important Safety instructions
• DO NOTTOUCH SURFACE BURNERS, AREAS NEAR
THESE BURNERS, OVEN BURNERS OR INTERIOR
SURFACES OF THE OVEN. Both surface burners and
oven burners may be hot even though flames are not
visible. Areas near surface burners may become hot
enough to cause burns. During and after use, do not
touch, or let clothing or other flammable materials touch
these areas until they have had sufficient time to cool.
Among these areas are the cooktop, surfaces facing
the cooktop, the oven vent openings and surfaces near
these openings, oven door and window.
• Wear proper appareIRLoose=fitting or hanging
garments should never be worn while using the
appliance. Do not let clothing or other flammable
materials contact hot surfaces.
• Do not use water or flour on grease fires--Smother
the fire with a pan lid, or use baking soda, a dry
chemical or foam=type extinguisher.
• When heating fat or grease, watch it closely. Fat or
grease may catch fire if allowed to become too hot.
In case of fire or gas leak, be sure to turn
off the main gas shutoff valve.
• Use only dry potholders--Moist or damp potholders
on hot surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do
not let potholders touch hot heating burners. Do not use
a towel or other bulky cloth instead of a potholder.
• Do not heat unopened food containers--Buildup of
pressure may cause container to burst and result in
injury.
Remove the oven door from any unused range if it is
to be stored or discarded.
IMPORTANT--Do not attempt to operate the oven
during a power failure. If the power fails, always turn
off the oven. If the oven is not turned off and the power
resumes, the oven may begin to operate again. Once the
power resumes, reset the clock and oven function.
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING
YOUR COOKTOP
Use proper flame size--Adjust flame size
so itdoes not extend beyond the edge of the utensil. The
use of undersized utensils will expose a portion of the
burner flame to direct contact and may result inignition
of clothing. Proper relationship of utensil to flame will also
improve efficiency.
Do not use stove top grills on the burner
grates of sealed gas burners. If you use a stove top grill on
a sealed gas burner, it will cause incomplete combustion
and can result in exposure to carbon monoxide levels
above allowable current standards. This can be hazardous
to your health.
• Know which knob controls each surface burner.
Place a pan of food on the burner before turning it on,
and turn the burner off before removing the pan.
• Always turn the knob to the full LITE position when
igniting top burners. Visually check that burner has lit.
Then adjust the flame so it does not extend beyond the
edge of the utensil.
• Use proper pan size. This appliance is equipped with
one or more surface burners of different sizes. Select
utensils having flat bottoms large enough to cover the
surface burner. The use of undersized utensils will
expose a portion of the surface burner to direct contact
and may result in ignition of clothing. Proper relationship
of utensil to the surface burner will also improve
efficiency.
Utensil handles should be turned inward and not
extend over adjacent surface burners. To reduce
the risk of burns, ignition of flammable materials, and
spillage due to unintentional contact with the utensil, the
handle of the utensil should be positioned so that it is
turned inward, and does not extend to adjacent surface
burners.
Never leave surface burners unattended at high
heat settings--Boilovers cause smoking and greasy
spillovers that may ignite, or a pan that has boiled dry
may melt.
• Protective liners--Do not use aluminum foil to line
surface burner pans, or oven bottom, except as
suggested in this manual. Improper installation of these
liners may result in risk of electric shock, or fire.
• Glazed cooking utensils--Only certain types of
glass, glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other
glazed utensils are suitable for rangetop service without
breaking due to the sudden change in temperature.
Check the manufacturer's recommendations for cooktop
use.
Do not use Searing Grill on the cooktop. The searing
grill is not designed for use on the cooktop. Doing so
may result in a fire.
Do not use decorative surface burner covers. If a
burner is accidentally turned on, the decorative cover
will become hot and possibly melt. Burns will occur ifthe
hot covers are touched. Damage may also be done to
the cooktop or burners because the covers may cause
overheating. Air will be blocked from the burner and
cause combustion problems.
important Safety instructions
iMPORTANT iNSTRUCTiONS FOR USING
YOUR OVEN
• Use care when opening oven door or warmer drawer
(if equipped)--Stand to the side of the range when
opening the door of a hot oven. Let hot air or steam
escape before you remove or replace food in the oven/
warmer drawer.
• Keep oven vent ducts unobstructed. The oven vent
is located at the center rear of the cooktop. Touching the
surfaces in this area when the oven is operating may
cause severe burns. Also, do not place plastic or heat-
sensitive items on or near the oven vent. These items
could melt or ignite.
NEVER cover any slots, holes or
passages in the oven bottom or cover an entire rack
materials such as aluminum foil. Doing so blocks air
flow through the oven and may cause carbon monoxide
poisoning. Aluminum foil linings may trap heat, causing a
fire hazard.
• Placement of oven/warmer drawer (if equipped)
racks. Always place oven racks in desired location
while oven/warmer drawer (if equipped) is cool. If rack
must be moved while oven is hot use extreme caution.
Use potholders and grasp the rack with both hands to
reposition. Do not let potholders contact the hot heating
elements in the oven/warmer drawer (if equipped).
Remove all utensils from the rack before moving.
• Do not use the broiler pan without its insert. The
broiler pan and its insert allow dripping fat to drain and be
kept away from the high heat of the broiler.
• Do not cover the broiler insert with aluminum foil,
Exposed fat and grease could ignite.
• Do not touch a hot light bulb with a damp cloth.
Doing so could cause the bulb to break. Disconnect the
appliance or turn off the power to the appliance before
removing and replacing light bulb.
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR CLEANING
YOUR RANGE
• Clean the range 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 on hood or filter. Greasy
deposits in the fan could catch fire. When you are flaming
food under the hood, turn the fan on. Refer to the hood
manufacturer's instructions for cleaning.
SELF-CLEANING OVENS
• In the self-Cleaning cycle only clean the parts listed
in this Use and Care Guide. Before self-cleaning the
oven, remove the broiler pan and any utensils or foods
from the oven.
• 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.
• Do not clean door gasketiThe door gasket is essential
for a good seal. Care should be taken not to rub, damage :::'
or move the gasket. _::::/
• Remove oven racks. Oven racks color will change if left :""::::::
in the oven during a self-cleaning cycle.
_The health of some birds is extremely
sensitive to the fumes given off during the self-
cleaning cycle of the range. Move the birds to another
well ventilated room.

Control Locations of the Gas Surface
Burners
Your range is equipped with gas surface burners with
different BTU ratings. The ability to heat food quicker
and in larger volumes increases as the burner size
increases,
The small SIMMER burner is best used for simmering
delicate sauces, etc. This burner is located at the right
rear burner position on the cooktop (see Figure 4).
The STANDARD burner can be used for most surface
cooking needs. The standard burner is located at the
left front position on the cooktop (see Figure 4).
The POWER burners are best used for bringing large
quantities of liquid rapidly up to temperature or when
preparing larger quantities of food. The POWER
burners are located at the right front and left rear burner
positions on the cooktop (see Figure 4).
Regardless of size, always select cookware that
is suitable for the amount and type of food being
prepared. Select a burner and flame size appropriate to
the pan. Never allow flames to extend beyond the outer
edge of the pan.
Setting Surface Controls
Do not place plastic
items such as salt and pepper shakers,
spoon holders or plastic wrappings
on top of the range when it is in
use. These items could melt or ignite.
Potholders, towels or wood spoons could
catch fire if placed too close to a flame.
in the event of an electrical power outage,
the surface burners can be lit manually.
To light a surface burner, hold a lit match
to the burner head, then slowly turn the
surface control knob to LITE. After burner
lights push in and turn knob to desired
setting. Use caution when lighting surface
burners manually.
Operating the Gas Surface Controls:
1. Place cooking utensil on surface burner.
2. Push the surface control knob down and turn counterclockwise out of
the OFF position (See Figure 1).
3. Release the knob and rotate to the LITE position (Figure 2). Note: All
four electronic surface ignitors will spark at the same time. However,
only the burner you are turning on will ignite.
4. Visually check that the burner has a flame.
5. Turn the control knob counterclockwise to the desired flame size. The
control knobs do not have to be set at a particular setting. Use the knob
indicator settings to adjust the flame as needed. DO NOT cook with
the surface control knob in the LITE position. (The electronic ignitor will
continue to spark if the knob is left in the LITE position.)
Setting Proper Surface Burner Flame Size
For most cooking, start on the highest control setting and then turn to a
lower one to complete the process. Use the recommendations below as a
guide for determining proper flame size for various types of cooking. The
size and type of utensil used and the amount of food being cooked will
influence the setting needed for cooking.
High Flame Start most foods; bring water to a boil; pan broiling.
Medium Flame Maintain a slow broil; thicken sauces, gravies; steaming.
Figure 1
Figure 2
Low Flame Keep foods cooking; poach; stewing.
*These settings are based on using medium=weight metal or
aluminum pans with lids. Settings may vary when using other types
of pans. The color of the flame is the key to proper burner adjustment. A
good flame is clear, blue and hardly visible in a well-lighted room. Each
cone of flame should be steady and sharp. Adjust or clean burner if flame
is yellow-orange.
Regardless of size, always select cookware that is suitable for the
amount and type of food being prepared. Select a burner and flame size
appropriate to the pan. Never allow flames to extend beyond the outer
edge of the pan.
For deep fat frying, use a thermometer and adjust the surface control
knob accordingly. Ifthe fat is too cool, the food will absorb the fat and be
greasy. If the fat is too hot, the food will brown so quickly that the center
will be undercooked. Do not attempt to deep fat fry too much food at once
as the food will neither brown nor cook properly.

flatness by rotating a
ruler across the bottom
of the cookware (See
Figure 1).Be sure to
follow the recommendations for using
cookware as shown in Figure 2.
Note: The size and type of cookware used
will influence the setting needed for best
cooking results.
Note: Always use a utensil for its intended
purpose. Follow manufacturer's instruc-
tions. Some utensils were not made to be
used in the oven or on the cooktop.

Using a wok
Woks with flat bottoms suitable for
use on your cooktop are available
in most cook shop or hardware
stores. Round-bottomed woks (with
a support ring that does not extend
beyond the burner unit) may also be
used. The metal ring was designed to
support the wok safely when it is filled
with large amounts of liquids (soup
making) or fat (frying).
Wire trivets: Do not use wire trivets.
Cookware bottoms must be in direct
contact with the grates.
DO NOT use a wok if it is equipped
with a metal ring that extends beyond
the burner unit. Because this ring
traps heat, the surface unit and
cooktop surface could be damaged.

Adjusting the Oven Temperature
Your oven control has been precisely set at the factory. This setting may differ from your previous oven however, so your
recipe times may not give you the results you expect. If you think that the oven is cooking too hot or too cool for your
recipe times, you can adjust the control so that the oven cooks hotter or cooler than the temperature displayed.
To Adjust Oven Temperature:
1. Press B_:.
2. Set the temperature to 550°F (287°C) by pressing and holding the J_.
3. Within 2 seconds, press and hold until the 2 digit display appears. Release . The display now indicates
the amount of degrees offset between the original factory temperature setting and the current temperature setting. If
the oven control has the original factory calibration, the display will read "0".
4. The temperature can now be adjusted up or down 35°F or 19°C, in 5°F or 1°C steps by pressing and holding the
or V. Adjust until the desired amount of offset appears in the display. When lowering the oven temperature,
a minus sign (-) will appear before the number to indicate that the oven will be cooler by the displayed amount of
degrees.
5. When you have made the desired adjustment, press (sT_P)to go back to the time of day display.
Note: Oven temperature adjustments made will not change the Self-Cleaning feature temperature.

Self-Cleaning
During the Self-Cleaning
cycle, the outside of the range can
become very hot to the touch. DO NOT
leave small children unattended near the
appliance.
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.
DO NOT line the
oven walls, racks, bottom or any other
part of the range with aluminum foil.
Doing so will destroy heat distribution,
produce poor baking results and cause
permanent damage to the oven interior
(aluminum foil will melt to the interior
surface of the oven).
DO NOT force the
oven door open. This can damage the
automatic door locking system. Use
caution when opening the door after the
Self-Cleaning cycle is completed. The
oven may still be VERY HOT.

Self-Cleaning Oven
A Self-Cleaning oven cleans itself with high temperatures (we[[ above
cooking temperatures) which eliminate soils completely or reduces them to
a fine powdered ash you can wipe away with a damp cloth.
Adhere to the following cleaning precautions:
,, DO NOT use oven cleaners or oven protective coatings in or around
any part of the Self-Cleaning oven.
,, DO NOT clean the oven door gasket. The woven material of the oven
door gasket is essential for a good seal. Care should be taken not to
rub, damage or remove the gasket.
,, DO NOT use any cleaning materials on the oven door gasket. Doing so
could cause damage.
• Remove the broiler pan and insert, a[[ utensils and any aluminum
foil. These items cannot withstand high cleaning temperatures.
,, Oven racks do not have to be removed, but remaining in the oven
during the Self-Clean will turn them slightly blue and dull their finish.
If left in, after the cycle is complete and the oven has cooled, rub the
sides of the oven racks with wax paper or a cloth containing a small
amount of salad oil (this will make the racks glide easier into the rack
position).
Remove any excessive spi[[overs inthe oven cavity before starting
the Self-Cleaning cycle. To clean, use hot, soapy water and a cloth.
Large spillovers can cause heavy smoke or fire when subjected to
high temperatures. DO NOT allow food spills with a high sugar or acid
content (such as milk, tomatoes, sauerkraut, fruit juices or pie filling) to
remain on the surface as they may leave a dull spot even after cleaning.
,, Clean any soil from the oven frame, the door liner outside the oven door
gasket and the small area at the front center of the oven bottom. These
areas heat sufficiently to burn soil on. Clean with soap and water. Do
not hand clean door gasket.
NOTE: Prior to setting the Self-Clean cycle, any spills remaining on the
oven bottom should be removed.

Note: See additional cleaning informa-
tion for the oven door in the General
Care & Cleaning section.
What to Expect during Cleaning
While the oven is in operation, the oven heats to temperatures much higher
than those used in normal cooking. Sounds of metal expansion and con-
traction are normal. Odor is also normal as the food soil is being removed.
Smoke may appear through the oven vent.
If heavy spillovers are not wiped up before cleaning, they may flame and
cause more smoke and odor than usual. This is normal and safe and
should not cause alarm. If available, use an exhaust fan during the self-
cleaning cycle.
19
Self-Cleaning (cont'd)
Self-Clean Time Length
For satisfactory results, use a 2 hour Self-Clean cycle for light soils, and a 3 hour cycle for average, and a 4 hour cycle
for heavy soils. NOTE: The kitchen area should be well ventilated using an open window, ventilation fan or exhaust
hood during the Self-Clean cycle. This will help eliminate the normal odors associated with the Self-Clean cycle.
To Set the Controls for a Self-Clean Cycle or a Delayed Start Self-Clean Cycle:

Before You Call
Solutions to Common Problems
Before you call for service, review this list. It may save you time and expense. The list includes common occurrences
that are not the result of defective workmanship or materials in this appliance.
OCCURRENCE POSSIBLE CAUSE/SOLUTION
Range is not level. Poor installation. Place oven rack in center of oven. Place a level on the oven rack.
Adjust leveling legs at base of range until the rack is level. When range is level,
cooktop may appear out of alignment if countertop is not level.
Weak, unstable floor. Be sure floor is level and can adequately support range. If floor
is sagging or slopping, contact a carpenter to correct the situation.
Kitchen cabinet misalignment may make range appear to be unlevel. Be sure
cabinets are square and have sufficient room for range clearance.
Cannot move appliance easily. Appliance
must be accessible for service.
Entire range or oven does not operate.
*Oven control beeps and displays any F
code error (for exemple F11)
Oven light does not work.
Surface burners do not light.
Surface burner flame burns half way
around.
Surface burner flame is orange.
Poor baking results.
Cabinets not square or are built in too tight. Contact a cabinet maker to correct the
problem.
Contact builder or installer to make appliance accessible.
Carpet interferes with range. Provide sufficient space so range can be lifted over
carpet.
Gas line is hard-plumbed. Have a flexible C.S.A international approved metal
appliance connector installed.
Make sure cord/plug is plugged tightly into outlet.
Service wiring is not complete. Call 1=800=4=MY=HOME® (See back cover).
Electrical power outage. Check house lights to be sure. Call your local electric
company for service. Surface burners can be lit manually.
Electronic control has detected a fault condition. Press STOP to clear the display and
stop beeping. Reprogram oven. If fault recurs, record fault number. Press STOP and
call 1=800=4=MY=HOME® for assistance (See back cover).
Replace or tighten bulb. See Changing Oven Light section in this Use & Care Guide.
Electrical power outage. Check house lights to be sure. Call your local electric
company for service.
Surface control knob has not been completely turned to LITE. Push in and turn the
surface control knob to LITE until burner ignites and then turn the surface control
knob to the desired flame size.
Burner ports are clogged. Clean burners. See "Cleaning the Burner Grates, Burner
Caps and Burner Heads" under General Cleaning.
Range power is disconnected from outlet. Be sure cord is securely plugged into the
outlet.
Electrical power outage.
Be sure the gas supply to the range is turned "ON".
Burner ports or slots are clogged. With the burner off, use a small-gauge wire or
needle to clean ports or slots.
Moisture is present after cleaning. Lightly fan the flame and allow the burner to
operate until flame is full. Dry the burners thoroughly following instructions under
General Cleaning.
Dust particles in main line. Allow the burner to operate a few minutes until flame turns
blue.
Salt air in coastal areas. A slightly orange flame is unavoidable.
Many factors affect baking results. Make sure the proper rack position is used. Center
food in the oven and space pans to allow air to circulate. Allow the oven to preheat
to the set temperature before placing food in the oven. Try adjusting the recipes'
recommended temperature or baking time. If you feel the oven is too hot or cool, see
"Adjusting your Oven Temperature" section in this Use and Care Guide.

OCCURRENCE POSSIBLE CAUSE/SOLUTION
Fan noise during cooking operation. A cooling fan may automatically turn on and off to cool internal parts. It is normal, and
the fan may continue to run after the range has been turned "OFF" but may also stop
immediately to turn "ON" after a while.
Flames inside oven or smoking from
vent.
Oven smokes excessively during broiling.
Self=cleaning cycle does not work.
Soil not completely removed after self=
cleaning cycle.
Excessive spillovers in oven. Set self-clean cycle for a longer cleaning time.
Excessive spillovers in oven. This is normal, especially for pie spillovers or large
amounts of grease on the oven bottom. Wipe up excessive spillovers before starting
the self-clean cycle, if flames or excessive smoke are present, stop the self-clean
cycle and follow the steps under "Stopping or Interrupting the Self=Cleaning
Cycle" inthis Use and Care Guide.
Meat is too close to the element. Reposition the rack to provide proper clearance
between the meat and the oven broil element.
Meat is not properly prepared. Remove excess fat from meat. Remove remaining fatty
edges to prevent the meat from curling, but do not cut into the lean of the meat.
Broiler pan used without the Broiler Pan Insert or insert is covered with foil. DO NOT
use the Broiler Pan without the Broiler Pan Insert or cover the insert with foil.
Broiler Pan or Broiler Pan Insert needs to be cleaned. Excessive smoking is caused
by build-up of grease or food spatters. Clean the Broiler Pan and Insert on a regular
basis.
Control(s) not set properly. Follow instructions under "Self=Cleaning" in this Use and
Care Guide.
Self-cleaning cycle was interrupted. Stop time must be 2 to 4 hours past the start
time. Follow steps under "Stopping or Interrupting the Self=Cleaning Cycle" in this
Use and Care Guide.
