HAZARDS.
Do not cover broiler insert with foil. To minimize chance of grease fires,
use a broiler pan that allows grease to drip belowthe insert, away from
the broilerflame.
GREASE
Use extreme caution when moving
the greasekettleor disposingof hot grease.
Hot grease is flammable. Avoid
letting greasedepositscollectaround
appliance,rangehood,orventfan. Do not leave containerof greasearound
a cooking appliance. Always let quantities of hot fat usedfor deepfat

VENTING
Never blockovenventor air intakes. Do not obstructthe flow of combus-
tion andventilationair. Restrictionof air flow to the burnerpreventsproper
performance.
Avoid touchingoven vent area while oven is on and for several minutes
after ovenisturnedoff.Somepartsof
the vent and surrounding area becomehot enoughto causeburns.
CLEANING
Turn off all controls and wait for rangepartsto coolbeforetouchingor
cleaning them. Do not touch the burner grates or surroundingareas
until they have hadsufficienttime to cool.
Touchinga hotovenlightbulbwith a damp cloth could causethe bulbto

COOKINGUTENSILS I
ALUMINUM- Conductsheat quicklyi
and evenly. The heavier the gauge.!
(thickness) the more durable. Aluminum may discolorfrom alkaline foods and pit from acid foods.
COPPE8- Very good heat conductor,
but discolors easily. Used primarily for bottom coatings and gourmet
cookware.
STAINLESSSTEEL.Alone it is a poor conductor,develops hot spots and produces uneven cooking results. However,it is durable,easyto clean,
and somewhat stain resistant.Coat-
ing stainless steel with a copperor aluminum bottomresultsin an easy-
to-clean,utensil,durable, even cooking CASTIRON- Slow to conductheat, but
retains the heatwell. Heavytohandle and mustbe kept well seasonedto preventstickingand rusting.
GLASS/GLASS.CERAMIC Transfers heat slowly and unevenly, but holds
heat well.
Only certain types of glass,_ glasslceramic, ceramic, earthen-
ware, or other glazed utensils are
suitable for rangetopservicewithout
breaking dueto thesuddenchangein
temperature. Check and follow
manufacturer'srecommendeduseor limitationsfor such utensils.

UTENSILSAFETY
Useonly pansthat haveflat bottoms
and handlesthat are easily grasped
and stay cool. Avoid usingunstable,
warped, easily tipped or loose
handledpans. Donot usepansif their handles twist and cannot be
tightened.Pans that are too heavy to movewhenfilled with food may also
be hazardous.
If suchstorageis provided,it should be limited to items which are used
infrequently and which are safely stored in an area subjectedto heat from an appliance.Temperaturesin storageareas abovethe unit may be
unsafe for some items, such as volatile liquids, cleaners or aerosol
sprays.
LEVELINGLEGS
Somefloors are not level. For proper baking, your range must be level. Leveling legs are located on each
cornerof the baseof the range.L_vel by turningthe legs.
Always place a pan of food on a surface burner before turning it on,
and turn it off before removing the pan. Be sure you know which knob
controlseach surface burner.
Always turn pan handlesto the side or back ofappliance,not outintothe
room where they are easily hit or reached by small children. To minimizeburns,ignitionofflammable materials and spillage due to unin-
tentionalcontactwith the utensil,do not extend handles over adjacent
surface burners.
Be sure utensil is large enoughto properly contain food and avoid boilovers. Pan size is particularly importantin deepfat frying. Besure
pan will accommodatethe volumeof
food that isto be addedaswell asthe
bubble action of fat. Never leave a deepfat frying operationunattended.
Use extreme caption when moving the greasekettle or disposingof hot
fat.
Always adjust surfaceburnersflame
so that it doesnot extendbeyondthe bottom of utensil.This instructionis
based on safety considerations.
STORAGEABOVERANGE
To eliminatethe hazard of reaching
over hot surface burners, cabinet
storage should not be provided directly above ,_unit.
VENTILATINGHOOD
To reduce the hazard of storage above a range, install a ventilating
hood that projectsat least 5 inches beyond the bottom edge of the
cabinets. Clean hood frequently to preventgrease from accumulating on
hood or itsfilter. Should a boiloveror spillover result in an open flame,
immediatelyturnoff thehood's fan to avoid spreading the flame. After
thoroughlyextinguishing flame, the fan may be turned on to remove unpleasantodor or smoke.
IMPORTANTSAFETYNOTICE
AND WARNING
The California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986
(Proposition 65) requires the
Governor of California to publish a list of substances known to the State
of California to cause cancer or re- productive harm, and requires
businesses to warn customers of potential exposures to such
substances.
Users of this appliance are hereby warned that the burning of gas can
result in low-level exposure to some of the listed substances, including benzene, formaldehyde and soot, due primarily to the incomplete combus-
tion of natural gas or liquid petroleum
(LP) fuels. Properly adjusted burners will minimize incomplete combustion.
Exposure to these substances can also be minimized by properly venting the burners to the outdoors.
STORAGEDRAWER
(if equipped) The storage drawer at the bottom of the range is safe and convenient for storing metal and glass cookware.
DO NOTstore plastic, paperware, or food in this drawer.

Most meats are roasted at 325°F except tenderloin at 425°F and
smaller poultry at 375°F to 400°F.
Cooking time is determinedby the- weight of the meat and the desired doneness.Usethe chartgivenbelow as a guide in determiningcooking
times. Forthe mostaccurateresults,
use a meat thermometer.Insert the
thermometersothe tipis inthe center
ofthethickestpart ofthe meatand is not touchingbone or fat.
After cooking,removemeat from the oven and let stand 15 to 20 minutes
for easier carving. Rare or medium rare meatsshouldbe removedfrom the oven whenthe internaltempera- ture is 5 to 10° less than the final desiredtemperaturesince meat will continue to cook slightly while standing.
ROASTINGCHAR1;
Frozen meat may be cookedin the
sameway as fresh meatif the meatis thawed first. It is also possible,
however, to cook meat fromthe frozen state. Follow the same
roasting instructions but increase cookingtime approximately10 to 25
minutes per pound. When using
frozen packaged meat, follow
package directions. Frozen poultry should always be thawed before
cooking except when package directionsrecommendcooking from the frozen state such as for frozen
turkey rolls. DO NOT REFREF.ZE MEATS THAT HAVE NOT BEEN
COOKEDFIRST.
PORK
Porkshouldalways becookedto an internal temperature of 170" (well
done) throughout.
