After Lighting a Burner

● After the burner ignites, turn the knob to adjust the

flame size.

● Check to be sure the burner you turned on is the one

you want to use.

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.

●

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.

● Be sure the burners and grates are cool before you

place your hand, a pot holder, cleaning cloths or other materials on them.

Before Using Your Oven

Be sure you understand how to set the controls properly. Practice removing and replacing the shelves while the oven is cool. Read the information and tips on the following pages. Keep this guide handy where you can refer to it, especially during the first weeks of using your new range.

Electric Ignition

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

To light either burner, turn the OVEN SET knob to

the desired oven operation and the OVEN TEMP knob to the desired temperature. The burner should ignite within 30-90 seconds.

After the oven reaches the selected temperature, the oven 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 when placed correctly on the shelf supports, they stop before coming completely out of the oven and will not tilt when you are removing food from them or placing food on them.

When placing cookware on a shelf, pull the shelf out

to the bump on the shelf support. Place the cookware on the shelf, then slide the shelf back into the oven. This will eliminate reaching into the hot oven.

To remove a shelf from the oven, pull it toward you, tilt the front end upward and pull the shelf out.

To replace, place the shelf on the shelf support with the stop-locks (curved extension of the up and toward the rear of the oven.

Shelf Positions

The oven has five shelf supports for baking, roasting and broiling identified in this illustration as A (bottom), B, C, D and E (top). It also has a special low shelf position (R) for roasting extra large items, such as a large turkey—the shelf is not designed to slide out at this position. Shelf positions for cooking are suggested in the Baking, Roasting and Broiling sections.

BAmNG

Do not lock the oven door with the latch during baking. The latch is used for self-cleaning only.

Your oven temperature is controlled very accurately using an oven control system. It is recommended that you operate the oven for a number of weeks to become familiar with your new oven’s performance.

● Glass baking dishes also absorb heat. When baking

in glass baking dishes, the temperature may need to be reduced by

25°F.

Don’t Peek

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 30-40 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 also be affected.

Roasting is really a baking procedure 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.

Most meats continue to cook slightly while standing after being removed from the oven. Recommended standing time for roasts 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°F.

2. Check the weight of the roast. Place the meat fat-side-up or the poultry breast-side-up on the

roasting rack in a shallow pan. The melting fat will

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

Dual Shelf Cooking

This allows more than one food to be cooked at the same time. For example: While roasting a 20-lb. turkey on shelf position R, a second shelf (if so equipped) may be added on position D so that scalloped potatoes can be cooked at the same time.

Calculate the total cooking time to enable both dishes to complete cooking at the same time. Allow 15-20 minutes of additional cooking time for the potatoes.

Use of Aluminum Foil

You can use aluminum foil to line 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.

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 Roasting Guide. For roasts over 8 lbs., check with thermometer at

half-

hour intervals after half the time has passed.

Q. Why is my roast crumbling when

try to

carve it?

A. Roasts are easier to slice if allowed to cool 10 to

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

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.

BROILmG

Do not lock the oven door with the latch during

broiling. The latch is used for self-cleaning only.

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 fat may be trimmed, leaving a layer about 1/8” thick.

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

which comes with the range. Always use the rack so fat drips into the broiler pan; otherwise the juices may become hot enough to catch fire.

3. Position the shelf on the recommended shelf

position as suggested in Broiling Guide.

Turn the food only once

during cooking. 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.

4. Close the oven door but do not latch it. If the door latch is moved to the right during a broil operation the door may lock and you may not be

able

to open it until the oven cools.

5. Turn the OVEN SET knob and the OVEN knob to BROIL.

6. When broiling is finished, turn OVEN

to OFF. Remove the broiler pan from the range and

serve food immediately. Leave the pan outside the

range to cool.

Questions and Answers

Q. When broiling, is it necessary to always use 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.

Should

A. No. Salt draws out the juices and allows them to

evaporate. Always salt after cooking. Turn the meat with tongs; piercing the meat with a fork also allows juices to escape. When broiling poultry or fish, brush each side often with butter.

I salt the meat before broiling?

Q. Why are my meats not turning out as brown as

they should?

A. Check to see if you are using the recommended

shelf position. Broil for the longest period of time indicated in the Broiling Guide. Turn the food only once during broiling.

(c<]ntinued

The oven door must be closed during broiling.

● Always use the broiler pan and rack that comes with

your range. It is designed to minimize smoking and spattering by trapping juices in the shielded lower part of the pan.

● For steaks and chops, slash the fat evenly around the

outside edges of the meat. 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.

Questions and Answers

Q. Why won’t my oven clean immediately even

though I set all the time and clean dials correctly?

A. Check to be sure your DELAY START dial is set

to the same time as the range clock. Also check to be sure the latch handle is moved to the right.

Q. If my range clock is not set to the correct time

of day, can I still self-clean my oven?

A. No.

Your Automatic Oven Timer uses the range

clock to help start and stop your self-cleaning cycle.

Q. Can I use commercial oven cleaners on any part

of my self-cleaning oven?

A. No cleaners or coatings should be used around

any part of this oven. If you do use them and do not thoroughly rinse the oven with water, wiping it absolutely clean afterward, the residue can scar the oven surface and damage metal parts the next time the oven is automatically cleaned.

Q. Can

I clean the woven gasket around the oven door?

A. No, this gasket is essential for a good oven seal,

and care must be taken not to rub, damage or move this gasket.

Q. What should I do if excessive smoking occurs

during cleaning?

This is caused by excessive soil, and you should

turn the OVEN windows to rid the room of smoke. Allow the oven to cool for at least one hour before opening the door. Wipe up the excess soil and reset the clean cycle.

Q. Is the “crackling” or “popping” sound I hear

during cleaning normal?

A. Yes. This is the metal heating and cooling during

both the cooking and cleaning functions.

Q. Should there be any odor during the cleaning?

A. Yes, there will be a slight odor during the first few

cleanings. Failure to wipe out excessive soil might also cause an odor when cleaning.

Q. What causes the hair-like lines on the enamel

surface of my oven?

A. This is a normal condition resulting from heating

and cooling during cleaning. They do not affect how your oven performs.

Why do I have ash left in my oven after cleaning?

Some types of soil will leave a deposit, which is

ash. It can be removed with a damp sponge or cloth.

Q. My oven shelves do not slide easily. What is

the matter?

A. After many cleanings, the oven shelves will lose

their luster and become hard to slide. To make the shelves slide more easily, wipe the shelf supports with cooking oil.

Burner Grates

Lift out when cool. Grates should be washed regularly and, of course, after spillovers. Wash them in hot,

soapy water and rinse with clean water. After cleaning, dry them thoroughly by putting them in a warm oven for a few minutes. Don’t put the grates back on the range while they are wet. When replacing the grates, be sure they’re positioned securely over the burners.

To prevent rusting on cast iron grates, apply a light coating of cooking oil on the bottom of the grates.

To get rid of burned-on food, place the grates in a covered container (or plastic bag) with 1/4 cup ammonia to loosen the soil. Then scrub with a soap-filled scouring pad if necessary.

CLEANING

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.

Oven Bottom

The oven bottom has a porcelain enamel finish.

To make cleaning easier, protect the oven bottom

from excessive spillovers by placing a cookie sheet

on the shelf below the shelf you are cooking on. You

can use aluminum foil if you do not cover the whole

shelf. This is particularly important when baking a

fruit pie or other foods with a high acid content.

Hot fruit fillings or other foods that are highly acidic

(such as milk, tomatoes or sauerkraut, and sauces with

vinegar or lemon juice) may cause pitting and damage

to the porcelain enamel surface and should be wiped

up immediately.

To clean up spillovers, use soap and water, an

abrasive cleaner or scouring pad. Rinse well to

remove any soap before self-cleaning.

Lift-Off Oven Door

The oven door is removable,

but it is heavy. You may need help removing and replacing 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 and off the hinges.

NOTE: Be careful not to place hands between the oven door frame as pinch fingers.

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 door slowly and time. If the hinges snap back against the oven frame, pull them back out.

TO CLEAN THE DOOR: (Do not immerse the door in water.)

Inside of the door:

● Because the area inside the gasket is cleaned during

the self clean cycle, you do not need to 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

Connect THE RANGE TO GAS

Shut off the main gas supply valve before disconnecting the old range and leave it off until

new hook-up has been completed. Don’t forget to relight the pilot on other gas appliances when you turn the gas back on.

Because hard piping restricts movement of the range, the use of an A. G.A.-certified flexible metal appliance connector is recommended unless local codes require a hard-piped connection. Never use an old connector when installing a new range. If the hard piping method is used, you must carefully align the pipe; the range cannot be moved after the connection is made.

To prevent gas leaks, put pipe joint compound

on, or wrap pipe thread tape with Teflon* around, all male (external) pipe threads.
