Warnings

To Prevent Fire or Smoke Damage

• Be sure all packing materials are removed from the appliance before

operating it.

• Keep area around appliance clear and free from combustible materials,

gasoline, and other flammable vapors and materials.

• If appliance is installed near a window, proper precautions should be taken

to prevent curtains from blowing over burners.

Cooking Safety

• To eliminate the hazard of reaching over hot surface burners, cabinet

storage should not be provided directly above a unit. If storage is provided,

it should be limited to items which are used infrequently and which are

safely stored in an area subjected to heat from an appliance. Temperatures

may be unsafe for some items, such as volatile liquids, cleaners or

aerosol sprays.

•

NEVER leave any items on the rangetop. The hot air from the vent may ignite

flammable items and may increase pressure in closed containers which may

cause them to burst.

• ALWAYS place a pan on a surface burner before turning it on. Be sure you

know which knob controls which surface burner. Make sure the correct

burner is turned on and that the burner has ignited. When cooking is

completed, turn burner off before removing pan to prevent exposure to

burner flame.

• ALWAYS adjust surface burner flame so that it does not extend beyond the

bottom edge of the pan. An excessive flame is hazardous, wastes energy

and may damage the appliance, pan or cabinets above the appliance. This is

based on safety considerations.

• Many aerosol-type spray cans are EXPLOSIVE when exposed to heat and

may be highly flammable. Avoid their use or storage near an appliance.

• Many plastics are vulnerable to heat. Keep plastics away from parts of the

appliance that may become warm or hot. DO NOT leave plastic items on

the rangetop as they may melt or soften if left too close to the vent or a

lighted surface burner.

• Combustible items (paper, plastic, etc.) may ignite and metallic items

may become hot and cause burns. DO NOT pour spirits over hot foods.

DO NOT leave oven unsupervised when drying herbs, breads,

mushrooms, etc; fire hazard.

• NEVER leave a surface cooking operation unattended especially

when using a high heat setting or when deep fat frying. Boilovers cause

smoking and greasy spillovers may ignite. Clean up greasy spills as soon as

possible. DO NOT use high heat for extended cooking operations.

• NEVER heat an unopened container on the surface burner or in the oven.

Pressure build-up may cause container to burst resulting in serious personal

injury or damage to the appliance.

• Use dry, sturdy pot-holders. Damp pot-holders may cause burns from steam.

Dishtowels or other substitutes should NEVER be used as potholders

because they can trail across hot surface burners and ignite or get caught on

appliance parts.

In Case of Fire

Turn off appliance and ventilating hood to avoid spreading the flame.

Extinguish flame, then turn on hood to remove smoke and odor.

• Cooktop: Smother fire or flame in a pan with a lid or cookie sheet.

• NEVER pick up or move a flaming pan.

• Oven: Smother fire or flame by closing the oven door.

DO NOT use water on grease fires. Use baking soda, a dry chemical or

foam-type extinguisher to smother fire or flame.

• ALWAYS let quantities of hot fat used for deep fat frying cool before

attempting to move or handle.

• DO NOT let cooking grease or other flammable materials accumulate in or

near the appliance, hood or vent fan. Clean hood frequently to prevent

grease from accumulating on hood or filter. When flaming foods under the

hood, turn the fan off.

Child Safety

• NEVER leave children alone or unsupervised near the appliance when it is in

use or is still hot.

• NEVER allow children to sit or stand on any part of the appliance as they

could be injured or burned.

• DO NOT store items of interest to children over the unit. Children climbing

to reach items could be seriously injured.

• Children must be taught that the appliance and utensils in it can be hot.

Let hot utensils cool in a safe place, out of reach of small children.

Children should be taught that an appliance is not a toy. Children should not

be allowed to play with controls or other parts of the appliance.

• NEVER wear garments made of flammable material or loose fitting or long-

sleeved apparel while cooking. Clothing may ignite or catch utensil handles.

• ALWAYS place oven racks in the desired positions while oven is cool. Slide

oven rack out to add or remove food, using dry, sturdy potholders. ALWAYS

avoid reaching into the oven to add or remove food. If a rack must be

moved while hot, use a dry potholder.

• ALWAYS turn the oven off at the end of cooking.

• Use care when opening the oven door. Let hot air or steam escape before

moving or replacing food.

Warnings

Cooking Safety (cont.)

Utensil Safety (cont.)

• NEVER use aluminum foil to cover oven racks or oven bottom. This could

result in risk of electric shock, fire, or damage to the appliance. Use foil only

as directed in this guide.

• This appliance has been tested for safe performance using conventional

cookware. DO NOT use any devices or accessories that are not specifically

recommended in this guide. DO NOT use eyelid covers for the surface units,

stovetop grills, or add-on oven convection systems. The use of devices or

accessories that are not expressly recommended in this manual can create

serious safety hazards, result in performance problems, and reduce the life

of the components of the appliance.

• PREPARED FOOD WARNING: Follow food manufacturer's instructions. If a

plastic frozen food container and/or its cover distorts, warps, or is otherwise

damaged during cooking, immediately discard the food and its container. The

food could be contaminated

• If you are “flaming” liquor or other spirits under an exhaust, TURN THE

FAN OFF. The draft could cause the flames to spread out of control.

• Once the unit has been installed as outlined in the Installation

Instructions, it is important that the fresh air supply is not obstructed.

The use of a gas cooking appliance results in the production of heat and

moisture in the room in which it is installed. Ensure that the kitchen is

well-ventilated. Keep natural venting holes open or install a mechanical

ventilation device. Prolonged or intensive use of the appliance may call

for additional (such as opening a window) or more effective ventilation

(such as increasing the level of a mechanical ventilation if present).

• The flame of the burner should be adjusted to just cover the bottom of

the pan or pot. Excessive burner setting may cause scorching of

adjacent counter-top surfaces, as well as the outside of the utensil. This

is based on safety considerations.

Heating Elements

• NEVER touch oven heating elements, areas near elements, or interior

surfaces of oven.

• Heating elements may be hot even though they are dark in color. Areas near

elements and interior surfaces of an oven may become hot enough to cause

burns.

Utensil Safety

•

During and after use, DO NOT touch or let clothing or other flammable

materials contact heating elements, areas near elements, or interior surfaces

of oven until they have had sufficient time to cool.

• 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.

Cleaning Safety

• Turn off all controls and wait for appliance parts to cool before touching or

cleaning them. DO NOT touch the burner grates or surrounding areas until

they have had sufficient time to cool.

• 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.

• Clean appliance with caution. Use care to avoid steam burns if a wet sponge

or cloth is used to wipe spills on a hot surface. Some cleaners can produce

noxious fumes if applied to a hot surface.

Self-Clean Oven

•

Clean only parts listed in this guide. 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. DO NOT use oven cleaners of any kind in or around any

part of the self-clean oven.

• 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.

• Only certain types of glass, glass/ceramic, ceramic or glazed utensils are

suitable for rangetop surface or oven usage without breaking due to the

sudden change in temperature. Follow manufacturer's instructions when

using glass.

• Before self-cleaning the oven, remove broiler pan, oven racks and other

utensils and wipe up excessive spillovers to prevent excessive smoke,

flare-ups or flaming.

• This range features a cooling fan which operates automatically during a

clean cycle. If the fan does not turn on, cancel the clean operation and

contact an authorized servicer.

• It is normal for the rangetop cooking surface of the range to become hot

during a self-clean cycle. Therefore, touching the rangetop cooking surface

during a clean cycle should be avoided.

Warnings

Important Safety Notice and Warning

WARNING

The California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986

(Proposition 65) requires the Governor of California to publish a list of

substances known to the State of California to cause cancer or

reproductive harm, and requires businesses to warn customers of potential

exposures to such substances. Users of this appliance are hereby warned

that when the oven is engaged in the self-clean cycle, there may be some

low-level exposure to some of the listed substances, including carbon

monoxide. Exposure to these substances can be minimized by properly

venting the oven to the outdoors by opening the windows and/or door in

the room where the appliance is located during the self-clean cycle.

ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD

DO NOT touch a hot oven light bulb with a damp cloth as

the bulb could break. Should the bulb break, disconnect

power to the appliance before removing bulb to avoid

electrical shock.

WARNING

ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD

Disconnect the electric power at the main fuse or circuit

breaker before replacing bulb.

Important notice regarding pet birds:

NEVER keep pet birds in the kitchen or in rooms where the fumes from the

kitchen could reach. Birds have a very sensitive respiratory system. Fumes

released during an oven self-cleaning cycle may be harmful or fatal to

birds. Fumes released due to overheated cooking oil, fat, margarine and

overheated non-stick cookware may be equally harmful.

WARNING

BURN OR ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD

Make sure all controls are OFF and oven is COOL before

cleaning. Failure to do so can result in burns or electrical

shock.

Before Using Range

Warnings

All products are wiped clean with solvents at the factory to remove any

visible signs of dirt, oil, and grease which may have remained from the

manufacturing process. Before starting to cook, clean the range

thoroughly with hot, soapy water. There may be some burn off and

odors on first use of the appliance—this is normal.

WARNING

This range features a self-cleaning cycle. During this cycle, the oven

reaches elevated temperatures in order to burn off soil and deposits. A

powder ash residue is left in the bottom of the oven after completion of

the self-clean cycle.

Oven

Note: DO NOT use commercial oven cleaners inside the oven. Use of

these cleaners can produce hazardous fumes or can damage the

porcelain finishes. DO NOT line the oven with aluminum foil or other

materials. These items can melt or burn during a self-clean cycle,

causing permanent damage to the oven.

Important! Before first use, wipe interior with soapy water and dry

thoroughly. Then set the oven selector to bake, the thermostat to

450°F, and operate for an hour.

All models include:

• A broad range of baking and broiling modes—up to eight cooking

modes in all—to make even your most challenging baking projects

a success.

• Exclusive one-piece tooled and porcelainized cooking surface

contains spills for easy cleaning.

• Split baking and broiling elements—which reduces preheating time

and provides greater control and more even heating.

• A reversing convection fan which is two times larger than most on

the market—this allows you to cook foods more thoroughly and

evenly—even when baking large quantities.

CAUTION

DO NOT touch the exterior portions of the oven after

self-cleaning cycle has begun, since some parts become

extremely hot to the touch!

During the first few times the self-cleaning feature is used, there may

be some odor and smoking from the “curing” of the binder in the high-

density insulation used in the oven. When the insulation is thoroughly

cured, this odor will disappear. During subsequent self-cleaning

cycles, you may sense an odor characteristic of high temperatures.

• Four convection modes offering greater air circulation to shorten

cooking times and cook foods more evenly.

• Three broiling modes including a low-broil mode for delicate

broiling and top-browning.

KEEP THE KITCHEN WELL-VENTED DURING THE

SELF-CLEAN CYCLE.

• A profiled, concealed bake element for easier cleaning.

• This appliance is certified by Star-K to meet strict regulations in

conjunction with specific instructions found on www.star-k.org.

Surface Cooking Tips (cont.)

Lighting Burners

All burners are ignited by electric ignition. There

are no open-flame, “standing” pilots.

• 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.

Surface Burners-Automatic Reignition

To light the surface burners, push and turn the

appropriate control knob counter clockwise to any

• 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.

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.

• The minimum pot or pan (vessel) diameter recommended is 6”

(15 cm). Use of pots or pans as small as 4” (10 cm) is possible but

not recommended.

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.

Using the Oven

Cooking Vessels

Preheat

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.

For best results, it is extremely

important that you preheat your oven

to the desired cooking temperature

before placing food items in the oven

to begin cooking. In many cooking

modes, partial power from the broiler is

used to bring the oven to the preheat temperature.

Therefore, placing food items in the oven during the

preheat mode is not recommended. The Viking Rapid

Ready™ Preheat System is engineered so that the oven is

brought to the desired set temperature in a manner which will provide

the optimum cooking environment based on the selected cooking

mode in the shortest possible time.

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

For instance, the preheat mode for TruConvec™ is designed to be

brought up to the set point temperature in a different manner than the

preheat mode for conventional bake. This is because TruConvec is

designed for multi-rack baking. So it is extremely critical that all rack

Broil element

positions have reached the desired cooking temperature. As a result, it

is normal for oven to take slightly longer for the oven to preheat to

350°F in TruConvec mode when compared to the amount of time it

takes to preheat the oven cavity to 350°F in conventional bake mode.

Three full

Also, preheat time can vary based on some external factors such as

room temperature and power supply. A significantly colder room

temperature or a power supply less than 240 VAC can lengthen the

time it takes for the oven to reach the desired set temperature.

Rack Positions

Each oven is equipped with three full extension glide 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.

Using the Oven

Conventional and Convection Cooking

Conventional and Convection Cooking (cont.)

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.

This is perfectly normal. Convection cooking is a cooking technique

which utilizes fan forced air to circulate heat throughout the entire

oven creating the optimum cooking environment. Cooking with

convection is intended when performing multi-rack baking and for

baking heavier foods. Below are tips which will allow you to get the

best results out of your oven when cooking with convection.

• Some recipes, especially those that are homemade, may require

adjustment and testing when converting from standard to

convection modes. If unsure how to convert a recipe, begin by

preparing the recipe in conventional bake. After achieving

acceptable results, follow the convection guidelines listed for the

similar food type. If the food is not prepared to your satisfaction

during this first convection trial, adjust only one recipe variable at a

time (cooking time, rack position, or temperature) and repeat the

convection test. Continue adjusting one recipe variable at a time

until satisfactory results are achieved.

Pan Placement Tips

• As a general rule, to convert conventional recipes to convection

recipes, reduce the temperature by 25°F (-3.9°C) and the cooking

time by approximately 10 to 15%.

• 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. This is

especially true for large items cooked in the convection roast

function.

• 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 one

of the convection modes and the 2nd and 4th position or the 3rd

and 5th position for more even baking. When baking on three racks,

use any combination of positions 2, 3, 4, and 5 for more consistent

results.

• 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.

• A major benefit of convection cooking is the ability to prepare foods

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.

Multiple Rack Pan

Placement

Single Rack Pan

Placement

• 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.

See “Oven Features” illustration on page 18.

• Items cooked in a convection function can be easily over-baked. This

being the case, it is usually a good idea to pull items out of the oven

just before they seem to be done. Items will continue to cook right

after they are set out of the oven.

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.

convection bake

circulation of air equalizes the

temperature throughout the oven cavity and eliminates the hot and

cold spots found in conventional ovens. A major benefit of convection

baking is the ability to prepare food in quantity using multiple racks—

a feature not possible in a standard oven.

When roasting using this setting, cool air is quickly replaced, searing

meats on the outside and retaining more juices and natural flavor on

the inside with less shrinkage. With this heating method, foods can be

baked and roasted at the same time with minimal taste transfer, even

when different dishes are involved, such as cakes, fish or meat. The hot

air system is especially economical when thawing frozen food. Use this

setting for baking and roasting.

Proofing

This setting is designed for allowing yeast dough to rise to a temperature

between 85°F (29°C) and 100°F ( 38°C). Yeast doughs rise or “proof”

best when the temperature is between 85°F (29°C) and 100°F (38°C).

To make sure the dough is warm enough, cover the bowl loosely with

plastic wrap and/or cloth towel. Turn the oven function selector to

“PROOF”. Turn Temperature control until the oven light comes on

(typically around 200 degrees on the knob setting). Note that the Proof

function is designed to keep the oven between 85°F and 100°F

regardless of what temperature the knob is set at. Place the bowl on

the center rack of the oven and close door. When you think the dough

has doubled in size, lightly poke 2 fingers about 1/2” (1.3 cm) into the

dough. If the indentation remains, the dough has risen enough.

Roasting

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.

CONV ROAST*

(Convection Roast)

The convection element runs in

conjunction with the inner and

outer broil elements. The

reversible convection fan runs at

a higher speed in each

direction. This transfer of heat

(mainly from the convection

element) seals moisture inside

of large roasts. A time savings is

gained over existing, single fan convection roast modes. Use this

setting for whole turkeys, whole chickens, hams, etc.

Roasting Tips

ALWAYS use the broiler pan and grid supplied with each oven. The

hot air must be allowed to circulate around the item being roasted.

DO NOT cover what is being roasted. Convection roasting seals in

juices quickly for a moist, tender product. Poultry will have a light,

crispy skin and meats will be browned, not dry or burned. Cook meats

and poultry directly from the refrigerator. There is no need for meat or

poultry to stand at room temperature.

4. Adjust to conventional

or convection setting

as needed

5. Pan too large

5. Use proper pan

Food too brown on

1. Rack position too high 1. Use recom. rack position

2. Oven not preheated

3. Sides of pan too high

1. Hot cookie sheet

2. Allow oven to preheat

3. Use proper pans

1. Allow sheet to cool

between batches

• As a general rule, to convert conventional recipes to convection

recipes, reduce the temperature by 25°F (-3.9°C) and the cooking

time by approximately 10 to 15%.

Cookies too flat

Pies burned around

edges

1. Oven too hot

2. Too many pans used

3. Oven not preheated

1. Reduce temperature

2. Reduce no. of pans

3. Allow oven to preheat

•

ALWAYS roast meats fat side up in a shallow pan using a roasting

rack. No basting is required when the fat side is up. DO NOT add

water to the pan as this will cause a steamed effect. Roasting is a dry

heat process.

Pies too light on top

1. Oven not hot enough 1. Increase temperature

2. Too many pans used

3. Oven not preheated

2. Reduce no. of pans

3. Allow oven to preheat

• Poultry should be placed breast side up on a rack in a shallow pan.

Brush poultry with melted butter, margarine, or oil before and during

roasting.

• For convection roasting, DO NOT use pans with tall sides as this will

interfere with the circulation of heated air over the food.

• If using a cooking bag, foil tent, or other cover, use the conventional

bake setting rather than either convection setting.

Roasting Tips (cont.)

Conventional Roasting Chart

(when using the Bake or Convection Bake setting)

• When using a meat thermometer, insert the probe halfway into the

center of the thickest portion of the meat. (For poultry insert the

thermometer probe between the body and leg into the thickest part

of the inner thigh.) The tip of the probe should not touch bone,

fat, or gristle to ensure an accurate reading. Check the meat

temperature halfway through the recommended roasting time. After

reading the thermometer once, insert it ⁄

the meat, then take a second reading. If the second temperature

registers below the first, continue cooking the meat.

• Roasting times ALWAYS vary according to the size, shape and quality

of meats and poultry. Less tender cuts of meat are best prepared in

the conventional bake setting and may require moist cooking

techniques. Remove roasted meats from the oven when the

thermometer registers 5°F (-15°C) to 10˚ F (-12°C) lower than the

desired doneness. The meat will continue to cook after removal from

the oven. Allow roasts to stand 15 to 20 minutes after roasting in

order to make carving easier.

• 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

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.

• 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.

Conventional broiling (LOW, MED or HI BROIL) 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

1. Arrange the oven rack in the desired position before turning

broiler on.

Rack Positions for Broiling

Note: Position 6 is the closest to the broiler and position 1 is the

closest to the oven bottom.

2. Center the food on cold broiler pan and grid supplied with your

oven. Place broiler pan in oven.

3. Set the oven function selector to desired broiling function and the

temperature control knob to “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.

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.

Cleaning and Maintenance

Burner Head

Control Knobs

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.

MAKE SURE ALL THE CONTROL KNOBS POINT TO THE OFF

POSITION BEFORE REMOVING. Pull the knobs straight off. Wash in

detergent and warm water. Dry completely and replace by pushing firmly

onto stem.

Stainless Steel Parts

All stainless steel body parts should be wiped regularly with hot soapy

water at the end of each cooling period and with a liquid cleaner

designed for that material when soapy water will not do the job.

DO NOT use steel wool, abrasive cloths, cleansers, or powders. If

necessary, scrape stainless steel to remove encrusted materials, soak the

area with hot towels to loosen the material, then use a wooden or nylon

spatula or scraper. DO NOT use a metal knife, spatula, or any other

metal tool to scrape stainless steel. DO NOT permit citrus or tomato

juice to remain on stainless steel surface, as citric acid will permanently

discolor stainless steel. Wipe up any spills immediately.

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.

Broiler Pan and Grid

Clean with detergent and hot water. For stubborn spots, use a soap-filled

steel wool pad.

• Wipe up any spills which remain on the sealed top surface.

• Replace burner cap, burner head, and grates after drying thoroughly.

Oven Racks

Clean with detergent and hot water. Stubborn spots can be scoured

with a soap-filled steel wool pad. DO NOT CLEAN THE OVEN RACKS

OR RACK SUPPORT USING THE SELF-CLEAN CYCLE. They could

sustain damage due to the extreme heat of the Self-Clean cycle.

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.

Your oven features a self-clean cycle for the oven interior. See the

“Self-Clean Cycle” section for complete instructions. NEVER USE

AMMONIA, STEEL WOOL PADS OR ABRASIVE CLOTHS, CLEANSERS,

OVEN CLEANERS, OR ABRASIVE POWDERS. THEY CAN

PERMANENTLY DAMAGE YOUR OVEN.

Cleaning and Maintenance

Self-Clean Cycle

Power Failure

This oven features an automatic pyrolytic self-cleaning cycle. During

this cycle, the oven reaches elevated temperatures in order to burn-off

soil and deposits. An integral smoke eliminator helps reduce odors

associated with the soil burn-off. A powder ash residue is left in the

bottom of the oven after completion of the self-clean cycle. The door

latch is automatically activated after selecting the self-clean setting.

The latch ensures that the door cannot be opened while the oven

interior is at clean temperatures.

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.

WARNING

POWER FAILURE WARNING

Due to safety considerations and the possibility of personal injury in

attempting to light and extinguish the burner, the grill should, not under

any circumstances, be used during a power failure. The grill burner

control should always remain in the “OFF” position during a power failure.

Before starting the Self-Clean cycle:

1. Remove the oven racks, and any other items/utensils from the oven.

The high heat generated during the cleaning cycle can discolor,

warp, and damage these items. DO NOT use foil or liners in the

oven. During the self-clean cycle, foil can burn or melt and damage

the oven surface.

Momentary power failure can occur unnoticed. The range is affected only

when the power is interrupted. When it comes back on, the range will

function properly without any adjustments. A “brown-out” may or may

not affect range operation, depending on how severe the power loss is.

If the range is in the self-clean cycle when the power failure occurs, wait

until power is restored and allow door to unlock automatically. Turn all

controls off and restart self-clean cycle again, according to instructions.

2. Wipe off any large spills from the oven bottom and sides. NEVER

use oven cleaners inside a self-cleaning oven or on raised portions

of the door.

3. Some areas of the oven must be cleaned by hand before the cycle

begins. Soils in these areas will be baked on and very difficult to

clean if not removed first. Clean the door up to the gasket, the

door frame, and up to 2 inches inside the frame with detergent and

hot water. Rinse thoroughly and dry.

WARNING

BURN OR ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD

Make sure all controls are OFF and oven is COOL before cleaning.

Failure to do so can result in burns or electrical shock.

CAUTION

DO NOT touch the exterior portions of the oven after self-cleaning

cycle has begun, since some parts become extremely hot to the touch!

During the first few times the self-cleaning feature is used, there may

be some odor and smoking from the “curing” of the binder in the high-

density insulation used in the oven. When the insulation is thoroughly

cured, this odor will disappear. During subsequent self-cleaning

cycles, you may sense an odor characteristic of high temperatures.

KEEP THE KITCHEN WELL-VENTED DURING THE

SELF-CLEAN CYCLE.

Replacing Oven Lights

Self-Clean Cycle

To start the Self-Clean cycle:

1. Close the door completely.

WARNING

ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD

Disconnect the electric power at the main fuse or circuit

breaker before replacing bulb.

2. Turn the oven selector knob clockwise to the “SELF CLEAN” mode.

3. Turn the temperature control knob past the clean setting until the

knob stops. At this time, the clean indicator light will come on.

Within 30 seconds the automatic door latch engages and the oven

indicator light comes on. The oven indicator light will remain on

until the oven reaches the self-clean temperature and will then cycle

on and off during the self-clean cycle. When the oven reaches the

elevated temperature needed for self-clean, the door lock indicator

light comes on.

WARNING

DO NOT touch bulb with bare hands. Clean off any signs of oil from

the bulb and handle with a soft cloth.

4. The door lock indicator light will remain on until the self-clean is

completed or interrupted and the oven temperature drops to a safe

temperature. A complete cycle is approximately 3-1/2 hours with an

additional 30 minutes needed for the oven to cool down enough

for the door latch to disengage.
