How to Remove Packaging Tape
To assure no damage is done to the finish of the product, the safest way to remove adhesive left from packaging tape on new appliances is an application of a household liquid dishwashing detergent, mineral oil or cooking oil. Apply with a soft cloth and allow to soak. Wipe dry and then apply an appliance polish to thoroughly clean and protect the surface.
NOTE: The plastic tape must be removed from the chrome trim on oven parts. It cannot be removed if it is baked on.
Write down the model and serial numbers.
You’ll find them on a label on the front of the oven behind the door.
These numbers are also on the Consumer Product Ownership Registration Card that came with your oven. Before sending in this card, please write these numbers here:
Model Number Serial Number
Use these numbers in any correspondence or service calls concerning your oven.
If you received a damaged oven…
Immediately contact the dealer (or builder) that sold you the oven.
Save time and money. Before you request service…
Check the Problem Solver in the back of this guide. It lists causes of minor operating problems that you can correct yourself.

Important Safety Instructions
IMPOR TANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Read all instructions before using this appliance.
IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE
• The California Safe Drinking W ater 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 Oven
• Have the installer show you the location of the oven gas cut-off valve and how to shut it off if necessary.
• Have your oven installed and properly grounded by a qualified installer, in accordance
with the Installation Instructions. Any adjustment and service should be performed only by qualified gas oven installers or service technicians.
• Do not attempt to repair or replace any part of your oven unless it is specifically recommended in this guide. All other servicing should be
referred to a qualified technician.
• Be sure all packaging materials are r emoved from the oven before operating it, to prevent
fire or smoke damage should the packaging material ignite.
• Be sure the oven is securely installed in a cabinet that is firmly attached to the house structure. Never allow anyone to climb, sit, stand
or hang on the oven door.
• Be sure your oven is correctly adjusted by a qualified service technician or installer for the type of gas (Natural or LP) that is to be used.
Your oven can be converted for use on either type of gas. See the Installation Instructions.
WARNING: These adjustments must be made by a qualified service technician in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions and all codes and requirements of the authority having jurisdiction. Failure to follow these instructions could result in serious injury or property damage. The qualified agency performing this work assumes responsibility for the conversion.
Using Your Oven
• Do not leave children alone or unattended where an oven is hot or in operation. They
could be seriously burned.
• Do not allow anyone to climb, stand or hang on the door or the broiler drawer. They could damage the oven.
• CAUTION: ITEMS OF INTEREST TO CHILDREN SHOULD NOT BE STORED IN CABINETS ABOVE AN OVEN—CHILDREN CLIMBING ON THE OVEN TO REACH ITEMS COULD BE SERIOUSLY INJURED.
• Teach children not to play with the controls
or any other part of the oven.
• Never leave the oven door open when you are not watching the oven.
•
Always keep combustible wall coverings, curtains or drapes a safe distance from your oven.
• Never wear loose fitting or hanging garments while using the appliance. Be careful when
reaching for items stored in cabinets over the oven. Flammable material could be ignited if brought in contact with flame or hot oven surfaces and may cause severe burns.
• For your safety, never use your appliance for warming or heating the room.
• Do not use water on grease fires.
Smother fire or flame or use a multi­purpose dry chemical or foam-type fire extinguisher .
Flame in the oven can be smothered completely by closing the oven door and turning the oven off or by using a multi-purpose dry chemical or foam-type fire extinguisher.

IMPOR TANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
(continued)
• Use only dry pot holders—moist or
damp pot holders on hot surfaces may
result in burns from steam. Do not let pot holders come near open flames when lifting cookware. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth. Such cloths can catch fire on a hot burner.
• Always keep dish towels, dish cloths, pot holders and other linens a safe distance from your oven.
• Always keep wooden and plastic utensils and canned food a safe distance away from your oven.
• Do not leave paper products, cooking utensils or food in the oven when not in use.
• DO NOT STORE OR USE COMBUSTIBLE MATERIALS, GASOLINE OR OTHER FLAMMABLE VAPORS AND LIQUIDS IN THE VICINITY OF THIS OR ANY OTHER APPLIANCE.
• Do not let cooking grease or other flammable materials accumulate in or near the oven.
• Do not use the oven as a storage area. Items
stored in an oven can ignite.
• Do not touch the interior surface of the oven.
These surfaces may be hot enough to burn even though they are dark in color. During and after use, do not touch, or let clothing or other flammable materials contact, any interior area of the oven: allow sufficient time for cooling first.
Potentially hot surfaces include the oven vent openings, surfaces near the openings and crevices around the door.
Remember: The inside surfaces of an oven may be hot when the door is opened.
• Keep the oven clean and free of accumulations of grease or spillovers, which may ignite.
• When cooking pork, follow the directions
exactly and always cook the meat to an internal temperature of at least 170°F. This assures that, in the remote possibility that trichina may be present in the meat, it will be killed and meat will be safe to eat.
• Stand away from the oven when opening the oven door. The hot air or steam that escapes can
cause burns to hands, face and/or eyes.
• Do not heat unopened food containers.
Pressure could build up and the container could burst, causing an injury.
• Keep the oven vent ducts unobstructed.
• Keep the oven free from grease build-up.
• Place the oven shelf in the desired position while the oven is cool.
• Pulling out the shelf to the stop-lock is a convenience in lifting heavy foods. It is also
a precaution against burns from touching the hot surfaces of the door or the oven walls.
• When using cooking or roasting bags in the oven, follow the manufacturer’s directions.
• Do not use your oven to dry newspapers.
If overheated, they can catch fire.
• Do not use aluminum foil anywhere in the oven except as described in this guide. Misuse could
result in a fire hazard or damage to the oven.
• Use only glass cookware that is recommended
for use in gas ovens.
• After broiling, always take the broiler pan out of the broiler compartment and clean it. Leftover grease in the broiler pan can catch fire next time you use the pan.
• If you should have a grease fire in the broiler pan, turn the oven off and keep the oven and
broiler drawer door closed to contain the fire until it burns out.
• When broiling, if meat is too close to the flame, the fat may ignite. Trim excess fat
to prevent excessive flare-ups.
• Never leave jars or cans of fat drippings in or near your oven.
