items, such as cookbooks, plasticware and towels, aswell as flammable liquids.Do not store explosives,suchasaerosolcans, on or nearthe appliance. Flammablematerialsmayexplodeand

result in fire or property damage.

Do not leave children alone--Children should not be left alone or unattended in the area where appliance

is in use. They should never be allowed to sit or stand on any part of the appliance.

DO NOTTOUCH SURFACE BURNERS,AREAS NEAR

THESEBURNERS,OVEN HEATING ELEMENTS OR

INTERIOR SURFACES OFTHE OVEN ORWARMER

DRAWER (if equipped). Both surface burners and oven

heating elements may be hot even though they are dark in

color. Areas near surface burners may become hot enough

to cause burns. During and after use, do not touch, or let

clothing or other flammable materials touch these areas

until they have had sufficient time to cool. Among these

areas are the cooktop, surfaces facing the cooktop, the

oven vent openings and surfaces near these openings,

oven door and window.

Wear proper apparel--Loose-fitting or hanging

garments should never be worn while using the

appliance. Do not let clothing or other flammable

materials contact hot surfaces.

Do not use water or flour on grease fires--Smother

the fire with a pan lid, or use baking soda, a dry

chemical or foam-type extinguisher.

When heating fat or grease, watch it closely. Fat or

grease may catch fire if allowed to become too hot.

In case of fire or gas leak, be sure to turn

off the main gas shutoff valve.

Use only dry potholders--Moist or damp potholders

on hot surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do

not let potholders touch hot heating elements. Do not use

a towel or other bulky cloth instead of a potholder.

• Do not heat unopened food containers--Buildup of pressure may cause container to burst and result in injury.

• Remove the oven door from any unused range if it is to be stored or discarded.

IMPORTANT--Do not attempt to operate the oven during a power failure. If the power fails, always turn the oven off. If the oven is not turns off and the power resumes, the oven may begin to operate again. Food left unattended could catch fire or spoil.

Use proper pan size--Adjust flame size

so it does not extend beyond the edge of the utensil. The use of undersize utensils will exposed 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.

Do not usestove top grills on the burner

grates of sealed gas burners. If you use a stove top grill on a sealed gas burner, it will cause incomplete combustion and can result in exposure to carbon monoxide levels above allowable current standards. This can be hazardous to your

health.

Electronic controllers can be damaged by

cold temperatures. When you use your appliance for the first time, or if it has not been used for a long period of time, make sure that it has been exposed to a temperature above 0°C/32°F for at least 3 hours before connecting it to the power supply.

IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING YOUR

COOKTOP

• Know which knob controls each surface heating unit. Always turn the knob to the LITEposition when igniting

the burners. Visually check that burner has lit. Then adjust the flame so it does not extend beyond the edge of the

utensil.

Use proper pan size. This appliance is equipped with one or more surface burners of different sizes. Select utensils

having flat bottoms large enough to cover the surface burner. The use of undersized utensils will expose a portion

of the surface burner to direct contact and may result in ignition of clothing. Proper relationship of utensil to the

surface burner will also improve efficiency.

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 isturned inward, and does not extend over adjacent surface

burners.

Never leave surface burners unattended at high heat settings--Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers

that may ignite, or a pan that has boiled dry may melt.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Protective liners--Do not use aluminum foil to line oven

bottom or any other part of the appliance. Only use aluminum foil as recommended for baking if used as a cover placed on the food. Any other use of protective liners or aluminum foil may result in a risk of electric shock

or fire or short circuit.

Glazed cooking utensils--Only certain types of glass, glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed utensils are suitable for rangetop service without breaking due to the sudden change in temperature. Check the manufacturer's recommendations for rangetop use.

• Placement of oven/warmer drawer (if equipped) racks. Always place oven racks in desired location while oven/ warmer drawer (if equipped) iscool. If rack must be

moved while oven is hot use extreme caution. Use potholders and grasp the rack with both hands to

reposition. Do not let potholders contact the hot heating elements in the oven/warmer drawer (if equipped). Remove all utensils from the rack before moving.

• Do not use the broiler pan without its insert. The

broiler pan and its insert allow dripping fat to drain and be kept away from the high heat of the broiler.

Do not use decorative surface burner covers. If a burner is accidentally turned on, the decorative cover will

become hot and possibly melt. Burns will occur if the hot covers are touched. Damage may also be done to the cooktop or burners because the covers may cause overheating. Air will be blocked from the burner and cause combustion problems.

FOR GLASS COOKTOPS ONLY

• Do not clean or operate a broken cooktop--lf cooktop

should break, cleaning solutions and spillovers may penetrate the broken cooktop and create a risk of electric shock. Contact a qualified technician immediately.

• Clean cooktop glass with caution--If a wet sponge or cloth is used to wipe spills on a hot cooking area, be careful to avoid a steam burn. Some cleaners can produce harmful fumes if applied to a hot surface.

• Do not place hot cookware on cold cooktop glass. This could cause glass to break.

• Avoid scratching the cooktop glass with sharp objects.

IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING YOUR

OVEN

• Use care when opening oven door or warmer drawer (if equipped)--Stand to the side of the range when

opening the door of a hot oven. Let hot air or steam escape before you remove or replace food in the oven/

warmer drawer.

• Keep oven vent ducts unobstructed. The oven vent is located at the rear of the cooktop. Touching the surfaces in this area when the oven is operating may cause severe burns. Also, do not place plastic or heat-sensitive items on or near the oven vent. These items could melt or ignite.

• Do not cover the broiler insert with aluminum foil. Exposed fat and grease could ignite.

• Do not touch a hot light bulb with a damp cloth. Doing so could cause the bulb to break. Disconnect the appliance or turn off the power to the appliance before removing and replacing light bulb.

IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR CLEANING

YOUR RANGE

• Clean the range regularly to keep all parts free of

grease that could catch fire. Exhaustfan ventilation

hoods and grease filters should be kept clean. Do not allow grease to accumulate on hood or filter. Greasy deposits in

the fan could catch fire. When you are flaming food under the hood, turn the fan on. 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.

SELF CLEANING OVENS

• In the self-Cleaning cycle only clean the parts listed in

this Use and Care Guide. Before self cleaning the oven,

remove the broiler pan and any utensils or foods from the

oven.

• 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 oven.

• Do not clean door gasket--The door gasket isessential

for a good seal. Care should be taken not to rub, damage

or move the gasket.

• Remove oven racks. Oven racks color will change if left in

the oven during a self-cleaning cycle.

• _ The health of some birds is extremely

sensitive to the fumes given off during the self- cleaning cycle of the range. Move the birds to another

well ventilated room.

USING THE WOK STAND

The Wok Stand provided with your range isdesigned to allow only round-bottomed woks up to 14 inches in diameter (35.5 cm).

The Wok Stand must be used on either of the front burners, although it is recommended that you use the larger burner for best performance.

If properly positioned, the Wok Stand cannot be slid off the grate.

To properly position the Wok Stand:

With the grate in position over the burner, set the Wok Stand on top of the grate. Turn the Wok Stand, as shown, until the grate fingers fit into the slots on the bottom of the stand.

Be sure the grate stand ispositioned correctly and stably before useto prevent

hot spills and possible burns.

For deep fat frying, use athermometer and adjust the surface control knob accordingly. If the fat istoo 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.

*Flame Size Type of Cooking High Flame Start most foods; bring water to a boil; pan broiling Medium Flame Maintain a slow boil; thicken sauces, gravies; steam Low Flame Keep foods cooking; poach; stew

*These settings are based on using medium-weight aluminum pans with lids. Settings

may vary when using other types of pans.

Never extend the flame beyond the outer edge of the utensil. A higher flame simply wastes heat and energy, and increases your risk of being burned by the flame.

Proper Burner Adjustments

The color of the flame isthe key to proper burner adjustment A good flame is clear, blue and hardly visible in a well-lighted room. Eachcone of flame should be steady and sharply defined. Adjust or clean burner if flame isyellow-orange. To adjust the flame see the Installation Instructions and to clean burner, see instructions under General Cleaning,

Make sure each burner cap is properly aligned and

level. Turn the burner on to

determine if it will light. If the burner does not light,

contact a Sears Service Center. Do not service the

sealed burner yourself.

Placement of Burner Bases and Caps

Your Cooktop isequipped with three different sized

burners: Power Burner, Standard Burner and Simmer Burner.

Placethe burner base over each gas opening, matching the burner base sizewith the gas opening size. Place the burner cap on each burner base,

again matching the cap size to the burner base size. The cap for the each Burner has a inner locating ring which locates the burner cap inthe center of the

burner.

Your cooktop may beequipped with any combination of the following burners: Simmer Burner; this burner is best used for simmering delicate sauces, etc. Standard Burner; can be used for most all surface cooking needs. Large Burner; the larger burner isbest used when bringing large quantities of liquid to temperature

and when preparing larger quantities of food. Regardless of size, always select a utensil that issuitable 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.

Your cooktop isalso equipped with 270 ° rotation valves. These valves provide enhanced control of the burner flame. Eachburner lights automatically from an electric ignitor when its control knob is turned to the LITE position.

Do not place plastic items such as salt and pepper shakers, spoon holders or plastic wrappings on top of the cooktop 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.

To operate the surface burner:

1. Place cooking utensil on burner.

2. Push in and turn the Surface Control knob to LITE. Note: All electronic ignitors will click at the

same time. However, only the burner you are turning on will ignite.

3. Visually check that the burner has lit.

4. Push in and turn the SurfaceControl Knob to the desired flame size.The control knobs do not

have to be set at a particular mark. Use the guides and adjust the flame as needed. DO NOT cook with the Surface Control knob in the LITEposition. (Theelectronic ignitor will continue to click if left in the LITE position, causing premature wear.)

Inthe event of an electrical power outage, the surface burners can be lit manually. To light asurface burner, hold a lit match to the burner head, then slowlyturn the Surface Control knob to LITE Use caution when lighting surface burners manually.

NOTE: White glass surface can appear green when it is hot, which is normal, and it

will come back to white when it cools down.
