SAFETY INFORMATION

THE ANTI-TIP BRACKET

The range will not tip during normal use. However, the range can tip if you apply too much force or weight to the open door without the anti-tip bracket fastened down properly.

WARNING

Tip Over Hazard A child or adult can tip the range and be killed.

Verify the anti-tip bracket has been properly installed and engaged per installation instructions. Re-engage the anti-tip bracket if the range is moved.

Do not operate range without anti-tip bracket installed and engaged.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in death or serious burns to children and adults.

Anti-Tip

Bracket

Range Foot

To verify the anti-tip bracket is installed and engaged:

•Slide range forward.

•Look for the anti-tip bracket securely attached to floor or wall.

•Slide range back so rear range foot is under anti-tip bracket.

•See installation instructions for details.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, injury to persons, or damage when using the range, follow basic precautions, including the following:

■ WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF TIPPING OF THE RANGE, THE RANGE MUST BE SECURED BY PROPERLY INSTALLED ANTI-TIP DEVICES. TO CHECK IF THE DEVICES ARE INSTALLED PROPERLY, SLIDE RANGE FORWARD, LOOK FOR ANTI-TIP BRACKET SECURELY ATTACHED TO FLOOR OR WALL, AND SLIDE RANGE BACK SO REAR RANGE FOOT IS UNDER ANTI-TIP BRACKET.

■ WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF BURNS, DO NOT MOVE THE RANGE WHILE HOT. THIS RANGE IS PROVIDED WITH WHEELS TO FACILITATE MOVEMENT. TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY DUE TO TIPPING OF THE APPLIANCE, VERIFY THE REINSTALLATION OF THE RANGE INTO THE ANTI-TIP DEVICE PROVIDED, AND EXTEND LEVELING FEET AFTER RETURNING THE RANGE TO THE ORIGINAL INSTALLED POSITION.

■ WARNING: NEVER use this appliance as a space heater to heat or warm the room. Doing so may result in carbon monoxide poisoning and overheating of the oven.

■ WARNING: NEVER cover any slots, holes or passages in the oven bottom or cover an entire rack with materials such as aluminum foil. Doing so blocks air flow through the oven and may cause carbon monoxide poisoning. Aluminum foil linings may also trap heat, causing a fire hazard.

■ CAUTION: Do not store items of interest to children in cabinets above a range or on the backguard of a range – children climbing on the range to reach items could be seriously injured.

■Do Not Leave Children Alone – Children should not be left alone or unattended in area where the range is in use. They should never be allowed to sit or stand on any part of the range.

■Wear Proper Apparel – Loose-fitting or hanging garments should never be worn while using the range.

■User Servicing – Do not repair or replace any part of the range unless specifically recommended in the manual. All other servicing should be referred to a qualified technician.

■Storage in or on the Range – Flammable materials should not be stored in an oven or near surface units.

■Do Not Use Water on Grease Fires – Smother fire or flame or use dry chemical or foam-type extinguisher.

■Use Only Dry Potholders – Moist or damp potholders on hot surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do not let potholder touch hot heating elements. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth.

■DO NOT TOUCH SURFACE UNITS OR AREAS NEAR UNITS – Surface units may be hot even though they are dark in color. Areas near surface units may become hot enough to cause burns. During and after use, do not touch, or let clothing or other flammable materials contact surface units or areas near units until they have had sufficient time to cool. Among those areas are the cooktop and surfaces facing the cooktop.

■Never Leave Surface Units Unattended at High Heat Settings – Boilover causes smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite.

■Glazed Cooking Utensils – Only certain types of glass, glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed utensils are suitable for range-top service without breaking due to the sudden change in temperature.

SAFETY INFORMATION

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

■Utensil Handles Should Be Turned Inward and Not Extend Over Adjacent Surface Units – To reduce the risk of burns, ignition of flammable materials, and spillage due to unintentional contact with the utensil, the handle of a utensil should be positioned so that it is turned inward, and does not extend over adjacent surface units.

■Clean Cooktop With Caution – If a wet sponge or cloth is used to wipe spills on a hot cooking area, be careful to avoid steam burn. Some cleaners can produce noxious fumes if applied to a hot surface.

■Use Care When Opening Door – Let hot air or steam escape before removing or replacing food.

■Do Not Heat Unopened Food Containers – Build-up of pressure may cause container to burst and result in injury.

■Keep Oven Vent Ducts Unobstructed.

■Placement of Oven Racks – Always place oven racks in desired location while oven is cool. If rack must be moved while oven is hot, do not let potholder contact hot heating element in oven.

■DO NOT TOUCH HEATING ELEMENTS OR INTERIOR SURFACES OF OVEN – Heating elements may be hot even though they are dark in color. Interior surfaces of an oven become hot enough to cause burns. During and after use, do not touch, or let clothing or other flammable materials contact heating elements or interior surfaces of oven until they have had sufficient time to cool. Other surfaces of the appliance may become hot enough to cause burns – among these surfaces are oven vent openings and surfaces near these openings, oven doors, and windows of oven doors.

■Proper Installation – The range, when installed, must be electrically grounded in accordance with local codes or, in the absence of local codes, with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70. In Canada, the range must be electrically grounded in accordance with Canadian Electrical Code. Be sure the range is properly installed and grounded by a qualified technician.

■Disconnect the electrical supply before servicing the appliance.

■Injuries may result from the misuse of appliance doors or drawers such as stepping, leaning, or sitting on the doors or drawers.

■Maintenance – Keep range area clear and free from combustible materials, gasoline, and other flammable vapors and liquids.

■Top burner flame size should be adjusted so it does not extend beyond the edge of the cooking utensil.

For self-cleaning ranges –

■Do Not Clean Door Gasket – The door gasket is essential 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 oven.

■Clean Only Parts Listed in Manual.

■Before Self-Cleaning the Oven – Remove broiler pan and other utensils. Wipe off all excessive spillage before initiating the cleaning cycle.

For units with ventilating hood –

■Clean Ventilating Hoods Frequently – Grease should not be allowed to accumulate on hood or filter.

■When flambéing foods under the hood, turn the fan on.

WARNING

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.

	BTU/hr	BURNER	FEATURES
		APPEARANCE
	Large		This burner has an upper
	stacked		and lower level of flame.
	burner		The H setting uses both
			flame levels at full power to
			provide the highest heat.
			It is ideal for cooking large
			quantities of food or liquid
			and using large pots and
			pans. The Simmer H and
			L settings use the lower
			flame only.
	Large		This burner is ideal for
	burner		cooking large quantities of
			food.
	Small		This burner is ideal for
	burner		cooking smaller quantities
			of food and melting
			chocolate or butter.

Igniting Burners:

■■ Electric igniters automatically light the surface burners when burner knobs are turned to .

■■ Before setting a burner knob, place filled cookware on the grate. Do not operate a burner using empty cookware or without any cookware on the grate.

■■ Visually check that the burner has lit. If the burner does not ignite, listen for the clicking sound. If you do not hear the igniter click, turn off the burner. Check for a tripped circuit breaker or blown fuse. Check that the burner knob is pressed completely down

on the valve shaft. If the spark igniter still does not operate, call a trained repair specialist.

■■ When the burner knob for the desired burner is turned to the position, the burner will click independent of the other

burners.

REMEMBER: When range is in use or during the SelfCleaning cycle, the entire cooktop area may become hot.

Reignition Feature

During cooktop use, if one or more burners are extinguished due to external causes (such as a water spill, wind, or ventilation draft), the ignition system will turn on to reignite the flame. When the flame comes back on, the system will

stop sparking. If the draft in the room is not removed, occasional sparking may continue. Sparking may also occasionally occur when using the low setting on a burner.

To Set a Burner:

USING YOUR OVEN

OVEN USE

Odors and smoke are normal when the oven is used the first few times, or when it is heavily soiled.

During oven use, the heating elements will not remain on, but will cycle on and off throughout oven operation.

IMPORTANT: The health of some birds is extremely sensitive to the fumes given off. Exposure to the fumes may result in death to certain birds. Always move birds to another closed and wellventilated room.

Aluminum Foil

IMPORTANT: To avoid permanent damage to the oven bottom finish, do not line the oven bottom with any type of foil or liner.

■■ For best cooking results, do not cover rack with foil because air must be able to move freely.

■■ To catch spills, place foil on rack below dish. Make sure foil is at least 1/2" (1.3 cm) larger than the dish and that it is turned up at the edges.

Positioning Racks and Bakeware

IMPORTANT: To avoid permanent damage to the porcelain finish, do not place food or bakeware directly on the oven door or bottom.

Racks

■■ Position racks before

turning on the oven.	5
■■ Do not position racks	4

2.Using 2 hands, lift up on the front edge of the rack assembly. Slowly push the rack assembly to the back wall of the oven so the front edge of the sliding shelf sits on the rack guides on the side of the oven cavity. The front edge of the rack should be higher than the back edge.

3.Using 2 hands, lift up the back of the rack assembly so that the front and back are level on the rack guides.

4.Pull the rack assembly out.

To avoid damage to the sliding shelves, do not place more than 25 lbs (11.4 kg) on the rack.

Do not clean the roll-out rack in a dishwasher. It may remove the rack’s lubricant and affect its ability to slide.

See the “General Cleaning” section for more information.

When placing racks in adjacent positions, start by loading the lower rack positions first and then installing the rack in the position immediately above it.

Oven Vent

The oven vent should

not be blocked or covered since it allows the release of hot air and moisture from the oven. Blocking or covering the 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.

Cooling Fan

1

1 Oven vent

The oven has a dual speed cooling fan motor.

When the oven temperature is in the Self-Cleaning cycle, the fan will operate at its highest speed to increase airflow and better exhaust the hotter air through the oven vent(s). An increase in noise may be noticeable until the oven cools.

NOTE: Cooling fan may continue to run after the oven has been turned off.

NOTE: The Start button will pulse white to prompt the user to press the Start button.

2.Press the Start button to begin oven function.

When a knob selection is made, and after some time of inactivity, the Start Button Indicator Light will quickly blink to prompt for the Start button to be pressed.

If no action is taken after 2 minutes, a tone will sound and the unit will timeout and return to idle mode.

To exit the unit from idle mode, reselect a mode and Temperature Knob selection before pressing the Start button.

NOTE: The unit goes through a validity check to verify that the selected mode and temperature combination is valid.

If a valid combination has been selected, the knob light and the Start button indicator light will be on. The Start button will begin to blink prompting for action.

If an invalid combination has been selected, the knob indicator lights will blink to show that the selected mode and temperature combination is invalid and a invalid tone will sound.

Changing a Mode, Temperature, while Oven is Active

If the Mode Knob is changed during a cycle to a selection that is valid, the Start button will blink and must be pressed in order to change the mode.

NOTE: The unit will not change modes until the Start button has been pressed.

If the Temperature Knob is changed during a cycle to a selection that is valid, the temperature will automatically change.

If the Mode/Temperature Knob is changed during a cycle to a selection that is invalid and the unit was in a previous cycle, the unit will remain in the previous cycle until corrected.

The knob indicator lights will illuminate to show an invalid selection has been made and will continue to light until corrected.

To Turn Off Oven:

Turn the Temperature Knob to the OFF position.

BAKE

The Bake mode relies primarily on heat from the lower bake element and radiant heat from the oven cavity to produce the perfect conditions for cakes, cookies, quick breads, yeast breads, meatloaf, and baked desserts. This mode is perfect for foods that require both upper and lower browning.

Know Your Bake Mode

■■ During baking, the appropriate heating

elements and fan(s) 1 will cycle on and off in

intervals to maintain the oven temperature.

■■ Bake is used to cook
up to 2 racks of food.	2

■■ For best results, allow

the oven to preheat 3 prior to placing food in

the oven.

■■ If the oven door is opened during baking, the bake burner will turn off approximately 30 seconds after

the door is opened. It will turn on again approximately

30 seconds after the door is closed.

3Bake element

BROIL

The Broil mode uses intense heat from above to cook foods quickly and is ideal when you want rich, flavorful browning of exterior surfaces. Use for steak, chicken, pork, fish, or vegetables like onions and peppers. This mode can also brown and crisp desserts or casserole toppings.

Know Your Broil Mode

■■ Broiling uses direct radiant heat to cook

food. 1

■■ The broil burner cycles

on and off in intervals to maintain the oven

temperature.

■■ If the oven door is opened during broiling, the broil element will

turn off in approximately 1 Broil 30 seconds. When the

oven door is closed, the elements will come back on approximately

30 seconds after the door is closed.

■■ For best results, use a broiler pan and grid. It is designed to drain juices and help avoid spatter and smoke.

■■ For proper draining, do not cover the grid with foil. The bottom of the broiler 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.

■■ When broiling, changing the temperature allows more precise control. Lowering the temperature causes food to cook slower. Thicker cuts and unevenly shaped pieces of meat, fish, and poultry may cook better at lower broiling temperatures.

■■ 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 of food from the oven. Drippings will bake on the pan if left in the heated oven, making cleaning more difficult.

To Use Broil:

For best results, preheat oven for 5 minutes. Position food on the grid on the broiler pan, then place pan in the center of the oven rack and center your pan under the broil element.
