reaching for items stored in cabinets over the range• Flammable material could be ignited if

brought in contact with flame or hot oven surfaces

and may cause severe bums.

•Teach children not to play with the controls

or any other part of the range

(continued)

Never pick up a flamingpan.

.Do not use water on grease fires.

Turn the controls off. Smother a flaming pan on a surface burner by

covering the pan completely with a well-fitting lid, cookie sheet or flattray.Use alnulti-purpose

dry chemical or foam-type fire extinguisher• Flaming grease outside apan can be put out by

covering it with baking soda or, if available, by using a multi-purpose dry chemical or foam-type fire extinguisher•

Flamein the oven can be smothered completely

by closing the oven door and turning the oven

off or b.yusing a multi-purpose dry chemical or foam-type fire extinguisher•

.When cooking pork, follow the directions

exactly and always cook the meat to an internal temperature of at least 17001:`. This assures that,

in the remote possibility that trichina may be

present in the meat, it will be killed and the meat will be safe to eat.

.Never leave the oven door open when you are

not watching the range.

• Alwayskeep combustible wall coverings,

curtains or drapes a safe distance from

your range.

•For your safety, never use your appliance for warming or heating the room.

• Always keep dish towels, dishcloths, pot holders and other linens a safe distance

from your range.

•Always keep wooden and plastic utensils

and canned food a safe distance away from your range.

• Do not leave paper products, cooking utensils

or food in the oven when not in use.

.Do not storeflammable materials in an oven,

a range storage drawer or near a cooktop.

• Do not store or use combustible materials,

gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids

in the vicinity of this or any other appliance.

•Donot let cooking grease or other flammable

materials accumulate in or near the range.

Surface Cooking

• Always use the LITE position when igniting the top burners and make sure the

burners have ignited.

.Never leavethe surface burners unattended at

high flame settings. Boiloverscausesmoking and greasy spilloversthatmay catch on fire

• Adjust the top burner flame size so it does not extend beyond the edge of the eookware.

Excessive flame is hazardous.

or damp pot holders on hot surfaces

. Use only dry pot holders--moist

may result inburns from steam

Do not letpot holders come near open flames when lifting cookware. Do not use a towel

or other bulky cloth in place of a pot holder• Such cloths can catch fire on a hot burner•

• When using glass cookware, make sure it is designed for top-of-range cooking.

• To minimize the possibility of bums,

ignition of flammable materials and spillage, turn cookware handles toward the

side or back of the range without extending over adjacent burners.

ways turn the surface burner controls off

before removing cookware.

• Carefully watch foods being fried at a high

flame setting•

• Never block the vents (air openings) of the range• They provide the airinlet and outlet that

are necessary forthe range to operate properly with correct combustion. Air openings are located

at the rear of thecooktop,at the top of the oven

door,and under the storage drawer.

• Do not use a wok on the cooking surface if the wok has a round metal ring that is placed over

the burner grate to support the wok. This ring

actsas a heat trap, which may damage the burner

grate and burner head. Also, it may cause the burner to work improperly. This may cause a

carbonmonoxide levelabove that allowed by current standards, resulting in ahealth hazard.

• Foods for frying should be as dry as possible. Frost on frozen foods or moisture on fresh foods

can cause hot fat to bubble up and over the sides of the pan.

• Do not leave plastic items on the cooktop--- they may melt if left too close to the vent.

• Keep allplasticsaway from the surface burners•

• Do not leave any items on the€ooktop.The hot

air from the vent may ignite flammable items and

willincrease pressure in closed containers, which may cause them to burst.

•Ifyou smell gas, turn off the gas to the range and

call a qualified service technician. Never use an open flame to locate a leak,

•To avoid the possibility of a bum, always be

certain that the controls for all burners are at the off position and all grates are cool before

attempting to remove them.

•Never clean the eooktopsurface when it is hot.

Some cleanersproduce noxious fumes and wet cloths could cause steam bums if used on

a hot surface.

•Never leave jars or cans of fat drippings

on or near your range•

iethe least possible amount of fat for effective

shallow or deep-fat frying• Filling the pan too

full of fat can cause spilloverswhen food is added

•If a combination of oils or fats will be used in frying, stir together before heating or as fats

melt slowly.

• Always heat fat slowly, andwatch as it heats•

•Use a deep fat thermometer whenever

possible to prevent overheating fat beyond the smoking point.

• Never try to move a pan of hot fat, especially

a deep fat fryer. Wait until the fat is cool.

• Use proper pan size--Avoidpans that are

unstable or easily tipped. Select cookware having flatbottoms large enough to cover burner grates.

Toavoidspillovers,make sure cookware is large

enough to contain the food properly. This will both

savecleaning time andprevent hazardous

accumulations of food, since heavy spattering or

spilloversleft on range can ignite. Use pans with handles that can be easilygrasped and remain cool.

Whenflaming foods are under the hood, turn

,e fan off. The fan, if operating, may spread

the flames•

Oven

• Do not use the oven for a storage area. Items

stored in the oven can ignite•

•Stand away from the range when opening the door of a hot oven. The hot air and steam that

escape can cause burns to hands, face and eyes

•Keep the oven free from grease buildup,

• Place the oven shelf in the desired position while the oven is cool.

•Pulling out the shelf to the shelf-stop is a

convenience in lifting heavy foods• It is also a precaution against bums from touching hot

surfaces of the door or oven walls.

•oonot heat unopened food containers. Pressurecould build up and the container could

burst, causing an injury•

• Do not use aluminum foil anywhere in the oven except as describedin this guide• Misuse could

resultin a firehazard or damage to the range

• When using cooking or roasting bags in the oven, follow the package directions.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

(continued)

• Do not use your oven to dry newspapers. If overheated, they can catch fire.

• Use only glass cookware that is recommended for use in ovens.

•When broiling, if meat is too dose to the flame,. the fat may ignite. Trim excess fat to prevent

excessive flare-ups

• After broiling,always take the broiler pan out of the range and clean it. Leftover greasein the broiler

pan can catch firenext time you use the pan.

•If you should have a grease fire in the broiler pan, turn the oven off and keep the oven door

closed to contain fireuntil it bums out.

•Keep the range dean and free of accumulations

of grease or spnlovers,which may ignite.

Self-Cleaning Oven

•Be sure to wipe up excess spillage before self-cleaning operation.

L.P. Conversion

Your range is shipped from the factory set to operate only with Natural Gas. If you wish to use

your range with Liquefied Petroleum Gas, have the

installer check the Installation Instructions that came with your range.

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.

SAVE TItF E

INSTRUCTIONS

• Clean only parts list_ in the Use and Care Guide.

• Before self-cleaning the oven, remove the broiler pan, rack and other cookware.

• Do not clean the door gasket. The door gasket is essential for a good seal. Be careful not to rub,

damage or move it.

.If the seif-deaning mode malfunctions, turn

the oven off and disconnect the power supply Have it serviced by a qualified technician.

•Donot use oven cleaners. No commercial oven cleaner or oven liner of any kind should be used

in or around any part of the oven. Residue from oven cleaners will damage the inside of the oven when the self-clean cycle is used.

•Listen for a fan---afan noise should be heard sometime during the cleaning cycle. If not, call

for service before self-cleaning again.

PREPARATION

,oring Under the Range

Your range, like so many other household items, is heavy and can settle into soft floor coverings

such as cushioned vinyl or carpeting. When moving

the range on this type of flooring, it should be

installed on a 1/4-inch-thick sheet of plywood (or similar material) as follows: When thefloor covering

emis at the front of the range, the area that the range will rest on should be built up with plywood to the same level or higher than the floor covering. This will

allow the range to be moved for cleaning or servicing.

Leveling the Range

Use a 1 N" open-end or adjustable wrench to equally back out the four legs. The flanges (rims) below the

sides of the cooktop must be raised above the top of the countertop. Carefully slide the range into its

installation space. Observe that it is clearing the

countertop. Then place a spirit level or a glass

measuring cup partially filled with water on one of the oven shelves to check for levelness. If using a

spirit level, take two readings, with the level placed

diagonally first in one direction and then the other.

just the four legs carefully. Level the range front to

L,ackand side to side. The range legs must rest on the fl_x_r.The range must not hang from the countertop.

How to Remove Packaging Tape

To assure no damage is done to the finish of the prtnluct, 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 ctx_king 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 range parts. It cannot be removed

if it is baked on.

Removing Packing Materials

Check your range to insure all packaging materials and protective tape covering are removed from areas such as 'the door trim, cooktop frame,

under burner caps, end caps, etc. before using.

The best types of cookware to use. plus heat-up and

cool-down times, depend upon lhe type of burner or

surface unit you have. The following chart will help you to understand the

differences between gas burner cooktops and any

•other type of cooktop you ,nay have used in the past.

SURFACE COOKING

ctric Ignition

Your surface burners are ht by electric ignition, eliminating the need for standing pilot lights with

constantly burning names.

In case of a power failure, you can light the surface

burners onyour range with a match. Hold a lit match to the burner, then push in and turn the control 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.

To Light a Surface Burner

Push the control knob in and turn it counterclockwise

to LITE. After the burner ignites, turn the knob to

adjust the Ilame size. To turn the burner off. turn the

knob clockwise as tar as it will go, to the OFF [x)sition.

• The rear and left front burners are best for smaller pans and cooking operations requiring carefully

controlled simmering conditions. The front right

burner is a high power burner for larger pans and fast Nil ling operations.

Surface Burner Controls

Knobs that turn the surface burners on and offare

marked as to which burners they control. The two knobs on the left control the left front and left rear

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

• Do not operate the burner for an extended period of

time without cookware on the grate. The finish on the grate may chip without cookware to absorb the heat,

• Check to be sure the burner you turn on is the one

you want to use.

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

other materials on them.

Simmer Burner

The smallcn"burner (right rear position) will give the best simmer results.

The lowest setting of the burner has a small flame to provide simmering capability. To simmer foods, set the cookmp control knob to the lower setting that wil:

maintain the desired simmer. If simmering on one burner and the other burners are turned on, the gas

flow of the simmering burner may have to be adjusted.

Super Burner

On some models, the right front burner is cone- shaped with a circular opening through the center of

the burner. This burner can provide 30% more power than any one of the other three. Use it for conning or

large pans.

(conthmed nex! I_cge)

SURFACE COOKING

(continued)

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 UP THE

SIDES OF THE COOKWARE. Any flame larger than the bottom of the cookware is wasted and only serves to heat the handle.

Cookware

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 cox)king methcxls.

Glass: There are two types of glass cookware_those tbr oven use only and those for top-of-range cooking (saucepans, coffee and teapots). Glass conducts heat very slowly.

Wok Cooking

We recommend that you use only a flat-bottomed X_L_ /

wok. They are available at your local retail store.

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

andcooIsvery slowly. Check cookware manufacturer's dil_ctions to be sure it can be used on gas ranges.

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

aluminum or other metals for improved heat distribution. Combination metal skillets usually work satisfactorily ir they are used with medium heat as the

manufacturer recommends.

Do not use woks that have support rings. Use of these _: )' 2

types of woks, with or without the ring in place, can be

dangerous. Placing the ring ....

eve; 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 without the ring. You could be

seriously burned if the wok tipped over.

1. l.ook at the controls. Be sure you understand how to set them properly.

2. Check the oven interior. Lxmkat the shelves.

Take a practice run at removing and replacing them properly to give sure, sturdy support.

3. Read over information and tips that follow.

4. Keep this guide handy so you can refer to it, especially during the first weeks of using your

new range.

NOTE:

•Youmay notice a "burning" or "oily" smell the first few times you turn your oven on. This is normal

in a new oven and will disappear in a short time.

To speed the process, set a self-clean cycle for a minimum of 3 hours. See the Operating the Self-

Cleaning Oven section.

• A fan may automatically turn on and off to cool internal parts. This is normal and the fan may

continue to run even after the oven is turned off.

Electric Ignition

The oven burner and broil burner are lit by electric ignition.

To light either burner, touch the pad for the desired

function and press the INCREASE or DECREASE pad until the desired temperature is displayed. The

burner should ignite within 30-90 seconds. After the oven reaches the selected temperature, the

burner cycles--off completely, then on with a full flame--to keep the oven temperature controlled.

Oven Shelves

The shelves are designed with stop-locks so that

when placed correctly on the shelf supports, they will stop before coming out completely from the

oven, and will not tilt when removing food from or placing food on them.

When placing cookware on a shelf, pull the shelf out

to the bump on the shelf support. Place the eookware

on the shelf, then slide the shelf back into the oven.

This will eliminate reaching into the hot oven.

To remove the shelves from the oven, pull them

toward you, tilt front end upward and pull them out.

To replace, place the shelf on the shelf support with

the stop-locks (curved extension of the shelf) facing up

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.

Power Outage

CAUTION: DO NOT MAKE ANY ATrEMPT TO OPERATE THE ELECTRIC IGNITION OVEN

DURING AN ELECTRICAL POWER OUTAGE. Neither the oven nor the broiler can be lit during an electrical power outage. Gas will not flow unless the

glow bar is hot.

If the oven is in use when a power outage occurs,

the oven burner shuts off and cannot be re-lit until power is restored.

OVEN

Shelf Positions

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 Light

The light comes on automatically 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.

Oven Vent

Your oven is vented through ducts at the rear

of the range. Do not block these ducts when cooking

in the oven--it is important thatthe 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.

,Vent openings and nearby surfaces may become

hot. Do not touch them.

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

• Do not leave

items on the cooktop-- they may melt if left

too close to the vent.

oDo not leave any items on the eooktop. The hot air

from the vent may ignite flammable items and will increase pressure in closed containers, which may

cause them to burst.

,Metal items will become very hot if they are left

on the eooktop, and could cause burns.

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.

BAKING

•oven temperature is controlled very accurately

using an oven ccmtml system• It is recommended that you operate the range for a number of weeks using the

time given on recipes asa guide to become familiar with your new oven's 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 INCREASE or DECREASE pad until the desired temperature is displayed.

The oven will start automatically. The word "ON" and "100 °'"will he 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

NOTE: When the oven gets hot, the top and outside surfaces of the range get hot too.

3. Press the CLEAR/OFF pad when baking is finished and then remove the food from the oven•

NOTE: A fan may automatically turn on and off to cool internal parts. This is normal, and the fan may

continue to run after the oven is turned off.

Preheating

Preheating is necessary for good results when baking

cakes, ccx_kies, pastry and breads. For most casseroles

and masts, preheating is not necessary. For ovens

without a preheat indicator light or tone, preheat

I0 minutes. After the oven is preheated, place the

tt from escaping.

Preheat the oven if the recipe calls for it. 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

preheat time.

BAKING

(continued)

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 absorb heat. When baking in

glass baking dishes, the temperature may need to be

reduced by 25°E

• If you are using dark non-stick pans, you may find thatyou need to reduce the oven temperature 25°F.

to prevent overbmwning.

Pan Placement

For even cooking and proper browning, there must be enough morn 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 I '/.,-inchspace 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.

Baking Guides

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

When bakingcookies, flat cookie sheets (without sides) produce better-looking cookies. Cookies baked

in ajelly rollpan (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. Never entirely cover a shelf with a large cookie sheet.

For best results, use only one cookie sheet in the oven

at a time.

Pies

For best results, bake pies in dark,rough or dull pans to produce a browner, crisper crust. 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.

Cakes

When baking cakes, warped or bent pans will cause uneven bakingresults 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 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.

uminum Foil

Don't Peek

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 fired.

TIMED BAKING

How to Time Bake

The control allows you to turn the oven on or off automatically at specific times that you set. Examples

of hnmediatc Start (oven turns on now and you set it

to turn off autonmically) and Delay Start and Stop (setting the oven to turn on automatically at a later time

and turn o11"at a preset Stop Time) will be described.

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-- minutes.'.

DO NOT open the door to check until the minimum

time. Opening the oven door frequently during cooking allows heat to escape and makes baking

times longer. Your baking results may al_ be affected.

NOTE: Before beginning make sure the clock shows the correct time of day.

To set the clock, first press the CLOCK pad. Press

the INCREASE or DECREASE pad until the con'ect time of day is displayed.

ADJUST TIlE OVEN THERMOSTATm

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 )'ourself. If you think

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

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 2(I-41) degrees.

To Adjust the Thermostat:

1. Press the BAKE pad.

2. Select an oven temperature between 500°E

and 550°E

3. Immediately, before the BAKE indicator stops

flashing, press and hold the BAKE pad for about

ROASTING

Roasting is cooking by dry heat. Tender meat or

poultry can be masted uncovered in your oven.

Roasting temperatures, which should be low and

steady, keep spattering to a minimum.

Roasting is really a baking prcxzedure used for meats.

Therefore. the 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 automatically.

1. Place the shelf in A or B position.

No _reheatin_ is necessary.

2. Check the weight of the -"-'_2,_.l_"_"i_}' meat. Place it fat side _,.,,..._._-_,_

up (or for poultry breast

side up) on masting

rack in a shallow pan. The melting fat wilt

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

Most meats continue to cook slightly while standing. after being removed from the oven. The standing time

recommended for masts is 10 to 20 minutes. This allows roasts to firm up and makes them easier to

carve. The internal temperature will rise about 5" to

10°E; to compensate t0r temperature rise. if desired.

remove the mast from the oven sooner (at 5" to Iff'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.

The oven will start automatically. The word "'ON" and" IO0°'"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 wilt sound.

Use of Aluminum Foil

You can use aluminum foil to tine the broiler pan.

This makes clean-up easier when using the pan for

marinating, cooking with fruits, cooking heavily

cured meats or basting food during cooking. Press the foil tightly around the inside of the pan.

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

the INCREASE or DECREASE pad to get the new temperature.

.aestions 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 the Roasting Guide

section. For roasts over 8 Ibs., check with

thermometer at half-hour intervals after half the cooking time has passed.

Q. Why is my roast crumbling when I try to

carve it?

A. Roasts are easier to slice if allowed m cool I0 to

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

ROASTING GUIDE

Frozen Roasts

Frozen roasts of beef, pork, lamb, etc., can be started without thawing, but allow l0 to 25 minutes per

pound additional time (10 minutes per pound for

_stsunder 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 the directions

given on the package label.

BROILING

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.

The oven door should be closed during broiling.

1. If the meat has fat or gristle around the edge, cut

vertical slashes through both about 2" apart.If desired, the fatmay be trimmed, leaving layer

about1/8"thick.

2. Place the meat on the broiler rack on the broiler pan

which comes with the range. Always use the rack 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.

burner is not necessary. (See the

5. ress the BROIL pad. Preheating the

Comments column in the Broiling Guide.)

Turn the Ibod using tongs (rely 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.

6. Press the INCREASE pad once for LO Broil or press the INCREASE pad twice for HI Broil.

To change from HI Broil to LO Broil, press the DECREASE pad once.

To change back to HI Broil, press the INCREASE 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.

NOTE: A fan may automatically turn on and offto cool internal pans. This is normal, and the tim may

continue to run after the oven is turned off.

Use of Aluminum Foil

You can usc aluminum foil to line your broiler pan and broiler rack. However, you must mold the foil tightly to the rack and cut slits in itjust like the rack.

Without the slits, the foil will prevent fat and meat

juices from draining into 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

O. When broiling, is it necessary to always ttse 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

eval_r'ate. Always salt after cooking. Piercing the meat with a fork also allows the juices to escape. Turn the meat with tongs instead of a fork.

Do I need to grease my broiler rack to prevent the meat from sticking?

No. The broiler rack is designed to reflect broiler heat, thus keeping the surface cool enough to

prevent the meat from sticking to the surface.

However, spraying the broiler rack lightly with a vegetable cooking spray before cooking will make

clean-up easier.

BROILING GUIDE

dways use the broiler pan and rack that comes with

your oven. It is designed to minimize smoking and

spattering by trapping the juices in the shielded lower part of the pan•

• Broiling should always be done with the oven

door closed.

• For steaks and chops, slash 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.

• Ifdesired, marinate meats or chicken before broiling or brush with barbecue sauce last 5 to 10 minutes only.

low resistance to abrasion. An intact well-fitting

oven door gasket is essential for energy-efficient

oven operation and g_x_dbaking 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. Do not let water run down through openings in

the top of the door. To help prevent water t_)m

getting in these slots when cleaning, open the door as far as it will go.

4. Close the oven door and make sure the oven light is off. If the oven light is not turned off',

the life of the bulb will be shortened or it may burn out immediately. The door latches

automatically after the clean cycle is set.

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 temperature may damage the

porcelain finish of the oven.

CARE AND CLEANING

Proper care and cleaning are important so your range will give you efficient and satisfactory service. Follow

these directions carefully in caring for your range to assure safe and proper maintenance.

Burner Cap

_ Burner Head

Mixing Tube _ jSpark Igniter

_ Burner Bowl

BE SURE ELECTRICAL POWER IS

OFF BEFORE CLEANING ANY PARI' OF

THE RANGE.

Burner Assembly

The burner assemblies should be washed regularly

and, of course, alter spiilovers.

Turn all controls off before removing bumer parts.

The electrode of the spark igniter is exposed beyond the surface of the burner bowl. When cleaning the burner bowl, be careful not to snag

the electrode of the spark igniter with your

cleaning cloth. Damage to the igniter could occur. Be careful not to push in any cooktop

controls while cleaning the burner bowls. A slight

electrical shock might result which could cause you to knock over hot cookware.

The burner grates, burner heads and burner caps can be removed for easy cleaning. Removing them gives

you access to the burner bowls. (To avoid snagging a cloth on the spark igniter, leave the burner heads in

place when cleaning the burner bowls. Wash burner

parts with an all-purpose non-abrasive cleaner and warm water. Soak stubborn soil. Dry them with a

cloth-do not reassemble while wet. If the igniter orifice gets dirty or clogged you may use a small

sewing needle to remove the soil.

To reassemble, replace the burner head Iirst, then the burner cap and lastthe burner grate.

CAUTION: DO NOT OPERATE THE BURNER I

WITHOUT ALL BURNER PARTS IN PLACE.

•wner Grates

Porcelain enamel

burner grates should be washed regularly

and, of course, after

spillovers. Wash them

in hot, soapy water and rinse with clean water.

You may also use abrasive cleaners and steel wool pads to clean burner

grates. Dry the grates with a cloth--don't put them back on the range wet. When replacingthe grates. Ix"

sure they're positioned" securely over the burners.

Control Panel and Knobs

It's a goad idea to wipe the control panel after each

use. Clean with mi!dsoap and water or vinegar and

water, rinse with clean water and polish dry with a soft cloth.

Do not use abrasive cleansers, strong liquid

,ansers, plastic scouring pads or oven cleaners

., the control panel-they will damage the finish. A

50/50" solution of vinegar and hot water works well. The control knobs may be removed for easier

cleaning.

Betbre removing the knobs for cleaning, please note

that the knobs on the left side and the knobs on the

right side are in the proper OFF position. When replacing the knobs, check the OFF position to insure

proper placement.

To get rid of burned-on food, place the grates

ina covered container or plastic bag. Add 1/4 cup ammonia and let them soak for 30 minutes. Wash,

rinse well, and dly. To prevent rusting, apply a light coating of cooking

oil to the grates.

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.

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

on the grate may chip without cookware to absorb

the heat.

.__ ........ _ --

To remove a knob, pull it straight off the stem. Ifa knob is difficult to remove, place a thin cloth (like a

handkerchief) or a piece of string under and around the knob edge and pull up.

Wash the knobs in soap and water but do not soak. Avoid getting water into the knob stem holes.

Cooktop Glass

To keep the cooktop looking its best, wipe up any

spills _,; they occur. This will keep them from burning on and becoming more difficult to remove.

As soon as the cooktop is cool, wash the glass surface with a cloth moistened with warm, soapy

water; rinse with clean water, and dry with a soft cloth. You can use any liquid household detergent.

Do not use abrasive materials such as metal pads, cleansing powder and soap tilled pads--they may scratch the surface. Do not use harsh chemicals

such as bleach or chemical oven cleaners. "_r streaks or spotting, you may find it helpful to rinse glass with white

,egar or a fifty percent white vinegar/water solution.

Lift-Off Oven Door

CARE AND CLEANING

(continued)

The oven door is removable, but it is heavy. You may need help

and replacing the door. Do not lift door by the handle. This can cause the

glass to break or can cause damage to

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 andoff the hinges•

NOTE:

• Be careful not to place hands between the hinge and.

the ovcn door frame as the hinge could snap back and pinch fingers.

• While working in the oven area, cover the hinges

with towels or empty paper towel rolls to prevent pinched fingers and chipping the porcelain enamel

on the flame.

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 d(x)r slowly and evenly over both hinges at the same

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

TO CLEAN THE DOOR: 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 soap-filled scouring pad.

• Do not rub or clean the door gasket-the fibcrgl_ss material of the gasket has an extremely low resistance to abrasion• An intact and well-titting

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•

NOTE: The gasket is designed with a gap at the

bottom to allow for proper air circulation•

Inside Gasket

Gasket

Outside of the 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.

Removable Storage Drawer

The storage drawer is a good place to store cookware and bakeware. Do not store plastics and flammable

material in the drawer• Do not overload the storage drawer. If the drawer is

too heavy, it may slip off the track when opened. To open the drawer, grasp the center of the handle and

pull straight out. The storage drawer may be removed for cleaning

under the range.

To remove: Pull the drawer straight out

and lift over the

guide stops. To replace: Lift

over the guide stops and slide the drawer

into place.

To clean both the inside and the outside: Wipe with soap and water. Rinse well. Do not use -

cleansing powders or harsh abrasives which may

scratch the surface.

yen Shelves

Clean the shelves with a mild abrasive cleanser or steel wool. After cleaning, rinse the shelves with clean water and dry with a clean cloth.

NOTE: The oven shelves may also be cleaned in the self-cleaning oven, however, the shelves will darken,

lose their luster and become hard to slide. Wipe the

shelf supports with cooking oil to make the shelves slide moree:isily.

Broiler Pan and Rack

After broiling, remove the broiler pan and rack from

the overt. Remove the rack l_ln the pan. Carefully

pour the grease from the panintoa propercontainer.

Wash and rinse the broiler pan and rack in hot water with it soap-filled or plastic scouring pad.

If food has burned on, sprinkle the rick with detergent while hot and cover with wet paper towels or a dishcloth.

"raking the pan will re,hove burned-on ti×_ds.

Both the broiler pan and rack may be cleaned with a

commercial oven cleaner.

Do not store a soiled pan and rack anywhere in the range.

Both the broiler pan and rack can also be cleaned in the dishwasher.

Do not clean the broiler pan or rack in the self- cleaning oven.

Oven Vent

The oven is vented through an opening at the rear of the cooktop. Never cover the opening with aluminum

foil or any other material. This would prevent the

oven vent from working properly. The vent grille ,nay discolor during self-cleaning.

Clean the oven vent grille with Bon Ami".

Painted Surfaces

The drawer front is a painted surface. Clean it with soap and water or a vinegar and water solution.

Do not use commercial oven cleaners, cleansing

powders, steel wool or harsh abrasives on any

painted surface.

Sure Grip Handle

The soft door handle is easy to keep clean. Soil will easily wash off with

soap and water or a non-abrasive cleaner. Avoid using heavy-duty all- purpose cleaners and detergents, as they may contain chemicals which

might harm the sure grip handle.

CARE AND CLEANING

Oven Light Bulb

The light bulb is located on the back oven wall.

Before replacing the bulb, disconnect the electric

power to the range at the main fuse or circuit breaker panel or unplug the range from the electric outlet.

Let the bulb cool completely before removing it. Do not touch a hot bulb with a damp cloth. If you do,

the bulb will break.

TO REMOVE:

.Remove the 3 screws in the light cover.

• Detach the light cover and remove the bulb. TO REPLACE:

• Put in a new 40-watt appliance bulb.

NOTE: A 40-watt appliance bulb is smaller. than a standard 40-watt household bulb.

.Install the light cover. Replace the 3 screws and

tighten, making sure the cover fits flush with the oven wall.

• Reconnect the electric power to the range.

(continued)

Gasket

,Crystal

Cover Ring

Removable Oven Bottom

The oven bottom can be removed to clean large

spills, and to enable you to reach the oven burner. The oven bottom must be replaced before using

the self-clean cycle.

Unlink Lock

To remove:

1. Slide the tab at the center front of the oven bottom

to the left.

2. Lift the oven bottom up and out. To replace:

1. Slip the oven bottom into the oven so the tabs in the rear of the oven bottom fit into the slots in the

oven back.

2. Lower the front of the oven bottom into place and slide the front tab to the right to lock the oven

bottom into place.

The oven bottom has a porcelain enamel finish. To make cleaning easier, protect the oven bottom from excessive spillovers. This is particularly

imlxmant when baking a fruit pie or other foods with high acid content. Hot fruit fillings or foods that are

acidic (such as milk, tomatoes or sauerkraut, and

sauces with vinegar or lemon juice) may cause pitting and damage to the porcelain enamel surface.

To protect the oven bottom surface, place a piece of aluminum foil slightly larger than the baking dish

or a small cookie sheet on a lower shelf or under the baking dish to catch any spiliovers. It should not

completely cover the shelf as this would cause uneven

heat in the oven. Aluminum foil should not be placed on the oven bottom.

If a spillover does occur on the oven bottom, allow the oven to cool first. You can clean the oven bottom

with soap and water, a mild abrasive cleanser or soap-

tilled abrasive pads. Rinse well to remove any soap

before self-cleaning.

ANTI-TIP DEVICE

3efore placing range in the counter, notice the

location of the stability bracket which is already attached to the back of the range. This location

should work for most installations. However, it may be more convenient to hook the stability

chain to the unit when the stability bracket is

attached to the upper set of holes in the back of the range. See Fig. A. The upper level set of holes

are intended for use with a backsplash kit. If the backsplash is not being used, make sure that there

are na structural suplx)rts for the countertop which will interfere with the stability bracket when

located in the upper set of holes.
