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.

KEY USAGE TIPS
Surface Temperatures
When the range is in use, all range surfaces may become hot, such as the knobs and oven door.
Warming or Storage Drawer
When the oven is in use, the drawer may become hot. Do not store plastics, cloth, or other items that could melt or burn in the drawer.
Oven Vent
The oven vent releases hot air and moisture from the oven and should not be blocked or covered. Do not set plastics, paper, or other items that could melt or burn near the oven vent.
Preheating
When beginning a Bake, Convect Bake, or Convect Roast cycle, the oven will begin preheating after START is pressed. The oven will take approximately 12 to 15 minutes to reach 350°F (177°C) with all of the oven racks provided with your oven inside the oven cavity. Higher temperatures will take longer to preheat. The preheat cycle rapidly increases the oven temperature. The actual oven temperature will go above your set temperature to offset the heat lost when your oven door is opened to insert food. This ensures that when you place your food in the oven, the oven will begin at the proper temperature. Insert your food when the
preheat tone sounds. Do not open the door during preheat before the tone sounds.
Surface Burners
The burner bases and caps must be properly positioned before cooking. Your range comes with 3 sizes of burners and caps. Each round burner base is marked with letters indicating the burner size. Align the burner bases as shown in the following illustration:
A C
B |
D |
A. Small (AUX) |

OVEN USE
The normal operation of the range will include several noises that may be heard each time the bake or broil burners ignite during the cooking cycle:
■■ Gas valves may make a “popping” sound when opening or closing.
■■ Igniters will “click” several times until a flame is sensed.
■■ A “poof” sound is heard when a bake or broil burner ignites.
Odors and smoke are normal when the oven is used the first few times or when it is heavily soiled.
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.
Electronic Oven Controls
Control Display

Oven Temperature Control
IMPORTANT: Do not use a thermometer to measure oven temperature. Elements will cycle on and off as needed to provide consistent temperature but may run slightly hot or cool at any point in time due to this cycling. Most thermometers are slow
to react to temperature change and will not provide an accurate reading due to this cycling.
The oven provides accurate temperatures; however, it may cook faster or slower than your previous oven, so the temperature can be adjusted to personalize it for your cooking needs. It can be changed in Fahrenheit or Celsius.
To Adjust Oven Temperature:
1.Press and hold the “down” arrow keypad for 5 seconds until the oven display shows the current setting, for example “0°F CAL” or “00.”
2.Press the Temp/Time “up” or “down” arrow keypad to increase or to decrease the temperature in 5°F (3°C) amounts. The adjustment can be set between 30°F (18°C) and -30°F (-18°C).
3.Press START.
Sabbath Mode
(on some models)
The Sabbath mode sets the oven to remain ON in a bake setting until turned off. A Timed Bake can also be set to keep the oven ON for only part of the Sabbath. The Oven Control Lockout feature (if present) will be disabled during the Sabbath mode. After the Sabbath mode is set, no tones will sound, the display will not show the temperature, the Kitchen Timer mode will be canceled (if active), and only the following keypads will function:
■■ Temp/Time “up” and “down” arrow keypads
■■ Cancel

IMPORTANT: Food must be at serving temperature before placing it in the warmed oven. Food may be held up to 1 hour; however, breads and casseroles may become too dry if left in the oven during the Keep Warm function. For best results, cover food.
The Keep Warm feature allows hot cooked foods to stay at serving temperature.
To Use:
1.Press KEEP WARM.
2.Press Temp/Time “up” or “down” arrow keypad until desired temperature is reached. A tone will sound if the minimum
or maximum temperature is reached.
3.Press START.
4.Place food in the oven.
5.Press CANCEL when finished.
NOTE: The temperature may be changed at any time by pressing the Temp/Time “up” or “down” arrow keypad to the desired temperature and then START.
Aluminum Foil
IMPORTANT: To avoid permanent damage to the oven bottom finish, do not line the oven bottom with any type of foil or liner.
For best cooking results, do not cover entire oven rack with foil because air must be able to move freely.
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.
Bakeware
To cook food evenly, hot air must be able to circulate. Allow 2" (5 cm) of space around bakeware and oven walls. Make sure that no bakeware piece is directly over another.
Racks
■■ Position racks before turning on the oven. ■■ Do not move racks with bakeware on them. ■■ Make sure racks are level.

2-rack: Rack positions 2 and 4 or 2 and 5
Baking Layer Cakes on 2 Racks
For best results when baking cakes on 2 racks, use racks 2 and 4 for baking. Place the cakes on the racks, as shown.
Oven Vent
A
A. Oven vent
The oven vent releases hot air and moisture from the oven and should not be blocked or covered. Blocking or covering the oven vent 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 vent.
Baking and Roasting
The bake and broil burners cycle on and off in intervals. This feature is automatically activated when the oven is in use.
Before baking and roasting, position racks according to “Positioning Racks and Bakeware” section. When roasting, it is not necessary to wait for the oven preheat cycle to end before putting food in unless it is recommended in the recipe.
Preheating
When Start is pressed, the oven will begin preheating. Once 100ºF (38ºC) is reached, the display temperature will increase as the actual temperature of the oven increases. When the preheat temperature is reached, a tone will sound and the selected temperature will appear on the display.
Broiling
When broiling, preheat the oven for 5 minutes before putting food in unless recommended otherwise in the recipe. Position food on grid in a broiler pan, then place it in the center of the oven rack.
IMPORTANT: Close the door to ensure proper broiling temperature.
Changing the temperature when custom broiling allows more precise control when cooking. The lower the broil setting is, the slower the cooking. Thicker cuts and unevenly shaped pieces of meat, fish, and poultry may cook better at lower broil settings. Use rack 4 or 5 for broiling. Refer to the “Positioning Racks and Bakeware” section for more information.
■■ For best results, use a broiler pan and grid. It is designed to drain juices and help avoid spatter and smoke.
If you would like to purchase a broiler pan, one may be ordered. Please refer to the “Accessories” section for more information.
NOTE: Odors and smoke are normal the first few times the oven is used or if the oven is heavily soiled.

RANGE CARE
Self-Cleaning Cycle (on some models)
WARNING
Burn Hazard
Do not touch the oven during the Self-Cleaning cycle.
Keep children away from oven during Self-Cleaning cycle.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in burns.
IMPORTANT: The health of some birds is extremely sensitive to the fumes given off during the Self-Cleaning cycle. Exposure to the fumes may result in death to certain birds. Always move birds to another closed and well-ventilated room.
Do not block the oven vent during the Self-Cleaning cycle. Air must be able to move freely. Depending on your model, see the “Oven Vent” section.
Do not clean, rub, damage, or move the oven door gasket.
Prepare Range
■■ Remove the broiler pan, grid, cookware and bakeware, all cooking utensils, oven racks and aluminum foil and, on some models, the temperature probe from the oven.
■■ Use a damp cloth to clean inside door edge and the 1½" (3.8 cm) area around the inside oven cavity frame, being certain not to move or bend the gasket.
■■ Remove plastic items from the cooktop because they may melt.
■■ Remove all items from the storage drawer.
How the Cycle Works
IMPORTANT: The heating and cooling of porcelain on steel in the oven may result in discoloring, loss of gloss, hairline cracks, and popping sounds.
Before cleaning, make sure the door is completely closed or the door will not lock and the Self-Cleaning cycle will not begin.
Once the oven has completely cooled, remove ash with a damp cloth. To avoid breaking the glass, do not apply a cool damp cloth to the inner door glass before it has completely cooled.
To stop the Self-Cleaning cycle at any time, press the Cancel button on the keypad. If the temperature is too high, the oven door will remain locked and “cool” and “locked” will be displayed. The cooling fan may continue to run.
Once the self-cleaning temperature has been reached, the electronic control requires a 12-hour delay before another SelfCleaning cycle can be started.
The oven light will not function during the Self-Cleaning cycle.
Electronic Oven Control with Adjustable Clean Time (on some models)
The Self-Cleaning cycle is time adjustable between 2 hours 30 minutes and 4 hours 30 minutes in 30-minute increments. The suggested clean times are 2 hours 30 minutes for light soil and 4 hours 30 minutes for heavy soil.
IMPORTANT: When cooktop is in use, the Self-Cleaning cycle will be disabled. An error tone will sound and the Cooktop On indicator light will flash. If you turn on the cooktop when the SelfCleaning cycle is in use, it will disable the Self-Cleaning cycle and “END” will be displayed.
To Self-Clean:
1.Press CLEAN.
2.Press the Temp/Time “up” or “down” arrow keypad to enter the desired Self-Cleaning cycle time.
3.Press START.
The oven door will automatically lock. The Door Locked and Clean indicator lights will be displayed. The time remaining will also be displayed.
4.When the Self-Cleaning cycle is complete and the oven cools, the Door Locked and Clean indicator lights will turn off.
5.When the oven is completely cooled, remove ash with a damp cloth.
To exit the Self-Cleaning cycle before completed, press CANCEL. The door will unlock once the oven cools.
