If you don’t know how to do this, contact an electrician. Do not remove the kick panel or the back panel. Due to electrical wires behind it, both panels should only be removed by a qualified technician.
SAFETY & WARNINGS EXPLOSION HAZARD If you smell gas, do not use the appliance. Open a window or door to let the gas escape, then follow the instructions on the inside front cover of this manual. Do not use water on grease fires. A violent steam explosion may result. Turn all burners off, then smother fire or flame with a dry chemical or foam-type extinguisher.

SAFETY AND WARNINGS POISONING HAZARD Never cover any slots, holes or passages in the oven bottom or cover an entire rack or the oven floor 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. Clean the appliance with caution. If a wet sponge or cloth is used to wipe spills on a hot cooking area, be careful to avoid steam burn.

CONNECT RANGE TO GAS SUPPLY 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.
CONNECT RANGE TO GAS SUPPLY 1. Install male 1/2” or 3/4” (3/4” refers to 48-inch gas range) flare union adapter to the NPT internal thread of the manual shut-off valve, taking care to secure the shut-off valve to keep it from turning. 2. The gas supply pressure for checking the regulator setting is 6 in.w.c. (Nature Gas and 11 inch.w.c. (LP gas) connect flexible gas line connector to the regulator on the range. Position range to permit connection at the shut-off valve. 3.
COOK TOP SAFETY GUIDELINES FIRST USE Conditioning the oven Conditioning will burn off any manufacturing residues and ensure that you get the best results right from the start. Follow these steps to condition your new stove’s oven: 1. Insert all the shelves. See ‘Positioning the shelves’ for instructions. 2. Turn on the ventilation hood above your range on high. 3. Heat the empty oven at the highest temperature for: a. 30 minutes using BAKE b. 30 minutes using BROIL (some ovens only). 4.
COOK TOP SAFETY GUIDELINES Keep handles out of the way. Turn handles so that they don’t extend over the edge of the range or on a burner that is on. Take care when deep-frying. Oil or fat can overheat very quickly, particularly on a high setting. Make sure that all burner parts are properly in place. Incorrectly or incompletely assembled burners may produce dangerous flames. See ‘Replacing the burner parts’ in ‘Care and cleaning’.
COOK TOP SAFETY GUIDELINES NOTE: When one burner is turned to the “HI” position, the burner igniters will park. Do not attempt to disassemble or clean around any burner while another burner is on. Do not touch any burner cap, burner base, or igniter while the igniters are sparking. SIMMER AND BOIL A smaller flame will give the best simmer results.
COOK TOP SAFETY GUIDELINES OVEN BURNER USE To light the oven burner, push and turn the appropriate control knob counter clockwise 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 clockwise to the broil position.
COOK TOP SAFETY GUIDELINES Do not place water, ice, or any dish or tray directly on the oven floor, as this will irreversibly damage the enamel. Do not cover the slotted grid of the broil/roast pan with aluminum foil. This will catch the grease and could cause fire. Do not use plastic wrap or wax paper in the oven. For food safety reasons, do not leave food in the oven for longer than two hours before and after cooking or defrosting. This is to avoid contamination by organisms which may causefood poisoning.
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 CONVECTION ROAST For best results use the broiler pan. The pan is used to catch grease spills and has a cover to prevent grease splatter. The convection fan circulates heated air over 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 in order to elevate the meat on a metal roasting rack.
BROILER FUNCTION 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. This is to prevent the control panel from overheating and prevents melted knobs.
BROILER FUNCTION 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 broilerpan 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 FUNCTION FOR THE MODELS WITH GRIDDLE Before Using the Griddle 1. Clean the griddle thoroughly with warm, soapy water to remove dust or any protectivecoating. 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.
