Gas appliances can cause minor exposure to four of these substances, namely benzene, carbon

monoxide, formaldehyde and soot, caused plimafily by the incomplete combustion of naturat 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.

HOW DOES THIS COOKTOP COMPARE

TO YOI_ OLD ONE?

Your new cooktop has gas burners. If you are used to cooking with induction or other electric surface

units, you will notice some differences when you use gas bumers_

Type of Cooktop How it Works Gas Burners

Radiant

(Glass Ceramic) Cooktop

Description

Regular or sealed gas burners use

either LP gas or natural gas.

Electric coils under a glass-

ceramic cooktop_

Flames heat the pans directly. Pan flatness is not critical to cooking results, but flat-bottomed pans provide more stability on top of the grates,_Gas burners heat

the pan right away and change heat settings right away. When you turn the control off, cooking stops right away_

Heat travels to the glass surface and then to the cook-ware, so pans must be flat on the bottom for good cooking results. The glass cooktop stays hot enough to

continue cooking after it is turned off° Remove the pan from the surface unit if you want cooking to stop.

Induction

Electric Coll

Solid Disk

High frequency induction coils

under a glass surface,

Flattened metal tubing containing

electric resistance wire suspended

over a drip pan. Solid cast iron

disk sealed to the cooktop surface.

Pans must be made of ferrous metals (metal that attracts a magnet)_ Heat is produced by a magnetic circuit between the coil and the pan. Heats up right away

and changes heat settings right away, like a gas cooktop._ After turning the control

off, the glass cooktop is hot fxom the heat of the pan, but cooking stops right away. Heats by direct contact with the pan and by heating the air under the pan. For best

cooking results, use good quality pans, Electric coils are more forgiving of warped pans than radiant or solid disks,_Heats up quickly but does not change

heat settings as quickly as gas or induction. Electric coils stay hot enough to continue cooking for a short time after they are turned off.

Heats by direct contact with the pan, so pans must be fiat on the bottom for good cooking results+ Heats up and cools down more slowly than electric coils._The

disk stays hot enough to continue cooking after it is turned off. Remove the pan from the solid disk ff you want the cooking to stop.

The best types of cookware to use, plus heat-up and cool-down times, depend upon the type of burner or surface unit you have°

The following chart wil! help you to understand the differences between gas burner cook-tops and any

other ,q_e of cooktop you may have used in the past°

Surface Burner Controls

SURFACE COOKING

The knobs that turn the surface burners on and off are Iocated on the control panel in front of the burners.

The two knobs on the left control the left front and left rear burners. The two knobs on the fight control the right front and fight rear burners.

Before Lighting a Burner

• If drip pans are supplied with your range,

they should be used at all times°

° Make sure all grates on the range are in place

before using any burner°

To Light a Surface Burner

Push the control knob in and turn it to LITE. You

will hear a little "clicking" noise--the sound of the electric

spark igniting the burner. Turn the knob to adjust the

flame size° If the knob stays at LITE, it will continue to click°

On ranges with sealed burners:

• The smaller burner (right rear position) wil! give

the best simmer results. It offers precise cooking

performance for delicate foods, such as sauces or

foods which need to cook over low heat for a long time. It can be turned down to a very low

simmer setting.

• The fight front burner is higher powered than the others and will bring liquids to a boil quicker_

When one burner is turned to LITE, all the burners spark° Do uot attempt to disassemble or clean around

any burner while another burner is om An electric shock may result, which could cause you to knock

over hot cookware_

In case of a power failure, you can light the surface burners on your range with a match. Hold a lighted match to the burner, then turn the knob to

the LITE position° Use extreme caution when lighting burners this way.

Surface burners in use when an electrical power failure occurs will continue to operate normally_

After Lighting a Burner

• Do not operate a burner for an extended period of

time without cookwareon the grate. The finish on the

grate may chip without cookware to absorb the heat.

How to Select Flame Size

Watch the flame, not the knob, as you reduce heat. The flame size on a gas burner should match the

cookware you are using. FOR SAFE HANDLING OF COOKWARE NEVER

LET THE FLAME EXTEND LIP THE SIDES OF THE COOKWARE,

Any flame larger than the bottom of the cookwme is

wasted and only serves to heat the handle_

• Be sure the burners and grates are cool before you place your hand, a pot holder, cleaning cloths or

other materials on them.

(continued next page)

Top-of-Range Cookware

SURFACE COOKING

(continued)

Aluminum: Medium-weight cookware is recommended because it heats quickly and evenly.

Most foods brown evenly in an aluminum skillet. Use saucepans with tight-fitting lids when cooking

with minimum amounts of water. Cast-Iron: If heated slowly, most skillets will give

satisfactory results. Enamelware: Under some conditions, the enamel of

some cookware may melt, Follow cookware manufacturer's recommendations for cooking methods_

Stove Top Grills (onmodels with sealed burners)

Do not use stove top grills on your sealed gas burners.

If you use the stove top grill on the sealed gas burner it

will cause incomplete

combustion and can result in exposure to carbon

monoxide levels above allowable current standards.

This can be hazardous to your health.

Glass: There are two types of glass cookware--those for oven use only and those for top-of-range cooking

(saucepans, coffee and teapots). Glass conducts heat very slowly.

Heat-proof Glass Ceramic: Can be used for either surface or oven cooking. It conducts heat very slowly

and cools very slowly. Check cookware manufacturer's directions to be sure it can be used on gas ranges_

Stainless Steel: This metal alone has poor heating properties and is usually combined with copper,

aluminum or other metals for improved heat distdbutiono Combination metal skillets usually work

satisfactorily if they are used with medium heat as the manufacturer recommends.

Wok This Way (onmodels with sealed burners)

We recommend that you use a flat-bottomed wok°

They are available at your local retail store.

A traditional round bottom wok can be used with Wok

Holder accessory, model JXWK which can be ordered from your appliance dealer° The Wok Holder fits on

top of the range grate to provide support and proper air circulation for traditional round bottom woks only.

Do not use fiat bottomed woks with the Wok Holder.

Do not use a wok on any other support ring.

Placing the ring over the burner grate may cause the

burner to work improperly, resulting in carbon _,_

monoxide levels above allowable current standards° This could be dangerous

to your health. Do not try to use such woks wi_out the ring unless you are using the Wok Holder° You

could be seriously burned if the wok tipped over.

USING YOUR OVEN

Before Using Your Oven

Be sure you understand how to set the controls properly. Practice removing and replacing the shelves while the oven is cool. Read the information and

tips on the follo_nkng pages., Keep this guide handy where you can refer to it, especially during the first weeks of using your new range.

Electric Ignition

Power Outage

CAUTION: Do not make any attempt to operate the electric ignition

oven during an electrical power failure. The oven or broiler cannot be lit during a power failure. Gas wilt not flow

unless the glow bar is hot. If the oven is in use when a power failure occurs, the oven burner shuts

off and cannot be re-lit until power is restored. This is because the flow of gas is automatically stopped and will not resume when power is

restored until the glow bar has reached operating temperature.

Oven Moisture

As your oven heats up, the temperature change of ttle air in the oven may

cause water droplets to form on the door glass. These droplets are harmless

and will evaporate as the oven continues to heat upo

Fluorescent Night Light (onsomemodels)

Use the switch on the upper control panel to turn the light on and off_

Oven Light

Use the switch on the lower control panel to turn the light on or off.

Automatic Oven Shut Off

As a safety feature, this oven wit! automatically shut itself off if it has been left on for more than 12 hours.

Oven Vents

USING YOUR OVEN

(continued)

The oven is vented through duct openings at the rear of the cooktop. See the Features section. Do not block these openings when cooking in the oven--it is

important that the flow of hot air from the oven and flesh air to the oven burners be uninterrupted.

. The vent openings and

nearby surfaces may

become hot. Do not touch them.

• Do not leave plastic Ventappearanceandlocationvary, items on the cooktop_

they may melt if left too close to the vent.

Oven Shelves

The shelves are designed with stop-locks so when placed correctly on the shelf supports, they will

stop before coming completely out of the oven and will not tilt when you are removing food from them

or placing food on them.

When placing cookware on a shelf, pull the shelf out to the bump on the shelf support° Place the cookware on the shelf, then slide the shelf back into the oven_

This will eliminate reaching into the hot oven. To remove a shelf from the oven, pull it toward you,

flit the front end upward and pull the shelf out° To replace, place the shelf on the shelf support with

the stop-locks (curved extension of the shelf) facing up and toward the rear of the oven° Tilt up the front

and push the shelf toward the back of the oven until it goes past the bump on the shelf support. Then lower

the front of the shelf and push it all the way back.

• Handles of pots and pans on the cooktop may become hot if left too close to the vent.

• Metal items will become very hot if they are left on the cooktop and could cause burns.

° Do not leave any items on the cooktop. The hot air

from the vent may ignite flammable items and will

increase pressure in closed containers, which may cause them to burst°

Bump

Shelf Positions

The oven has five shelf supports for baking,

masting and broiling identified in this illustration as A (bottom), B, C, D and E (top). it also has a

special low shelf position (R) for roasting extra large items, such as a large turkey--the shelf is not

designed to slide out at this position. Shelf positions for cooking are suggested in the Baking, Roasting

and Broiling sections,.

BAKING

Do not lock the oven door with the latch during baking. The latch is used for serf-cleaning only.

Your oven temperature is controlled using the latest technology oven control systems° It is recommended

that you operate your new oven for a number of weeks to become familiar with its performance.

How to Set Your Range for Baking

To avoid possible burns, place shelves in the correct position before you turn the oven on,

1. Press the BAKE pad° 2, Press the + or - pad until the desired temperature

is displayed.

The oven will start automatically, The word "ON" and "100 °'' will be displayed. As the oven heats up, the display will show the changing temperature, When the

oven reaches the temperature you set, a tone will sound°

Oven Shelves

If you think an adjustment is necessary, see the Adjust

the Oven Thermostat section. It gives easy Do It Yourself instructions on how to adjust the thermostat.

3, Press the CLEAR/OFF pad when baking is finished

and then remove the food from the oven°

To change the oven temperature during BAKE cycle, press the BAKE pad and then the + or - pad

to get the new temperature.

Arrange the oven shelf or shelves in

the desired locations while

the oven is cool. The correct shelf

position depends //" on the kind of

food and the browning desired.

As a general rule, place most foods in the middle of the oven, on

either shelf position B or C, See the chart for suggested shelf positions.

Preheating

Preheat the oven if the recipe calls for iL Preheat means bringing the oven up to the specified

temperature before putting the food in the oven°

To preheat, set the oven at the correct temperature--

selecting a higher temperature does not shorten

Pies or pie shells Frozen pies Casseroles

Roasting

Preheating is necessary for good results when baking cakes, cookies, pastry and breads. For most casseroles

and roasts, preheating is not necessary, For ovens without a preheat indicator light or tone, preheat 10

minutes. After the oven is preheated place the food in the oven as quickly as possible to prevent heat

from escaping°

BAKING

(continued)

Pan PLacement

For even cooking and proper browning, there must be enough room for air circulation in the oven. Baking

results will be better ff baking pans are centered as much as possible rather than being placed to the front

or to the back of the oven,

Baking Guides

When using prepared baking mixes, follow package recipe or instructions for best baking results.

Pans should not touch each other or the walls of the oven° Allow 1- to 1¼-inch space between pans as

well as from the back of the oven, the door and the sides. If you need to use two shelves, stagger the pans

so one is not directly above the other.

When baking cookies, flat cookie sheets (without

sides) produce better-

looking cookies. Cookies baked in a jelly roll pan

(short sides all around) may have darker edges and pale or light browning may occur.

Cookies can be baked on several shelves at the same time but browning may be uneven because of reduced

air circulation.

Do not use a cookie sheet so large that it touches the wails or the door of the oven.

Pies For best results, bake pies

in dark, rough or dull pans to produce a browner,

crisper crusL Stagger the pies for most even

browning. Frozen pies in foil pans should be placed

on an aluminum cookie sheet for baking since the shiny foil pan reflects

heat away from the pie crust; the cookie sheet helps retain it.

Aluminum Foil

Never entirely cover a

shelf with aluminum foil. This will disturb the heat

circulation and result in poor baking. A smaller

sheet of foil may be used to

catch a spillover by placing it on a lower shelf several

inches below the food. Do not put aluminum foil on the oven bottom.

Cakes

For best browning when baking several 8" or 9" cakes, stagger them so one

pan is not directly above another. Warped or bent pans will cause uneven

baking results and poorly shaped products. A cake

baked in a pan larger than the recipe recommends will usually be crisper, thinner and drier than it should beo

If baked in a pan smaller than recommended, it may be undercooked and batter may overflow°

Baking Pans

Use the proper baking pan. The type of finish on the pan determines the amount of browning that will occur.

• Dark, rough or dull pans absorb heat resulting in a

browner, crisper crust. Use this type for pies.

. Shiny, bright and smooth pans reflect heat, resulting

in a lighter, more delicate browning. Cakes and cookies require this type of pan°

• Glass baking dishes also absorb heat_ When baking in glass baking dishes, the temperature may need to

be reduced by 25°E

Don't Peek

Set the timer for the estimated cooking time and do not open the door to look at your food. Most recipes

provide minimum and maximum baking times such

as "bake 30-40 minutes"

TIMED BAKING

ADJUST THE OVEN THERMOSTAT--

DO IT YOURSELF!

You may find that your new oven cooks differently than the one it replaced. We recommend that you

use your new oven for a few weeks to become more

familiar with it, following the times given in your recipes as a guide°

If you think your new oven is too hot or too cold, you can adjust the thermostat yourself. If you think

it is too hot, adjust the thermostat to make it cooler. If

you think it is too cool, adjust the thermostat to make it hotter.

We do not recommend the use of inexpensive thermometers, such as those found in grocery stores,

to check the temperature setting of your new oven. These thermometers may vary 20-40 degrees

To Adjust the Thermostat:

ROASTING

Do not lock the oven door with the door latch during roasting. This is used for serf-cleaning only.

Roasting is cooking by dry heat_ Tender meat or poultry, can be roasted uncovered in your oven.

Roasting temperatures, which should be low and steady, keep spattering to a minimum.

The oven has a special low shelf OR) position

just above the oven

bottom° Use it when extra cooking space is

needed, for example, when roasting a large

turkeyr The shelf is not designed to slide out at this position.

1. Position the oven at shelf 03) position

for small size roast (3 to 5 Ibs°) and at

(R) position for

larger roasts.

Roasting is really a baking procedure used for meats° Therefore, oven controls are set for Baking or Timed

Baking. (You may hear a slight clicking sound, indicating the oven is working properly.) Timed

Baking will turn the oven on and off automatica!ly. Most meats continue to cook slightly while standing,

after being removed from the oven. The standing time recommended for roasts is 10 to 20 minutes. This

a!lows roasts to firm up and makes them easier to carve. The internal temperature will rise about 5° to

10°E; to compensate for the temperature rise, if

desired, remove the roast from oven sooner (at 5° to

10°E less than the temperature in the Roasting Guide)°

Remember that food will continue to cook in the hot oven and therefore should be removed when the

desired internal temperature has been reached.

4. Press the + or - pad until the desired temperature is displayed.

The oven will start automatically° The word "ON"

and "100 °'' will be displayed. As the oven heats up,

the display will show the changing temperature. When the oven reaches the temperature you set, a tone will

sound.

2. Check the weiglat of the meat. Place the meat fat side

up, or poultry breast side up, on masting grid in a shallow pan. The melting fat wilt baste the meat. Select

a pan as close to the size of the meat as possible. (The broiler pan with grid is a good pan for this.)

BA_3. Press the BAKE pad.

Use of Aluminum Foil

You can use aluminum foil to line the broiler

pan. This makes clean- up easier when using the pan for marinating,

cooking withfruits, cooking heavily cured

meats or basting food during cooking_ Press

the foil tightly around the inside of the pan.

roasting is finished and then remove the food from the oven.

5. Press the CLEAR/OFF pad when

To change the oven temperature during the roasting cycle, press the BAKE pad and then

the + or - pad to get the new temperature.

Dual Shelf Cooking

This allows more than one food to be cooked at the same time. For example: while roasting a 20 lb. turkey

on shelf (R) a second shelf may be added on position D so that scalloped potatoes can be cooked at the same

time. Calculate the total cooking time to enable both dishes to complete cooking at the same time. Allow

15-20 minutes of additional cooking time.

Questions and Answers

Q. Is it necessary to check for doneness with a

meat thermometer?

A. Checking the finished internal temperature at the

completion of cooking time is recommended. Temperatures are shown in Roasting Guide. For

roasts over 8 lbs., check with thermometer at half- hour intervals after half the time has passed°

Q. Why is my roast crumbling when I try to

carve it?

A. Roasts are easier to slice if allowed to cool 10 to

20 minutes after removing from oven° Be sure to cut across the grain of the meat.

ROASTING GUIDE

Frozen Roasts

Frozen roasts of beef, pork, lamb, etco, can be started without thawing, but allow 15 to 25 minutes per pound

additional time (15 minutes per pound for roasts under 5 pounds, more time for larger roasts).

Q. Do I need to preheat my oven each time I cook

a roast or poultry?

A. It is not necessary to preheat your oven. Q. When buying a roast, are there any special tips

that would help me cook it more evenly?

A. Yes_ Buy a roast as even in thickness as possible,

or buy rolled roasts.

Q. Can I seal the sides of my foil "tent" when

roasting a turkey?

A. Sealing the foil will steam the meat. Leaving

it unsealed allows the air to circulate and brown the meat°

Make sure poultry is thawed before roasting°

Unthawed poultry often does not cook evenly° Some commercial frozen poultry can be cooked

successfully without thawing° Follow directions given on package label.

BROILING

Do not lock the oven door with the latch during broiling. The latch is used for seLf-cleaning only.

Broiling is cooking food by direct heat from above the food_ Most fish and tender cuts of meat can be

broiled_ Follow these directions to keep spattering and smoking to a minimum.

1. If the meat has fat or gristle around the edge, cut vertical slashes through both about 2" apart. If

desired, the fat may be trimmed, leaving layer about 1/8" thick_

2. Place the meat on the broiler grid on the broiler pan which comes with the range. Always use the grid so the fat drips into the broiler pan; otherwise the

juices may become hot enough to catch on fire.

3, Position the shelf on the recommended shelf

position as suggested in the Broiling Guide.

4. Close the oven door.

Use of Aluminum Foil

The oven door must be closed during broiling.

Turn the food only once during broiling° Time the foods for the first side according to the Broiling

Guide Turn the food, then use the times given for the second side as a guide to the preferred doneness.

5, Press the BROIL or BROIL HULO pad.

6. Press the + pad once for LO Broil (450°F) or press

the + pad twice for HI Broil (550°F). To change from HI Broil to LO Broil, press the

BROIL pad and then the - pad once°

7, When broiling is completed, press the CLEAR/OFF

pad° Serve the food immediately, and leave the pan outside the oven to cool during the meal for

easiest cleaning°

You can use aluminum foil to line your broiler pan and broiler grid. However, you must mold the foil tightly to the grid and cut slits in it just like the grid°

Without the slits, the f0il will prevent fat and meat

juices from draining to the broiler pan. The juices

could become hot enough to catch on ftre. If you do not cut the slits, you are frying, not broiling.

Questions and Answers

Q. When broiling, is it necessary to always use a

grid in the pan?

A. Yes. Using the grid suspends the meat over the

pan. As the meat cooks, the juices fal! into the pan, thus keeping meat drier. Juices are protected by the

grid and stay cooler, thus preventing excessive spatter and smoking.

Q. Should I salt the meat before broiling? A. No. Salt draws out the juices and allows them to

evaporate Always salt after cooking. Turn the meat with tongs; piercing the meat with a fork also

allows the juices to escape When broiling poultry or fish, brush each side often with butter.

Q, Why are my meats not turning out as brown as

they should?

A, Check to see if you are using the recommended

shelf position° Broil for the longest period of time indicated in the Broiling Guider Turn the food only

once during broiling.

BROHJNG GUIDE

The oven door must be closed during broiling,

• Always use the broiler pan and grid that comes with

your ranger It is designed to minimize smoking and spattering by trapping juices in the shielded lower part of the pan°

*For steaks and chops, slash the fat evenly around

the outside edges of the meat. To slash, cut crosswise through the outer fat surface just to the edge of the

meat, Use tongs to turn the meat over to prevent piercing the meat and losing the juices.

. Use LO Broil to cook foods such as poultry or thick

pork chops thoroughly without over-browning them.

Remove the grates and lift out the drip pans.

Drip pans can be cleaned in dishwasher or by hand.

To get rid of burned-on food, place them in a covered container (or plastic bag) with I/4 cup

ammonia to loosen the soil. Then scrub with a soap-filled scouting pad if' necessary.

When replacing the drip pans, make sure they

are in the correct position, CAUTION: Do not clean the drip pans in a

self-cleaning oven_

(continued next page)

Burner Grates

CAPE AND CLEANING

(continued)

Lift out when cool,. Grates should be washed

regularly and, of course, after spillovers. Wash

them in hot, soapy water and rinse with clean water.

After cleaning, dry them thoroughly by putting them in

a warm oven for a few minutes_ Don't put the grates back on the range while they are wet. When replacing the grates, be sure they're positioned securely over

the burners. To prevent rusting on cast iron grates, apply a light

coating of cooking oil on the bottom of the grates.

Cooktop Surface

To avoid damaging the porcelain

enamel surface of the cooktop and to

prevent it from becoming dull,

clean up spills tight away. Foods with a

lot of acid (tomatoes, sauerkraut, fruit juices, etco) or foods with high sugar

content could cause a dull spot if allowed to set. When the surface has cooled, wash and rinser For

other spills such as fat spatterings, etco, wash with soap and water once the surface has cooled° Then

rinse and polish with a dry cloth.

Do not store flammable materials in an oven or near the cook-top. Do not store or use combustible

materials, gasoline or other flammable vapors and

To get rid of burned-on food, place the grates in a covered container (or plastic bag) with 1/4 cup

ammonia to loosen the soil. Let sit overnight (or approximately 12 hours), then scrub with a soap-filled scouring pad if necessary.. Rinse grates

thoroughly and dry completely before replacing them on the range top_

Although they're durable, the grates will gradually lose their shine, regardless of the best care you can

give them. This is due to their continual exposure to

high temperatures° You will notice this sooner with lighter color grates_

Do not operate a burner for an extended period of time without eookware on the grate. The finish on

the grate may chip without cookware to absorb the heat_

CAI_ION: Do not clean the grates in a

dishwasher or in a self-cleaning oven.

Oven Bottom

The oven bottom has a porcelain enamel finish. To

make cleaning easier, protect the oven bottom from excessive spillovers by placing a cookie sheet on the

shelf below the shelf you are cooking on.. This is particularly important when baking a fi_dt pie or other foods with a high acid content°

We don't recommend using aluminum foil on the oven bottom° It can affect air flow if the holes are

blocked and it can concentrate heat at the bottom of the oven, resulting in poor baking performance.

Hot fruit fillings or other foods that are highly acidic (such as milk, tomatoes or sauerkraut, and sauces with

vinegar or lemon juice) may cause pitting and damage to the porcelain enamel surface and should be wiped

up immediately. To clean up spiltovers, use soap and water, an abrasive cleaner or scouring pad. Rinse well

to remove any soap before self-cleaning.

Brushed Chrome Cooktop (onsomemodels)

Clean the brushed chrome top with warm, soapy water or Bon Ami ®brand cleanser and immediately dry it with a clean, soft cloth. Take care to dry the

surface following the "grain" To help prevent finger marks after cleaning, spread a thin film of baby oil

on the sttfface. Wipe away excess oil with a clean, soft cloth,

Lift-Off Oven Door

The oven door is removable, but it is heavy. You may need help removing arid replacing the door.

To remove the door, open it a few inches to the special stop position

that will hold the door open° Grasp firmly on each side and lift the door

straight up and off the hinges_ NOTE: Be careful not to place hands

between the hinge and the oven door frame as the hinge could snap back

and pinch fingers° To replace the door, make sure the hinges are in the

special stop position_ Position the slots in the bottom of the door squarely over the hinges_ Then lower the door slowly and evenly over both hinges at the same

time, If the hinges snap back against the oven frame, pull them back out.

TO CLEAN THE DOOR: (Do not immerse the door in water.)

Inside of the door:

• Because the area inside the gasket is cleaned during

the self-clean cycle, you do not need to clean this

by hand° Any soap left on the liner causes additional

stains when the oven is heated°

• The area outside the gasket can be cleaned with

a scouring pad.

• Do not rub or clean the door gusketmthe

fiberglass material of the gasket has an extremely low resistance to abrasion. An intact and well-

fitting oven door gasket is essential for energy- efficient oven operation and good baking results,

If you notice the gasket becoming worn, frayed or damaged in any way or if it has become displaced on the door, you should have it replaced.

Inside gasket

gasket

Outside of the door:

• Use soap and water to thoroughly clean the top,

sides and front of the oven door° Rinse well. You may also use a glass cleaner to clean the glass on

the outside of the door.

• Spillage of marinades, fruit juices, tomato sauces and basting materials containing acids may cause discoloration and should be wiped up immediately.

When the surface is cool, clean and rinse.

• Do not use oven cleaners, cleansing powders or

harsh abrasives on the outside of the door.

_] PROVIDE ADEQUATE GAS SUPPLY

Your range is designed to operate at a pressure

of 4" of water column on natural gas or, ff designed

for LP gas (propane or butane), 10" of water

column_ Make sure you are supplying your range

with the type of gas for which it is designed. This

range is convertible for use on natural or propane

gas. If you decide to use this range on LP gas,

conversion must be made by a qualified LP installer before attempting to operate the range on that gas.

For proper operation, the pressure of natural gas supplied to the regulator must be between 4" and 13" of water column. For LP gas, the pressure

supplied must be between 10" and 13" of water column. When checking for proper operation of the regulator, the inlet pressure must be at least

1" greater than the operating (manifold) pressure as given above. The pressure regulator located

at the inlet of the range manifold must remain in the supply line regardless of whether na_u-al or

LP gas is being used. A flexible metal appliance connector used to connect the range to the gas supply line should have an I.D. of 1/2" and be 5 feet in length for ease of installation, tn Canada, flexible connectors must be single wall metal connectom no longer than 6 feet m length.

[] COHHECT THE RANGE TO GAS

Shut off the main gas supply valve before disconnecting the old range and leave it off until

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 of the range, the use of an A.Gdk-certified flexible metal appliance connector is recommended

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; the range

cannot be moved after the 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.

[] €OHHECT THE RAHGE TO GAS (continued)

1. Install a manual gas line shut-offvalve in the gas line in an easily accessed location outside of the range. Make sure everyone operating the range knows where and how to shut off the gas

supply to the range.

2. Install male 1/2" flare union adapter to the

1/2" NPT internal thread elbow at inlet of

regulator. On models equipped with standard twin burners, install the male pipe thread end of the 1/2" flare union adapter to the

1/2" NPT internal thread at inlet of pressure

regulator. Use a backup wrench on the regulator fitting to avoid damage.

When installing the range from the front,

remove the 90 ° elbow for easier installation.

3. Insta_ male 1/2" or 3/4" flare union adapter to the NPT internal thread of the manual shut-

offvalve, taking care to back-up the shut-off

valve to keep it from turning.

4. Connect flexible metal appliance connector to the adapter on the range. Position range

to permit connection at the shut-offvalve.

5. When all connections have been made, make sure all range controls are in the off position and

turn on the main gas supply valve. Use a liquid

leak detector at all joints and connections to

check for leaks in the system.

CHECK FOR GAS LEAKS.

I CAUTION: DO NOT USE A FLAME TO l

When using test pressures greater than 1/2 psig to pressure test the gas supply system of the

residence, disconnect the range and individual

shut-off valve from the gas supply piping. When

using test pressures of 1/2 psig or less to test the

gas supply system, simply isolate the range from the gas supply system by closing the individual

shut-off valve.

Electrical Requirements

120-volt, 60 Hertz, properly grounded branch circuit protected by a 15-amp or 20-amp circuit breaker or time delay fuse_

Extension Cord Cautions Because of potential safety hazards associated

with certain conditions, we strongly recommend against the use of an extension cord. However,

if you still elect to use an extension cord, it is absolutely necessary that itbe a ULlisted, 3-wire grounding-type appliance extension cord and that the current carrying rating of the cord in amperes be equivalent to, or greater than, the branch circuit rating.

Grounding

IMPORTANT--(Please read carefully) FOR PERSONAL SAFETY, THIS APPLIANCE

MUST BE PROPERLY GROUNDED.

The power cord of this appliance is equipped

with a three-prong (grounding) plug which mates with a standard three-prong grounding

walt receptacle

PREFERRED METHOD

to minimize the possibility of

electric shock

hazard from this appliance.

The customer

should have the

wall receptacle

and circuit

checked by a

qualified electrician to make sure the receptacle is properly grounded.

Where a standard two-prong wall receptacle is

encountered, it is the personal responsibility and obligation of the customer to have it replaced with

a properly grounded three-prong wall receptacle.

ELECTRICALCONNECTIONS(continued)

[_ Usage Situations where Appliance

Power Cord will be Disconnected Infrequently. An adapter may be used only on a 15-amp

circuit Do not use an adapter on a 20-amp circuit Where local codes permit, a

TEMPORARY CONNECTION may be

made to a properly grounded two-prong wall receptacle by the use of a UIAisted adapter, available at most hardware stores. The larger slot in the adapter must be aligned with the larger slot in the wall receptacle to provide proper polarity in the connection of the power cord.

\ _)/_ Ensure proper

/f [ ground and

1_ firm connection

before use

r_ Usage Situations where Appliance Power Cord will be Disconnected Frequently.

Do not use an adapter plug in these situations

because disconnecting of the power cord

places undue strain on the adapter and leads to

eventual failure of the adapter ground terminal.

The customer should have the two-prong

walt receptacle replaced with a three-prong

(grounding) receptacle by a qualified electrician

before using the appliance.

The installation of appliances designed for

mobile home installation must conform with the Manufactured Home Conslxuction and

Safety Standard, Title 24 CF1L Part 3280

(formerly the Federal Standard for Mobile

Home Construction and Safety, Title 24, HUD, Part 280) or, when such standard is not

applicable, the Standard for Manufactured

Home Installations, latest edition (Manufactured Home Sites, Communities and Set-Ups), ANSI

A225.t, latest edition, or with local codes. In

Canada, mobile home installation must be in

accordance with the current CAN/CSA

Z240/MH Mobile Home Installation Code.

Eled_c Disco,nect

1. Locate disconnect plug on the range back.

2. Pinch sides of connector and pull out of range back.

CAtTFION: Attaching the adapter ground terminal to the wall receptacle cover screw

does not ground the appliance unless the cover screw is meta!, and not insulated, and the wall receptacle is grounded through the house

wiring. The customer should have the circuit

checked by a qualified electrician to make sure

the receptacle is properly grounded.

When disconnecting the power cord from the

adapter, always hold the adapter with one hand. If this is not done, the adapter ground terminal is very likely to break with repeated use. Should

this happen, DO NOT USE the appliance until a proper ground has again been established.

Seal any openings in the wall behind the range

[] CHECK IGHITIOH OF SURFACE BURNERS

Operation of all cooktop and oven burners should be checked after the range and gas supply lines have been careflflly checked

for leaks. Electric Ignition Models

Select a top burner knob and simultaneously push in and turn to LITE position. You will hear

a snapping sound indicating proper operation of the spark module. Once the air has been purged from the supply lines, burners should light within 4 seconds. After burner lights, rotate knob out of the LITE position. Try each

burner in succession until allburners have been checked.

Quulity of Flames

The combustion quality of burner flames needs to be determined visually.

[6-! CHECK IGHITIOH OF OVEH BURHER

The oven is designed to operate quietly and

automatically. To operate the oven, press the BAKE pad and then press the + pad until "350 °" appears in the display. After 30-90 seconds, the oven burner will ignite and burn until the set temperature is reached. The oven burner wil! continue to cycle on and off as necessary to maintain the oven at the temperature indicated by

the display.

To check ignition of the broil burner, press the

BROIL pad and then the + or- pad. After 30-90 seconds, the broil burner wilt ignite.

Electric ignition models require electrical

power to operate. In case of a power outage, the oven burners on these models cannot be lit

manually with a match. Gas will not flow unless

the glow bar is hot.

If the oven is in use when a power outage occurs, the burner will shut off and cannot be re-lit until

power is restored.

[_ ADJUST BROIL AND OVEH BURNER AIR

ADJUSTMEHT SHUTTERS IF NECESSARY

Air adjustment shutters for the top and bottom burners regulate the flow of air to the flames.

il 1J

The air adjustment shutter for the top

(broil) burner is in the center of the rear

wall of the oven.

To determine if the bottom burner flames are burning properly, remove the oven bottom.

Flames should have approximately 1" blue cones and, ff range is supplied with natural gas, should

burn with no yellow tipping. (With most LP gas, small yellow tips at the end of outer cones are

normal.) Flames should not lift off burner ports. If lifting is observed, gradually reduce air shutter

opening until flames are stabilized.

To remove the oven

bottom:

1. Remove the knurled screws holding down rear \

of the oven bottom,

2. Grasp the oven _'\ / bottom at finger slots

on each side.

3. Lift the rear of the oven bottom enough to clear the tip of the range frame, then pull out.

The shutter for the bottom (oven) burner is near

the back wall behind the storage drawer or the kick panel (depending on the model). Remove

the drawer or panel. See the Care and Cleaning section in this guide.

To adjust the flow of air to either burner, loosen

the Phillips head screw and rotate the shutter toward open or closed position as needed.

The flames for the top (broil) burner should be

steady with approximately 1" blue cones and should not extend out over the edges of the burner baffle°

LEVELING THE RAHGE

1. Remove the storage

drawer or kick panel.

2. Use a 3/16" open-end

or socket wrench to back out both rear leveling legs

approximately two turns.

3. Use a 1¾" open-end or 1] adjustable wrench to back

out the front leveling legs two turns.

4. Install the oven shelves in the oven and position

the range where it will be installed.

5. Check for levelness by placing a spirit level or a cup, partially filled with water, on one of the

oven shelves. If using a spirit level, take two readings--with the level placed diagonally first

in one direction and then the other.

6. Adjust the leveling legs until the range is level.

7. After the range is level, slide the range away from the wall so that the Anti-Tip device

can be instaUed.

[] IHSTALL|NG THE AHTI-TiP DEVICE
