IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING YOUR COOKTOP
•Know which knob controls each surface heating unit. Always turn the knob to the
LITE position when igniting the burners. Visually check that burner has lit. Then adjust
the flame so it does not extend beyond the edge of the utensil.
• Use proper pan size. This appliance is equipped with one or more surface burners of
different sizes. Select utensils having flat bottoms large enough to cover the surface
burner. The use of undersized utensils will expose a portion of the surface burner to
direct contact and may result in ignition of clothing. Proper relationship of utensil to the
surface burner wilt also improve efficiency.

Safety 7
• Utensil handles should be turned invcard and not extend over adjacent surface
burners--To reduce tile risk of burns, ignition of flammable materials, and spillage due
to unintentional contact with the utensil. The handle of the utensil should be positioned
so that itis turned inward, and does not extend over adjacent surface burners.
, Never leave surface burners unattended at high heat settings--Boilovers cause
smoking and greasy spitlovers that may ignite, or a pan that has boiled dry may melt.
• Protective liners--Do not use aluminum foil to line oven bottom or any other part of the
appliance. Only use aluminum foil as recommended for baking if used as a cover placed
on the food. Any other use of protective liners or aluminum foil may result in a risk of
electric shock or fire or short circuit.
•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 temperature. Check the manufacturer's recommendations
for rangetop use.
•Air curtain or other overhead range hoods, which operate by blowing a downward
air flow on to a range, shall not be used in conjunction with gas ranges other than
when the hood and range have been designed, tested and listed by an indepen=
dent test laboratory for use in combination with each other.
• Do not use decorative surface burner covers. If a burner isaccidentally" turned
on, the decorative cover will become hot and possibly melt. Burns wilt occur ifthe hot
covers are touched. Damage may also be done to the cooktop or burners because
the covers may cause overheating. Air will be blocked from the burner and cause
combustion problems.
•Do not clean or operate a broken cooktop--tf cooktop should break, cleaning
solutions and spillovers may penetrate the broken cooktop and create a risk of electric
shock. Contact a qualified technician immediately.
• Clean cooktop glass with caution--If a wet sponge or cloth is used to wipe spills on a
hot cooking area, be careful to avoid a steam burn. Some cleaners can produce harmful
fumes if applied to a hot surface.
-Avoid scratching the cooktop glass with sharp objects.
iMPORTANT iNSTRUCTiONS FOR USING YOUR OVEN
- Use care when opening oven door or warmer drawer (if equipped)--Stand to the
side of the range when opening the door of a hot oven. Let hot air or steam escape
before you remove or replace food in the oven! warmer drawer.
•Keep oven vent ducts unobstructed. The oven vent is located under the cooktop
Touching the surfaces in this area when the oven is operating may cause severe burns.
Also, do not place plastic or heat-sensitive items on or near the oven vent. These items
could melt or ignite.
A WARNING
Nevercoveranyslots,holesor passagesin theovenbottomor coveran entirerackwith materialssuch
asaluminumfoil. Doingso blocksairflow throughtheovenand maycausecarbonmonoxidepoisoning.
Aluminumfoilliningsmayalsotrapheat,causingafire hazard.
Placement of oven/warmer drawer (if equipped) racks. Always place oven racks in
desired locationwhile oven/warmer drawer (if equipped) is cool. If rack must be moved
while oven is hot use extreme caution. Use pothotders and grasp the rack with both
hands to reposition. Do not let potholders contact the hot heating elements in the oven/
warmer drawer (if equipped). Remove all utensils from the rack before moving.

afety
• Do not use the broiler pan without its insert. The broiler pan and its insert allow
dripping fat to drain and be kept away from the high heat of the broiler.
Do not cover the broiler insert 'with aluminum foil. Exposed fat and grease could
ignite.
,Do not touch a hot light bulb with a damp cloth. Doing so could cause the bulb to
break. Disconnect the appliance or turn off the power to the appliance before removing
and replacing light bulb.
iMPORTANT iNSTRUCTiONS FOR CLEANING YOUR RANGE
•Clean the range regularly to keep all parts free of grease that could catch
fire. Exhaust fan ventilation hoods and grease filters should be kept clean. Do not
allow grease to accumulate on hood or filter. Greasy deposits in the fan could catch
fire. When you are flaming food under the hood, turn the fan on. Refer to the hood
manufacturer's instructions for cleaning.
SELF CLEANING OVENS
. In the self-Cleaning cycle only clean the parts listed in this Use and Care Guide.
Before self cleaning the oven, remove the broiler pan and any utensils or foods from the
oven.
•Do not use oven cleaners--No commercial oven cleaner or oven liner protective
coating of any kind should be used in or around any part of the oven.
• Do not clean door gasket--The door gasket is essential for a good seal. Care should
be taken not to rub, damage or move the gasket.
• Remove oven racks. Oven racks color will change if left in the oven during a self-
cleaning cycle.
CAUTION

Formost cooking, start on the highest control setting and then turn to a lower one to
complete the process. Use the chart below as a guide for determining proper flame size for
various types of cooking. The size and type of utensil used and the amount of food being
cooked wilt influence the setting needed for cooking.
For deep fat frying_ use a thermometer and adjust the surface control knob accordingly.
If the fat is too cool, the food will absorb the fat and be greasy. If the fat is too hot, the food
will brown so quickly that the center will be undercooked Do not attempt to deep fat fry too
much food at once as the food will neither brown nor cook properly.
*Flame Size

*These settings are based on using medium-weight aluminum pans with
lids. Settings may vary when using other types of pans.
Never extend the flame beyond the outer edge of the utensil. A higher flame
simply wastes heat and energy, and increases your risk of being burned by the
flame.

PROPER BURNER ADJUSTMENTS
[] [] [] [] [] [] [] [] [] [] [] [] [] mE [] [] I [] [] [] [] []
The color of the flame is the key to proper burner adjustment. A good flame is clear, blue
and hardly visible in a well-lighted room. Each cone of flame should be steady and sharply
defined. Adjust or clean burner if flame is yellow-orange. To clean burner, see instructions
under General Care & Cleaning.

Air Circulation in the Oven
For best air circulation and baking results allow 2-4}> (5-10 cm) around
the cookware for proper air circulation and be sure pans and cookware
do not touch each other, the oven door, sides or back of the oven
cavity. The hot air must circulate around the pans and cook_t,!arein the
oven for even heat to reach around the food.
