from the start.
Follow these steps to condition your new stove’s oven:
1. Insert all the shelves. See ‘Positioning the shelves’ for instructions.
2. Turn on the ventilation hood above your range on high.
3. Heat the empty oven at the highest temperature for:
a. 30 minutes using BAKE
b. 30 minutes using BROIL (some ovens only).
4. There will be a distinctive smell while you are conditioning the oven. This is normal, but make sure the
kitchen is well ventilated during the conditioning.
5. Once cooled, wipe out the oven with a damp cloth and mild detergent, and dry thoroughly.
6. Positioning the shelves
7. Both the sides panel and shelves with safety stop to keep them sliding out of the oven when pulled
forward;
8. And the front stop prevents the shelves from against hitting the back of the oven
11. COOKTOP SAFETY GUIDELINES
There are dual burners have the same low turn-down setting (SIM) for gentle simmering (620 BTU/hr.).
Use the SIM setting for melting chocolate and butter, cooking rice and delicate sauces, simmering soups
and stews, and keeping cooked food hot.
Never leave the cook top unattended when in use. Boil over causes smoking and greasy spills
that may ignite.
Never allow flames to extend beyond cookware or curl up on sides. This could
discolor and damage the utensil and you may get burned touching the
hothandle.
19
Page 22
COOKTOP SAFETY GUIDELINES
Keep handles out of the way. Turn handles so that they don’t extend over the edge of therange or on a
burner that is on.
Take care when deep-frying. Oil or fat can overheat very quickly, particularly on a high setting.
Make sure that all burner parts are properly in place. Incorrectly or incompletely assembled burners
may produce dangerous flames. See ‘Replacing the burner parts’ in ‘Care and cleaning’.
Keep the burners clean, especially after a spill or boil over, make sure you clean the affected burners
before using them again. Food residue may clog the ignite and the notches of the flame spreader,
stopping the burner from functioning correctly. See “Care and cleaning” for instructions.
Check that the burner flames. They should be blue with no yellow tipping, and burn without fluttering all
around the burner cap. If not, see ‘Troubleshooting’ for advice.
Surface Burner Ignition
To light the top burners, push and turn the
appropriate control knob counter clockwise to
the “Hi”or “Med” or “Lo” position. You will hear
a clicking noise – the sound of the electric spark
igniting the burner. Once burner ignition has been
achieved, then turn the burner control knob to
adjust the desired heat setting.
20
Page 23
COOKTOP SAFETY GUIDELINES
NOTE: When one burner is turned to the “Hi” position, the burner igniters will park. Do not attempt
to disassemble or clean around any burner while another burner is on. Do not touch any
burner cap, burner base, or ignite while the igniters are sparking.
SIMMER AND BOIL
A smaller flame will give the best simmer results. Small flames offer precise cooking performance for
delicate foods, keeping food warm, melting chocolate or butter, and for cooking that need to cook over
low heat for a long time.
2The highest flame settings provides the maximum heat that is available on your range. This setting
should be used for heavy cooking loads such as water boiling or pastacooking.
FLAME SIZE
When you select the flame size, watch the flame when you turn the knob.
Any flame larger than the bottom of the cookware is wasted.The flame should be steady and blue in color. Foreign material in the gas line may cause an orange flame during initial operation.
POWER FAILURE
If the gas does not ignite within four seconds, turn off the valve and allow at least five minutes for any
gas to dissipate. Repeat the lighting procedure.
If the power fails, it is not capable of being safely placed in operation and user that no attempt should be
made to operate during power failure.
COOKTOP
To prevent the cooktop from discoloring or staining, clean cooktop after each use, and wipe up acidic or
sugary spills as soon as the cooktop has cooled.
The sealed burners of your range are not sealed to your cooktop and are designed to be removed. Boil
overs or spills will not seep underneath the cooktop. The burners should be cleaned after each use.

2.Remove any unused shelves and baking utensils from the oven.
3. Preheat the oven to the temperature stated in the recipe. Depending on the temperature and
the size o
4. Arrange pans and food items evenly on the shelves. Make sure pans do not touch each other
or the sides of the oven. When baking a single item, always center the item on the oven shelf.
If baking on multiple shelves, make sure you stagger items on the shelves so that one is never
directly above another.
5. When baking using convection, either reduce the temperature stated in the recipe and
leave the baking time unchanged, or reduce the baking time by several minutes and leave
the temperature unchanged. For foods with a baking time of over an hour, reducing both the
