IMPORTANTSAFETYNOtiCE

The California Safe Drinking Water and ToxicEnforcement 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.

Gasappliances 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.

The fiberglass insulation in self-clean ovens gives off a very small amount of carbon monoxide during
the cleaning cycle. Exposure can be minimized by venting with an open window or using a ventilation

fan or hood.

Sealed Gas Burners

When one burner is turned to LITE,all
the burne_ 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 ()vet" hot cookware.

The smaller burner (right rear position)
will give the best simmer results fl)r

delicate fi)ods, Stlch as satlces or fi)ods

which need to cook over low heat tot a
long time. It can be turned down to a ve_'

low setting.

How to Select Flame Size

For safe handling of cookware, never let the flames
extend up the sides of the cookware.

_'m'h the flame, not the knob, as you
reduce heat. The flame size on a gas

burner should match the cookware

VOII aI'e rising.

In Case of Power Failure

In case ot a power tifilure, you can light
the gas surli_ce burne_ on your range

with a match. Hold a lit match to the
burner, then push in and turn the control

knob to the LifEposition. Use extreme
caution when lighting burnexs this way.

The largest burners are higher powered

than the othe_ and will bring liquids to

a boil quicke_:

After Lighting a Gas Burner

Do not operate the burner for an
extended period of time without

cookware on the grate. The finish on
the grate may chip without cookware

to absorb the heat.

Preheating and Pan Placement

Preheat tile oven if tile recipe calls for it.
Preheating is necessary t0r good results

when baking cakes, cookies, pastry and

breads.

Topreheat,set theovenat the correcttemperature.
Thecontrol will beepwhen the oven/s preheated

andthe display w#l show yourset temperature.

Thiswill take approximately15-20 minutes.

Aluminum Foil

Ym can use almninmn fifil m line tile

broiler pan and broiler grid. However;

you must mold tile foil tightly to tile grid

and cut slits in it just like tile grid.

Without tile slits, tile foil will prevent fat
and meat juices fl'om draining into tile

broiler pan. The juices could become
hot enough to catch on fire. If volt

do not cut tile slits, you are essemiallv
fl'_ing, not broiling.

Baking results Mll be better if baking
pans are centered in tile oven as much as

possible. If baking with more than one
pan, place tile pans so each has at least 1"

to 1½" of air space around it.

Donotusealuminumfoil onthebottomof

Never entirely cover a rack with
almninmn fifil. This will disturb tile heat

circulation and result in poor baking.
A smaller sheet of fi)il may be used to

Adjust the oven thermostat--Do it yourself!

Youmay 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.
Donot 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 only affect baking and roasting temperatures; it will not affect broiling, convection or
self-cleaning temperatures. The adjustment will be retained in memory after apower failure.

Thetype ofmargarine will affect bakingperformance!

Most recipes for baking have been developed us&g 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. Thelower the fat

content of a spread product, the more noticeable these differences become.

Federal standards require i)roducts lal)eled "inaigai_ine '' to contain at least 80% lilt by weight, ixmqht sl)reads, Oil the
other hand, contain less tilt and inore watei: Tile high nloismre content of these sl)reads affects the texture and flavor
of baked goods. For best results with u)ur old filvoIite redpes, use inaigai_ine, butter or stick sl)reads containing at least
70% vegetable oil.
