_WARNING
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.
If 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.
k.... ,, .....................,,,
To insure safety for yoursetf, family and home,
please read your Owner's Manual carefully_
Keep it handy for reference Pay close
attention to the Safety sections.
BE SURE your oven is installed and grounded

IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE!
The California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic
Enforcement Act requires the governor of
California to publish alist 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, will
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, ff you wish to use your oven with LP.
gas, you must convert the range following
the procedure found in the Installation
instructions shipped with your oven.

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 preheatingo 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

During any oven operation you may hear a fan
noise This is the intemal cooling fan that
keeps all electrical parts from overheating It
is not uncommon for this fan to keep running
even after the oven is turned off

As the oven heats, the change in temperature
inside the oven causes water droplets to form

the door momentarily to allow the moist air out.

If baking with more than one pan, place the
pans so each has at least 1 to ! t/2" of air
space around it Place pans so one is not

The Oven Temperature Sensor at the back of
the oven continuously senses and controls the
temperature inside the oven. To keep a
constant set temperature, the burner will cycle
or turn on and off during cooking.
The low temperature zone of .your oven
(between 170_and 2OO°F) is available to keep
hot cooked foods warm However, foods kept
at these temperatures longer than 2 hours

preheat the oven when
broiling, Use the broiler pan and gnd that
came with your range Both are designed for
proper drainage of fat and liquids.
...... lu , i,, _,,, i,i
Foil must be molded tightly
to the grid and slits cut into
the foil to match those of
the grid. This allows fats
and liquids to drain into the
broiler pan, preventing fire
and excessive smoke.
Always remove the pan
and grid from the oven.
Storing or forgetting a
soiled broiler pan in the
oven is a potential smoke
or fire hazard.

The U S Department of Agriculture notes
that meat cooked rare is popular, but meat
cooked to on!y 140° F (rare) means that some
poisoning organisms may survive,
Moving meats away from the burner will allow
the meat to cook to the center while browning
on the outside. Using this positioning, cook
side 1at least 2 minutes longer than side 2. Be
sure the sump of the broiler pan is always
facing to the front of the oven.
Thesize, weight, thickness, starting temperature
and your preference of the doneness of the meat
will affect broiling, This chart is based on
meats at refrigerator temperature

oChoose tender cuts of meat at least 3/4"

oTrim the outer layer of fat, silt the edges to
keep meats from curling.
.Always use tongs to turn meats. Piercing
meat allows juices to escape.
oSalt the first side of meats just before
turning, the second side just before serving,
Brush chicken and fish with butter several
times as they broil.
•Chicken and fish should be placed on the
