Important instructions for using your cooktop
WARNING
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 controls each surface burner. Place a pan of food on the burner before turning it on, and turn the burner off before removing the pan.
• 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.
• Utensil Handles Should Be Turned Inward
and Not Extend Over Adjacent Surface Burners—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—Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite, or a pan that has boiled dry may melt.
• Protective Liners—Do not use aluminum foil to line surface burner pans, or oven bottom, except as suggested in this manual. Improper installation of these liners may result in risk of electric shock, or fire.
• 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.
Important instructions for using your oven
• Use care when opening oven door or lower oven drawer (if equipped)—Stand to the side of
the range when opening the door of a hot oven. Let hot air or steam escape before you remove or replace food in the oven.
• Keep Oven Vent Ducts Unobstructed. The oven vent is located below the backguard. Touching the surfaces in this area when the oven is operating may cause severe burns. Also, do not place plastic or heat-sensitive items on or near the oven vent. These items could melt or ignite.
• Placement of oven racks. Always place oven racks in desired location while oven is cool. If rack must be moved while oven is hot use extreme caution. Use potholders and grasp the rack with both hands to reposition. Do not let potholders contact the hot heating elements in the oven. Remove all utensils from the rack before moving.
• Do not use the broiler pan without insert. The broiler pan and insert allows dripping fat to drain and be kept away from the high heat of the broiler.
• Do not cover the broiler insert with aluminum
foil. Exposed fat and grease could ignite.
• Cold temperatures can damage the electronic control. When using the appliance for the first time, or when the appliance has not been used for an extended period of time, be certain the unit has been in temperatures above 32°F (0°C) for at least 3 hours before turning on the power to the appliance.
Important Safety Notice
The California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act requires the Governor of California to publish a list of substances known to the state to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm, and requires businesses to warn customers of potential exposure to such substances.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Important cleaning instructions
• Clean the range regularly to keep all parts free of grease that could catch fire. Pay
particular attention to the area underneath each surface element. Do not allow grease to accumulate.
• Kitchen cleaners and aerosols—Always
follow the manufacturer’s recommended directions for use. Be aware that excess
residue from cleaners and aerosols may ignite causing damage and injury.
Self cleaning ovens
• Clean in the self-cleaning cycle only the parts listed in this Use & Care Manual. Before self
cleaning the oven, remove the broiler pan and any utensils or foods from the oven.
• Do not use oven cleaners—No commercial oven cleaner or oven liner protective coating of any kind should be used in or around any part of the oven.
• Do not clean door gasket—The door gasket is essential for a good seal. Care should be taken not to rub, damage or move the gasket.
• The health of some birds is extremely sensitive to the fumes given off during the self-cleaning cycle of any range. Move birds to another well­ventilated room.

WARNING
• Personal injury or death from electrical shock may occur if the conversion to L.P. gas is not made by a qualified installer or electrician.
• Any additions, changes or conversions required in order for this appliance to satisfactorily meet the application needs must be made by a qualified technician.
This appliance allows for conversion to Liquefied Petroleum (L.P.) Gas.
Grounding Instructions
For personal safety, this appliance must be properly grounded. For maximum safety, the power cord must be plugged into an electrical outlet that is correctly polarized and properly grounded. If a 2­prong wall receptacle is the only available outlet, it is the personal responsibility of the consumer to have it replaced with a properly grounded 3-prong wall receptacle installed by a qualified electrician.
WARNING
• Avoid fire hazard or electrical shock. Do not use an adapter plug, an extension cord, or remove grounding prong from electrical power cord. Failure to follow this warning can cause serious injury, fire or death.
• This appliance is equipped with a 3-prong grounding plug for your protection against shock hazard and should be plugged directly into a properly grounded receptacle. Do not cut or remove the grounding prong from this plug.

Surface Cooking
Cookware
Using proper cookware
The size and type of cookware used will influence the setting needed for best cooking results. Cookware should have flat bottoms that make good contact with the entire burner grate surface. Check for flatness by rotating a ruler across the bottom of the cookware.
Cookware should always:
• Have flat bottoms.
• Have tight fitting lids.
• Be well-balanced.
• Be made of material that conducts heat well.
• Be easy to clean.
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 & pitting).
• Copper - Excellent heat conductor but discolors
easily.
• Stainless steel - Slow heat conductor with
uneven cooking results. Is durable, easy to clean and resists staining.
• Cast iron - A poor heat conductor however will
retain 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.
Before setting surface burners
Check burner cap placement before operating the surface burners
CAUTION
• To prevent flare-ups and avoid creation of
harmful by-products, do not use the cooktop without all burner caps properly installed to insure proper ignition and gas flame size.
• Do not use the surface burners without the burner caps and burner grates properly installed. Missing pieces or improper installation may lead to spills, burns, or damage to your range and cookware.
It is very important to be sure that all surface burner caps and burner grates are properly installed and in the correct locations BEFORE operating the cooktop burners.
Remember:
• Always keep surface burner caps in place whenever using a surface burner.
• When placing the burner caps, be sure that all burner caps are seated firmly and rest level on top of burner heads.
• For proper flow of gas and ignition of burners DO NOT allow spills, food, cleaning agents or any other material to enter the gas orifice port opening.
Page 9
Before setting surface burners (con’t)
On round style burners, the burner cap lip (Figure 1,) should fit snug into the center of burner head and rest level. Refer to Figures 2 and 3 for correct and incorrect burner cap placement. Once in place, you may check the fit by gently sliding the burner cap from side to side (Figure 4) to be sure it is centered and firmly seated. When the burner cap lip makes contact inside the center of the burner head you will be able to hear the burner cap click. Please note that the burner cap should NOT move off the center of the burner head when sliding from side to side.
Check and be sure that all oval style burner caps are correctly in place on oval burner heads.

How conv roast works
Convection (conv) roast combines a cook cycle with the convection fan and element to rapidly roast meats and poultry. Heated air circulates around the meat from all sides, sealing in juices and flavors. Meats cooked with this feature are crispy and brown on the outside while staying moist inside. There is no need to reduce the oven temperature when using conv roast.
Conv roast may be set with the following options:
• Cook time
• Cook time with end time
The following oven temperature settings apply for conv roast:
• Factory default temperature: 350°F/176°C
• Min. conv roast setting: 300°F / 148°C
• Max. conv roast setting: 550°F / 288°C
Benefits of conv roast:
• Superior multiple oven rack performance.
• Some foods will cook faster, saving time and energy.

For best results
• Preheating for conv roast will not be necessary
for most meats and poultry.
• Place food items on rack positions 1, 2, or 3,
keeping food in center of the oven cavity (see Figure 1).
• Since conv roast cooks faster, reduce cook
times by 25% from the recommended time of your recipe (check the food at this time). Then if needed, increase cook time until the desired doneness is obtained.
• Place food items using the recommended rack
positions for the type of food being prepared.
• Be sure to carefully follow your recipe’s
temperature and time recommendations or refer to the conv roast recommendations for additional information. See Figure 2 on the next page.
• Do not cover foods when dry roasting - covering
will prevent the meat from browning properly.
• You may also choose to use COOK TIME

Sabbath mode
(for use on the Jewish Sabbath & Holidays)
For further assistance, guidelines for proper usage and a complete list of models with the Sabbath feature, please vist the web at
http:\\www.star-k.org.
This appliance provides special settings for use when observing the Jewish Sabbath/Holidays. Sabbath mode disables all audible tones or visual display changes on the oven control. BAKE and cooktop heating are the only cooking features available while in the Sabbath mode.
You must first set the BAKE feature and temperature(s) needed for the oven and the COOK TIME option (if needed) before setting the Sabbath mode. Any settings made prior to setting the Sabbath mode will be visible in the displays. The COOK TIME option, if set prior to the Sabbath mode, will give one audible alert at the end of COOK TIME.
The Sabbath mode will override the factory preset 12-hour Energy Saving mode and the appliance will stay on until the cooking features are cancelled. If any of the cooking features are cancelled when the appliance is in the Sabbath mode, no audible or visual indicators will be available to verify the cancellation.
To set the oven for the Sabbath feature:
Example
Step Press
1. Be sure the clock is set with the correct time of day.
2. Press bake.
3. Enter desired temperature.
325
4. Press START.

Fig. 1
• Be sure the oven vent area is clear.
• Remove all items from the storage drawer.
• Be sure the oven light shield is in place. Turn off
the oven light.
• Remove any excess spills or loose debris. Spills on the oven bottom should be wiped-up and removed before starting self-clean. To clean, use hot, soapy water and a cloth. Large food spillovers can cause heavy smoke or a fire during self-clean. Spills that have a high sugar or acid content (such as milk, tomatoes, sauerkraut, fruit juices or pie filling) may leave a dull spot even after self-cleaning.
• Do not clean the oven door gasket (Figure 2). Do not use any cleaning materials on the oven door gasket. Doing so may damage the gasket. The woven material of the oven door gasket is essential for a good seal. Care should be taken not to rub, damage or remove the door gasket.
• Do not use commercial oven cleaners or protective coatings of any kind inside oven. Residue from oven cleaners may damage the porcelain during the next self-clean cycle.
Fig. 2
WARNING
• Do not touch the oven during the self-clean
cycle.
• Keep children away from oven during the
self-clean cycle.
• Failure to follow these instructions can result in
burns.
CAUTION
• The health of some birds is extremely sensitive to the fumes given off during the self-clean cycle of any range. Move birds to another well-ventilated room.
• DO NOT line the oven walls, oven racks, oven bottom or any other part of the range with aluminum foil. Doing so will stop heat distribution, produce poor baking results and may cause permanent damage to the oven interior. Aluminum foil will melt to a hot oven surface during self-clean.

Self-clean
Setting self-clean
A self-cleaning oven automatically cleans itself using much higher temperatures than those used for cooking. The self-clean feature eliminates soils completely or reduces them to a fine powdered ash that you can later easily wipe away with a damp cloth.
The self-clean function provides 3 different clean time settings for self-cleaning. Set clean for 2 hours for light, 3 hours for normal or 4 hours for heavier soils.
To start self-clean:
Example
Step Press
1. The oven should be empty and all oven racks removed. Remove all items from the cooktop. Be sure the oven door is completely closed.
2. Press self clean once for a 3-hour clean time (Figure 1); twice for a 4­hour clean time (Figure 2) or 3 times for a 2-hour clean time (Figure 3).
Once active, the door lock motor will begin locking the oven door. "door Loc" (Figure 4) will appear in the display. DO NOT try to open the oven door when the "door Loc" message is on (allow about 15 seconds for the oven door to completely lock). DO NOT force the oven door open. This could damage the door locking system. Once the oven door is locked the "door Loc" message will turn off and "CLn" (Figure 5) will remain in the display for the entire self-clean cycle.
Fig. 4 Fig. 5
When the self clean cycle has finished:
1. The time of day and "Hot" will show in the
display (Figure 6).
2. Once the oven has cooled (about 1 hour) and
"Hot" is no longer displayed, the "door OPn" message will appear (Figure 7). When this message turns OFF the door has finished unlocking.
3. Press START.
Fig. 1
Fig. 3
Fig. 2

Setting self-clean (cont’d)
To cancel self-clean:
1. Press thecancel key.
2. If the self-clean cycle has heated the oven to a
high temperature, "Hot" (Figure 1) will show in the display. Allow enough time for the oven to cool and for the "door OPn" message to display (Figure 2). When this message turns OFF the oven door may be opened.
Fig. 1
Starting self-clean after cancelling:
If a self-clean cycle was cancelled using the cancel key before the oven was finished cleaning,
you may wish to set for another self-clean cycle.
If self-clean was cancelled shortly after being started, and the oven interior did not reach high self-clean temperatures, the next clean cycle may be set as soon as the oven door unlocks from the cancelled clean cycle.
Fig. 2
Setting delayed self-clean
You may wish to set your appliance to perform a self-clean cycle later (up to 12 hours later). The end time key will determine when the cleaning will stop.
You will need to set the end time far enough to allow for the type of clean cycle you choose, whether for 2, 3, or 4 hours. Remember to add 30 to 40 additional minutes of cooling time before using the oven for cooking.
Setting for a heavy (4 hour) self-clean cycle to end at 8:00 o’clock:
Example
Step Press
1. Be sure the clock is set with the
correct time of day. Remove all oven racks. Remove all items from the cooktop. Be sure the oven door is completely closed.
2. Press end time.
3. Enter 8 0 0 using the numeric
keypad.
If the oven became hot enough from the cancelled self-clean cycle, you may be required to wait up to 4 hours before the control will allow another self­clean cycle to start.
Restarting a self-clean cycle after a power outage:
If the self-clean cycle was interrupted by a power failure, your oven may not be thoroughly cleaned. Another self-clean cycle may be needed. Once power is restored, the oven has cooled and the oven door has unlocked, set to clean for another cycle.
Setting repeated self-clean cycles
If attempting to set repeating self-clean cycles, the control may display the messages "CLEAn"” then "dELAy" followed by the length of time before the next self-clean may be set.
For example, if the message displayed reads "4:00", and the time is 12:00 o’clock, the control will not allow self-clean to be set again until after 4:00 o’clock.
4. Press START.
5. Press self clean.
6. Press self clean again.
7. Press START.
Press CANCEL at any time to stop self-clean.
CAUTION
To avoid possible burns use caution when opening the oven door after the self-clean cycle is finished. The oven may still be VERY HOT. Stand to the side of the oven when opening the door to allow hot air or steam to escape.

Type Cleaning Recommendation
For general cleaning, use hot, soapy water and a cloth. For more difficult soils and built-up grease, apply a liquid detergent directly onto soil. Leave on soil for 30-60 minutes. Rinse with a damp cloth and dry. Do not use abrasive cleaners these surfaces; they can scratch. To remove control knobs, turn to OFF position; grasp firmly and pull straight off the shaft. To replace knobs after cleaning, line up the flat sides of both knob and shaft; then push knob into place.
Before cleaning the control panel, turn all controls off, activate control lock (some models) and if needed remove knobs from panel (some models). Do not use abrasive cleaners on controls or trim; they can scratch. Clean using hot, soapy water and a dishcloth. Be sure to squeeze excess water from dishcloth before wiping control panel; especially when wiping around the controls area. Excess water in or around the controls may cause damage to the appliance. When rinsing, use clean water and a dishcloth and be sure to squeeze excess water from dishcloth before wiping the control panel.
Clean stainless with warm soapy water using a clean sponge or cloth. Rinse with clean water and dry with soft clean cloth. Do not use harsh scrubbing cleaners. Only use kitchen cleaners especially made for cleaning stainless steel. Always be sure to rinse cleaners from the surface as bluish stains may occur during heating that cannot be removed.
Gentle scrubbing with a soapy no-scratch cleaning pad will remove most spots. Rinse with a 1:1 solution of clear water and ammonia. If necessary, cover difficult spots with an ammonia-soaked paper towel for 30 to 40 mins. Rinse with clean water and a damp cloth, and then scrub with a soap-filled no-scratch cleaning pad. Rinse and wipe dry with a clean cloth. Do not allow food spills with high sugar or acid content (milk, tomatoes, sauerkraut, fruit juices or pie filling) to remain on surfaces; they may cause a dull spot even after cleaning.
Remove excessive spillovers from oven cavity bottom before starting self-clean. Clean any soils from oven frame and door liner outside the oven door gasket. For important preparation information be sure to read all the instructions in the self-cleaning section.
Do not clean oven racks in oven during the self-clean cycle. Remove and clean using a mild, abrasive cleaner following manufacturer's instructions. Thoroughly rinse and dry.
Example
• Oven door
• Burner heads, caps,
grates & cooktop
Use soap & water to thoroughly clean the top, sides and front of the oven door. Rinse well. You may use a glass cleaner on the outside glass of the oven door. Do not immerse the door in water. Do not spray or allow water or glass cleaner to enter the door vents. To avoid scratches, do not use oven cleaners, cleaning powders or any harsh abrasive cleaning materials on the outside of the oven door. Do not clean the oven door gasket. On self-cleaning models the oven door gasket is made of a woven material which is essential for a good seal. Care should be taken not to rub, damage or remove this gasket.
See “Cleaning cooktop and parts” in the Care and Cleaning section.
Page 41
Cleaning cooktop and parts
CAUTION
• Do not remove any parts from the cooktop until
they have completely cooled and are safe to handle. DO NOT attempt to clean the cooktop whenever the cooktop or burner heads are still hot.
• To avoid possible burns DO NOT attempt to
operate the surface burners without the burner caps.
• Any additions, changes or conversions required in order for this appliance to satisfactorily meet the application needs must be made by an authorized qualified Agency.
Care and Cleaning
Burner grates
The burner grates are dishwasher safe and may be cleaned in the dishwasher. Remove any excessive soils before placing in the dishwasher.
Burner caps
To remove the burner caps for cleaning, lift the burner cap off the burner head. Clean heavy soils with an absorbent cloth. Rinse with a clean, damp cloth and thoroughly dry the bottom and inside of the cap. Do not use harsh abrasive cleaners; they can scratch the porcelain on the cap. Do not clean burner caps in dishwasher. Refer to “Before setting surface burners” in the “Surface Cooking” Section.
Burner heads
41
IMPORTANT
• Do not use spray oven cleaners on the cooktop.
• Before placing burner grates onto cooktop, turn grates over to identify rear of grate and place all the grates to the rear of the cooktop.
• For proper gas flow and ignition of the burners,
DO NOT allow spills, food, cleaning agents or any other material to enter the gas orifice opening.
• The cooktop is not removable. Do not attempt to remove or lift the cooktop.
• When placing the burner caps on the cooktop, be sure the burner caps are seated firmly on top of burner heads. Refer to “Before setting surface burners” in the “Surface Cooking” Section.
The cooktop is designed to make cleaning easier. The gas burners are sealed so cleanup is easy when spillovers are cleaned immediately.
Lift the burner cap from the burner head. The surface burner heads are secured to the cooktop and must be cleaned in place.
For proper gas flow it may be necessary to clean the burner heads and slots. To clean, first use a clean DAMP cloth to soak up any spills. Remove any food from between the burner slots using a small nonabrasive brush like a toothbrush. Afterwards wipe using a damp cloth. For stubborn soils located in the slots, use a small-gauge wire or needle to clean.
Should you experience ignition problems it may be that an ignition port hole is partially blocked with soil. (See Figure 1) . With the burner head in place, use a small wire gauge needle or the end of a paper clip to clear the ignition port or ports.

Care and Cleaning
Aluminum foil and oven liners
Do not use oven bottom liners or use aluminum foil to cover the oven racks.
CAUTION
Protective liners—Do not use aluminum foil to
line the oven bottom, except as suggested in the manual. Improper installation of these liners may result in a risk of electrical shock, or fire.
Using a liner in the oven restricts the heat and air flow needed to obtain the best possible cooking results for any oven.
During self-clean the oven temperature can become hot enough to melt aluminum cooking utensils or aluminum foil if left in the oven. This could result in permanent damage to the oven interior and porcelain finish.
Changing the oven light
CAUTION
Be sure the range is unplugged and all parts are COOL before replacing oven light. Wear a leather glove for protection against possible broken glass or burns.
The oven lights are located at the rear of the oven cavity and are covered with a glass shield held by a wire holder (Figure 1). The glass shield protects the light bulb and must be in place whenever the oven is in use.
