COOKTOP USE
A. Right rear control knob
B. Left rear control knob
C. Center burner
D. Right front control knob
E.Left front control knob
£ Surface burner locater
Electric igniters automatically light the surface burners when
control knobs are turned to LIGHT.
The large burners (16,000, 14,000 and 12,500 Btu/h [British
Thermal Units]) provide the highest heat setting, and are ideal for
cooking large quantities of food or liquid, using large pots and
pans. The small burners (9,200 and 5,000 Btu/h) allow more
accurate simmer control at the lowest setting, and are ideal for
cooking smaller quantities of food, using smaller pots and pans.
Before setting a control knob, place filled cookware on the grate.
Do not operate a burner while using empty cookware or without
any cookware on the grate.
NOTE: Visually check that the burner has lit. If the burner does
not ignite, listen for a clicking sound. Ifyou do not hear the igniter
click, turn the burner off. Check for a tripped circuit breaker or
blown household fuse.
Check that the control knob is pressed completely down on the
valve shaft. If the spark igniter still does not operate, call a trained
repair specialist.
To Set:
1. Push in and turn knob counterclockwise to LIGHT.
All four surface burners will click. Only the burner with the
control knob turned to LIGHT will produce aflame.
2. Turn knob anywhere between HI and LO. Use the following
chart as a guide when setting heat levels.
SETTING RECOMMENDED USE
Fire Hazard
Do not let the burner flame extend beyond the edge of
the pan.
Turn off all controls when not cooking.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death
or fire.
IMPORTANT: Your range is factory-set for use with Natural gas. If
you wish to use LP gas, an LP Gas Conversion Kit is included
with your new range. See the "Gas Conversions" section of the
Installation Instructions for details on making this conversion.
LIGHT • Light the burner.
HI • Start food cooking.
• Bring liquid to a boil.
MED (Medium) • Hold a rapid boil.
• Quickly brown or sear food.
• Fry or saute foods.
• Cook soups, sauces and gravies.

• Simmer.
REMEMBER: When range is in use or (on some models)
during the Self-Cleaning cycle, the entire cooktop area may
become hot. I
Surface Burners
In case of prolonged power failure, the surface burners can be lit
manually. Hold a lit match near a burner and turn knob
counterclockwise to ignite. After burner lights, turn knob to
desired setting.
A. Burner cap
B. Burner base
C. Alignment pins
D. Igniter
E. Gas tube opening
IMPORTANT: Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and
ventilation air around the burner grate edges.
Burner cap: Always keep the burner cap in place when using a
surface burner. A clean burner cap will help avoid poor ignition
and uneven flames. Always clean the burner cap after a spillover
and routinely remove and clean the caps according to the
"General Cleaning" section.
Gas tube opening: Gas must flow freely throughout the gas tube
opening for the burner to light properly. Keep this area free of soil
and do not allow spills, food, cleaning agents or any other
material to enter the gas tube opening. Keep spillovers out of the
gas tube by always using a burner cap.
3.
Clean clogged burner ports with a straight pin as shown. Do
not enlarge or distort the port. Do not use a wooden
toothpick. If the burner needs to be adjusted, contact a
trained repair specialist.
4.
Replace the burner cap, making sure the alignment pins are
properly aligned with the burner cap.
A. Incorrect
B. Correct
5. Turn on the burner. Ifthe burner does not light, check cap
alignment. Ifthe burner still does not light, do not service the
sealed burner yourself. Contact a trained repair specialist.

When canning for long periods, alternate the use of surface
burners between batches. This allows time for the most recently
used areas to cool.
• Center the canner on the grate.
• Do not place canner on 2 surface burners at the same time.
• For more information, contact your local agricultural
department. Companies that manufacture home canning
products can also offer assistance.
A. 1-1W' (25-38mm)
B. Burner ports
Burner ports: Check burner flames occasionally for proper size
and shape as shown above. A good flame is blue in color, not
yellow. Keep this area free of soil and do not allow spills, food,
cleaning agents or any other material to enter the burner ports.
To Clean:
IMPORTANT: Before cleaning, make sure all controls are off and
the oven and cooktop are cool. Do not use oven cleaners, bleach
or rust removers.
1. Remove the burner cap from the burner base and clean
according to "General Cleaning" section.
2. Clean the gas tube opening with a damp cloth.
IMPORTANT: Do not leave empty cookware on a hot surface
cooking area, element or surface burner.
Ideal cookware should have a flat bottom, straight sides and a
well-fitting lid, and the material should be of medium-to-heavy
thickness.
Rough finishes may scratch the cooktop or grates. Aluminum and
copper may be used as a core or base in cookware. However,
when used as a base they can leave permanent marks on the
cooktop or grates.
Cookware material is a factor in how quickly and evenly heat is
transferred, which affects cooking results. A nonstick finish has
the same characteristics as its base material. For example,
aluminum cookware with a nonstick finish will take on the
properties of aluminum.
Cookware with nonstick surfaces should not be used under the
broiler.

On models without a temperature probe, use a meat
thermometer to determine whether meat, poultry and fish, are
cooked to the desired degree of doneness. The internal
temperature, not appearance, should be used to determine
doneness. A meat thermometer is not supplied with this
appliance.
• Insert the thermometer into the center of the thickest portion
of the meat or inner thigh and breast of poultry. The tip of the
thermometer should not touch fat, bone or gristle.
• After reading the thermometer once, push it into the meat
_/_"(1.3 cm) more and read again. If the temperature drops,
cook the meat or poultry longer.
• Check all meat, poultry and fish in 2 or 3 different places.

A. Oven vent
The oven vent releases hot air and moisture from the oven, and
should not be blocked or covered. Blocking or covering the oven
vent will cause poor air circulation, affecting cooking and
cleaning results. Do not set plastics, paper or other items that
could melt or burn near the oven vent.
Before baking, position racks according to the "Positioning
Racks and Bakeware" section.
• Ifthe lower oven is not in use, the upper oven will preheat
more quickly.
• Allow at least 1/2"(1.3 cm) between the baking pan or
casserole and the top element in the upper oven. Loaf, angel
food or bundt pans are not recommended in the upper oven.
• When baking frozen, self-rise pizza in the upper oven, place
the pizza on a cookie sheet to avoid overbrowning.
When preheating with a baking/pizza stone inside the upper
oven, do not set oven above 400°F (205°C). To use baking/
pizza stones at temperatures above 400°F (205°C) in the
upper oven, put stone in after the preheat beep.

Broiling uses direct radiant heat to cook food. Changing the
temperature when broiling allows more precise control when
cooking. The lower the temperature, the slower the cooking.
Thicker cuts and unevenly shaped pieces of meat, fish and
poultry may cook better at lower broiling temperatures.
• For best results, use a broiler pan and grid. They are
designed to drain juices and help avoid spatter and smoke.
If you would like to purchase a broiler pan, one may be
ordered. See "Assistance or Service" section to order. Ask for
Part Number 12500100.
• For proper draining, do not cover the grid with foil. The
bottom of the pan may be lined with aluminum foil for easier
cleaning.
• Trim excess fat to reduce spattering. Slit the remaining fat on
the edges to avoid curling.
• Pull out oven rack to stop position before turning or removing
food. Use tongs to turn food to avoid the loss of juices. Very
thin cuts of fish, poultry or meat may not need to be turned.
• After broiling, remove the pan from the oven when removing
the food. Drippings will bake on the pan if left in the heated
oven, making cleaning more difficult.
Before broiling, position rack according to the Broiling Chart.
Preheat broil about 4 minutes. Position food on grid in the broiler
pan, then place it in the center of the oven rack. Close the door.
To Broil:
1. Press BROIL. "BROIL," "UPPER," and "SEt" will flash in the
display until the door is closed.
2. Press the AUTOSET pad once to set HI Broil or twice to set
LO Broil. "HI" or "LO" will be displayed.
Select HI Broil (550°F/288°C) for normal broiling or LO Broil
(450°F/232°C) for low-temperature broiling.
After 4 seconds, the oven will start. "BROIL," "UPPER," and
"HI" or "LO" will remain lit.
3. Press Upper Oven CANCEL or UPPER STOP when finished
broiling.

During convection cooking, the fan provides increased hot air
circulation continuously and more consistently throughout the
oven. The movement of heated air around the food helps to
speed up cooking by penetrating the cooler outer surfaces. Food
cooks more evenly, browning and crisping outer surfaces while
sealing moisture inside.
During the Convect function, the ring element operates, along
with the fan, to provide an indirect source of heat in the oven
cavity. If the oven door is opened during convection cooking or
preheating, the element(s) and fan will turn off immediately. Once
the door is closed, they will come back on.
• It is important not to cover foods so that surface areas remain
exposed to the circulating air, allowing browning and crisping.
• Keep heat loss to a minimum by only opening the oven door
when necessary.
• Choose cookie sheets without sides and roasting pans with
lower sides to allow air to move freely around the food.
• Test baked goods for doneness a few minutes before the
minimum cooking time with a method such as a toothpick.
• Use a meat thermometer to determine the doneness of meats
and poultry. Check the temperature of pork and poultry in 2 or
3 different places, including the thickest part.
• Before convection cooking, position the rack(s) according to
the "Positioning Racks and Bakeware" section.
When using more than one rack, position bakeware/
cookware on the racks to allow movement of the fan
circulated air around the food. See the "Positioning Racks
and Bakeware" section.
If the oven is full, extra cooking time may be needed.
For optimal cooking results, do not cover food.
When roasting poultry and meat, use a broiler pan and grid. It
is not necessary to wait for the oven to preheat, unless
recommended in the recipe.
