IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING
YOUR GAS COOKTOP
Use Proper Flame Size — Adjust flame size so
it does not extend beyond the edge of the
utensil. The use of undersized utensils will
expose a portion of the burner flame to direct
contact and may result in ignition of clothing.
Proper relationship of utensil to flame will also
improve efficiency.
Know which knob or key controls each surface
heating area. Place cookware with food on the
cooking area before turning it on. Turn the
cooking area off before removing the cookware.
Use proper pan size. This appliance is equipped
with one or more surface units of different sizes.
Select cookware with flat bottoms that match the
surface unit heating element. The use of undersized cookware may expose a portion of the
flame to direct contact and may result in the
ignition of clothing or other items. Using the
proper cookware on the cooking areas will
improve efficiency.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
To reduce the risk of burns, ignition of flammable
materials, and spillage due to unintentional
contact with the utensil, the handle of the utensil
should be positioned so that it is turned inward,
and does not extend over adjacent surface
burners
Never leave surface burners unattended at high
heat settings — Boil overs cause smoking and
greasy spill overs that may ignite, or a pan that
has boiled dry may melt.
Glazed cooking utensils — Only certain types of
glass, glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or
other glazed utensils are suitable for cook top
service without breaking due to the sudden
change in temperature. Check the manufacturer’s
recommendations for cook top use.
When you are flaming foods under a ventilating
hood, turn the fan on.
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING YOUR OVEN
Protective liners—Do not use aluminum foil, aftermarket oven liners, or any other materials or
devices to line oven bottom, oven racks, or any
other part of the appliance. Only use aluminum as
recommended for baking, such as lining
cookware or as a cover placed on food. Any other
use of protective liners or aluminum foil may
result in a risk of electric shock or fire or a short
circuit.
Use care when opening oven door, lower oven
door, or warmer drawer (some models). Stand to
the side of the appliance when opening the door
of a hot oven. Let hot air or steam escape before
you remove or replace food in the oven.
Always turn knob to the full LITE position when
igniting top burners. Visually check that burner
has lit. Then adjust the flame so it does not
extend beyond the edge of the utensil.
Keep oven vent ducts unobstructed. Touching
surfaces in this area when the oven is on may
cause severe burns. Do not place plastic or heatsensitive items on or near the oven vent. These
items can melt or ignite.

Cookware Material Types
The cookware material determines how evenly and quickly
heat is transferred from the surface burner to the pan
bottom. The most popular materials available are:
• Aluminum - Excellent heat conductor. Some types of
food will cause it to darken (Anodized aluminum
cookware resists staining and pitting).
• Copper - Excellent heat conductor but discolors easily
(See Aluminum).
• Stainless - Slow heat conductor with uneven cooking
results. Is durable, easy to clean and resists staining.
•Cast Iron - A slow heat conductor that retains heat very
well. Cooks evenly once cooking temperature is
reached.
• Porcelain-enamel on metal - Heating characteristics
will vary depending on base material.
•Glass - Slow heat conductor.
Gas surface burner types
The cooktop is equipped with gas surface burners with
different BTU ratings. The ability to heat food quickly and in
large amounts increases as the burner size increases.
• Small burners are best used for low-flame he a tin g of
small amounts of food.
• Standa rd burners can b e used for most surf ace cooking
needs.
• The largest burner is best used for bringing large quantities of liquid rapidly up to temperature or when
preparing larger quantities of food. The large burner is
located at the right front position on the cooktop.
Regardless of size, always select cookware that is suitable
for the amount and type of food being prepared. Select a
burner and set the flame size appropriately for the pan.
Never allow flames to extend beyond the outer edge of the
pan.
Do not place flammable items such as plastic salt and
pepper shakers, spoon holders, or plastic wrappings on
the cooktop when it is in use. These items could melt or
ignite. Potholders, towels or wooden spoons could catch
fire if placed too close to the range cooktop.
Do not place aluminum foil, or ANY material that can melt
on the range cooktop. If these items melt they may
damage the cooktop.
Do not straddle cookware over two burner areas unless
the cookware is specifically designed for that purpose.

The color of the flame is the key to proper burner adjustment. A good flame is clear, blue and hardly visible in a
well-lighted room. Each cone of flame should be steady and
sharp. Adjust or clean the burner if flame is yellow-orange.
For most cooking: start on the highest setting and then
turn to a lower setting to complete the process. Use the
recommendations below as a guide for determining proper
flame size for various types of cooking (
For deep fat frying: use a thermometer and adjust the
surface knob accordingly. If the fat is too cool, the food will
absorb the fat and be greasy. If the fat is too hot, the food
will brown so quickly that the center will be under-cooked.
Do not attempt to deep fat fry too much food at once as the
food will neither brown nor cook properly.
Figure 9).
Flame size Type of cooking
High flame Start most foods; bring water to a boil;
pan broiling
Medium flame Maintain a slow boil; thicken sauces,
gravies; steaming
Low flame Keep foods cooking; poaching; stewing
These settings are based on medium-weight metal or
aluminum pans with lids. Settings may vary when using
other types of pans.
Figure 9: Recommended flame settings for cooking
Never extend the flame beyond the outer edge of the
cooking utensil. A higher flame wastes energy, and
increases your risk of being burned by the flame
(

Cooking with a griddle (some models)
Figure 10: Griddle
The griddle is a versatile accessory that is perfect for
cooking foods that require large flat surfaces such as
pancakes, French toast, grilled sandwiches, bacon, and
also for cooking different foods at the same time.
After use, let the griddle cool before washing. Hand wash
with hot soapy water. Do not soak. Dry thoroughly. Do not
put a griddle in a dishwasher.
If you would like to purchase a griddle, you can order one
from Crosley.com.
Using the griddle:
Place the griddle securely on top of the burner grates.
Preheat the griddle for 5 minutes on medium to me dium low
setting. Slow preheat ensures even heat distribution during
the cooking process. DO NOT preheat the griddle on HI
setting. Preheating on HI may warp the griddle and preve nt
even heat distribution.
Home Canning
Be sure to read and observe all the following points when
home canning with your appliance. Check with the USDA
(United Sta tes Department of Agriculture) Web site and be
sure to read all the information they have available as well
as follow their recommendations for home canning proce
dures.
• Use only a completely flat bottom canner with no ridges
that radiate from the bottom center when home
canning. Heat is spread more evenly when the bottom
surface is flat. Use a straight-edge to check canner
bottom.
• Make sure the diameter of the canner does not exceed
1 inch beyond the surface element markings or burner.
• It is recommended to use smaller diameter canners on
electric coil and ceramic glass cooktops and to center
canners on the burner grates.
• Start with hot tap water to bring water to boil more
quickly.
• Use the highest heat seating when first bringing the
water to a boil. Once boiling is achieved, reduce heat to
lowest possible setting to maintain that boil.
• Use tested recipes and follow ins tructions carefully.
Check with your local Cooperative Agricultural
Extension Service or a manufacturer of glass jars for
the latest canning information.
• It is best to can small amounts and light loads.
• Do not leave water bath or pressure canners on high
heat for an extended amount of time.

BEFORE SETTING OVEN CONTROLS
Oven Vent Location
The oven is vented as shown below. When the oven is on,
warm air is released through the vent. This venting is
necessary for proper air circulation in the oven and good
baking results. Do not block oven vent. Never close off the
openings with aluminium foil or any other material. S team or
moisture may appear near the oven vent. This is normal.
Figure 11: Oven vent
Protective Liners — Do not use aluminum foil or any
other material or liners to line the oven bottom, walls,
racks or any other part of the range. Doing so will alter the
heat distribution, produce poor baking results, and
possibly cause permanent damage to the oven interior.
Improper installation of these liners may result in risk of
electric shock or fire.
• Always use pot holders or oven mitts when using the
oven. When cooking, the oven interior, oven exterior,
oven racks, and cooktop will become very hot which
can cause burns.
Types of oven racks
at
oven rack
Figure 12: Oven rack types
• Flat oven racks may be used for most cooking needs
and may be placed in most oven rack positions.
• The offset oven rack (some models) provides additional step down positions from the standard flat rack
design. The offset design positions the base of the rack
about ½ of a rack position lower than the flat rack and
may be used in most oven rack positions. To maximize
oven cooking space, place the bottom oven rack in the
lowest rack position for baking or roasting large cuts of
meat.
Removing, replacing, and arranging flat or offset oven racks
Always arrange the oven racks when the oven is cool.
To remove - Pull the oven rack straight forward until it
reaches the stop position. Lift up front of oven rack slightly
and slide out.
To replace - Place the oven rack on the rack guides on
both sides of oven walls. Tilt the front of oven rack upward
slightly and slide the oven rack back into place. Be sure
oven racks are level before using.
• To prevent possible damage to the oven, do not
