department.
Installationand service must be performedbya qualified
installer, service agency or the gas supplier.
WARNING
!
To avoid personal injury, do not sit, stand or lean on oven
doororovendrawer.
WARNING
!
To avoid risk of electrical shock, personal injury, or death,
makesureyouroven has been properly grounded and

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
SURFACE COOKING UNITS
1. UseProperPan Size—Select utensils having flat
bottomslarge enough to cover the surface burner
flame. The use of undersized utensils will expose a
portion of the burner flame to direct contact and may
resultinignition of clothing. Proper relationship of
utensiltoburnerwill also improve efficiency.
2. NeverLeave SurfaceBurnersUnattended—Boilover
causes smoking and greasy spillovers that may
ignite.
3. ProtectiveLiners—Donotuse aluminum foil to line
oven bottom except as suggested in the manual.
Improper installation of these liners may result in a
risk of electrical shock, or fire.
4. GlazedCooking Utensils—Onlycertain types of
glass, ceramic, earthware, or other glazed utensils
aresuitable for rangetop service without breakingdue
tosuddenchangeintemperature.
5. UtensilHandles Should be TurnedInwardandNot
ExtendOver Adjacent Surface Burners—Toreduce
the risk of burns, ignition of flammable materials, and
spillage due to unintentional contact with the utensil,
the handle of a utensil should be positioned so that it
isturnedinward,and does not extend over adjacent
surfaceunits.
6. Cleanrangetopwithcaution.To avoid steam burns,
do not use a wet sponge or cloth to wipe up spill on a
hotcookingarea.
7. Donotplace aluminum foil or food packaged in
aluminum foil directly on the flame.
Delayed Ignition
Surface Burners
Burnershould ignite within 4 seconds. If burnerdoes not
ignite within 4 seconds turn control knob to OFF position
andfollow directions in “Cleaning Surface Burners” and
“BeforeCalling for Service” section. Try burneragain.If
burner still does not ignite in 4 seconds, contact an
authorizedservicer.
Bake and Broil Burner Flame
Allownomorethan40–60secondsbeforeburnerignites
and heat is felt. To check for heat, open oven door to first
stopand place hand over oven door.If heat is not felt, turn
temperatureknobto OFF position.Ifburnerrepeatedly
failsto ignite, contact an authorized servicer.
ALL APPLIANCES
1. ProperInstallation—Be sure your appliance is
properlyinstalled and grounded by a qualified
technician.
2. NeverUse Appliance for Warming or Heating the
Room.
3. Do NotLeave Children Alone—Children should not be
aloneorunattendedintheareawheretheappliance
is in use. They should never be allowed to sit or stand
on any part of the appliance.
4. WearProtective Apparel—Loose fitting orhanging
garmentsshould never be worn while usingappliance.
5. UserServicing—Do not repair or replace any part of
theapplianceunless specifically recommended in the
manual.Allotherservicingshouldbereferredto a
qualifiedtechnician.
6. StorageinoronAppliance—Flammablematerials
shouldnot be stored in oven or nearsurface units.
7. DoNotUse Water on Grease Fires—Smother fire or
flame,or use dry chemical or foam-type extinguisher.
8. UseOnlyDry Potholders—Moist or damp potholders
on hot surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do
not let potholder touch burner. Do not use a towel or
other bulky cloth.
OVEN
1. UseCareWhenOpening Door—Let hot air or steam
escapebefore removingorreplacing food.
2. DoNot Heat UnopenedFoodContainers—Build-up of
pressure may cause container to burst and result in
injury.
3. ProtectiveLiners—Donotuse aluminum foil to line
ovenbottom.Improperinstallation of these liners can
causefire.
4. KeepOvenVentsDucts Unobstructed.
5. PlacementofOvenRacks—Alwaysplaceovenracks
in desired location while oven is cool.
6. Donottouchthe interior surfaces of the oven during
or immediately after use. Do not let clothing or other
flammablematerialcontactthe bake and broil burner.
7. Otherareasofthe oven can become hot enough to
causeburns,suchas vent openings, oven door, and
ovenracks.

5
VENTILATION HOOD
1. CleanVentilationHood Frequently—Grease should
not be allowed to accumulate on hood or filter.
2. Whenflamingfoods under hood, turn fan off. The fan,
if operating, may spread the flame.
In Case of Fire
Fires can occur as a result of over cooking or excessive
grease. Though a fire is unlikely, if one occurs, proceed
as follows:
Surface Burner Fire
1. Smotherthe fire with a nonflammable lid or baking
soda, or use a Class ABC or BC extinguisher. Not
water. Not salt. Not flour.
2. As soon as it is safe to do so, turn the surface
burnercontrols to OFF .
• As an added precaution, turn off gas supply.
Oven Fires
1. If you see smoke from oven, do not open oven door.
2. Turn oven control to OFF .
3. As an added precaution, turn off gas supply.
4. Turnonventto remove smoke.
5. Allow food or grease to burn itself out in oven.
6. If smoke and fire persist, call fire department.
7. If there is any damage to components, call repair
service before using range.
Precautions
• Do not cook food directly on rangetop surface, always
usecookware.
• Do not mix household cleaning products. Chemical
mixturesmay interact with objectionableor even
hazardousresults.
• Do not put plastic items on warm cooking areas. They
may stick and melt.
• Do not slide rough metal objects across rangetop
surface. Scratching or metal marking can result.
• Do not use damp sponge or dishcloth to clean rangetop
when range is hot. Steam from sponge or dishcloth can
burn.
• Do not leave fat heating unless you remain nearby. Fat
can ignite if overheated by spilling onto hot surfaces.
• Do not allow pots to boil dry as this can cause damage
to cooking surface and pan.
• Do not use rangetop surface as a cutting board.
Installation
Packing Material
Remove protective packing material from range. Tape
residue can be cleaned with a soft cloth and alcohol.
Range Location
Choose a location based on following factors.
• Draftscausedbyhome heating and air conditioning and
opendoorsorwindowscandisruptventilationair
pattern.Rangeshouldnotbeinstallednearwindows or
doors.
• Makesurethereis adequate space for proper
installation.
• Carefullyread all instructions before beginning
installation.
Cabinet Opening
WARNING
!
To avoid risk ofburns or fire by reachingover elements,
cabinetstorage space located above range should be
avoided.If cabinet storage is provided,installa range
hood that projects horizontally a minimum of 5 inches
beyond the cabinet bottom to reduce the risk.

• Flame size should match the size of the pan. Do not
allow the flame to extend up the sides of the pan.
Flames that extend up the sides of the pan can ignite
clothing, make handle hot, or burn.

Use Proper Pan Size
• Use care when using glazed cooking utensils. Some
glass,earthenware,orother glazed utensils break due
tosudden temperature changes.
• Select utensils without broken or loose handles.
• Handlesshould not be heavy enough to tiltpan.
• Do not use stove top grills on your range. Stove top
grills cause incomplete combustion and can create
levelsof carbon monoxideaboveallowable standards.
• Do not use a wok with a ring stand. Use flat bottom
wok.

To avoid pan wobbling,use a pan with a flat bottom.
Determine if pan has a flat bottom.
1. Rotate a ruler along bottom of pan. If pan is not flat,
gaps between bottom of pan and edge of ruler occur.
2. A small groove or mark on a pan does not effect
cooking times. However, if a pan has a gap, formed
rings, or an uneven bottom, it does not cook
efficiently and in some cases may not boil liquid.
