an extension cord with this appliance.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE

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 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
LP fuels. 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.

■ 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: These adjustments 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, 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
range—children 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 oven or warming 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.

■ Large scratches or impacts to glass doors

can lead to broken or shattered glass.

SURFACE BURNERS

Use proper pan size—avoid pans that are unstable or easily tipped. Select cookware having flat bottoms
large enough to cover burner grates. To avoid 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.

■ Be sure to wipe off excess spillage before

self-cleaning operation.

■ Before self-cleaning the oven, remove the

broiler pan, broiler grid, all cookware and
any aluminum foil.

■ Oven shelves should be removed from the

oven before beginning the self-clean cycle.

■ Clean only parts listed in this Owner’s

Manual.

■ Do not clean the door gasket. The door

gasket is essential for a good seal. Care
should be taken not to rub, damage or
move the gasket.

■ If the self-cleaning mode malfunctions,

turn the oven off and disconnect the power
supply. Have it serviced by a qualified
technician.

■ Do not use oven cleaners. No commercial

oven cleaner or oven liner of any kind
should be used in or around any part of
the oven. Residue from oven cleaners will
damage the inside of the oven when the
self-clean cycle is used.

SELF-CLEANING THE OVEN

COOK MEAT AND POULTRY THOROUGHLY…

Cook meat and poultry thoroughly—meat to at least an INTERNAL temperature of 160°F and poultry to
at least an INTERNAL temperature of 180°F. Cooking to these temperatures usually protects against
foodborne illness.

■ The purpose of the warming drawer

is to hold hot cooked foods at serving
temperature. Always start with hot food;
cold food cannot be heated or cooked in
the warming drawer.

■ Do not use the drawer to dry newspapers.

If overheated, they can catch on fire.

■ Do not leave paper products, plastics,

canned food, or combustible materials in
the drawer.

■ Never leave jars or cans of fat drippings in

or near your drawer.

■ Do not warm food in the drawer for more

than two hours.

■ Do not touch the heating element or the

interior surface of the drawer. These
surfaces may be hot enough to burn.

REMEMBER: The inside surface of the
drawer may be hot when the drawer
is opened.

■ Use care when opening the drawer. Open

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

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.

■ Do not use the oven for a storage area.

Items stored in the oven can ignite.

■ Keep the oven free from grease buildup.

■ Place the oven shelves in the desired

position while the oven is cool.

■ Pulling out the shelf 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 is not designed to slide.

■ Do not heat unopened food containers.

Pressure could build up and the container
could burst, causing an injury.

■ 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 the 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 is too close to the

flame, the fat may ignite. Trim excess fat to
prevent excessive flare-ups.

■ Make sure the broiler pan is in place

correctly to reduce the possibility of
grease fires.

■ If you should have a grease fire in the broiler

pan, touch the CLEAR/OFF pad, and keep
the oven door closed to contain fire until
it burns out.

■ For safety and proper cooking performance,

always bake and broil with the oven door
closed.

■ The unit should not be operated in any

mode with the bake element removed.

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.

OVEN

WARNING:

NEVER cover any

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.

How to Light a Gas Surface Burner

Make sure all the surface burners are
placed in their respective positions.

Push the control knob in and turn it to
the LITE position.

You will hear a little clicking noise—
the sound of the electric spark igniting
the burner.

Turn the knob to adjust the flame size.
If the knob stays at LITE, it will continue
to click.

When one burner is turned to LITE, all
the burners spark. Do not attempt to
disassemble or clean around any burner
while another burner is on. An electric
shock may result, which could cause you
to knock over hot cookware.

9

In Case of Power Failure

In case of a power failure, you can light the
gas surface burners on your range with a
match. Hold a lit match to the burner, then
push in and turn the control knob to the
LITE position. Use extreme caution when
lighting burners this way.

Surface burners in use when an electrical
power failure occurs will continue to
operate normally.

Wok This Way

We recommend that you use a 14-inch or smaller
flat-bottomed wok. Make sure the wok bottom sits
flat on the grate. They are available at your local
retail store.

Only a flat-bottomed wok should be used.

Do not use a wok support ring. Placing the
ring over the burner or grate may cause the
burner to work improperly, resulting in
carbon monoxide levels above allowable
standards. This could be dangerous to
your health.

Use a flat-bottomed wok.

Stove Top Grills

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
incomplete combustion and can result
in exposure to carbon monoxide levels
above allowable current standards.

This can be hazardous to your health.

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 tight­fitting 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.

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.

10

Most griddled foods require cooking
on a preheated surface. Preheat griddle
according to the guide below, then switch
to the desired cook setting.

IMPORTANT NOTES:

■ Avoid cooking extremely greasy foods and be

careful of grease spill-over while cooking.

■ Do not use oil on the griddle for extended lengths

of time. Permanent staining and/or craze lines on
the surface could result.

■ Never place or store any items on the griddle,

even when it is not in use. The griddle can
become heated when using the surrounding
burners.

■ Do not overheat the griddle. Leaving the

griddle burner on at HI for an extended amount
of time without food can damage the non-stick
coating

.

■ Avoid using metal utensils with sharp points pr

rough sharp edges which might damage the
griddle surface.

■ Do not cut foods on the griddle.

Using the oven.

To avoid possible burns, place the shelves in the desired position before you turn the oven on.

Before you begin…

The shelves have stop-locks, so that when
placed correctly on the shelf supports (A
through E), they will stop before coming
completely out, and will not tilt.

When placing and removing cookware,
pull the shelf out to the bump on the shelf
support.

To remove a shelf, pull it toward you, tilt the
front end up and pull it out.

To replace, place the end of the shelf (stop­locks) on the support, tilt up the front and
push the shelf in.

NOTE: The shelf is not designed to slide out at the
special low shelf (R) position.

The oven has 5 shelf positions.
It also has a special low shelf

position (R) for extra large items,
such as a large turkey.

Power Outage

CAUTION: Do not make any attempt to operate the

electric ignition oven during an electrical power
failure.

The oven or broiler cannot be lit during a
power failure. Gas will not flow unless the
glow bar is hot.

If the oven is in use when a power failure
occurs, the oven burner shuts off and
cannot be re-lit until power is restored. This
is because the flow of gas is automatically
stopped and will not resume when power is
restored until the glow bar has reached
operating temperature.

Oven Light

Touch the OVEN LIGHT pad on the control
panel to turn the light on or off.

Oven Vent

Your oven is vented through ducts at the
rear of the range. Do not block these ducts
when cooking in the oven—it is important
that the flow of hot air from the oven and
fresh air to the oven burner be
uninterrupted. Avoid touching the vent
openings or nearby surfaces during oven or
broiler operation—they may become hot.

■ Handles of pots and pans on the cooktop may

become hot if left too close to the vent.

■ Do not leave plastic or flammable items on the

cooktop—they may melt or ignite if left too close
to the vent.

■ Do not leave closed containers on the cooktop.

The pressure in closed containers may increase,
which may cause them to burst.

■ Metal items will become very hot if they are left

on the cooktop, and could cause burns.

Plastic items on the cooktop may
melt if left too close to the vent.

Vent appearance and location vary.

Preheating and Pan Placement

Preheat the oven if the recipe calls for it.
To preheat, set the oven at the correct
temperature. Preheating is necessary
for good results when baking cakes,
cookies, pastry and breads.

For ovens without a preheat indicator light or tone,
preheat 10 minutes.

Baking results will be better if baking pans
are centered in the oven as much as
possible. Pans should not touch each other
or the walls of the oven. If you need to use
two shelves, stagger the pans so one is not
directly above the other, and leave
approximately 11⁄2″ between pans, from
the front, back and sides of the wall.

Aluminum Foil

Never cover the oven bottom with
aluminum foil.

You can use aluminum foil to line the
broiler pan and broiler grid. However, you
must mold the foil tightly to the grid and
cut slits in it just like the grid.

Aluminum foil may also be used to catch a
spillover. To do so, place a small sheet of foil
on a lower shelf several inches below the
food.

Never entirely cover a shelf with aluminum
foil. This will disturb the heat circulation
and result in poor baking.

How to Set the Oven for Broiling

Place the meat or fish on the broiler
grid in the broiler pan.

Follow suggested shelf positions in the

Broiling Guide.

The oven door must be closed during
broiling.

Touch the BROIL HI/LO pad once for

HI Broil.

To change to LO Broil, touch the BROIL
HI/LO pad again.

Touch the START pad.

Broil Preheat – After touching START,

the display will show preheat for
approximately 10 minutes. The gas
bake element will cycle on during
preheat. Place your food in the oven
after the preheat cycle has completed.

When broiling is finished, touch the
CLEAR/OFF pad.

Serve the food immediately, and leave the
pan outside the oven to cool during the
meal for easiest cleaning.

Use LO Broil to cook foods such as poultry
or thick cuts of meat thoroughly without
over-browning them.

Always use the broiler pan and grid
that came with your oven. It is
designed to minimize smoking and
spattering by trapping juices in the
shielded lower part of the pan.

The size, weight, thickness,
starting temperature and
your preference of
doneness will affect
broiling times. This guide
is based on meats at
refrigerator temperature.

says “Rare beef is popular, but you
should know that cooking it to only
140°F. means some food poisoning
organisms may survive.” (Source:

The oven has 5 shelf positions.

To Set the Clock

The clock must be set to the correct time of
day for the automatic oven timing functions
to work properly. The time of day cannot
be changed during a timed baking or
self-cleaning cycle.

Touch and hold the TIMER/CLOCK pad
until the display changes.

Touch the number pads.

Touch the number pads the same way you
read them. For example, to set 12:34, touch
the number pads 1, 2, 3 and 4 in that order.

If number pads are not touched within one
minute after you touch the CLOCK pad, the
display reverts to the original setting. If this
happens, touch the CLOCK pad and reenter
the time of day.

Touch the START pad until the time of
day shows in the display. This enters
the time and starts the clock.

To check the time of day when the display is
showing other information:
Touch and hold the TIMER/CLOCK pad until the
time of day is displayed. The time of day shows
until another pad is touched.

To Set the Timer

The timer does not control oven operations.
The maximum setting on the timer is 9 hours
and 59 minutes.

Touch the TIMER/CLOCK pad.
Touch the number pads until the

amount of time you want shows in the
display. The maximum time that can
be entered in minutes is 59. Times
more than 59 minutes should be
changed to hours and minutes. For
example, to enter 90 minutes as 1
hour 30 minutes, touch 1, 3 and 0 in
that order.

If you make a mistake, touch the TIMER/CLOCK
pad and begin again.

Touch the START pad. After pressing
the START pad, SET disappears; this
tells you the time is counting down,
although the display does not change
until one minute has passed.

When the timer reaches :00, the
control will beep 3 times followed
by one beep every 6 seconds until
the TIMER/CLOCK pad is touched.

The 6 second tone can be canceled by following
the steps in the Special features of your oven

You may find that your new oven cooks differently than the one it replaced. Use your new oven for a few weeks to
become more familiar with it. If you still think your new oven is too hot or too cold, you can adjust the thermostat yourself.

Do not use thermometers, such as those found in grocery stores, to check the temperature setting of your oven.
These thermometers may vary 20–40 degrees.

NOTE: This adjustment will not affect the broiling or the self-cleaning temperatures. The adjustment will be retained
in memory after a power failure.

To Adjust the Thermostat

Touch the BAKE and BROIL HI/LO pads
at the same time for 3 seconds until
the display shows SF.

Touch the BAKE pad. A two digit
number shows in the display.

Touch BAKE once to decrease (-)
the oven temperature, or twice to
increase (+).

The oven temperature can be adjusted
up as much as 35°F. or down as much
as 35°F. Touch the number pads the
same way you read them. For example,
to change the oven temperature 15°F,
touch 1 and 5.

When you have made the adjustment,
touch the START pad to go back to the
time of day display. Use your oven as
you would normally.

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.

Federal standards require products labeled “margarine” to contain at least 80% fat by weight. Low fat spreads, on the
other hand, contain less fat and more water. The high moisture content of these spreads affects the texture and flavor
of baked goods. For best results with your old favorite recipes, use margarine, butter or stick spreads containing at least
70% vegetable oil.

Adjust the oven thermostat—Do it yourself!

The type of margarine will affect baking performance!

The oven door must be closed and all controls set correctly for the cycle to work properly.

Before a Clean Cycle

For the first self-clean cycle, we recommend
venting your kitchen with an open window
or using a ventilation fan or hood.

Remove the broiler pan, broiler grid, all
cookware and any aluminum foil from the
oven—they cannot withstand the high
cleaning temperatures.

NOTE:

■ If your oven is equipped with oven

shelves, remove them before you begin
the self-clean cycle.

Soil on the front frame of the range and
outside the gasket on the door will need to
be cleaned by hand. Clean these areas with
hot water, soap-filled scouring pads or
cleansers such as Soft Scrub®. Rinse well
with clean water and dry.

Do not clean the gasket. The fiberglass
material of the oven door gasket cannot
withstand abrasion. It is essential for the
gasket to remain intact. If you notice it
becoming worn or frayed, replace it.

Wipe up any heavy spillovers on the oven
bottom.

Make sure the oven light bulb cover is in
place and the oven light is off.

IMPORTANT: The health of some birds
is extremely sensitive to the fumes given
off during the self-cleaning cycle of any
range. Move birds to another well
ventilated room.

NOTE: Use caution when opening the oven
after the self-clean cycle has ended. The oven
may still be hot.

CAUTION: The unit should not be operated in any
mode with the bake element removed.

Wipe up heavy soil on the oven
bottom.

How to Set the Oven for Cleaning

will show the start time. It will not be
possible to open the oven door until
the temperature drops below the lock
temperature and the LOCKED DOOR
light goes off.

When the LOCKED DOOR light is off, open
the door.

After a Clean Cycle

You may notice some white ash in the oven.
Wipe it up with a damp cloth after the
oven cools.

If white spots remain, remove them with a
soap-filled scouring pad and rinse thoroughly
with a vinegar and water mixture.

These deposits are usually a salt residue
that cannot be removed by the clean cycle.

If the oven is not clean after one clean
cycle, repeat the cycle.

■ You cannot set the oven for cooking until

the oven is cool enough for the door to
unlock.

■ While the oven is self-cleaning, you

can touch the CLOCK pad to display
the time of day. To return to the clean
countdown, touch the COOKING TIME

burner only.

■ Do not clean the griddle in a dishwasher.

■ Wash with hot, soapy water after each use while

using a sponge or dishcloth.

■ If oil or food residue is left on the griddle,

further cooking will harden the residue and cause
sticking over time. In this case, use a non-abrasive
cleanser such as Bon Ami

®

or one of the soft

scrub cleansers. Apply with a sponge, Scrunge

®

or other cleaning pad labeled safe for non­stick pans

■ Use only plastic, nylon or wooden utensils or

of the coating.

■ Never use knives or cut food on the griddle.

Wash with hot, soapy water after each use.
Store carefully to prevent scratching.

Griddle Precautions:

■ If something has spilled under the griddle, it

should be cleaned up as soon as possible to
prevent “baked on” food soil.

■ Do not allow grease to accumulate under the

griddle as it can be a fire hazard. Clean under the
griddle as soon as it is cool. Clean with hot soapy
water.

■ Do not place your griddle in the microwave.

■ Always turn off all surface burners before

removing the griddle. Use caution when handling

may scour with a plastic scouring pad to
remove burned-on food particles.

Burner Heads and Oval (Center) Burner
Head/Cap Assembly

The burner heads and the oval burner head/cap
assembly are removable. Simply lift them off the
range for cleaning.

For proper ignition, make sure the
small hole in the section that fits over the
electrode is kept open. A sewing needle
or wire twist-tie works well to unclog it.

The slits in the burner heads must be kept clean
at all times for an even, unhampered flame.

Clogged or dirty burner ports or
electrodes will not allow the burner to
operate properly.

Any spill on or around an electrode must
be carefully cleaned. Take care to not hit an
electrode with anything hard or it could be
damaged.

Clean the burner heads routinely, especially
after bad spillovers, which could clog the
openings. Lift off when cool.

To remove burned-on food, soak the
burner heads in a solution of mild liquid
detergent and hot water for 20–30 minutes.
For more stubborn stains, use a toothbrush.

After cleaning

Before putting the burner caps, heads and
oval head/cap assembly back, shake out
excess water and then dry them thoroughly
by setting in a warm oven for 30 minutes.

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, fruit juices, etc.) or foods with
high sugar content could cause a dull spot
if allowed to set.

When the surface has cooled, wash and
rinse. For other spills such as fat spatterings,
etc., wash with soap and water once the
surface has cooled. Then rinse and polish
with a dry cloth.

NOTE: Do not lift the cooktop. Lifting the cooktop
can lead to damage and improper operation of the
range.

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 vicinity
of this or any other appliance.

Oven Air Vents

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.

Control Panel

On models so equipped, lock out the touch
pads before cleaning.

See the Control Lockout information in the
Special features of your oven control section

in this manual.
Clean up splatters with a damp cloth.

You may also use a glass cleaner.
Remove heavier soil with warm soapy water.

Do not use abrasives of any kind.

Unlock the touch pads after cleaning.

Vent appearance and location vary.

Lower Control Panel (Front Manifold Panel) and Knobs

It’s a good idea to wipe the control panel
after each use of the oven. Use a damp
cloth to clean or rinse. For cleaning, use
mild soap and water or a 50/50 solution of
vinegar and water. For rinsing, use clean
water. Polish dry with a soft cloth.

Do not use abrasive cleansers, strong liquid
cleaners, plastic scouring pads or oven
cleaners on the control panel—they will
damage the finish.

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.

Make sure the knobs are in the OFF
positions and pull them straight off the
stems for cleaning.

The knobs can be cleaned in a dishwasher
or they may also be washed with soap and
water. Make sure the insides of the knobs
are dry before replacing.

Replace the knobs in the OFF position
to ensure proper placement.

Metal parts can be cleaned with soap and
water. Do not use steel wool, abrasives,
ammonia, acids or commercial oven
cleaners. Dry with a soft cloth.

Lift-Off Oven Door

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 the hinges snap back against the
oven frame, pull them back out.

To clean the inside of the door:

■ Do not allow excess water to run into

any holes or slots in the door.

■ Because the area inside the gasket is

cleaned during the self clean cycle, you
do not need to clean this by hand. Any
soap left on the liner causes additional
stains when the oven is heated.

■ The area outside the gasket can be

cleaned with a soap-filled plastic
scouring pad.

To clean the outside of the door:

■ Use soap and water to thoroughly clean

the top, sides and front of the oven door.
Rinse well. You may also use a glass
cleaner to clean the glass on the outside
of the door.

■ Spillage of marinades, fruit juices, tomato

sauces and basting materials containing
acids may cause discoloration and should
be wiped up immediately. When the
surface is cool, clean and rinse.

■ Do not use oven cleaners, cleansing

powders or harsh abrasives on the
outside of the door.

Broiler Pan and Grid

After broiling, remove the broiler pan from
the oven. Remove the grid from the pan.
Carefully pour out grease from the pan into
a proper container. Wash and rinse the
broiler pan and grid in hot water with a
soap-filled or plastic scouring pad.

If food has burned on, sprinkle the grid
with detergent while hot and cover with wet
paper towels or a dishcloth. Soaking the
pan will remove burned-on foods.

The broiler pan and grid may be cleaned
with a commercial oven cleaner.

Both the broiler pan and grid can also be
cleaned in a dishwasher.

Do not store a soiled broiler pan and grid
anywhere in the range.

CAUTION: Do not clean the broiler pan or grid in
a self-cleaning oven.

Lift the door straight up and off the
hinges.

The gasket is designed with a gap
at the bottom to allow for proper air
circulation.

Do not rub or clean the door
gasket—it has an extremely low
resistance to abrasion.

If you notice the gasket becoming
worn, frayed or damaged in any
way or if it has become displaced
on the door, you should have it
replaced.

Grid

Pan

Oven Bottom

The oven bottom has a porcelain enamel
finish. 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. This is
particularly important when baking a fruit
pie or other foods with a high acid content.
Hot fruit fillings or other foods that are
highly acidic (such as tomatoes, sauerkraut
and sauces with vinegar or lemon juice)
may cause pitting and damage to the
porcelain enamel surface and should be
wiped up immediately.

We don’t recommend using aluminum foil
on the oven bottom. It can affect air flow if
the holes are blocked and it can concentrate
heat at the bottom of the oven, resulting in
poor baking performance.

To clean up spillovers, use soap and water,
an abrasive cleaner or soap-filled scouring
pad. Rinse well to remove any soap before
self-cleaning.

Oven Shelves and Drawer Racks

If your oven is equipped with nickel oven
shelves, they should be removed from the
oven before beginning the self-clean cycle.

To clean the nickel shelves, use an abrasive
cleanser. After cleaning, rinse the shelves
with clean water and dry with a clean cloth.
If the shelves ever become hard to slide,
wipe the shelf edges or oven shelf supports
with vegetable oil.

Oven Light Replacement

CAUTION: Before replacing your oven light bulb,

disconnect the electrical power to the range at the
main fuse or circuit breaker panel. Be sure to let the
light cover and bulb cool completely.

The oven light bulb is covered with a
removable glass cover that is held in place
with a bail-shaped wire. Remove the oven
door, if desired, to reach cover easily.

To remove:

Hold a hand under the cover so it
doesn’t fall when released. With
fingers of the same hand, firmly push
back the wire cover holder. Lift off
the cover.

Do not remove any screws to remove
the cover.

Do not touch hot bulb with a wet
cloth. Replace bulb with a 40-watt
household appliance bulb.

To replace cover:

Place it into the groove of the light
receptacle. Pull the wire forward to the
center of the cover until it snaps into
place. When in place, the wire holds
the cover firmly. Be certain the wire
is in the depression in the center of
the cover.

Connect electrical power to the range.

Oven Heating Elements

CAUTION: The unit should not be operated in any

mode with the bake element removed.

Do not clean the bake element or the broil element.
Any soil will burn off when the elements are heated.

Only remove the oven heating element
to clean up large spills. Clean around the
elements when cleaning up small spills.

To clean the oven floor, remove the two
screws securing the bake element to the
back of the oven and remove the element.
Clean the oven floor with warm soapy water.

WARNING!

ANTI-TIP DEVICE

All ranges can tip and injury could
result.

To prevent accidental tipping of the range,
attach an approved Anti-Tip device to the
wall. (See Installing the Anti-Tip Device in
this section.) To check if the device is
installed and engaged properly, carefully
tip the range forward. The Anti-Tip device
should engage and prevent the range from
tipping over.

If you pull the range out from the wall for
any reason, make sure the Anti-Tip device
is engaged when you push the range back
against the wall.

■ For your safety, never use your range for warming
or heating the room. Your oven and cooktop are
not designed to heat your kitchen. Top burners
should not be operated without cookware on the
grate. Such abuse could result in fire and damage
to your range and will void your warranty.

■ Do not store or use combustible materials,
gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids
in the vicinity of this or any other appliance.
Explosions or fires could result.

■ 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.

LOCATION

Do not locate the range where it may be subject to
strong drafts. Any openings in the floor or wall 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 by
carpeting or woodwork.

Your range, like many other household items, is
heavy and can settle into soft floor coverings such as
cushioned vinyl or carpeting. Use care when 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). When the floor 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 moved for cleaning
or servicing. Also, make sure your floor covering will
withstand 180°F. (See the Installation Safety Instructions
section.)

Make sure the wall coverings around your range can
withstand the heat generated (up to 200°F) by the
range. (See the Installation Safety Instructions section.)

IMPORTANT!

Remove all tape and packaging. Make sure the
burners are properly seated and level.

Take the accessory pack out of the oven and/or
drawer.

Check to be sure that no range parts have come loose
during shipping.

Installation Instructions

PROVIDE ADEQUATE GAS
SUPPLY

1

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), 10 ″ 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 LP gas,
conversion must be made by a qualified LP installer
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 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 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

2

Shut off the main gas supply valve before disconnecting
the old range and leave it off until the new hook-up has
been completed. Don’t forget 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 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.
Make sure everyone operating the range knows
where and how to shut off the gas supply to the
range.

B. 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

NPT internal 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.

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 CONNECTIONS

Electrical Requirements

You must use a 120-volt, 60 Hertz, properly grounded
dedicated circuit protected by a 15-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)

FOR PERSONAL SAFETY, THIS APPLIANCE MUST
BE PROPERLY GROUNDED.

The power cord of this appliance is equipped with a
three-prong (grounding) plug which mates with a
standard three-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 two-prong wall receptacle is
encountered, it is the personal responsibility and
obligation of the customer to have it replaced with a
properly grounded three-prong wall receptacle.

DO NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES,
CUT OR REMOVE THE THIRD (GROUND) PRONG
FROM THE POWER CORD.

A word about GFCI’s – GFCI’s are not required or
recommended for gas range receptacles.

Ground Fault Circuit Interrupters (GFCI’s) 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 GFCI’s in kitchen receptacles
installed to serve countertop surfaces. Performance of
the range will not be affected if operated on a GFCI­protected circuit but occasional nuisance tripping of
the GFCI breaker is possible.

Preferred Method

Ensure proper ground
exists before use

ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS (CONT.)

3

A. Usage Situations where Appliance Power Cord will

be Disconnected Infrequently.

An adapter may be used only on a 15-amp circuit.
Do not use an adapter on a 20-amp circuit. Where
local codes permit, a TEMPORARY CONNECTION
may be made to a properly grounded two-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.

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.

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.

Temporary Method

Ensure proper
ground and firm
connection before
use

(Adapter plugs not permitted in Canada)

Align large prongs/slots

3

Installation Instructions

ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS (CONT.)

3

B. Usage Situations where Appliance Power Cord will

be Disconnected Frequently.

Do not use an adapter plug in these situations because
disconnecting the power cord places undue strain on
the adapter and leads to eventual failure of the adapter
ground terminal. The customer should have the two­prong wall receptacle replaced with a three-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 (formerly 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), ANSI A225.1, latest edition, or with local
codes. In Canada, mobile home installation must be
in accordance with the current CAN/CSA Z240/MH
Mobile Home Installation Code.

Electric Disconnect

■ Locate disconnect plug on the range back.

■ Pinch sides of connector and pull out of range back.

CHECK IGNITION OF SURFACE
BURNERS

6

Operation of all cooktop and oven burners should be
checked after the range and gas supply lines have been
carefully checked for leaks.

Electric Ignition Models

Select a top burner knob and simultaneously push
in and turn to LITE position. You will hear a clicking
sound indicating proper operation of the spark
module. Once the air has been purged from the
supply lines, burners should light within 4 seconds.
After burner lights, rotate knob out of the LITE
position. Try each burner in succession until all
burners have been checked.

Quality of Flames

The combustion quality of burner flames needs to be
determined visually.

If burner flames look like (A), call for service. Normal
burner flames should look like (B) or (C), depending
on the type of gas you use.

With LP gas, some yellow tipping on outer cones
is normal.

(C) Soft blue
flames—Normal for

natural gas

(B) Yellow tips on

The oven is designed to operate quietly and automatically.
To operate the oven, touch the BAKE pad and then touch
the number pads until 350° appears in the display. Touch the
START pad. After 30–90 seconds, the oven burner will ignite
and burn until the set temperature is reached.

Electric ignition models require electrical power to operate.
In case of a power outage, the oven burners on these models
cannot be lit manually with a match. Gas will not flow unless
the glow bar is hot.

If the oven is in use when a power outage occurs, the burner
will shut off and cannot be re-lit until power is restored.

ADJUSTMENT SHUTTER IF
NECESSARY

8

Air adjustment shutter for the bottom burner regulates
the flow of air to the flames.

The shutter for the bottom (oven) burner is near the
back wall behind the warming drawer. Remove the
drawer. See the Care and cleaning of the range section.

To adjust the flow of air to the burner, loosen the
Phillips head screw and rotate the shutter toward open
or closed position as needed.

To determine if the bottom burner flames are burning
properly, remove the oven bottom. Flames should have
approximately 1″ blue cones and, if range is supplied
with natural gas, should burn with no yellow tipping.
(With most LP gas, small yellow tips at the end of outer
cones are normal.) Flames should not lift off burner
ports. If lifting is observed, gradually reduce air shutter
opening until flames are stabilized.

To remove the oven bottom:

A. Remove the two screws securing the bake element

to the back of the oven and remove the element.

B. Remove the screws holding down rear of the

oven bottom.

C. Grasp the oven bottom at finger slots on each side.

D. Lift the rear of the oven bottom enough to clear the

lip of the range frame, push it back, and then pull it
up and out.

INSTALLING THE ANTI-TIP
DEVICE

A. Mark the wall where the RIGHT EDGE of the range

is to be located. Be sure to allow for the countertop
overhang if you intend to install the range next to
cabinets.

B. Locate the outside edge of the device 21⁄8″ toward the

center of the range from the marked edge of the
range.

C. Using the device as a template, mark the position of

the hole for the screw.

D. For wood construction, drill a pilot hole at an angle

of 20 degrees from the horizontal. A nail or awl may

be used if a drill is not available.
Mount the Anti-Tip device with the screw provided.
For cement or concrete construction, you will need

a 1/4″ x 11⁄2″ lag bolt and a 1/2″ O.D. sleeve anchor,
which are not provided. Drill the recommended size
hole for the hardware.

WARNING!

■ Range must be secured with an approved Anti­Tip device.

■ Unless properly installed, the range could be
tipped by you or a child standing, sitting or
leaning on an open door.

■ After installing the Anti-Tip device, verify that it
is in place by carefully attempting to tilt the
range forward.

■ This range has been designed to meet all
recognized industry tip standards for all normal
conditions.

■ The use of this device does not preclude tipping
of the range when not properly installed.

■ If the Anti-Tip device supplied with the range
does not fit this application, use the universal
Anti-Tip device WB2X7909.

This range leaves the factory set for use with natural
gas. If you want to convert to LP gas, the conversion
must be performed by a qualified LP gas installer.

The conversion instructions and LP orifices can be
found attached to the range next to the pressure
regulator.

Keep these instructions and the orifices in case you
want to convert back to natural gas.
