AkWARNING!
SURFACEBURNERS
Use proper pan size-avoid pans that are unstable or eadlytipped. Select cool<ware having flat bottoms large enough to cover burner grates. Toavoid spillovers, mal<esure cool<ware 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 LITE position when igniting
the top burners and make sure the burners
have ignited.
]'_Never leave the surface burners unattended
at high flame settings. Bailovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers that may
catch an fire.
_d_Adjust the top burner flame size so it does
not extend beyond the edge of the caokware. Excessive flame is hazardous.
]'_Use only dry pot holders-maist or damp pot
halders an hot surfaces may result in burns
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.
_d_When using glass cookware, make sure it
isdesigned far top-of-range coaking.
_d_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.
_d_Carefully watch foods being flied at a high
flame setting.
_ Do not flame foods on the cook!op. If you do
flame foods under the hood, turn the fan on.
_ Da 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 may damage
the burner grate and burner head. Also, it may cause the burner ta work improperly. This may
cause a carbon monoxide level above that allowed by current standards, resulting in
a health hazard.
_ Foods for flying should be as dry 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.
S'_Never try to move a pan af hot fat, especially
a deep fat flyen Wait until the fat is cool.
s'_Do nat leave plastic items on the coaktop-
they may melt if left too close to the vent.
_ Keep all plastics away from the surface
burners.
_ 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.
_d_Always heat fat slowly, and watch as it heats. _ Da not leave any items on the cooktop. The
hot air flam the vent may ignite flammable items and will increase pressure in closed
containers, which may cause them to burst.
_ If a combination of oils ar fats will be used
in flying, stir together before heating or
as fats melt slowly.
_ Use a deep fat thermometer whenever
possible ta prevent overheating fat beyond
the smoking point.
_ Use the least passible amount of fat far
effective shallow ar deep-fat frying. Filling the
pan too full of fat can cause spillavers when
food is added.
_ If range is located near a window, do not hang
long curtains that could blow over the surface burners and create a fire hazard.
S'_If you smell gas, turn off the gas to the range
and call a qualified service technician. Never
use an open flame to locate a leak.
_d_Always turn the surface burner controls off
before remaving caokware.
:_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

Aluminum Foil
Donot use aluminum foilon the bottom of the oven.
Do not usealuminum foil to catch spillovers when usingthe CircuWave fan. Thefoil
will be suckedtoward the convection fan.
Never entirelg cover a shelfwith aluminum foil.Thiswilldisturb the heat circulation and
result in poor baking. A smaller sheet of foil mag be used to catch a
spillover bg placing iton a lower shelf several inches below the food.
Baking resultswill be better if baking pans are centered in the oven as much as possible.
Pansshould not touch each other or the walls of the oven. If gou need to use two shelves,
stagger the pans so one is not directlg above the other,and leave approximatelg lY/"

The convection oven fan shuts off when the oven door is opened. DONOTleove the door open for long periods of time while using convection cooking.
In a convection oven, Ofan circulates hot air over, under and
around the food This circulating hot air is evenlg distributed throughout the oven cavity As a result, foods are evenlg cooked and
browned-often in less time thor) with regular heat
NOTE:Tomaximize cooking evenness, the fan is designed to
rotate in both directions with o pause in between Thisis normal
Tohelp gou understand the difference between convection bake and roast and
traditional bake and roast, here are some general guidelines.

Cookware for Convection Cooking
Beforeusing your convection oven,check to see if gour cookware leaves room for air
circulation in the oven. If gou are bakingwith several pans,leave space between them.
Also,besurethe pans do not touch each other or the walls of the oven.
Paper and Plastic
Heabresistant paper and plasticcontainers that are recommended for use in regular
ovens can be used in convection ovens. Plasticcookware that is heat-resistant to
temperatures of 400°F can also be used,
when ovenis below 400°E
Metal and Glass Ang tgpe of cookware will work in your
convection oven. However,metal pans heat the fastest and are recommended for
convection baking. _i:.Darkenedor matte-finished pans will bake
fasterthan shiny pans.
_i:.Glassor ceramicpans cook more slowlg.
When baking cookies,gou will get the best
resultsif gou usea flat cookie sheet instead of a pan with low sides.
Forrecipes likeoven-baked chicken,usea pan with low sides.Hot air cannot circulate
well around food in a pan with high sides.

Thetype of margarine will affect baking performance!
Most recipes for baking have been developed using high fat products such as butter or margarine (80% fat). If you decrease the fat, the recipe may not give the same results as with a higher fat product.
Recipe failure can result if cakes, pies, pastries, cookies or candies are made with low-fat spreads. The lower the fat content of a spread product, the more noticeable these differences become.
Federalstandards require products labeled "margarine" to contain at least80% fat by weight. Low-fat spreads,on the other hand,contain lessfat and more water. The high moisture content ofthese spreads affects the texture and flavor
of baked goods. Forbest results with your old favorite recipes,use margarine, butter or stick spreads containing at least70% vegetable oil.

The oven has 5 shelf positions. Place the grog porcelain-coated racks in positions "R", "B" and "O" for self-cleaning the grates Place one grate each on the oven rocks
from side to side
Yourrangehasthree professional-stgledouble grates.Thesegratesareposition-specific.
Formaximum stability, thesegratesshould only be used in their proper positions.For
convenience,the undersidesof the sidegrates are marked "OUTSIDE."Hakesurethe front
portion of both grates isinfront. The center grate can be interchangedfront to back.
Cleaning Grates--Soap and Water
Lift grates out when cool.Grates should be
washed regularlg and, of course,after
spillovers.Wash them in hot, soapy water and rinsewith clean waten When replacing
the grates, be surethey are positioned securely over the burners. Replacethe grates
sothat straight linesare formed
with the center ribs of all three grates.
Cleaning Grates--Self-Clean Oven
Toget rid of burned-on food, you may use the self-clean cycle of your range. Remove
ang burnt-on food particles that you can prior to placing the grates in the oven.Place
the gray porcelain-coated racks in positions "R","B"and "D".
NOTE:Donot dean the griddle in the
stir-cleaning oven. Placeone grate each on the oven racks
from sideto side.Followthe instructions for how to set the upper oven for cleaning.
NOTE: Use caution when removing the grates from the oven after the self-dean cgde has ended. The grates may sdl be hot.
For heavily-soiled grates, you may notice some white ash on the grate. Wipe it off
with a damp cloth after the grate cools.
If white spots remain, remove them
with a soap-filled scouring pad and rinse
thoroughly with a vinegar and water mixture. Thesedepositsare usually a salt residue that
cannot be removed by the clean cycle.
Cleaning Grates--Dishwasher
Thegrates may be cleanedin the dishwasher. Removeany burnt-on food particles that
you can prior to placing the grates in the dishwasher.Placethem on the lowest rack
of the dishwasher and run on a "heavy duty" cycle.
Do not operate a burner for an extended period of time without cookware on the grate.
Thefinish on the grate may chip without cookware to absorb the heat.
Although the grates are durable, they will gradually lose their shine, regardless of the
best care you can give them. This is due to their continual exposure to high
temperatures and abrasion by the eookware.
Support Bumpers
If one or more of the circular silicone grate support bumpers in the eooktop are missing or damaged, replacement parts can be obtained by calling 1.800.GECARES.
Toinsert the new bumpers,simply insert the cone shaped end and pushdown while gently twisting or rocking the bumpen

STAINLESSSTEELhas a reputation for withstanding tough abusefor gears.Thisisa
keg reason whg it is so popular with the food serviceindustrg.
However,stainlesssteel appliances can have surface imperfections, discolorations or
blemishesthat consumers with a critical ege notice and find unattractive in the home.
Thesediscolorationsor blemishes can be caused bg something as simple as leaving
fingerprint smudges on the stainlesssteel surface overnight.
Forstainlesssteelappliances where blemishesare prone to show on the surface,
we recommend APPLYINGA COATOFCERAHA BRYTE®StainlessSteelCleaning Polish&

Provide Adequate Gas Supplg Your range is designed to operate at a pressure of b " of water column on natural gas or,
if designed for LP gas (propane or butane), 10" of water column.
Hake sure gou are supplging gour range
with the tgpe of gas for which it isdesigned.
Thisrange is convertible for useon natural or propane gas. If gou decide to use this range on
LPgas,conversion must be made bg a qualified LPinstallerbefore 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 15" of water column.
For LPgas,the pressuresupplied must be between
10"and 13" of water column.
When checking for proper operation of the regulator,the inlet pressuremust be at least 1"
greater than the operating (manifold)pressure as given above.
Thepressureregulatorlocatedat the inlet ofthe range manifold must remaininthe supplglineregardlessof
whether naturalor LPgas is beingused.
A flexible metal appliance connector usedto connect the range to the gas supplg line should
have an I.D.of 1/2" and be 5 feet in length for ease of installation. InCanada,flexible connectors must
be single wall metal connectors no longer than 6 feet in length.

[] Connect the Range to the Gas Supply
Shut off the main gas supplg valve before disconnecting the old range and leave it off until the new hookup has been completed. Don't forget to rdight the pilot on other gas
appliances when gou turn the gas back on. Becausehard piping restricts movement of the
range,the use of a CSAInternational-certified flexiblemetalapplianceconnectorisrecommended
unlesslocalcodesrequireahard-pipedconnection. Never usean old connector when installing a
new range. If the hard piping method is used,gou must carefully align the pipe; the range cannot be
moved after the connection is made. Toprevent gas leaks,put pipejoint compound on,
or wrap pipe thread tape with Teflon* around, all male {external}pipe threads.
[] Installa manual gas lineshut-off valve in the
gas line in an easily accessed location outside of the range. Make sureeveryone operating the range knowswhere and how to shut off the gas supply to the range.
[] Install male 1/2" flare union adapter to
the 1/2" NPTinternal thread elbow at inlet of regulator. Usea backup wrench on the
regulator fitting to avoid damage.
When installing the range from the front,
remove the 90°elbow for easierinstallation.
[] Install male 1/2" or 3/4" flare union adapter to
