Other shelves can be installed this way. 10. Cooktop Safety Guidelines There are dual burners have the same low turn-down setting (SIM) for gentle simmering (620 BTU/hr.).
Cook Top Safety Guidelines Surface Burner Ignition To light the top burners, push and turn the appropriate control knob counterclockwise 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, then turn the burner control knob to adjust the desired heat setting. NOTE: When one burner is turned to the “HI” position, the burner igniters will park.
Cook Top Safety Guidelines 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. If the power fails, it is not capable of being safely placed in operation and user that no attempt should be made to operate during power failure. Cooktop To prevent the cooktop from discoloring or staining, clean cooktop after each use, and wipe up acidic or sugary spills as soon as the cooktop has cooled.
Cook Top Safety Guidelines Oven burner use To light the oven burner, push and turn the appropriate control knob counterclockwise to the (150℉~500℉) position. You will hear a clicking noise – the sound of the electric spark igniting the burner. Once burner ignition has been achieved, then 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.
Cook Top Safety Guidelines Oven cooking guidelines ✓ Do not block the ducts on the rear of the range when cooking in the oven. It is important that the flow of 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. ✓ Use all the oven modes with the oven door closed. ✓ Never use aluminum foil to cover the oven shelves or to line the floor of the oven.
Oven Function 11. Oven Function 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. Infrared Broil The broil burner is located at the top of the oven. This burner heats the metal screen until it glows. The glowing screen produces the infrared heat, searing the outside of broiled foods and sealing in juices.
Oven Function 6. Dark metal baking pans or those with a dull finish absorb heat faster than shiny pans, and are excellent for pies and breads, or anything that needs browning or a crisper crust. 7. A shiny finish may work best for foods that require lighter, delicate browning (e.g. cakes and cookies), as it reflects some heat and gives a less intense baking surface. 8. Avoid opening the oven door frequently during baking. Convection Roast For best results use the broiler pan.
Oven Function increases growth of microorganisms and detains the activity of enzymes.
Broiler Operation 12. Broiler Operation Note: 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.
Broiler 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.
Broiler Operation 13. For the models with Griddle Before Using the Griddle Before Using the Griddle 1. Clean the griddle thoroughly with warm, soapy water to remove dust or any protective coating. 2. Rinse with clean water and wipe off to dry with soft, clean, lint-free cloth. 3. A stainless-steel cover when the griddle is not being used is provided. Please note that the cover must be removed before turning the griddle on. 4. Make sure the grease tray is under the front edge of the griddle.
