GAS SUPPLY REQUIREMENT ELECTRICAL GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS WARNING This indoor gas cooking appliance is equipped with a three-prong (grounding) plug for your protection against shock hazard and should be plugged directly into a properly grounded threepronged receptacle. Where a standard two-prong wall receptacle is encountered, it is the responsibility and obligation of the customer to have it replaced with a properly grounded three-prong wall receptacle.
GAS SUPPLY REQUIREMENT The use of cabinets for storage above the appliance may result in a potential burn hazard. Combustible items may ignite; metallic items may become hot and cause burns. If a cabinet storage is to be provided, the risk can be reduced by installing a range hood that projects horizontally a minimum of 5" (12.7cm) beyond the bottom of the cabinets. CONNECT RANGE TO GAS SUPPLY 1.
FIRST USE FIRST USE Before you start 1. Make sure that the anti-tip of the range has been properly installed. 2. Find the model and serial numbers on the CSA label. Note these numbers down for future reference in the space provided in section “Warranty and service”. 3. Read this guide, taking special note of the “Safety and warnings” section. 4. Remove all the packaging from the oven(s) and cooktop. Recycle items that you can.
FIRST USE POSITIONING THE SHELVES Both the sides panel and shelves have safety stops to keep them from sliding out of the oven when pulled forward. Shelves also have a stop that prevents the shelves from hitting the back of the oven.
FIRST USE THIS IS HOW TO PROPERLY POSITION THE SHELVES: Hold the front of both sides of the shelf firmly to keep it in horizontal position. Put the shelf on the slot horizontally. Lift the front about 15 degrees upward until the tag of the shelf clears the safety stop of the side rack. Then lower the shelf horizontally and slide all the way into the oven. Other shelves can be installed this way.
COOKTOP SAFETY GUIDELINES COOKTOP SAFETY GUIDELINES There are dual ring burners have the same low turn-down setting (SIM) for gentle simmering (680 BTU/hr.). Use the SIM setting for melting chocolate and butter, cooking rice and delicate sauces, simmering soups and stews, and keeping cooked food hot. • Never leave the cooktop unattended when in use. Boil over causes smoking and greasy spills that may ignite. • Never allow flames to extend beyond cookware or curl up on sides.
COOKTOP SAFETY GUIDELINES SURFACE BURNER IGNITION To light the top burners, push and turn the appropriate control knob counter clockwise to the “HI” position. You will hear a clicking noise – the sound of the electric spark igniting the burner. Once burner ignition has been achieved, turn the burner control knob to adjust the desired heat setting. CAUTION When one burner is turned to the “HI” position, the burner igniters will spark.
COOKTOP SAFETY GUIDELINES FLAME SIZE When you select the flame size, watch the flame when you turn the knob. Any flame larger than the bottom of the cookware is wasted. The flame should be steady and blue in color. Foreign material in the gas line may cause an orange flame during initial operation. Approximate 1 1/2” Flame Height POWER FAILURE If the gas does not ignite within four seconds, turn off the valve and allow at least five minutes for any gas to dissipate. Repeat the lighting procedure.
COOKTOP SAFETY GUIDELINES BURNER GRATES The grates must be properly positioned before cooking. Improper installation of the grates may result in scratching of the cooktop and/or poor combustion.
COOKTOP SAFETY GUIDELINES To light the oven burner, push and turn the appropriate control knob counter clockwise to the (150 F~500 F) position. You will hear a clicking noise, which is the sound of the electric spark igniting the burner. Once burner ignition has been achieved, turn the burner control knob to adjust the desired heat setting. BROIL BURNER USE To light the broiler burner, push and turn the appropriate control knob counterclockwise to the broil position.
COOKTOP SAFETY GUIDELINES OVEN COOKING SAFETY GUIDELINES Do not block the ducts on the rear of the range when cooking in the oven. It is important that the flow of moist warm air from the oven and fresh air into the oven burner never be interrupted. Avoid touching the vent opening or nearby surfaces during oven or broiler operation because they are hot. Do not pace plastics, paper or other items that could melt or burn near the oven vent. • • Use all the oven modes with the oven door closed.
OVEN FUNCTION OVEN FUNCTION NATURAL AIRFLOW BAKE Natural airflow bake occurs when heat is transferred into the oven from the bake burners in the bottom of the oven cavity. Heat is then circulated by natural airflow. This is a traditional bake setting. CONVECTION BAKE The oven convection fan circulates and distributes the heat in the oven for faster even cooking. Convection cooking allows you to bake more items on multiple racks. To bake using the convection fan: 1.
OVEN FUNCTION The convection fan circulates heated air over and the around the food being roasted, sealing juices quickly for a moist and tender product while, at the same time, creating a rich golden brown exterior. Use the broil/roast pan and slotted grid supplied with the range when roasting to elevate the meat on a metal roasting rack. This allows hot air to circulate around the meat, browning it more evenly like a rotisserie.
GRIDDLE OPERATION Broiler Operation CAUTION Door must be closed during broiler operation. Broiling is a method of cooking tender cuts of meat directly under the infrared broiler in the oven. Broiling in the oven is accomplished with the oven door closed. It is normal and necessary for some smoke to be present to give the food a broiled flavor. If you open the oven door to check the food, have it open for as short a time as possible.
GRIDDLE OPERATION To set the oven to Broil: 1. Place the broiler pan insert on the broiler pan. Then place the food on the broiler pan insert. 2. Arrange the interior oven rack and place the broiler pan on the rack. Be sure to center the broiler pan and position directly under the broil burner. If preheating the broil burner first, position the broiler pan after the broil burner is preheated. 3. Turn selector knob to Broil.
GRIDDLE OPERATION 3. When the griddle is preheated to the desired temperature, the indicator light will turn on. 4. Butter or cooking oil can may be added. CAUTION • The surface of the griddle is hot after use. Please allow sufficient time for the griddle to cool prior to cleaning. • When using the appliance or the first time. The oven and broiler burners should be turned on to burn off the manufacturing oils. Turn the oven on to 450 F (230 C) for 20 to 30 minutes.
CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS Don’ts Do not use aerosol cleaners until the range has completely cooled. The propellant substance in these cleaners could catch fire in the presence of heat. Do not let soiling or grease accumulate anywhere in or on the range. This will make future cleaning more difficult and may present a fire hazard. Do not use any abrasive or harsh cleaners, cloths, scouring pads or steel wool. These will scratch your range and damage its appearance.
CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS CLEANING SIDE RACKS 1. Pre-soak any stubborn, burnt-on soiling, then clean with a solution of mild detergent and hot water and wipe dry with a microfiber cloth. 2. Alternatively, clean these in the dishwasher. CLEANING OVEN SHELVES 1. To remove stubborn or “baked-on” material, scrub with a dampened, soap-filled, non-metal, non-abrasive pad, then wipe dry. 2. Apply a chrome cleaner with a damp sponge or cloth following manufacturer’s instructions. 3. Wipe and dry.
CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS Cleaning Oven Door Gasket Avoid cleaning this part. If you need to remove large food particles off it, proceed as follows: 1. Dampen a sponge with clean hot water. 2. Gently wipe off the soiling, but do not rub. 3. Press a dry towel gently on the gasket to dry. Do not use any cleaning detergents on the gasket. The gasket is essential for a good seal. CAUTION: Do not scratch, displace, or damage it. Cleaning Stainless Steel Surfaces Do not use any cleaning product with chlorine bleach.

PROCEDURE FOR CHECKING THE DUAL BURNER CLICKING PROBLEM Step 1 Make sure the Burner Design is correct. Our current design for the burner is has the electrode on the left side (10 o’clock) and cross-over on the right side (2 o’clock). There are four parts for the dual burners. They are burner cap, flame ring base, flame ring and burner base. Step 2 Make sure the electrode is going through the hole on the flame ring and it is vertical to the surface of flame ring base.
Step 3 For the flame ring base part. make sure that the electrode will go through the hole on the 10 o’clock position. Make sure the electrode is not going through the hole next to the cross-over. Step 4 Make sure the electrode is vertical to the surface of the burner base. Please be notified that there’s a slot at the 8 o’clock position of the burner base. This slot helps to locate the burner base. Here’s the procedure to have Customer/Servicer check the condition for our current burner design.
