WARNING!
IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE
TheCalifornia Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act requires the Governor of California to
publish a list of substances known to the state to cause 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 incomplete combustion of natural gas or
LPfuels. Properly adjusted burners, indicated by a bluish rather than a yellow flame, will minimize
incomplete combustion. Exposure to these substances can be minimized by venting with an open
window or using a ventilation fan or hood.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Have the installer show you the location of the range gas shut-off valve and how to shut it off if necessary.
Have your range installed and properly
grounded by a qualified installer, in
accordance with the Instalk_tion Instructions.
Any adjustment and service should be
performed only by qualified gas range
installers or service technicians.
Do not attempt to repair or replace any
p(]rt of your range unless it is specific(lily
recommended in this m(]nu(]l. All other service
should be referred to (] qu(]lified technician.
Plug your range into (] 120-volt grounded
outlet only. Do not remove the round
grounding prong from the plug. If in doubt
(]bout the grounding of the home electric(]l
system, it is your person(]l responsibility and
oblig(]tion to hove on ungrounded outlet
replaced with (] properly grounded, 3-prong
outlet in accord(]nce with the Nation(]l
Electric(]l Code. Do not use on extension

SAFETYPRECAUTIONS
Locate the range out of kitchen traffic path
and out of drafty locations to prevent poor
air circulation.
Be sure all packaging materials are removed
from the range before operating it to prevent
fire or smoke damage should the packaging
material ignite.
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 use
with either type of gas. See the Installation
of the range section.
WARNING:Theseadjustments
must be made by a qualified service
technician in accordance with the
manufacturer's instructions and all codes
and requirements of the authority having
jurisdiction. Failure to follow these instructions
could result in serious injury or property
damage. The qualified agency performing
this work assumes responsibility for the
conversion.
After prolonged use of a range, high floor
temperatures may result and many floor
coverings will not withstand this kind 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.
Do not leave children alone or unattended
where a range is hot or in operation.
They could be seriously burned.
Do not allow anyone to climb, stand or hang
on the oven door, lower oven drawer, warming
drawer or cooktop. They could damage the
range and even tip it over, causing severe
personal injury.
CAUTION:Items of interest to
children should not be stored in cabinets
above a range or on the backsplash of a
rangeichildren climbing on the range to
reach items could be seriously injured.
Never wear loose-fitting or hanging garments
while using the appliance. Be careful when
reaching for items stored in cabinets over the
range. Flammable material could be ignited
if brought in contact with flame or hot oven
surfaces and may cause severe burns.
Do not store flammable materials in an oven,
a range 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 accumulate in or near the range.
Do not use water on grease fires. Never pick
up a flaming pan. Turn the controls off.
Smother a flaming pan on a surface burner
by covering the pan completely with
a well-fitting lid, cookie sheet or flat tray.
Use a multi-purpose dry chemical or
foam-type fire extinguisher.
Flaming grease outside a pan can be put
out by covering it with baking soda or,
if available, by using a multi-purpose dry
chemical or foam-type fire extinguisher.
Flame in the upper oven or lower oven drawer
can be smothered completely by closing the
oven door or drawer and turning the control
to off or by using a multi-purpose dry
chemical or foam-type fire extinguisher.
Let the burner grates and other surfaces cool
before touching them or leaving them where
children can reach them.
Never block the vents (air openings) of the
range. They provide the air inlet and outlet
that are necessary for the range to operate
properly with correct combustion. Air openings
are located at the rear of the cooktop, at the
top and bottom of the oven door, and at the
bottom of the range under the warming
drawer, lower oven drawer or kick panel.
Large scratches or impacts to glass doors
can lead to broken or shattered glass.
WARNING: NEVERusethis
appliance as a space heater to heat or
warm the room. Doing so may result
in carbon monoxide poisoning and
4
overheating of the oven.

WARNING!
SURFACEBURNERS
Use proper pan s/zelavoid pans that are unstable or easily tipped. Select cookware having flat
bottoms large enough to cover burner grates. Toavoid spillovers, make sure cookware is large enough
to contain the food properly. This will both save cleaning time and prevent hazardous accumulations
of food, since heavy spattering or spillovers left on range can ignite. Use pans with handles that can
be easily grasped and remain cool.
Always use the L/TE position when igniting
the top burners and make sure the burners
have ignited.
Never leave the surface burners unattended
at high flame settings. Boilovers cause smoking
and greasg spillovers that may catch on fire.
Adjust the top burner flame size so it does
not extend begond the edge of the cookware.
Excessive flame is hazardous.
Use onlg drg pot holders- moist or damp pot
holders on hot surfaces mag result in burns
from steam. Do not let pot holders come near
open flames when lifting cookware. Do not use
a towel or other bulks cloth in place of a pot
holder.
When using glass cookware, make sure it
isdesigned for top-of-range cooking.
To minimize the possibilitg of burns, ignition
of flammable materials and spillage, turn
cookware handles toward the side or back
of the range without extending over adjacent
burners.
Carefullg watch foods being fried at a high
flame setting.
Alwags heat fat slowlg, and watch as it heats.
Do not leave ang items on the cooktop. The
hot air from the vent mag ignite flammable
items and will increase pressure in closed
containers, which mag cause them to burst.
If a combination of oils or fats will be used
in frging, stir together before heating or
as fats melt slowlg.
Use a deep fat thermometer whenever
possible to prevent overheating fat begond
the smoking point.
Use the least possible amount of fat for
effective shallow or deep-fat frging. Filling the
pan too full of fat can cause spillovers when
food is added.
Do not flame foods on the cooktop. If you
do flame foods under the hood, turn the
fan on.
Do not use a wok on the cooking surface
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 mag
damage the burner grate and burner head.
Also, it mag cause the burner to work
improperlg. This mag cause a carbon
monoxide level above that allowed bg current
standards, resulting in a health hazard.
Foods for frging should be as drg as possible.
Frost on frozen foods or moisture on fresh
foods can cause hot fat to bubble up and
over the sides of the pan.
Never trg to move a pan of hot fat, especiallg
a deep fat frger. Wait until the fat is cool.
Do not leave plastic items on the cooktop-
theg mag melt if left too close to the vent.
Keep all plastics awag from the surface
burners.
To avoid the possibilitg of a burn, alwags be
certain that the controls for all burners are
at the OFF position and all grates are cool
before attempting to remove them.
If range is located near a window, do not hang
long curtains that could blow over the surface
burners and create a fire hazard.
If SOUsmell gas, turn off the gas to the range
and call a qualified service technician. Never
use an open flame to locate a leak.
Alwags turn the surface burner controls off
before removing cookware.
Do not lift the cooktop. Lifting the cooktop can
lead to damage and improper operation of the
range.
When disabling Gas/Control Lockout, make
sure the surface controls are set to the OFF
position. This will preclude gas flow when the
range is turned on.

the drawer a crack and let hot air or steam
escape before removing or replacing food.
Hot air or steam which escapes can cause
burns to hands, face and/or eyes.
Do not use aluminum foil to line the lower
oven drawer. Foil is an excellent heat insulator
and will trap heat beneath it. This will upset
the performance of the drawer and it could
damage the interior finish.
COOK MEATAND POULTRY THOROUGHLY...
Cook meat and poultry thoroughly-meat to ot least on INTERNALtemperature of160°F and poultry
to ot least on INTERNALtemperature of l 80°E Cooking to these temperatures usually protects against
foodbome illness.
SELF-CLEANING THE UPPEROVEN
Be sure to wipe off excess spillage before
self-cleaning operation.
Before self-cleaning the oven, remove any
broiler pan, broiler grid, all cookware, probe
and any aluminum foil.
Never place, use or self-clean the lower oven
drawer pan in the upper oven.
Nickel oven racks (on some models) should be
removed from the oven before beginning the
self-clean cycle.
Gray porcelainicoated oven racks (on some
models) may be cleaned in the oven during
the self-clean cycle.
Clean only parts listed in this Owner's Manual.

Pulling out the rack to the stop-lock is a
convenience in lifting heavy foods. It is also
a precaution against burns from touching hot
surfaces of the door or oven walls. The lowest
position isnot designed to slide.
Do not heat unopened food containers.
Pressure could build up and the container
could burst, causing an injury.
WARNING: NEVERcoverany
slots, holes or passages in the oven bottom
or cover an entire rack with materials such
as aluminum foil. Doing so blocks air flow
through the oven and may cause carbon
monoxide poisoning. Aluminum foil linings
may also trap heat, causing a fire hazard.
Do not use aluminum foil anywhere in the
oven except as described in this manual.
Misuse could result in a fire hazard or damage
to the range.
When using cooking or roasting bags in the
oven, follow the manufacturer's directions.
Do not use your oven to dry newspapers.
If overheated, they can catch fire.
Use only glass cookware that is recommended
for use in gas ovens.
Always remove any broiler pan from range
as soon as you finish broiling. Grease left in
the pan can catch fire if oven is used without
removing the grease from the broiler pan.
When broiling, if meat istoo close to the flame,
the fat may ignite. Trim excess fat to prevent
excessive flare-ups.
Make sure any broiler pan is in place correctly
to reduce the possibility of grease fires.
If you should have a grease fire in a broiler
pan, press the Clear/Off pad, and keep
the oven door closed to contain fire until

Upper Oven Vent
Your oven is vented through ducts at the rear
ofthe range. Donot block these ducts when

Convection Bake
Preheat the oven. See the Using the oven-

Ideal for foods cooked on multiple racks.
Good for large quantities ofbaked foods.
, Good results with cookies,biscuits,
brownies, cupcakes,cream puffs, sweet
rolls, angel foodcake and bread.
Theconvection fan circulates the heated
air evenly over and around the food.
Convection Roast
Good for large tender cutsof meat,

be circulated over,under and around the
food being roasted.Theheated air sealsin
juices quicklu for a moist and tender product
while, at the same time, creating a rich,
golden-brown exterior.
Roastsor poultrg shouldbe cooked on rack
position (A).
When you are convection roasting,it is
important that you usea broiler pan andgrid
for bestconvection roasting results.The pan
isused to catch grease spillsand the grid is
usedto prevent grease spatters.

Metal and Glass
Any type of cookware willwork in your
convection oven. However, metal pans heat
the fastest and are recommended for
convection baking.
_,Darkened or matte-finished pans will bake
Paper and Plastic
Heat-resistant paper and plastic containers

NOTES:
The griddle is to be used over the center
burner onlg.
Do not clean the griddle in a dishwasher
Wash with hot, soapg water after each use
while using a sponge or dishcloth.
Ifoil or food residue is left on the griddle,
further cooking willharden the residue and
cause sticking over time. In this case, use a
nonabrasive cleanser such as Ban Ami ®or
one of the soft scrub cleansers. Applg with
a sponge, Scrunge® or other cleaning pad
labeled safe for nonstick pans.
Use onlg plastic, nylon or wooden utensils
or SilverStone®kitchen tools to prevent
marring of the coating.
Burner Grates
Yourrange hasthree professional-style
double grates.Thesegrates are position-
specific.For maximum stability, these grates
should only be used intheir proper position;
they cannot be interchanged left to right
or front to back. For convenience,the
undersides of the left and right grates are
marked "LEFTFRONT"and "RIGHTFRONT."
Hake surethe front portion of both grates is
in front. The middle grate hasa bow infront.
Hake surethe bowed portion istoward the
front of the range.
Cleaning
Lift out when cool. Gratesshould be washed
regularly and,of course,after spillovers.
Wash them in hot, soapy water and rinse
with clean water.When replacingthe grates,
be surethey are positioned securely over
the burners. Replacethe grates so that
continuous arcsareformed with the center
ribs of allthree grates.
Never use knives or cut food on the griddle.
Wash with hot, soap_l water offer each use.
Store carefullg to prevent scratching.
Griddle Precautions:
Ifsomething has spilled under the griddle,
it should be cleaned up as soon as possible
to prevent "baked on" food soil.
iiiiiiiii_
Do not allow grease to accumulate under
the griddle as it can be a firehazard. Clean
under the griddle as soon as it is cool. Clean
with hot soapy water
Do not place gour griddle in the microwave.
Alwablsturn offallsurface burnersbefore
removing thegriddle.Usecaution when
handling o hot griddle.
Donot operate a burner for an extended
period of time without cookware on the grate.
Thefinish onthe grate may chip without
cookware to absorb the heat.
Toget rid of burned-on food, place the grates
in a covered container.Add 1/4 cup ammonia
and letthem soak several hoursor overnight.
Wash,rinse well and dry.
Although they are durable,the grates will
gradually losetheir shine, regardlessof the
best care you can give them. This isdue
to their continual exposureto high
temperatures. Youwill notice this
soonerwith lighter color grates.
NOTE:Donot clean the grates in a self-
cleaning oven.
Cooktop Surface
To avoid damaging the porcelain-enamel
surface of the cooktop and to prevent it
from becoming dull, clean up spills right
away. Foods with a lot of acid (tomatoes,
sauerkraut, fruitjuices, etc.) or foods with
high sugar content could cause a dull spot
if allowed to set.
When the surface hascooled,wash and
rinse. Forother spillssuch asfat spatterings,
wash with soap and water once the surface
has cooled.Then rinseand polishwith a dry
cloth.
NOTE:Do not store flammable materials
in an oven, drawer or near the cooktop.
Do not store or use combustible materials,
gasoline or other flammable vapors and
liquids in the vicinitg of this or any other
appliance.
NOTE:Do not liftthe cooktop. Lifting the
cooktop con lead to damage and improper
operation of the range.

or heating the room. Your oven and cooktop are not
designed to heat gour kitchen. Top burners should
not be operated without cookware on the grate. Such
abuse could result in fire and damage to gour range
and will void gour warrantg.
• Do not store or use combustible materials, gasoline
or other flammable vapors and liquids in the vicinitg
of this or ang other appliance. Explosions or fires
could result.
LOCATION
Do not locate the range where it mag be subject to
strong drafts. Ang openings in the floor or wall behind
the range should be sealed. Hake sure the openings
around the base of the range that supplg fresh air
for combustion and ventilation are not obstructed
bg carpeting or woodwork.
Your range, like mang other household items, is
heavg and can settle into soft floor coverings such as
cushioned vingl or carpeting. Use care when moving
the range on this tgpe of flooring. It is recommended
that the following simple and inexpensive instructions
be followed to protect gour floor.
The range should be installed on a sheet of plgwood
(or similar material). When the floor covering ends at the
front of the range, the area that the range will rest on
should be built up with plgwood to the same level or
higher than the floor covering.
This will allow the range to be moved for cleaning
or servicing. Also, make sure gour floor covering will
withstand 180°F.(Seethe Installation Safety Instructions
section.)
Make sure the wall coverings around gour range can
withstand the heat generated (up to 200°F)bg the
range. (Seethe Installation Safety Instructions section.)
IMPORTANT!
Remove all tape and packaging. Make sure the
burners are properlg seated and level.
Take the accessorg pack out of the oven and/or
drawer.
Check to be sure that no range parts have come loose
during shipping.
• Do not use oven for a storage area. Items stored
in the oven can ignite.
• Do not let cooking grease or other flammable
materials accumulate in or near the range.

Installation Instructions
PROVIDE ADEQUATE GAS SUPPLY
Your range is designed to operate at a pressure of 5"
of water column on natural gas or, if designed for LP
gas (propane or butane), 20" of water column.
Hake 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 LPgas, conversion
must be made by a qualified LPinstaller before
attempting to operate the range on that gas.
For proper operation, the pressure of natural gas supplied
to the regulator must be between 5" and 13" of water
column.
For LP gas, the pressure supplied must be between
10" and 13" of water column.
When checking for proper operation of the regulator,
the inlet pressure must be at least r' 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 LPgas 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 be 5 feet in length for ease of installation. In Canada,
flexible connectors must be single wall metal connectors
no longer than 6 feet in length.
CONNECT THE RANGE TO GAS
Shut off the main gas supply valve before
disconnecting the old range and leave it off until
the new hookup has been completed. Don't forget
to relight the pilot on other gas appliances when
gou turn the gas back on.
Because hard piping restricts movement of the range,
the use of a CSA International-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 is made.
To prevent gas leaks, put pipe-joint compound on, or
wrap pipe thread tape with Teflon* around, all male
(external) pipe threads.
A.
Install a manual gas line shut-off valve in the gas line
in an easily accessed location outside of the range.
Hake sure everyone operating the range knows where
and how to shut off the gas supply to the range.
a.
Install male 1/2" flare union adapter to the 1/2" NPT
internal thread at inlet of regulator. Use a backup
wrench on the regulator fitting to avoid damage.
When installing the range from the front, remove
the 90° elbow for easier installation.
C.
Install male 1/2" or 3/4" flare union adapter to the
NPTinternal thread of the manual shut-off valve,
taking care to back up the shut-off valve to keep it
from turning.
D. Connect flexible metal appliance connector to the
adapter on the range. Position range to permit
connection at the shut-off valve.
E.When all connections have been made, make sure
all range controls are in the off position and turn on the
main gas supply valve. Use a liquid leak detector at all
joints and connections to check for leaks in the system.
WARNING: DONOTUSEA
FLAME TO CHECK FOR GAS LEAKS.
When using test pressures greater than 1/2 psig to
pressure test the gas supply system of the residence,
disconnect the range and individual shut-off valve from
the gas supply piping. When using test pressures of 1/2
psig or less to test the gas supply system, simply isolate
the range from the gas supply system by closing the
individual shut-off valve.

Electrical Requirements
120-volt, 60 Hertz, properly grounded dedicated circuit
protected by a iS-amp or 20-amp circuit breaker or
time-delay fuse.
Extension Cord Cautions
Because of potential safety hazards associated
with certain conditions, we strongly recommend against
the use of an extension cord. However, if you still elect to
use an extension cord, it is absolutely necessary that it
be a UL-listed, 3-wire grounding-type appliance extension
cord and that the current carrying rating of the cord in
amperes be equivalent to, or greater than, the circuit
rating.
Grounding
IMPORTANT--(Please read carefully)
FORPERSONALSAFETY,THISAPPLIANCEMUSTBE
PROPERLYGROUNDED.
Preferred Method
131ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS (CONT.)
A. Usage Situations Where Appliance Power Cord Will
Be Disconnected Infrequently.
An adapter may be used only on a iS-amp circuit.
Do not use an adapter on a 20-amp circuit. Where
local codes permit, a TEMPORARYCONNECTION
may be made to a properly grounded 2-prong wall
receptacle by the use of a UL-listed adapter, available
at most hardware stores. The larger slot in the adapter
must be aligned with the larger slot in the wall receptacle
to provide proper polarity in the
connection of the power cord.
Temporary Method
(Adopter plugs not permitted in Conodo)
Align large prongs/slots
Ensureproper
ground ond firm
connection before
use
Ensureproper ground
existsbefore use
The power cord of this appliance is equipped with a
3-prong (grounding) plug which mates with a standard
3-prong grounding wall receptacle to minimize the
possibility of electric shock hazard from this appliance.
The customer should have the wall receptacle and
circuit checked by a qualified electrician to make sure
the receptacle is properly grounded.
Where a standard 2-prong wall receptacle is encountered,
it isthe personal responsibility and obligation of the
customer to have it replaced with a properly grounded
3-prong wall receptacle.
DO NOT, UNDERANY CIRCUMSTANCES,CUT ORREMOVE
THE THIRD (GROUND)PRONGFROM THE POWERCORD.
A word about GFCIs- GFCIs are not required or
recommended for gas range receptacles.
Ground Fault Circuit Interrupters (GFCIs)are devices that
sense leakage of current in a circuit and automatically
switch off power when a threshold leakage level is
detected. These devices must be manually reset by the
consumer. The National Electrical Code requires the use of
GFCIsin kitchen receptacles installed to serve countertop
surfaces. Performance of the range will not be affected if
operated on a GFCI-protected circuit but occasional
nuisance tripping of the GFCIbreaker is possible.
CAUTION: Attaching the adapter
ground terminal to the wall receptacle cover
screw does not ground the appliance unless
the cover screw is metal, and not insulated,
and the wall receptacle is grounded through
the house wiring. The customer should have
the circuit checked by a qualified electrician to
make sure the receptacle is properly grounded.
When disconnecting the power cord from the adapter,
always hold the adapter with one hand. If this is not done,
the adapter ground terminal is very likely to break with
repeated use. Should this happen, DO NOT USE the
appliance until a proper ground has again been
established.

Page 48

Installation Instructions
[] ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS (CONT.)
B. Usage Situations Where Appliance Power Cord Will
Be Disconnected Frequently.
Do not use an adapter plug in these situations because
disconnecting of the power cord places undue strain on
the adapter and leads to eventual failure of the adapter
ground terminal. The customer should have the 2-prong
wall receptacle replaced with a 3-prong (grounding)
receptacle by a qualified electrician before using the
appliance.
The installation of appliances designed for mobile home
installation must conform with the Manufactured Home
Construction and Safety Standard, Title 24 CFR,Part 3280
(formerlg the Federal Standard for Mobile Home
Construction and Safety, Title 24, HUD,Part 280) or,
when such standard is not applicable, the Standard
for Manufactured Home Installations, latest edition
(Manufactured Home Sites,Communities and Set-Ups),
ANSIA225.1, latest edition, or with local codes. In Canada,
mobile home installation must be in accordance with
the current CAN/CSAZ240/MH Mobile Home
