IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USE
IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE
Enforcement Act requires the Governor of California to publish a list of substances known to the state to cause birth defects or other reproductive harm, and requires businesses to warn customers of potential exposure to such substances.
Gas appliances can cause minor exposure to four of these substances, namely benzene, carbon monoxide, formaldehyde and soot, caused primarily by the imperfect combustion of natural or LP gas. Correctly adjusted burners, indicated by a bluish rather than a yellow flame, will minimize imperfect combustion. Exposure to these substances can be minimized by opening windows or using a ventilation fan or hood.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Have the installer show you the location of the range gas shut-off valve and how to shut it off if necessary.
Make sure your range is properly installed and grounded by a qualified installer, according to the installation instructions. Any adjustment and service should be performed only by qualified gas range installers or service technicians.
Plug your range into a 120-volt grounded outlet only. Do not remove the round grounding prong from the plug. If in doubt about the grounding of the home electrical system, it is your personal responsibility and obligation to have an ungrounded outlet replaced with a properly grounded, three-prong outlet in accordance with the National Electrical Code. Do not use an extension cord with this range.
DO NOT use an adapter plug, an extension cord, or
remove grounding prong from electrical power cord to prevent fire hazard or electrical shock. Failure to follow this warning can cause serious injury, fire or death.
To prevent poor air circulation, place the range out of kitchen traffic path and out of drafty locations.
DO NOT attempt to repair or replace any part of your range unless it is specifically mentioned in this manual. All other service should be referred to a qualified technician.
Make sure all packaging materials are removed from the range before operating it to prevent fire or smoke damage should the packaging material ignite.
• DO NOT step or sit on the door. Install the Anti­Tip Bracket packed with range.
- The range could be tipped and injury might result
from spilled hot liquid, food, or the range itself.
- If the range is pulled away from the wall for cleaning,
service, or any other reason, ensure that the Anti-Tip Device is properly reengaged when the range is pushed back against the wall.
• To reduce the risk of tipping of the range, the range must be secured by properly installing anti-tip devices.
• To check that the anti-tip bracket is properly installed: Grasp the top rear edge of the range back guard and carefully attempt to tilt it forward. Verify that the anti­tip devices are engaged.
• Warming drawer or Storage drawer : Remove drawer and visually inspect that the rear leveling leg is fully inserted into the anti-tip bracket.
• Refer to the installation manual for proper anti-tip bracket installation.
ANTI-TIP DEVICE (continued)
Make sure your range is properly adjusted by a qualified service technician or installer for the type of gas (natural or LP) that is to be used. Your range can be converted for use with either type of gas. See the installation instructions.
After using your range for a long time, high floor temperatures may result and many floor coverings will not withstand this kind of use. Never install the range over vinyl tile or linoleum that cannot withstand such type of use. Never install it directly over interior kitchen carpeting.
DO NOT leave children alone or unattended where a range is hot or in operation. They could be seriously burned.
DO NOT let anyone climb, stand or hang on the oven door, warming drawer or cooktop. They could damage the range and even tip it over, causing severe personal injury.
NEVER wear loose fitting or hanging garments while using the appliance. Be careful when reaching for items placed in cabinets over the range. Flammable material could be ignited if brought in contact with flame or hot oven surfaces and may cause severe burns.
DO NOT place flammable materials in an oven, a
warming drawer or near a cooktop.
DO NOT place or use combustible materials such as
gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this or any other appliance.
DO NOT allow cooking grease or other flammable
materials in or near the range.
DO NOT use water on grease fires. Never touch a
flaming pan. Turn the controls off. Smother a flaming pan on a surface burner by covering the pan completely with a well-fitting lid, cookie sheet or flat tray. Use a multi-purpose dry chemical or foam-type fire extinguisher. A grease fire can be put out by covering it with baking soda or, if available, by using a multi-purpose dry chemical or foam-type fire extinguisher. Flame in the upper oven or lower oven drawer can be smothered completely by closing the oven door or drawer and turning the control to off or by using a multi-purpose dry chemical or foam-type fire extinguisher.
DO NOT use the oven or the drawer for storage.
Let the burner grates and other surfaces cool before
touching them.
NEVER block the vents (air holes) of the range.
They provide the air inlet and outlet that are necessary for the range to operate properly with correct combustion. Air openings are located at the rear of the cooktop, at the top and bottom of the oven door, and at the bottom of the range under the warming drawer.
Large scratches or impacts to glass doors can lead to broken or shattered glass.
Stepping, leaning or sitting on the doors or drawers of this range can result in serious injuries and also cause damage to the range. Do not allow children to climb or play around the range. The weight of a child on an open door may cause the range to tip, resulting in serious burns or other injury.
Leak testing of the appliance shall be conducted according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS (continued)
WARNING: NEVER use your
range as a space heater to heat or warm the room. Doing so may result in carbon monoxide poisoning and overheating of the oven.
CAUTION: Items of interest to
children should not be placed in cabinets above a range or on the backsplash of a range—children climbing on the range to reach items could be seriously injured.
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USE
WARNING: These adjustments
must be done by a qualified service technician according to the manufacturer’s instructions and all codes and requirements of the authority having jurisdiction. Failure to follow these instructions could result in serious injury or property damage. The qualified agency performing this work assumes responsibility for the conversion.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USE
SURFACE BURNERS
NEVER leave the surface burners unattended at
high flame settings. Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers that may catch on fire.
Always turn knob to the “LITE” position when
igniting the top burners and make sure the burners have ignited.
Control the top burner flame size so it does not extend beyond the edge of the cookware. Excessive flame is hazardous.
Use only dry pot holders—moist or damp pot holders on hot surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do not let pot holders come near open flames when lifting cookware. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth Instead of a pot holder.
Using glass cookware—make sure it is designed for top-of-range cooking.
To prevent burns, ignition of flammable materials and spillage, turn cookware handles toward the side or back of the range without extending over adjacent burners.
NEVER place any items on the cooktop. The hot air from the vent may ignite flammable items and will increase pressure in closed containers, which may cause them to burst.
Carefully watch foods being fried at a high flame setting.
Always heat fat slowly, and watch as it heats.
If frying combinations of oils and fats stir together
before heating.
Use a deep fat thermometer if possible to prevent overheating fat beyond the smoking point.
Use the least possible amount of fat for effective shallow or deep-fat frying. Filling the pan too full of fat can cause spillovers when food is added.
DO NOT flame foods on the cooktop.
DO NOT use a wok on the surface burners if the
wok has a round metal ring that is placed over the burner grate to support the wok. This ring acts as a heat trap, which may damage the burner grate and burner head. Also, it may cause the burner to work improperly. This may cause a carbon monoxide level above that allowed by current standards, resulting in a health hazard.
Foods for frying should be as dry as possible. Frost or moisture on foods can cause hot fat to bubble up and over the sides of the pan.
NEVER try to move a pan of hot fat, especially a deep fat fryer. Wait until the fat is cool.
DO NOT place plastic items on the cooktop—they may melt if left too close to the vent.
Keep all plastics away from the surface burners.
To prevent burns, always be sure that the controls
for all burners are at the “OFF” position and all grates are cool before attempting to remove them.
If you smell gas, turn off the gas to the range and call a qualified service technician. Never use an open flame to locate a leak.
Always turn knob to the “OFF” position before removing cookware.
DO NOT lift the cooktop. Lifting the cooktop can cause damage and improper operation of the range.
If range is located near a window, do not hang long curtains that could blow over the surface burners and catch on fire.
WARNING:
If the top burner flame goes out, gas is still flowing to the burner until the knob is turned to the “OFF” position. Do not leave the burners “ON” unattended.
Use proper pan size - DO NOT use pans that are unstable or easily tipped. Select cookware having flat bottoms large enough to cover burner grates. To avoid spillovers, make sure cookware is large enough to contain the food properly. This will both save cleaning time and prevent hazardous accumulations of food, since heavy spattering or spillovers left on range can ignite. Use pans with handles that can be easily grasped and remain cool.

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USE
SELF-CLEANING OVEN
Make sure to wipe off excess spillage before self­cleaning operation.
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. Residue from oven cleaners will damage the inside of the oven when the self-clean cycle is used.
Oven racks and accessories should be removed from the oven before self clean is started. Also remove any items placed in the bottom drawer before starting a self clean cycle.
Clean only parts listed in this manual.
DO NOT clean the door gasket. The door gasket is
necessary for a good seal. Care should be taken not to rub, damage or move the gasket.
If the self-cleaning mode malfunctions, turn the range off and disconnect the power supply. Let it serviced by a qualified technician.
COOK MEAT AND POULTRY THOROUGHLY
Cook meat and poultry thoroughly—meat to at least an INTERNAL temperature of 160°F and poultry to at least an INTERNAL temperature of 180°F.
To protect against foodborne illness, cook them to these temperatures.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USE
OVEN
When opening the door of a hot oven, stand away from the range. The hot air and steam that escape can cause burns to hands, face and eyes.
READ AND FOLLOW THIS SAFETY INFORMATION CAREFULLY.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
DO NOT heat closed food containers.
Pressure could increase and the container could burst, causing an injury.
DO NOT use aluminum foil anywhere in the oven
except as described in this manual. Doing so could create a fire hazard or cause damage to the range.
DO NOT use the oven for a storage area.
Items stored in the oven can catch on fire.
Keep the oven free from grease buildup.
Insert the oven racks in the desired position while
the oven is cool.
To prevent burns when removing food, slide racks out until the stop engages, then remove food items. It is also a precaution against burns from touching hot surfaces of the door or oven walls.
When placing or removing griddle always wear oven mitts.
When using cooking or roasting bags in the oven, follow the manufacturer’s directions.
Use only glass cookware that is recommended for use in gas ovens.
Always remove the broiler pan from the range after you finish broiling. Grease left in the pan can catch fire if oven is used without removing the grease from the broiler pan.
When broiling, if meat is too close to the flame, the fat may ignite. To prevent excessive flare-ups, trim excess fat.
Make sure the broiler pan is in place correctly to minimize the possibility of grease fires.
If you should have a grease fire in the broiler pan, press the “CLEAR OFF” pad, and keep the oven door closed to contain fire until it burns out.
For safety and better cooking performance, always bake and broil with the oven door closed.
WARNING: NEVER block 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.
NOTE: Open door baking or broiling can cause damage to the knobs or valves. DO NOT LEAVE THE OVEN DOOR OPEN DURING COOKING OR COOL DOWN.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
USING THE GAS SURFACE BURNERS
Throughout this manual, features and appearance may vary from your model.
Make sure all grates on the range are properly placed before using any burner.
Be sure the burners and grates are cooled down before you place your hand, a pot holder, cleaning cloths or other materials on them.
Make sure all burners are in place.
DO NOT operate the burner for an extended period
of time without cookware on the grate. The finish on the grate may chip without cookware to absorb the heat.
HOW TO LIGHT A GAS SURFACE BURNER
Be sure all the surface burners are placed in their respective positions.
Push the control knob in and turn it to the “LITE” position.
You will hear a little clicking noise— the sound of the electric spark igniting the burner.
To control the flame size, turn the knob. If the knob stays at “LITE”, it will continue to click.
When turning a burner to “LITE”, all the burners spark. Do not attempt to disassemble or clean around any burner while another burner is on. An electric shock may result, which could cause you to knock over hot cookware.
IN CASE OF POWER FAILURE
In case of a power failure, you can light the gas surface burners on your range with a match. Hold a lit match to the burner, then push in and turn the control knob to the “LITE” position. Use extreme caution when lighting burners this way.
Surface burners in use when an electrical power failure occurs will continue to operate normally.
SEALED GAS BURNERS
Your gas range cooktop has five sealed gas burners. They offer convenience, cleanability and flexibility to be used in a wide range of cooking applications.
The smallest burners are in the right rear position.
This burner can be turned down to a low simmer setting. It provides precise cooking performance for delicate foods such as sauces or foods that require low heat for a long cooking time.
The medium (left rear) and the large (left front) burners are the primary burners for most cooking. These general-purpose burners can be turned down from “HI” to “LO” to suit a wide range of cooking needs.
The extra large burner (right front) is the maximum output burner. Like the other four burners, it can be turned down from “HI” to “LO” for a wide range of cooking applications.
This burner is also designed to quickly bring large amounts of liquid to a boil. It can be used with cookware 10 inches or larger in diameter.
The oval burner (center) is for use with a griddle or oval pots.
NOTE: The right front burner, by design, is raised up from the cooktop. This is normal.
Push the control knob in and
turn it to the “LITE” position.

ENGLISH
USING THE GAS SURFACE BURNERS
HOW TO SELECT FLAME SIZE
NEVER let the flames extend up the sides of the cookware for safe handling of cookware.
Watch the flame, not the knob, as you reduce heat. When fast heating is desired, the flame size on a gas burner should match the cookware you are using.
Flames larger than the bottom of the cookware will not result in faster heating of the cookware and could be hazardous.
TOP-OF-RANGE COOKWARE
Aluminum: Medium-weight cookware is recommended because it heats quickly and evenly. Most of the foods brown evenly in an aluminum skillet. Use saucepans with tightfitting lids when cooking with minimum amounts of water.
Cast-Iron: If heated slowly, most skillets will give satisfactory results.
Stainless Steel: This metal alone has poor heating properties and is usually combined with copper, aluminum or other metals for improved heat distribution. Combination metal skillets usually work satisfactorily if they are used with medium heat as the manufacturer recommends.
Enamelware: Under some conditions, the enamel of some cookware may melt. Follow cookware manufacturer’s recommendations for cooking methods.
Glass: There are two types of glass cookware—those for oven use only and those for top-ofrange cooking (saucepans, coffee and teapots). Glass conducts heat very slowly.
Heatproof Glass Ceramic: Can be used for either surface or oven cooking. It conducts heat very slowly and cools very slowly. Check cookware manufacturer’s directions to be sure it can be used on gas ranges.
USING A WOK
DO NOT use a wok support ring. Placing the ring over the burner or grate may cause the burner to work improperly, resulting in carbon monoxide levels above allowable standards.
This can be hazardous to your health.
Only a flat-bottomed wok should be used.
We recommend that you use a 14-inch or smaller flatbottomed wok. Make sure the wok bottom sits flat on the grate. They are available at your local retail store.
STOVE-TOP GRILLS
DO NOT use stove top grills on your surface burners. If you use the stove top grill on the surface 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.
Use a flat-bottomed wok
