IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING
YOUR COOl(TOP
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 efflciency.
• 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 adjacent surface burners
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
• Never leave surface burners unattended at
high heat settingsmBoilovers cause smoking
and greasy accumulations that may ignite, or
a pan that has boiled dry may melt.
• Protective linersmDo 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

Before Setting Oven Controls
Oven Vent Location
The oven is vented in the center rear on the cooktop. When
the oven is on, warm air is released through the vent. This
venting is necessary for proper air circulation in the oven
and good baking results. DO NOT BLOCK OVEN VENT.
Oven Vent
_Some
models are equipped
with a blower which
runs in baking and
self-cleaning mode
to keep all internal
components at a cool
temperature. The
blower may keep run-
ning even if the oven
has been turned off:,
until the components
have cooled down.
Arranging Oven Racks
Always use pot holders or oven mitts when
adjusting the oven racks. Wait until the oven has completely
cooled if possible. Oven racks may be HOT and cause burns.
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.
@
Air Circulation in the Oven
If using 1 rack, place in center of oven. If using multiple
racks, stagger cookware as shown.
For best air circulation and baking results allow 2-4" (5-10
cm) around the cookware for proper air circulation and be
sure pans and cookware do not touch each other, the oven
door, sides or back of the oven cavity. The hot air must
circulate around the pans and cookware in the oven for even
heat to reach around the food.

Surface Cookware Recommendations
Use Proper Cookware
Cookware should have fiat bottoms that make good contact
with the cooktop grate. Check for flatness by rotating a
ruler across the bottom of the cookware (See Figure 1). Be
sure to follow the recommendations for using cookware as
shown in Figure 2.
Note: The size and type of cookware used will influence the
setting needed for best cooking results.
Note: Always use a utensil for its intended purpose. Follow
manufacturer's instructions. Some utensils were not made to
be used in the oven or on the cooktop.
q
Figure 1
CORRECT
• Flat bottom and straight
sides.
• Tight fitting lids.
• Weight of handle does
not tilt pan. Pan is well
balanced.
• Pan sizes match the
amount of food to be
prepared.
• Made of material that
conducts heat well.
• Easy to clean.
INCORRECT
• Curved and warped pan bot-
toms.
• Pan overhangs unit by more
than 2.5 cm (1").
• Heavy handle tilts pan.
• Flame extends beyond unit.
W .....
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
will 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
will vary depending on base material.
GLASS - Slow heat conductor.
Using a Wok (notsupplied)
Woks with fiat 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 isequipped with
a metal ring that extends beyond the
burner unit. Because this ring traps heat,
the surface unit and cooktop 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 all burner caps
properly installed to insure proper ignition and gas flame size.
It is very important to be sure that all surface burner caps
and burner grates are properly 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
allow 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 properly 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 setting needed for cooking.
High Flame Start most foods; bring water to a boil;
pan broiling.
Medium Flame Maintain a slow boil; thicken sauces,
ii
_These settings are based on using medium-weight metal
or aluminum pans with lids. 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 clear, 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.
gravies; steaming.
Setting the Regular or Simmer Burners
1. Place cooking utensil on surface burner.
2. Push the surface control knob down and turn
counterclockwise out of the OFF position (See Figure 2).
3. Release the knob and rotate to the LITE position.
4. Visually check that the burner has a flame.
5. Once the burner is lit, continue to turn counterclockwise
to the desired flame size. The control knobs do not have
to be set at a particular setting. Use the knob indicator
settings to adjust the flame as needed.
Never extend the flame beyond the outer edge of the
utensil. A higher flame wastes heat and energy and
W
Improper

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 istoo
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 cook properly.
_Do not place such as
foil, salt and pepper shakers, spoon holders or plastic
wrappings on top of the range when it is in use. These
items could melt or ignite. Potholders, towels or wood spoons
could catch fire if placed too close to a flame.
Manual Lighting
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. After burner lights push in and turn
knob to desired setting. Use caution when lighting surface
burners manually.

Important notes:
• DO NOT cook with the surface control knob left in the
LITE position. (The electronic ignitor will continue to spark
if the control knob setting remains in the LITE position).
• When setting any surface control knob to the LITE
position, all electronic surface ignitors will spark at the
same time. However, only the surface burner you are
setting will ignite.
• NEVER place or straddle a cooking utensil over two
difl:erent surface cooking areas at the same time. This
can cause uneven heating results.
Setting Surface Controls
Setting the Turbo Boil Flex Twin Burner
The versatile Turbo Boil Flex Twin Burner offers a complete
range of gas surface settings from the same Burner position.
At the lowest setting, only the Burner's inner ring is active,
providing a smaller flame that is perfect for simmering. If
needed, the Burner's outer ring may be added and when set
for HI will provide a gas flame that may be used to Bring a
large pan of liquid to Boil quickly.
Operating the Turbo Boil Flex Twin Burner
1. Place cooking utensil on surface Burner.
2. Push the surface control knob down and turn
counterclockwise out of the OFF position (See Figure 1).
3. Release the knob and rotate to the Lite position.
4. Visually check that Both the inner and outer rings for
the Twin Burner are lit (See Figure 3). Once lit, turn the
control knob and continue to turn counterclockwise out
of the Lite position and adjust to the desired flame size.
5. When adjusting for a low or simmer type flame setting,
continue to rotate the control knob counterclockwise from
