IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION. READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING. WARNING If the information in this manual is not followed exactly, a fire or explosion may result, causing property damage, personal injury or death. - Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this or any other appliance. - WHAT TO DO IF YOU SMELL GAS Do not try to light any appliance. Do not touch any electrical switch; do not use any phone in your building.
WARNING GENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS 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. Use this appliance for its intended purpose as described in this owners manual. Have your range installed and properly grounded by a qualified installer in accordance with the provided installation instructions. Any adjustment and service should be performed only by qualified gas range installers or service technicians.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION. READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING. WARNING KEEP FLAMMABLE MATERIALS AWAY FROM THE RANGE Do not store or use flammable materials in an oven or near the cooktop, including paper, plastic, pot holders, linens, wall coverings, curtains, drapes and gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids. Never wear loose-fitting or hanging garments while using the appliance. Avoid storing commonly used items in cabinets above the range and be careful when reaching over the range.
WARNING OVEN SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS WARNING NEVER cover any slots, holes, or passages in the oven bottom or cover an entire rack with materials such as aluminum foil. Doing so blocks airflow through the oven and may cause carbon monoxide poisoning. Aluminum foil linings may also trap heat, causing a fire hazard. Stand away from the range when opening the oven door. Hot air or steam which escapes can cause burns to hands, face and/or eyes. Keep the oven free from grease buildup. Grease in the oven may ignite.
Using the gas surface burners. Throughout this manual, features and appearance may vary from your model. Before Lighting a Gas Burner Make sure all burners are in place. Make sure all grates on the range are properly placed before using any burner. After Lighting a Gas Burner Do not operate the burner for an extended period of time without cookware on the grate. The finish on the grate may chip without cookware to absorb the heat.
Using the oven. Throughout this manual, features and appearance may vary from your model. Oven Control Your oven is controlled by an OVEN TEMP knob. It can take up to 90 seconds before the flame comes on. After the oven reaches the selected temperature, the oven burner maintains the selected temperature. Power Outage The oven or broiler cannot be lit during a power failure. If the oven is in use when a power failure occurs, the oven burner shuts off.
Using the oven. Upper Oven Vent Plastic items on the cooktop may melt if left too close to the vent. Vent appearance and location vary. Your oven is vented through ducts at the rear of the range. Do not block these ducts when cooking in the oven—it is important that the flow of hot air from the oven and fresh air to the oven burner be uninterrupted. Avoid touching the vent openings or nearby surfaces during oven or broiler operation—they may become hot.
Using the oven for baking. To avoid possible burns, place the shelves in the desired position before you turn the oven on. How to Set the Oven For Baking 1. Close the oven door. Then turn the OVEN TEMP knob to the desired temperature. 2. Check the food for doneness at the minimum time on the recipe. Cook longer if necessary. Turn the OVEN TEMP knob to OFF and remove the food. Oven Shelves Place most foods in the middle of the oven.
Using the oven for baking. Cookies Flat cookie sheets (without sides) produce better-looking cookies. Cookies baked in a jelly roll pan (short sides all around) may have darker edges and pale or light browning may occur. Do not use a cookie sheet so large that it touches the walls or the door of the oven. Never entirely cover a shelf with a large cookie sheet. For best results, use only one cookie sheet in the oven at a time.
Using the oven for roasting. Roasting is cooking by dry heat. Tender meat or poultry can be roasted uncovered in your oven. Roasting temperatures, which should be low and steady, keep spattering to a minimum. Roasting is really a baking procedure used for meats. Roasting is easy just follow these directions: How to Set the Oven For Roasting Place the shelf in the A or B position. 1. Place the shelf in the A or B position. No preheating is necessary. 2. Check the weight of the meat.
Using the oven for broiling. How to Set the Broiler Compartment Broiling is cooking food by direct heat from above the food. Most fish and tender cuts of meat can be broiled. Follow these directions to keep spattering and smoking to a minimum. 3. If meat has fat or gristle around the edge, cut vertical slashes through both about 2" apart. If desired, the fat may be trimmed, leaving a layer about 1/8" thick. Your range has a compartment below the oven for broiling. 4.
Using the oven for broiling. Aluminum Foil You can use aluminum foil to line your broiler pan and broiler grid. However, you must mold the foil tightly to the grid and cut slits in it just like the grid. Broiling Compartment Guide Suggestions Both the oven and broiler compartment doors must be closed during broiling. Always use the broiler pan and grid that comes with your range. It is designed to minimize smoking and spattering by trapping juices in the shielded lower part of the pan.
Care and cleaning of the range. Be sure electrical power is off and all surfaces are cool before cleaning any part of the range. WARNING If your range is removed for cleaning, servicing or any reason, be sure the anti-tip device is reengaged properly when the range is replaced. Failure to take this precaution could result in tipping of the range and cause injury. To check if the bracket is installed and engaged properly, carefully tip the range forward. The bracket should stop the range within 4 inches.
Standard Twin Burner Assemblies (on some models) Grate Drip pan (if so equipped) Surface burner CAUTION: Do not operate the cooktop without all burner parts, drip pans (if so equipped) and grates in place. For cleaning information on sealed burners, see section below. Sealed burner cooktops do not lift up. On models with standard twin burners, the cooktop lifts up for easy access. Turn all controls OFF before removing burner parts and drip pans (if so equipped).
Care and cleaning of the range. Oven Air Vents Never block the vents (air openings) of the range. They provide the air inlet and outlet that are necessary for the range to operate properly with correct combustion. Air openings are located at the rear of the cooktop, at the top and bottom of the oven door, and at the bottom of the range. Vent appearance and location vary.
Removable Oven Bottom First remove the shelves from the oven. The oven bottom lifts from the front. Knurled screw (on some models) To remove: 1. On models so equipped, remove the knurled screw in the front of the oven bottom. 2. Grasp each side of the oven bottom and push it back. 3. Lift the front up and pull it out of the oven. To replace: 1. Grasp each side of the oven bottom and guide its rear tabs into the slots in the back of the oven. 2.
Care and cleaning of the range. Broiler Pan and Grid After broiling, remove the broiler pan from the oven. Remove the grid from the pan. Carefully pour out grease from the pan into a proper container. Wash and rinse the broiler pan and grid in hot water with a soap-filled or plastic scouring pad. If food has burned on, sprinkle the grid with detergent while hot and cover with wet paper towels or a dishcloth. Soaking the pan will remove burned on foods.
Porcelain Oven Interior With proper care, the porcelain enamel finish on the inside of the oven will stay newlooking for years. Let the range cool before cleaning. We recommend that you wear rubber gloves when cleaning the range. Soap and water will normally do the job. Heavy spattering or spillovers may require cleaning with a mild abrasive cleaner. Soapy, wet metal pads may also be used.
