Remove the bracket from the
prepack located inside the oven.
Decide whether the bracket will be
installed on the right or left side of
range location.
if the bracket side of the range is
adjacent to a cabinet, place the
bracket against back wall and
cabinet as shown in Fig. 1.
if there is no adjacent cabinet,
determine where the location of
the range side (painted outside
panel) will be. Place the bracket
with its outside edge at this
location and against back wall.
See Fig. 2.
Determine whether you will anchor
the bracket to the floor or wall.
Make sure this location is clear of
electrical wiring or plumbing.
Fasten the bracket securely with
the screws provided. Screws are
self-drilling in wood, plywood,
particle and chip board, and most
metal framing. If attaching to
masonry, you can buy suitable
screws and anchors at hardware
stores. Use a masonry drill to drill
the required holes.

_mpo,_ant: To insure safety for
yourself, family and home, please read
your Owner's Manual carefully. Keep it
handy for reference. Pay close attention
to Safety Sections. BE SURE your
appliance is installed and grounded by a
qualified technician.
• DO NOT leave children alone or
unattended near an appliance in use.
o TEACH CHILDREN not to play with
controls or any part of the appliance,
and not to sit, climb or stand on the
door, or any other part of the appliance.
a
o
CAUTBON: NEVER STORE: items
of interest to children on the
backguard or in cabinets above the
appliance, Children climbing on the
appliance could be seriously injured.
KEEP THIS book for later use.
NEVER USE your appliance for
warming or heating the room.
NEVER TRY to repair or replace any
part of the appliance unless instruc-
tions are given in this manual. All other
work should be done by a qualified
technician.
o ALWAYS KEEP combustible walt
coverings, curtains, dish cloths,
towels, potholders, and other linens a
safe distance from the appliance.
o NEVER HEAT unopened food
containers, Pressure buildup can
cause the container to burst and
cause injury.
o NEVER LEAVE jars or cans of fat or
drippings in your oven.
o ALWAYS KEEP the oven and
surface unit areas free from things that
will burn. Food, wooden utensils, and
grease buildup could catch fire.
Plastic utensils could melt and canned
foods could explode. Your appliance
should never be used as a storage
area.
o ALWAYS KEEP your appliance clear
of things that will burn (gasoline and
other flammable vapors or liquids).
o NEVER TRY to clean a hot surface.
Some cleaners produce noxious
fumes, and wet cloths or sponges
could cause steam burns.
NEVER WEAR loose fitting clothing
when using your appliance.
NEVER USE a towel or other bulky
cloth as a potholder, and make sure
the potholder is dry. Moist potholders
and wet cloths or sponges could
cause steam burns. DO HOT let
potholders touch hot heating elements
4
o DO NOT touch heating elements,
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 elements or hot
surfaces until they have had time to
coo!. Other surfaces near the oven
vent openings, oven door and
window, and cooktop surfaces may
also be hot enough to cause burns.
• ONLY SOME kinds of glass or
ceramic cookware can be used for
cooktop cooking. Make sure the
cookware you choose to use is
designed for cooktop cooking without
breaking due to the sudden tempera-
ture change.
oALWAYS USE care when touching
cooktop elements. They will retain
heat after the range has been turned
off.
o NEVER BLOCK the oven air vent
under the right rear element.
oCOOKWARIE USED for cooktop
cooking should be flat on the bottom
and large enough to cover the heating
area being used. Undersized utensils
expose the heating element and may
result in direct contact or ignition of
clothing.
• ALWAYS USE drip bowls to prevent
wiring and component damage. Do
not use aluminum liners or foil in drip
bowls. Improper use may result in risk
of electrical shock or fire.
NEVER LEAVE surface units
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
units to reduce the risk of burns,
ignition, unintended contact, and
spillage.
NEVER put heating elements in
water.
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.
o AFTER BROIILIING, 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.
o ALWAYS USt_ care when opening
the oven door. Let hot air and steam
escape before moving foods.
°_EVER USr_ aluminum foil to line the
oven bottom. Improper use of foil could
result in the risk of electrical shock and
fire.

Preheating is bringing the oven
temperature up to the temperature
you will be using during baking. Let
the oven preheat thoroughly when
recipes call for preheating.
It is normal to have some odor when
using your oven for the first time. To
help eliminate this odor, ventillate
the room by opening a window
or using a ven_ hood,
gMPORTAHT: Never cover the oven
bottom or oven rack with aluminum
foil. Improper use can cause poor
heat flow, poor baking results, and
may damage the oven finish.
In the back of the oven you will notice
a small tube. This is a heat sensor
that maintains the temperature of the
oven. Never move or bend this tube.

Broiling is cooking by direct heat
from the upper element. The oven
door should remain open to the broil
stop position 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.
Bf foill _s used it must
be molded tightgy to
the grid and s_its cut

the oven is a poten-
tiall smoke or fire
hazard°
The U.S. Department of Agriculture
notes that meat cooked rare is
popular, but meat cooked to only
I40°F (rare) means that some food
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,
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 doneness of the meat will affect
broiling. This chart is based on meats
at refrigerator temperature.

Clean these areas with hot water,
soap-filled steel wool pads or
cleansers such as Soft Scrub@ to
remove any soil. Rinse well with clean

3, Wipe up any heavy spillovers on
the oven bottom.
4, Do not clean the door gasket. The
fiberglass material of the oven
door gasket cannot withstand
abrasion. It is essential for the
gasket to remain intact. If you
notice it becoming worn, frayed or
displaced on the door, it should be
replaced.
The door gasket is designed to have
a 5-6" gap at the bottom of the door.
This allows for proper air circulation.
Door Panel Gasket
It is normal for your oven door to give
the appearance of not having a good
seal against the range. This is due to
