Important Safety Instructions WARNING Do not use the oven or warm & serve drawer (if equipped) for storage. CAUTION Do not store items of interest to children in the cabinets above the appliance. Children climbing on the cooktop to reach items could be seriously injured. 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.
Important Safety Instructions WARNING Do not use stove top grills on your sealed gas burners. If you use a stove top grill on a sealed gas burner, it will cause incomplete combustion and can result in exposure to carbon monoxide levels above allowable current standards. This can be hazardous to your health. • Always turn the knob to the full LITE position when igniting top burners. Visually check that the burner has lit. Then adjust the flame so it does not extend beyond the edge of the utensil.
Important Safety Instructions • Do not clean the oven 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. No oven cleaner or oven liner protective coating of any kind should be used in or around any part of the appliance. • Remove oven racks. Oven racks color will change if left in the oven during a self-cleaning cycle.

before setting surface controls Control locations of the gas surface burners Your built-in range is equipped with gas surface burners with different BTU ratings. The ability to heat food quicker and in larger volumes increases as the burner size increases. The small simmer burner is best used for simmering delicate sauces, etc. This burner is located at the right rear burner position on the cooktop (see Figures 1). The standard burner can be used for most surface cooking needs.
setting surface controls Operating the gas surface controls 1. Place cooking utensil on surface burner. 2. Push the surface control knob down and turn counterclockwise out of the OFF position. 3. Release the knob and rotate to the LITE position (see figures 1 & 2). Note: All four electronic surface ignitors will spark at the same time. However, only the burner you are turning on will ignite. 4. Visually check that the burner has a flame. 5. Turn the control knob counterclockwise to the desired flame size.
BEFORE SETTING OVEN CONTROLS Oven vent location The oven is vented at the center rear of the cooktop. When the oven is on, warm air is released through the vent. This venting is necessary for proper air circulation in the oven and good baking results. DO NOT BLOCK OVEN VENT. Never close off the openings with aluminium foil or any other material. CAUTION Some models are equipped with a blower which runs in baking and self-cleaning mode to keep all internal components at a cool temperature.
