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.
Haveyour range installedand properly grounded by a qualified installer,in accordance with the Installation Instructions.
Any adjustment and serviceshould be
performed only by qualified gas range installersor servicetechnicians.
Do notattemptto repairorreplaceany partofyourrangeunlessitisspecifically recommended inthismanual.Allotherservice
shouldbe referredtoa qualifiedtechnician.
Plug your range into a 120-volt grounded outlet only. Do not remove the round
grounding prong from the plug. If in doubt about the grounding of the home electrical system, it is your personal responsibility and
obligation to have an ungrounded outlet
replaced with a properly grounded, three-prong outlet in accordance with the National Electrical Code. Do not use
an extension cord with this appliance.
IMPORTANTSAFETYINFORMATION. READALL INSTRUCTIONSBEFOREUSING.
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 isturned on.

UPPEROVEN
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.
Do not usetheoven fora storagearea. Itemsstoredintheoven can ignite.
Keep theovenfreefromgreasebuildup. Placetheoven racksinthedesiredposition
whiletheoven iscool.
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
it burns out. For safety and proper cooking performance,
always bake and broil with the oven door closed.
Never place, use or self-clean the lower oven

When placing and removing cookware,
pull the rack out to the bump on the rack support.
Upper Oven Vent
Your oven is vented through ducts at the rear
of the range. Donot block these ducts when cooking in the oven-it isimportant that the
flow of hot air from the oven and fresh air to the oven burner be uninterrupted. Avoid
touching the vent openings or nearbg
surfaces during oven or broiler operation-
theg mag become hot.
Toremove a rack, pull ittoward gou,tilt the front end up and pullit out.
Toreplace, place the end of the rack (stop-locks)on the support, tilt up the front
and pushthe rack in.
NOTE:The rack is not designed to slide out at the special low rack (R)position.
Handles of pots and pans on the cooktop may become hot ifleft too close to the vent.
Do not leaveplastic or flammable itemson the cooktop-they mag melt or ignite if left
too closeto thevent.
Do not leave closed containers on the cooktop. The pressure in closed containers
mag increase, which mag cause them to burst.
Metal items willbecome verg hot if theg are left on the cooktop, and could cause bums.

Do not usealuminum foil on the bottom o1: the oven.
Neverentirely cover a rack with aluminum
foil.Thiswill disturb the heat circulation and result in poor baking.
Oven Moisture
Asyour oven heats up, the temperature change of the air inthe oven may cause
water droplets to form on the door glass. Thesedropletsare harmlessand will
evaporate asthe oven continuesto heat up.
A smaller sheet of foil may be usedto catch a spillover by placing it on a lower rack several
inchesbelow the food.

Using the probe, ionsomemode sJ
If your model has a door latch, do not lock the oven door with the latch while cooking with the probe. The latch is used for self-cleaning only.
For many foods, especially roasts and poultry, internal food temperature is the best test for doneness. The temperature
probe takes the guesswork out of cooking foods to the exact doneness you want.
The temperature probe has

Useof probes other than the one provided with this product mag result in damage to
the probe. Usethe handles of the probe and plug when
inserting and removing them from the food and outlet.
_,Toavoid damaging your probe,do not use
tongs to pull onthe cablewhen removing it.
_,Toavoid breakingthe probe,make sure food
iscompletely defrostedbeforeinserting.
Toprevent possible bums, do not unplug the probe from the outlet untilthe oven has cooled.
After preparing the meat and placing it on a trivet oron abroiler pangrid, follow these
directions for proper probe placement. Insertthe probe completelg into the meat.
It should not touch the bone,fat or gristle.
