control panel turns the oven light on and off (See
Figure 9). When the button is depressed, the light will be on.
> Clock/Timer fPGR-21A only)
The clock/timer serves two functions: as a clock and as a cooking timer. It does not control the oven or the cooktop. You set the timer to remind you of a desired time, at which a buzzer will sound. To set the clock (See Figure 11):
Depress the button located below the TIME display and turn it to the right until the correct time Is displayed on the clock.
Release the button.
To set the cooking time:
Turn the button located at the left of the TIME display (do not depress it) until the desired start time of cooking is displayed on the clock.
Keep in mind that the timer function does not control the oven functions or actual cooking
time. It will alert you when the desired time has passed with a bell.
11
Operation of Broiler Burner
The knob controlling the oven burner is also used for operating the
broiler burner. (See Figure 9) When the knob is turned in clockwise direction, it controls the broiler.
When the knob is'turned in the counter-clockwise direction, the oven
is engaged. Those burners do not run simultaneously. The broiling burner has one position. It is full on. The burner can not be set to other heat outputs.
To operate the broiler burner:
Open oven door to confirm nothing is stored in oven cavity.
Place the heat deflector panel, as shown in figure 12.
A WARNINGS
If the heat deflector is not in place, the control panel will overheat. This could damage the control knobs, and creates risk of burn injury.
Place food on a cold ungreased broiling pan and set rack to
proper height.
Close the oven door, until it touches the heat deflector panel.
Push the oven knob forward. Ignition starts.
Turn it in the clockwise direction to BROIL position without releasing the knob.
Observe that the broiler burner is lit. Wait ten seconds for the heating of flame
failure device, then release the knob.
Broiling does not require preheating. All food should be turned at least once. When the food is cooked enough, remove the food and turn the knob to ‘OFF’ position.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
The appliance should be cleaned regularly for long-term operation. Make sure that all parts of the range are cool before cleaning.
> Removing the Oven Door for Cleaning
Open the door fully. There is a small ring on each hinge. Pull the ring over the claw-like hook, which is part of the hinge mechanism. Do not forget to do this on both hinges before the next step. (See Figure 13) Raise the door slightly and puli it straight outwards away from the oven. The door will come completely off.
When replacing the door, locate it back into the hinge holes. Pull 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 steps all above steps.
