Utensil Safety
• Use pans with flat bottoms and handles that are easily grasped and stay
cool. Avoid using unstable, warped, easily tipped or loose-handled pans.
Also avoid using pans, especially small pans, with heavy handles as they
could be unstable and easily tip. Pans that are heavy to move when filled
with food may also be hazardous.
• Be sure utensil is large enough to properly contain food and avoid boilovers.
Pan size is particularly important in deep fat frying. Be sure pan will
accommodate the volume of food that is to be added as well as the bubble
action of fat.
• To minimize burns, ignition of flammable materials and spillage due to
unintentional contact with the utensil, DO NOT extend handles over
adjacent surface burners. ALWAYS turn pan handles toward the side or back
of the appliance, not out into the room where they are easily hit or reached
by small children.
• NEVER let a pan boil dry as this could damage the utensil and the appliance.
• Follow the manufacturer's directions when using oven cooking bags.
Utensil Safety
• Only certain types of glass, glass/ceramic, ceramic or glazed utensils are
suitable for rangetop surface or oven usage without breaking due to the

About Your Appliance
Getting Started
NEVER use appliance as a space heater to heat or warm a room to prevent
potential hazard to the user and damage to the appliance. Also, DO NOT
use the rangetop or oven as a storage area for food or cooking utensils.
• For proper oven performance and operation, DO NOT block or obstruct the
oven vent duct located on the right side of the air grille.
• Avoid touching oven vent area while oven is on and for several minutes after
oven is turned off. When the oven is in use, the vent and surrounding area
become hot enough to cause burns. After oven is turned off, DO NOT touch
the oven vent or surrounding areas until they have had sufficient time to
cool.
• Other potentially hot surfaces include rangetop, areas facing the rangetop,
oven vent, surfaces near the vent opening, oven door, areas around the oven
door and oven window.
• The misuse of oven doors (e.g. stepping, sitting, or leaning on them) can
result in potential hazards and/or injuries.
Power Failure
If power failure occurs, the electric igniters will not work. No attempt should be
made to operate the appliance during a power failure. Make sure the oven
control is in the “OFF” position.
Warnings
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.
ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD
Disconnect the electric power at the main fuse or circuit
breaker before replacing bulb.

Lighting Burners
All burners are ignited by electric ignition. There
are no open-flame, “standing” pilots.
Surface Burners-Automatic Reignition
To light the surface burners, push and turn the
appropriate control knob counter clockwise to any
position. This control is both a gas valve and an electric switch. Burners
will ignite at any “ON” position with the automatic re-ignition system. If
the flame goes out for any reason, the burners will automatically reignite
if the gas is still flowing. When gas is permitted to flow to the burners,
the electric igniters start sparking. On all surface igniters you should hear
a “clicking” sound. If you do not, turn off the control and check that the
unit is plugged in and that the fuse or circuit breaker is not blown or
tripped.
Within a few moments, enough gas will have traveled to the burner to
light. When the burner lights, turn the burner control to any position to
adjust the flame size. Setting the proper flame height for the desired
cooking process and selecting the correct cooking vessel will result in
superior cooking performance, while also saving time and energy.
Surface Cooking Tips
• Use low or medium flame heights when cooking in vessels that are
poor conductors of heat, such as glass, ceramic, and cast-iron.
Reduce the flame height until it covers approximately 1/3 of the
cooking vessel diameter. This will ensure more even heating within
the cooking vessel and reduce the likelihood of burning or
scorching the food.
• Reduce the flame if it is extending beyond the bottom of the
cooking vessel. A flame that extends along the sides of the vessel is
potentially dangerous, heats the utensil handle and kitchen instead
of the food, and wastes energy.
• Reduce the flame height to the minimum level necessary to perform
the desired cooking process. Remember that food cooks just as
quickly at a gentle boil as it does at a rolling boil. Maintaining a
higher boil than is necessary wastes energy, cooks away moisture,
and causes a loss in food flavor and nutrient level.
• The minimum pot or pan (vessel) diameter recommended is 6”
(15 cm) on the larger burners. Pots or pans as small as 4” (10 cm)
should be used on the smaller burners.

Cooking Vessels
Each cook has his or her own preference for the particular cooking
vessels that are most appropriate for the type of cooking being done.
Any and all cooking vessels are suitable for use in the range and it is
not necessary to replace your present domestic vessels with commercial
cookware. This is a matter of personal choice. As with any cookware,
yours should be in good condition and free from excessive dents on
the bottom to provide maximum performance and convenience.
Note: When using big pots and/or high flames, it is recommended to
use the front burners. There is more room in the front and potential
cleanup at rear of appliance due to staining or discoloration will be
minimized.
Oven Features
Rack Positions
Each oven is equipped with three tilt-proof racks. All ovens have six
rack positions. Position 6 is the farthest from the oven bottom. Position
1 is the closest to the oven bottom. The racks can be easily removed
and arranged at various levels. For best results with conventional
baking, DO NOT use more than one rack at a time. It is also
recommended, when using two racks, to bake with the racks in
positions 2 and 4 or positions 3 and 5.

Baking
Conventional and Convection Cooking
Because of variations in food density, surface texture and consistency,
some foods may be prepared more successfully using the conventional
bake setting. For this reason, conventional baking is recommended
when preparing baked goods such as custard. The user may find other
foods that are also prepared more consistently in conventional bake. It
is recommended to use this function for single-rack baking.
Convection Cooking Tips
Convection cooking is a cooking technique which utilizes fan-forced
air to circulate throughout the entire oven cavity creating the optimum
cooking environment. Cooking with convection is intended when
performing multi-rack baking and for heavier foods. Below are some
tips which will allow you to get the best results out of your oven when
cooking with convection.
• As a general rule, to convert conventional recipes to convection
recipes, reduce the temperature by 25°F (10°C) when using a
convection cooking function.
• Cooking times for standard baking and convection baking will be the
same. However, if using convection to cook a single item or smaller
load, then it is possible to have 10-15% reduction in cooking time.
(Remember convection cooking is designed for multi-rack baking or
cooking large loads.)
• If cooking items which require longer than 45 minutes, then it is
possible to see a 10-15% reduction in cooking time.
• A major benefit of convection cooking is the ability to prepare foods
Operation
in quantity. The uniform air circulation makes this possible. Foods
that can be prepared on two of three racks at the same time
include: pizza, cakes, cookies, biscuits, muffins, rolls, and frozen
convenience foods.
• For three-rack baking, use any combination of rack positions 2, 3, 4,
and 5. For two-rack baking, use rack positions 2 and 4 or positions 3
and 5. Remember that the racks are numbered from bottom to top.
BAKE
(Natural Airflow Bake)
Full power heat is radiated from
the U-shaped bake burners in
the bottom of the oven cavity
and is circulated with natural
airflow. This function is
recommended for single rack
baking. Many cookbooks contain
recipes to be cooked in the
conventional manner.
Conventional baking is suitable for dishes that require a high
temperature. Use this setting for baking and casseroles.
To Use BAKE Function
1. Arrange the oven rack in the desired position before turning
oven on.
2. Set the oven temperature control knob to desired temperature.
3. Close the door.
CONVECTION BAKE
Heat is radiated from the Ushaped bake burners in the
bottom of the oven cavity. The
heated air is circulated by one
motorized fan in the rear of the
oven providing a more even
heat distribution. Multiple rack
use is possible for the largest
baking job. When roasting,
cool air is quickly replaced—
searing meats on the outside
and retaining more juices and
natural flavor on the inside with less shrinkage. This even circulation of
air equalizes the temperature throughout the oven cavity and
eliminates the hot and cold spots found in conventional ovens.

To Use CONVECTION BAKE Function
1. Arrange the oven rack in the desired position before turning oven on.
2. Set the oven temperature control knob to desired temperature and
turn on the convection fan.
3. Close the door.
Baking Tips
• Make sure the oven racks are in the desired position before you turn
on the oven.
• DO NOT open the door frequently during baking. Look through the
door window to check doneness whenever possible. If you must open
the door, the best time is during the last quarter of the baking time.
• Bake to the shortest time suggested and check for doneness before
adding more time. For baked goods, a stainless steel knife placed in
the center of the product should come out clean when done.
• Use the pan size and type recommended by the recipe to ensure
best results. Cakes, quick breads, muffins, and cookies should be
baked in shiny, reflective pans for light, golden crusts. Avoid the use
of old, darkened pans. Warped, dented, stainless steel and tin-coated
pans heat unevenly and will not give uniform baking results.
Pan Placement Tips
• When using large (15" x 13") flat pans or trays that cover most of the
rack, rack positions 2 or 3 produce the best results.
• When baking on more than one rack, it is recommended to use the 3rd
Operation
and 5th position for more consistent even baking.
• Stagger pans in opposite directions when two racks and several pans
are used in conventional bake. If possible, no pan should be directly
above another.
• Allow 1 to 2 inches of air space around all sides of each pan for
even air circulation.

Solving Baking Problems
Baking problems can occur for many reasons. Check the chart below
for the causes and remedies for the most common problems. It is
important to remember that the temperature setting and cooking
times you are accustomed to using with your previous oven may vary
slightly from those required with this oven. If you find this to be true,
it is necessary for you to adjust your recipes and cooking times
accordingly.

Broiling
infrared broil
infrared convection broil
Broiling
BROIL (Infrared Broil)
The broil burner at the top of
the oven heats the metal screen
until it glows. Heat radiates
from the GourmetGlo™ infrared
broiler located at the top of the
oven cavity. The distance
between the foods and the broil
elements determines broiling
speed. For “fast” broiling, food
may be as close as 2 inches (5 cm) to the broil element or on the top
rack. “Fast” broiling is best for meats where rare to medium doneness
is desired. Use this setting for broiling small and average cuts of meat.
Broiling Instructions
Broiling is a dry-heat cooking method using direct or radiant heat.
It is used for small, individualized cuts such as steaks, chops, and
patties. Broiling speed is determined by the distance between the
food and the broil element. Choose the rack position based on
desired results.
Conventional broiling is most successful for cuts of meat 1-2 inches
thick and is also more suitable for flat pieces of meat. Convection
broiling has the advantage of broiling food slightly quicker than
conventional. Convection broiling of meats produces better results,
especially for thick cuts. The meat sears on the outside and retains
more juices and natural flavor inside with less shrinkage.
To Use Broil or Convection Broil
CONVECTION BROIL
(Infrared Convection Broil)
The top burner operates at full
power. This function is exactly
the same as regular broiling
with the additional benefit of air
circulation by the motorized fan
in the rear of the oven. Smoke
is reduced since the airflow also
reduces peak temperatures on
the food. Use this setting for
broiling thick cuts of meats.
Operation
1. Arrange the oven rack in the desired position before turning
broiler on.
2. Center the food on cold broiler pan and grid supplied with your
oven. Place broiler pan in oven.
3. Set the oven temperature control knob to “Broil”. Turn on the
convection fan if you wish to convection broil.
4. Close the door. There is not a detent to hold the door in the open
broil stop position. With open door broiling the broil element does
not cycle on and off. With closed door broiling the broil element
might cycle on and off if an extended broiling time is required. A
built-in smoke "eliminator" in the top of the oven helps reduce
smoke and odors.

Broiling Tips
• ALWAYS use a broiler pan and grid for broiling. They are designed
to provide drainage of excess liquid and fat away from the cooking
surface to help prevent splatter, smoke, and fire.
• To keep meat from curling, slit fatty edge.
• Brush chicken and fish with butter several times as they broil to
prevent drying out. To prevent sticking, lightly grease broiler tray.
• Broil on first side for slightly more than half the recommended time,
season, and turn. Season second side just before removing.
• ALWAYS pull rack out to stop position before turning or removing
food.
• Use tongs or a spatula to turn meats. NEVER pierce meat with a
fork, as this allows the juices to escape.
• Remove the broiler pan from the oven when you remove the food.
Drippings will bake onto the pan if it is left in the heated oven after
broiling. While pan is hot, place damp paper towel over grid. Drizzle
with liquid dishwashing detergent and pour water over grid. This will
make cleaning of the pan easier, or the broiler pan can be lined with
aluminum foil to make cleaning easier. Be sure the foil extends up
the side of the pan. Although it is not recommended, the grid can
also be covered with foil. Be sure to slit openings to conform with
the openings in the grid so melted fat can drain through to prevent
spattering, smoking, or the possibility of grease fire.
Rack Positions for Broiling
Note: Position 6 is the closest to the broiler and position 1 is the
closest to the oven bottom.

Convection Dehydrate
CAUTION
WARNING
Convection Defrost
Convection Dehydrate
This oven is designed not only to cook, but also to dehydrate fruits
and vegetables. Warm air is circulated by a motorized fan in the rear
of the oven and over a period of time, the water is removed from
the food by evaporation. Removal of water inhibits growth of
microorganisms and retards the activity of enzymes. It is important to
remember that dehydration does not improve the quality, so only
fresh, top-quality foods should be used.
1. Prepare the food as recommended.
2. Arrange the food on drying racks (not included with the oven;
contact a local store handling speciality cooking utensils).
3. Set the temperature control to 200°F (93.3°C) and turn on the
convection fan.
You must carefully check the food during the dehydration process to
ensure that it does not catch fire.
Convection Defrost
Air is circulated by a motorized fan in the rear of the oven. The fan
accelerates natural defrosting of the food without heat. To avoid
sickness and food waste, DO NOT allow defrosted food to remain in
the oven for more than two hours.
1. Place the frozen food on a baking sheet.
2. Set the oven temperature control knob to “OFF” and turn on the
convection fan.
To avoid sickness and food waste, DO NOT allow defrosted food to
remain in the oven for more than two hours.

Any piece of equipment works better and lasts longer when
maintained properly and kept clean. Cooking equipment is no
exception. Your range must be kept clean and maintained properly.
Before cleaning, make sure all controls are in the “OFF” position.
Disconnect power if you are going to clean thoroughly with water.
Surface Burner
Wipe up spill-overs as soon as possible after they occur and before
they get a chance to burn in and cook solid. In the event of a
spill-over, follow these steps:
• Allow the burner and grate to cool to a safe temperature level.
• Lift off the burner grate. Wash in warm soapy water.
• Remove the burner cap and burner head and clean.
Burner Caps
The surface burner caps should be routinely removed and cleaned.
ALWAYS clean the burner caps after a spill-over. Keeping the burner
caps clean will prevent improper ignition and uneven flames. To clean,
pull burner cap straight up from the burner base. Wipe off surface
burner caps with warm, soapy water and a soft cloth after each use.
Use a non-abrasive cleanser such as Bon Ami™ and a soft brush or soft
Scotch Brite™ pad for cooked-on foods. Dry thoroughly after cleaning.
For best cleaning and to avoid possible rusting, DO NOT clean in
dishwasher or self-cleaning oven.

WARNING
Cleaning and Maintenance
Burner Head
If ports on burner head are clogged, clean with a straight pin. DO
NOT enlarge or distort the ports. DO NOT use a toothpick to clean
the ports. When replacing burner head, carefully align the 2 tabs
underneath the burner head with the outside edge of burner base.
Make sure the tabs are not aligned with the igniter and the burner cap
is level.
Note: For stubborn stains, use a non abrasive cleanser such as Bon
Ami™ and a soft brush or soft Scotch Brite™ pad.
Cleaning Tip: For difficult to clean burner caps and heads, place parts
in a zip seal bag with ammonia.
Burner Base
The base should be wiped regularly with hot soapy water at the end of
each cooling period. DO NOT use steel wool, abrasive cloths, cleanser,
or powders. To remove encrusted materials, soak the area with a hot
towel to loosen the material, then use a wooden nylon spatula.
DO NOT use a metal knife, spatula, or any other metal tool to scrape
the aluminum base.
• Wipe up any spills which remain on the sealed top surface.
• Replace burner cap, burner head, and grates after drying thoroughly.
Control Panel
DO NOT use any cleaners containing ammonia or abrasives. They
could remove the graphics from the control panel. Use hot, soapy
water and a soft clean cloth.
Oven Surfaces
Several different finishes have been used in your oven.
NEVER USE AMMONIA, STEEL WOOL PADS OR ABRASIVE CLOTHS,
CLEANSERS, OVEN CLEANERS, OR ABRASIVE POWDERS. THEY CAN
PERMANENTLY DAMAGE YOUR OVEN.
