CHOKING HAZARD. SMALL PARTS. NOT FOR CHILDREN

UNDER 3 YEARS OLD.

KEEP FLAMMABLE MATERIALS AWAY FROM THE BURNERS. DO NOT STORE MATERIALS

SUCH AS PAPER TOWELS, HAND TOWELS, OR OTHER COMBUSTIBLE MATERIALS NEAR

BURNERS. FAILURE TO DO SO MAY RESULT IN FIRE OR BODILY INJURY.

TO START THE BURNER:

1. Push in and turn knob counterclockwise to the “IGNITE” position and hold.

2. All surface burners will click. However, only the burner with the control knob turned to

“IGNITE” will produce a ﬂame.

3. Turn knob to adjust ﬂame level between HI and LO.

4. If a burner does not start a ﬂame, turn knob to the off position and repeat step 1.

NOTES:

• Electric igniters automatically light the surface burners when control knobs are turned

to “IGNITE”.

• Before turning a burner on, place ﬁlled cookware on the grate.

• Do not operate a burner using empty cookware or without cookware on the grate.

• The ﬂame should be adjusted so it does not extend beyond the edge of the pan.

• CAUTION: NEVER LEAVE THE IGNITED BURNERS UNATTENDED WHILE COOKING.

FOOD MAY IGNITE CAUSING A FIRE IN PAN OR SURROUNDING AREAS.

BAKE/BROIL CYCLE:

When the range is set to the “Bake” or “Broil” setting, you will hear a few clicking noises as

the burners ignite in the oven. This is the normal operation of the range.

• 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’s controls are accessed through its control panel.

POWER FAILURE:

In case of prolonged power failure, the surface burners can be lit manually. To light manually,

hold a lit match near a burner and the turn knob counterclockwise to “IGNITE.” After burner

lights, turn knob to desired setting.

• The right front burner is designed to give maximum power when fully on. It can be used

to rapidly bring liquid to a boil and to cook large quantities of food.

• The right rear burner allows for more precise simmering and low temperature cooking.

Cleaning” section.

Gas Tube Opening: Gas must ﬂow freely throughout the gas tube opening for the burner to

light properly. Keep this area free of debris. Do not allow spills, food, cleaning agents or any

other material to enter the gas tube opening. Keep spillovers out of the gas tube by always

using a burner cap.

Burner Ports: Check the burner ﬂames for proper size and shape when cooking. See illus-

tration at right. The ﬂame size should match the size of the cookware you are using. A good

ﬂame is blue in color. Keep this area free of debris. Do not allow spills, food, cleaning agents

or any other material to enter the burner ports.

NOTE

• Rough ﬁnishes may scratch the cook-

top or grates. Aluminum and copper

core/base cookware may be used.

• Cookware material is a factor in how

quickly and evenly heat is transferred,

which affects cooking results.

• Cookware with nonstick surfaces

should not be used under the broiler.

• Check for ﬂatness by placing the

straight edge of a ruler across the bot-

tom of the cookware. While you rotate

the ruler, no space or light should be

visible between it and the cookware.

For best results, the cookware should be

centered above the burner with the bottom

sitting level on the grate. The ﬂame should

be adjusted so that it does not extend up

the sides of the pan.

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.

FOOD SAFETY

Cook food thoroughly to help protect against any food borne illnesses. Use a food thermom-

eter to take food temperatures and check in different locations.

FOOD POISONING HAZARD

DO NOT LET FOOD SIT IN THE OVEN MORE THAN ONE HOUR BEFORE OR AFTER

COOKING. DOING SO CAN RESULT IN FOOD POISONING OR SICKNESS.

COOK TIME

The cook time function is available in the Bake or Broil Hi/Lo mode.

HOW TO SET THE COOK TIME FUNCTION

1) When you’re cooking with “Bake” OR “Broil Li/Lo,” If a set cooking time is desired, press

the “Cook Time” pad.

• To avoid damage to the broiler, do not step on or apply weight to the broiler door while it

is open.

• Use caution when using the broiler, food may cook or burn quicker than in the oven.

• Do not leave food unattended while food is cooking in the broiler.

• Preheat the broiler before use. Completely close broil door during broiling.

• Do not use broiler cavity for storage.

• Broiling uses direct radiant heat to cook food. The lower the temperature, the slower the

cooking. Thicker cuts and unevenly shaped pieces of meat, ﬁsh and poultry may cook

better at lower broiling temperatures.

• For best results, use a broiler pan and grid. It is designed to drain juices and help avoid

spatter and smoke.

• Pull out the rack to the stop position before turning or removing food. Use tongs to turn

food. Very thin cuts of ﬁsh, poultry or meat may not need to be turned.

OVEN VENT

DAMAGE POTENTIAL

THE OVEN VENT RELEASES HOT AIR AND MOISTURE FROM

THE OVEN. THE VENT SHOULD NOT BE BLOCKED OR

COVERED. BLOCKING OR COVERING THE OVEN VENT WILL

CAUSE POOR AIR CIRCULATION, AFFECTING THE COOKING

RESULTS. DO NOT SET PLASTIC, PAPER OR OTHER ITEMS

THAT COULD MELT OR BURN NEAR THE OVEN VENT.

FIRE HAZARD

DO NOT LEAVE THE RANGE UNATTENDED WHEN USING

THE BROILER.
