IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING
YOUR OVEN
,, Use Care When Opening an Oven DooriStand to the
side of the appliance when opening the door of a hot
oven. Let hot air or steam escape before you remove or
replace food in the oven.
,, Keep Oven Vent Ducts Unobstructed. The wall oven is
vented at the upper control panel or at the center trim de-
pending of the model. Touching the surfaces in this area
when the wall oven is operating may cause severe burns.
Also, do not place plastic or heat-sensitive items near the
oven vent. These items could melt or ignite.
NEVER cover any slots, holes or pas-
sages in the oven bottom or cover an entire rack with
materials such as aluminum foil. Doing so blocks air flow
through the oven and may cause carbon monoxide poi-
soning. Aluminum foil linings may trap heat, causing a fire
hazard.
Placement of Oven Racks. Always place oven racks in
desired location while oven is cool. Remove all utensils
from the rack before removing rack. If rack must be moved
while oven is hot, use extreme caution. Use pot holders
and grasp the rack with both hands to reposition. Do not
let pot holders contact the hot oven element or interior of
the oven.
= Do not use your broiler par=without its insert. The
broiler pan and grid allow dripping fat to drain and be
kept away from the high heat of the broiler.
= Do not cover the broiler grid or oven bottom with
aluminum foil. Exposed fat and grease could ignite.
= Do not touch a hot oven light bulb with a damp cloth.
Doing so could cause the bulb to break. Disconnect the
appliance or shut off the power to the appliance before
removing and replacing the bulb.
,, Protective linersiDo not use aluminum foil to line the
oven bottom. Only use aluminum foil as recommended
in this manual. Improper installation of these liners may
result in risk of electric shock, or fire.
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR CLEANING
YOUR OVEN
,, Clean the appliance regularly to keep all parts free
of grease that could catch fire. Exhaust fan ventilation
hoods and grease filters should be kept clean. Do not
allow grease to accumulate. Greasy deposits in the
fan could catch fire. Refer to the hood manufacturer's
instructions for cleaning.
• Cleaners/AerosolsiAIways follow the manufacturer's
recommended directions for use. Be aware that excess
residue from cleaners and aerosols may ignite causing
damage and/or injury.
SELF-CLEANING OVEN MODELS
• Clean in the self=cleaning cycle only the parts of the
appliance listed in this Owner's Guide. Before using the
self-cleaning cycle of the appliance, remove all utensils
stored in the appliance.
• Do not clean the oven 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 oven cleaner or oven liner
protective coating of any kind should be used in or around
any part of the appliance

Grounding instructions (electric gn t onmode son y)
iMPORTANT: READ AND SAVE THESE iNSTRUCTiONS.
This appliance is equipped with a 3-prong grounding plug
for your protection against shock hazard and should be plugged directly
into a properly grounded receptacle. DO NOT cut or remove the ground-
ing prong from this plug.
For personal safety, this oven must be properly grounded. For maximum
safety, the power cord must be plugged into a 120V--60 Hz. outlet that is
correctly polarized and properly grounded.
If a two-prong wall receptacle is the only available outlet, it is the per-
sonal responsibility of the consumer to have it replaced with a properly
grounded three-prong wall receptacle installed by a qualified electrician.
Do not under any circumstances cut or remove the third round
grounding prong from the power cord plug. See the installation instruc-
tions packaged with this oven for complete installation and grounding
instructions. Do not operate the oven using a two-prong adapter or an

Oven ignition
When you turn the oven on, the glow bar igniter begins to heat. When the lighter is hot enough, in less than 1 minute, the
gas flows into the burner and is ignited.
ii
The igniter glows bright orange when hot. It cycles on and off with the thermostat and will glow whenever the burner is on.
Do not attempt to light the oven burners during a power failure. The oven burner valves will not open
up and will prevent the gas from flowing through the burner valves to the burners. In the event of a power failure, turn the
Temperature Control knob to OFR When power resumes, turn the Temperature Control knob back to desired tempera-
ture.
Conversion to Liquefied Petroleum Gas (or L. P. Gas)
This natural gas range is designed to allow for conversion to Liquefied Petroleum (L. P.) Gas.
Only a qualified service agent should perform the L. R conversion. Contact the local gas provider for conversion. An L.
R Conversion Kit is supplied with this range and is located on the main back of the range. The kit contains installation
instructions which must be read before and followed carefully when installing the kit.
To avoid serious injury, any additions, changes or conversions required in order for this appliance to
satisfactorily meet the application needs must be made by a qualified service agent.

Oven Vent Location
The oven is vented through the upper control panel trim. When the oven is on, warm
air is released through the vent. This venting is necessary for proper air circulation in
the oven and good baking results.
Arranging Oven Racks
ALWAYS ARRANGE OVEN RACKS WHEN THE OVEN !S COOL (PRIOR TO
OPERATING THE OVEN), Always use oven mitts when using the oven.
To remove an oven rack, pull the rack forward until it stops. Lift up front of rack and
slide out.
To replace an oven rack, fit the rack onto the guides on the oven walls. Tilt the front of
the rack upward and slide the rack back into place.
iiil..................
Air Circulation in the Oven
If using 1 rack, place in center of oven. If using multiple racks, stagger
cookware as shown.
For best air circulation and baking results allow 2-4" (5-10cm) around the
cookware for proper air circulation and be sure pans and cookware do not
touch each other, the oven door, sides or back of the oven cavity. The hot air
must circulate around the pans and cookware in the oven for even heat to
reach around the food.
