Porcelain ovenInterior
(on all models except Continuous-Cleaning Models) With proper care, the porcelain enamel interior will
retain its attractive finish for many years. Soap and water will normally do the job. Heavy
spattering or spillovers may require cleaning with a mild abrasive cleanser. Soapy,wet pads may also be used. Do not allow food spills with a high sugar or acid content (such as milk, tomatoes, sauertiaut, fruit juicesor pie filling) to remain on the surface. They may cause dull spots even after cleaning.
Household ammonia may make the cleaning job easier. Place 1/2 cup ammonia in a shallow glass pan and leave in a cold oven overnight. The ammonia
fumes will help loosen the burned-on grease and
food.
Whennecessary,youmayusea commercialoven cleaner.FO11OWthepackagedirections.

This
range has been design-certied by the AmericanGasAssociationaccordingtoANSI221.1, latest edition and CanadianGas Association according to CANICGA-1.Ilatest edition.As with any applianceusing gas and generating heat, there are certain safetyprecautions you should follow.Youwillfind these precautions in the Important SafetyInstructions in the front ofthis book. Read them carefully.
~ Haveyour range installed by a qua~ed
installer or service technician.
~Yourrange must be electricallygrounded in accordance with localCO*<Sor, in the absence of localcodes, in accordancewith the National Electrical Code (ANS1/NFPA70,latest edition). In Canada,electricalgrounding must be in accordancewithtie current CSAC22.1Canadian ElectricalCode Part 1 and/or localcodes. See Electrical Connectionsin this section.
~ Before installingyour range on linoleum or any other synthetic floorcovering, make sure the floor covering can withstand 180°R without shrinking, warpiiig or discoloring.Do not install the range over carpeting unless a sheet of 1/4” thick plywoodor similarinsulator is placed between the range and carpeting.
s Make sure the wallcoverings around the range can withstid heat generated by the range up to 200°R
~Avoidplacing cabinets above the range. To
reduce the hazard caused by reaching over the
open flames ofoperatingburners, installa ventilationhood over the range that projects forwardat leastWbeyondthetiontofthe cabinets.
~The ventilatinghood must be constructed of sheet metal not less than 0.0122”thick. Install abovethe cooktopwith a clearance ofnot less
than 114”between the hood and the underside ofthe combustiblematerialor metalcabinet.The hood must beat leastaswideas the appfianceand centered over the appliance.Clearance between the coohg surfaceandtheventilationhood stice mm mR BE m m 24 mcm.

minimum clearance of30”between the cooking
surface and the bottom ofunprotected cabinets.

be adjusted to meet spectic requirements.
~The
rangemaybe placedwith 0“clearance
(flush)atthe backwalland sidewallsofthe range.
Do not locatethe range where it may be subject to strong drafts.Anyopeningsin the floor or wall behind the range should be sealed. Make sure the openings around the base ofthe range that
supplytiesh air for combustion and ventilation
are not obstructed by carpeting or woodwork.
PRoTEcrYOURFLOOR
Yourrange, likemany other household items, is heavyand can setde intosoftfloorcoveringssuch as cushioned vinylor carpeting. Use care when
movingthe range on this me offlooririg.It is recommended that the followingsimple and inexpensiveinstructions be followedtoprotect your floor.Therangeshouldbeinstied on a sheet ofplywood(orsimilarmaterial). men thefloor
covering
enh at thefio~~tofthera~ge,the area
that the range willrest on should be built up with plywoodto the same levelor higher than the floorcovering.This willallowthe range to be movedfor cleaningor servicing.
Depending on your range, you’llfindthe model and serial numbers on a label on the front frame ofthe range, behind the storage drawer,kick panel or broiler drawer.

ExtensionCord Cautions
Because ofpotential safetyhazards associated
with certain conditions,we strongly recommend
againstthe use of an extension cord. However, ifyou sti~ elect to use an extension cord, it is absolutelynecessary that it be a UL-listed, 3-wiregrounding-type applianceextension cord and that the current carrying rating ofthe cord in amperes be equivalentto, or greater than, the branch circuit rating.
