IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING YOUR 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 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.
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
Never use your appliance for warming or heating
the room.
Use care when opening oven door, lower oven door, or warmer drawer (some models). Stand to the side of the oven 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 potholders contact hot heating 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 or any other material; exposed fat and grease could ignite.
Protective Liners - Do not use aluminum foil or any other materials or liners to line surface or oven bottoms, except as suggested in the manual. Improper installation of these liners may result in a risk of electric shock, or fire.
Do not cook food on the oven bottom. Always cook in proper cookware and always use the oven racks.
Air curtain or other overhead range hoods, which operate by blowing a downward air flow 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.

BEFORE SETTING SURFACE CONTROLS
Control locations of the gas surface burners
Your range is equipped with gas surface burners with different BTU ratings. The ability to heat food quicker and in larger volumes increases as the burner size increases.
The small simmer burner is best used for simmering delicate sauces, etc. This burner is located at the right rear burner position on the cooktop. The standard burner can be used for most surface cooking needs. The standard b urners are located at the left front and left rear positions on the cooktop.
The power burners are best used for bringing large quanti­ties of liquid rapidly up to temperature or when prep aring larger quantities of food. The power 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. Sele ct a burn er and fla me size appropriate to the pan. Never allow flames to extend beyond the outer edge of the pan.
Assembly of the surface burner caps and burner grates
It is very important to make sure that all of the surface burner caps and surface burner grates are installed correctly and at the correct locations.
Figure 1: Proper grate installation
1. Remove all packing material from cooktop area.
2. Discard all packing material (if applicable).
3. Unpack burner grates and position on the cooktop.
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.
Do not allow spills, food, cleaning agents or any other material to enter the gas orifice holder opening.
Always keep the burner caps and burner heads in place whenever the surface burners are in use.

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.
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.

Oven Rack Descriptions
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.
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.
The fully extendable ov en glide rack allows you to effortlessly extend your food away from the oven.
Remove all oven racks and clean according to instruc­tions provided in the Care & Cleaning section of this manual. Never pick up hot oven racks or parts.
All oven racks should be removed before a clean opera­tion. Racks left in the oven during the high heat of the clean function can easily discolor. The ability of the racks to easily slide in and out along the rack positions may also be affected.

Setting Bake
Baking tips For best bake results:
Fully preheat the oven before baking items like cookies,
cakes, biscuits, and breads. When using any single rack, position the rack so that the food is in the center of the oven.
The convection fan will be on during preheat and then turn off and on occasionally as needed.
For best results when baking cakes using two oven racks, place racks in positions 6 (offset rack) and 1 (Glide rack) Figure 14.
When baking using two oven racks, position cookware as shown in Figure 15. Allow at least 2 inches (5 cm) of space between cookware for proper air circulation.
Dark or dull bakeware absorbs more heat than shiny bakeware. It may be necessary to reduce oven temper­ature and cook time to prevent overbrowning of some foods. Dark bakeware is recommended for pies. Shin y bakeware is recommended for cakes, cookies, and muffins.
Important: For batter and dough-based baked goods such as cakes, pastries, and breads, use the regular bake function for best results. For cookies use the convection bake function.
.
Figure 14: Rack positions Figure 15: Pan spacing
Use the bake function whenever a recipe calls for normal baking. When the set bake temperature is reached the control will sound a chime to alert that the oven is fully preheated.
Bake may be set for any temperature between (170°F 77°C) and 550°F (288°C).
To set BAKE for oven temperature of 350°F:
1. Be sure to arrange racks to the desired po sitions for the
item(s) to be baked.
2. Turn the oven mode selector to the BAKE position.
3. Turn the oven temperature selector to 350°F.
4. The PREHEAT and the oven temperature light will turn
on and sound an acceptance tone. The oven will begin heating.
5. When the set temperature is reached a reminder chime will sound alerting you to place food in oven. Set either timer to keep track of actual cooking time if necessary.
6. When finished baking, be sure to return both the temperature selector knob and the oven mode knob to the OFF positions.
Note: Do not open oven door too often. Doing so reduces oven temperature and may extend cooking time.The convection fan will start after the oven has been heating for 6 minutes. It will stop each time the oven door is opened.

Convection Cooking
This mode of cooking enables you to obtain the best results when baking with multiple pans and racks. The oven ca n be programmed for convection baking at any temperature between 170°F to 550°F with a default temperature of 350°F. The convection fan will turn on after 6 minutes and remain on during the convection baking process.
The convection function uses a fan to circulate the oven heat uniformly and continuously around the oven (Figure 16). This improved heat distribution allows for fast, even cooking and browning results. It also gives better baking results when using two oven racks at the same time.
Benefits of convection cooking:
Multiple rack baking.
Some foods may cook faster. Convection baking tips:
Fully preheat the oven before baking items like cookies,
cakes, biscuits, and breads. For best resu lts baking cookies use convection bake function.
If your recipe cooking temperature has not been converted for convection baking, see “Setting Convec-
tion Convert” on page 19 for further instructions on
temperature conversion.
Setting Convection Bake
This mode of cooking enables you to obtain the best results when baking with multiple pans and racks. The oven can be programmed for convection baking at any temperature between 170°F to 550°F.
To set the oven for convection bake and temperature to 350°F:
1. Arrange interior oven racks.
2. Turn the oven mode selector to CONVECT BAKE.
3. Turn the oven temperature selector to 350°F.
4. The convection fan will turn on 6 minutes after the oven
begins heating. Once the oven reaches the set temper­ature the oven will sound a chime indicating the food items can be placed in the oven.
5. When finished baking, be sure to return both the temperature selector knob and the oven mode knob to the OFF positions.
When using any single rack, position the rack so that the food is in the center of the oven.
For best results when baking cakes using two oven racks, place racks in positions 6 with offset rack and 1 using Glide rack (See Figure 16).
When baking using two oven racks, position cookware as shown in Figure 17. Allow at least 2 inches (5 cm) of space between cookware for proper air circulation.
Dark or dull bakeware absorbs more heat than shiny bakeware. It may be necessary to reduce oven temper­ature and cook time to prevent overbrowning of some foods. Dark bakeware is recommended for pies. Shin y bakeware is recommended for cakes, cookies, and muffins.
Do not open oven door too often. Doing so reduces oven temperature and may extend cooking time.
Most baked goods (except cakes) should be baked on pans with no sides or low sides to allow air to circulate.

Setting Convection Convert
This feature must be set before selecting the oven mode and oven temperature by using the user preference setting in the oven display.
Convection convert automatically converts a standard baking recipe for convection baking. Convection convert may only be used with a convection bake cooking mode. Because convection baking generally cooks food faster than normal baking, food items should be checked for doneness before the suggested normal recipe cook times.
To set convection convert:
1. The oven temperature selector must be in the OFF position. Turn the oven mode selector to CONVECT BAKE.
2. Press and hold both the oven light icon and the clock
icon for about 3 seconds until Aut° (Automatic convec­tion convert) appears in the display.
3. Press either the

Setting Convection Roast
Convection roast is best for cooking tender cuts of beef, lamb, pork, and poultry. Use this mode when cooking speed is desired. Convection roasting gently browns the exterior and seals in the juices. Convection roasting uses the bake element, convection element, and fan to circulate the heat evenly and continuously within the oven.
Convection roasting tips:
Use a broiler pan and grid, as well as a roasting rack
(available by mail order). The broiler pan will catch grease drippings, and the grid will help prevent spatters. The roasting rack will hold the meat. Make sure the roasting rack is securely seated on the grid in the broiler pan. Do not use the broiler p an without the grid or cover the grid with aluminum foil or any other material.
Pull the rack out to the stop position before removing food. Position food (fat side up) on the roasting rack.
Do not open the oven door often. Doing so will reduce the temperature in the oven and may increase the cooking time necessary for best results.
It is not recommended to roast chicken on a roasting rack. Use a deep pan and place on rack position 1 (offset rack).

Meat Probe
Use the probe feature for best results when cooking foods such as roasts, hams or poultry, using a probe to check internal temperature is the safest method to ensure properly cooked food. Before using the meat probe read the important information listed here:
The probe feature must be set before setting the cooking mode and oven temperature.
If a timer is running when the meat probe is plugged in, the control will sound a triple beep once and the timer will keep running. The timer must be canceled before the probe temperature can be set.
If the meat probe is unplugged during a cooking function, or plugged in during BROIL, the oven will stop cooking and turn off.
If the meat probe is plugged in while the oven is in a function that allows for the meat probe, the control will sound a triple beep indicating that the meat probe is not allowed. After the alert, the oven will continue to cook to the set oven temperature.
If no cooking mode is selected within 30 seconds of setting the target temperature, the oven mode indicator light will stop blinking. The display will continue to show the meat probe settings until an allowable cooking mode is selected.
When the meat probe is set correctly, the control will signal an alert when the internal food temperature reaches the desired set target temperature. When active, the internal food temperature is visible in the display during the cooking process. This eliminates any guesswork or the need to open the oven door to check a thermometer.
Note: If the meat probe is plugged while the oven is in a function which allows probe cooking, it may be set the following way:
Proper placement of probe in food.
Insert the probe so that the probe tip rests inside the
center of the thickest part of meat or food (Figure 23). For best results, do not allow the probe to cont act bone, fat, gristle, or the cookware.
For bone-in ham or lamb, insert the probe into the center of lowest large muscle or joint.
For meatloaf or casseroles, insert the probe into center of food.
When cooking fish, insert meat probe just above the gill.
For whole poultry or turkey, fu lly insert the probe into the
thickest part of the breast.
Figure 23: Placing probe in poultry To set probe:
1. Insert the probe into the food. Place prepared food on
the desired oven rack position and slide into the oven.
2. Plug the connector end of the probe into the probe receptacle while the oven is still cool.

Adjusting the Oven Temperature
The temperature in the oven is pre-set at the factory. When first using the oven, be sure to follow recipe times and
temperatures.
Do not use oven thermometers such as those found in grocery stores to check the temperature settings inside your oven. These oven thermometers may vary as much as 20 to 40 degrees from actual temperatures.
If you think the oven is cooking too hot or too cool for the temperature you select, you can adjust the actual oven temperature to be more or less than what is displayed by accessing the UPO (User Programmable Offset).
Before adjusting, test a recipe by using a temperature setting higher or lower than the recommended temperatur e. The baking results should help you to decide how mu ch of an adjustment is needed.
To adjust the oven temperature: Important: Make sure both the oven mode selector and the
oven temperature selector are in the OFF position.

Self Cleaning
A self cleaning oven cleans itself with temperatures well above normal cooking temperatures which eliminate soils completely or reduces them to a fine powdered ash you can wipe away with a damp cloth.
While the oven is in operation, the oven heats to tempera­ture much higher than those used in normal cooking. Sounds of metal expansion and contraction are normal. Odor is also normal because the food soil is being removed. Smoke may appear through the oven vent.
Adhere to the following self clean precautions:
Do not spray oven cleaners or oven protective
coatings in or around any part of the oven interior.
Do not clean the oven door gasket (Figure 29). 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 gasket.
Do not use any cleaning materials on the oven door gasket. Doing so could cause damage.
The health of some birds is extremely sensitive to the fumes given off during the clea n cycle of any range . Move birds to another well-ventilated room.
Do not force the oven door open. This can damage the automatic door locking system. Use caution when opening the door after the clean cycle is complete. The oven may still be very hot.
Remove the broiler pan and insert, all utensils, and any aluminum foil from the cooktop and oven. These items cannot withstand high cleaning temperatures and may melt.
Completely remove all oven racks and any accesso­ries. If the oven racks are not removed, they will lose their special coating properties and no longer slide in and out of the oven cavity easily.
Remove any excessive soil or debris from the oven bottom.To clean, use hot, soapy water and a cloth. Large spills can cause heavy smoke or fire when subjected to high temperatures.
Do not allow food spills with a high sugar or acid content (such as milk, tomatoes, sauerkraut, fruit juices, or pie filling) to remain on the surface as they may leave a dull spot even after cleaning.
Clean any soil from the oven frame, the door liner outside the oven door gasket, and the small area at the front center of the oven bottom. These areas heat sufficiently to burn soil on. Clean with soap and water. These areas are shown in white (Figure 29).
Figure 29: Clean around the oven door gasket
To avoid possible burns, use care when opening the oven door after the clean cycle. Stand to the side of the oven when opening the door to allow hot air or steam to escape.
Do not leave small children unattended near the appliance during a clean cycle; the range may become very hot to the touch and may cause burns.
Do not line the oven walls, racks, bottom, or any other part of the range with aluminum foil or with any oven liners or materials. Doing so will destroy heat distribution, produce poor baking results, and cause permanent damage to the oven interior (aluminum foil will melt to the interior surface of the oven).

If you are planning to use the oven directly after a clean cycle, remember to allow time for the oven to cool down and the oven door to unlock. This normally takes about one hour. A 3 hour clean cycle will actually take about 4 hours to complete.
It is recommended to use a 2 hour clean cycle for light soils, a 3 hour cycle for average soils, and a 4 hour cycle for heavy soils.
To set the controls for a 3 hour clean cycle and shut off automatically:
1. Turn both the oven mode and oven temper ature
selectors to CLEAN. The display will show a 3 hour time (normal clean) and the
and + keys.

4. During the clean cycle the time of day remains in the
display and the time remaining in the clean cycle will also be active.(Figure 35)
Figure 36: Hot oven after clean with door still locked
5. When the clean cycle ends the oven will be too hot for
the door to unlock until the oven cools to a safe temper­ature. This may take up to an hour. During this time the display will show Hot along with the door lock icon.
6. At this point CLn will appear in the display and the lock icon will blink and the control will signal the end of the clean cycle with a chime. The internal oven temperature will still be hot enough to cause burns.
To avoid possible burns, use care when opening the oven door after the clean cycle. Stand to the side of the oven when opening the door to allow hot air or steam to escape.
Do not force the oven door open while clean is active. This can damage the automatic door locking system. Use caution when opening the door after the clean cycle is complete. The oven may still be very hot.

CARE AND CLEANING
Cleaning Various Parts of Your Oven
Before cleaning any part of the oven, be sure all co ntrols are turned off and the oven is cool.
Remove spills and any heavy soiling as soon as possible. Regular cleaning will reduce the number of major cleaning later.
Surface Type Recommendation
Aluminum and Vinyl Use hot, soapy water and a cloth. Dry with a clean cloth. Painted body parts
Painted decorative trims
Painted and plastic control knobs and control panel
Surface burners Burner grates
Smudge Proof™ Stainless Steel (some models)
Stainless Steel
Porcelain enamel broiler pan and insert (available by mail order)
Oven interior (Porcelain) Door liner and body parts
Using a soft cloth, clean with mild dish detergent and water or a 50/50 solution of
vinegar and water. Follow by rinsing the area with clean water; dry and polish with a soft cloth. Glass cleaners may be used if sprayed on a soft cloth first. Do not spray liquids directly on the oven control and display area. Do not use large amounts of water on the control panel. Excess water on the control area may cause damage to the appliance. Do not use other liquid cleaners, abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, or paper towels - they will damage the finish.
To remove control knobs, turn to the OFF position; grasp firmly and pull straight off the shaft. To replace knobs after cleaning, line up the flat sides of both the knob and the shaft; then push the knob into place.
For details on cleaning surface burners and grates see “Cleaning the cooktop
and surface burners” om page 30.
Your oven finish may be made with stainless steel (some models). Clean the stainless with warm soapy water using a clean sponge or cloth. Rinse with clean water and dry with a soft clean cloth .
Do not use any store bought cleaners like stainless steel cleaners or any other types of cleaners containing any abrasive, chlorides, chlorine, or ammonia. It is recommended to use mild dish soap and water or a 50/50 solution of water and vinegar.
Gentle scouring with a soapy scouring 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 minutes. Rinse with clean water and a damp cloth, and then scrub with a soap-filled scouring pad. Rinse and wipe dry with a clean cloth. Remove all cleaners or the porcelain may become damaged during future heating.

CAUTION
Cleaning the cooktop and surface burners
To avoid possible burns turn off all of the surface burners and allow them to cool.
Any additions, changes or conversions required in o rder for this appliance to satisfactorily meet the application needs must be made by an authorized qualified agency.
Routinely clean the cooktop. Wipe with a clean, damp cloth and wipe dry to avoid scratches. Keeping the surface burner head ports and slots clean will prevent improper ignition and an uneven flame.
To clean recessed and contoured areas of cooktop
If a spill occurs on or in the recessed or contoured areas, blot up spill with an absorbent cloth. Rinse with a clean, damp cloth and wipe dry.
To clean burner grates
Clean when the grates are cool. Use nonabrasive
plastic scrubbing pad and mild abrasive cleanser.
Food soils containing acids may affect the finish. Clean immediately after the grates are cool. Thoroughly dry grates immediately following cleaning.
To clean burner caps
Remove caps from burner heads after they have
cooled. Clean heavy soils with a plastic scrubbing pad and absorbent cloth. Thoroughly dry burner caps imme­diately following cleaning including the bottom and inside of cap.
Do not use abrasive cleaners. Do not clean burner caps in the dishwasher. Do not operate surface burners without burner caps properly in place.
To clean the surface burner heads
For proper gas flow it may be necessary to clean the burner head and slots. 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 and wipe up using a damp cloth. For stubborn soils located in the slots, use a small-gauge wire or needle to clean. The electrode must be carefully cleaned. Take care not to hit the electrode with any thing hard or it could be damaged.
To clean the burner head ignition ports
Each burner head has a small ignition port (Figure 38). Should you experience ignition problems it may be that this port hole is partially blocked with soil. With the burner head in place, use a small wire gauge needle or the end of a paper clip to clear the ignition port.
Figure 38: Gas burner head parts
Replacing the oven light
Be sure the oven is unplugged and all parts are cool before replacing oven light.
The interior oven lights are located at the rear of the oven cavity and are covered with glass shields. The glass shield must be in place whenever the oven is in use (Figure 39).
1. Turn electrical power off at the main source or unplug the appliance.
2. Remove interior oven light shield by turning the shield gently counter-clockwise and pull the shield straight out. Do not twist or turn.
3. Replace bulb with a new appliance bulb. Replace glass oven light shield.
4. Turn power back on again at the main source (or plug the appliance back in). Be sure to reset the time of day on the clock.

To remove oven door:
1. Open oven door completely horizontal with floor (See
Figure 40).
2. Pull the door hinge locks on both left and right door hinges up from the oven frame completely towards the oven door (See Figure 41). A tool such as a small flat­blade screwdriver may be required to unlock the hinge (Figure 42).
3. Grasp both sides of oven door along the door sides. Do not use the oven door handle (See Figure 43).
4. Keep pulling the bottom of the door toward you while rotating the top of the door toward the appliance to completely disengage the hinge levers(Figure 43).
To replace oven door:
1. Firmly grasp both sides of oven door along the door
sides. Do not use the oven door handle (See
Figure 43).
2. Holding the oven door at the same angle as the removal position, seat the hook of the hinge arm over the roller pins located on each side of the oven door frame (See
Figure 43). The hook of the hinge arms must be fully
seated onto the roller pins.

CARE AND CLEANING
Caring for your glide racks
Handle oven racks only when they are cool. After cooking or after the clean cycle, racks will be very hot and
can cause burns.
Important Notes:
It is recommended to remove all racks from the oven
during clean cycles. After a clean cycle, or anytime the gliding is rough, the glide racks should be treated with graphite lubrication.
Do not use cooking oil, cooking spray, or other oil-based lubrication products on the glide rack extension tracks. Use only the graphite lubrication in this area.
It is important that the parts of the rack that contact the oven sides always have a light coating of vegetable oil. Apply a thin layer of vegetable oil to the sides of the rack after every clean cycle and when the rack becomes difficult to reposition in the oven.
To lubricate the glide rack:
1. Remove the rack from the oven and place the rack on a large flat surface covered with newspaper or scrap cloth. Fully extend the rack.
2. Wipe away debris and crumbs from the glide track using a cloth or sponge.
4. Extend and return the glide rack several times along the tracks to distribute the lubrication.
5. Turn glide rack over. Shake graphite lubrication very well before applying. Place four drops of graphite lubrication along the tracks. Repeat on both sides of the glide rack.
6. Extend and return the glide rack several times along the tracks to distribute the lubrication.
3. Shake graphite lubrication very well before applying. Place four drops of graphite lubrication along the tracks (see area circled on figure below). Repeat on both sides of the glide rack.
32
7. Apply a thin layer of cooking oil to the outer frame of the glide rack as shown below. Keeping the frame sides lightly lubri­cated allows the entire rack to slide easily when changing rack positions.
Replace rack in oven right side up.
