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: 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.

■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.

■This range is equipped with a three-prong grounding plug for your protection against shock hazard and should be plugged directly into a properly grounded receptacle. Do not cut or remove the grounding prong from this plug.

■Disconnect power before servicing.

■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.

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

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

For self-cleaning ranges –

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

Cooktop Controls

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.

IMPORTANT: Your range is factory-set for use with Natural gas. If you wish to use LP gas, an LP Gas Conversion Kit is included with your new range. See the “Gas Conversions” section of the Installation Instructions for details on making this conversion.

Electric igniters automatically light the surface burners when control knobs are turned to LIGHT.

The large burners (16,000, 15,000 and 12,500 Btu/h [British Thermal Units]) provide the highest heat setting, and are ideal for cooking large quantities of food or liquid, using large pots and pans. The small burners (9,200 and 5,000 Btu/h) allow more accurate simmer control at the lowest setting, and are ideal for cooking smaller quantities of food, using smaller pots and pans.

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

NOTE: Visually check that the burner has lit. If the burner does not ignite, listen for a clicking sound. If you do not hear the igniter click, turn the burner off. Check for a tripped circuit breaker or blown household fuse.

Check that the control knob is pressed completely down on the valve shaft. If the spark igniter still does not operate, call a trained repair specialist.

To Set:

1.Push in and turn knob counterclockwise to LIGHT.

All the surface burners will click. Only the burner with the control knob turned to LIGHT will produce a flame.

2.Turn knob anywhere between HI and LO. Use the following chart as a guide when setting heat levels.

SETTING	RECOMMENDED USE
LIGHT	■	Light the burner.
HI	■	Start food cooking.
	■ Bring liquid to a boil.
MED (Medium)	■ Hold a rapid boil.
	■ Quickly brown or sear food.
	■ Fry or sauté foods.
	■ Cook soups, sauces and gravies.
	■ Stew or steam foods.
LO	■	Keep food warm.
	■	Simmer.

REMEMBER: When range is in use or (on some models) during the Self-Cleaning cycle, the entire cooktop area may become hot.

B.Burner ports

Burner ports: Check burner flames occasionally for proper size and shape as shown in the previous illustration. A good flame is blue in color, not yellow. Keep this area free of soil and do not allow spills, food, cleaning agents or any other material to enter the burner ports.

To Clean:

IMPORTANT: Before cleaning, make sure all controls are off and the oven and cooktop are cool. Do not use oven cleaners, bleach or rust removers.

1.Remove the burner cap from the burner base and clean according to “General Cleaning” section.

2.Clean the gas tube opening with a damp cloth.

3.Clean clogged burner ports with a straight pin as shown. Do not enlarge or distort the port. Do not use a wooden toothpick. If the burner needs to be adjusted, contact a trained repair specialist.

4.Replace the burner cap, making sure the alignment pins are properly aligned with the burner cap.

NOTE: When properly installed, the bottom of the griddle will rest securely just above the top surface of the grate.

IMPORTANT: Do not allow griddle to overhang controls.

To Use:

IMPORTANT: To avoid damaging the griddle, the griddle is to be used on the center burner on Low to Medium heat only.

■The griddle is intended for direct food cooking. To avoid damaging the finish of the griddle, do not use pans or metal utensils on the griddle.

■To avoid damaging the nonstick finish, do not use nonstick cooking sprays.

6

Home Canning

When canning for long periods, alternate the use of surface burners between batches. This allows time for the most recently used areas to cool.

■Center the canner on the grate above the burner.

■Do not place canner on 2 surface burners at the same time.

■For more information, contact your local agricultural department. Companies that manufacture home canning products can also offer assistance.

Cookware

IMPORTANT: Do not leave empty cookware on a hot surface cooking area, element or surface burner.

Ideal cookware should have a flat bottom, straight sides and a well-fitting lid, and the material should be of medium-to-heavy thickness.

Rough finishes may scratch the cooktop or grates. Aluminum and copper may be used as a core or base in cookware. However, when used as a base they can leave permanent marks on the grates.

Cookware material is a factor in how quickly and evenly heat is transferred, which affects cooking results. A nonstick finish has the same characteristics as its base material. For example, aluminum cookware with a nonstick finish will take on the properties of aluminum.

Cookware with nonstick surfaces should not be used under the broiler.

Use the following chart as a guide for cookware material characteristics.

COOKWARE	CHARACTERISTICS
Aluminum	■ Heats quickly and evenly.
	■ Suitable for all types of cooking.
	■ Medium or heavy thickness is best for
		most cooking tasks.
Cast iron	■ Heats slowly and evenly.
	■ Good for browning and frying.
	■ Maintains heat for slow cooking.
Ceramic or	■	Follow manufacturer’s instructions.
Ceramic glass	■ Heats slowly, but unevenly.
	■ Ideal results on low to medium heat

OVEN USE

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

Preheat is recommended for cooking most foods. Food should be placed in the oven when the preheat beep occurs. Some modes use elaborate cycling to achieve best performance. If the oven temperature is increased after the oven is preheated, make sure the oven is preheated to the new temperature before food is put into the oven. If food is in the oven during preheat, it may become overcooked.

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, liner or cookware.

■For best cooking results, do not cover entire 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⁄ " (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.

■Do not position racks with bakeware on them.

■Make sure racks are level.

■The upper oven is equipped with 1 flat rack.

■The lower oven is equipped with 2 flat racks.

■Place food so it will not rise into the broil burner. Allow at least ¹⁄ " (1.3 cm) between pans and the broil burner.

To Remove Oven Racks:

Flat Racks: Pull rack out to the stop position, raise the front edge, and then lift out.

Meat Thermometer

A meat thermometer is not supplied with this appliance. Follow manufacturer's directions for using a meat thermometer. On models without a temperature probe, use a meat thermometer to determine whether meat, poultry and fish are cooked to the desired degree of doneness. The internal temperature, not appearance, should be used to determine doneness.

Oven Vents

A

B

A.Lower oven vent

B.Upper oven vent

The oven vents release hot air and moisture from the ovens, and should not be blocked or covered. Blocking or covering the vents 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 vents.

Baking

Before baking, position racks according to the “Positioning Racks and Bakeware” section.

■If only one oven is to be used, that oven will preheat more quickly.

■Allow at least ½" (1.3 cm) between the baking pan or casserole and the top burner in the upper oven. Loaf, angel food or bundt pans are not recommended in the upper oven.

■When preheating with a baking/pizza stone inside the upper oven, do not set oven above 400°F (205°C). To use baking/ pizza stones at temperatures above 400°F (205°C) in the upper oven, put stone in after the preheat beep.

■On some models the convection fan may operate during preheating or during the bake cycle.

To Bake:

1.Press the BAKE keypad for desired oven.

“BAKE” will scroll in the upper or lower text area (depending on oven selection), and 350°F (175°C) will be displayed.

6.Place food in the oven when the preheat tone is given.

7.Press UPPER or LOWER CANCEL when finished.

8.Remove food from the oven.

Broiling

Broiling uses direct radiant heat to cook food. The lower the temperature, the slower the cooking. Thicker cuts and unevenly shaped pieces of meat, fish and poultry may cook better at lower broiling temperatures.

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

If you would like to purchase a broiler pan, one may be ordered. See “Assistance or Service” section to order.

BROILING CHART

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

■Broil feature is only available in the upper oven.

■Select HI/550°F (288°C) broil for most broiling. Select LO/ 450°F (232°C) broil for low-temperature broiling of longer cooking foods such as poultry to avoid overbrowning.

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

Before broiling, position rack according to the Broiling Chart. Preheat oven for 5 minutes, position food on grid in the broiler pan, then place it in the center of the oven rack. Close the door.

To Broil Using Hi/Low Temperature Settings:

1.Press BROIL.

“BROIL” will appear in the upper text area, and HI will be displayed.

Then “BROIL” will scroll in the upper text area until UPPER CANCEL is pressed.

4.Preheat oven for 5 minutes, then place food in the oven.

5.Press UPPER CANCEL when finished.

6.Remove food from the oven.

Broil times are based on a 5-minute preheat. Times are guidelines only and may need to be adjusted for individual tastes. Turn meat halfway through cooking time. Recommended rack positions are numbered from the bottom (1) to the top (5). For diagram, see the “Positioning Racks and Bakeware” section.

Convection Cooking - Lower Oven Only

(on some models)

During convection cooking, the fan provides increased hot air circulation throughout the oven. The movement of heated air around the food helps to speed up cooking by penetrating the cooler outer surfaces.

■It is important not to cover foods so that surface areas remain exposed to the circulating air, allowing browning and crisping.

■Keep heat loss to a minimum by only opening the oven door when necessary.

■Choose cookie sheets without sides and roasting pans with lower sides to allow air to move freely around the food.

■Test baked goods for doneness a few minutes before the minimum cooking time with a method such as a toothpick.

■Use a meat thermometer to determine the doneness of meats and poultry. Check the temperature of pork and poultry in 2 or 3 different places, including the thickest part.

■Before convection cooking, position the rack(s) according to the “Positioning Racks and Bakeware” section.

■When using more than one rack, position bakeware/ cookware on the racks to allow movement of the fan circulated air around the food. See the “Positioning Racks and Bakeware” section.

■If the oven is full, extra cooking time may be needed.

■For optimal cooking results, do not cover food.

■When roasting poultry and meat, use a broiler pan and grid. It is not necessary to wait for the oven to preheat, unless recommended in the recipe.

To order a broiler pan, see the “Assistance or Service” section.
