STATE OF CALIFORNIA PROPOSITION 65 WARNING
The California Safe Drinking 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.
WARNING This product contains one or more chemical known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm.
Self-clean ovens can cause low-level exposure to some of these substances, including carbon monoxide, during the cleaning cycle. Exposure can be minimized by venting with an open window or using a ventilation fan or hood.

How to Remove Protective Shipping Film and Packaging Tape
Carefully grasp a corner of the protective shipping film with your fingers and slowly peel it from the appliance surface. Do not use any sharp items to remove the film. Remove all of the film before using the appliance for the first time.
To assure no damage is done to the finish of the product, the safest way to remove the adhesive from
packaging tape on new appliances is an application of a household liquid dishwashing detergent. Apply with a soft cloth and allow to soak.
NOTE: 7KH DGKHVLYH PXVW EH UHPRYHG IURP DOO SDUWV ,W cannot be removed if it is baked on.
How to Light a Surface Burner
WARNING Burners should be operated only when covered by cookware. Burner flames not covered by cookware present a risk of fire or clothing ignition. Never let flames extend beyond the sides of the cookware. Failure to comply may result in serious injury.
Make sure all burners are in their correct locations and fully assembled before attempting to operate any burner.

Ŷ %H VXUH WKH EXUQHUV DQG JUDWHV DUH FRRO EHIRUH \RX place your hand, a pot holder or cleaning materials on them.
Use of the Surface Burners
Your gas rangetop has sealed gas burners. They offer convenience, cleanability and flexibility for a wide range of cooking applications.
The smallest burner is the simmer burner. On some models, the center burner of the triple flame burner provides an additional simmer burner. A simmer burner turned down to LO provides precise cooking
performance for foods such as delicate sauces that require low heat for a long cooking time.
The extra-large burner is designed to quickly bring large amounts of liquid to a boil. Some models have a POWER BOIL™ setting especially designed for use with cookware with a diameter of 11 inches or larger.
How to Select Flame Size
Watch the flame, not the knob, as you adjust heat. When rapid heating is desired, the flame size on a burner should match the size of the cookware you are using.
Flames larger than the bottom of the cookware will not
heat faster and may be hazardous.
These flames are too large for the pot

WARNING Fire Hazard
ŶThe PREHEAT setting (on some models) is provided to quickly heat your griddle. Turn heat down before placing food on the griddle. Cooking at the PREHEAT setting may result in fire.
ŶUse care when cooking greasy foods. Spilled grease may result in fire.
ŶNever place any items on the griddle when it is not in use. Heat from surrounding burners can heat the griddle and may result in fire.
Ŷ Place and remove the griddle only when griddle is cool and all surface burners are turned OFF.
Your griddle provides an extra-large cooking surface for meats, pancakes and other foods usually prepared in
a skillet. Before first use, rinse with hot water and dry thoroughly. Prepare the surface with cooking spray or vegetable oil.
NOTE: Do not place the griddle in a microwave oven.
NOTE: Do not clean the griddle in the self-cleaning oven. Doing so will remove the seasoned finish. For instructions on how to clean the griddle, see Care and Cleaning section.
Placement of the Nonstick Griddle on the Cooktop

Cookware Guidelines
The material, finish, and size of cookware affect baking performance.
Dark, coated and dull pans absorb heat more readily than light, shiny pans. Pans that absorb heat more readily can result in a browner, crisper, and thicker crust.

WKDQ PLQLPXP FRRN WLPH ,I XQGHVLUDEOH UHVXOWV DUH obtained with this type of cookware consider reducing oven temperature by 25° F next time.
Shiny pans can produce more evenly cooked baked goods such as cakes and cookies.
Glass and ceramic pans heat slowly but retain heat well. These types of pans work well for dishes such as pies and custards.
Air insulated pans heat slowly and can reduce bottom browning.
Keep cookware clean to promote even heating.

Cooking Modes
Your new oven has a variety of cooking modes to help you get the best results. These modes are described below. Refer to the Cooking Guide section for recommendations for specific foods. Remember, your new oven may perform differently than the oven it is replacing.
Bake
The bake mode is for baking and roasting. This mode uses heat primarily from the lower burner but also from the upper burner to cook food. When preparing baked goods such as cakes, cookies, and pastries always preheat the oven first. Follow recipe recommendations
IRU IRRG SODFHPHQW ,I QR JXLGHOLQHV DUH SURYLGHG FHQWHU food in the oven. To use this mode press the Bake pad, enter a temperature, and then press Start.
Warm
Warm mode is designed to keep hot foods hot for up to 3 hours. To use this mode, press the Warm pad then press Start. Cover foods that need to remain moist and do not cover foods that should be crisp. Preheating is not required. Do not use warm to heat cold food other
WKDQ FULVSLQJ FUDFNHUV FKLSV RU GU\ FHUHDO ,W LV DOVR recommended that food not be kept warm for more than 2 hours.
Broiling Modes
Broil is only available in the upper oven. Always broil with the door closed. Monitor food closely while broiling. Use caution when broiling on upper rack positions as placing food closer to the broil burner increases smoking, spattering, and the possibility of fats igniting. Broiling on rack position 5 is not recommended.
Try broiling foods that you would normally grill. Adjust rack positions to adjust the intensity of the heat to the food. Place foods closer to the broil burner when a seared surface and rare interior is desired. Thicker foods and foods that need to be cooked through should be broiled on a rack position farther from the burner.
Convection Bake
The Convection Bake mode is intended for baking on a single rack. This mode may use heat from the upper and lower burners, along with air movement from the convection fan to enhance cooking evenness. Your oven is equipped with Auto Recipe Conversion, so it is not necessary to convert the temperature when using this mode. To use this mode press the Bake pad under
Convection, enter a temperature, and then press Start. Always preheat when using this mode.
Convection Roast
The Convection Roast mode is intended for roasting whole cuts of meat on a single rack. This mode may use heat from the upper and lower bake burner along with air movement to improve browning and reduce cooking

Do not try to bend knobs by pulling them up or down or by hanging a towel or other such loads. This can damage the gas valve shaft.
The control knobs may be removed for easier cleaning.
With knobs in the OFF position pull them straight off the stems.
The knobs can be washed by hand with soap and water or in a dishwasher.
Not all knobs are interchangeable. To determine the correct location of a particular knob, examine the back of the knob. A knob with a label or two stem holes should be replaced on the front panel first by matching the shape of the knob holes to the shape of the control panel stems. The remainder of the knobs having no labels and only one stem hole can then be replaced on the front panel anywhere there is a single stem.
