IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE The California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic

Enforcement Act requires the Governor of California to publish a list of substances known to the state to cause cancer, 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 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 further by venting with an open window or using a ventilation fan or hood.

When You Get Your Cooking Center

When you get your cooking center, have the installer show you the location of the gas cut-off valve and how to shut it off if necessary.

●

Have your cooking center

grounded by a qualified instiller, in accordance with the Installation Instructions. Any adjustment and service should by performed only by qualified gas range installers or service technicians.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Your cooking center, like so many other household items, is heavy and can settle into soft floor coverings such as cushioned vinyl. When moving the cooking center on this type of flooring, use care.

Do not install the cooking center over kitchen

carpeting unless you place an insulating pad or sheet of l/4-inch thick plywood between the cooking center and carpeting.

LEVELING THE COOKING CENTER

When the floor covering ends at the front of the cooking center, the area that the cooking center will rest on should be built up with plywood or similar material to the same level or higher than the floor covering. This will allow the cooking center to be moved for cleaning or servicing.

Leveling legs are located on each corner of the base of the

cooking

Your cooking center must be level in order to produce proper cooking and baking results. After it is in its final location, place a level horizontally on an oven

shelf and check the levelness front to back and side to side. Level the cooking center by adjusting the leveling legs.

OVEN SET

The OVEN SET control has settings for BAKE, BROIL, T. BAKE, CLEAN and OFF. When you turn the knob to the desired setting, the proper burner is activated for the operation.

BAKE—Use this setting for all normal oven operations—for example, for cooking roasts or casseroles. Only the bottom oven burner operates during baking.

BROIL—Use this setting for broiling. Only the top (broil) burner will operate.

T. BAKE—When you use this setting, the oven will turn on and off at the times you select.

To replace, place the shelf

oven. Tilt up front and push the shelf toward the back of the oven until it goes past “stop” on the oven wall. Then lower the front of the shelf, and push it all the way back.

The oven has four shelf supports identified in this illustration as A (bottom), B, C and D (top).

Shelf positions for cooking are suggested in the Baking, Roasting, and Broiling sections.

Oven Vent

Your oven is vented through duct openings at the

center rear of the cooktop. Do not block these ducts

when cooking in the oven— it is important that the flow of hot air from the oven and fresh air to the oven burner be uninterrupted.

Avoid touching the vent openings or nearby surfaces during oven or broiler operation—they

may become hot.

Oven Light

The light comes on automatically on some models

when the oven door is opened. Use the switch on the control panel to turn the light on and off when the

door is closed.

If left too close to the vent:

● Plastic items may melt.

● Handles may become hot—use a pot holder.

● Metal will become very hot—use a pot holder.

● Flammable items may ignite.

● Pressure will increase in closed containers causing

them to burst.

Oven Moisture

As your oven heats up, the temperature change of the

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 up.

Adjusting the Oven Thermostat

Use the time given on a recipe when cooking the first time. Oven thermostats, in time, may “drift” from the factory setting and differences in timing between an old and a new oven of 5 to 10 minutes are not unusual. If you find that your foods consistently brown too little or too much, you may make a simple adjustment in the thermostat (the Oven Control) knob.

We do not recommend the use of inexpensive thermometers, such as those found in the grocery store, to re-adjust the temperature setting of your new oven. These thermometers can vary by Your oven thermostat has been preset to maximize cooking efficiency. To obtain peak cooking results, make the temperature adjustment and cooking results for several days. If you are not satisfied with cooking results, re-adjust the temperature.

If you think the oven should be hotter or cooler, you can adjust it yourself. To decide how much to change the temperature, set the oven temperature 25”F. higher or lower than the temperature in your recipe, then bake. The results of this “test” should give you an idea of

how much the temperature should be changed. Pull the knob off

To raise the oven temperature, move the pointer in the direction of the arrow for RAISE. To lower the temperature, move the pointer in the direction of

We suggest that you make the adjustment one mark from the original setting and check oven performance before making any additional adjustments.

After the adjustment is made, press skirt and knob together and retighten screws so they are snug, but be careful not to overtighten. Reinstall knob on range and check performance.

NOTE: After an adjustment has been made, the OFF

Your oven temperature is controlled very accurately using an oven control system. We recommend that you operate the range for a number of weeks to become familiar with your new oven’s performance. If you think an adjustment is necessary, see the Adjusting the Oven Thermostat section.

How to Set Your Range for Baking

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

1. Close oven door, turn the OVEN SET knob to BAKE, push in and

and use the recommended cooking time in the recipe. This is not necessary when baking pies or casseroles.

Pan Placement

For even cooking and proper browning, there must be enough room for air circulation in the oven. Baking results will be better if baking pans are centered as much as possible rather than being placed to the front or to the back of the oven.

Pans should not touch each other or the walls of the oven. Allow 1 to 1

as from the back of the oven, the door and the sides. If you use two shelves, stagger the pans so one is not directly above the other.

Baking Guides

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

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.

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

For best results, use only one cookie sheet in the oven at a time.

Pies

For best results, do not bake pies in a shiny metal pan.

The heat is reflected and the bottom crust will be pale

and underdone. 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 cover a shelf entirely with a large cookie sheet or aluminum foil. This will disturb the heat

circulation and result in poor baking. A smaller sheet

of foil may be used to catch a on a lower shelf several inches below the food.

Cakes

When baking cakes, warped or bent pans will cause uneven baking results and poorly shaped products. A cake baked in a pan larger than the recipe

recommended will usually be crisper, thinner and drier than it should be. If baked in a pan smaller than recommended, it may be undercooked and batter may

overflow. Check the recipe to make sure the pan size

used is the one recommended.

means

Broiling is cooking food by intense radiant heat from the upper unit in the oven. Most fish and tender cuts of meat can be broiled. Follow these steps to keep spattering and smoking to a minimum.

The oven door should be closed during broiling.

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

If desired, the fat may be trimmed, leaving a layer about 1/8 inches thick.

2. Place the meat on the broiler rack in the broiler pan which comes with the oven. Always use the rack so the fat drips into the broiler pan; otherwise the

juices may become hot enough to catch fire.

3. Position the shelf on the recommended shelf position as suggested in the Broiling Guide. Most broiling is done on C position.

Use of Aluminum Foil

4. Close the oven door.

5. Turn the OVEN SET knob to BROIL and the OVEN TEMP knob to BROIL. Preheating units is not necessary. (See notes in the Broiling Guide.)

6. Turn food only once during broiling. Time foods for first side according to the Broiling Guide.

Turn food, then use times given for second side as a guide to preferred doneness. (Where two thicknesses and times are given together, use first times given for the thinnest food.)

7. When finished broiling, turn the OVEN SET knob to OFF. Serve food immediately, leaving the broiler pan and rack outside oven to cool during the meal for easiest cleaning.

You can use aluminum foil to line your broiler pan and broiler rack. However, you must mold the foil foil will prevent fat tightly to the rack and cut slits in it just like the rack. and meat juices from

draining to the broiler pan. The juices could become hot enough to catch on fire. 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 rack in the pan?

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

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

with tongs; piercing meat with a fork allows 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. In some areas, the power (voltage) to the oven

may be low. In these cases, preheat the broil unit for 10 minutes before placing broiler pan with food in oven. Check to see if you are using the recommended shelf position. Broil for longest period of time indicated in the Broiling Guide. Turn food only once during broiling.

Q. Do I need to grease my broiler rack to prevent

meat from sticking?

A. No. The broiler rack is designed to reflect broiler

heat, thus keeping the surface cool enough to prevent meat from sticking to the surface. However, spraying the broiler rack lightly with a vegetable cooking spray before cooking will make cleanup easier.

BROILING GUIDE

(continued)

1. Always use broiler pan and rack that comes with your oven. It is designed to minimize smoking and spattering by trapping juices in the shielded lower part of the pan.

2. Broiling should always be done with the oven door closed.

3. For steaks and chops, slash fat evenly around outside edges of

meat. To slash, cut crosswise

through outer fat surface just to the edge of the

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

Before a Clean Cycle

1. Remove the broiler pan, broiler rack and other cookware from the oven. (Oven shelves may be left in oven. NOTE: Shelves will discolor during the

self-

cleaning cycle.)

2. Wipe up heavy soil on oven bottom. If you use soap, rinse thoroughly before self-cleaning to prevent staining.

—l—

under the front edge of the cooktop, the door liner outside the door gasket and the front edge of the oven cavity (about 1 inch into the oven). Use detergent and hot water with a soap-filled steel wool pad, then rinse well with a vinegar and water mixture. This will help

prevent a brown residue from forming when the oven

is heated. Buff these areas with a dry cloth.

●

Do not let water run down through openings in the top

of the door (C).

●

Do not rub or clean the door gasket

(B)—the

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

4. Close the oven door and make sure the oven light is off. Make sure the oven light bulb cover is in place.

The oven shelves may be cleaned in the self-cleaning oven. However, they will darken, lose their luster and become hard to slide. Wipe the shelf supports with cooking oil after self-cleaning to make the shelves slide more easily.

Chrome drip pans from the top of your range should

never be cleaned in the self-cleaning oven. Do not use commercial oven cleaners or oven protectors

in or near the self-cleaning oven. A combination of any of these products plus the high clean cycle temperatures may damage the porcelain finish of the oven.

Important The oven door must be closed and all controls must be set correctly for the clean cycle to work properly.

Questions and Answers

Q. Why won’t my oven clean

immediately even though I set all the time and clean knobs correctly?

A. Check to be sure the START

dial is set to the same time as the range clock. Also check to be sure latch handle is moved to the right.

Q. What causes the hair-like lines

on the enameled surface of my oven?

A. This is a normal condition,

resulting from heating and cooling during cleaning. They do not affect how your oven performs.

Q. Why do I have ash left in my

oven after cleaning?

A. Some types of soil will leave

a deposit, which is ash. It can be removed with a damp sponge or cloth.

Q. My oven shelves have become

gray after the self-cleaning cycle. Is this normal?

A. Yes. After the self-cleaning

cycle, the shelves may lose some luster and discolor to a

Q. What should I do if excessive

smoking occurs during cleaning?

A. This is caused by excessive soil,

and you should switch the OVEN SET knob to OFF. Open windows to rid room of smoke. Allow the oven to cool for at least one hour before opening the door. Wipe up the excess soil and reset the clean cycle.

Q. My oven shelves do not slide

easily. What is the matter?

A. After many cleanings, oven

shelves may become so clean they do not slide easily. To make shelves slide more easily, after each self-cleaning cycle, dampen fingers with a small amount of cooking oil and rub lightly over sides of shelf where they contact shelf supports.

Q. If my oven clock is not set to

the correct time of day, can I still self-clean my oven?

If the clock is not set to the

correct time of day you will not

be able to set a delay clean to

end at a specific time.

Q. Is the “crackling” sound I

hear during cleaning normal?

A. Yes. This is the metal heating

and cooling during both the cooking and cleaning functions.

Q. Can I cook food on the cooktop

while the oven is self-cleaning?

A. Yes. While the oven is

cleaning, you can use the cooktop

just as you normally do.

Q. Can I use commercial oven

cleaners on any part of my self-cleaning oven?

A. No cleaners or coatings should

be used around any part of this oven. If you do use them and do not thoroughly rinse the oven with water, wiping it absolutely clean afterwards, the residue can scar the oven surface and damage metal

Outside

● Clean the outside of the microwave oven with

soap and a damp cloth, then rinse with a damp cloth and dry. Wipe the window clean with a damp cloth. Chrome is best wiped with a damp cloth and then with a dry towel.

Inside

● Keep the microwave oven clean and sweet-smelling.

Opening the oven door a few minutes after cooking

helps air out the interior. An occasional thorough

wiping with a solution of baking soda and water

keeps the interior fresh.

● Spills and spatters are easy to remove from walls

and floor. That’s because there’s little heat except in the food, or sometimes in the cookware. Some spatters wipe up with a paper towel, some may require a damp cloth. Remove greasy spatters with a sudsy cloth, then rinse and dry.

Wipe up spatters on the window on the inside of the door daily. When the window is soiled, wash it with a damp cloth. Rinse thoroughly and dry.

Wipe metal and plastic parts on the inside of the door frequently. Use a damp cloth to remove all soil. Do not use abrasives, such as cleaning powders or

Blue/gold heat stains can be lessened with a metal polish but are usually permanent. To minimize

staining, avoid excessive use of high heat setting and use flat bottom pans that do not extend more than two inches from the surface unit.

The drip pans may also be cleaned in the dishwasher.

When replacing drip pans, the notch on the rear pan and the notch on the front pan should meet in the middle.

Range Top Burners

The

holes in the burners must be kept clean at all times

To remove burned-on food, soak the burners in a solution of mild liquid detergent and water or a solution for cleaning the inside of coffee makers, such as 30 minutes. If the food doesn’t rinse off completely, scrub them with soap and water and a brush or plastic pad. Do not use steel wool or abrasive cleansers because they will clog the burner openings and scratch the burners. If the holes become clogged, clean them with a small sewing needle or a small safety pin.

The oven door is removable to make the interior more accessible during replacement of the lamp bulb.

Open the oven door fully and remove the two Phillips screws that hold the door to the hinges. Then close the door to the automatic stop position (at about 3 inches open), and lift the door straight up and off the hinges. (Due

to the large amount of insulation

and the construction of the door,

it is heavy.)

TO CLEAN THE DOOR: Inside of 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

gasket–the 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.

Outside of door:

“

Use soap and water to thoroughly

clean the top, sides and front of the oven door. Do not let water run down through openings in the top of the 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 surface is cool, clean and rinse.

● Do not use oven cleaners,

cleansing powders or harsh abrasives on the outside of the door.

Lamp Replacement

CAUTION: Before replacing your oven lamp bulb,

disconnect the electric power for your range at the main fuse or circuit breaker panel or pull the plug.
