heater to heat or warm the room. Doing so may result in

CARBON MONOXIDE poisoning.

IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING YOUR

OVEN

NEVER cover any slots, holes or passages in

the oven bottom or cover an entire oven 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 trap heat, causing a fire hazard.

Protective Liners — DO NOT use

aluminum foil to line the oven bottom. Only use aluminum

foil as recommended in this manual. Improper installation

of these liners may result in risk of electric shock, or fire.

Stepping, leaning or sitting on the door or

drawers of a range can result in serious injuries and also

cause damage to the appliance. DO NOT allow children

to climb or play around the range. The weight of a child on

an open oven door may cause the range to tip, resulting in

serious burns or other injury.

• Use care when opening oven door , warmer drawer or

lower oven door — Stand to the side of the range when

opening the door of a hot oven. Let hot air or steam

escape before you remove or replace food in the oven.

• Keep oven vent ducts unobstructed. The oven vent is

located below the backguard. Touching the surfaces in

this area when the oven is operating may cause severe

burns. Also, do not place plastic or heat-sensitive items on

or near the oven vent. These items could melt or ignite.

Storage in or on appliance — flammable

materials should not be stored in an oven, near surface

units or in the storage drawer, warmer drawer or lower

Important Safety Instructions

Important safety notice

IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR SELF-

CLEANING OVENS

The California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement

Act requires the Governor of California to publish a list of

substances known to the state to cause cancer, birth defects

or other reproductive harm, and requires businesses to warn

customers of potential exposure to such substances.

• Clean in the self-cleaning cycle only the parts listed in

this Use & Care Manual. Before self-cleaning the oven,

remove the oven racks, broil pan, broil pan insert and any

cookware, cooking utensils or foods from the oven.

IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING YOUR

COOKTOP

• Do Not Use Oven Cleaners — No commercial oven

cleaner or oven liner protective coating of any kind

should be used in or around any part of the oven.

Use Proper Flame Size — Adjust flame size

so it does not extend beyond the edge of the utensil. The

use of undersized utensils will expose a portion of the

burner flame to direct contact and may result in ignition of

clothing. Proper relationship of utensil to flame will also

improve efficiency.

• Do Not Clean Door Gasket — The door gasket is

essential for a good seal. Care should be taken not to

rub, damage or move the gasket.

• The health of some birds is extremely sensitive to the

fumes given off during the self-cleaning cycle of any

range. Move birds to another well-ventilated room.

• Know which knob controls each surface burner. Place a

pan of food on the burner before turning it on, and turn

the burner off before removing the pan.

• Always turn knob to the full LITE position when igniting

top burners. Visually check that burner has lit. Then

adjust the flame so it does not extend beyond the edge

of the utensil.

IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR CLEANING

YOUR RANGE

Before manually cleaning any part of the

range, be sure all controls are turned OFF and the range is

COOL. The range may be hot and can cause burns.

• Utensil handles should be turned inward and not extend

over adjacent surface burners — To reduce the risk of

burns, ignition of flammable materials, and spillage due

to unintentional contact with the utensil, the handle of the

utensil should be positioned so that it is turned inward,

and does not extend over adjacent surface burners.

• Clean the range regularly to keep all parts free of

grease that could catch fire. Pay particular attention to

the area around each surface burner. Do not allow

grease to accumulate.

• Never leave surface burners unattended at high heat

settings — Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers

that may ignite, or a pan that has boiled dry may melt.

• Kitchen cleaners and aerosols — Always follow the

manufacturer’s recommended directions for use. Be

aware that excess residue from cleaners and aerosols

may ignite causing damage and injury.

• Glazed cooking utensils — Only certain types of glass,

glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed

utensils are suitable for cook top service without breaking

due to the sudden change in temperature. Check the

manufacturer’s recommendations for cook top use.

• Clean ventilating hoods frequently — Grease should not

be allowed to accumulate on the hood or filter. Follow

the manufacturer’s instructions for cleaning hoods.

• When you are flaming foods under a ventilating hood,

turn the fan on.

Fig. 1

The flat oven rack (some models) or flat handle oven rack

(some models) may be used for most cooking needs.

Removing, replacing and arranging racks

Always use pot holders or oven mitts when

using the oven. When cooking, the oven interior and

exterior, oven racks and cooktop will become very hot

which can cause burns.

The offset oven rack (some models) is designed to place

the base of the rack about 1/2 of a rack position lower

than flat oven racks. This design provides several additional

possible positions between the flat rack positions.

DO NOT line the oven walls, racks, bottom

or any other part of the range with aluminum foil. Doing

so will destroy heat distribution, produce poor baking

results and cause permanent damage to the oven interior.

Aluminum foil will melt to the interior of the oven.

Air circulation in the oven

For best baking results allow 2-4" (5-10 cm) around the

cookware for proper air circulation and be sure pans and

cookware do not touch each other, the oven door, sides or

back of the oven cavity. Hot air must be able to circulate

around the cookware in the oven for even heat to reach

around the food (See Fig. 3 ).

Arranging - always arrange

the oven racks when the oven is

cool (prior to operating the

oven).

To remove - pull the rack

forward until it stops. Lift up

front of rack and slide out.

To replace - fit oven rack onto

the rack guides on both sides

of oven walls. Tilt the front of

oven rack upward and slide the

rack back into place. Be sure

oven racks are level before

using.

• For proper flow of gas and ignition of burners DO NOT

allow spills, food, cleaning agents or any other material

to enter the gas orifice port opening.

Fig. 3

On round style burners, the burner cap lip (See Fig. 1)

should fit snug into the center of burner head and rest level.

Refer to Figs. 2 & 3 for correct and incorrect burner cap

placement. Once in place, you may check the fit by gently

sliding the burner cap from side to side (Fig. 4) to be sure it

is centered and firmly seated. When the burner cap lip

makes contact inside the center of the burner head you will

be able to hear the burner cap click. Please note that the

burner cap should NOT move off the center of the burner

head when sliding from side to side.

Fig. 4

Check and be sure that all oval style (some models) burner

caps are correctly in place on oval burner heads.

Installing burner grates

Do not use the surface burners without the

burner caps and burner grates properly installed. Missing

pieces or improper installation may lead to spills, burns, or

damage to your range and cookware.

Make sure the burner grates are properly placed on the

cooktop before using the surface burners. The grates are

designed to rest inside the recess on the cooktop.

To install burner grates, place grates flat-side down and

align into the cooktop recess. Grates should rest flush

against each other and against the sides of the recess (See

Fig. 5).

Before Setting Surface Controls

Setting proper burner flame size

Using proper cookware

DO NOT place flammable items such as

Never extend the flame beyond the outer

plastic salt and pepper shakers, spoon holders or plastic

wrappings on the cooktop when it is in use. These items

could melt or ignite. Potholders, towels or wooden spoons

could catch fire if placed too close to the range cooktop.

edge of the cooking utensil. A higher flame wastes energy,

and increases your risk of being burned by the flame.

The color of the flame is the key to proper burner adjustment.

A good flame is clear, blue and hardly visible in a well-lighted

room. Each cone of flame should be steady and sharp. Adjust

or clean burner if flame is yellow-orange.

Important: DO NOT place aluminum foil, or ANY material

that can melt on the range cooktop. If these items melt they

may damage the cooktop.

For best cooking results,

cookware should have

Incorrect

flame setting

Fig. 1

For most cooking: start on the highest setting and then turn

to a lower setting to complete the process. Use the

recommendations below as a guide for determining proper

flame size for various types of cooking (Fig. 2)

Please note: The size and type of utensil used, and the

amount and type of food being cooked will influence the

burner flame setting needed for best cooking results.

For deep fat frying: use a thermometer and adjust the

surface knob accordingly. If the fat is too cool, the food

will absorb the fat and be greasy. If the fat is too hot, the

food will brown so quickly that the center will be under

cooked. Do not attempt to deep fat fry too much food at

once as the food will neither brown or cook properly.

Cookware material types

The most popular materials available are:

Aluminum - Excellent heat conductor. Some types of food

will cause it to darken (Anodized aluminum cookware

resists staining & pitting).

Flame size*

Type of cooking

Copper - Excellent heat conductor but discolors easily.

High flame

Stainless - Slow heat conductor with uneven cooking results.

Is durable, easy to clean and resists staining.

Medium flame

Low flame

Maintain a slow boil; thicken sauces,

gravies; steaming.

Cast Iron - A slow heat conductor however will retain heat

very well. Cooks evenly once cooking temperature is

reached.

Keep foods cooking; poach; stewing.

Setting Surface Controls

Setting surface burners

Your gas appliance may be equipped with different sized

surface burners. The ability to heat food quicker and in

larger volumes increases as the burner size increases. It is

important to select cookware that is suitable for the amount

and type of food being prepared.

The smaller SIMMER burner (on some models) is best suited

for simmering delicate sauces, etc.

The standard size burners may be used for most surface

cooking needs. Some models are equipped with a center

burner.

The larger POWER burners (on some models) or TURBO

BOIL burner (on some models) are recommended for

bringing large quantities of liquid to temperature and when

preparing larger quantities of food.

Fig. 1

Do not place flammable items such as

plastic salt and pepper shakers, spoon holders or plastic

wrappings on the cooktop when it is in use. These items

could melt or ignite. Potholders, towels or wooden spoons

could catch fire if placed too close to the range cooktop.

To set surface burners:

1. Place cooking utensil on center of surface burner grate.

Be sure the cooking utensil sets stable on the burner

grate.

Do not place aluminum foil, or ANY

material that can melt on the range cooktop. If these items

melt they may permanently damage the cooktop surface.

2. Push the desired surface control knob in and turn

counterclockwise out of the OFF position (Fig. 1).

3. Release the surface control knob and rotate to the LITE

position. Visually check that the burner has lit.

4. Once the burner has a flame, push the control knob in

and turn counterclockwise to the desired flame size.

Use the control knob markings and adjust the flame as

needed.

When operating the oven, it is possible for

residual heat from the oven to build-up and over time to

eventually transfer to the surface control knobs located

directly above the oven door.

Home canning

Important notes:

Be sure to read and observe all the following points when

home canning with your appliance. Check with the USDA

(United States Department of Agriculture) website and be

sure to read all the information they have available as well

as follow their recommendations for home canning

procedures.

• DO NOT cook with the surface control knob left in the

LITE position. The electronic ignitor will continue to spark

if the control knob setting remains in the LITE position .

• When setting any surface control knob to the LITE

position, all electronic surface ignitors will spark at the

same time. However, only the surface burner you are

setting will ignite.

• Use only a completely flat bottom canner.

• Use only quality flat bottom canners when home canning.

Use a straight-edge to check canner bottom.

• NEVER place or straddle a cooking utensil over two

different surface cooking areas at the same time. This

can cause uneven heating results.

• Make sure the diameter of the canner does not exceed

1 inch beyond the burner grate.

• Start with hot tap water to bring water to boil more

quickly.

• In the event of an electrical power outage, the surface

burners can be lit manually. Use caution when lighting

surface burners manually. To light a surface burner, hold

a lit match to the burner head, then slowly turn the

surface control knob to LITE. After burner lights push in

and turn knob to desired setting.

• Use the highest heat setting when first bringing the water

to a boil. Once boiling is achieved, reduce heat to lowest

possible setting to maintain that boil.

Convection (on some models)

Benefits of convection cooking:

• Cooks more evenly.

• Multiple rack baking.

• No special pans or bakeware needed.

• Recommended method for cakes, cookies, biscuits and

breads.

How convection works

Convection uses a fan to circulate the oven's heat uniformly

and continuously around the oven (See Fig. 1). This

improved heat distribution allows for fast, even cooking and

browning results. It also gives better baking results when

using two racks at the same time. Heated air flows around

the food from all sides, sealing in juices and flavors. Meats

cooked with Convection are juicer. Poultry is crisp on the

outside while staying tender and moist on the inside. Breads

and pastry brown more evenly. Most foods baked in a

standard oven will bake faster and more evenly with the

Convection feature.

Fig. 1

Roasting:

• Preheating is not necessary when roasting foods with the

Convection feature.

• Since Convection cooks food faster, reduce the cook time

by 25% from the recommended cook time of your recipe.

Then if necessary, increase the time until the desired

doneness is obtained.

To set Convection (on some models):

1. Arrange oven racks and close oven door.

2. Press Bake key pad. — — —° appears in display.

set the oven temperature between 300°F (149°C) to

550°F (288°C).

• If the oven door is opened when Convection is active, the

fan will stop rotating until the oven door is closed.

• Convection will not operate when Select Clean is active.

4. As soon as the

oven will begin heating to the selected temperature.

5. Once the Bake function is active, press and release the

Convection switch located on the backguard to start

Convection. The Convection indicator light will glow

when Convection is active.

• Dark or dull pans absorb more heat than shiny bakeware

resulting in dark or overbrowning of foods. It may be

necessary to reduce the oven temperature or cook time to

prevent overbrowning of some foods. Dark pans are

recommended for pies. Shiny pans are recommended for

cakes, cookies and muffins.

To cancel Convection at any time, press

Baking:

• For optimum cooking results it is recommended to

preheat the oven when baking foods such as cookies,

biscuits and breads.

• Reduce oven temperature 25°F from your recipe’s

recommended oven temperature. Follow the remainder of

the recipe’s instructions using the minimum recommended

cook time.

• For Convection be sure to set the oven temperature

between 300°F (149°C) to 550°F (288°C). If Convection

is active and the oven temperature is lowered below

300°F (149°C), the convection fan and indicator light will

turn off but the oven will continue to bake at the lower

oven temperature.

• When using 2 oven racks at the same time, place in oven

rack positions 2 & 4 for best results (See Fig. 1). Please

note that layer cakes will have better results using the

Bake function.

Broil

Important notes:

• Always arrange the oven racks

when the oven racks are cool.

Use the broil function to cook meats that require direct

exposure to flame heat for optimum browning results. The

Broil function is factory preset to broil at 550°F.

• For best results when broiling,

use a quality broil pan along

with a broil pan insert. A broil

pan is designed to drain the

fat from the food, help avoid

spatter and reduce smoking.

The suggested broil settings table (See Fig. 2) is provided

for recommendations only. Increase or decrease broiling

times, or move to a different rack position to suit for

doneness. If the food you are broiling is not listed in the

table, follow the instructions provided in your cookbook and

watch the item closely.

• When broiling, always pull the

oven rack out to the stop

position before turning or

removing food.

To set Broil:

1. Arrange the oven racks when cool. For optimum

browning results, preheat oven for 5 minutes before

adding food.

Warmer Drawer (on some models)

The purpose of the warmer drawer is to keep hot cooked

foods at serving temperatures. Examples are vegetables,

gravies, meats, casseroles, biscuits, rolls and pastries. It is

not recommended to heat cold food in the warmer drawer;

always start with hot food.

Storage in or on appliance—flammable

materials should not be stored in an oven, warmer

drawer, near surface units. This includes paper, plastic and

cloth items, such as cookbooks, plasticware and towels, as

well as flammable liquids. Do not store explosives, such as

aerosol cans, on or near the range.

The warmer drawer may also be used to warm dinner

plates. All food placed in the warmer drawer should be

covered with a lid or aluminum foil to maintain quality.

DO NOT LEAVE CHILDREN ALONE —

children should not be left alone or unattended in the area

where appliance is in use. They should never be allowed to

sit or stand on any part of the appliance, including the

warmer drawer.

Important note:

Do not use plastic wrap to cover food. Plastic may melt

onto the drawer and be very difficult to clean up. Use only

utensils and cookware recommended by the manufacturer

for use in the keep warm drawer.

Always use potholders or oven mitts when

removing food from the warmer drawer as cookware and

plates will be hot and you can be burned.

Arranging warmer drawer rack positions

Warmer drawer recommended settings

The recommended warmer drawer food settings is provided

in Fig. 3. Remember the settings provided are meant to be

used as recommendations only. If a particular food is not

listed, start with the MED (medium) setting. If more

crispness is desired, remove the lid or aluminum foil from

the food.

• In the upright position (See Fig. 1) to allow low profile

food items to be placed both under and on top of the

rack (for example, rolls or biscuits on top of the rack and

a casserole dish underneath).

• In the downward position (See Fig. 2) to allow for light

weight food items and empty cookware (for example,

rolls or pastries and dinner plates) on the rack.

Most foods can be maintained at serving temperatures on

the MED setting. When a combination of foods are to be

kept warm (for example, a meat with 2 vegetables and

rolls) use the HI (high) setting. To minimize heat loss, avoid

opening the warmer drawer frequently while in use.

Select Clean

A self-cleaning oven cleans itself with high temperatures

(well above normal cooking temperatures) which eliminate

soils completely or reduces them to a fine powdered ash

you can wipe away aftwerwards with a damp cloth.

• Remove any excessive spillovers. Any spills on the oven

bottom should be wiped-up and removed before starting

a self-clean cycle. To clean, use hot, soapy water and a

cloth. Large spillovers can cause heavy smoke or fire

when subjected to high temperatures. DO NOT allow

food spills with a high sugar or acid content (such as

milk, tomatoes, sauerkraut, fruit juices or pie filling) to

remain on the surface as they may leave a dull spot even

after cleaning.

The Select Clean function allows you to select 3 different

cleaning times from 2, 3 or 4 hours. A 3-hour cleaning time

is best used for normal cleaning; 2-hour time for light soils

and a 4-hour clean time for heavier stubborn soils.

• DO NOT clean the oven door gasket (See Fig. 1). The

woven material of the oven door gasket is essential for a

good seal. Care should be taken not to rub, damage or

remove the gasket. DO NOT use any cleaning materials

on the oven door gasket. Doing so could cause damage

to the door gasket.

Read before starting Select Clean

Be sure to read all the following caution and important

statements BEFORE starting a self-clean cycle:

DO NOT leave small children unattended

near the appliance. During the self-cleaning cycle, the

outside of the range can become very hot to touch and can

cause burns.

DO NOT line the oven walls, racks, bottom

or any other part of the range with aluminum foil. Doing

so will destroy heat distribution, produce poor baking results

and cause permanent damage to the oven interior.

Aluminum foil will melt to the interior of the oven.

The health of some birds is extremely

sensitive to the fumes given off during the self-cleaning

cycle of any range. Move birds to another well-ventilated

room.

DO NOT force the oven door open. This can

damage the automatic door locking system.

Use caution when opening the oven door

after self-cleaning. The oven may still be VERY HOT and

can cause burns. To avoid possible burns stand to the side

of the oven when opening the oven door to allow hot air or

steam to escape.

Care & Cleaning

Cleaning recommendation table

Surface type

Recommendation

For general cleaning, use hot, soapy water and a cloth. For more difficult soils and

built-up grease, apply a liquid detergent directly onto the soil. Leave on soil for 30-

60 minutes. Rinse with a damp cloth and dry. Do not use abrasive cleaners on any of

these materials; they can scratch. To remove control knobs, turn to OFF position;

grasp firmly and pull straight off the shaft. To replace knobs after cleaning, line up

the flat sides of both knob and shaft; then push knob into place.

Painted decorative trim

Aluminum, plastic or vinyl pieces

Control panel

Control key pad membrane

Decorative trim (some models)

Before cleaning the control panel, turn all controls OFF, activate oven lockout (on

some models) and if needed remove any knobs from panel. Do not use abrasive

cleaners on any of these materials; they can scratch. Clean using hot, soapy water

and a dishcloth. Be sure to squeeze excess water from dishcloth before wiping

control panel; especially when wiping around the controls area. Excess water in or

around the controls may cause damage to the appliance. When rinsing, use clean

water and a dishcloth and be sure to squeeze excess water from dishcloth before

wiping the control panel.

Porcelain enamel parts & door

liner

Gentle scrubbing with a soapy no-scratch cleaning pad will remove most spots. Rinse

with a 1:1 solution of clear water and ammonia. If necessary, cover difficult spots

with an ammonia-soaked paper towel for 30 to 40 minutes. Rinse with clean water

and a damp cloth, and then scrub with a soap-filled no-scratch cleaning pad. Rinse

and wipe dry with a clean cloth. Do not allow food spills with a high sugar or acid

content (milk, tomatoes, sauerkraut, fruit juices or pie filling) to remain on the

surface; they may cause a dull spot even after cleaning.

For oven interior remove excessive spillovers from oven cavity bottom before starting

Select Clean. Clean any soils from oven frame and door liner outside the oven door

gasket. For very important cleaning precautions be sure to read all the instructions in

the Select Clean section. Do not clean the oven door gasket.

Any additions, changes or conversions

required in order for this appliance to satisfactorily meet

the application needs must be made by an authorized

qualified agency.

Fig. 1 - Cooktop burner head

Cleaning surface burner heads

Routinely clean the cooktop. Wipe with a clean, damp

cloth and wipe dry to avoid scratches.

For proper gas flow it may be necessary to clean the burner

head and slots. To clean, first use a clean DAMP cloth to

soak up any spills. Remove any food from between the

burner slots using a small nonabrasive brush like a

toothbrush and afterwards wipe up using a damp cloth. For

stubborn soils located in the slots, use a small-gauge wire or

needle to clean.

Keeping the surface burner head ports and slots clean will

prevent improper ignition and an uneven flame. See the

following sections for more instructions.

Cleaning recessed and contoured areas of cooktop

If a spill occurs on or in the recessed or contoured areas,

blot up spill with an absorbent cloth. Rinse with a clean,

damp cloth and wipe dry.

Any spill on or around the electrode must be carefully

cleaned. Take care not to hit the electrode with any thing

hard or it could be damaged.

Cleaning surface burner grates

• Clean only after the grates are completely cool.

• Use nonabrasive plastic scrubbing pad and mild abrasive

cleanser or clean in the dishwasher.

• Food soils containing acids may affect the finish. Clean

immediately after the grates are cool.

To clean the burner head ignition ports

Each burner head has a small ignition port located as

shown. Should you experience ignition problems it may be

that this port hole is partially blocked with soil. With the

burner head in place, use a small wire gauge needle or the

end of a paper clip to clear the ignition port (Refer to Fig.

1; round style shown; oval burner on some models not

shown).

• Thoroughly dry grates immediately following cleaning.

Cleaning burner caps

• Remove caps from burner heads after they have cooled.

• Clean heavy soils with a plastic scrubbing pad and

absorbent cloth.

• Thoroughly dry burner caps immediately following

cleaning including the bottom and inside of cap.

• Do not use abrasive cleaners. They can scratch porcelain.

• Do not clean burner caps in the dishwasher.

• Do not operate surface burners without burner caps

properly in place. Read important notes.

Important notes:

• The surface burner heads are secured to the cooktop and

must be cleaned in place on the cooktop.

• Always keep the surface burner caps in place whenever

a surface burner is in use.

• When replacing the burner caps, be sure the burner caps

are seated firmly on top of the burner heads.

• For proper flow of gas and ignition of burners DO NOT

allow spills, food, cleaning agents or any other material

to enter the gas orifice port opening.

Care & Cleaning

General cleaning

Replacing oven light (some models)

Refer to the Cleaning recommendation table in the Care &

Cleaning section for more detailed information about

cleaning specific parts of the range.

Be sure the range is unplugged and all parts

are COOL before replacing oven light. Wear a leather-

faced glove for protection against possible broken glass.

Before manually cleaning any part of the

range, be sure all controls are turned OFF and the range is

COOL. The range may be hot and can cause burns.

The oven light is located at the rear of the oven cavity and

is covered with a glass shield held by a wire holder. The

glass shield protects the light bulb and must be in place

whenever the oven is in use.

Ammonia must be rinsed before operating the

oven. Provide adequate ventilation.

glass

shield

Aluminum foil and utensils

NEVER cover any slots, holes or passages in

the oven bottom or cover an entire oven 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 trap heat, causing a fire hazard.

wire

holder

• Aluminum foil - Use of aluminum foil on a hot cooktop

can damage the cooktop. Do not use thin aluminum

cooking utensils or allow aluminum foil to touch the

surface burners under ANY circumstances.

• Aluminum utensils - The melting point of aluminum is

much lower than that of other metals. Care must be taken

when aluminum pots or pans are used on the cooktop. If

aluminum pans are allowed to boil dry when using the

cooktop, the utensil may be damaged or destroyed.

To replace the interior oven light bulb:

1. Turn electrical power off at the main source or unplug

the range.
