IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
IIMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING
YOUR GAS COOKTOP
Know which knob or key controls each surface
heating area. Place cookware with food on the
cooking area before turning it on. Turn the
cooking area off before removing the cookware.
Use proper pan size. This appliance is equipped
with one or more surface units of different sizes.
Select cookware with flat bottoms that match the
surface unit heating element. The use of under-
sized cookware may expose a portion of the
flame to direct contact and may result in the
ignition of clothing or other items. Using the
proper cookware on the cooking areas will
improve efficiency.
Always turn knob to the full LITE position when
igniting top burners. Visually check that burner
has lit. Then adjust the flame so it does not
extend beyond the edge of the utensil.
When heating fat or grease, watch it closely.
Grease may catch fire if it becomes too hot.
Do not use water or flour on grease fires.
Smother fire or flame or use dry chemical or
foam-type extinguisher. Cover the fire with a
pan lid or use baking soda.
Use dry potholders. Moist or damp potholders
on hot surfaces may result in burns from steam.
Do not let potholders touch hot cooking areas.
Do not use towels or other bulky cloths.
Do not heat unopened food containers - Build-
up of pressure may cause container to burst
and result in injury.
Wear proper apparel - Loose-fitting or hanging
garments should never be worn while using the
appliance. Do not let clothing or other
flammable materials contact hot surfaces.
Do not touch surface burners or elements,
areas near these burners or elements, interior
surfaces of the oven, or the warmer drawer (if
equipped). Surface burners and elements may
be hot even though they appear cool. Areas
near surface burners and elements may
become hot enough to cause burns. During and
after use, do not touch, or let clothing or other
flammable materials touch these areas until
they are cool. These areas may include the
cooktop, surfaces facing the cooktop, oven vent
areas, oven door, and oven window.
CAUTION
Do not attempt to operate the appliance during
a power failure. If the power fails, always turn off
the appliance. If the appliance is not turned off
and the power resumes, electric surface
elements may resume operation when power is
restored. Once the power resumes, reset the
clock and the oven function.
Use Proper Flame Size — Adjust flame size so
it does not extend beyond the edge of the
utensil. The use of undersized utensils will
expose a portion of the burner flame to direct
contact and may result in ignition of clothing.
Proper relationship of utensil to flame will also
improve efficiency.
CAUTION
CAUTION

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
To reduce the 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 it is turned inward,
and does not extend over adjacent surface
burners.
Never leave surface burners unattended at high
heat settings — Boil overs cause smoking and
greasy spill overs that may ignite, or a pan that
has boiled dry may melt.
Glazed cooking utensils — Only certain types of
glass, glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or
other glazed utensils are suitable for cook top
service without breaking due to the sudden
change in temperature. Check the manufacturer’s
recommendations for cook top use.
When you are flaming foods under a ventilating
hood, turn the fan on.
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING
YOUR OVEN
Protective liners—Do not use aluminum foil, after-
market oven liners, or any other materials or
devices to line oven bottom, oven racks, or any
other part of the appliance. Only use aluminum as
recommended for baking, such as lining
cookware or as a cover placed on food. Any other
use of protective liners or aluminum foil may
result in a risk of electric shock or fire or a short
circuit.
Use care when opening oven door, lower oven
door, or warmer drawer (some models). Stand to
the side of the appliance when opening the door
of a hot oven. Let hot air or steam escape before
you remove or replace food in the oven.
Keep oven vent ducts unobstructed. Touching
surfaces in this area when the oven is on may
cause severe burns. Do not place plastic or heat-
sensitive items on or near the oven vent. These
items can melt or ignite.
Placement of oven racks - Always place oven
racks in desired location while oven is cool. If rack
must be moved while oven is hot, do not let
potholder contact hot burner or element in oven.
Use potholders and grasp the rack with both
hands to reposition. Remove all cookware and
utensils before moving the rack.
Do not use a broiler pan without its insert. Broiler
pans and inserts allow dripping fat to drain 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 cook food on the oven bottom. Always
cook in proper cookware and always use the
oven racks.
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR CLEANING

Control locations of the gas surface burners
Your range is equipped with gas surface burners with
different BTU ratings. The ability to heat food quicker and in
larger volumes increases as the burner size increases.
The small simmer burner is best used for simmering
delicate sauces, etc. This burner is located at the right rear
burner position on the cooktop. The standard burner can be
used for most surface cooking needs. The standard burners
are located at the left front and left rear positions on the
cooktop.
The power burners are best used for bringing large quanti-
ties of liquid rapidly up to temperature or when preparing
larger quantities of food. The power burner is located at the
right front position on the cooktop. Regardless of size,
always select cookware that is suitable for the amount and
type of food being prepared. Select a burner and flame size
appropriate to the pan. Never allow flames to extend
beyond the outer edge of the pan.
Assembly of the surface burner caps and burner
grates
It is very important to make sure that all of the surface
burner caps and surface burner grates are installed
correctly and at the correct locations.
1. Remove all packing material from cooktop area.
2. Discard all packing material (if applicable).
3. Unpack burner grates and position on the cooktop.
•The word REAR is stamped on the back of the burner
grates to help assure that the proper end of the grates
are placed to the rear of the cooktop.
•The grates are designed to rest inside the recess on
the cooktop.
•To install burner grates, place grates flat-side down
and align into the cooktop recess.
•Grates should rest flush against each other and
against the sides of the recess.
IMPORTANT

Operating the gas surface controls
1. Place cooking utensil on surface burner.
2. Push the surface control knob in and turn counterclock-
wise out of the OFF position.
3. Release the knob and rotate to the LITE position (see
figure 2). Note: All four electronic surface ignitors will
spark at the same time. However, only the burner you
are turning on will ignite.
4. Visually check that the burner has a flame.
5. Turn the control knob counterclockwise to the desired
flame size. The control knobs do not have to be set at a
particular setting. Use the knob indicator settings to
adjust the flame as needed. Do not cook with the
surface control knob in the LITE position. (The elec-
tronic ignitor will continue to spark if the knob is left in
the LITE position.)
In the event of an electrical power outage, the surface
burners can be lit manually. To light a surface burner, hold a
lit match to the burner head, then slowly turn the surface
control knob to LITE. After burner lights turn the knob to
desired setting.
•Do not cook with the surface control knob left in the
LITE position. The electronic ignitor will continue to
spark if the control knob setting remains in the LITE
position.
•When setting any surface control knob to the LITE
position, all electronic surface ignitors will spark at the
same time. However, only the surface burner you are
setting will ignite.
•Never place or straddle a cooking utensil over two
different surface cooking areas at the same time. This
can cause uneven heating results.
•In the event of an electrical power outage, the surface
burners can be lit manually. Use caution when lighting
surface burners manually. To light a surface burner,
hold a lit match to the burner head, then slowly turn
the surface control knob to LITE. After burner lights
push in and turn knob to desired setting.
•When operating the oven, it is possible for residual
heat from the oven to build-up and over time to even-
tually transfer to the surface control knobs located
directly above the oven door.
•Do not place flammable items such as plastic salt and
pepper shakers, spoon holders or plastic wrappings
on the cooktop when it is in use. These items could
melt or ignite. Potholders, towels, or wooden spoons
could catch fire if placed too close to the range
cooktop.
•Do not place aluminum foil or any material that can
melt on the range cooktop. If these items melt they
may permanently damage the cooktop surface.
•The cooktop should not be used during a self-clean
cycle. On some models, turning on any cooktop
surface burner will cause the clean cycle to cancel. If
the clean cycle is canceled, the oven control display
will show “SPr" for 5 seconds. The oven door will
remain locked until the oven has cooled down below
cleaning temperature. If the oven is below cleaning
temperature, the user can start another clean cycle
immediately. If the oven is in cleaning temperature
range, another self-clean cycle can be set once the
door unlocks (up to 4 hours).

SETTING SURFACE BURNERS
Setting proper surface burner flame size
For most cooking: Start on the highest control setting and
then turn to a lower one to complete the process. Use the
recommendations below as a guide for determining proper
flame size for various typesof cooking. The size and type of
utensil used and the amount of food being cooked will
influence the setting needed.
Gas Cooktop Burners
The front control gas cooktop comes with a variety of
burners to accommodate different sizes of cookware. The
most powerful burner (18k BTU) for cooking in larger pots
for canning or large amounts of soup or for boiling water is
located at the right front of the cooktop.
The cooktop also has12k, 7.5k, and 5k BTU burners to fit
most cookware and cooking need.
The Simmer Oval burner is in the center of the cooktop and
consists of a center burner and an oval burner. The center
burner of the simmer oval can be set separately from the
oval burner.
Settings based on using medium weight metal or
aluminum pans. Settings may vary using other types of
pans. The color of the flame is key to proper burner
adjustment. A good flame is clear, blue, and hardly visible
in a well lit room. Each cone of the flame should be
steady and sharp. Clean burner if flame is yellow-orange.
Flame Size Type of Cooking
High Flame •Start most foods
•Bring water to a boil
•Pan broiling
Medium Flame •Maintain slow boil
•Thicken sauces and
gravies
•Steaming foods
Low Flame •Keep foods cooking,
poaching and stewing
Figure 3: Gas flame adjustment
Never extend the flame beyond the outer edge of the
utensil. A higher flame simply wastes heat and energy,
and increases the risk of being burned by the gas flame.

SETTING SURFACE BURNERS
Setting the Simmer Oval Burner
The simmer oval burner is specifically designed for use with
a griddle, and can be used for simmering sauces or foods in
most pots or pans. There are two knobs which control the
separate functions of the simmer oval.
To turn on the full simmer oval use the control knob located
to the left of the oven mode knob. There is an oval icon
marking above the knob.
To access the center burner only, turn the control knob
located to the right of the oven temperature control knob.
Important: Both the simmer oval control and the center
control may be turned on at the same time.
Home Canning
Be sure to read and observe all the following points when
home canning with your appliance. Check with the United
States Department of Agriculture (USDA) website and be
sure to read all the information they have available as well
as follow recommendations for home canning procedures.
•Use only quality flat bottom canners when home
canning.
•Use a straight-edge to check canner bottom.
•Make sure the diameter of the canner does not exceed
1 inch beyond the surface element markings or burner.
•Start with hot tap water to bring water to boil more
quickly.
•Use the highest heat setting when first bringing the
water to a boil. Once boiling is achieved, reduce heat to
lowest possible setting to maintain that boil.
•Never place or straddle a cooking utensil over two
different surface cooking areas at the same time unless
the cooktop is designed for such a purpose.

Oven vent location
The oven vent is located under the backguard in the rear of
the cooktop. When the oven is on, warm air passes through
this vent. This venting is necessary for proper air circulation
in the oven and good baking results. While the oven is in
operation, it is normal for steam or moisture to appear near
the vent. Do not block oven vent.
Type of oven racks
Oven Rack Descriptions
• Flat oven racks (or the flat handle oven rack) may be
used for most cooking needs and may be placed in
most oven rack positions.
•The offset oven rack (some models) provides addi-
tional step down positions from the standard flat rack
design. The offset design positions the base of the rack
about ½ of a rack position lower than the flat rack and
may be used in most oven rack positions.
•The fully extendable oven glide rack allows you to
effortlessly extend your food away from the oven.
Removing, replacing, and arranging flat or offset
oven racks
To arrange - Always arrange the oven racks when the oven
is cool (prior to operating the oven).
To remove - Pull the oven rack straight forward until it
reaches the stop position. Lift up front of oven rack slightly
and slide out.
To replace - Place the oven rack on the rack guides on
both sides of oven walls. Tilt the front of oven rack upward
slightly and slide the oven rack back into place. Be sure
oven racks are level before using.
Figure 7: Oven vent location
Always use pot holders or oven mitts when using the
oven. When cooking, the oven interior and exterior, oven
racks and cooktop will become very hot which can cause
burns.
Remove all oven racks and clean according to instruc-
tions provided in the Care & Cleaning section of this
manual. Never pick up hot oven racks or parts.
All oven racks should be removed before a clean opera-
tion. Racks left in the oven during the high heat of the
clean function can easily discolor. The ability of the racks
to easily slide in and out along the rack positions may
also be affected.

the oven until the stop position is reached (Figure 9)
Using both hands, grasp the upper and lower portions of the
glide rack. Lift up the front of the rack slightly and continue
to pull the rack away from the oven (Figure 10). Be sure to
grasp both upper and lower rack portions together when
removing or handling the glide rack. The rack portions
move independently and are difficult to handle unless held
together.
To replace - grasp both upper and lower portions of glide
rack, lift and hold the rack level between the oven cavity
walls. Tilt the front of the rack upward slightly and slide the
rack completely into position.
Do not line the oven walls, racks, bottom or any other
parts of the range with aluminum foil or any other
materials or oven liners. Doing so will alter heat distribu-
tion and may cause permanent damage to the oven
interior. During clean the oven temperatures will be hot
enough to melt foil.
Protective Liners — Only use aluminum foil as recom-
mended in this manual. Improper installation of these
liners may result in risk of electric shock or fire.

Setting Bake
Baking tips
For best bake results:
•Fully preheat the oven before baking items like cookies,
cakes, biscuits, and breads. When using any single
rack, position the rack so that the food is in the center of
the oven.
•The convection fan will be on during preheat and then
turn off and on occasionally as needed.
•For best results when baking cakes using two oven
racks, place racks in positions 6 (offset rack) and 1
(Glide rack) Figure 14.
•When baking using two oven racks, position cookware
as shown in Figure 15. Allow at least 2 inches (5 cm) of
space between cookware for proper air circulation.
•Dark or dull bakeware absorbs more heat than shiny
bakeware. It may be necessary to reduce oven temper-
ature and cook time to prevent overbrowning of some
foods. Dark bakeware is recommended for pies. Shiny
bakeware is recommended for cakes, cookies, and
muffins.
Important: For batter and dough-based baked goods such
as cakes, pastries, and breads, use the regular bake
function for best results. For cookies use the convection
bake function.
.
Use the bake function whenever a recipe calls for normal
baking. When the set bake temperature is reached the
control will sound a chime to alert that the oven is fully
preheated.
Bake may be set for any temperature between (170°F
77°C) and 550°F (288°C).
To set BAKE for oven temperature of 350°F:
1. Be sure to arrange racks to the desired positions for the
item(s) to be baked.
2. Turn the oven mode selector to the BAKE position.
3. Turn the oven temperature selector to 350°F.
4. The PREHEAT and the oven temperature light will turn
on and sound an acceptance tone. The oven will begin
heating.
5. When the set temperature is reached a reminder chime
will sound alerting you to place food in oven. Set either
timer to keep track of actual cooking time if necessary.
6. When finished baking, be sure to return both the
temperature selector knob and the oven mode knob to
the OFF positions.
Note: Do not open oven door too often. Doing so reduces
oven temperature and may extend cooking time.The
convection fan will start after the oven has been heating for
6 minutes. It will stop each time the oven door is opened.

Convection Cooking
This mode of cooking enables you to obtain the best results
when baking with multiple pans and racks. The oven can be
programmed for convection baking at any temperature
between 170°F to 550°F with a default temperature of
350°F. The convection fan will turn on after 6 minutes and
remain on during the convection baking process.
The convection function uses a fan to circulate the oven
heat uniformly and continuously around the oven
(Figure 16). This improved heat distribution allows for fast,
even cooking and browning results. It also gives better
baking results when using two oven racks at the same time.
Benefits of convection cooking:
•Multiple rack baking.
•Some foods may cook faster.
Convection baking tips:
•Fully preheat the oven before baking items like cookies,
cakes, biscuits, and breads. For best results baking
cookies use convection bake function.
•If your recipe cooking temperature has not been
converted for convection baking, see “Setting Convec-
tion Convert” on page 21 for further instructions on
temperature conversion.
•When using any single rack, position the rack so that
the food is in the center of the oven.
•For best results when baking cakes using two oven
racks, place racks in positions 6 with offset rack and 1
using Glide rack (See Figure 16).
•When baking using two oven racks, position cookware
as shown in Figure 17. Allow at least 2 inches (5 cm) of
space between cookware for proper air circulation.
•Dark or dull bakeware absorbs more heat than shiny
bakeware. It may be necessary to reduce oven temper-
ature and cook time to prevent overbrowning of some
foods. Dark bakeware is recommended for pies. Shiny
bakeware is recommended for cakes, cookies, and
muffins.
•Do not open oven door too often. Doing so reduces
oven temperature and may extend cooking time.
•Most baked goods (except cakes) should be baked on
pans with no sides or low sides to allow air to circulate.
Setting Convection Bake
This mode of cooking enables you to obtain the best results
when baking with multiple pans and racks. The oven can be
programmed for convection baking at any temperature
between 170°F to 550°F.
To set the oven for convection bake and temperature to
350°F:
1. Arrange interior oven racks.
2. Turn the oven mode selector to CONVECT BAKE.
3. Turn the oven temperature selector to 350°F.
4. The convection fan will turn on 6 minutes after the oven
begins heating. Once the oven reaches the set temper-
ature the oven will sound a chime indicating the food
items can be placed in the oven.
5. When finished baking, be sure to return both the
temperature selector knob and the oven mode knob to
the OFF positions.
