IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
• Stepping, leaning or sitting on the door or
drawers of a range can result in serious injuries and also cause damage to the appliance. DO NOT
allow children to climb or play around the range. The weight of a child on an open oven door may cause the range to tip, resulting in serious burns or other injury.
• NEVER use this appliance as a space heater to heat or warm the room. Doing so may result in carbon monoxide poisoning.
• NEVER cover any slots, holes or passages in the oven bottom or cover an entire rack with materials such as aluminum foil. Doing so blocks
air ow through the oven and may cause carbon
monoxide poisoning. Aluminum foil linings may
trap heat, causing a re hazard.
• Storage in or on appliance — to avoid a re hazard, ammable materials should not be
stored in an oven, near surface units or in the storage drawer, warmer drawer or lower oven.
This includes paper, plastic and cloth items, such as cookbooks, plasticware and towels, as well as
ammable liquids. Do not store explosives, such as
aerosol cans, on or near the range.
• DO NOT LEAVE CHILDREN ALONE — to avoid
injuries or burns children should not be left alone or unattended in the area where the range is in use. They should never be allowed to
sit or stand on any part of the range including the storage drawer, lower broiler drawer, lower oven or warmer drawer.
• Do not store items of interest to children in the
cabinets above a range or on the backguard of the range. Children climbing on the range to reach
items could be seriously injured.
• Do not touch surface burners, areas near these
burners, oven burners or interior surfaces of the oven. Both surface and oven burners may be hot
even though ames are not visible. Areas near surface
burners may become hot enough to cause burns. During and after use, do not touch, or let clothing or
other ammable materials touch these areas until they have had sufcient time to cool. Among these areas
are the cooktop, surfaces facing the cooktop, the oven vent openings and surfaces near these openings, oven door and window.
• Wear proper apparel—loose-tting or hanging
garments should never be worn while using the appliance. Do not let clothing or other ammable
materials contact hot surfaces.
• Do not use water or our on grease res — our may be explosive. Smother the re with a pan
lid, or use baking soda, a dry chemical or foam­type extinguisher.
• When heating fat or grease, watch it closely. Fat
or grease may catch re if allowed to become too hot.
• Use dry potholders - moist or damp potholders
on hot surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do not let potholders touch hot heating elements. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth instead of a potholder.
• Do not heat unopened food containers - buildup
of pressure may cause container to burst and result in injury.
Be sure to always have an appropriate foam-type re
extinguisher available, visible and easily accessible located near the appliance.
• Never modify or alter the construction of a range
by removing the leveling legs, panels, wire covers, anti-tip bracket/screws, or any other part of the range.
• Remove the oven door from any unused range if
it is to be stored or discarded.
• User servicing — Do not repair or replace any part of the appliance unless specically recommended
in the manuals. All other servicing should be done
only by a qualied technician. This may reduce the risk
of personal injury and damage to the range.
IMPORTANT
For electric ignition models only: Do not attempt to operate the range during a power failure. If
the power fails, always turn off the range. If the range is not turned off and the power resumes, the range will begin to operate again. Once the power resumes, reset the clock and oven function.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING YOUR OVEN
• Use care when opening oven door , warmer
drawer or lower oven door—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 heat­sensitive 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 its insert. The broiler pan and its insert allow 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.
Protective liners—Do not use aluminum foil to line the oven bottom. Only use aluminum foil as recommended in this manual. Improper installation of these liners may
result in risk of electric shock, or re.
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 INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING YOUR COOKTOP
Use Proper Flame Size—Adjust ame size so it does
not extend beyond the edge of the utensil. The use of undersized utensils will expose a portion of the burner
ame to direct contact and may result in ignition of clothing. Proper relationship of utensil to ame will also improve efciency.
• 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 ame 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 ammable 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.
• 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 aming foods under a ventilating hood,
turn the fan on.
• Air curtain or other overhead range hoods, which
operate by blowing a downward air ow on to a range,
shall not be used in conjunction with gas ranges other than when the hood and range have been designed, tested and listed by an independent test laboratory for use in combination with each other.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
SELF-CLEANING OVENS
Do not touch the oven during the self-clean cycle.
Keep children away from oven during self-clean cycle.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in burns.
• 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 well-ventilated room.
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR CLEANING
YOUR RANGE
Clean the range regularly to keep all parts free of
grease that could catch re. Pay particular attention
to the area around 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.
• Clean ventilating hoods frequently—Grease

Oven racks
Always use oven mitts to protect hands from possible burns when using the oven or cooktop. The oven, oven racks and cooktop will become very hot.
IMPORTANT
Do not remove or attempt to arrange oven racks with cookware still on the racks. To avoid damaging cookware or spilling food items, always remove any cookware rst.
Oven rack stop
Most oven racks slide on rack guides provided along the oven cavity sides. The rack guides are curved near the front of each guide. The curve will catch and hold the oven rack stable into a stop position when an oven rack is extended straight out from the oven.
For better access to food items in the oven, slowly pull the oven rack straight out to the oven rack stop position (Fig. 3) before checking on food items or removing food dishes from the oven.

For best baking results allow 2 to 4 inches (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. For even heating, hot air must be able to circulate freely around the pans and cookware (See Fig. 1).
Baking layer cakes with 1 or 2 oven racks
For best results when baking cakes using 2 oven racks, place cookware on rack in positions 3 & 5. For best results when using a single or an offset oven rack, place cookware on rack in position 2, 3 or 4.
Effortless™ Oven Rack system (some models)
CAUTION
Some models are equipped with a special oven rack system that automatically partially extends the oven rack from the interior oven glides to assist in easier access to your food items. This feature works whenever the oven door is opened or closed.
To assemble the Effortless™ Oven Rack system:
1. Locate all required parts. You will need the supplied
oven rack (Effortless™ Oven Rack is a at rack with
a special dark coating on the left and right rack sides) and the 2 supplied chrome connector arms.
2. Open the oven door. Be sure the oven is completely
cool before proceeding.
3. Place the oven rack in positions 2, 3 or 4 only. Be
sure the rack connector brackets are at the rear of the range and pointing towards oven bottom (See Fig. 2).
4. Assemble one connector arm at a time. With the
oven door open and the oven rack in place, install one end of the connector arm to the hole in the door connector bracket (Fig. 1) and the other end in the hole in the rack connector bracket (Fig. 2 and as in Fig. 3). The oven rack may need to be adjusted in or out in the rack position to match the length of the connector arm.
5. While holding the connector arm in place, twist the
connector arm so the ends of the connector arm point upwards (See Figs. 4 & 5). The connector arm should now be locked into position.
6. Repeat steps 4 and 5 for the other connector arm.
7. Once both connector arms are properly in place, be
sure to test the oven rack operation by gently closing the oven door. The oven rack should move in and out of the oven freely when the door is opened or closed.
BEFORE SETTING OVEN CONTROLS
IMPORTANT
• Only the Effortless™ Oven Rack system should
be used in oven rack position 2. Placing ANY other rack in oven rack position 2 will prevent the oven door from fully closing and may damage the oven door, oven cavity or the door connector brackets.
If the rack system is not assembled with the connector arms the Effortless™ Oven rack may be used in oven rack positions 2 thru 6. Do not attempt to use the Effortless™ Oven rack in rack position 1.

BEFORE SETTING SURFACE CONTROLS
Before operating the cooktop, check for proper burner cap placement
Visually check for proper burner cap placement before operating any of the surface burners (See Fig.1).
To prevent are-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
ame size.
To avoid possible burns DO NOT touch burner caps or surface burner grates after using any of the surface burners. The surface burner grates, caps, and areas around them may still be very hot. Provide sufcient time for these areas and the parts to completely cool before handling.
If any of the surface burner caps appears to be resting unevenly, not centered or appears unlevel on the burner head (Fig. 2), be sure to correct the burner cap position on the burner head before starting the surface burner.
Using the griddle (some models)
Before rst use:
Wash griddle in hot soapy water.
Rinse and dry completely.
Using the griddle:
Remove the center burner grate (some models) and carefully replace with the griddle.
For best results, preheat the griddle for 5 minutes on medium or a medium low setting. Slow preheating provides more even heat distribution during the cooking process. Do not preheat the griddle on Hi setting. Preheating using a Hi burner setting may warp the griddle and prevent even heat distribution.
After each use:
To prevent possible rusting, store in a dry place and keep uncovered.
After each use, clean with a stiff brush and hot water only, then rinse.
Dry immediately.
Do not clean griddle in the dishwasher.

BEFORE SETTING SURFACE CONTROLS
Cookware material types
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 - 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.
Use quality cookware in good condition
For the best possible cooking results when using the cooktop, always use quality cookware in good condition. Pans should
have at bottoms that sit
level on the burner grate. Before using cookware,
check for atness by
rotating a ruler across the bottom of the cookware (Fig. 1).
Fig. 1
Set proper burner ame size
The color of the ame is the key to proper burner adjustment. A good ame is clear, blue and hardly visible in a well-lighted room. Each cone of ame should be steady and sharp. Adjust or clean burner if ame 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
ame size for various types of cooking (Fig. 2)
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 undercooked. Do not attempt to deep fat fry too much food at once as the food will neither brown or cook properly.
Flame size* Type of cooking
High ame Start most foods; bring water to a
boil; pan broiling.
Medium ame Maintain a slow boil; thicken sauces,
gravies; steaming.
Low ame Keep foods cooking; poach; stewing.
*These settings are based for medium-weight metal or aluminum pans with lids. Settings may vary when using other types of pans.
Fig. 2
Do not place ammable items such as plastic wrappings, spoon holders or plastic salt and pepper shakers on the cooktop when it is in use. These items could melt or ignite. Potholders, towels or wooden
spoons could catch re if placed too close to the range
cooktop.
IMPORTANT
Do not place aluminum foil, or ANY material that can melt on the range cooktop. If these items melt
they may damage the cooktop.
NOTE
The size and type of utensil used, the amount and type
of food being cooked will inuence the settings needed
to obtain the best cooking results.
11
SETTING SURFACE CONTROLS
Setting surface controls
The ability to heat food quicker and in larger volumes increases as the burner size increases. Your gas appliance may be equipped with many different sized surface burners.
It is important to select cookware that is suitable for the amount and type of food being prepared. Select a burner
and ame size appropriate for the cookware size.
The standard size burner or burners may be used for most surface cooking needs. Use the smaller simmer burner (some models) when simmering delicate sauces, etc.
The larger quick boil (some models) burner or burners are best when used to bring large quantities of liquid to temperature or when heating larger quantities of food.
Setting a surface burner:
1. Place cooking utensil on center of surface burner grate. Be sure the cooking utensil rests stable on the burner grate.
2. Push the desired surface control knob in and turn counterclockwise out of the OFF position (Fig. 1).
3. Release the surface control knob and rotate to the lite position. Visually check that the burner has a steady
gas ame.
4. Once the surface burner has a ame, push the surface
control knob in and turn counterclockwise to the
desired ame size setting. Use the knob markings and adjust the ame as needed.
Fig. 1
NOTES
When setting a surface control knob to the lite position, all the electronic surface ignitors will spark at the same time. However, only the surface burner you are setting will ignite.
In the event of an electrical power outage, the surface burners may be lit manually. To light a surface burner, hold a lit match to the burner head, then slowly turn the surface control knob to lite. Once the burner ignites, push in and turn knob out of lite then to
the desired ame setting. Use caution when lighting
surface burners manually.
Do not place ammable items such as plastic wrappings, spoon holders or plastic salt and pepper shakers on the cooktop when it is in use. These items could melt or ignite. Potholders, towels or wooden
spoons could catch re if placed too close to the range
cooktop.
IMPORTANT
• DO NOT cook with a surface control knob left in the
lite position. The electronic ignitor will continue to spark. Turn control knob out of lite position and adjust
the ame size.
• Do not place aluminum foil, or ANY material that
can melt on the range cooktop. If items melt the they may permanently damage the appearance of the cooktop.

Home Canning
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) website and be sure to read all the information they have available as well as follow their recommendations for canning procedures.
Use only quality at bottom canners when home
canning. Use a straight-edge to check canner bottom.
Start with hot tap water to bring water to boil more quickly.
Use the highest heat seating when rst bringing the
water to a boil. Once boiling is achieved, reduce heat to lowest possible setting to maintain that boil.
When using two canners at the same time, stagger the
canners on the burners. This will allow for better air ow
to the burners. Do not block air to the burners.
NEVER place or straddle a cooking utensil over two different surface cooking areas at the same time. This may cause uneven heating results.
