IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
To reduce the risk of re, electrical shock, injury to persons, or damage when using the
appliance, follow the important safety instructions listed below:
Safety and warningsSafety and warnings
WARNING!
Electrical Shock Hazard
Before removing a faulty oven light bulb, make sure you turn the power to the range
off at the main fuse or circuit breaker panel. If you don’t know how to do this, con-
tact an electrician. Do not remove the kickstrip grate. Due to access to live electrical
parts behind it, the kickstrip grate should only be removed by a qualied technician.
This appliance is equipped with a three-prong or four-prong grounding plug for your
protection against shock hazard and should be plugged directly into a properly
grounded power outlet. Do not under any circumstances cut or remove the ground-
ing prong from this plug. Failure to follow this advice may result in death or electri-
cal shock.
WARNING!
Tipping Hazard
A child or adult can tip this range and be killed. It must be secured by a properly
installed anti-tip bracket. See installation instructions for details.
Ensure the anti-tip device is re-engaged when the range is moved. Check
engagment following the steps above. Do not use the appliance until it has been
secured. Failure to do so can result in or death or serious burns to children or
adults.
WARNING!
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 res. A violent steam explosion may result. Turn all burn-
ers off, then smother re or ame or use dry chemical or foam-type extinguisher.
Do not heat unopened food containters such as cans – Build-up of
pressure may cause container to burst and result in injury. Failure to follow this ad-
vice may result in injury or death.
WARNING!
Fire Hazard
Never use your appliance for warming or heating the room. Persons could be
injured or a re could start. Keep the area around the appliance free from combus-
tible materials (e.g. wall coverings, curtains, drapes), gasoline and other ammable
vapors and liquids.
Do not let cooking grease or other ammable materials accumulate in, or, or near
the appliance. Do not hang any articles (e.g. dish towels) off the oven handle.
Some fabrics may ignite or melt from the heat. Never leave the rangetop burners
unattended when in use – Boilover causes smoking and greasy spillovers that may
ignite. Be sure all the controls are turned off and the appliance is cool before using
any type of aerosol cleaner on or around the appliance. Chemicals in such cleaners
could, in the presence of heat, ignite or cause metal parts to corrode.
Failure to follow this advice may result in death or serious injury.
WARNING!
Poisoning Hazard
Never cover any slots, holes or passages in the oven bottom or cover an entire
rack or the oven oor with materials such as aluminum foil. Doing so blocks airow
through the oven and may cause carbon monoxide poisoning. Aluminum foil linings
may also trap heat, causing a re 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. Some cleaners can produce
noxious fumes if applied to a hot surface. Follow the directions of the cleaner man-
ufacturer. 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 appli-
ance. Failure to follow this advice may result in poisoning or death.
WARNING!
Hot Surface Hazard
Accessible parts may become hot during use. Do not touch burners, areas near
burners, the French Top, grill, griddle, grease drip-pans, heating elements or interior
surfaces of oven – These may be hot enough to cause burns even though they are
dark in color. During and after use, do not touch, or let clothing or other ammable
materials contact these parts and surfaces until they have had sufcient time to
cool. Other parts and surfaces of the appliance may become hot enough to cause
burns - among these areas are the grates, back trim and oven vents at the back of
the rangetop, front edge, surfaces adjacent to the rangetop, and the oven door.
Use only dry potholders – Moist or damp potholders on hot surfaces may result in
burns from steam. Do not let potholder touch hot heating elements. Do not use a
towel or other bulky cloth. Let hot grease cool before attempting to handle it. Ovens
with a CLEAN cycle: During self-cleaning, the oven reaches higher temperatures
than it does for cooking. Under such conditions, the surfaces may get hotter than
usual. Children should be kept away. Failure to follow this advice could result in
burns and scalds.

Safety and warnings Safety and warnings
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
• Safe food handling: leave food in the oven for as short a time as possible before and after cooking.
This is to avoid contamination by organisms which may cause food poisoning. Take particular care
during warmer weather.
• Clean only the parts listed in this manual.
• Do not use a steam cleaner to clean any part of the appliance.
• Do not obstruct the ow of combustion and ventilation air to the appliance.
• Before self-cleaning the oven – Remove oven shelves, side racks, broiler pan and all other cook-
ware/utensils, and wipe up large food spills or grease deposits.
• Before self-cleaning the oven –make sure you move any pet birds to another, closed and well ven-
tilated room. Some pet birds are extremely sensitive to the fumes given off during a self-cleaning
cycle, and may die if left in the same room as the range during such a cycle.
• Do not use any cookware on the French Top, grill or griddle.
• Top cover (lid) must be removed when the griddle is in operation.
• When using the grill or griddle, make sure the grease drip-pan is in place – absence of this during
use may subject wiring or components underneath to damage.
• The oven(s), French Top, grill, and griddle of your rangetop cannot be used in the event of a power
failure. Do not attempt to operate these during power failure.
• Do not use aluminum foil to line any part of the oven or rangetop. This will cause heat to be trapped
underneath it. This trapped heat can upset the cooking performance and damage the nish of the
oven or rangetop parts.
• Do not place any dishes, trays, water or ice directly on the oven oor during cooking, as doing so will
irreversibly damage the porcelain enamel nish.
• For safety reasons, the rangetop burner ame size should be adjusted so it does not extend beyond
the edge of the cookware.
• Use cookware of the appropriate size and construction for the type of cooking. This appliance is
equipped with burners of different sizes. Cookware must be matched to the size of the burner.
• Select utensils with at bottoms large enough to cover the burner ames. The use of undersized
utensils will expose a portion of the burner ames to direct contact and may result in ignition of cloth-
ing. Proper relationships of utensil to burner will also improve efciency.
• Protective liners – Do not use aluminum foil to line grease drip-pans or oven bottoms.
• Glazed cooking utensils – only certain types of glass, glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other
glazed utensils are suitable for rangetop service without breaking due to the sudden change in tem-
perature.
• Utensil handles should be turned inward and not extend over adjacent rangetop burners – To reduce
the risk of burns, ignition of ammable materials, and spillage due to unintentional contact with the
utensil, the handle of a utensil should be positioned so that it is turned inward, and does not extend
over adjacent rangetop burners.
• The Governor of California is required to publish a list of substances known to the State of California
to cause cancer or reproductive harm and requires businesses to warn customers of potential expo-
sures to such substances.
WARNING!: This product emits exhaust that contains chemicals known to the State of California to cause
cancer, birth defects, and other reproductive harm. To reduce the risk from such chemicals, make sure this
appliance is installed, operated, and maintained according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
• Read all the instructions before using the appliance. Use the appliance only for its intended pur-
pose as described in these instructions.

rangetop.
• Use care when opening the oven door – Let hot air or steam escape before removing or replacing
food.
• Keep oven vent ducts unobstructed.
• Keep rugs and mats well clear of the base of the range.
• Placement of oven shelves – Always position shelves in the desired location while the oven is cool
(before preheating). If a shelf must be removed while the oven is hot, do not let oven mitts or pot-
holder contact the base of the oven or hot heating elements in the oven.
• Do not clean the oven gasket or use any oven-cleaning products on it. It is essential for a good
seal, which ensures that the oven operates efciently. Care should be taken not to rub, damage or
move it.
• Do not use oven cleaners, harsh/abrasive cleaning agents, waxes, or polishes in a self-cleaning
oven. No commercial oven cleaner, oven liner, or protective coating of any kind should be used in\
or around any part of a self-cleaning oven.
• Do not use harsh/abrasive cleaners, scourers or sharp metal scrapers to clean the oven door glass
since they scratch the surface, which may result in the glass shattering.
• Do not sit or stand on the oven door or place any heavy objects on it – doing so may result in per-
sonal injury.

Conditioning the oven
Conditioning will burn off any manufacturing residues and ensure that you get the best results right
from the start.
1 Insert all of the racks. See ‘Positioning the racks for instructions.
2 Turn on the ventilation hood above your range on high.
3 Heat the empty oven at 450 degrees F for:
30 minutes using BAKE
15 minutes using BROIL (Main oven only).
See sections ‘Using your oven for baking and roasting’ and ‘Using your oven for broiling’ for instruc-
tions. There will be a distinctive smell while you are conditioning the oven. This is normal. Make
sure the kitchen is well ventilated during the conditioning.
4 Once cooled, wipe the oven interior with a damp cloth and mild detergent, and dry thoroughly.
Seasoning the griddle
1 Clean the griddle thoroughly with hot, soapy water to remove any protective coating.
2 Rinse with a mixture of 1 cup water and ¼ cup white vinegar, then dry thoroughly.
3 Pour 1 tsp vegetable (but not corn) oil into the center of the griddle, then rub it over its entire
surface, using a soft, heavy cloth.
4 Turn the griddle knob counterclockwise to 350oF.
5 When the oil begins to smoke, turn the knob clockwise to OFF and allow the griddle to cool.
6 Repeat steps 3 to 5.
7 Wipe the entire surface of the griddle using a soft, heavy cloth.
8 Apply a very thin layer of vegetable (but not corn) oil.
9 Check the grease drip-pan and clean if necessary. Discard any liquid or soiling that may have
collected in the grease drip-pan during the conditioning.
The griddle is now ready to use.
For best results, re-season the griddle after long periods of non-use.
Note: the griddle will darken with use. This is normal.

Oven modes
Important!
In convection mode, a cooling fan may come on to prevent parts of the range from overheating; you will
hear the fan and feel warm air coming from the vents in the back trim.
*Note: BAKE can be used for proong dough.
ACTIVITY OVEN MODE DESCRIPTION
• BAKING
• ROASTING
• REHEATING
• DEFROSTING
BAKE This is a traditional mode for baking, roasting,
and reheating food, ideal for recipes developed
in older ovens. Great for your favourite roasts
and baked goods that have a pastry base and do
not require direct heat and browning on the top.
BAKE
CONVECTION
Similar to BAKE, but a convection fan in the back
of the oven helps distribute the heat more
evenly, resulting in quicker browning and shorter
cooking times. When converting recipes from
traditional to convection baking, reduce the stated
cooking time or temperature. For some recipes,
reducing both slightly may give the best results.
• BROILING BROIL Intense heat from the top browns or ‘nishes off’
your meals. Broiling also gives you a healthier
alternative to frying or searing meat. For broiling
that requires a quick burst of intense heat, use
this mode with the temperature set to BROIL
(= maximum intensity).
BROIL
CONVECTION
Intense heat from the top is distributed by the
convection fan, giving a nish similar to a
rotisserie: meat is crispy and evenly browned on
the outside, juicy and tender in the middle. Also
great for cooking vegetables and suitable for
foods that you would normally pan-fry or grill.
Important!
• Depending on your model, your oven may have only some or all of the oven modes below.
TYPICAL FOODS ARRANGEMENT DO I NEED TO PREHEAT THE OVEN?
• Pies
• Pizza
• Cakes
• Cookies
• Quiche
• Whole turkey
• If baking on
more than one shelf,
ensure items or pans are
staggered on shelves so
that one is never directly
above another.
• Center items in the
oven as much as possible
for best air circulation.
• For baking: preheat the oven
for about 15 minutes or less for your
desired temperature.
• For roasting and reheating,
you don’t need to preheat the oven.
• Bread
• Brownie
• Mufns
• Prime rib roast
• Pork roast
• Vegetables
• Lasagna
• Chicken breasts
• Fish
• Steak/Chops/Cutlets
• Bacon
• Hamburger patties
• Browning casseroles
• ‘Au gratin’ dishes
• Slices of toast
• Always broil with
the oven door closed.
• For best results,
place food on the broil/
roast pan and grid and
center it under the broiler.
• Use a higher shelf
position for items that
require quick broiling, and
lower ones that need more
time to cook through.
• The oven generally doesn’t
need preheating for broiling.
• However, for best results
when you want quick browning or
searing, we recommend you let the
broiler heat for about 5-8 minutes
before placing food in the oven.
• Vegetables
• Whole chicken
• Tenderloin of beef

Oven cooking guidelines
Important!
• Use all the oven modes with the oven door closed.
• Never use aluminum foil to cover the oven shelves or to line the oor of the oven. The trapped heat
can irreversibly damage the enamel and may even cause re.
• Do not place water, ice, or any dish or tray directly on the oven oor, 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 re.
• 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 cook-
ing or defrosting. This is to avoid contamination by organisms which may cause food poisoning. Take
particular care during warmer weather.
Baking
• Always position the oven shelf/shelves you will need before turning the oven on. For single shelf bak-
ing, the most frequently used shelf position is no. 2. See the ‘Baking charts’ for more suggestions on
shelf positions. Remove any unused shelves and baking utensils from the oven.
• Preheat the oven to the temperature stated in the recipe before most baking. Depending on the tem-
perature and the size of the oven, preheating will take around 15-20 minutes.
• If you have a 48” range, the main oven is ideal for multi-shelf baking or baking larger quantites. For
smaller quantities baked on a single shelf, use the companion oven.
• Arrange pans and food items evenly on the shelves. Make sure pans do not touch each other or the
sides of the oven. When baking a single item, always center the item on the oven shelf. If baking on
multiple shelves, make sure you stagger items on the shelves so that one is never directly above an-
other.
• To convert recipes from traditional baking (BAKE) to convection baking (BAKE CONVECTION), either
reduce the temperature stated in the recipe and leave the baking time unchanged, or reduce the bak-
ing time by several minutes and leave the temperature unchanged. For foods with a baking time of
over an hour, reducing both the temperature and time slightly may give the best results.
• Dark metal baking pans or those with a dull nish absorb heat faster than shiny pans, and are excellent
for pies and breads, or anything that needs browning or a crisper crust.
• A shiny nish may work best for foods that require lighter, delicate browning (e.g. cakes and cookies),
as it reects some heat and gives a less intense baking surface.
• Avoid opening the oven door frequently during baking. Do not open the oven door until at least ¾
through the suggested baking time.
Oven cooking guidelines
Roasting
• Use the broil/roast pan and slotted grid supplied with the range when roasting, elevating the meat on
a metal roasting rack. This allows hot air to circulate around the meat, giving a more even browning
and a result similar to a rotisserie.
• When roasting larger items like a whole turkey, use only the pan and grid for greater stability.
• Use a meat thermometer to accurately determine the doneness of meat.
Broiling
• Always broil with the oven door closed. 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.
• The grid helps to reduce smoking and splatter by letting grease drip into the bottom of the pan, away
from intense heat. To prevent food sticking, spray the grid with a light coating of non-stick cooking
spray.
• Use a meat thermometer to accurately determine the doneness of meat.
• Choose a suitable shelf position. To ensure that meat is cooked through rather than just browned on
the outside, broil thick pieces of meat and poultry on shelf positions 2 or 3. Use shelf position 4 for
thinner items that need less cooking time like steaks, chops, or hamburger patties.
• When nishing off meals by browning the top under the broiler, use metal or glass-ceramic bake-
ware. Do not use heatproof glass or eartenware, as these cannot withstand the intense heat of the
broiler.
• Center the item in the oven, so that it is directly under the broiler.
Proongdough
• Heatproof glass bowls are best for proong, as you can gauge the increase in size without having to
open the oven or remove the cover.
• To lock in or increase moisture during proong, cover the bowl with a damp dish towel.
Defrosting
• To thaw uncooked frozen food, set the oven temperature to WARM. Once thawed, cook the food
immediately and do not refreeze.
• To prevent liquid from thawing food dripping on the oven oor, be sure any uncooked food is tightly
wrapped in foil and/or placed in a container.

tion pop’ or ash at the ame spreader a few seconds
after the burner has been turned off. This is normal for
LP gas.
Guidelines for using the rangetop burners
All burners have the same low turn-down setting (SIM) for gentle simmering. Use
the SIM setting for melting chocolate and butter, cooking rice and delicate sauces, simmering
soups and stews, and keeping cooked food hot.
For cooking that requires especially intense heat (e.g. searing meat, wok-cooking, stir-frying),
use the front burners, as these have a higher maximum output (23,000 BTU/hr for Natural gas). The
back burners output (15,000 BTU/hr for Natural gas).
Never leave the rangetop unattended when in use. Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spills
that may ignite.
Never allow ames to extend beyond cookware or curl up its sides. This could discolor and
damage the utensil and you may get burned touching a hot handle.
Keep handles out of the way. Turn handles so that they don’t extend over the edge of the range
or another burner that is on. Take care when deep-frying. Oil or fat can overheat very quickly, particular-
ly on a high setting.
Make sure that all burner parts are properly in place. Incorrect or incomplete burner
assemblies may produce dangerous ames. See ‘Replacing the burner parts’ in ‘Care and cleaning’.
Keep the burners clean, especially after a spill or boilover, make sure you clean the affected
burners before using them again. Food residue may clog the ignitor and burner ports, stopping the burn-
er from functioning correctly. See ‘Care and cleaning’ for instructions.
Check that the burner ames are regular. They should be blue with no yellow tipping, or uttering any-
where on the burner. If not, see ‘Troubleshooting’ for advice.

Using the grill
The grill is powered by a 20,000 BTU burner, and has a reversible grate. This allows you to change the
level of the food you are cooking to get a better sear and be closer or further away from the ame.
For foods that
should be closer to
the ame and on the
lower level grate for
a better sear, such
as:
Hamburger patties
Steak
Sausages
For foods that need
to be a greater dis-
tance from the ame
and on the higher
grate, such as:
Oily Fish
Vegetables
Chicken with skin
To use the grill
1 Check that the grill grate and the stainless steel radiant
tray are properly in place and you have the best side for
your food (rest of instructions below).
To use the grill (continued):
2 Turn the grill knob counterclockwise to the Lo (low) setting. The indicator light on bezel of the knob
lights up when in use. There may be a delay of up to a few seconds or so before the grill burner
lights. This is normal. If the grill does not light up in 5 seconds, turn to OFF, wait 1 minute, then turn
grill on again.
3 Allow the empty grill to preheat for about 10 minutes.
4 Adjust the heat anywhere between HI (high) and LO (low) during grilling.
5 When you have nished using the grill, turn the grill knob clockwise back to OFF.
6 Clean the grill grate immediately after use. See ‘Care and cleaning’ for instructions.
7 When the grill has cooled down, clean the grease drip-pan. See ‘Care and cleaning’ for instructions.

Using the French Top
The French Top is powered by a very high 25,000 BTU burner, and therefore has certian removable
pieces for specic cooking uses. The hottest area on a French Top is on the center star. You can also
remove the center star and outer ring allowing a wok to sit right above the exposed ame for high
temperature cooking. As you move away from the center star the heat becomes less intense. The outer
ring area is great for simmering. French Top pieces are heavy, and directions below are for safe revoval.
The surface area away from the star in the front can also be used for simmering dleicate items or as a
warming area. Caution when using this cooking surface becuase of its high performance and use.
Removing the French Top pieces
1 Make sure French Top is cool before removal
gegins. Place French Top tool into center of star.
2 Once the star is tilted up, grasp it with your
other hand.
3 Gently remove the star when using French Top
used to quickly heat a smaller stock pot.
4 Grasp the outer ring with both hands to remove.
5 Gently remove the outer ring when using French
Top used to quickly heat a larger stock pot.
6 A wok an also be used on French Top to have
direct heat high temperature cooking.

Grill cooking guidelines
Important!
• Never leave the grill unattended during use. Grease drippings may cause short are-ups or even
• sustained aming. If left unattended, these may cause a re.
• Make sure you have your ventilation hood set on maximum during grilling.
• Clean the radiant tray after frequently using. Accumulated grease can be a re hazard.
• The longer you preheat the grill, the darker the grill marks will appear on food.
• Trim excess fat off meat to minimize are-ups.
• Generally, start out on a high setting to sear or brown meat, then lower the setting to make sure
that meat or poultry is cooked through.
• When turning meat over, use tongs or a spatula as these will not puncture the meat and allow the
juices to run out.
Using the griddle
The griddle is powered by an 18,000 BTU burner. The griddle will darken and ‘season’ with use, devel-
oping a natural non-stick coating. When it is properly seasoned, it can be used without any additional
oil.
1 Check that the grease drip-pan is properly in place.
Important!
Always keep the vents at the rear of the griddle frame clear of any object: airow to the vents
must not be blocked.
2 If you haven’t used the griddle for a long time, re-season it. See section ‘First use’ for instructions.
3 Turn the griddle knob counterclockwise to the desired temperature.
There may be a delay of a minute or so before the griddle comes on. This is normal. The indicator light
on bezel of the knob lights up when in use. See the ‘Griddle cooking chart’ below for suggestions.
4 After turning the griddle ON for about 15 minutes, it will be ready to use.
5 When you have nished using the griddle, turn its knob clockwise back to OFF.
6 Clean the griddle and grease drip-pan after every use. The griddle should be cleaned very
carefully while it is still hot. See ‘Care and cleaning’ for instructions.
Important!
Clean the grease drip-pan after every use. Accumulated grease can be a re hazard.

DOs DON’Ts
• Read these cleaning instructions and the
‘Safety and warnings’ section before you start
cleaning your range.
• Before cleaning or removing any part, make
sure that everything on the range has been turned
off.
• Unless suggested otherwise in the chart fol-
lowing, allow any part to cool to a safe temperature
before cleaning. If you do need to handle a warm
or hot part (e.g. French Top, grill or griddle), take
extreme care. Wear long protective mitts to avoid
burns from steam or hot surfaces.
• Try using any cleaner on a small area rst, to
ensure it doesn’t stain.
• See the pages following this chart for instruc-
tions on removing and replacing different parts of
the range for cleaning or maintenance.
• To help you identify any parts, see illustra-
tions in section ‘Introduction’ and after this cleaning
chart.
• Ensure the anti-tip device is re-engaged if
you move the range for cleaning. Failure to do this
may result in the oven tipping, and adults and chil-
dren may be killed.
• Do not use aerosol cleaners until the
range has completely cooled. The propel-
lant in these cleaners could catch re in the
presence of heat.
• Do not let soiling or grease accumu-
late anywhere in or on the range. This will
make future cleaning more difcult and may
present a re hazard.
• Do not use any abrasive or harsh
cleaners, cloths, scouring pads or steel
wool. These will scratch your range and
damage its appearance.
• Do not use a steam cleaner to clean
any part of the range.
• Do not perform any cleaning or main-
tenance on parts not specically named in
the chart below. If in doubt, contact Custom-
er Care.
• Do not lift the black grill and griddle
frames off the rangetop.

4 After cleaning, replace the side racks and
shelves.
Oven cleaners are caustic and
may permanently stain or
damage some surfaces. When
using an oven cleaner in a
non-selfcleaning oven, take care
not to let it come in contact with
any surface other than the oven
interior. If it accidentally does,
remove immediately.
Side racks Pre-soak any stubborn, burnt-on soiling, then clean
with a solution of mild detergent and hot water and
wipe dry with a microber cloth. Alternatively, clean
these in the dishwasher.
Oven racks 1 To remove stubborn or ‘baked-on’ soiling, scrub
with a dampened, soap-lled, nonmetal, non-abra-
sive pad, then wipe dry.
2 Apply a chrome cleaner with a damp sponge or
cloth following manufacturer instructions.
3 Wipe and dry.
Do not wash the main oven
racks in the dishwasher, im-
merse them in soapy water, or
use oven cleaner on them. Doing
so will remove the lubricating
grease in the slides, stopping
them from running smoothly.
