IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
CAUTION
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.
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
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.

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 word REAR is stamped on the back of the burner
grates to help assure that the proper end of the grates are placed to the rear of 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.

IMPORTANT
CAUTION

SETTING SURFACE BURNERS

Operating the gas surface controls

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.
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.
Do not place flammable items such as plastic salt and pepper shakers, spoon holders or plastic wrap p ing s 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.
The cooktop should not be used during a self-clean cycle. On some models, turning on any cooktop surface burner will cause the clean cycle to cancel. If the clean cycle is canceled, the oven control display will show “SPr" for 5 seconds. The oven door will remain locked until the oven has cooled down below cleaning temperature. If the oven is below cleaning temperature, the user can start another clean cycle immediately. If the oven is in cleaning temperature range, another self-clean cycle can be set once the door unlocks (up to 4 hours).
1. Place cooking utensil on surface burner.
2. Push the surface control knob in and turn counterclock-
wise out of the OFF position.
3. Release the knob and rotate to the LITE position (see figure 2). Note: All four electronic surface ignitors will spark at the same time. However, only the burner you are turning on will ignite.
4. Visually check that the burner has a flame.
5. Turn the control knob counterclockwise to the desired
flame size. The control knobs do not have to be set at a particular setting. Use the knob indicator settings to adjust the flame as needed. Do not cook with the surface control knob in the LITE position. (The elec tronic ignitor will continue to spark if the knob is left in the LITE position.)

CAUTION

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.
