IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Read ail instructions before using this appliance.
- IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE
The California Safe DrinMng 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.
Gas appliances can cause minor exposure to
four of these substances, namely benzene, carbon
monoxide, formaldehyde and soot, caused primarily
by the inconiplete combustion of natural gas or
LP fuels. Properly adjusted burners, indicated by
a bluish rather than a yellow flame, will inininiize
incomplete combustion. Exposure to these
substances can be nüiiiiïiized by venting with an
open window or using a ventilation fan or hood.
When You Get Yoer Range
« Have thé instalier show you the location of the
range gas cut-off valve and how to shut it off
ifuecessary. ■ ^ : - . : ; , .
®Hfeve your range installed and properly
groiinded by a qualified installer, in accordance
with the Installation Instructions. Any adjustment
and service should be performed only by qualified
gas range installers or service technicians.
® Plug your range Into a 120-volt grounded
outlet only. Dp not remove the round grounding
prong from ihe plug; n in doubt about the grounding
of the home electrical system, it is your personal
responsibility and obligation to have an ungrounded
outlet replaced with a properly grounded, threeprong outlet in accordance with the National
Electrical Gode. In Canada, the appliance must
be electrically grounded in accordance with the
Canadian Electrical Code. Do not use an
extension cord with this appliance.
® Be sure ai pacldug materials are removed from
the raîîge before operating it to prevent fire or
smoke ckmage should the packing material ignite.
® Locate range out of kitchen traffic path
and out of draftv locations to orevent uilot
outage (on models with standing pilots) and
poor air circulation.
Be sure your range is correctly adjusted by a
qualified service technician or installer for the
type of gas (natural or LP) that is to be used*
Your range can be converted for usé with either
tvne of eas. See Installation Instructions.
After prolonged use of a range, hi^ fioor
temperatures may result and many floor
coverings will not withstand this Idnd of use.
Never install the range over vinyl tile or linoleum
that cannot withstand such type of use. Never
install it directly over interior kitchen carpeting.
Using Your Range
• Don’t leave children alone or uimttended where
a range is hot or in operation. They cpuid be
seriously burned.
• Don’t allow anyone to climbs stand or hang on

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
(continued)
® For your safety, never use your appliance for
warming or heating the room.
® Do not use water on grease Ores. Never pick up
a flaming pan. Turn oSburaer, then smother
flaming pan by covering pan ^
completely with well-fitting Hd, cookie
sheet or flat tray, Hannng grease outs^^^
a pan can be put but by CQvMng with
baking soda or, if available, a rnulti-purpose dry
chemical or foam-type fire extinguisher.
® Do not store flammahle materials in an oven,
a range storage drawer or near a cooktop.
® Do not store or use combustible materials,
gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids
in the vicinity of this or any other appliance.
® Do not let cooking grease or other flammable
materials accumidate in or near the range.
® When cooking pork, follow the directions
exactly and always cook the meat to an internal
temperature of at least 170°E This assures that, in
the remote possibility that trichina may be present
in the meat, it will be killed and the meat will be
safe to eat.
Always turn surface burner to UFF before
removing cookware.
' Carefully watch foods being fried at a high
flame setting.
Never block the vents (air openings) of the
range. They provide the air inlet and outlet that
are necessary for the range ^t^ operate properly
with correct combustion. Air openings are located^
at the rear of the booktop, at die top and bottom of
the oven door, and at the bottom of the range,
under the kick panel, storage drawer or broiler
drawer (depending on thé model).
• Do not use a wok on models with sealed burners
if the wok has a round metal ring that is placed
over the burner grate to support the wok. This
ring acts as a heat trap, which may damage the
burner grate and burner head. Also, it may cause
the burner to work improperly. This may cause a
carbon monoxide level above that allowed by
current standards, resulting in a health hazard.
s Foods for frying should be as dry as possible*
Frost on frozen foods or moisture on firesh foods
can cause hot fat to bubble up and over sides
of pan.
Surface Cooking
® Always use the LITE position (on models with
electric ignition) or the HI position (on models
with standing pOots) when igniting top burners
and make sure the burners have ignited.
® Never leave surface burners unattended at
high flame settings. Boilovef causes smoking
and greasy spillovers that may catch on fire.
® Adjust top burner flame size so it does not
extend beyond the edge of the cookware.
Excessive flame is hazardous.
® Use only dry pot holders—moist dr d^p
pot holders on hot surfaces may result in bums
from steam. Do not let pot holders
come near open flames when
lifting cookware. Do not use a
towel or other bulky cloth in place
of a pot holder.
To minimize the possibility of burns, ignition
of flammable materials, and spillage, turn
cookware handles toward the side or back of the
range without extending over adjacent burners.
s Use least possible amount of fat for effective
shallow or deep-fat frying* Filling the pan too ,
full of fat can cause spillovers when food is added.
• K a combination of oils or fats will be used
in frying^ stir together before heating or as fats
melt slowly.
• Always heat fat slowly, and watch as it heats.
• Use a deep fat thermometer whenever
possible to prevent overheating fat beyond the
smoking point.
® Use proper pan size-^—^Avoid pans that are
unstable or easily tipped. Select cookware having
flat bottoms large enough to properly contsdn food
and avoid bbilovers and spillovers and large
enough to cover burner grate. This will both save
cleaning time and prevent hazardous acéiimulations
of food, since heavy spattering or spillovers left
oriTange can ignite. Use pans with handles that
can be easily grasped and remain cool.
• When using glass cookware, make sure it is
designed for top-of-range cooking.
• Keep all plastics away from top burners.
Page 5
De net leave plastic
Items on the
cooktop— they may
melt if left too close to
the vent.
® Do not leave any
items on the cooktop* The hot air from the vent
may ignite flammable items and will increase
pressure in closed containers, which may cause
them to burst.
• To avoid the possibility of a burn? always be
certain that the controls for all burners are at
the OFF position and all grates are cool before
attempting to remove them.
« When flaming foods are under the hood? turn
the fan off. The fan, if operating, may spread
the flames.
• If range is located near a window, do not hang
long curtains that could blow over the top bumers
and create a fire hazard.
- Don ’t heat unopened food containers In the
oven. Pressure could build up and the
coniaiaer could burst, causing an liyury*
• Don’t use aluminum foil anywhere in the oven
except as described in this book. Misuse could
result in a fire hazard or damage to the range.
• When using cooking pr roasting bags In oven,
follow the manufacturer’s directions.
» Use only glass cookware that is recommended
for use in gas ovens,
• Always remove broiler pan from oven as soon
as you finish brpiMng. G^^ the pan can
catch fire if oven is used without removing the
grease from the broiler pan.
• When brpfling[i if meat is too close to the flame,
the fat may ignite. Trim excess fat to prevent
excessive flare-ups. _
• Make sure broiler pan is in place correcSy to
reduce the possibility of grease fires.

® When a pilot goes out (on a luodel with standing
pilots), you will detect a faint odor of gas as your
signal to relight the pilot. When relighting the
pilot, make sure burner controls are in the OFF
position, and follow instructions in the Surface
Cooking section to relight.
® If you smell gas, and you have already made sure
pilots are lit (on some models), turn off the gas to
the range and call a qualified service technician.
Never use an open fliime to locate a leak.
Baking, Broiling and Roasting
» Do not use oven for a storage area. Items
stored in the oven can Ignite.
® Stand away from the range when opening the
door of a hot oven. The hot air and steam that
escape can cause burns to hands, face and eyes.
® Keep oven free from grease buildup.
® Place oven shelves In desired position while
oven Is cool.
® Pulling out shelf to the shelf-stop is a
convenience In lifting heavy foods. It is also

Electric Ignition Models
SURFACE COOKING
Your surface burners are lighted by electric ignition,
eliminating the need for standing pilot lights with
constantly burning flames.
In case of a power failure, you can light the surface
burners on your range with a match. Hold a lighted
match to the burner, then turn the knob to the LITE
position. Use extreme eautiGn when lighting burners
this way.

Electric Ignition Models:
Push the control knob in and
turn it to LITE. You will hear
a little “Glic-king” noise—the
sound of the electric spark
igniting the burner.
After the burner ignites, turn the
knob to adjust the flame size.

on the grate may chip without cookware to absorb
the heat.
® Be sure the burners and grates are cool before you
place your hand, a pot holder, cleaning cloths or
other materials on them.
Standing Pilot Model:
Push control knob in and turn it to HI position.
The burner should light within a few seconds.
After the burner ignites, turn the knob to adjust the
flame size.
Flame will be almost horizontal and will lift
slightly away from the burner when the burner
is first turned on. A blowing or hissing sound
may be heard for 30 to 60 seconds. This normal
sound is due to improved injection of gas and air
into the burner. Put a pan on the burner before lighting
it, or adjust the flame to match pan size as soon as

How to Select Flame Size
Watch the flame, not the knob, as you reduce heat.
The flame size on a gas burner should match the
cookware you are using.
FOR SAFE HANDLING OF
COOKWARE NEVER LET
THE FLAME EXTEND
UP THE SIDES OF THE
COOKWARE. Any flame larger than the bottom

the handle.
Top-of-Range Cookware
Aluminum; Medium-weight cookware is
recommended because it heats quickly and evenly.
Most foods brown evenly in an aluminum skillet. Use
saucepans with tight-fitting lids when cooking with
minimum amounts of water.
Cast-Iron: If heated slowly, most skillets will give
satisfactory results.
Enamelware: Under some conditions, the enamel of
some cookware may melt. Follow cookware
manufacturer’s recommendations for cooking methods.
Glass: There are two types of glass cookware—those
for oven use only and those for top-of-range cooking
(saucepans, coffee and teapots). Glass conducts heat
very slowly.
When boiling, adjust the flame so the circle it makes
is about 1/2 inch smaller than the bottom of the
cookware—no matter what the cookware is made of.
Foods cook just as quickly at a gentle boil as they do
o •ftitM/'Mic r-rfcllii-irr Knil A ViiirH hnil
at a XtXXXt./tlk3j XV^XXXll^ C/\^XX. X x. xxxgxx c/\-^xx wxwM^wk^ UJWWJI**
and cooks away moisture, flavor and nutrition. Avoid
it except for the few cooking processes that need a
vigorous boil.
When fr3dng or warming foods in stainless steel,
cast iron or enamelware, keep the flame down
lower—to about 1/2 the diameter of the pan.
When frying in glass or ceramic cookware, lower
the flame even more.
Heatproof Glass Ceramic: Can be used for either
surface or oven cooking. It conducts heat very
slowly and cools very slowly. Check cookware
manufacturer’s directions to be sure it can be used
on gas ranges.
Stainless Steel: This metal alone has poor heating
properties and is usually combined with copper,
aluminum or other metals for improved heat
distribution. Combination metal skillets usually work
satisfactorily if they are used with medium heat as the
manufacturer recommends.
Wok Cooking
(on models with sealed burners)
• We recommend that you
use only a flat-bottomed
wok. They are available at
your local retail store.
* Do not use woks that have
support rings. Use of these
types of woks, with or
VVXVXXV^XXb XXXW XXXX^ XXX
tb<a rinrr in п1яг<=»
can be dangerous. Bacing the
ring over the burner grate may
cause the burner to work improperly resulting in
carbon monoxide levels above allowable current
хш» k^uuiu uc uaiigduua tw ixwcui.ii.
Do not try to use such woks without the ring. You
could be seriouslv burned if the wok tipped over.
10
Use of Stove Top Grills
(on models with sealed burners)
Do not use stove top grills
on your sealed gas burners.
If you use the stove top
grill on the sealed gas
burner it will cause

Oven Temperature Adjustment
me Lcmpcicuuic ^»ciceieu uii uie uiciiJiiu&uii vxiai
determines the average of the maximum and minimum
temperatures reached during the cycling of the oven
burner. The thermostat control in your new oven has
been carefully designed and manufactured to provide
accurate temperatures. If your new oven is replacing
one you have used for several years, you may notice
a difference in die degree of browning or the length of
time required when using your favorite recipes. This
is because oven temperature controls have a tendency
to “drift” over a period of years.
Before attempting to have the temperature of your
new oven changed, be sure you have carefully
followed the baking time and temperature
recommended by the recipe. Then, after you have used
the oven a few times and you feel the oven is too hot or
too cool, there is a simple adjustment you can make
yourself on the OVEN CONTROL knob.
Oven Moisture
As your oven heats up, the temperature change of the
air in the oven may cause water droplets to form on
the door glass. These droplets are harmless and will
evaporate as the oven continues to heat up.
Oven Light (on some models)
The oven light comes on automatically when the door
is opened. Some models have a switch on the lower
control panel that allows you to turn the light on or off
when the door is closed.
Pull the knob off the range and look at the back side.
To make adjustment, loosen (approximately one turn),
but do not completely remove, the two screws on the
back of the knob. With the back of the knob facing
you, hold the outer edge of the knob with one hand
and turn the front of the knob with the other hand.
To raise the oven temperature, move the top screw
toward the right. You’ll hear a click for each notch
you move the knob. To lower the temperature, move
the top screw toward the left. Each click will change
the oven temperature approximately 10°F. (Range is
plus or minus 60°F. from the arrow.)
We suggest that you make the adjustment one click
from the originai setting and check oven performance
before making any additional adjustments.
After the adjustment is made, retighten screws so they
are snug, but be careful not to overtighten. Reinstall
knob on range and check performance.

How To Set Your Range For Baking

|1. To avoid possible burns, place the shelves in the
correct position before you turn the oven on.
2. Close oven door. If your model has a separate
BAKE/BROIL switch, turn it to BAKE. Turn
OVEN CONTROL knob to desired temperature.
Oven Shelves
Arrange the oven
shelf or shelves
in the desired
locations while

on the kind of
food and the
browning desired.

Preheating is necessary for good results when baking
cakes, cookies, pastry and breads. For most casseroles

Pan Piacement
For even cooking and proper browning, there must be
enough room for air circulation in the oven. Baking
results will be better if baking pans are centered as
much as possible rather than being placed to the front
or to the back of the oven.
Pans should not touch each other or the walls of the
oven. Allow 1 to 1/4 inch space between pans as well
as from the back of the oven, the door and the sides.
If you use two shelves, stagger the pans so one is not
directly above the other.

Cakes
When baking cakes, warped or bent pans will cause
uneven baking results and poorly shaped products.
A cake baked in a pan larger than the recipe

not open the door to look at your food. Nlcst recipes
provide minimum and maximum baking times such
as “bake 30-40 miniites.”
DO NOT open the door to check until the minimum
time. Opening the oven door frequently during
cooking allows heat to escape and makes baking

How to Broil
BROILING
l/A
Broiling is cooking food by direct heat from above the
food. Your range has either a broiler in the oven or a
compartment below the oven for broiling. A specially
designed broiler pan and rack allows dripping fat to
drain away from the foods and be kept away from the

compartment. Placing food closer to flame
increases exterior browning of food, but also
increases spattering and the possibility of fats and
meat juices igniting.
4. Close the oven or broiler door.
5. Turn OVEN CONTROL knob and BAKE/BROIL

bits of steel wool will short out the electrode. Rinse
well.
For more stubborn stains, use a cleanser like Soft
Scrub® brand or Bon Ami® brand. Rinse well to
remove any traces of the cleanser that might clog the
burner openings. Do not use steel wool because it will
clog the burner openings and scratch the burners. If
the holes become clogged, clean them with a toothpick.
Before putting the burner head back, shake out excess
water and dry it thoroughly by setting it in a warm
oven for 30 minutes. Then place it back in the range,
making sure the pin in the burner base goes in the
hole in the burner head, and that the burner heads are
properly seated and level.
Orip Fans (on some models)
Remove the grates
and lift out the drip
pans. Drip pans can
be cleaned in
dishwasher or by
hand. Place them in a
covered container (or
plastic bag) with 1/4- cup ammonia to loosen the soil.
Then scrub with a soap-filled scouring pad if necessary.
Burner Grates
Lift out when cool.
Grates should be
washed regularly
and, of course,
after spillovers.
Wash them in hot, soapy water and rinse with clean
water. After cleaning, dry them thoroughly by putting
them in a warm oven for a few minutes. Don’t put the
grates back on the range while they are wet. When
replacing the grates, be sure they’re positioned
securely over the burners.
To get rid of bumed-on food, place the grates in a
covered container (or plastic bag) with 1/4 cup
ammonia to loosen the soil. Then scrub with a
soap-filled scouring pad if necessary.
Although they’re durable, the grates will gradually
lose their shine, regardless of the best care you can
give them. This is due to their continual exposure to
high temperatures.
Do not operate a burner for an extended period of
time without cookware on the grate. The finish on the
grate may chip without cookware to absorb the heat.

To make cleaning easier, protect the oven bottom
from excessive spillovers by placing a cookie sheet
on the shelf below the shelf you are cooking on. You
can use aluminum foil if you do not cover the whole

The oven door is removable but it is heavy. You may
need help removing and replacing the door.
TO REMOVE THE
DOOR, open it a few
inches to the special
stop position that will
hold the door open.
Grasp firmly on each
side and lift the door
straight up and off
the hinges.
NOTE: Be careful not
to place hands between
the hinge and the oven
door frame as the hinge
could snap back and
pinch fingers.
TO REPLACE THE DOOR, make
sure the hinges are in the special stop position.
Position the slots in the bottom of the door squarely
over the hinges. Then lower the door slowly and
evenly over both hinges at the same time. If hinges
snap back against the oven frame, pull them back out.
V il
TO CLEAN THE DOOR:
(Do not immerse door in water.)
Inside of door:
• Allow to cool before cleaning. For light soil, wipe
frequently with mild soap and water (especially after
cooking meat). Thjs will prolong the time between

the oven is reheated.
• For heavy soil, choose an oven cleaner (for
Continuous Cleaning oven, before applying
commercial oven cleaner, remove the oven door)
and follow label instructions. Rinse well.
Outside of door:
• Use soap and water to thoroughly clean the top,
sides and front of the oven door. Rinse well. You

Soap and water will normally do the job. Heavy
spattering or spillovers may require cleaning with a
mild abrasive cleanser. Soapy, wet pads may also be
used. 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. They
may cause dull spots even after cleaning.
Household ammonia may make the cleaning job
easier. Place 1/2 cup ammonia in a shallow glass pan
and leave in a cold oven overnight. The ammonia
fumes will help loosen the burned-on grease and food.
When necessary, you may use a commercial oven
cleaner. Follow the package directions.
• DOnot spray oven cleaner on the electrical controls
and switches (on some models) because it could
cause a short circuit and result in sparking or fire.
• Do not allow a film from the cleaner to remain on
the temperature sensing bulb—it could cause the
oven to heat improperly. (The bulb is located at the
rear of the oven.) Carefully wipe the bulb clean after
each oven cleaning, being careful not to move the

Special Care of Continuous-Cleaning Oven Interior (on some models)
The Continuous-Cleaning Oven deans itself while
cooking. The oven walls are finished with a special
coating that cannot be cleaned in the usual manner with
nleanpTS roarsp. ahrasivp nadc nr pnarcp hnichpc TTcp nf
-------------,-------------------------
such cleansers and/or the use of oven sprays will cause
permanent damage.
The special coating is a porous ceramic material,
which is dark in color and feels slightly rough to the
touch. If magnified, the surface would appear as peaks,
valleys and sub-surface “tunnels.” This rough finish
tpnHc tn crri»i»cf» cnQtt#»rc from forminrr litfli»
beads or droplets that run down the side walls of a
hard-surface oven liner, leaving unsightly streaks that
require hand cleaning. Instead, when spatter hits the
porous finish, it is dispersed and partially absorbed.
This Spreading action increases the exposure of oven
soil to heated air and makes it somewhat less noticeable.
Sot! may xlOi disappear completely and at some time
after extended usage, stains may appear that cannot
be removed.
The special coating works best on small amounts of
spatter. It does not work well with larger spills,
especially sugars, egg or dairy mixtures.
This special coating is not used on oven shelves,
oven bottom or door liner. Remove these to clean
with a commercial oven cleaner to prevent damaging
the CoRtinuous=Cleaning Oven coating.

To Clean the Continuous-Cleaning Oven:
1. Let range parts cool before handling. We recommend
rubber gloves be worn when cleaning.
2. Remove shelves and cookware.
3. Soil visibility may be reduced by operating the oven
at 400°F. Close the door and turn OVEN CONTROL
knob to 400°F. Time for at least four hours. Repeated
cycles may be necessary before improvement in
appearance is apparent.
Remember: During the operation of the oven, the
^ ns-BwIVkAAn ««rail 4-a
uvFUl «situ xaitgc 9U£i.«tcca will gci iiut ciiuugii iu
cause burns. Do not touch. Let the range cool before
replacing oven shelves.
4. If a spillover or heavy soiling occurs on the porous
surface, as soon as the oven has cooled, remove as
much of the soil as possible using a small amount of
water and a stiff-bristle nylon brush. Use water
sparingly and change it frequently, keeping it as
clean as possible, and be sure to blot it up with paper
towels, cloths or sponges. Do not rub or scrub with
paper towels, cloths or sponges, since they will leave
unsightly lint on the oven finish. If water leaves a
white ring on the finish as it dries, apply water again
and blot it with a clean sponge, starting at the edge
of the ring and working toward the center.
The oven bottom and the inside of the oven door
have a porcelain enamel finish. The oven door lifts
off and the oven bottom comes out for cleaning away
from the Continuous-Cleaning Oven.
26
Do not use soap, detergent, steel wool pads,
commercial oven cleaner, silicone oven sprays,
coarse pads or coarse brushes on the porous
surface. These products will spot, clog and damage
the porous surface and reduce its ability to work.
Do not scrape the porous surface with a knife or
spatula— they
The storage drawer is a good place to store cookware
and bakeware. Do not store plastics and flammable
material in the drawer.
Do not overload the storage drawer. If the drawer is

behind the range should be sealed. Make sure
the openings around the base of the range that
supply fresh air for combustion and ventilation
are not obstructed bv caroeting or woodwork.
PROTECT YOUR FLOOR
Your range, like many other household items, is
heavy and can settle into soft floor coverings such
V^VA.WJ.X.-.vrjLXV^Vl. V ±±XJ A. V/A V.'CVL OV^ V/ VVXIV^JIX
moving the range on this type of flooring. It is
recommended that the following simple and
inexpensive instructions be followed to protect
your floor. The range should be installed on a sheet
of plywood (or similar material). Whcfi tkcfloof
covering ends at the front of the range, the area
that the range will rest on should be built up with
plywood to the same level or higher than the
floor covering. This will allow the range to be

LU PROVIDE ADEQUATE GAS SUPPLY
Your range is designed to operate at a pressure ^
of 4" of water column on natural gas or, if designed
for LP gas (propane or butane), Vd" of water
column. Make sure you are supplying your range
with the type of gas for which it is designed. This
range is convertible for use on natural or propane
gas, if you decide to use this range on a different
type of gas, conversion adjustments must be made
by a service technician or other qualified person
before attempting to operate the range on that gas.
For proper operation, the pressure of natural gas
supplied to the regulator must be between 4" and
13" of water column. For LP gas, the pressure

column. When checking for proper operation of
die regulator, the inlet pressure must be at least
1" greater than the operating (manifold) pressure
as given above. The pressure regulator located
at the inlet of the range manifold must remain in
the supply line regardless of whether natural or
LP gas is being used. A flexible metal appliance
connector used to connect the range to the gas
supply line should have an I.D. of 1/2" and b^e
5 feet in length (shorter and longer lengths are
acceptable) for ease of installation. In Canada,
flexible connectors must be single wall metal
connectors no longer than 6 feet in length.

to relight the pilot on other gas appliances when
you turn the gas back on.
Because hard piping restricts movement of the
range, the use of an A.G.A.-certified flexible
metal appliance connector is recommended
unless local codes require a hard-piped
connection. Never use an old connector when
installing a new range. If the hard piping method
is used, you must carefully align the pipe; the
range cannot be moved after the connection
