SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
Read all instructions before using this appliance, When using gas or electri-
cal appliances, basic safety precautions should be followed, including the
following:
:_ WARNING!! if the infor-
;_ mation in this manual is
ii not followed exactly, a !i
LI fire, explosion, or gas leak _
,_ may result causing property i
da age p l'njurym , ersona ! , or
;I
ers of potential exposure to such
substances.
Gas appliances can cause minor
exposure to four of these sub-
stances, namely benzene, carbon
monoxide, formaldehyde and soot,
caused primarily by the incom-
plete combustion of natural gas or
L.P. fuels. Properly adjusted appli-
ances, indicated by the bluish
rather than a yellow flame, will
minimize incomplete combustion.
Exposure to these substances can
be minimized by further venting
with an open window or using a
ventilation fan or hood.
The oven, as shipped from the fac-
tory, can only be operated with
natural gas. Do not try to operate
it with L.P. (bottled) gas High
flames and toxic fumes could
cause serious injury. If you wish to
use your oven with L.P. gas, you
must convert the range following
the procedure found in the installa-
tion instructions shipped with your
range.
IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE]
The California Safe Drinking Water
and Toxic Enforcement Act re.
quires the governor of California to
publish a list of substances known
to the state to cause birth defects

INSTRUCTIONS
• DO NOT touch cooktop burners,
surfaces near them, or interior oven
surfaces.. These may be hot enough to
cause burns even though they are
dark in color. During and after use, do
not touch or let clothing or flammable
material contact the burners or hot
surfaces until they have had time to
cool, Other surfaces near the oven
vent openings, oven door, window,
and cooktop surfaces may also be hot
enough to cause burns.
° ONLY SOME kinds of glass or
ceramic cookware can be used for
ceoktop cooking. Make sure the
cookware you choose to use is
designed for cooktop cooking without
breaking due to the sudden
temperature change.
• ALWAYS USE care when touching
cooktop burners. They will retain heat
after the range has been turned off.
oNEVER BLOCK the oven air vent
behind the right rear element
• COOKWARE USED for cooktop
cooking should be flat on the bottom
and large enough to cover the heating
area being used. Undersized utensils
expose the open flame and may result
in direct contact or ignition of clothing.
• NEVER LEAVE cooktop burners
unattended at high settings. Boilovers
result in smoking or greasy spills which
could catch fire.
• ALWAYS TURN utensil handles
inward and away from other surface
burners to reduce the risk of burns
ignition unintended contact and
spillage.
• PLACE OVEN RACKS in the
desired position while the oven is
cool. If racks must be moved while
oven is hot, do not let potholder
contact the hot oven element.
° AFTER BROILING always take
the broiler pan and grid out of the
oven and clean them Leftover
grease in the broiler pan could catch
fire the next time you use your oven.
- ALWAYS USE care when opening
the oven door. Let hot air and steam
escape before moving foods.
• NEVER USE aluminum foil to line the
oven bottom. Improper use of foil could
result in the risk of electric shock and
fire.
° CLEAN ONLY the parts listed in this
manual, Follow all cleaning instructions,
Be sure to remove broiler pan and grid
before the self-clean cycle,
° NEVER TRY to clean utensils,
cookware, removable parts, or broiler
pan and grid in the self-clean cycle,
• DO NOT USE oven cleaners - No
commercial oven cleaner, or protective
coating of any kind, should be used in
or around any part of the oven.

OPERATION
OvenCooking Tips
It is normal to have some odor when using
your oven for the first time,.To help
eliminate thisodor, ventilate the room
by opening a window or using a
vent hood.
In the back of the oven you will notice a
small tube. This is a heat sensor that
maintains thetemperature ofthe oven_
Never move or bend this tube.
IMPORTANT= Never cover the oven
bottom or oven rack with aluminum foil
Improper use can cause poor heat flow,
poer baking results and may damage the
oven finish.
/
The oven vent is located behind the rear
burners°This areacould become hot during
oven use_Never block this vent,
Preheating isbringing the oven temperature
up to thetemperature you will be using
during baking_
Opening the door often to check foods will
cause heat loss and poor baking results.
If baking with more than one pan, place
the pans so each has at least I to 1 !/2"
of air space around it, Place pans so one
is not directly above the other.
The Oven Temperature Sensor
continuously senses and controls the
temperature inside the oven. To keep a
constant set temperature, the burner
will cycle or turn on and off during
cooking.
The low temperature zone of this range
(between 170°F and 200°F) is available
to keep hot cooked foods warm, Food
kept longer than two hours at these low
temperatures may spoil.

the temperature you prefer to use.
The oven will start to heat automatically.
You will see 100 degrees showing in the
upper right corner of the display, As the

until it reaches your selected temperature,
then a tone will sound.
If you pause between steps for more than

The control is letting you know you need to
continue setting this function.
You should remember that food will
continue to cook after the oven turns OFF
unless you remove the food immediately.
You may hear a fan. This is normal. The
fan may continue to run after oven has
been turned off.
Never let food, such as dairy products,
fish, poultry, etc,, sit for more than 1 hour
before cooking starts when you set your
oven for a delay start, Room temperature
promotes the growth of harmful bacteria.
Be sure the oven light is off because heat
from the bulb will speed bacterial growth.

OPERATION
Broiling
Broiling is cooking by direct heat from
the Broil Burner. The oven door should
remain closed during broiling.
It is not necessary to preheat the oven
when broiling. Use the broiler pan and
grid that came with your range. Both are
designed for proper drainage of fat and
liquids,
__ . ........... .............. ,_,;,_,_
/.l|l"'_ If foil ,s used, it must
[ _,l be molded t,ghtly to
_IE_/the gr,d and slits cut
into the foil to match those
of the grid. This allows fats
and liquids to drain into the
broiler pan, preventing fire
and excessive smoke.
Always remove
the pan and grid
from the oven.
Storing or
forgetting a soiled broiler
pan in the oven is a
potential smoke or fire
hazard.
The US Department of Agriculture
notes that meat cooked rare is popular,
but meat cooked to only 140°F (rare)
means that some poisoning organisms
may survive.
The closer you place foods to the broil
element, the faster foods brown on the
outside yet remain red to pink in the
center.
Moving meats away from the element
will allow the meat to cook to the center
while browning on the outside. Using
this positioning, cook side 1 at least 2
minutes longer than side 2. If your oven
is connected to 208 volts, you may want
to use a higher rack position and/or
broil foods longer.
The size, weight, thickness, starting
temperature and your preference of the
aloneness of the meat will affect broiling.

refrigerator temperature
