water droplets to titan on tile door glass. These droplets are hamfless and will
e\:lporate as tile ()veil contintles to heat up.
Baking results will be better if baking pans are centered in tile oven as Illtlch _lS
possible. Pans should not touch each other or the wails of the oven. If you need to use
two shelves, stagger the pans so one is not directly above the other; and leave
appro_mately 1½" between pans, from the fl'ont, back and sides ot the wall.
Muminum fi)il may also be used to catch a spillove_: To do so, place a small sheet of
toil on a lower shelf several inches below
the fi)od. Never entirely cover a shelf with ahmfinum
toil. This will distm'b the heat circulation and result in poor baking.

Adjust the oven thermostat--Do it yourself!
Youmay find that your new oven cooks differently than the one # 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 vary20-40 degrees.

The type of margarine will affect baking performance!
Most recipes for baklog 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 ahigher 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 pi'odtl('ts labeled "II/_lI'g_lI'iIle" to (ont;lin at least 80% lilt by weight, I,ow lilt spreads, on tile
other hand, contain less tilt and more water: The high moisture content of these spreads aftects tile mxtm'e and flavor of baked goods. For best results with umr old tm'orite recipes, use mmgafine, butter or stick spreads containing at least
70% vegetable oil.

Your range has three proti_ssional-s_'le
double grates. These grates are position- specific. For maximum stability, these grates
should only be used ill their l)roper position; they cannot be ii_terchanged left
to right or fl'ont to back. For coi_velfience, the tmdelsides ot the lett aim right grates
are inarked "I,EVT FRONT" and "PdGHT FRONT." Make sure the fl'ont i)ortion of
both grates is in fl'ont. The middle grate has a bow in fl'ont. Make sure the bowed
portion is towards the front of the range.
Cleaning
Lift out when cool. Grates should be washed regularly and, el comse, after
spillove_s. Wash them in hot, soapy water and rinse with clean water: _4]_en replacing
the grates, be sm'e they are positioned secm'ely over the burne_. Replace the
grates so that contintmus arcs are flmned with the center fibs of all three grates.

without cookware to absorb the heat.
To get rid ot bm'ned-on toed, place the grates in a covered container Add l/4 cup
ammonia and let them soak several hom_ or overnight. Wash, rinse well and d_'.
Mthough they are din'able, the grates will gradually lose their shine, regardless ot the
best care you can give them. This is due to their continual exposure m high temperatures. You will notice this
sooner with lighter color grates.
NOTE:Donot clean the grates in a self-cleaning
oven.
To avoid damaging the porcelain enamel surfilce of the cooktop and to prevent it
from becoming dull, clean up spills right awaz Foods with a lot of add (tomatoes,

the shelf w)u are cooking on. This is particularly important when baking a fl'uit
pie or other toods with a high acid content. Hot fl'uit fillings or other toods that are
highly acidic (such as tomatoes, sauerkraut and sauces with vinegar or lemon juice)
may cause pitting and damage to the porcelain enamel sm'ti_ce and should be

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 may reason, make sure the Anti-Tip device
is engaged when you push the rmige back agMnst the wall.
LOCATION
Do not locate the rmage where it may be subject to strong drafts. Any openings in the floor or wall behind
the rmage should be sealed. Make sure the openings around the base of the range that supply fresh air for combustion mad ventilation axe not obstructed by carpeting or woodwork.
Your range, like ulany other household itenis, is
heavy and can settle into soft floor coverings such as cushioned vinyl or carpeting. Use care when nioving tile range on this type of flooring. It is i'ecolulnended that tile tOlh)wing silnple and inexpensive instluctions be tollowed to protect your floor.
Tile range should be installed on a sheet of plywood
(or siulilar niaterial), When the floor covering ends at the fl'ont of the range, the area that the range will rest on should be built up with plywood to tile saule level or higher than the floor covering.
This will allow tile range to be nioved flir cleaning or servicing. Pdso, ulake sure your floor covering will
withstand 180°F. (See tile Installation Safety Instructions section.)
Make sure tile wall coverings _li'o/ind vo/u" range C_lll
withstand tile heat generated (up tti 200°F) by tile ran ,e (See tile Installation Safety Instructions section.)

[] PROVIDE ADEQUATE GAS
SUPPLY
Your rmlge is designed to operate at a pressure of 4" of water column on natural gas or, if designed for LP gas
(propm_e or butane), 10" of water column.
Make sure wm are supplying your range with tile type
of gas for which it is designed.
This range is convertible flw use on natural or propane gas. If you, decide to use this range on I,P gas,
conversion must be made by a qualified I,P installer
before attempting to operate tile range on that gas.
For proper operation, tile pressure of natm'al gas supplied to tile regulator UltlSt be between 4" and 13"
of water cohlu/IS.
For I,P gas, tile pressure supplied must be between 10" and l 3" of water cohmm.
When checking for proper operation of tile regulator;
tile inlet pressure must be at least 1" greater than tile operating (manifl_ld) pressure as given above.
Tile pressure regulator located at tile inlet of tile range manifl)ld must remain in tile supply line regardless of
whether natm'al or I,P gas is being used. A flexible metal appliance connector used to connect
tile range to the gas supply line should have an I.D. of 1/2" and be 5 feet in length fin" ease of installation. In
Canada, flexible connectors inust be single wall metal connectors no longer than 6 feet in length.
[] CONNECT THE RANGE TO GAS
Shut off the main gas supply valve before discmmecting the old range and leave it off mltil the new hook-up has been completed. Don't forget to relight the pilot on other gas applimaces when you turn the gas back on.
Because hard piping restricts movement of tile range, tile use of a CSA International-certified flexible metal
appliance connector is recolnlnended 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; tile range cannot be moved
alter tile 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 tile gas line
in an easily accessed location outside of the range. Make sure eye,Tone operating tile range knows where and how to shut off the gas supply to the
I'}1ng e.
Install male l/2" flare union adapter to tile 1/2" NPT internal thread at inlet of regulator. Use a backup wrench on tile regulator fitting to avoid damage.
When installing tile range fl'om tile front, remove
the 90 ° elbow tot easier installation.
Install male l/2" or 3/4" flare union adapter to tile NPT internal thread of the manual shut-ott wdve,
taking care to back-up the shut-ott wdve to kee I) it fl'om turning.
D. Connect flexible metal appliance connector to tile
adapter on the range. Position range to permit connection at tile shut-ott wdve.
When all connections have been made, make sure all range controls are in tile off position and turn on
tile main gas supply valve. Use a liquid leak detector at all joints and connections to check fin" leaks in the
svsteul.
WARNING: Do NOTUSEA
FLAME TO CHECK FOR GAS LEAKS.
When using test pressures greater than 1/2 psig to pressure test tile gas supply system of tile residence,
disconnect tile range and individual shut-ott valve fl'om tile gas supply piping. When using test pressures of 1/2
psig or less to test the gas supply system, simply isolate
tile range ti'om tile gas supply system by closing tile
individual shut-oft wdve.

(Adapter plugs not permitted in Canada)
Align large prongs/slots
Ensure proper ground andfirm connection
before use
E_lsureproper ground
exists before use
Tile power cord of this appliance is equipped with a 3-prong (grounding) plug which mates with a standard
3-prong gu_unding wall receptacle to minimize tile possibility oI electric shock ha/ard fi'om this appliance.
Tile customer should have tile wall receptacle and drcuit checked by a qualified electridan to make sure tile
receptacle is properly grounded.
Where a smndaid 2-prong wall receptacle is encountered,
it is the pel_onal responsibility and obligation (ff the customer to haw it replaced with a propedy grounded
3-prong wall receptacle. DO NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCFS, CUT OR
REMOVE THE THIRD (GROUND) PRONG FROM THE POWER CORD.
A word about GFCI's--GFCI's axe not required or
recommended for gas range receptacles.
(;round Emit Circuit lnterruptel_ (GFCI's) are devices that sense leakage of cmTent ill a circuit and automatically
switch off power when a threshold leakage level is detected. These devices must be manually reset by the
consumei: Tile National Electrical Code requires tile use of GFCI's ill kitchen receptacles installed to serve
countertop smfi_ces. Perfbmmnce of tile range will not be aflbcted ht opeiated on a GFCl-protected drcuit
but occasional nuisance tlipping of tile GFCI breaker is possible.
CAUTION: Atta,.l/i.gtheadaptei"gi'.m,d
temfinal m tile _fll receptacle cover screw does not
grotmd 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 tile circuit checked 1)3' a qualified electrician to make
sure the receptacle is properly grounded.
\,_]/en disconnecting tile power cord fl'om tile adapteI; always hold tile adapter with one hand. If this is not
done, tile adaptor ground temfinal is very likely to break with repeated use. Should this hal)pen, DO NOT USE
tile appliance until a proper ground has again been established.

B. Usage Situations where Appliance Power Cord will
he Disconnected Frequently.
Do not use an adapter phlg in these situations because disconnecting of the power cord places undue strain on
the adapter and leads to eventual taihu'e of the adapter ground terminal, The customer should have the two- prong wall receptacle replaced with a three-prong
(grotmding) receptacle by a qualified electrician
befl)re using the appliance.
