nge Safety
Your safety and the safety of others are very important.
We have provided many important safety messages in this manual and on your appliance.
Always read and obey all safety messages.
This is the safety alert symbol.
This symbol alerts you to potential hazards that can kill or hurt you and
others.
All safety messages will follow the safety alert symbol and either the word
"DANGER" or "WARNING." These words mean:
You can be killed or seriously injured if you
don't immediately follow instructions.
You can be killed or seriously injured if you
don't follow instructions.
All safety messages will tell you what the potential hazard is, tell you how to reduce the
chance of injury, and tell you what can happen if the instructions are not followed.
The range will not tip during normal use. However, tipping can occur if you apply too much
force or weight to the open door without the anti-tip bracket properly secured.
Tip Over Hazard
A child or adult can tip the range and be killed.
Connect anti-tip bracket to wall behind range.
Reconnect the anti-tip bracket, if the range is moved.
See the installation instructions for details.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death or
serious burns to children and adults.
Rear Brace
Anti-Tip Bracket
Making sure the anti-tip bracket is installed:
• Slide range forward.
•Look for the anti-tip bracket securely attached to wall
behind range.
•Slide range completely back, so anti-tip bracket is over rear
brace of range.

ange Safety
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

ANTI-TIP BRACKET SECURELY
ATTACHED TO WALL BEHIND RANGE.
SLIDE RANGE COMPLETELY BACK,
SO ANTI-TIP BRACKET IS OVER REAR
BRACE OF RANGE.
•CAUTION - Donot store items of
interest to children in cabinets above a
range or on the backguard of a range -
children climbing on the range to reach
items could be seriously injured.
• Proper Installation - The range, when

Hot air and moisture escape from the oven
through vent. The vent is above the oven
door. It is needed for air circulation. Do not
block the vent. Poor baking/roasting can
result.
3. Grasp under handle and gently close
door as far as it will shut. Pull door out
at bottom to remove.

4. Set door aside on protected surface.
To reploce:
1. Fit hinge arms into slots in frame. Push in
at lower corners to insure that hinge arms
are fully engaged.
For normal use of your oven, you do not
need to remove the door. However, you can
remove the door by following the instructions
in this section.
The oven door is heavy. Use both hands
to remove and replace the door. Do not lift
and carry the door by the handle. To remove
and replace the door you may need help.
To remove:
1. Open door all the way.
NOTE: Two _2" (4 mm) Allen wrenches or
two nails of similar diameter may be used if
factory furnished door removal pins have
been misplaced. Be careful not to damage
porcelain finish.
2. Insert small end of a door removal pin
into each door hinge.
Insert small end of
pin here
2. Open the door all the way.
3. Remove the door removal pins from
each hole.
4. Close the door.
NOTE: If the door does not operate freely,
you have not instal{ed it properly. Repeat
Steps 1-4.

"ngand Caring for Your
Cooktop
Your cooktop has sealed gas burners. The
sealed burners spread the heat evenly
across the bottom of the cookware and
provide infinite heat control.
IMPORTANT: Your cooktop is factory-set
for use with Natural Gas. If you wish to
use L.P. gas, an L.P. Gas Conversion Kit
is included with your new range. See the
instructions included with the L.P.
conversion kit for details on making this
conversion.
* Position grate legs into the leg Iocators
on front and back of cooktop.

Using the surface burners"
Control knobs
1. Grasp the control knob.
2. Push in and turn to LITE. The electric
spark ignitor will ignite the gas flowing into
the burner. When you hear a clicking
sound, you know that the ignitors are
working. Gas is flowing as long as knob is
not set at OFR
3. When the burner is lit, turn the control
knob to the desired flame setting. (See the
guide under "Burner heat settings" later in
this section.) You can turn the knobs to
any of the marked settings. The ignitor will
turn off and the clicking will stop when the
knob is moved from LITE.
NOTES:
*The ignitors may click a number of times
before burner lights. This is normal.
*All four burner ignitors will spark
regardless of which burner you are using.
*Visually check that the burner has lit. If the
burner does not ignite, listen for the clicking
sound. If you do not hear the ignitor click,
TURN THE BURNER OFF. Check for a
tripped circuit breaker or blown fuse.
Check that the control knob is pressed
completely down on valve shaft. If the spark
ignitor still fails to operate, call your
nearest designated service outlet.
Proper grounding and polarity are
necessary for correct operation of the electric
ignition system. If the wall receptacle does not
provide correct polarity, the ignitor will
become grounded and click every once in
a while, even after the burner has ignited.
A qualified electrician should check the wall
receptacle to see if it is wired with correct
polarity.
Fire Hazard
Do not let the burner flame extend
beyond the edge of the pan.
Turn off all controls when not
cooking.
Failure to follow these instructions
can result in death or fire.
Burner heat settings
Use correct burner heat settings (see chart
later in this section). If the heat setting is too
high, it will affect cooking results.
Until you get used to the settings, use the
following as a guide.
SETTING RECOMMENDED USE
LITE ,, To light the burner.
HI *To start food cooking.
•To bring liquid to a boil.
MED to HI *To hold a rapid boil.

REMEMBER: When range is in use or
during the Self-Cleaning cycle, the entire
cooktop area may become hot.

Simmer Plate t
One Simmer Plate has been provided with
your cooktop. It
has been
designed to be
used with burner
settings in the
medium to low
range on your
cooktop when
lower tempera-
tures are required
for simmering or for maintaining food at a low
temperature over an extended period of time.
The Simmer Plate is made of aluminum to
evenly spread the heat over the bottom of
cookware.
Channels on the bottom of the Simmer Plate
(see diagram at
left) have been
designed so it fits
properly and
securely over the
grate.
tTo order additional Simmer Plates (Part No.
4455109), call 1-800-422-1230 (in U.S.A.)or
1-800-461-5681 (in Canada). You will hear a
recording. Follow the steps to place order.
In case of a prolonged power
failure
Surface burners can be manually lighted.
1. Hold a lit striker near a burner and turn
the control knob to the HI position.
2. After the burner lights, turn the control
knob to the desired setting.
NOTE: Do not leave a burner on without any
cookware on the grate. The grate finish can
be damaged.

Home canning information
The large diameter of most water-bath or
pressure canners combined with high heat
settings for long periods of time can cause
damage to the cooktop.
*For up-to-date information on canning,
contact your local U.S. Government
Agricultural Department Extension Office or
companies who manufacture home canning
products. In Canada, contact Agriculture
Canada.
To protect your range:
• Center the canner over the surface burner.
Do not extend more than 1 inch (2.5 cm)
outside the burner area.
• Do not place your canner on two surface
burners at the same time.
• Start with hot water, cover with a lid and
bring to a boil; then reduce heat to main-
tain a boil or required pressure levels in a
pressure canner.
Using the right cookware makes a
big difference
*The pan should have a flat bottom, straight
sides, and a well-fitting lid.
*Choose medium to heavy gauge
(thickness) cookware.
• The pan material (metal or glass) affects
how quickly and evenly the pan heats.
•When using glass or ceramic cookware,
check to make sure it is suitable for use on
surface burners.

The pan material affects how fast heat transfers from the surface cooking area through the pan
material and how evenly heat spreads over the pan bottom. Choose pans that provide the
best cooking results.
