power to the range at the circuit breaker or fuse box in case of an

emergency.

• User servicing--Do not repair or replace any part of the

appliance unless specifically recommended in the manuals.

All other servicing should be done only by a qualified technician,

This may reduce the risk of personal injury and damage to the

range.

• Never modify or alter the construction of a range by removing

IF_!_'lr_T_ Do not store items of interest to children in the

cabinets above a range or on the backguard of a range. Children

climbing on the range to reach items could be seriously injured.

Never Use Your Appliance for Warming or

Heating the Room.

•Storage in or on Appliance--Flammable materials should not

be stored in an oven, warmer drawer, near surface burners or

in the storage drawer. 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.

Important Safety Instructions

•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.

• DO NOT TOUCH SURFACE BURNERS, AREAS NEAR THESE

BURNERS, OVEN BURNERS OR INTERIOR SURFACES OF

THE OVEN. Both surface and oven burners may be hot even

though flames are not visible. Areas near surface burners may

become hot enough to cause burns. During and after use, do not

touch, or let clothing or other flammable materials touch these

areas until they have had sufficient time to cool. Among these

areas are the cook top, surfaces facing the cook top, the oven vent

openings and surfaces near these openings, oven door and

window.

• Wear Proper Apparel--Loose-fitting or hanging garments

should never be worn while using the appliance. Do not let

clothing or other flammable materials contact hot surfaces.

• Do Not Use Water or Flour on Grease Fires--Smother the fire

with a pan lid, or use baking soda, a dry chemical or foam-type

extinguisher.

• When heating fat or grease, watch it closely. Fat or grease may

catch fire if allowed to become too hot.

• Use Only Dry Potholders--Moist or damp potholders on hot

surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do not let potholders

touch hot heating burners. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth

instead of a potholder.

• Do Not Heat Unopened Food Containers--Buildup of pressure

may cause container to burst and result in injury.

• Remove the oven door from any unused range if it is to be

stored or discarded.

IMPORTANT--ELECTRIC IGNITION MODELS ONLY: Do not

attempt to operate the oven during a power failure. If the power fails,

always turn off the oven. If the oven is not turned off and the power

resumes, the oven will begin to operate again. Once the power

resumes, reset the clock and oven function.

IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USINGYOUR

COOKTOP

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.

• Knowwhich 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.

• 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.

• 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.

•Protective Liners--Do not use aluminum foil to line surface

burner pans, or oven bottom, except as suggested in this manual.

Improper installation of these liners may result in risk of electric

shock, or fire.

• Glazed Cooking Utensils--Only certain types of glass, glass/

ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed utensils are

suitable for cooktop service without breaking due to sudden

change in temperatures. Check the manufacturer's

recommendations for cooktop use.

IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING YOUR OVEN

• Use Care When Opening Oven Door or Warmer Drawer--

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.

• Placement of Oven Racks. Always place oven racks in desired

location while oven is cool. If rack must be moved while oven is

hot use extreme caution. Use potholders and grasp the rack with

both hands to reposition. Do not let potholders contact the hot

heating elements in the oven. Remove all utensils from the rack

before moving.

• Do not use the broiler pan without its insert. The broiler pan and

its insert allow dripping fat to drain and be kept away from the high

heat of the broiler.

• Do not cover the broiler insert with aluminum foil. Exposed fat

and grease could ignite.

• Cold temperatures can damage the electronic control. When

using the appliance for the first time, or when the appliance has

not been used for an extended period of time, be certain the unit

has been in temperatures above 32°F (0°C) for at least 3 hours

before turning on the power to the appliance.

IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR CLEANING

YOUR RANGE

• Clean the range regularly to keep all parts free of grease that

could catch fire. Pay particular attention to the area underneath

each surface element. Do not allow grease to accumulate. Refer

to the range manufacturer's instructions for cleaning.

• 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.

SELF CLEANING OVENS

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

& Care Guide. Before self cleaning the oven, remove the broiler

pan and any utensils or foods from the oven.

• 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.

• 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.

Before Setting Oven Controls

OVEN VENT

, i

Fig. 1

Fig. 2

Oven Vent Location

The oven vent is located below the backguard (See Fig. 1). When the oven

is on, warm air is released through this vent. This venting is necessary for

proper air circulation in the oven and good baking results. DO NOT BLOCK

THE VENT.

Arranging Oven Racks

ALWAYS ARRANGE OVEN RACKS WHEN THE OVEN IS COOL (PRIOR TO

OPERATING THE OVEN). Always use oven mitts when using the oven.

Removing & Replacing Oven Racks

To remove, pull the rack forward until it stops. Lift up front of rack and

slide out. To replace, fit the rack onto the guides on the oven walls.

Tilt the front of the rack upward and slide the rack back into place.

Recommended Rack Positions for Broiling, Baking & Roasting:

Food Rack Position

Broiling hamburgers & steaks 1

Broiling meats, chicken orfish 1, 2 or 3

Cookies, cakes, pies, biscuits 3 or4

& Muffins

Frozen pies, angel food cake, 5 or 6

yeast, bread, casseroles, small

cuts of meat or poultry

Turkey, roast or ham 5 or 6

Types of Oven Racks

Your range may be equipped with one or more of the oven

rack types shown; Flat Rack, or Handle Rack.

Oven Rack

Baking Layer Cakes with 1 or 2 Oven Racks

For best results when baking cakes using 2 oven racks, place cookware on oven rack positions 2 & 5 (Refer to Figs. 2 & 3).

When using a single oven rack, place cookware on oven rack position 3 or 4 (Refer to Fig.s 2 & 4).

Air Circulation in the Oven

For best air circulation and 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. The hot air

must be able to circulate around the

pans and cookware in the oven for

even heat to reach around the food.

Fig. 3 Fig. 4

Setting Surface Controls

Do not place plastic

items such as salt and pepper shakers,

spoon holders or plastic wrappings

on top of the range when it is in use.

These items could melt or ignite.

Potholders, towels or wood spoons could

catch fire if placed too close to a flame.

In the event of an electrical power outage,

the surface burners can be lit manually.

To light a surface burner, hold a lit match

to the burner head, then slowly turn the

surface control knob to LITE. After bumer

lights push in and turn knob to desired

setting. Use caution when lighting surface

burners manually.

Setting Surface Controls

Your range may be equipped with different sized surface burners. The ability to

heat food quicker and in larger volumes increases as the burner size increases.

The SIMMER burner (some models) is best used for simmering delicate sauces,

etc.

The standard burners can be used for most surface cooking needs.

The POWER burner or burners (some models) are best used for bringing large

quantities of liquid to temperature and when preparing larger quantities of food.

Regardless of size, always select cookware that is suitable for the amount and

type of food being prepared. Select a burner and flame size appropriate to the pan.

Never allow flames to extend beyond the outer edge of the pan.

Operating the Gas Surface Burners:

1. Place cooking utensil on surface burner.

2. Push the surface control knob in and turn counterclockwise out of the OFF

position.

3. Release the knob and rotate to the LtTE position. Note: All four electronic

surface ignitors will spark at the same time. However, only the burner you are

turning on will ignite.

3. Visually check that the burner has lit.

4. Push the control knob in and turn counterclockwise to the desired flame size.

The control knobs do not have to be set at a particular setting. Use the guides

and adjust the flame as needed. DO NOT cook with the surface control knob

in the LITE position. (The electronic ignitor will continue to spark if the knob

is left in the LITE position.)

r

CORRECT

Setting Proper Surface Burner Flame Size

For most cooking, start on the highest control setting and then turn to a lower

one to complete the process. Use the recommendations below as a guide for

determining proper flame size for various types of cooking. The size and type

of utensil used and the amount of food being cooked will influence the setting

needed for cooking.

INCORRECT

*Flame Size

High Flame

Medium Flame

Low Flame

Type of Cooking

Start most foods; bring water to a boil; pan broiling.

Maintain a slow boil; thicken sauces, gravies; steaming.

Keep foods cooking; poach; stewing.

Never extend the flame beyond the outer]

edge of the utensil. A higher flame simplyl

wastes heat and energy, and increasesl

your risk of being burned by the flame. ]

For deep fat frying, use a thermometer and adjust the surface control 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

undercooked. Do not attempt to deep fat fry too much food at once as the food

will neither brown nor cook properly.

*These settings are based on using medium-weight metal or aluminum pans with lids. Settings may vary when using

other types of pans. 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.

Self-Cleaning Oven

A Self-Cleaning oven cleans itself with high temperatures (well above cooking

temperatures) which eliminate soils completely or reduces them to a fine

powdered ash you can wipe away with a damp cloth.

Adhere to the following cleaning precautions:

•DO NOT use oven cleaners or oven protective coatings in or around any

part of the Self-Cleaning oven.

• DO NOT clean the oven door gasket. 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.

• Remove the broiler pan and insert, all utensils and any aluminum

foil. These items cannot withstand high cleaning temperatures.

• Oven racks do not have to be removed. If they are not removed during the

Self-Clean cycle their color will turn slightly blue and the finish will be dull.

After the cycle is complete and the oven has cooled, rub the sides of the

oven racks with wax paper or a cloth containing a small amount of salad oil

(this will make the racks glide easier into the rack position).

• Remove any excessive spillovers in the oven cavity before starting the

Self-Cleaning 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.

• Clean any soil from the oven frame, the door liner outside the oven door

gasket and the small area at the front center of the oven bottom. These

areas heat sufficiently to burn soil on. Clean with soap and water.

NOTE: Prior to setting the Self-Clean cycle, any spills remaining on the oven

bottom should be removed.
