SAYET3<NOTICX
The California Saj’eDrinking
~~aterand Toxic Enforcement
Act requires the Governor of
California to publish alist of
substances known to the state
to cause cancer, birth defects or
other reproductive harm, and
re~uires businesses to warn
cu;tomers of potential exposure
to suchsubstances.
Gas appliances can cause
minor exposure to four of these
substances, narne~ybenzene,
carbon monoxide, formaldehyde
and soot, caused primarily by
the incomplete combustion of
natural gas or LP fuels. Properly
adjusted burners, indicated by a
bluish rather than ayellow
flame, will minimize incomplete
combustion. Exposure to these
substances can be minimized by
venting with an open ‘windowor
using aventilation tan or hood.
lvhen You Get Your Range

the location of the range gas
cut-off valve and IIow to shut
it off if necessary.

FOR SAFE HANDLING OF

SIDES OF THE COOKWARE.
Any flame largerthan the bottom

Ivhen using aiuminum o$-
aluminum.-clad stainless steel
pots and pans, adjust the flame
so the circle it makes is about 1/2
inch smaller than the bottomof
thecookware.
WheX~boiling, use this same
flame size—1/2 inch smaller than
the bottom of thecookware—no
matter what thecookware is made
of.Foods cookjust as quickly at
agentle boil tisthey do at a
furious, rolling boil. Ahigh boil
creates steam and cooks away
n~oisture,flavor and nutrition.
Avoidit cxccpt for the few
Tap”of”Rang@cookware
Alumi]Ium: Medium-weight
cookwareisrecommendedbecause
it heats quicklyand evenly.Most
foods brownevenly in an
aluminumskillet.Mineralsin food
and water will stain but will not
harm aluminum.Aquick scour
with asoap-filledsteelwoolpad
after eacl~use keeps aluminum
cookware lookingshinyand new.
Use saucepanswith tight-fitting
lids when cooking with minimum
amountsof water.
Cast Iron: If heated slowly,
most skilletswill give satisfactory
results.
Enamelware: Under some
conditions,the enamel of some
cookware may melt. Follow
cookware manufacturer’s
recommendations for cooking
methods.
Glass: There are two types of
glass cookware-those for oven
use only and those for top-of-range
cooking (saucepans, coffee and
teapots). Glass conducts heat
very slowly.
Heatproof Glass Ceramic: Can
be used for either surface or oven
cooking. It conducts heat very
slowly and cools very slowly.
Check cookware manufacturer’s
directions to be sure it can be used
on gas ranges.
StainlessSteel:This metal alone
has poor heating properties and is
usually combined with copper,
aluminum or other metals for
improved heat distribution.
Combination metal skillets usually
work satisfactorily if they are used
with medium heat as the
manufacturer recommends.

Werecommendthat you use only ;
flat-bottomedwok.They are
availableat your localretail store.
Do notuse woks that have supporl
rings.Use of these types of woks,
with or withoutthe ring in place,
can be dangerous.Placing the ring
over the burner grate may cause
the burner to work improperly
resulting in carbon monoxide
levels above allowable current
standards.This could be dangerou
to your health. Do not try to use
such woks without the ring. You
could be seriouslyburned if the
wok tipped over.
useofstoveTopGrills
(onmodelswith sealedburners)
Do not use stove top grills on your [
sealed gas burners. If yet] use the
stove top grill on the sealed gas
burner it will cause incomplete
combustion and can result ill

standards. This can be l~azardot~s

How tosetYourRange
forBaIiiHg
1.Positionthe shelfor shelvesin

Place food in oven on centerof
shelf.Allow at least2inches
between edgeof cookwareand

Preheating
Preheating is very important when
baking foods such as biscuits,
cookies, cakes and other pastries.
Preheat the oven for at least 10
minutes. Preheating is not
necessary when roasting or for
long-time cooking of whole meals.
ShelfPositions
Most baking is done on the (B)
shelf positit~ll.
When baking three or four items,
use two shelves positioned on the
(B &D) SLl~pOFtS.

Roastingiscookingby dry heat.
Tendermeat or poultrycan be
roasted uncoveredin youroven.
Roastingtemperatures,which
should be low and steady,keep
spatteringto aminimum.When
roasting,it is not necessaryto
sear, baste,cover or add water to
your meat.
The oven has aspeciallow shelf
(R) positionjust abovethe oven
bottom. Use it when extra cooking
space is needed, for example,
when roasting alarge turkey.The
shelf is not designed to slide out
at this position.
Roasting is easy;just follow
these steps:
Step 2: Check weightof roast.
Place meat fat-side-upor poultry
breast-side-upon roastingrack in a
shallowpan. The meltingfat will
bastethe meat. Selectapan as
closeto the size ofmeat as
possible.(Broilerpan with rack
is agood pan for this.)
Step 3: Turn OVEN SET knob to
BAKE or TIME BA~ and
OVEN TEMP knob to desired
temperature. Check the Roasting
Guide for temperaturesand
approximate cookingtimes.
Step 4: Most meats continueto
cook slightly while standing after
being removed from the oven.
Recommended standingtime for
roasts is 10to 20 minutes.This
allows roasts to firm up and makes
them easier to carve. Internal
temperature will rise about 5° to
10”F.If you wish to compensate
for temperature rise, remove the
roast from the oven when its
internal temperature is 5° to 10°F.

Roasting Guide.

FrozenRoasfi
~Frozen roastsof beef, pork,
lamb, etc., can be startedwithout
thawing,but allow 15to 25
minutesper pound additionaltime
(15 minutes perpound for roasts
under 5pounds,more time for
largerroasts).
~Thaw mostfrozen poultry before
roasting to ensureeven doneness+
Some commercialfrozen poultry
can be cooked successfullywithout
thawing. Followdirectionsgiven
on package label.
Dualshelfcooking
This allows more than one food
to be cooked at the same time. For
example: While roasting a20-lb.
turkey on shelf(R) asecond shelf
may be added on position Dso
that scalloped potatoes can be
cooked at the same time. Calculat(
the total cookingtime to enable
both dishes to complete cooking
at the same time. Allow 15-20
minutes of additional cooktime
for the potatoes.
Step 1: Position oven shelf at (B)
position for small size roast
(3 to 5lbs.) and at (R) position
for larger roasts.

Broilii]gis cookingfoodby direct
heat from abovethe food.Most
fish and tendercuts of meat can
be broiled.Follow thesestepsto
keep spatteringand smokingto
aminimum.
The oven door should be Closed
during broiling.
1. Oven doesnot need to be
preheated for broiling.
2. If meat has fat or gristlenear the
edge, cut vertical slashesthrough
it about 2inches apart,but don’t
cut into meat. Werecommend that
you trim fat to prevent excessive
smoking,leaving alayerabout
1/8inch thick.
3. Arrange food on rack and
position the broiler pan on the
appropriate shelf in the oven.
Placing food closer to flame
increases exterior browning of
food, but also increases spattering
and the possibility of fats and meat
juices igniting.
4. Close the oven door but do
not latch it. If the door latch is
moved to the right during abroil
operation, the door may lock and
you may not be able to open it
until the oven cools.
5. Turn OVEN SET knob to
BROIL. For most foods, turn
OVEN TEMP knob to BROIL.
Note: Chicken and ham are
broiled at alower setting in order
to cook food through without
overbrowning it.
6. Turn mostfoodsonceduring
cooking(theexceptionis thin
fil~etsof fish;oil one side,place
that sidedown on broilerrack and
cook withoutturninguntildone).
Timefood for aboutone-halfthe
total cookingtime, turn food, then
continueto cook to preferred
doneness.
7. Turn OVEN T’EMPknob
to OFF.Remove broilerpan
from oven and servefood
immediately.Leave pan outside
the oven to cool.
use of Aluminum Foil
Youcan use aluminum foil to line
your broiler pan and broiler rack.
However, you must mold the foil
tightly to the rack and cut slits in it
just like the rack.
Without the slits, the foil will
prevent fat and meatjuices from
draining to the broiler pan. The
juices could become hot enough to
catch on fire. if you do not cut the
slits, jIOLIare frying, not broiling.
Qllestions& Answers
Q. whe~l broiling, is it necessary
toalways use airael{inthe pa]~~
A. Yes, Usingtherack suspends
themeat overthe pan. As the meat
cooks,tiiejuices fall into the pan,
thuskeeping meat drier.Juicesare
p~otectedby therack and stay
cooler,thus preventingexcessive
spatterand smoking.
Q. Should Isaltthe nleat before
broiling?
A. No. Salt drawsout thejuices
and allowsthemto evaporate.
Always saltafter cooking.Turn
meat with tongs;piercing meat
with afork also allowsjuices
to escape. When broilingpoultry
or fish, brush each sideoften
with butter.
Q. Why are my meats not
turning out as brown as they
shouId?
A. Check to see if you are using
the recommended shelfposition.
Broil for longestperiod of time
indicated in the Broiling Guide.
Turn food only once during
broiling.

The holes in the burners of your
