I RTANT SAFETY iNSTRUCTiON
Storage in or on Appliance--Flammable materials should
not be stored in an oven, near surface burners or in the
drawer (if equipped). Thisincludes paper, plastic and cloth
items, such as cookbooks, plasticware and towels, as well as
flammable liquids. Donot store explosives,suchasaerosol cans,
on ornearthe appliance. Flammable materialsmay explodeand
result infire or property damage.
Do not leave children alone--Children should not be
left alone or unattended in the area where appliance
is in use, They should never be allowed to sit or stand on
any part of the appliance.
DO NOTTOUCH SURFACEBURNERS, AREAS NEAR
THESEBURNERS,OVEN HEATING ELEMENTS OR
INTERIOR SURFACESOFTHE OVEN ORWARMER
DRAWER (if equipped). Both surface burners and oven
heating elements may be hot even though they are dark in
color. 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 apparel--Loose=fitting or hanging
garments should never be worn while using the
appliance. Do not let clothing or other flammable
materials contact hot surfaces.
Use proper pan size--Adjust flame size
so it does 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 in ignition of
clothing. Proper relationship of utensil to flame will also
improve efficiency.
Do not usestove 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.
Electronic controllers can be damaged by
cold temperatures. When you use your appliance for the
first time, or if it has not been used for a long period of
time, make sure that it has been exposed to a
temperature above 0°C/32°F for at least 3 hours before
connecting it to the power supply.
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING YOUR
COOKTOP
• Know which knob controls each surface heating unit.
Always turn the knob to the LITEposition when igniting
the burners. Visually check that burner has lit. Then adjust
the flame so it does not extend beyond the edge of the
utensil.
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 elements. 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
the oven off. If the oven is not turned off and the power
resumes, the oven may begin to operate again. (Food left
unattended could catch fire or spoil.)
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.
Never leave surface burners unattended at high heat
settings--Boilovers cause smoking and greasy
accumulations that may ignite, or a pan that has boiled dry
may melt.
Protective liners--Do not usealuminum foil to line oven
bottom or any other part of the appliance. Only use
aluminum foil as recommended for baking if used as a
cover placed on the food. Any other use of protective
liners or aluminum foil may result in a risk of electric shock
or fire or short circuit.
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 • Do not cover the broiler insert with aluminum foil.
manufacturer's recommendations for rangetop use. Exposed fat and grease could ignite.
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 if the 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.
FOR GLASS COOKTOPS ONLY
• Do not clean or operate a broken cooktop--lf cooktop
should break, cleaning solutions and spillovers may
penetrate the broken cooktop and create a risk of electric
shock. Contact a qualified technician immediately.
Clean cooktop glass with caution--If a wet sponge or
cloth is used to wipe spillson a hot cooking area, be
careful to avoid a steam burn. Some cleaners can produce
harmful fumes if applied to a hot surface.
Avoid scratching the cooktop glass with sharp
objects,
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 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.
• 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 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 gasket--The 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,
IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE

REMEMBER-- DO NOT ALLOW SPILLS, FOOD, CLEANING AGENTS OR
ANY OTHER MATERIAL TO ENTERTHE GAS ORIFICE HOLDER
OPENING. Always keep the Burner Caps and Burner Heads in place
whenever the surface burners are in use.
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 closeto 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 turn the knob to desired setting. Use
caution when lighting surface burners
manually.
Setting Surface Controls
Your range isequipped with different sizes surface burners. The ability to
heat food quicker and in larger volumes increases asthe burner size
increases.
The simmer burner (if equipped) is best used for simmering delicate sauces,
etc.
The standard burners can be used for most surface cooking needs.
The power burners (if equipped) are best used for bringing large quantities
of liquid to temperature or when preparing larger quantities of food.
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
Operating the Gas Surface Controls:
1. Placecooking utensil on surface burner.
2. Pushthe surface control knob down and turn counterclockwise out of the OFF
position.
/
Setting Proper Surface Burner Flame Size
3. Releasethe knob and rotate to the LITEposition. 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
LITEposition. (The electronic ignitor will continue to spark if the knob is left in the
LITEposition.)
For most cooking - start on the highest control setting and then turn to a lower
one to complete the process. Usethe 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.
*Flame Size
High Flame
Incorrect
Never extend the flame beyond the
outer edge of the utensil. A higher
flame simply wastes heat and energy,
and increases the risk of being burned
by the gas fame.
*Note: Settings are based on using medium-weight metal or aluminum pans. 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. Eachcone of flame should be steady and sharp. Adjust or clean burner if flame is yellow-orange.
Medium Flame
Low Flame
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 istoo 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 asthe food
will neither brown nor cook properly.
Type of Cooking
Start most foods; bring water to a boil; pan broiling.
Maintain a slow boil; thicken sauces, gravies; steaming.
Keep foods cooking; poach; stewing.

BROIL
Broiling is a method of cooking tender cuts of meat by direct heat under the broil element of the oven.
A beep lets you know when the broil temperature is reached. Be sure you center the broiler pan
directly under the broil element for best results.
Arrange oven rack while oven isstill cool. Position the rack as needed.
The broiler pan and its insert allow dripping grease to drain and be kept away from the high heat of
the broiler. DO NOT use the pan without its insert. DO NOT cover the insert with foil. The exposed
grease could ignite.
Should an oven fire occur, close the oven door and turn off the oven. If the fire continues, throw baking soda
on the fire or use afire extinguisher. DO NOT put water or flour on the fire. Flour may be explosive and water can cause a
grease fire to spread and cause personal injury.
