IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
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.
• The fiberglass insulation in self-clean ovens
gives off a very small amount of carbon
monoxide during the cleaning cycle.
Exposure can be minimized by venting
with an open window or using a ventilation
fan or hood.
• 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.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
When using your appliance, follow basic safety
precautions, including the following:
• Have the installer show you the location of
the range gas cut-off valve and how to shut it
off if necessary.
• Be sure all packing materials are removed
from the range before operating it to prevent
fire or smoke damage should the packing
material ignite.
• After prolonged use of a range, high floor
temperatures may result and many floor
coverings will not withstand this kind of use.
Never install the range over vinyl tile or
linoleum that cannot withstand such use.
Never install it directly over interior kitchen
carpeting.
• Be sure your range is correctly adjusted
by a qualified service technician or installer
for the type of gas (natural or LP) that is
to be used.
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.
WARNING—
All ranges can tip and injury
could result. To prevent
accidental tipping of the range,
attach it to the wall by installing
the Anti-Tip device supplied.
To check if the device is installed
and engaged properly, carefully
tip the range forward. The AntiTip device should engage and
prevent the range from tipping
over.
If you pull the range out from the wall for
any reason, make sure the device is properly
engaged when you push the range back against
the wall.
If it is not, there is a possible risk of the range
tipping over and causing injury if you or a child
stand, sit or lean on an open door.
Please refer to the Anti-Tip information in the
installation instructions.
Failure to take this precaution could result in
tipping of the range and injury.
• Locate the range out of kitchen traffic path
and out of drafty locations and areas with
poor air circulation.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
• Use this appliance only for its intended use as
described in this manual.
• Be sure your appliance is properly installed
and grounded by a qualified technician in
accordance with the provided installation
instructions.
• Do not attempt to repair or replace any
part of your range unless it is specifically
recommended in this manual. All other
servicing should be referred to a qualified
technician.
• Before performing any service,
DISCONNECT THE RANGE POWER
SUPPLY AT THE HOUSEHOLD
DISTRIBUTION PANEL BY REMOVING
THE FUSE OR SWITCHING OFF THE
CIRCUIT BREAKER.
• Do not leave children alone—children should
not be left alone or unattended in an area
where an appliance is in use. They should
never be allowed to sit or stand on any part
of the appliance.
• Do not allow anyone to climb, stand or hang
on the door, kick panel, drip tray handle,
or cooktop. They could damage the range
and even tip it over, causing severe personal
injury.
• Do not store flammable materials in the oven
or near the cooktop.
• CAUTION: ITEMS OF INTEREST TO
CHILDREN SHOULD NOT BE STORED IN
CABINETS ABOVE A RANGE OR ON THE
BACKSPLASH OF A RANGE—CHILDREN
CLIMBING ON THE RANGE TO REACH
ITEMS COULD BE SERIOUSLY INJURED.
• For your safety, never use your appliance for
warming or heating the room.
• Never wear loose-fitting or hanging garments
while using the appliance. Be careful when
reaching for items stored over the range.
Flammable material could be ignited if
brought in contact with surface burners,
burner grates or oven heating elements
and may cause severe burns.
• Use only dry pot holders—moist or damp pot
holders on hot surfaces may result in burns
from steam. Do not let pot holders touch
surface burners, burner grates or oven
heating elements. Do not use a towel or
other bulky cloth.
• When surface cooking, do not touch the
surface burners, burner grates or the
surrounding areas.
When using the oven, do not touch the oven
heating elements, the interior surface of the
oven or the exterior area immediately
surrounding the door or back trim.
These surfaces may be hot enough to burn.
During and after use, do not touch, or let
clothing or other flammable materials
contact, the surface burners, areas near the
surface burners, or any interior area of the
oven; allow sufficient time for cooling first.
Potentially hot surfaces include the cooktop,
areas facing the cooktop, oven vent opening,
surfaces near the opening, crevices around
the oven door, the drip tray handle directly
above the oven door and metal trim parts
above the door.
The drip tray gets hot when the oven is on.
Do not remove the drip tray until it is cool.
CAUTION: The inside surface of the oven
may be hot when the door is opened.
• Do not store plastic, flammable liquids or
combustible materials on top of the optional
high shelf.
• Keep the ventilator hood and grease filters
clean to maintain good venting and to avoid
grease fires. Turn the ventilator OFF in case
of fire or when intentionally “flaming” liquor
or other spirits on the cooktop. The blower,
if in operation, could spread the flames.
• DO NOT obstruct the flow of combustion or
ventilation air to the appliance. Be sure a
fresh air supply is available.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
6
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
• Do not use water on grease fires. Never pick up
a flaming pan. Turn the controls off. Smother a
flaming pan on a surface unit by covering the
pan completely with a well-fitting lid, cookie
sheet or flat tray. Use a multi-purpose dry
chemical or foam-type fire extinguisher.
Flaming grease outside a pan can be put out by
covering it with baking soda or, if available, by
using a multi-purpose dry chemical or foamtype fire extinguisher.
Flame in the oven can be smothered
completely by closing the oven door and
turning the oven off or by using a multipurpose dry chemical or foam-type fire
extinguisher.
• 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 range.
Clean the drip tray after every use.
• If you smell gas, the installer has not done a
proper job of checking for leaks. You can have
a small leak and therefore a faint gas smell if
the connections are not completely tight.
Finding a gas leak is NOT a do-it-yourself
procedure. Some leaks can only be found with
the burner control in the ON position and for
your protection it must be done by a qualified
service technician. Never use an open flame to
locate a leak.
• If by some chance a burner goes out and gas
escapes, open a window or a door to let the
room air out. Do not attempt to use the
appliance until the gas has had time to
dissipate. Follow the instructions in What to do
if You Smell Gas.
• Do not use aluminum foil to line any part of the
oven or cooktop. Using a foil liner could result
in a fire hazard or the obstruction of the flow of
combustion and ventilation air. Foil is an
excellent heat insulator and heat will be
trapped underneath it. This trapped heat can
upset the cooking performance and can
damage the finish of the oven or the cooktop.
• Cook meat and poultry thoroughly—meat
to at least an INTERNAL temperature of
160°F. and poultry to at least an INTERNAL
temperature of 180°F. Cooking to these
temperatures usually protects against
foodborne illness.
SURFACE COOKING
• Do not heat unopened food containers; a
build-up of pressure may cause the container
to burst.
• Set the burner control so that the flame heats
only the bottom of the pan and does not extend
beyond the bottom of the pan. Excessive flame
is hazardous. The high BTU burners can easily
melt cookware handles.
• Hold the handle of the pan, using a dry pot
holder, to prevent movement of the utensil
when stirring or turning food.
• Always heat fat slowly, and watch as it heats.
• Always use the LITE position when igniting the
surface burners and make sure the burners
have ignited, including the center simmer
flame.
• 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 holder.
• Never leave the surface burners unattended at
high flame settings. Boilovers cause smoking
and greasy spillovers that may catch on fire. If
the burner flames are smothered by a severe
boilover which affects the ignitor, unburned
gas will escape into the room.
7
SURFACE COOKING
• To minimize the possibility of burns, ignition
of flammable materials and spillage, turn
cookware handles toward the side or back of
the range without extending over adjacent
burners.
• Never block the vents (air openings) of the
range. They provide the air inlet and outlet that
are necessary for the range to operate properly
with correct combustion. Air openings are
located at the top and bottom of the oven door,
drip tray, drip tray handle area, vent area, and
area immediately surrounding the top burners
(burner pans).
• Always turn the surface burners to OFF before
removing cookware.
• Carefully watch foods being fried at a high
flame setting.
• 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.
• Use the least possible amount of fat for
effective shallow or deep fat frying. Filling the
pan too full of fat can cause spillovers when
food is added.
• 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.
• When using glass cookware, make sure it is
designed for top-of-range cooking.
• If a combination of oils or fats will be used in
frying, stir together before heating or as fats
melt slowly.
• Use proper pan size—avoid pans that are
unstable or easily tipped. Select cookware
having flat bottoms large enough to properly
contain food and avoid boilovers and spillovers
and large enough to cover burner grate. This
will both save cleaning time and prevent
hazardous accumulations of food, since heavy
spattering or spillovers left on the range can
ignite. Use pans with handles that can be easily
grasped and remain cool.
• Do not leave any items on the cooktop. The hot
air from the vent may ignite flammable items
and will increase pressure in closed containers,
which may cause them to burst.
• Keep all plastics away from the top burners.
• Do not leave plastic items on the cooktop—they
may melt if left too close to the vent.
• To avoid the possibility of a burn, always be
certain that the controls for all burners are at
the OFF position and all grates are cool before
attempting to remove them.
• When preparing flaming foods under the vent
hood, turn the fan on.
• Grease is flammable. Let hot grease cool
before attempting to handle it. Avoid letting
grease deposits collect in the container under
the cooktop burners. Clean these areas after
each use or boilover.
• For proper lighting and performance of the
cooktop burners, keep the burner ports clean.
It may be necessary to clean these when there is
a boilover or when the burner does not light,
even though the electronic ignitors click.
• After cleaning, it is important to make sure
the outer cap/burner port is properly aligned
with the burner base. Incorrect alignment will
produce poor burner performance. Never
operate the burner without all burner parts
in place.
• Clean the cooktop with caution. Avoid steam
burns; do not use a wet sponge or cloth to clean
the cooktop while it is hot. Some cleaners
produce noxious fumes if applied to a hot
surface. Follow manufacturer’s directions.
• If range is located near a window, do not hang
long curtains that could blow over the surface
burners and create a fire hazard.
• Be sure all the range and/or cooktop controls
are turned off and the appliance is cool before
using any type of aerosol cleaner or cooking
spray on or around the appliance. The
chemical that produces the spraying action
could, in the presence of heat, ignite or cause
metal parts to corrode.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

OVEN
• Stand away from the range when opening the
oven door. Hot air or steam which escapes can
cause burns to hands, face and/or eyes.
• Never “open door broil” with children nearby.
They could quickly come into contact with a
hot oven interior surface, causing severe burns.
• Children in walkers, or children crawling, can
be attracted to the round oven door handle and
may grab and open the oven door. This can
result in injury from the door being pulled
open on a child, or severe burns if the oven is in
use and hot.
• Do not heat unopened food containers.
Pressure could build up and the container
could burst, causing an injury.
• Keep the oven vent unobstructed.
• Keep the oven free from grease buildup.
• Place the oven shelf in the desired position
while the oven is cool. If shelves must be
handled when hot, do not let pot holder
contact the heating elements.
• Pulling out the shelf to the shelf stop is a
convenience in lifting heavy foods. It is also a
precaution against burns from touching hot
surfaces of the door or 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 on fire.
• Do not use oven for a storage area. Items stored
in an oven can ignite.
• Do not leave paper products, cooking utensils
or food in the oven when not in use.
SELF-CLEANING OVEN
• Do not clean the door gasket. The door gasket
is essential for a good seal. Care should be
taken not to rub, damage or move the gasket.
• Do not use oven cleaners. No commercial oven
cleaner or oven liner protective coating 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 selfclean cycle is used.
• Clean only parts listed in this Owner’s Manual.
• Before self-cleaning the oven, remove the oven
shelves, oven shelf slide assemblies, broiler
pan, grid and other cookware.
• Be sure to wipe up excess spillage before
starting the self-cleaning operation.
• If the self-cleaning mode malfunctions, turn
the oven off and disconnect the power supply.
Have it serviced by a qualified technician.
