where and how to turn off the gas supply and electric power to the range.
Do not install, repair, or replace any part of the range unless specifically recommended in the manual accompanying it. A
qualified service technician should perform all other service.
Do not use (install) this appliance in conjunction with a surface (countertop) ventilation system. American Range Corporation
recommends the installation of an overhead ventilation hood.
Do not connect this range to the gas supply without the supplied gas pressure regulator installed.
Before performing any type of service or installation, make sure that the gas supply and electric power to the range are turned
off.
Only use the range for cooking tasks expected of a home appliance as outlined in the manual accompanying it. This range is
not intended for commercial use.
DO NOT TOUCH THE SURFACES OF THE OVEN OR COOKTOP DURING OR IMMEDIATELY AFTER USE.
Do not leave children alone or unattended in the area around the range. Do not allow children to play with the controls, pull on
the handle, or touch other parts of the range.

Do not line the oven with aluminum foil or other materials. These items can melt or burn up during self-cleaning and cause
permanent damage to the oven.
Do not leave metal objects, such as aluminum foil, cookie sheets, etc. on the bottom of the oven. Objects left on the bottom of
the oven could damage the bake element. In addition, the objects themselves could be damaged.
The bake and broil elements are behind glass panels on the floor and ceiling of the oven chamber. Do not allow these glass
panels to become covered up by cookie sheets, aluminum foil, pots, pans, etc. Covering them could cause the heating ele-
ments to over-heat, damaging the oven.
Do not expose the knobs or trim rings to direct flame, hot utensils, or other sources of heat.
Always ensure that the light fixture lens covers are in place when using the oven. The lens covers protect the light bulbs from
breakage caused by high oven temperatures or mechanical shock.

Maintenance
Self-Cleaning Your Oven
The oven will run better and produce better baked goods when
it is clean. During self-cleaning, the oven is heated to very high
temperatures which burn off any deposits on the surfaces of the oven.
Self-cleaning eliminates the need for manual scrubbing of interior
surfaces. The self-clean process takes about 3 hours.
It is normal for the oven to emit smoke during the first few self-clean cycles. It is also normal
for the oven to emit popping sounds during self-cleaning. These sounds are caused by the
expansion and contraction of metal surfaces when the oven heats up and cools down.
Before self-cleaning the oven, remove the racks, all cookware (pots, pans, forks, etc.), foil
and any other loose objects from the oven cell.
Clean soil from the porcelain surfaces of the door. Rinse surfaces well with a solution of
vinegar and water, then wipe dry. Heavily soiled areas may be cleaned with a non-scraching
scouring pad.
Turn on kitchen fans or vents to help remove odors during the self-cleaning cycle.
Make sure the oven door is completely closed.
Press the CLEAN key.
Press the UP and DOWN
TIME keys to adjust the
Self-Clean time from 2 - 4
hours.
The control panel automatically
locks the oven door during self-
cleaning. The latch prevents the
door from being opened since the high interior oven temperatures can easily cause injury.
After the Self-Clean cycle is compete reinstall the oven racks. You may also notice a powder ash
in the bottom of the oven after self-cleaning. This is normal. Use a damp cloth or sponge to wipe
up the residue after the oven cools down.
Cleaning the Cooktop
To keep the cooktop looking and operating its best, clean it after every use, Also, quickly wipe
up spills that occur while cooking. Be careful not to touch any hot areas. Spills that remain on
hot burner parts will be very difficult to clean.
Use only a sponge, soft cloth, fibrous or plastic, or nylon pad for cleaning the surfaces of your
range. Avoid the use of abrasive cleaners. For extremely stubborn stains, you may use a mild
abrasive cleaner or applicator. Use with extreme care and only on occasion. Extensive use of
abrasive cleaners will eventually damage the ranges surfaces.
Cleaning the Burner Components
Remove anything stuck in the holes with a straightened paper clip, wire, or needle, Be careful
not to scratch or damage the burner components.
Soak the burner components in a warm solution of hand dishwashing liquid and water. Rinse
well with clean water. Dry the burner components thoroughly.
