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 ofpotential 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.
Fluorescent light bulbs and safety valves on standing pilot ranges contain mercury. If your model has
these features, they must be recycled according to local, state and federal codes.
SAFETYPRECAUtiONS
Have the installer show you the location of the range gas shut-off valve and how to shut it off if
necessary.
Haw your range installed and pioperly grounded by a qualified insmllel;
in accordance with file Installation
Instructions. A_V adjusunent and service should be performed only by q ua]ified
gas range installers or service technicians.
Do not auempt to repair or replace any
part of your range unless it is specifically
recommended in this mamml. All oilier service should be teferied to a qualified
technician.
Plug your rang_ into a 190_\_lt grounded outlet only. Do not remove the round glounding prong from the plug. If in doubt about the grounding of the home electrical
sysmm, it is your personal responsibility and obligation to haw an ungrounded outlet
replaced with a properly grounded, 3-prong outlet in accordance wifll rite National
Electrical Code. Do not use an exmnsion cord wifll this appliance.

WARNING!
SURFACEBURNERS
Use proper pan size--avoid pans that are unstable or easily tipped. Select cookware having flat bottoms
large enough to cover bumer grates. Toavoid spiflovers, make sure cookware is large enough to contain
the food properly. This will both save cleaning time and prevent hazardous accumulations of food, since
hea vy spattering or spillovers left on range can ignite. Usepans with handles that can be easily grasped
and remain cooL
Ahvays use dm HTE position (on electric ignition models) or tim HI position (on standing pilot models) when igniting the mp N_rners m_d make sum tim burners ha\e igmited.
Ne\er lea\e the surPace burners unattended at high flame settings. Boilo\ers cruise smoking and
greasy spillo\ers that mW camh on rite. Adjust the mp burner flame size so it does
not exmnd beyond the edge of tim cookware. Excessive flame is hazardous.
Use only dry pot holders--moist or damp pot holders on hot surfaces m W _esuh in burns flom smam. Do not let pot holders come near open flames when lifting cookwa_e. Do not use a rowel or other bulky cloth in place of a pot holde_:
When using glass cookware, make sure it is designed for mi_f-_m_ge cooking.
To minimize the possibility of bums, ignition of flammable materials and spillage, turn
cookware handles toward the side or back of tim _wnge without exmnding o\er
adjacent burners. Carefldly wamh foods being flied at a high
flame setting. Ahvays heat Pat slowly, and watch as it beats. Do not lea\e any imms on the cooktop. The
hot air flom tim \_nt m W ignim flammable imms and will increase p_essure in closed
containers, which mW cause them m burst. /f a coml)ination of oils or f_ltswill be used
in fixing, stir together before beating or as f_ltsmeh slowly.
Use a deep f_t thermomemr whene\er possible m pre\ent o\eflmafing fat beyond the smoking point.
[_lsethe least possible amount of _lt for eflbcti\e shallow or deep-lht fixing. Filling the pan mo fidl of fat can cause spillo\ers
when food is added. When flaming foods are under tim hood,
turn tim fan off. Tim _m, if operating, m W spread tim flames.
Do not use a wok on tim cooking sur_lce if tim
wok has a round metal ring that is placed o\er tim burner g_ate to support tim wok. This ring
acts as a heat uap, which may damage the burner gram and burner bead. Also, it may
cm_se tim Nlrner m work improperly. This may cm_se a carbon monoxide le\el abo\'e that
allowed by current standards, resuhing in a
heahl_ hazard.
Foods for flying should be as d_T as possible. Frost on flozen foods or moisture on flesh
foods can cause hot fat m bubble up and o\_r tim sides of the pan.
Ne\er tU m mo\e a pan of hot Pat, especially a deep fat flye_: Wait until the fat is cool.
Do not lea\e plastic imms on the cooktop--
they m W meh if left mo close m the \ent. Kee I) all plastics away flom tim surface burners. To a\'oid the possibility of a N]rn, always be
certain that the controls for all burners are at the OFFposition and all grams ate cool
before atmmpting m remo\e them.
/f range is locamd near a window, do not hang
long curtains d_at could blow o\er the surface N_rners and c_eam a fire hazard.
When a pilot goes out (on standing pilot
models), you will demct a £unt odor of gas as your signal m relight the pilot. When
relighdng the pilot, make sure burner controls are in the OFFposition, and follow instructions
in this manual m relight.
/f you smell gas, and you ha\e aheady made sure pilots ate lit (on standing pilot models),
turn off tim gas to the range and call a qualified service teclmician. Ne\er use an
open flame m locam a leak. Be carefid when you clean the cookmp
because tim area o\er tim pilot (on standing
pilot models) will be hot. Ahvays turn tim surface burner controls off
before _emo\'ing cookware.

If your model has a door latch, do not lock the oven door with the latch during timed cooking. The latch is used for
self-cleaning only. NOTE"Foods that sped easily-such as milk, eggs, fish, stuffings, poultry and pork-should not be allowed to sit for more
than 1hour before or after cooking. Room temperature promotes the growth of harmful bacteria. Be sure that the oven
light is off because heat from the bulb will speed harmful bacteria growth.
Thelow temperature zone of this range (between 150°!:and200°!:) is avariable to keep hot cooked foods warm.

Do ,lot use oxen for a storage area. Imms stored ill d_e oxen call ignim. Do ,lot let cooking gxease or other flammable mamrials accumu]am ill or near the range.
LOCATION
Donot 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 imms,
is heaxy' and can setde into soft floor coxedngs such as cushioned vinyl or carpeting. Use care when moving tile range oil this type of flooring. It is _ecommended that file fbllowing simple and inexpensixe instructions be followed m promct your floor
The range should be installed on a sheet of plywood (or similar material). When tile floor coveling ends at file front of the range, file a_ea that the range will rest oil should be 1)uih up with plywood m the same level or hi01er titan the floor coxeling.
This will allow tile range to be moxed for cleaning or servicing. Also, make sure your floor coxering will withstand 180°E (See the
Installation Safe_/ Instructions section.)
Make sure die wall coverings around your range can withstand tile heat generamd (uI) to 200°F) by tile range. (See the Installation Safety
Instructions section.)
IMPORTANT!
Remove all tape and packaging. Lift up the cooktop (on models with standard twin burners) and remove
any packing material under it.Make sure the standard twin burners are properly seated and level Takethe accessory pack out of the oven. Check to be sure that no range parts have come loose during shipping.

[] Provide Adequate Gas Supply
Yourrange is designed to operate at a pressure of 4" 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 tile t}pe of gas for which it is designed.
This range is convertible fin" rise on nattli'al oi" propane gas. If you decide to use this range on
I,P gas, conversion must be made bv a qualified I,P installer betme attempting to operate tile range
on that gas. D)r proper operation, tile pressm'e of natm'al gas
SUl)plied to tile _egulator must be between 4" and
13" of water column.

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 ot tile range, the use of an A.G.A.-certified flexible metal
appliance com_ector is recommended tmless local codes require a hard-l)iped cmmection.
Never use an old cmmector when installing a new range. If tile hard piping method is used, you ii/tlSt
careflflly align tile pipe; tile range cmmot be moved alter the com_ection is made.
To prevent gas leaks, put l)ipe joint compotmd on, or wrap pipe thread tape with Teflon':: arotmd, all
