AWARNING
L.P. BURNER ADJUSTMENTS
If you intend to use Liquefied Petroleum
Gas (bottled gas) all L.P. adjustments in
the Installation Instructions must be made
before using your oven.
ff your oven is not properly adjusted,
flames may be too high, or the oven may
use too much fuel, release toxic fumes or
cook poorly.
tlMPORTANT SAFETY NOT_CEt
The Cafifornia Safe Drinking Water and Toxic
Enforcement Act requires the governor of
Cafifornia to publish a list of substances
known to the state to cause birth defects or
other reproductive harm and requires
businesses to warn customers of potential
exposure to such substances.
Gas appliances can cause minor exposure to
four of these substances, namely benzene,
carbon monoxide, formaldehyde and soot,
caused primarily by the incomplete
combustion of natural gas or L.P. fuels.
Properly adjusted appliances, indicated by
the bluish rather than a yellow flame, wilt
minimize incomplete combustion. Exposure
to these substances can be minimized by
further venting with an open window or using
a ventilation fan or hood.
The oven, as shipped from the factory, can
only be operated with natural gas. Do not try
to operate it with L.P. (bottled) gas. High
flames and toxic fumes could cause serious
injury. If you wish to use your oven with L.Po
gas, you must convert the range following
the procedure found in the installation
instructions shipped with your oven.

OVENCOOKINGTIPS
It is normal to have some odor when using your
oven for the first time, This is caused by the
heating of new parts and insulation_
To help eliminate this odor, ventilate the
room by opening a window or using a
vent hood.
Let the oven preheat thoroughly when recipes
call for preheating Preheating is bringing the
temperature up to the temperature you will be
using during baking When the oven has
reached the preheat temperature, a tone will
sound. Have foods nearby ready to place in
the oven.
IMPORTANT:
Never cover the
oven bottom or
oven rack with
aluminum foil.
Improper use can
cause poor heat
flow, poor baking
results, and may damage the oven finish
In the back of the oven ,you will notice a small
tube, This is a heat sensor that maintains the
temperature of the oven Never move or bend
this tube
OVEN TEMPERATURE SENSOR
The oven vent is located above the oven door
This area could become hot during oven use
The vent is important for proper air circulation,
Never block this vent. Opening the door often to check foods will
cause heat loss and poor baking results
