iMPORTANT iNSTRUCTiONS FOR USING
YOUR COOKTOP
Use Proper Flame 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.
* Know which knob controls each surface
burner. Place a pan of food on the burner before turning it on, and then turn the burner
off before removing the pan.
* Always turn knob to the full LITE position
when igniting top burners. Visually check that
burner has lit. Then adjust the flame so it does not extend beyond the edge of the utensil.
* 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 adiacent surface burners
iMPORTANT SAFETY iNSTRUCTiONS
* Never leave surface burners unattended at
high heat seffings--Boilovers cause smoking
and greasy accumulations that may ignite, or a pan that has boiled dry may melt.
" Protective liners--Do not use aluminum foil
to line surface burner pans, or oven bottom, except as suggested in this manual, improper
installation of these liners may result in risk of
electric shock, or fire. Glazed cooking utensils--Only certain types
of glass, glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed utensils are suitable for cooktop
service without breaking due to the sudden change in temperature. Check the manufacturer's
recommendations for cooktop use.
iMPORTANT iNSTRUCTiONS FOR USING YOUR OVEN
* Use Care When Opening an Oven Door--Stand
to the side of the appliance when opening the door of a hot oven. Let hot air or steam escape
before you remove or replace food in the oven.
" Keep Oven Vent Ducts Unobstructed. The oven
is vented at the center trim above the oven and
below the console. Touching the surfaces in this
area when the oven is operating may cause severe burns. Also, do not place plastic or heat-
sensitive items near the oven vent. These items
could melt or ignite.
*Placement of Oven Racks. Always place
oven racks in desired location while oven is cool. Remove all utensils from the rack before
removing rack. If rack must be moved while
oven is hot, use extreme caution. Use pot
holders and grasp the rack with both hands to reposition. Do not let pot holders contact the
hot oven burner or interior of the oven.
Do not touch a hot oven light bulb with a damp cloth. Doing so could cause the bulb to
break. Disconnect the appliance or shut off: the power to the appliance before removing and
replacing the bulb.
iMPORTANT iNSTRUCTiONS FOR CLEANING
YOUR RANGE
* Clean the appliance 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. Greasy deposits in the fan could
catch fire. 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.
Clean in the serf-cleaning cycle only the parts of the appffance listed in this Use & Care
Guide. Before using the self-cleaning cycle of the appliance, remove the broiler pan and any
utensils stored in the appliance.
Do not clean the oven door gasket. The door
gasket isessential for a good seal. Care should be taken not to rub, damage or move the gasket.
" 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
appliance
The health of some birds is extremely
sensitive to the fumes given off: during the self- clean cycle of any oven. Move birds to another well ventilated room.
Do not use the broiler pan without its insert. The broiler pan and grid allow dripping fat to
drain and be kept away from the high heat of the broiler.
* Do not cover the broiler grid or oven bottom
with aluminum foil. Exposed fat and grease could ignite.

Cookware Material types
The cookware material determines how evenly and quickly heat is transferred from the surface unit to the pan bottom. The most popular materials available are:
ALUMINUM - Excellent heat conductor. Some types of food wiil cause it to darken (Anodized aluminum cookware resists staining & pitting).
COPPER - Excellent heat conductor but discolors easily.
STAINLESS STEEL - Slow heat conductor with uneven
cooking results. Is durable, easy to clean and resists staining.
CAST IRON - A poor heat conductor however will retain heat very well. Cooks evenly once cooking temperature is
reached.
PORCELAIN-ENAMEL on METAL - Heating characteristics wili vary depending on base material.
GLASS - Slow heat conductor.
Using a Wok (not supplied) 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 unit) 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.
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 wlfh a metal ring that extends beyond the burner unit. Because fhls ring traps heat, the surface unlf and cookfop surface could be damaged.
Before Setting Surface Controls
Check Burner Cap Placement Before Operating the Surface Burners
To prevent flare-ups and avoid creation of harmful by- products, do not use the cooktop without aii burner caps property installed to insure proper ignition and gas flame size.
It is very important to be sure that aii surface burner caps and burner grates are property installed and in the correct locations BEFORE operating the cooktop burners.
Remember:
° Always keep surface burner caps in place whenever using
a surface burner.
° When placing the burner caps, be sure that all burner caps
are seated firmly and rest level on top of burner heads.
° For proper flow of gas and ignition of burners DO NOT
aflow spills, food, cleaning agents or any other material
to enter the gas orifice port opening. Round Style Burners The burner cap lip (See Fig. 1) should fit snug into the center
of burner head and rest level. Refer to Figs. 2 & 3 for correct and incorrect burner cap placement. Once in place, you may check the fit by gently sliding the burner cap from side to side (Fig. 4) to be sure it is centered and firmly seated. When the burner cap lip makes contact inside the center of the burner head you will be able to feel it. Please note that the burner cap should NOT move off the center of the burner head when sliding from side to side.
Double Ring Style Burners The Double Ring burner only operates property with two
burner caps in place. Be sure the burner cap lips are positioned facing down towards the burner head (Fig. 5) and into the recessed areas (Fig. 6) on each side of the burner head. Be sure both burner caps are seated firmly and rest level on the burner head before operating.
Check the fit for each cap using the same method for the round burner caps by gently sliding each cap from side to side. Please note that the burner cap lips should NOT move
out of recessed areas of the burner head.

Setting Surface Controls
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 setfinc needed for cooking.
High Flame Start most foods; bring water to a boil;
pan broiling.
Medium Flame Maintain a slow boil; thicken sauces,
ii
Low Flame Keep foods cooking; poach; stewing.
_These settings are based on using medlum-welght metal or aluminum pans wlfh llds. 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 dear, 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.
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.
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 1).
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 so quickly that the center will be undercooked. Do not attempt to deep fat fry too much food at once as the food will neither brown nor cool< properly.
