and make sure the burners have ignited.

● Never leave the surface burners unattended at

highflame settings. Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers that may catch on fire.

. Adjust the top burner flame size so it does not

extend

Excessive flame is hazardous.

● Do not let potholders come near open flames

when lifting cookware.

Do not use a towel or other

● To

minimim the possibility of burns, ignition

of flammable materials and spillage, turn cookware handles toward the side or back of the range without extending over adjacent burners.

● Always turn the surface burnem to off before

removing cookware.

cCarefully watch foods being fried at a high

flame setting.

● Never block the vents (air openings) of the

range.They

provide the air inlet and outlet that

arenecessary 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 storage drawer.

● Donot usea wok if the wok has a roundmetal

ringthat isplaced over the burner grate to SUppOrtthe wok. Thisring acts as a heat trap,

which may damage the burner grate and burner head. Also, it may cause the burner to work improperly. T& may cause a carbon monoxide level above that allowed by current standards, resulting in a health hazard.

SURFACE COOKING

Surface Burner Controls

The knobs that turn the surface burners on and off are

locatedon the control panel in frontof the burners.

The two knobson the leftcontrol the left frontand left rear burners.The two knobs on the rightcontrol the right frontand right rear burners.

Before Lighting a Burner

● If drip pans are supplied with your range, they

should be Usedat all times.

● Makesure all grates on the range are in place

before using any burner.

cThe smaller burner (right rear position) will give

the best simmer results. It offers precise cooking performance for delicate foods, such as sauces or foods which need to cook over low heat for a long time. It can be turned down to a very low simmer setting.

● The right front burner is higher powered than the

others and will bring liquids to a boil quicker.

To Light a Surface Burner

Push the control knob in

and turn it to

LITE. You will hear a little “clicking” noise—the sound of the electric spark igniting the burner.

Turn the knob to adjust the

flame size. If the b-ob stays at LITE, it will continue to click.

When one burner is turned to LITE, all the burners

spark. Do not attempt to disassemble or clean around any burner while another burner is on.

An electric

sh&k may result, which could cause you to knock over hot cookware.

lP%----

In ease of power fdure, you can light the surface burners on your range with a match. Hold a lighted match to the burner, then turn the 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.

After Lighting a Burner

● Donot operate a burner for an extended period of

SURI?ACE COOKING

(continued)

Top-of-Range Cookware

Aluminum: Medium-weight cookware is recommended &c@useit heats quickly and evenly. Most foods brown evenly in an aluminum skillet. Use saucepans with tight-fitting lids when cooking

with

minimum amounts of water.

Cast-Iron: If heated slowly, most skillets will give

satisfactory results,

Enamelware: Undersomeconditions,theenamelof

somecookwaremaymelt.Followcookware

manufacturer’srecommendationsforcookingmethods.

Glass:

There are two types of glass cookware+ose for oven use only and those for top-of-range cooking (saucepans, coffee and teapots). Glass conducts heat very slowly.

Heatproof Glass Ceramic: Can be used for either

surfaceor 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.

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.

Stove TopGrills

Do not use stove top grills

on your sealed gas burners. If you use the stove top grill on the sealed gas burner it will cause

incomplete combustion and can result in exposure to carbon monoxide levels

above allowable current

standards.

T’hiSCan be

hazardous to yOUrhealth.

Wok Cooking

We recommend that you use only a flat-bottomed wok. They are available at your local retail store.

Do not use woks that have

support rings.

Use of these types of woks, with or without the ring in place, can be dangerous. Placing

the ring over the burner grate may cause the burner to work improperly resulting in carbon monoxide levels above allowable current standards. This could be dangerous to your health. Do not try to use such woks without the ring. You could be seriously burned if the wok tipped over.

USING YOUR OVEN

●:4 Before Using Your Oven

Be sure you understand how to set the controls properly. Practice removing and replacing the shelves while the oven is cool. Read the information and tips on the following pages. Keep this guide handy where you can refer to it, especially during the first weeks of using your new range.

Electric Ignition

Power Outage

CAUTION: Do not make any attempt to operate the electric ignition

oven during an electrical power failure. The oven or broiler cannot be lit during a power failure. Gas will not flow

unless the glow bar is hot. If the oven is in use when a power failure occurs, the oven burner shuts

off and cannot be re-lit until power is restored. This is because the flow of gas is automatically stopped and will not resume when power is restored until the glow bar has reached operating temperature.

Oven Moisture

Asyour oven heats up, the temperaturechange of the air inthe ovenmay

cause waterdropletsto form on the door glass.Thesedroplets are harmless

and will evaporate as the oven continuesto heatup.

Oven Vents

The oven is vented through duct openings at the rear of the cooktop. See the Features section. Do not block

these openings when cooking in the oven—it is

important that the flow of hot air from the oven and

fksh air to the oven burners be uninterrupted.

● The vent openings and

nearby surfaces may become ho~ Do not touch them.

● Metal items will beeome very hot if they are left
