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 positions on the cooktop.

Figure 4

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. 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.

*Flame Size Type of Cooking

Figure 1

High Flame Start most foods; bring water to a boil; pan broiling.

Medium Flame Maintain a slow boil; thicken sauces, gravies; steaming.

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. Clean burner if flame is yellow-

orange.

Never extend the flame beyond the outer edge of the utensil. A higher flame wastes heat and energy and increases your risk of being burned by the flame (Figure 2).

For deep fat frying, use a thermometer and adjust the surface control

knob accordingly. If the fat is too cool, the food will absorb the fat and be greasy. If the fat is too hot, the food will brown quickly and 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.

The Bridge Burner should be used with rectangular shaped cookware. Cookware like the cast-iron Griddle that is supplied with your range is designed specifically for best results with the Bridge Burner.

The Bridge Burner feature may be used to combine the cooking power of 2 or if needed 3 gas surface Burners located along the left-hand side of the glass cooktop.The left rear and left center Burners are controlled by the left rear surface Control Knob. In addition the left front Burner may be added to the Bridge Burner with the left front gas Control Knob (See Figure 1).

Operating the Bridge Burner

1. Push the left rear surface control knob in and turn counterclockwise out of the OFF position (See Figure 2).

2. Release the knob and rotate to the LITE position (See Figures 2 & 3). Note: All electronic surface ignitors will spark at the same time. However, only the selected

surface Burner will lite.

3. Visually check that the left rear Burner has lit.

4. Continue to rotate the gas control knob counterclockwise past the first LO setting to the arrow.. ' ,

5. Visually check that both the left rear and left center Burners are lit.

6. When both burners are lit, continue to turn the control knob counterclockwise to adjust to the desired flame size for both burners together. Note: The markings Figure 1

between the 2rid HI and LO settings on the left rear control knob adjust the flame size for both burners. Use the guide marks between the 2nd HI and LO settings and adjust the flame size as

needed (Refer to Figure 3).

7. Add the left front Burner if needed. Once lit, visually adjust the flame size of the left front Burner to match the flame size of the Bridge Burner.

8. Place cooking utensil centered over the left-hand cooktop surface Burner Grate. DO NOT cook with any of the surface control knobs in the LITE position (The electronic ignitor will continue to spark if the knob is left in the LITE position).

Note: If only the left rear surface Burner is needed, follow the instructions provided below.

Operating only the Left rear Gas Surface Burner

1. Place cooking utensil centered over the left-rear surface Burner Grate.

2. Push the left rear surface control knob in and turn counterclockwise out of the OFF position (See Figure 2).

3. Release the knob and rotate to the LITE position. Note: All electronic surface ignitors will spark at the same time. However, only the left rear Burner will ignite.

4. Visually check that the left-rear burner has lit. Adjust the flame size by turning the control knob between the first HI and LO settings (See Figure 3). 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).

Surface Cooking

Use Proper Cookware

Cookware should have flat bottoms that

make good contact with the entire

surface heating element. Check for

flatness by rotating a ruler across the Figure 1

bottom of the cookware (See

Figure 1). Be sure to follow the recommendations for using cookware as shown in Figure 2.

CORRECT

• Flat bottom and straight sides.

• Tight fitting lids.

Weight of handle does not tilt

pan. Pan is well balanced. Pan sizes match the amount

of food to be prepared.

Made of material that

conducts heat well.

INCORRECT

= Curved and warped pan bottoms.

Pan overhangs burner grate by

more than 2.5 cm (1").

Heavy handle tilts pan.

Flame extends beyond pan.

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 instructions.

Some utensils were not made to be used in the oven or on the cooktop.

Using a wok (some models)

Woks with flat bottoms suitable for

use on your cooktop are available in most cookshop or hardware stores. Round-bottomed woks (with a support ring that does not extend beyond the

burner circumference) 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.

Easy to clean.

Figure 2

* Specialty pans such as lobster pots, griddles and pressure cookers may

be used but must conform to the above recommended cookware

requirements.

DO NOT use a wok if it is equipped with

a metal ring that extends beyond the

burner circumference. Because this ring traps heat, the surface unit and

cooktop surface could be damaged.

Surface Cooking

Care & Seasoning of the Griddle (some models)

Before first use:

,,Wash Griddle in hot soapy water. Rinse and then dry completely. ,,Apply a thin coat of vegetable oil to the entire surface (front and back of griddle). ,, Preheat your oven to 350°R Place the griddle on the upper rack in your oven. ,,Bake griddle for 1 hour at 350°E then turn oven OFF and let cool before remov-

ing.

,,The surface may appear to have a tacky feel to it from the seasoning process, if

desired, wash the griddle in hot soapy water, rinse well, and dry completely.

After each use: ,,To prevent rusting, store in a dry place and keep uncovered.

,,After each use, clean with a stiff brush and hot water only.

• DO NOT CLEAN GRIDDLE IN DISHWASHER. ,,Dry Immediately and apply a light coating of vegetable oil to griddle before

storing.

Using the Griddle:

,, Place either side of the griddle centered over the left side gas burners or over the

Bridge Burner. For location refer to Figure 1.

,, Preheat the griddle for 5 minutes on medium to medium low setting. Slow

preheat ensures even heat distribution during the cooking process.

,,DO NOT preheat the griddle on HI setting. Preheating on HI may warp the

griddle and prevent even heat distribution.

cause burns. Your appliance may be equipped with one

or more of the oven rack types shown; Flat Handle Oven Rack (Figure 2) and Flat Oven Half Rack (Figure 3).

The Flat Half Rack has a removable insert that can provide extra space for larger food items. The right half rack portion may still be used for other food items like a

casserole dish (See Figure 3). To remove the insert, squeeze on the left front insert side (See Figure 4) of the rack and tilt out clockwise. To reinstall insert rear hooks at back of insert (See Figure 5) and lay insert down. Make sure both insert front hooks snap into rack (See Figure 5).

Do not use cookware that extends beyond the edge of the Flat Half Rack. For best results, allow 2 inches between the pan placed on the rack and oven side or

rear walls.

Setting Oven Controls

Setting Convection Bake

The CONVECTION BAKE ',,,_,_k;,ipad controls the Convection Bake feature. Use the Convection Bake feature when cooking speed Jsdesired. The oven can be programmed for Convection baking at any temperature between 170°F (77°C) to 550°F (288°C).

Convection baking uses a fan to circulate the oven"s heat evenly and continuously within the oven (See Figure 1). This improved heat distribution allows for fast, even cooking and browning results. It also gives better baking results when using 2 or 3 racks at the same time. Breads and pastries brown more evenly. Convection bake cooks most foods faster and more evenly than conventional bake. Some models are equipped with multiple fan speeds for even cooking when baking and better tasting meats when roasting. It will use a slower fan speed for baking. The slow fan speed slowly and evenly moves the air through the cavity and produce lighter flakier crusts for pies and evenly brown cookies.

General Convection Bake instructions

1. Time reductions will vary depending on the amount and type of food to be cooked. Cookies and biscuits should be baked on pans with no sides or very low sides to allow heated air to circulate around the food. Food baked on pans with a dark finish will cook faster.

2. Preheating is not necessary when cooking casseroles with Convection Bake.

3. When using Convection Bake with a single rack, place oven rack in position 2 or 3. if cooking on multiple racks, place the oven racks in positions 2 and

Setting Convection Roast

This method of cooking enables you to obtain the best results when roasting. The oven can be programmed to convection roast at any temperature from 170°F to 550°F (77°C to 288°C). Remember to use tested recipes with times adjusted for convection roasting when using the convection mode, This oven is equipped with multiple fan speeds for even cooking when baking and better tasting meats when roasting, it will use a faster fan speed for roasting which will quickly strip the cold air away from the meats replacing it with warm air (making a crisp outside - type of searing) sealing in juices for better tasting meats.

Setting the Slow Cook Feature

The _ SLOW COOK pad is used to activate this feature. The Slow Cook feature may be used to cook foods

slowly, at lower oven temperatures and provides cooking results much the same way as a Slow Cooker or Crock-Pot. The Slow Cook feature is ideal for roasting beef, pork & poultry. Slow Cooking meats may result in the exterior of meats becoming dark but not burnt. This is normal.

There are 2 settings available, high (HI) or low (LO). The maximum cook time for the Slow Cook feature is 12 hours unless the oven control has been changed to the Continuous Bake mode.This feature may be used with the additional settings of a Timed Bake Slow Cook (see Timed Bake beginning with step 5-7) or a Delayed Start Bake Slow Cook (see Delayed Start Bake steps 6-10).

Below is a list of preparation and cooking tips you should review for best possible results using Slow Cook:

Completely thaw all frozen foods before cooking with the Slow Cook feature. When using a single rack, place in position 2 or 3 (see figure 1 on page 15).

Position multiple racks to accommodate size of cooking utensils when cooking multiple food items.

Do not open the oven door often or leave the door open when checking foods. If the oven heat escapes often, the Slow Cook time may need to be extended. Cover the foods to keep them moist or use a loose or vented type cover to allow foods to turn crisp or brown. Cook times will vary; depending on the weight, fat content, bone & the shape of the meat.

Use the recipe's recommended food temperature and a food thermometer to determine when the food is done.

Preheating the oven will not be necessary when using the Slow Cook feature. Add any cream or cheese sauces during the last hour of cooking.

Using and Setting Meat Probe (Some Models)

Checking the internal temperature of your food isthe most effective way of insuringthat your food has been properly cooked. When cooking meat such as roasts, hams or poultry you can use the meat probe to check the internal temperature without any guesswork. For some foods, especially poultry and roasts, testing the internal temperature isthe best method to insure properly cooked meats.

important things to consider:

Use only the probe supplied with your appliance; any other may result in damage to the probe or the appliance. Handle the probe carefully when inserting and removing from the food or the receptacle. Do not use tongs to pull the cable when inserting or removing from the food or the receptacle. Defrost your food completely before inserting the probe to avoid damaging probe.

Never leave or store the probe inside the oven when not in use.

To prevent the possibility of burns, after

cooking carefully unplug the probe using a pot

holder.

Proper Meat Probe placement:

• Always insert the probe so that the tip rests in

the center of the thickest part of the meat. Do

not allow the probe to touch bone, fat, gristle or

the pan.

For bone-in ham or lamb, insert the probe into

the center of the lowest large muscle or joint.

For dishes such as meat loaf or casseroles, insert the probe into the center of the food. To

find the center of the food visually measure with the probe (See Fig. 1). When cooking fish,

insert the probe just above the gill. For whole poultry or turkey, insert the probe into

the thickest part of the inner thigh, below the leg

(See Fig. 2).

Operating the Warmer Drawer

The purpose of the Warmer Drawer is to keep hot cooked foods at serving temperature. Always start with hot food. It is not recommended to heat cold food in the Warmer Drawer. All food placed in the Warmer Drawer should be covered with a lid or aluminum foil to maintain quality. Do not use plastic wrap to cover food. Plastic may melt onto the drawer and be very difficult to clean. Use only utensils and cookware recommended for oven use in the Warmer

Drawer.

Always use potholders or oven mitts when removing food from the Warmer Drawer as cookware and

plates will be hot and you can be burned.

Warmer Drawer Food Temperature Settings

Use the recommended settings inthe Warmer Drawer settings table. If a particular food is not listed, start with the MED setting. If more crispness is desired, remove the lid or aluminum foil from the food. Most foods can be kept at serving temperatures on the MED setting. When a combination of foods are to be kept warm (for instance, meat with 2 vegetables and rolls), use the HI setting. To avoid heat loss, do not open the Warmer Drawer repeatedly while in use.

Preparing Bread Dough for the Warmer Drawer

The Warmer Drawer has a "Proof Bread" feature that can be used to help prepare bread dough. The recommended length of time to

keep bread dough in the Warmer Drawer is about 45-60 minutes, Be sure however to follow the recipe's recommended times,

The prepared bread dough should be placed in a large bowl since the dough will nearly double in volume. Arrange the Warmer Drawer Rack in the downward position (see Figure 6). Place the

bowl in the Warmer Drawer and follow the Warmer Drawer and Bread Proof Control setting instructions at the top of this page.

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.

DO HAND

CLEAN

Self-Cleaning Oven

A Self-Cleaning oven cleans itself with high temperatures (well 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, all utensils and any aluminum foil. These items cannot withstand high cleaning temperatures.

• Porcelain oven racks do not have to be removed. 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 spiilovers in the 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 NOTHAND

DO HAND CLEAN DOOR

Note: See additional cleaning informa- tion for the oven door in the General

Care & Cleaning section.

NOTE: A smoke eliminator in the oven vent converts most of the smoke into a

colorless vapor.

CLEAN SEAL

NOTE: Prior to setting the Self-Clean cycle, any spills remaining on the oven bottom should be removed.

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

contraction 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. Ifavailable, use an exhaust fan during the self-cleaning cycle.

To avoid possible burns use care when opening the oven

door after the Self-Cleaning cycle. Stand to the side of the oven when opening the door to allow hot air or steam to escape.

CLEAN OVEN

This oven comes with lubricated porcelain oven racks, which can remain in the oven during the self-clean cycle. Do not clean this vegetable oil lubrication off the racks. It

is important that the sides of the oven racks always have a light coating of vegetable oil. To maintain optimal rack performance, re-apply a thin layer of vegetable oil to the

sides of the rack after every self-clean cycle or when the rack becomes difficult to

slide.

Gentle scouring with a soapy scouring pad will remove most spots. Rinse with a 1:1

solution of clear water and ammonia, if necessary, cover difficult spots with an ammonia-soaked paper towel for 30 to 40 minutes. Rinse with clean water and a damp cloth, and then scrub with a soap-filled scouring pad. Rinse and wipe dry with a clean cloth. Remove all cleaners or the porcelain may become damaged during future heating. DO NOT use spray oven cleaners on the cooktop.

Use soap & water to thoroughly clean the top, sides and front of the oven door.

Rinse well. You may use a glass cleaner on the outside glass of the oven door. DO

NOT immerse the door in water. DO NOT spray or allow water or the glass cleaner to enter the door vents. DO NOT use oven cleaners, cleaning powders or any harsh abrasive cleaning materials on the outside of the oven door.

DO NOT clean the oven door gasket. The oven door gasket is made of a woven

material, on Self-Cleaning models, which is essential for a good seal. Care should be taken not to rub, damage or remove this gasket.

General Care & Cleaning (cont'd)

Cleaning the Cooktop, Burner Heads, Caps & Grates

The cooktop is designed to make cleaning easier. Because the gas Burners are sealed, cleanups are easy when spillovers are cleaned up immediately.

The cooktop, Burner Heads and Caps should be routinely cleaned. Keeping the Burner Head Ports clean will prevent improper ignition and an uneven flame. Refer to the following instructions:

THE COOKTOP IS NOT REMOVABLE. Do not attempt to remove or lift the cooktop.

THE FIXED OVEN VENT IS NOT REMOVABLE. Do not attempt to remove the fixed oven vent cover.

Use caution when replacing the Burner Caps so the Electrodes are not damaged. This may cause a

delayed ignition or prevent the burner from igniting.

To Remove and Replace the Surface Burner Caps and Burner Heads -

Do not remove any parts from the cooktop until they have completely cooled and are safe to handle. Do not operate the surface Burners without

the Burner Caps and Burner Heads properly in place.

To Clean the surface Burner Caps and Burner Heads (all models)- Use a soap-filled scouring pad or a mild abrasive cleanser to clean the surface Burner Caps and Burner Heads. The ports (or slots) around the Burner Heads must be routinely cleaned. If residue still remains in these ports, use a small-gauge wire or needle to clean the slots or holes. For proper flow of gas and ignition of the burner--DO NOT ALLOW SPILLS, FOOD, CLEANING AGENTS OR ANY

OTHER MATERIAL TO ENTER THE GAS ORIFICE HOLDER OPENING. ALWAYS keep the surface Burner Caps and Burner Heads in place whenever

the gas Burners are in use.

To Clean the Burner Grates (all models)- The Burner Grates are dishwasher safe and may be cleaned in the dishwasher. Remove any excessive soils before placing in the dishwasher.

To Clean the Cooktop and contoured areas of the cooktop (all models)- If a spill occurs on the porcelain cooktop, blot up spill with an absorbent cloth. Rinse with a clean, damp cloth and wipe dry. Do not use harsh abrasive cleaners on the cooktop. They can scratch the porcelain. Completely rinse any mild cleaners used from the surface or the porcelain cooktop may become damaged during future heating. DO NOT use spray oven cleaners on the cooktop.

General Care & Cleaning (cont'd)

Ceramic Glass Cooktop Cleaning and Maintenance

Consistent and proper cleaning is essential to your ceramic glass cooktop

Prior to using your cooktop for the first time, apply the recommended CookTop® Cleaning Creme to the ceramic surface (on the web visit www.sears.com for replacement cooktop cleaner, item number 40079). Buff with a non-abrasive cloth or no-scratch cleaning pad. This will make cleaning easier when soiled from cooking. The special cooktop cleaning cream leaves a protective finish on the glass to help prevent scratches and abrasions.

Sliding aluminum or copper clad bottom pans on the cooktop can cause metal markings on the cooktop surface. These marks should be removed immediately after the cooktop has cooled using the cooktop cleaning cream. Metal marks can become permanent if not removed prior to future use.

Cookware (cast iron, metal, ceramic or glass) with rough bottoms can mark or scratch the cooktop surface. Do not slide anything metal or glass across the cooktop. Do not use your cooktop as a cutting board or work surface in the kitchen. Do not cook foods directly on the cooktop surface without a pan. Do not drop heavy or hard objects on the glass cooktop, because they may cause it to crack.

Cleaning Recommendations for the Ceramic Glass Cooktop

Before cleaning the cooktop, be sure the controls are turned to OFF and the cooktop is COOL.

DO NOT use a cooktop cleaner on a hot cooktop. The fumes can be hazardous to your health, and

can chemically damage the ceramic-glass surface.

For light to moderate soil: Apply a few drops of CookTop® Cleaning Creme directly to the cooktop. Use a paper towel or use a non-abrasive plastic type no-scratch cleaning pad to clean the entire cooktop surface. Make sure the cooktop is cleaned thoroughly, leaving

no residue. For heavy, burned on soil:

Apply a few drops of CookTop® Cleaning Creme directly to the soiled area. Rub the soiled area using a non-abrasive plastic type no=scratch cleaning pad, applying pressure as needed. Do not use the pad you use to clean the cooktop for any other purpose.

if soils remain, carefully scrape soils with a metal razor blade scraper, holding scraper at a 30 degree angle to the surface. Remove loosened soils, then apply a few drops of cleaning cream and buff surface

clean.

iMPORTANT NOTE: Damage to the ceramic glass cooktop may occur if you use an abrasive type scratch pad. Only use cleaning products that have been specifically designed for ceramic glass cooktop.

Plastic or foods with a high sugar content: These types of soils need be removed immediately if spilled or melted onto the ceramic cooktop surface.

Permanent damage (such as pitting of the cooktop surface) may occur if not removed immediately. After turning the surface elements OFF, use a razor blade scraper or a metal spatula with a mitt and scrape the soil from the hot surface (as illustrated). Allow the cooktop to cool, and use the same method for heavy or burned on soils.

General Care & Cleaningj(cont'd)

Do not use the following on the ceramic glass cooktop:

• Do not use abrasive cleaners and scouring pads, such as metal and some nylon pads. They may scratch the cool(top, making it more

difficult to clean.

• Do not use harsh cleaners, such as chlorine bleach, ammonia or oven cleaners, as they may etch or discolor the cool(top.

• Do not use dirty sponges, cloths or paper towels, as they can leave soil or lint on the cool(top which can burn and cause discoloration.

Special Caution for Aluminum Foil and Aluminum Cooking Utensils

• Aluminum foil

Use of aluminum foil will damage the cooktop. Do not use under any circum- stances.

• Aluminum utensils

Since the melting point of aluminum is much lower than that of other metals, care must be taken when aluminum pots or pans are used. Pans that boil dry may permanently damage cooktop by breaking, fusing to, or marking it.

Care and Cleaning of Stainless Steel (StainlessSteel models only)

Some models are equipped with stainless steel exterior parts. Special care and cleaning are required for maintaining the appearance of stainless parts. Please refer to the table provided at the beginning of the General Care & Cleaning

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 Range is not level.

Cannot move appliance easily. Appliance must

be accessible for

service.

Entire range or oven does not operate.

Surface burners do not light.

POSSIBLE CAUSE/SOLUTION 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. Contact a carpenter to correct sagging or sloping floor.

Kitchen cabinet misalignment may make range appear to be unlevel. Be sure cabinets are square and have sufficient room for range clearance.

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. Carpeting 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 tightly into outlet.

Service wiring is not complete. Call 1=800=4=MY=HOME®(See backcover). Power outage. Check house lights to be sure. Call your local electric company for
