IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

» Storage in or on Appliance—Flammable materials

should not be stored in an oven, near surface burners or in the drawer (if equipped). This includes paper, plastic

and cloth items, such as cookbooks, plasticware and towels, as well as flammable liquids. Do not store explosives, such as aerosol cans, on or near the appliance. Flammable materials may explode and result in fire or property damage.

ik WARNING I Use proper pan size—Adjust flame size

so it does not extend beyond the edge of the utensil.

The use of undersize utensils will exposed 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 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 SURFACE BURNERS, AREAS NEAR

THESE BURNERS, OVEN HEATING ELEMENTS OR

INTERIOR SURFACES OF THE OVEN. 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.

• 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.

ik WARNING

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—Build-up of

pressure may cause container to burst and result in injury.

• Remove the oven doors 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 ovens off. If the ovens are not turns off and the power

IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING YOUR COOKTOP

» Know which knob controls each surface heating unit.

Always turn the knob to the LITE position 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.

» 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 over 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 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.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

• 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 recommendationsforrangetop use.

• 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.

• Do not use the broiler pan without its grid. The

broiler pan and its grid allow dripping fat to drain and be kept away from the high heat of the broiler.

• Do not cover the broiler grid 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

FOR GLASS COOKTOPS ONLY

• Do not clean or operate a broken cooktop—If 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 spills on 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—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.

• Keep ovens vents unobstructed. Each vent has its own

vent located on the top, near each side and towards the back 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 an oven vent. These items could melt or ignite.

• Placement of ovens racks. Always place oven racks in

desired location while ovens are 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 ovens. Remove all utensils from the rack before moving.

•

• 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.

• Kitchen cleaners and aerosols—Always follow the

manufacturer's recommended directions for use. Be aware that excess residue from cleaners and aerosols may

ignite causing damage and injury.

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 ovens 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.

A CAUTION

A CAUTION

can generate large amounts of steam. Use extreme caution to prevent burns. Always raise the lid to vent steam away from you.

Canning

Use tested recipes and follow instructions carefully. Check with your local Cooperative Agricultural Extension Service or a manufacturer of glass jars for the latest canning information. Use flat-bottomed canners only. Heat is spread more evenly when the bottom surface is flat.

Center canner on the burner grate.

Start with hot water and a high heat setting to reduce the time it takes to bring the water to a boil; then reduce the heat setting as low as possible to maintain a constant boil. It is best to can small amounts and light loads.

A CAUTION

Do not use water bath or pressure canners that extend more than one inch beyond the edge of the burner orate. Do not leave water bath or pressure canners on high heat for an extended amount of time. Alternate surface units between each batch to allow the units and surrounding surfaces to cool down. Try to avoid canning on the same burner unit all day.

Prevent damage to cooktop and burner grates;

A CAUTION

are sealed completely. When canning in a water bath canner, a gentle but steady boil must be maintained continuously forthe required time.

Round-bottomed woks (with a support ring that does not extend beyond the burner unit) may also be used without the Wok Stand. The metal ring was designed to support the

wok safely when it is filled with large amounts of liquids (soup making) or fat (frying).

DO NOT use a wok if it is equipped with a metal ring that extends beyond the burner unit.

*These settings are based on using medium-weight aluminum pans with lids. Settings may vary when using other types of pans.

Never extend the flame beyond the outer edge of the utensil. A higher flame simply wastes heat and energy, and increases your risk of being burned by the flame.

Type of Cooking

Start most foods; bring water to a boil; pan broiling Maintain a slow boil; thicken sauces, gravies; steam Keep foods cooking; poach; stew

Proper Burner Adjustments

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 sharply defined. Adjust or clean burner if flame is yellow-orange. To adjust the flame see the Installation

Instructions and to clean burner, see instructions under General Cleaning.

Placement of Burner Bases and Caps

Place the burner base over each gas opening, matching the burner base size with the gas opening size. Place the burner cap on each burner base, again matching the cap size to the burner base size. The cap for the each Burner has a inner locating ring which locates the burner cap in the center of the burner.

WRONG

Make sure each burner cap is properly aligned and level.

Turn the burner on to determine if it will light. If the burner does not light, contact a Sears Service Center. Do not service the sealed burner yourself.

3. Visually check that the burner has lit.

4. Push in and turn the Surface Control Knob to the desired flame size. The control knobs do not have to be set at a particular mark. Use the guides and adjust the flame as needed. DO NOT cook with the Surface Control knob in the LITE position. (The electronic ignitor will continue to click if left in the LITE position, causing premature wear.)

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. Use caution when lighting surface burners manually.

Oven Vent(s) and Racks

Ovens Vents Locations

Each oven has its own vent located on the top, near each side and towards the back of the cooktop. When an oven is on, warm air is released through the vent; this ventilation is necessary for proper air circuiation in the oven and good baking resuits.

Arranging Oven Racks

ALWAYS ARRANGE OVEN RACKS WHEN THE OVEN IS COOL (RRIOR TO

ORERATINC THE OVEN). Aiways 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.

Broiling informations

Broiling is a method of cooking tender cuts of meat by direct heat from the broil element of the oven. Meats are placed on the broiling rack and the rack is placed under the broiling element.

See the broiling instructions for main oven in the Setting Oven Controls section. See side oven step-by-step instructions in the Setting Side Oven Control section.

Preheating

Preheating is suggested when searing rare steaks (remove the broiler pan before preheating; food will stick if placed on hot metal.) To preheat, set the oven control(s) to BROIL as instructed in the Setting Oven Controls section. Wait for the element to become red-hot, usually about 2 minutes. Preheating is not necessary when broiling meats well-done.

To Broil

Broil on one side until the food is browned; turn and cook on the other side; season and serve. Always pull rack out to the stop position before turning or removing food.

Determining Broiling Times

Broiling times vary; watch the food closely. Time not only depends on the distance from the element, but on the thickness and age of meat, fat content and doneness preferred. The first side usually requires a few minutes longer than the second. Frozen meats also require additional time.

FEATURE OVERVIEW

• Broiling Tips Broil Stop

Broiling Tips

The broiler pan and its grid allow dripping grease to drain and be kept away from the high heat of the broiler.

DO NOT use the pan without its grid. DO NOT cover the grid with foil. The exposed grease could ignite.

ik CAUTION

___________ fire continues, throw baking soda on the fire or use a fire extinguisher. DO NOT put water

or flour on the fire Flour may be explosive.

Always pull oven rack out to the stop position before turning or removing food.

Broiler Clean-Up Tips:

* To make cleaning easier, line bottom of the broiler pan with aluminum foil. DO NOT cover

the broiler grid with foil.

* To prevent grease from baking on, remove the broiler pan from the oven as soon as

cooking is completed. Use hot pads because the broiler pan is extremely hot. Pour off grease. Soak the pan in HOT, soapy water.

* Clean the broiler pan as soon as possible after each use. If necessary, use soap-filled steel

wool pads. Heavy scouring may scratch the grid.

Should an oven fire occur, close the oven door and turn off the oven. If the
