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 appliance. Do not use the range top or oven as a food or kitchen item storage area.
Never block or cover any slots, holes or passages located anywhere inside or outside the range. These structures are important to safe
operation of the appliance and doing so may block airow through the oven or cooktop possibly causing carbon monoxide poisoning
or re. Routinely keep all slots free of grease and other materials.
This appliance has been tested for safe performance using conventional cookware. DO NOT USE any device or accessory not
specically recommended in this guide. DO NOT USE pan or pan covers on surface units, grills or griddles. These devices can create
serious safety hazards including personal injury, create performance problems and may damage the appliance. Do not store or use
corrosive chemicals, vapors, ammables or non-food products in or near this appliance. It is specically designed for use when heating
or cooking food. The use of corrosive chemicals while heating or cleaning could result in personal injury or damage to the appliance.
Purchase a kitchen re extinguisher for your home and store it in close proximity to your appliance. Should an uncontrolled re occur,
never use water on grease res. Never pick up a aming pan. The oven door interior and exterior, especially the glass can get hot
during operation. Do not touch the glass – use the door handle to open or close the range door.
The push-to-turn gas valve knobs on the appliance are designed to be child-safe, however, they are not a guarantee of operation.

Never wear loose tting or long sleeved apparel while cooking. Never wear garments made of ammable materials. Clothing may
ignite or catch utensil handles. DO NOT drape towels or other items on door handles. These items could ignite and cause burns.
If your product is a range or oven ALWAYS place oven racks in the desired position before you start cooking and while the oven is
cool. Always use dry and sturdy pot-holders to carefully slide the oven rack out to add or remove food.
If your product is a range or cooktop located near a window, be certain window curtains or other ammable objects do not blow over
or near the range burners; the items could catch on re.
If operating the surface burners, the ame must be adjusted to just cover the bottom of the pan or pot. Excessive high ame settings
may cause scorching of the nearby counter-top surface, as well as the outside of the utensil and handles.
ALWAYS turn the appliance o at the end of cooking.
When dehydrating food items, periodically check during the process to ensure that they do not catch on re.
If you are “aming” liquor or other spirits under an exhaust, TURN THE FAN OFF. The draft from the fan could cause the ames to
spread out of control.
Care must be exercised if your appliance is equipped with a high-shelf. During heavy or continuous use, this shelf may be come hot. Do
not place combustible materials or plastic items on the shelf.
Turn the knobs to the OFF position prior to removing them from the valve stems for cleaning.

with the LP rangetop is required at the LP (Propane) source to
limit pressure to a maximum of 14" W.C.
»Check that all gas connections are properly sealed with a
suitable gas joint compound.
TEST ALL JOINTS WITH A SOAPY WATER SOLUTION
BEFORE LIGHTING THE BURNERS
»Turn ON the manual gas valve at the inlet side of the gas supply
line.
»Check for gas leaks at the exible coupling or gas connector
tting using a solution of one part soap and three parts water.
»Sparingly spray or brush the soapy solution at the gas ttings;
active bubbling indicates location of gas leak.
»If a gas leak is detected turn o the manual gas valve at the inlet
side of the gas line. Call your certied service technician.

BEFORE USING THE NEW COOKTOP
»Before using the cooktop for the rst time, wash the outside
area with soap and water to remove any shipping and factory
residue.
»The burner grates are designed in sections and are easy to
remove and clean. They are made of cast iron with a porcelain
coating and will remain hot after the burner is turned o
creating a residual heat for continued cooking. Use caution when
handling.
»Your new professional Range is equipped with burners that are
similar to those used in restaurants. The burner heads are large
and designed to ensure even heat distribution for better cooking.
They must be in place and properly seated before lighting.
»The Range must not be operated without the burner heads.
»There are no continuously burning pilot lights. An electronic
spark ignition system is used to light the burner. If the ame
should go out from a boil-over or a strong draft, the burner will
automatically reignite.

OPERATION OF THE BURNERS
1. Press in on the knob that corresponds to the burner that you
would like to light. Use the front panel graphic to conrm your
selection until you become familiar with the range. Turn the
knob counter-clockwise to the “American Flame” icon located
on the knob – this is the light position of the burner valve.
2. The igniter for all the surface burners will begin sparking –
however, gas will ow to only the selected burner.
3. After the burner lights, the igniter clicking will stop – indicating
that the ame sensing and re-ignition system is active on the
selected burner.
4. Rotate the knob to any ame setting that you desire between
MAX and SIMMER.
The surface burners are rated at dierent power levels:

When you are using the surface burners, select the burner power
and location depending on the heating or cooking function you
would like to perform.
A normal ame is blue in color and steady. Foreign materials in
the kitchen air or the gas line, especially in new construction
installations, may cause some orange color bursts during initial
operation. This will disappear with continued use. Small yellow tips
on the ends of ames are normal when using LP gas.
If the ames look odd, (too small, too large, lazy or drifting, uneven
around the burner circle, etc.), check to see that the burner head
is seated correctly on the burner base. Do this when the burner is
cold by gently rocking the burner head or rotating the head from
side to side. If it is correctly seated, it will nest in detents, in the
case of the sealed burners, or on the corresponding pin/hole for
open burners. If this does not correct the problem, turn to the
Troubleshooting section of this manual.
AUTO RE-IGNITION
The surface burners are equipped with a special ignition and
re-ignition system that senses the presence of ame and re-ignites
the burner should the ame disappear while gas is still owing to
the burner.
Strong drafts, spills and general grime inuence the operation of
the automatic re-ignition system – a clean system will generally
function better than a dirty system. Periodically, remove any
materials or grime that might build up on the high voltage spark
electrode – using a toothbrush or other non-metallic cleaning
utensil.
OPERATING YOUR RANGETOP
COOKWARE RECOMMENDATIONS
To avoid the risk of serious injury, damage to the range or
cookware, please observe the following guidelines.
Bakeware, such as large casserole pans, cookie sheets, etc.,
should never be used on the cooktop.
Placement of large stock pots should be staggered when used
on the cooktop.
Select the base diameter of the pot to match the diameter
of the ame. The diameter of the ame and the diameter
of the pan bottom should match or be slightly smaller. Too
large or too small pots on a burner will compromise cooking
performance.
Do not place food packaged or wrapped in aluminum foil
directly on the burner grate above the burner. Aluminum foil
can melt during cooking.
Be careful to not let plastic, paper or cloth come in contact
with a hot burner grate. These materials can catch re or melt.
Never let a pan boil dry – and if it occurs remember it can be
extremely hot – and very dangerous. If this should occur, turn
o the burner immediately. Wait a while, until the pot cools
down enough to handle – this could be several minutes, but
could save you from burns or other serious injury.
The pan bottom should be at, the heavier the better – and
well balanced on the cooktop grate – sitting at without
rocking – preferably with tight tting lids. Try not to slide the
pot across the grates – while it is very handy to do so – you
may end up scratching the pot or the grate.
Always be careful when using high ames, as in wok cooking,
as they may contact ammable materials or make the handles
of the wok very hot. Use the wok ring (optional) to stabilize
the wok.

GRILL OPERATION (GR Models Only)
Make sure there is nothing on the grilling rack prior to igniting the
grill. Push the knob in and turn it counter-clockwise to the HIGH
position. The power ON indicator light will glow indicating the
grill valve is on. The grill is equipped with a ame-sensing ignition
system – that automatically detects the presence of ame on the
grill burner – and relights it in the event it goes out. Adjust the
ame to the desired height.
After cooking, allow the module to cool completely and remove
the drip tray slowly, discarding grease and other food particles.
The grill grate may be removed – exposing the radiants – which
may be lifted out and placed in the dishwasher along with the drip
tray for cleaning. The grate is porcelain coated and may be washed
with hot soapy water and a soft brush.
BEST COOKING RESULTS WHEN USING YOUR GRILL
The intense radiant heat from the grill vaporizes the surface of
your food, locking in avor.
»Add any barbecue sauces during the last few minutes of
cooking, long enough to caramelize the sauce.
»For best results, turn food with tongs or a at spatula to
avoid piercing meat or poultry.
»Turn meat once when juices rise to the surface. Turning
meat more than once results in the loss of meat juices.
»Never squeeze juices out of meat.
»Before cooking steaks or chops, trim most of the outside
fat to prevent excessive are-ups. Slash into the edges of
steaks or chops to keep meat at on the grill.
»Fish should be cooked at the lowest setting eight to ten
minutes for every inch of thickness, measured at the
thickest part of the sh.

Allow grill to cool completely before cleaning. Remove the grates, grease collector and stainless steel
Radiant and place in hot soapy water. Clean the grill with hot soapy water and a soft grill brush.
Do not apply water or cleaner directly on the infrared burner.
OPERATING YOUR RANGE
USING YOUR GRILL
»Before starting to cook, check that Stainless Steel radiant, grease
collector and grill grates are in place.
»This gas grill may cook slightly faster, so adjust preheat and grilling
times to allow for less cooking time than expected.
»Push in the control knob and turn to ON. Rotate the knob
counter-clockwise. You will hear a pung sound as the burner
ignites and a blue light will indicate that the burner is lit.
RANGETOP-BURNER OPERATION (Sealed and Open Burners)
Make sure there is nothing on the burners and/or grates prior to igniting the burners. Push the knob in, and turn it counter-clockwise
to the HIGH position. Adjust the ame to the desired height. The burners are equipped with a ame-sensing ignition system that
automatically detects the presence of ame on the burners, and relights in the event the ame goes out.
»Turn on the exhaust fan above your rangetop.
»Preheat the grill for two to ve minutes. The longer
preheat time ensures darker grill marks on the food.
»Fatty foods or any excess fat used to marinate can cause
minor are-ups or pus of ame. A small amount of
are-up is normal.

SEASON THE GRIDDLE:
1. The griddle has a factory applied coating that must be washed
o prior to use. (See Cleaning the Griddle)
2. Pour 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil (not corn or olive oil) and
rub on the entire surface of the griddle using a rough towel.
3. Push the griddle control knob in and turn to a medium setting
(350°F or 177°C).
4. Heat until griddle begins to smoke. Turn o griddle and allow it
to cool.
5. Returning to step 2, repeat the process.
When you are done “griddling” and while the griddle surface is still
warm, remove any left-on food particles. Allow the griddle to cool
and scrape o any excess grease from the surface with a exible
nylon spatula. Pull the spatula forward toward the front and push
any material into the front grease receiver.
To clean the griddle, moisten a soft scrub cloth, adding a drop of
mild degreaser dish soap to create a soapy lather – and wipe the
griddle from left to right. Clean in rows from the top to the bot-
tom, taking time to wash the entire griddle surface, including the
sides. When you are done, rinse away all the soap from the cloth
and wipe any suds from the griddle surface. Remove all remaining
moisture from the griddle with the second, clean soft cloth. Wipe
the area in rows again as well as the sides and front. You may have
to repeat action to ensure the griddle plate is dry and sparkling.
CLEANING THE GRIDDLE:
»The griddle is not to be removed for cleaning.
»Using a at plastic spatula gently remove burned on food.
»Clean the griddle thoroughly with hot soapy water and a rough
towel.
»The griddle drip pan and grease collector should be cleaned
after each use with hot soapy water and a sponge.
»It is normal for the griddle to darken with age and use, similar
to commercial cooking equipment.
CARE AND CLEANING
It is always easier to clean as you go – and while some evenings
you’d rather sit down with a good book instead of a Scrubby,
keeping your rangetop and oven in a ready to go state for the next
meal makes everything a little more tolerable.
When cleaning the rangetop:
»Use the mildest procedure that will do the job eciently and
eectively – and since some cleaners are harsher than others, it
is best to try them on a small, inconspicuous area rst.
»Use only clean, soft cloths, sponges, paper towels, plastic
brushes, non-metal soap pads for cleaning and scouring.
»When cleaning the oven door, control panel, top curved
section (called the bull nose) or the at top area – always
pretend it is made of wood – and rub the nish in the direction
of the grain. This is the most eective cleaning direction, to
prevent marring the surface.
»Any part of this appliance can be cleaned with hot, sudsy water.
When rinsing is required, rinse thoroughly.
»Always wipe dry immediately to reduce the appearance of
water marks.
»
The cooktop is brushed stainless steel with polished aluminum
burner heads. The burner caps are steel coated porcelain.
»Do not use abrasives on stainless steel. Use towels, sponges or
soft plastic scrubbers. RUB ONLY WITH THE “GRAIN.”
»Do not use steel wool pads or green rough Scrubby’s.
»Wash all cooking surfaces with hot water and dish detergent
such as Simple Green, Ivory Liquid, or Joy.
»Rub stubborn spots with baking soda or liquid cleaner such as
Windex All Surface Cleaner or 409.
»Grates and burner caps can be soaked in hot soapy water. Mild
scouring cleaners can be used, such as Bon Ami or Cameo on
grates and burner caps.

GRIDDLE OPERATION (GD Models Only)
The built-in griddle is made of polished steel to
provide a smooth cooking surface. A griddle drip
pan is included.
Always preheat the griddle on the low setting,
at least ten minutes before cooking. The griddle
burner is equipped with a hot surface igniter and
gas safety valve system.
TO START COOKING:
»Push knob in and turn the knob clockwise to the MAX position.
Preheat griddle for two to three minutes and turn knob to a medium
or low cook setting.
»The blue indicator light comes on and stays on until the desired
setting is reached and then turns o and on with the heating cycle.
»For best results, add a small amount of butter, oil, or a cooking spray
to the griddle surface. Fatty meats like bacon and sausage do not
need extra fat.
The temperature settings
are meant as a guide.
You may need to adjust
the settings according
to your peronal cooking
preferences.

CARE AND CLEANING RECOMMENDATIONS
PART / MATERIAL CLEANING SUGGESTIONS BEING CAREFUL
Main Top/
Porcelain Enamel
Soft Scrub may be used here. With a cool or slightly warm
surface, use a damp sponge or cloth as recommended by the
manufacturer.
Since the surface is glass (it can be scratched by certain
materials) try to rub gently in small circles to allow time and
chemical reactions to take place.
Sealed Burners
(Cuisine)
Caps and burner heads can be removed for cleaning using
hot sudsy water. A sti nylon bristle tooth brush can be used
to clean burner port openings.
Remember to dry out the ports (try to blow air through them
if you like). Water clogged ports burn with erratic ames and
could be dangerous.
Open Burners
(Performer)
The cast iron burner heads are heavy and porcelain coated.
If they are dirty, remove any large debris and gently scrub
under hot, soapy water.
Like the sealed burners, remember to dry out the ports (try to
blow air through them if you like). Water clogged ports burn
with erratic ames and could be dangerous.
Control Knobs/
Powder Paint
Use dry hands to pull o the knobs; hot sudsy water works
best here… …with a sponge to avoid scratching
Chrome Knob Bezels Hot soapy water works well here, with a sponge or soft
cloth.
As with any round feature that meets the stainless steel grain,
be careful to clean the bezels in a circular motion – and not
contact the stainless steel control panel.
Exterior Finish
Island Trim
Use hot soapy water, Fantastic, Formula 409, rinse and dry
immediately. For hard water spots, try household vinegar or
CLR. If there is any heat discoloration, consider using Zud,
Wright’s All Purpose Polish or Blue Away.
Rub lightly in the direction of the grain of the stainless steel.
Salt (sodium chloride), chlorine or chlorine compounds in
some cleaners are corrosive to stainless steel.
Grates/Porcelain
Enamel on Cast Iron
Hot water and detergent with scrubby, or soap lled steel
wool pad for really tough stains will work.
Remove sugar or acid based spills, they tend to attack the
enamel. Remember the grates are heavy, use care when lifting
and replacing.
Griddle Moisten a soft scrub cloth, adding a drop of mild dish soap to
create a soapy lather – and wipe the griddle from left to right.
Use plastic spatulas and spoons when working the griddle. See
more tips in the discussion on griddle operation above.
