Important Safety Instructions
Never use your appliance as a space heater to heat or warm the room. Doing so may result in carbon monoxide poisoning and overheating of the appli­ance.
When heating fat or grease, watch it closely. Grease may catch fire if it becomes too hot.
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.
Do not use water or flour on grease fires. Smother fire or flame or use dry chemical or foam-type extin­guisher. Cover the fire with a pan lid or use baking soda.
Use dry potholders. Moist or damp potholders on hot surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do not let potholders touch hot cooking areas. Do not use towels or other bulky cloths.
Do not heat unopened food containers - Build-up of pressure may cause container to burst and result in injury.
Wear proper apparel - Loose-fitting or hanging garments should never be worn while using the appli­ance. Do not let clothing or other flammable materials contact hot surfaces.
Do not touch surface burners or elements, areas near these burners or elements, interior surfaces of the oven, or the warmer drawer (if equipped). Surface burners and elements may be hot even though they appear cool. Areas near surface burners and elements may become hot enough to cause burns. During and after use, do not touch, or let clothing or other flammable materials touch these areas until they are cool. These areas may include the cooktop, surfaces facing the cooktop, oven vent areas, oven door, and oven window.
Do not attempt to operate the appliance during a power failure. If the power fails, always turn off the appliance. If the appliance is not turned off and the power resumes, electric surface elements may resume operation when power is restored. Once the power resumes, reset the clock and the oven function.
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.
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.
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.
Keep oven vent ducts unobstructed. Touching surfaces in this area when the oven is on may cause severe burns. Do not place plastic or heat-sensitive items on or near the oven vent. These items can 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, do not let potholder contact hot burner or element in oven. Use potholders and grasp the rack with both hands to reposition. Remove all cookware and utensils before moving the rack.
Do not use a broiler pan without its insert. Broiler pans and inserts allow dripping fat to drain away from the high heat of the broiler. Do not cover the broiler insert with aluminum foil; exposed fat and grease could ignite.
Do not cook food on the oven bottom. Always cook in proper cookware and always use the oven racks.
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR CLEANING YOUR APPLIANCE
Before manually cleaning any part of the appliance, be sure all controls are turned off and the appliance is cool. Cleaning a hot appliance can cause burns.

BEFORE SETTING SURFACE CONTROLS

Using Proper Cookware
Surface burners may appear to have cooled after they have been turned off. The surface burner may still be hot and burns may occur if the surface burner is touched before it has cooled sufficiently.
For best cooking results, cookware should have flat bottoms that rest level on the surface burner grate. Before using cookware, check for flatness by rotating a ruler across the bottom of the cookware (Figure 1). Specialty pans such as lobster pots, griddles, and pressure cookers may be used but must conform to these recommended cookware requirements.
Figure 1: Testing Cookware
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 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.
Using a Wok (not supplied)
Do not use a wok if it is equipped with a metal ring that extends beyond the burner unit. Because this ring traps heat, the surface unit and cooktop surface could be damaged.
Figure 2: Cookware recommendations
IMPORTANT!
The size and type of utensil used, and the amount and type of food being cooked will influence the burner flame setting needed for best cooking results.
Always use a utensil for its intended purpose. Follow manufac­turer’s instructions. Some utensils were not made to be used in the oven or on the cooktop.
Woks with flat bottoms suitable for use on your cooktop are available in most cookware or hardware stores. Round bottomed woks (with a support ring that does not extend beyond the burner unit) may also be used. The metal ring was designed to support the wok safely when it is filled with large amounts of liquids (soup making) or fat (frying).
Wire trivets: Do not use wire trivets. Cookware bottoms must be in direct contact with the grates.

BURNER CAP PLACEMENT
Check burner cap placement before operating the surface burners.
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. Turn the burner on to determine if it will light. If the burner does not light, contact a Service Center. Do not service the sealed burner yourself.
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.
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 sharply defined. Adjust or clean burner if flame is yellow-orange. To clean burner, see “Cleaning Surface Burner Heads” on page
page 51.
For all Burners:
Place a burn er cap on each burner head (Figure 4),
matching the cap size to the head size. The cap for each burner has an inner locating ring which centers the cap correctly on the burner head. Be sure that all the burner caps and burner heads are correctly placed BEFORE using your appliance.
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 pro per 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.
Burner heads are fixed. Do not try to remove them.
On round style burners, the burner cap lip (Figure 5) should fit snug into the center of burner head and rest level.

INSTALLING BURNER GRATES
Surface burners may appear to have cooled after they have been turned off. The surface burner may still be hot and burns may occur if the surface burner is touched before it has cooled sufficiently.
Figure 10: Burner grates placement
Make sure the burner grates are properly placed on the cooktop before using the surface burners. The grates are designed to rest inside the recess on the cooktop.
To install burner grates, place grate s flat-side down an d align into the cooktop recess. Grates should rest flush against each other and against the sides of the recess (Figure 10).
Figure 9: 18 000 BTU burner cap and head
When the burner ring is properly seated, it will click into place. When the burner cap is properly set in place, it should not move out of the recessed area of the burner head.

SETTING SURFACE CONTROLS

Types of Cooktop Surface Burners
The cooktop comes with a variety of burners to accommodate different sizes of cookware. The ability to heat food quicker and in larger volumes increases as the burner size increases. It is important to select cookware that is suitable for the amount and type of food being prepared
SETTING PROPER BURNER FLAME SIZE
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.
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 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 in Table 1 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 or cook properly
Figure 11 : Surface burner types
Cooktop Surface Burners, by Size and Type
The surface burners are located on the cooktop as follows (Figure 11):
a 5 000 BTU (natural gas) burner located at the right rear position;
a 18 000 BTU (natural gas) dual-flame burner located at the right front position;
a 9 500 BTU (natural gas) burn er located at the left front position;
a 16 000 BTU (natural gas) burner located at the left rear position;
a 9 500 BTU (natural gas) burn er located at the center position.

IMPORTANT!
Specialty pans such as lobster pots, griddles and pressure cookers may be used but must conform to the above recom­mended cookware requirements.
Setting Surface Controls 13
SETTING SURFACE CONTROLS
Your cooktop may be equipped with any combination of the following burners:
Simmer Burner: be st used for simmering delicate sauces, etc.
Standard Burner: used for most all surface cooking needs.
Large Burner: be st used when bringing large quantities of
liquid to temperature and when preparing larger quantities of food.
Your cooktop is also equipped with 270° rotation flame control valves. These valves provide enhanced control of the burner flame. Each burner lights automatically from an electric ignitor when its control knob is turned to the LITE position
Regardless of size, always select a utensil that is suitable for the amount and type of food being prepared. Select a burner and flame size appropriate to the pan. Never allow flames to extend beyond the outer edge of the pan.
To operate the surface burner:
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 permanently damage the cooktop surface.
When operating the oven, it is possible for residual heat from the oven to build-up and over time to eventually transfer to the surface control knobs located directly above the oven door.
1. Place cooking utensil on burner.
2. Push in and turn the Surface Control knob to
(LITE). For dual flame burner, make sure to keep the knob setting between the two icons until the outer ring burner is lit. Note: All elec­tronic ignitors will click at the same time. How­ever, only the burner you are turning on will ignite.
3. Visually check that the burner has lit.
4. Turn the control knob to the desired flame
size. The control knobs do not have to be set at a particular mark. Use the guides and adjust the flame as needed.
Figure 13: Regular burner control knob
IMPORTANT!
Do not cook with the su rface control knob left in the LITE
position. The electronic ignitor will continue to spark if the control knob setting remains in the LITE position.
When setting any surface control knob to the LITE position, all electronic surface ignitors will spark at the same time. However, only the surface burner you are setting will ignite.
Never place or straddle a cooking utensil over two different surface cooking areas at the same time unless the utensil or cookware was designed for that purpose, such as a griddle. This can cause uneven heating results.
In the event of an electrical power outage, the surface burners can be lit manually. To light a surface burner, hold a lit long match to the burner head, then slowly turn the surface control knob to LITE. After burner lights, turn knob to desired setting. Use caution when lighting surface burners manually.
Figure 14: Dual burner control knob
14 Setting Surface Controls
Using the Griddle (Some Models)
The griddle is intended for direct food cooking and can be used on both sides. Do not use pans or other cookware on the griddle. Doing so could damage the finish. Center the griddle over the simmer oval burner.
Surface burners may appear to have cooled after they have been turned off. The surface burner may still be hot and burns may occur if the surface burner is touched before it has cooled sufficiently.
Never place or straddle a cooking utensil over two different surface cooking areas at the same time unless the cooktop is designed for such a purpose.
Always place the griddle on the grate before lighting the burner. Be sure the griddle is positioned correctly and stable before use to prevent hot spills and possible burns.
Always use potholders to remove the griddle from th e grate. Allow the griddle to cool before removing. Do not set hot griddle on surfaces that cannot withstand high heat, such as a counter top
Be sure the griddle is positioned correctly and stable before use to prevent hot spills and possible burns.
HOME CANNING
Canning can generate large amounts of steam. Use extreme caution to prevent burns. Always raise the lid to vent steam away from you. Safe canning requires that harmful micro-organisms are destroyed and the jars are sealed completely. When canning in a water bath canner, a gentle but steady boil must be main­tained continuously for the required time.
Be sure to read and observe all the following points when home canning with your appliance. Check with the USDA (United States 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 procedures.
Use only quality flat bottom canners when home canning.
Use a straight-edge to check canner bottom.
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.
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 recipe s and follow instructions 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.
Alternate surface units between each batch to allow the
units and surrounding surfaces to cool down. Try to avoid canning on the same burner unit all day.

Before Setting Oven Controls 15

BEFORE SETTING OVEN CONTROLS

Oven Vents
The oven is vented above each door. When the oven is on, warm air passes through this vent. This venting is necessary for proper air circulation in the oven and good baking results. Do not block oven vent. Steam or moisture may appear near the oven vent. This is normal.
Figure 16: Oven vent location
Some models are equipped with a cooling fan that runs during the cooking process to cool internal electronic components. It is normal for this fan to continue to run for an extended period of time, even when the oven is off.
Types of Oven Racks
Flat Oven Rack
Flat oven racks (or the flat handle oven rack) may be used for most cooking needs and may be placed in most oven rack posi­tions.
Figure 17: Flat oven rack
IMPORTANT!
The two, flat handle oven racks are lubricated porcelain oven racks, which can remain in the oven during the self-clean cycle. Do not clean this vegetable oil lubrication off the racks. It is important that the sides of the oven racks always have a light coating of vegetable oil. To maintain optimal rack performance, re-apply a thin layer of vegetable oil to the sides of the rack after every self-clean cycle or when the rack becomes difficult to slide.
Luxury-Glide™ Oven Rack
The fully extendable Luxury-Glide™ makes food preparation easier. This oven rack has glide tracks that allow the rack to be pulled away from the oven without rubbing the sides of the oven wall..
Do not line the oven walls, racks, bottom, or any other part of the oven with aluminum foil. Doing so will alter heat distribution, produce poor baking results, and may cause permanent damage to the oven interior. During self clean temperatures, the oven will be hot enough to melt foil.
Always use potholders or oven mitts when removing food or adjusting the oven racks. Wait until the oven in completely cooled if possible. Oven racks may be very hot and may cause burns.
Arranging, Removing, and Replacing Flat or Offset Oven Racks
To Arrange: Always arrange the oven racks when the oven

IMPORTANT!
The Glide Rack is porcelain enameled and may be left in the oven to be cleaned during the self-clean cycle. After the cycle, or anytime the gliding is rough, the Glide Rack extension tracks should be treated with graphite lubrication.
Air Circulation in the Oven
For best air circulation and baking results allow 2-4" (5-10 cm) around the cookware for proper air circulation and be sure pans and cookware do not touch each other, the oven door, sides or back of the oven cavity. The hot air must circulate around the pans and cookware in the oven for even heat to reach around the food.
