12_ important safety instructions
Locate the range out of kitchen trac paths and drafty locations to prevent poor air circulation.
This appliance should be positioned so that the power plug is easily accessible. Do not install in an area exposed to dripping water or outside weather
conditions. Remove all packaging materials from the range before operating it. These
materials can ignite, causing smoke and/or fire damage. Install this appliance on a level and hard floor that can support its weight.
Synthetic flooring, like linoleum, must withstand 180 °F (82 °C) temperatures without shrinking, warping, or discoloring. Never install the range directly over interior kitchen carpeting unless a sheet of 0.25-inch plywood or a similar insulator is placed between the range and carpeting.
Never block the vents (air openings) of the range. They provide the air inlet and exhaust necessary for the range to operate properly with correct combustion. Air openings are located behind the range, under the oven control panel, at the top and bottom of the oven door, and under the lower warming or storage drawer.
Large scratches on or sharp blows to the door glass can cause the glass to break or shatter.
Make sure the wall coverings around the range can withstand heat, up to 200 °F (93 °C), generated by the range.
Avoid placing cabinets above the range. This reduces the hazard caused by reaching over the open flames of operating burners.
Do not put any combustible material or items around the range. If cabinets are placed above the range, allow a minimum clearance of 40
in (102 cm) between the cooking surface and the bottom of unprotected cabinets.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
important safety instructions _13
SURFACE BURNER WARNINGS
Follow basic precautions when installing and using this range to reduce the risk
WARNING
of fire, electrical shock, injury, or death to persons, including:
Use proper pan sizes. Avoid pans that are unstable or warped. Select cookware having flat bottoms large enough to cover the burner grates. To avoid spillovers, make sure cookware is large enough to contain your food. This will save cleaning time and prevent hazardous accumulations of food, since heavy spattering or spillovers left on the range can ignite. Use pans with handles that can be easily grasped and remain cool.
Do not use pots or pans larger than the grate on a grate. Using pots or pans larger than a grate may cause the pots or pans to discolor or deform. It can also cause units or the wall around the grate to ignite and may generate excess carbon monoxide.
Always use the LITE position when igniting the top burners. Make sure the burners have ignited.
If ignition fails, turn the knob to O and wait until the gas already emitted has dissipated. If you keep the knob in the LITE position without proper ignition, the emitted gas might cause an explosion.
Never leave the surface burners unattended at HIGH flame settings. Boilovers cause smoking, and greasy spillovers can ignite.
Stand away from the range when frying. Adjust the top burner flame size so it does not extend beyond the edge of the
cookware. Flames that extend past cookware edges can be hazardous. To decrease spattering when cooking foods with lots of liquid, such as meat
sauce or stew, adjust the the flame to low and stir frequently. Only use dry pot holders. Pot holders with moisture in them can release steam
and cause burns if they come in contact with hot surfaces. Keep pot holders away from open flames when lifting cookware. Never use a
towel or bulky cloth in place of a pot holder. Keep all plastic away from the surface burners or any open flame. When using glass cookware, make sure it is designed for top-of-range cooking. Always make sure cookware handles are turned to the side or rear of the
cooktop, but not over other surface burners. This will minimize the chance of burns, spillovers, and the ignition of flammable materials that can be caused if pots or pans are bumped accidently.
Do not wear loose or hanging garments when using the range. They could ignite and burn you if they touch a surface burner.
Take care that your hands do not touch the burners when they are on. Turn o the burners when you change a pan or pot.
14_ important safety instructions
Always heat frying oils slowly, and watch as they heat. If you are frying foods at high heat, carefully watch during the cooking process. If a combination of fats or oils are to be used during frying, they need to be stirred together before heating.
Use a deep fryer thermometer whenever possible. This prevents overheating the fryer beyond the smoking point.
Use as little oil as possible for shallow or deep-fat frying. Using too much oil can cause spillovers when food is added.
Items should always be removed from the cooktop when they are done cooking.
Never leave plastic items on the cooktop. Hot air from the vent can melt or ignite plastic items or cause a building up of dangerous pressure in closed plastic containers.
This cooktop is not designed to flame foods or cook with a wok or wok ring attachment. If foods are flamed, they should only be flamed under a ventilation hood that is on.
Always make sure foods being fried are thawed and dried. Moisture of any kind can cause hot fat to bubble up and over the sides of the pan.
Never move a pan or deep-fat fryer full of hot fat. Always let it cool before moving.
Always make sure the controls are OFF and the grates are cool before you remove them to prevent any possibility of burning.
If the range is located near a window, NEVER hang long curtains or paper blinds on that window. They could blow over the surface burners and ignite, causing a fire hazard.
Grease is flammable and should be handled very carefully. Never try to extinguish a grease fire with water.
If you smell gas, turn o the gas to the range and call a qualified service technician. NEVER use an open flame to locate a leak.
Always turn o the surface burner controls before removing cookware. All surface burner controls should be turned OFF when you are not cooking.
Always turn the burners o before you go to sleep or go out.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
important safety instructions _15
OVEN WARNINGS
NEVER cover any holes or passages in the bottom oven cover. NEVER cover
WARNING
an entire oven rack with aluminum foil or like material. Covering the bottom cover and/or racks blocks airflow through the oven and could cause carbon monoxide poisoning.
Do not use aluminum foil or foil liners anywhere in the oven, except as described in this manual. Misuse traps heat and could cause a fire hazard or damage the range.
Always follow the manufacturer’s directions when using cooking or roasting bags in the oven.
DO NOT clean the door gasket. The door gasket is essential for a good seal. Care should be taken not to damage or move the gasket.
Do not strike the oven glass. Do not spray water onto the oven glass when the oven is on or just after you have turned the oven o.
Stand away from the range when opening the door of a hot oven. The escaping hot air and steam can cause burns.
Do not use the oven for storage. Stored items can be damaged or ignite.
Keep the oven free from grease buildup. Reposition oven racks only when the oven is cool to prevent burning or
personal injury. Do not heat unopened containers. Pressure in the container could build up,
resulting in an explosion and/or personal injury. Only use glass cookware that is recommended for use in gas ovens.
This prevents fire flare-ups from stored grease buildup. Do not broil meat too close to the burner flame. Trim excess fat from meat
before cooking. Meat fat can ignite, causing a fire hazard. If a grease fire should occur in the oven, turn o the oven by pressing the
Clear/O pad. Keep the oven door closed to put out the fire. Always bake and/or broil with the oven door closed. Broiling with the door
partially or fully open can damage the surface burner control knobs and even the kitchen counter.

The right rear side burner provides precise cooking performance for delicate foods and foods that require low heat for long cooking times. The right rear side burner lets you use the LO setting for a very low simmer setting.
The left rear side and center round burners are general-purpose burners that can be used for most cooking. The HI to LO settings provide a wide range of cooking temperatures to meet your cooking needs.
The right and left front side burners provide maximium output. These burners can also be used as general-purpose burners, but they are designed to provide quick heat to large cookware. (The dual burner on the right front is designed to control inner flame and outer flame separately.). The right and left front side burner spreads out the heat with a larger circle of flames.

This provides better heat distribution for larger cookware (12 in [30.5 cm]) or larger pots and pans.
The center oval burner can also be used for large pots and pans, but is designed to be used with the center burner grate and/or the center griddle accessory (if equipped). The oval burner also spreads out the heat more evenly over the large center cooking area.
Each surface burner has a control knob with settings from HI to LO. They also have a LITE setting that is only used to light the flame. The electronic ignition system sparks when the control knob is in the LITE position. The surface burner indicator next to the control knob shows which burner the knob controls.

COOKWARE USAGE
Using the correct cookware can prevent many problems, such as uneven cooking or extended cooking times. Using the proper pans will reduce cooking times and cook food more evenly. Look for the following pan characteristics:
Flat bottom and straight sides.
Tight-fitting lid.
Weight of handle does not tilt pan.
Pan is well-balanced.
Pan size matches the amount of food being prepared and the size of the surface
burner.
Made of material that conducts heat well.
The pot/pan diameter matches the surface burner flame diameter.
What your cookware is made of determines how evenly and quickly heat is transferred from the surface burner to the pan bottom.
ALUMINUM: Excellent heat conductor. Some types of food will cause the aluminum to darken. (Anodized aluminum cookware resists staining and pitting.)
COPPER: Excellent heat conductor, but discolors easily.
STAINLESS STEEL: Slow heat conductor with uneven cooking results. Is durable, easy
to clean, and resists staining.
CAST-IRON: A poor conductor, but retains heat very well. Cooks evenly once cooking temperature is reached.
SURFACE COOKING
ENAMELWARE: Heating characteristics will vary depending on base material.
GLASS: Slow heat conductor. Glass cookware is designed for two usages—top-of-
range cooking or oven use. Only use cookware where it is designated to be used.
Do not place a small pan or pot with a bottom diameter of about 6 inches or less on the center grate. Otherwise, it is likely that the pan or pot tips over. We highly recommend you to place such a small-sized pan or pot on the rear of both side grates.
CENTER BURNER GRATE
Samsung gas ranges come with a center burner grate. This grate fits over the center oval burner. The center burner grate should not be used over any other burners and no other center stovetop grates should be used with this range.

2. Place the wok grate on either side grates.
3. Place the pan or pot on the wok grate.
(Make sure that the pan or pot securely sits on the work grate.)
4. Turn on the burner and adjust the flame size.
Do not remove the wok grate until the cooktop grates, surfaces, and wok grate are completely cooled.
CAUTION
When using the cooktop, oven, or broil systems, the wok grate on the cooktop may become very hot. Always use oven gloves when placing or removing the wok grate.
CAUTION
Do not use a pan or pot with a flat bottom or a pan or pot with a diameter that is smaller the wok ring diameter. Otherwise, it is likely that the pan or pot tips over.
CAUTION
Using an oversized pan or pot may cause the flames to spread out and damage the surrounding cooktop.
CAUTION
Make sure the pan or pot sits securely on the wok grate.
CAUTION
Do not use the wok grate with a griddle at the same time.
