IMPORTANTSAFETYNOtiCE
The Califomb Safe Drinking Water and ToxicEnforcement Act requires the Governor of Californb 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 abluish 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.

WARNING!
SURFACEBURNERS
Use proper pan size--a void pans that are unstable or easily tipped. Select cookware having flat
bottoms large enough to cover burner grates. Toavoid spillovers, make sure cookware is large
enough to contain the food properly. This will both save cleaning time and prevent hazardous accumulations of food, since heavy spattering or spillovers left on range can ignite. Usepans with
handles that can be easily grasped and remain cooL
Always use d_e LITE posidon when igniting
the top burners and make sure the burners
haze ignited. Nexer leave flse surthce burners
unattended at hiOl flame setting:s.
Boiloxers cause smoking and greasy
spilloxers fllat may catch on fre. Adjust tile mp bui_mr flame dze so it does
,lot extend beyond dse edge of tile
cookware. Excessixe flame is hazardous. Use only d U pot holders--moist or damp
pot holders on hot surl_aces may resuh in burlls flom steam. Do not let pot holders
come near open flames when lifting cookware. Do not use a towel or other
bulky cloth in place of a pot holden 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 btsY/lS, ignidon of flammable matesials and

If a combination of oils 05 fats will be used in flying, stir together before heating or as
fats meh slowly.
Do not use a wok on the cooking suifi_ce if file wok has a round metal ring that is placed oxer the burner grate to support file wok. This 5qng acts as a heat trap, which may damage tile burner grate and burner
head. Also, it may cause file builder to work improperly. This may cause a carbon
monoxide lexel above flint allowed by cmxent standards, resulting in a heahh
hazard. Foods for flying should be as dry as
possible. Frost on fozen foods or moisture on flesh foods can cause hot l_atto bubble
up and oxer the sides of the pan. Use the least possible amount of tht for
eflectixe shallow or deep-tht flTing. Filling tile pan too flfll of fat can cause spillo_ers
when food is added. Use a deep fat thermometer whenexer
possible to prexent oveflseafing fat beyond dse smoking point.
Ne_er n;v to mo_e a pan of hot tht, especially a deep l_atflyer _4'ait until the tht is cool.

How to Light a Surface Burner
Donot operate theburner for an extended period of time without cookware on the grate. Thefinish on thegrate may chip without cookware to absorb
theheat. Checkto be sure the bumer you tum on is the one
youwant to use.
Besure thebumers and grates are cool before you place your hand, a pot holder, cleaning cloths or
other mateda/s on them.
Thesmaller burner (right rearposition) will give the best simmer results. Thelowest setting of the burner has a smaflflame toprovide simmering capability Tosimmer foods,set the co&top control knob to the/owestsetting that wi// maintain the desired simme_ If simmering on one burner and the other burners are turned on, the gas flow of the sirnmedngburner may have to beadjusted.
Be sure you turn the control knob to OFFwhen you finish cooking.

How to Select Flame Size
Use a fiat-bottomed wok.
Forsafe handlIng of cookware,never let the flames extend up the sides of the co&ware,
Watch tile flame, not tile knob, as vou
reduce heat. The flame size on a gas
bm'ner should match tile cookware w)u are using.
Wok This Way
We recommendthat you use a fiat-bottomed wok,
availableat your local retail stores,or usethe Wok Holderaccessory with traditional round bottomed woks,
TheWokHolder accesso_ model JXWK, canbe
ordered from your appliance dealer
The X&'ok Holder fits on top of tile range grate to provide support and proper air
circulation for traditional rotmd bottom woke only. Do not rise flat bottolned wales with tile XAk)k Holder.
Cookware Aluminum:Medium-weight cookware is
recommended because it heats quickly and evenly. Most fbods brown evenly in
an ahmfinmn skillet. Use saucepans with
tight fitting lids when cooking with minim mn am Otlnts of water:
Enamelware:Under some conditions,
tile enaillel of soil/e cookware ill[iv illelt.
Follow cookware illanttfilCttli'ei"s
recommendations tot cooking methods.
Glass: There are two t)p_ of glass
cook\v_lI'e: those for oven rise only and
those for top-ot:range cooking
(saucepans, coffee and tea pots). Glass
conducts heat vex_' slowly.
Any flame larger than tile bottom of tile
cookware is wasted and only sei'_es to heat tile handle.
Do not use a wok on }lily other stlpport
ring. Placing tile ring over tile burner grate may cause the burner to work
improperl> resulting in carbon monoxide levels above allowable cmTent
standards. This could be dangerous to
your health. Do not tlW to use such wo]cs without the ring Ulfless you are using the

Youmay find that your new oven cooks differently than the one it replaced. Use your new oven for a few weeks to become more familiar with it. If you still think your new oven is too hot or too cold, you can adjust the thermostat yourself.
Donot use thermometers, such as those found in grocery stores, to check the temperature setting of your oven. These thermometers may vary 20_40 degrees.

Most recipes for baking have been developed using high fatproducts such as butter or margarine (80% fat). If you
decrease the fat, the recipe may not give the same results as with ahigher fatproduct.
Recipe failure can result if cakes, pies, pastries, cookies or candies are made with low fat spreads. The lower the fat
content of a spread product, the more noticeable these differences become.
Federal st;mdards require products labeled "mmga_ine" to contain at least 80% tilt by weight. I.ow tilt spreads, on the other hand, contain less tilt and mo_e water; The high moisttue content of these spreads aftect the texture and flavor
of baked goods. For best results with your old til\'o_ite recipes, rise margarine, butter or stick spreads containing at least 70% vegetable oil.
