IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING
CAUTION
YOUR GAS COOKTOP
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING
YOUR OVEN
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.
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.
• 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 heatsensitive 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.
Glazed cooking utensils — Only certain types o f glass,
glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed
utensils are suitable for cook top service without

BEFORE SETTING SURFACE CONTROLS
Installing Burner Grates
Do not use surface burners without burner caps and grates
properly installed. Missing pieces or improper installation
may lead to spills, burns, or damage to your range and
cookware.
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 grates flat-side down and
align into the cooktop recess. Grates should rest flush
against each other and against the sides of the recess (
Figure 2).

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 and 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, it will ret ain
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 Proper Cookware
Important: For best cooking results, cookware should have
flat bottoms that rest level on the burner grate. Before using
cookware, check for flatness by rotating a ruler across the
bottom of the cookware (Figure 3).

Your gas appliance may be equipped with different sized
surface burners. 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.
• The smaller simmer burner (5k) is best suited for
simmering delicate sauces, etc.
• Use middle oval burner (10k), left rear burner (9.5k), or
left front burner (15k) for most cooking needs.
• The larger power burner at the front right (18k) is
recommended for bringing large quantities of liquid to
temperature and when preparing larger quantities of
food.
• Do not cook with the surface 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. This
can cause uneven heating results.
• In the event of an electrical power outage, the surface
burners can be lit manually . Use caution when lighting
surface burners manually. To light a surface burner,
hold a lit match to the burner head, then slowly turn
the surface control knob to LITE. After burner lights
push in and turn knob to desired setting.
SETTING SURFACE BURNERS
SETTING SURFACE BURNERS
• 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.
To set surface burners:
1. Place cooking utensil on center of surface burner grate.
Be sure the cooking utensil sits stable on the burner
grate.
2. Push the desired surface control knob in and turn counterclockwise out of the OFF position.
3. Release the surface control knob and rotate to the LITE position. Visually check that the burner is lit.
4. Once the burner has a flame, push the control knob in and turn counterclockwise to the desired flame size. Use the control knob markings and adjust the flame as needed.
• When operating the oven, it is possible for residual
heat from the oven to build-up and over time to even
tually transfer to the surface control knobs located
directly above the oven door.
• Never extend the flame beyond the outer edge of the
utensil. A higher flame simply wastes heat and
energy, and increases the risk of being burne d b y the
gas flame.

NOTE
Setting proper surface burner flame size
For most cooking: Start on the highest control setting and
then turn to a lower one to complete the process. Use the
recommendations below as a guide for determining proper
flame size for various types of cooking. The size and type of
utensil used and the amount of food being cooked will
influence the setting needed.

Home Canning
Be sure to read and observe all the following points when
home canning with your appliance.
Check with the United States Department of Agriculture
(USDA) website 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.
• When home canning, use only a completely flat bottom
canner with no ridges that radiate from the bottom
center.
• Be sure the diameter of the canner does not exceed 1
inch beyond the grate.
• Start with hot tap water to bring water to boil more
quickly.
• Use the highest heat setting when first bringing the
water to a boil.
• Once boiling is achieved, reduce heat to lowest
possible setting to maintain that boil.
IMPORTANT! Never place or straddle a cooking utensil
over two different surface cooking areas heating at the
same time. This can cause uneven heating results.
Figure 6: Gas flame adjustment
Settings based on using medium weight metal or
aluminum pans. Settings may vary using other types of
pans.
The color of the flame is key to proper burner adjustment.
A good flame is clear, blue, and hardly visible in a well lit
room.
Each cone of the flame should be steady and sharp.
Clean burner if flame is yellow-orange.

BEFORE SETTING OVEN CONTROLS
oven vent
CAUTION
BEFORE SETTING OVEN CONTROLS
Oven Vent Location
The oven vent is located under the controls. When the oven
is in use, hot air passes through this vent for proper air
circulation and provides good baking results in the upper
oven. Steam or moisture may appear near the oven vent.
This is normal. Do not block this vent.
Cooling Fan: The fan may continue to run for a while even
after the oven has been turned off; this is normal.
Figure 7: Oven vent location
Installing Ladder Racks
Figure 8: Ladder rack supports
1. Place the ladder racks hook side up into the support
brackets located on the sides of the oven (
2. Place oven racks into desired positions.
Note: To aid installation and movement of racks, apply a
thin layer of cooking oil to the sides of the oven racks that
contact the ladder supports.
Protective liners — Do not line the oven walls, racks,
bottom or any other parts of the range 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. Use aluminum foil only as recom
mended in this manual. Improper installation or use of these
liners may result in risk of electric shock or fire.
Figure 8).
-
Oven Racks
• Always use potholders or oven mitts when removing
food or adjusting the oven racks. Wait until the oven
has completely cooled if possible. Oven racks may be
very hot and may cause burns. Remove all oven
racks and rack ladders before starting a self clean
cycle. Clean oven racks according to the instructions
provided in the Care and Cleaning section this
manual.
Your appliance is equipped with flat handle oven racks and
can be placed in most oven rack positions.
Arranging, Removing, and Replacing Oven Racks
IMPORTANT! Remove all oven racks, rack ladders, and
any other accessories from the oven before starting a self
clean cycle.
• To arrange - Always arrange the oven racks when the
oven is cool (prior to operating the oven).
• 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
the oven walls. Tilt the front of the rack upward slightly
and slide the oven rack back into place.
• For ease of removal, racks should not be placed in
adjacent rack positions.
IMPORTANT!
