To reduce the risk of tipping the range, the range must be secured by a

properly installed anti-tip bracket. See

installation instructions shipped with the bracket for complete details before attempting to install.

To check if the bracket is installed and engaged properly, carefully tip the range forward. The bracket should stop the range within 4 inches. If it does not, the bracket must be reinstalled.

If the range is pulled from the wall for any reason, always repeat this procedure to verify the range is properly secured by the anti-tip bracket.

If your range has no anti-tip bracket, call 1.800.626.8774 to receive one at no cost.

This is the safety alert symbol. This symbol alerts you to potential hazards that can kill or hurt you and others. All safety messages will follow the safety alert symbol and the word “DANGER”, “WARNING”, or “CAUTION”. These words are defined as:

	Indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, will result in death or

	serious injury.

WARNING Indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in death or serious injury.

CAUTION Indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in minor or moderate injury.

Carefully remove all packaging, foam pads and tape.

To assure no damage is done to the finish of the product, the safest way to remove the adhesive from packaging tape on new appliances is an application of a household liquid dishwashing detergent. Apply with a soft cloth and allow to soak.

NOTE: The adhesive must be removed from all parts. It cannot be removed if it is baked on.

Electronic ignition & automatic reignition

Cooktop Controls

Professional All-Gas Range

The range is equipped with electronic ignition which eliminates the need for a standing pilot light.

The burners on this range will automatically relight if the flame goes out.

All surface burner igniters will spark and make clicking sounds when any burner is turned on. Do not touch any of the burners when igniters are clicking.

Occasionally the burners may spark if excess wind or a draft blows the flame away from the burner’s flame sensor.

The griddle and IR (infrared) grill are equipped with Glo-Bar igniters. The Glo-Bar remains energized whenever the griddle or IR grill is in use to ensure the burner always stays lit.

,Q FDVH RI D SRZHU RXWDJH you can light the surface burners on your cooktop with a match. Hold a lighted match to the burner, then turn the knob to the LOW position. 8VH H[WUHPH

Watch the flame, not the knob, as you increase or 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 will not result in faster heating and could be hazardous.

For surface stability, 6” minimum diameter cookware is recommended. Use larger diameter cookware for heat settings between

Occasionally, during grilling, grease drippings can ignite creating minor bursts of flame for a second or two. This is normal when grilling.

The grill radiant baffle is designed to catch excess grease, limiting flare-ups.

If a flare-up becomes excessive, remove the food from the grill and lower the heat setting until the flare-up subsides.

To further reduce flare-ups, trim excess fat around the edges of steaks and chops, use hamburger that is lean, remove the skin from poultry, etc.

Use a long spatula and a non-flammable mitt when turning food on the grill.

The intense heat caramelizes fats and juices creating authentic barbecued flavor. The IR grill will achieve the same results as an outdoor grill.

All gas grills cook differently. Adjust cooking times and methods when using the IR grill.

Clean the grill grate, grease trough and grease basin after each use. Remove the parts for cleaning after they are cool to the touch.

127( The grill will take approximately

45 seconds to ignite. Unlike the surface burners, which use electric igniters, the grill uses

a Glo-Bar for ignition. It takes approximately 45 seconds for the Glo-Bar to reach temperature. Gas is only supplied to the grill once the Glo-Bar reaches temperature.

If the griddle has not been used for a period of time, it should be reseasoned.

Clean the griddle thoroughly with hot, soapy water to remove any protective coating.

Wipe the surface using a solution of 1 quart water and 1 cup white vinegar. Dry thoroughly.

Use a paper towel and wipe 1 tablespoon vegetable oil evenly across the griddle. Do not use corn oil as it can get sticky.

Turn the control knob to 400°F for approximately 30 minutes. Turn the heat off when the oil starts to shimmer.

Repeat Step 3. Be sure to cover the entire surface with the oil.

Allow the griddle to cool. Wipe the entire surface of the griddle using a heavy cloth to remove the oil. The griddle is now ready to use.

The griddle surface is a combination of highly polished Type 304 stainless steel and an aluminum core plate for even heat distribution. It is normal for it to darken with use as oils cook onto the surface to provide a stick-resistant base or “seasoning.”

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.

Baking pans/sheets

Use the proper baking pan. The type of finish on the pan effects 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 or sheet.

Introduction to convection cooking

Convection Baking or Roasting

Professional All-Gas Range

The Monogram reverse-air convection system consists of two dedicated heating elements wrapped around the convection fan. After preheating to the set temperature, all heat

in CONV BAKE mode comes from these two dedicated elements. The convection fan periodically pauses, then changes direction to best distribute hot air throughout the oven. As a result, foods are evenly cooked and

EURZQHG³RIWHQ LQ OHVV WLPH ZLWK FRQYHFWLRQ KHDW

127( The convection fan shuts off when the oven door is opened.

Cookware for convection cooking

Before using your convection oven, check to see if your cookware leaves room for air

circulation in the oven. If you are baking with several pans, leave space between them. Also, be sure the pans do not touch each other or the walls of the oven.

Cookware used in standard BAKE will also work in CONV BAKE. See Baking Tips section.

It is recommended that when baking cookies, the best results are attained with a flat cookie sheet instead of a pan with sides. For recipes like ovenbaked chicken, use a pan with low sides. Hot air cannot circulate well around food in a pan with high sides.

Adapting recipes

You can use your favorite recipes in the convection oven.

When convection baking, it may be necessary to reduce the baking temperature by 25°F or to adjust the cooking time. No temperature adjustment is necessary when using CONV ROAST.

Some package instructions for frozen casseroles or main dishes have been developed using commercial convection ovens. For best results in this oven, preheat the oven and use the temperature on the package.

Convection roasting tips

Use the broiler pan, grid and the roasting rack for best results. Use of the rack will result in improved browning on the underside of meat or poultry.

Place the oven rack on a low rack position (A).
