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.

Gas appliances 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

When You Get Your Range

• Have the installer show you the location of the range gas shut-off valve and how to shut it off if necessary.

Locate the range out of kitchen traffic path and out of drafty locations to prevent poor air

circulation. After prolonged use of a range, high floor

temperatures may result and many floor coverings will not withstand this kind of use. Never instatl the

range over vinyl tile or linoleum that cannot withstand such type of use Never install it directly over interior kitchen carpeting°

Be sure your range is correctly adjusted by a

qualified installer for the type of gas (natural or

LP), that is to be used. Your range can be converted

for use with either type of gas. See the Installation

Instructions°

WARNING: Theconversiooofyour

range to LP gas must be made by a qualified LP

installer in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions and all codes and requirements of the

authority having jufisdiction. Failure to follow these instructions could result in serious injury or property damage. The qualified agency performing this work assumes responsibility for the conversion.,

o Have your range installed and properly grounded

by a qualified installer in accordance with the Installation Instructions_ Any adjustment and service

should be performed only by qualified gas range

installers or service technicians. Plug your range into a 120-vott grounded outlet

only. Do not remove the round grounding prong from the plug.. If in doubt about the grounding of the home

electrical system, it is your personal responsibility and obligation to have an ungrounded outlet replaced with

a properly grounded, three-prong outlet in accordance with the National Electrical Code° In Canada, the appliance must be electrically grounded in accordance

with the Canadian Electrical Code., Do not use an extension cord with this appliance°

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 quatified technician.

WARNiNG

All ranges can tip and injury could

result. To prevent accidental tipping

of the range, attach it to the wall and

floor by installingthe Anti-Tip device supplied.

If the Anti-Tip device supplied with the range does not fit this application, use the universal Anti-Tip device

WB2X7909.. Call 1-800-4-MY-HOME ®, To check if the device is installed and

engaged properly, remove the storage drawer and inspect the rear leveling leg. Make sure it fits securely into the slot.

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 itis not, there is a

possible risk of the range tipping over and causing injury ifyou or a child stand, sit or lean on an open door. Please refer to the Anti-Tip device information in this manual. Failure to take this precaution could result in tipping

of the range and injury..

Using Your Range

° Do not leave children alone or unattended where a

range is hot or in operation, They could be seriously

burned.

• Do not allow anyone to climb, stand or hang on

the door, storage drawer or cooktop. They could

damage the range and even tip it over, causing severe personal injury_

• Let the burner grates and other surfaces cool before touching them or leaving them where

children can reach them.

CAUTION: ITEMS OF INTEREST TO CHILDREN SHOULD NOT BE STORED IN CABINETS ABOVE A

RANGE OR ON THE BACKSPLASH OF A RANGE m CHILDREN CLIMBING ON THE RANGE TO REACH

ITEMS COULD BE SERIOUSLY INJURED. Never wear loose-fitting or hanging garments

while using the appliance. Be careful when reaching

for items stored in cabinets over the cooktop_

Flammable material could be ignited if brought in contact with flames or hot oven surfaces and may

cause severe burns.

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 foam-type fire extinguisher=

Flame in the oven or storage drawer can be smothered completely by closing the oven door or drawer and turning the oven off or by using a multi-purpose dry chemical or foam-type fire extinguisher.

Do not store flammable materials in an oven, range storage drawer or near the cooktop.

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.

• Cook meat and poultry thoroughly--meat to at least an INTERNAL temperature of 160°F and poultry

to at teast an INTERNAL temperature of 180°E_ Cooking to these temperatures usually protects

against foodborne iltness.

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

o Large scratches or impacts to glass doors can

lead to broken or shattered glass.

Surface Cooking

• Always use the LITE position when igniting the top

burners and make sure the burners have ignited.

= Never leave the surface burners unattended at high

flame settings. Boilovers cause smoking and greasy

spiliovers that may catch on fire.

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

flame is hazardous°

• Use only dry pot holders--moist or damp pot holders on hot surfaces may result in burns from 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 holder.

• To minimize the possibility of burns, ignition of flammable materials and spillage, turn cookware

handles toward the side or back of the range without letting them extend over adjacent burners_

° Always turn the surface burners to 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 air inlet and outlet that are necessary for the range to operate properly with correct combustion_Air openings are located in the following

places:

--Oven vent at the rear of the cooktop.

--Air intake under the storage drawer_

--Air vent at the top of the oven door_

• Do not use a wok if the wok has a round metal ring that is placed over the burner grate to support the wok. This ring acts as 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 carbon monoxide level above that allowed by standards,

resulting in a health 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°

• 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,

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

melt slewly_

• Always heat fat slowly and watch 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

o When using glass cookware, make sure it is designed

for top-of-range cooking

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.

Do not leave any items on the cooktop_ VentappearanceandFocatienvary

The hot air from the vent may ignite flammable items and will increase pressure in closed containers, which may cause them to bursL

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 flaming foods are under the hood, turn the

fan off. The fan, if operating, may spread the flames. If the range is located near a window, do not hang

long curtains that could bFowover the top burners and create a fire hazard.

If you smell gas, turn off the gas to the range and call a qualified service technician. Never use an open flame

to locate a leak

• Use proper pan size. Avoid pans that are unstable or

easily tipped_ Select cookware having flat bottoms targe enough to properly contain food and avoid believers

and spiltovers and large enough to cover burner grates° This wilt 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 will remain cool

Baking, Broiling and Roasting

- 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 shelves 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 burns from touching hot

surfaces of the door or oven walls. The lowest

position is not designed to slide.

• Do not heat unopened food containers. Pressure could build up and the container could burst, causing an injury.

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

result in a fire hazard or damage to the range_

= Never use aluminum foil to line the oven bottom.

Improper use of foil could start a fire.

Self-Cleaning Oven

, Do not clean the door gaskeL 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 self-clean cycle is used

° Before self-cleaning the oven, remove the broiler pan,

broiler grid, all cookware and any aluminum foil from the oven_

o Oven shelves should be removed from the oven

before beginning the self-clean cycle.

• Be sure to wipe up excess spillage before starting the self-clean cycle.

• If the self-cleaning mode malfunctions, turn the

oven off and disconnect the power supply. Have

it serviced by a qualified technician

o Clean only parts listed in this Use and Care Guide. ° Keep the range clean and free of accumulations

of grease or spillovers, which may ignite.

o When using cooking or roasting bags in the oven,

follow the manufacturer's directions

• Use only glass cookware that is recommended for

use in gas ovens.

° Always remove broiler pan from the oven as soon

as you finish broiling. Grease teft in the pan can

catch on fire if oven is used without removing the grease from the broiler pan_

. When broiling, if meat is too close to the flame,

the fat may ignite. Trim excess fat to prevent excessive flare-ups.

• Make sure the broiler pan is in place correctly to reduce the possibility of grease fires,

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

fire until it burns out.

Lighting Instructions

Your surface burners are lighted by electronic ignition, eliminating the need for standing pilots with constantly

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

burners on your range with a match. Hold a lighted match to the burner, then turn the knob to the LITE position.. Use extreme caution when lighting burners in this

manner'.

Surface burners in use when an electrical power failure

occurs wilt continue to operate normally.

The electrode of the spark igniter is exposed, When one burner is turned to LITE, all the burners spark.

Do not disassemble or clean around any burner while another burner is on. An electric shock may result,

which could cause you to knock over hot cookwareo

Surface Burner Controls

The knobs that turn the surface burners on and off are

located on the lower control panel (front manifold panel) in front of the burners..

The two knobs on the left control the left front and left

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

To Light a Surface Burner

Push the control knob in and

turn it to LITE. You will hear a

little clicking noise--the sound

of the electric spark igniting the burner.

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

• Do not operate a burner for extended periods of time without having 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..

How to Select Flame Size

Watch the flame, not the knob, as you reduce heat_ When fast heating is desired, 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.

o The smaller burner (right rear position) wil! give

the best simmer results, tt offers precise cooking

performance for delicate foods, such as sauces or foods which need to cook over low heat for a tong

time_ It can be turned down to a very low simmer

setting.

o The right front burner is higher powered than the

others and wil! bring liquids to a boil quicker

(natural gas installations onty)o

Top-of-Range 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 cooking methods,

Glass: There are two types of glass cookware--those for oven use only and those for top-of-range cooking

(saucepans, coffee and teapots)+ Glass conducts heat

very slowly. Heatproof Glass Ceramic: Can be used for either

surface or oven cooking, It conducts heat very slowIy and cools very slowly. Check cookware manufacturer's

directions to be sure it can be used on gas ranges, Stainless Steel: This metal alone has poor heating

properties and is usually combined with copper, aluminum or other metals for improved heat distribution

Combination metal skillets generalty work satisfactorily if used at medium heat as the manufacturer recommends.

Wok This Way

We recommend that you

use a 14-inch or smaller

flat-bottomed wok. Make sure the wok bottom sits flat on the

grate. Only a flat-bottomed wok should be used, They are available at your local retail store+

Do not use a flat-bottomed wok on a support ring.

Placing the ring over the burner grate may cause the burner to work improperly, resulting in carbon monoxide

revels above allowable standards,,

This could be dangerous to your health_

Stove Top Grills

Do not use stove top grills

on your sealed gas burners,

If you use the stove top grill

on the sealed gas burner it will cause incomplete

combustion and can result in exposure to carbon

monoxide levels above allowable standards, This can be hazardous to your health,+

Before Using Your Oven

Oven Vents

Be sure you understand how to set the control properly.

Practice removing and replacing the shelves while the oven is cool Read the information and tips on the following pages. Keep this manual handy where you can

refer to it, especially during the first weeks of using your new r'ange_

Electronic Ignition

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

To light either burner, use the oven control to select BAKE or BROIL and set the desired temperature,. The

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

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

Power Outage CAUTION: Do not make any attempt to operate the

electronic ignition oven during an electrical power failure° The oven cannot be tit during a power failure,

Gas will not flow unless the glow bar is hoL

The oven is vented through duct openings at the rear of the cooktop. Do not block these openings when cooking

in the oven--it is important that the flow of hot air from

the oven and fresh air to the oven burners be uninterrupted.

• The vent openings and nearby surfaces may become hot° Do not touch them,

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

Do not leave plastic items on the

cooktop--they may

melt if left too close

to the vent.

Metal items will become

very hot if they are left on the cooktop and could

cause burns,

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 bursL

Vent appearance and

location vary

If the oven is in use when a power failure occurs, the oven burner shuts off and cannot be re-lit until power

is restored,

Oven Light Use the switch on the oven control to turn the oven light

on and off,

Oven Shelves

The shelves have stop-locks so, when

placed correctly on the shelf supports (A through

E), they will stop before coming completely out; they also will not tilto

When placing and removing cookware, pull the sheff out to

the bump on the shelf support.. To remove a shelf,

pull it toward you, tilt the front end up and _;

puFIit out..

To replace, place _

the end of the shelf (stop-locks) on the

support, tilt up the front -_ and push the shelf in.

NOTE: The shelf is not designed to slide out at the special low (R) shelf position..

---.....

Shelf Positions

The oven has five shelf supports for baking and

roasting--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 The shelf positions for

cooking are suggested in the

Baking, Roasting and Broiling

sections.

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.

q q

Baking

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. If you think an adjustment is necessary, see the Adjust the Oven

Thermostat section,,

How to Set Your Range for Baking

To avoid possible burns, place the shelves in the

correct position before you turn the oven on.

1o Press the BAKE pad

2. Press the A or V pads until the desired temperature is displayed_

3. Press the START pad1,

The oven will start automatically. The display will show

PRE while preheating° When the oven reaches the selected temperature, the oven control will beep several

times and the display will show the oven temperature. To change the oven temperature during BAKE cycle,

press the BAKE pad and then the ,L orV pads to get

the new temperature.,

4. Check food for doneness at minimum time on recipe. Cook longer if necessary,,

5. Press the STOPtCLEAR pad when baking is finished and then remove the food from the oven°

Oven Shelves

Arrange the oven shelf or shelves in the

desired locations while the oven is coot. The

correct shelf position depends on the kind of food and the browning desired. As a general rule, place most foods

in the middle of the oven, on either shelf position B or C_See the following

chart for suggested shelf positions

Preheating

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,,

Preheating is necessary for good results when baking

cakes, cookies, pastry and breads° For most casseroles and roasts, preheating is not necessary For ovens without a preheat indicator light or tone, preheat 10 minutes. After

the oven is preheated place the food in the oven as quickly as possible to prevent heat from escaping.

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 crusts 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..

Aluminum Foil

Never cover the oven bottom with aluminum foil. 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 iower shelf several inches

below the food,

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_

o Glass baking dishes also absorb heat. When baking in

glass baking dishes, the temperature may need to be

reduced by 25°F (13°C).

• If you are using dark non-stick pans, you may find that you need to reduce the oven temperature 25°F (13°0) to prevent over-browning.

Pan Placement

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.

Pans should not touch each other or the walls of the

oven. Allow 1- to 11A-inch (2.5- to 4-cm) space 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.

Adjust the Oven Thermostat--

Do It Yourself t

You may feel 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 cooking too hot or too

cold, you can adjust the thermostat yourself. If you

think it is too hot, adjust the thermostat to make it cooler_

If you think it is too cool, adjust the thermostat to make

it hotter We do not recommend the use of thermometers,

such as those found in grocery stores, to check the temperature setting of your new oven, These

thermometers may vary 20-40°F (11-22°C)

To Adjust the Thermostat:

Press the BAKE and BROIL HI/LO pads at the same time for

2 seconds until the display shows

The Type of Margarine Will Affect

Baking Performance

Most recipes for baking have been developed

using high fat products such as butter or margarine (80% fat). If you decrease the fat, the recipe may not

give the same results as with a higher fat producL 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 standards require products labeled "margarine" to contain at least 80% fat by weighL Low fat spreads, on the other hand, contain tess fat and more water The high

moisture content of these spreads affects the texture and flavor of baked goods. For best results with your old favorite recipes, use margarine, butter or stick spreads containing at least 70% vegetable oil

NOTE: This adjustment will not affect the broiling or

self-cleaning temperatures It will be retained in memory

after a power failure.

Roasting

Do not lock the oven door with the latch during

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

Roasting is cooking by dry heat_ Tender meat or poultry can be roasted uncovered in your oven.. Roasting temperatures, which should be low and steady, keep spattering to a minimum.

The oven has a special low shelf position (R) just above

the oven bottom. Use it when extra cooking space

is needed, for example, when roasting a large turkey° The shelf is not designed to slide out at this position.

Roasting is really a baking procedure used for meats. Therefore, the oven controls are set for Baking.

(You may hear a slight clicking sound indicating the oven is working properly.)

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 the roasts to firm up and makes them easier to carver The internal

temperature will rise about 5° to t0°F (3° to 6°C), If you wish to compensate for the temperature rise, remove the

roast from the oven when its internal temperature is 5° to

10°F (3° to 6°C) less than the temperature shown in the

Roasting Guide,

Remember that food will continue to cook in the hot oven, even after it has been turned off, and should be removed

when the desired internal temperature has been reached,.

3. Press the BAKE pad..

4. Press the A or V pads until the desired temperature

is displayed.

5. Press the START pad. The oven will start automatically. The display will show PRE

whiIe preheating When the oven reaches the selected temperature, the oven control wil! beep several times and the display will show the oven temperature

To change the oven temperature during BAKE cycle, press the BAKE pad and then the ,_ or V pads to get the new temperature

6, Check food for doneness at minimum time on recipe.

Cook longer if necessary.

7. Press the STOP/CLEAR pad when baking is finished and then remove the food from the oven.

Dual Shelf Cooking

This allows more than one food to be cooked at the same time. For example: While roasting a 20-1bo(10 kg) turkey

on shelf position R, a second shelf (if so equipped) may be added on position D so that an additional food such as scalloped potatoes can be cooked at the same time. Foods cooked with the turkey should be added toward the end of the time allowed for the turkey° For example, potatoes which cook for 1 hour should be added to the oven 1 hour before the end of cooking time for the turkey.

Frozen Roasts

Frozen roasts of beef, pork, lamb, etc.,, can be started without thawing, but allow 15 to 25 minutes per pound

(450 grams) additional time (15 minutes per pound for roasts under 5 pounds [2,3 kg], more time for

larger roasts).

position B for small

1. Position oven shelf at

size roast (3 to 5 lbs. [1,3 to 243 kg]) and at L

position R for larger roasts. _-'-_

2. Check the weight of the meat. Place the meat

fat-side-up or the poultry breast-side-up on roasting grid in a shallow pan,.The melting fat will baste the

meat. Select a pan as close to the size of the meat as possible. (The broiler pan with grid is a good pan

for this.)

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

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/

It is recommended that meat be cooked to at least an INTERNAL temperature of 160°F (71°C) and poultry to

at least an INTERNAL temperature of 180°F (82°C) Cooking to these temperatures usually protects against

foodbome illness.

The oven door should be closed during broiling.

Turn the food only once

duringcooking_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.

Use of Aluminum Foil

You can use aluminum foil to Iine your broiler pan and

broiler grid. However, you must mold the foil tightly to the grid and cut slits in it

just like the grid..

Without the slits, the foil will prevent fat and meat

juices from draining to 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.

1. If the meat has fat or gristle around the edge, cut vertical slashes through both about 2" (5 cm) apart. If desired, the fat may be trimmed, leaving a layer about 1/8"(3 mm) thick.

2. Place the meat on the broiler grid in the broiler pan which comes with the range. Always use the grid so fat

drips into the broiler pan; otherwise the juices may become hot enough to catch fire.

3. Position the shelf on the recommended shetf position as suggested in Broiling Guide.

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. Press the BROIL HIILO pad once for HI Broil° To change to LO Broil, press the BROIL HIP,-Opad

again°

6. Press the START pad.

7. When broiling is finished, press the STOP/CLEAR pad.

Serve the food immediately, and leave the pan outside the oven to cool during the meat for easiest cleaning

Use LO Broil to cook foods such as poultry or thick cuts of meat thoroughly without over-browning them.

Broiling Guide

The oven door must be closed during broiling.

° Always use the broiler pan and grid that comes with

your range, it is designed to minimize smoking and spattering by trapping juices in the shielded lower pat1 of the pan.

• For steaks and chops, slash fat evenly around outside edges of meat. To slash, cut crosswise through outer fat

surface just to the edge of the meat.. Use tongs to turn meat over to prevent piercing the meat and losing juices..

° If desired, marinate meats or chicken before broiling.

Or brush with barbecue sauce last 5 to t0 minutes ontyo

° When arranging food on the pan, do not let fatty edges

hang over the sides because dripping fat could soil the oven

- The even does not need to be preheate& However, for very thin foods, or to increase browning, preheat if desired.

• Frozen steaks can be broiled by positioning the broiler pan and grid at next lowest shelf position and

increasing cooking time given in this guide 11/2times per sider

The size, weight,

thickness, starting

temperature and your preference of doneness will affect broiling times This guide is based on

meats at refrigerator temperature

Normal Cleaning Time: 4 hours and 20 minutes Before a Clean Cycle

We recommend venting with an open window or using a ventilation fan or hood during the first self-clean cycle.

1. Remove the shelves, broiler pan, broiler grid, all cookware and any aluminum foil from the oven--they cannot withstand the high cleaning temperatures..

2, Wipe up heavy soil on the oven bottom_ If you use

soap, rinse thoroughly before self-cleaning to prevent staining.

Do not use abrasives or oven cleaners. Clean the

top, sides and outside front of the oven door with soap

and water, Make sure the oven light bulb cover is in place.

Do not rub or clean the door gasket--the fiberglass

material of the gasket has an extremely low resistance to abrasion.. An intact, well-fitting 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..

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.

CAUTION: The grates and drip pans should never

be cleaned in the self-cleaning oven_

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 temperatures may damage the porcelain

finish of the oven,

IMPORTANT: The health of some birds is extremely sensitive to the fumes given off during the Self-Cleaning cycle of any range,,Move birds to another well-ventilated

room,.

3. Clean spatters or soil on the oven front frame and the oven door outside the gasket with a dampened

cloth. The oven front frame and the oven door outside the gasket do not get cleaned by the self-clean cycle..

On these areas, use detergent and hot water or a soap-filled pad Rinse well with a vinegar and water solution. This will help prevent a brown residue from forming when the oven is heated. Buff these areas with a dry cloth Do not clean the gasket°
