IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USE
IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE
The Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act
requires the Governor of California 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 imperfect
combustion of natural or LP gas.
Correctly adjusted burners, indicated by a bluish rather
than a yellow flame, will minimize imperfect combustion.
Exposure to these substances can be minimized by
opening windows or using a ventilation fan or hood.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Have the installer show you the location of the range gas shut-off valve and how to shut it
off if necessary.
•Make sure your range is properly installed and grounded
by a qualified installer, according to the installation
instructions. Any adjustment and service should be
performed only by qualified gas range installers or
service technicians.
•Plug your range into a 120-volt grounded outlet only. Do
not remove the round grounding prong from the plug. If
in doubt about the grounding of the home electrical
system, it is your personal responsibility and obligation
to have an ungrounded outlet replaced with a properly
grounded, three-prong outlet in accordance with the
National Electrical Code. Do not use an extension cord
with this range.
•To prevent fire hazard or electrical shock, DO NOT use
an adapter plug, an extension cord, or remove the
grounding prong from the electrical power cord. Failure
to follow this warning can cause serious injury, fire or
death.
•To prevent poor air circulation, place the range out of
kitchen traffic path and out of drafty locations.
•DO NOT attempt to repair or replace any part of your
range unless it is specifically mentioned in this manual.
All other service should be referred to a qualified
technician.
•To prevent fire or smoke damage should the packaging
material ignite, make sure all packaging materials are
removed from the range before operating it.

- The range could be tipped and injury might result from
spilled hot liquid, food, or the range itself.
- If the range is pulled away from the wall for cleaning,
service, or any other reason, ensure that the Anti-Tip
Device is properly reengaged when the range is pushed
back against the wall.
• To reduce the risk of tipping of the range, the range
must be secured by properly installing anti-tip devices.
• To check that the anti-tip bracket is properly installed:
Grasp the top rear edge of the range back guard and
carefully attempt to tilt it forward. Verify that the anti-tip
devices are engaged.
• Warming drawer or Storage drawer : Remove drawer
and visually inspect that the rear leveling leg is fully
inserted into the anti-tip bracket.
• Refer to the installation manual for proper anti-tip
bracket installation.
$* * &,  (continued)

•Make sure your range is properly adjusted by a qualified
service technician or installer for the type of gas (natural
or LP) that is to be used. Your range can be converted
for use with either type of gas. See the installation
instructions.
•After using your range for a long time, high floor
temperatures may result and many floor coverings will
not withstand this kind of use.
Never install the range over vinyl tile or linoleum that
cannot withstand such type of use. Never install it
directly over interior kitchen carpeting.
•DO NOT leave children alone or unattended where a
range is hot or in operation. They could be seriously
burned.
•DO NOT let anyone climb, stand or hang on the oven
door, warming drawer or cooktop. They could damage
the range and even tip it over, causing severe personal
injury.
•NEVER wear loose fitting or hanging garments while
using the appliance. Be careful when reaching for items
placed in cabinets over the range. Flammable material
could be ignited if brought in contact with flame or hot
oven surfaces and may cause severe burns.
•DO NOT place flammable materials in an oven, a
warming drawer or near a cooktop.
•DO NOT place or use combustible materials such as
gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids in the
vicinity of this or any other appliance.
•DO NOT allow cooking grease or other flammable
materials in or near the range.
•DO NOT use water on grease fires. Never touch a
flaming pan. Turn the controls off. Smother a flaming
pan on a surface burner by covering the pan completely
with a well-fitting lid, cookie sheet or flat tray. Use a
multi-purpose dry chemical or foam-type fire
extinguisher.
A grease fire can be put out by covering it with baking
soda or, if available, by using a multi-purpose dry
chemical or foam-type fire extinguisher.
Flame in the upper oven or lower oven drawer can be
smothered completely by closing the oven door or
drawer and turning the control to off or by using a multi-
purpose dry chemical or foam-type fire extinguisher.
•DO NOT use the oven or the drawer for storage.
•Let the burner grates and other surfaces cool before
touching them.
•NEVER block the vents (air holes) of the range. They
provide the air inlet and outlet that are necessary for the
range to operate properly with correct combustion. Air
openings are located at the rear of the cooktop, at the
top and bottom of the oven door, and at the bottom of
the range under the warming drawer.
•Large scratches or impacts to glass doors can lead to
broken or shattered glass.
•Stepping, leaning or sitting on the doors or drawers of
this range can result in serious injuries and also cause
damage to the range. Do not allow children to climb or
play around the range. The weight of a child on an open
door may cause the range to tip, resulting in serious
burns or other injury.
• Leak testing of the appliance shall be conducted
according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
• WARNING: this product contains chemicals known
to the State of California to cause cancer. Wash
hands after handling.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USE
SURFACE BURNERS
•NEVER leave the surface burners unattended at high
flame settings. Boilovers cause smoking and greasy
spillovers that may catch on fire.
•Always turn knob to the “LITE” position when igniting
the top burners and make sure the burners have ignited.
•Control the top burner flame size so it does not extend
beyond the edge of the cookware. Excessive flame is
hazardous.
•Use only dry pot holders—moist or damp pot holders on
hot surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do not let
pot holders come near open flames when lifting
cookware. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth
Instead of a pot holder.
•If using glass cookware, make sure it is designed for
top-of-range cooking.
•To prevent burns, ignition of flammable materials and
spillage, turn cookware handles toward the side or back
of the range without extending over adjacent burners.
•NEVER place any items on the cooktop. The hot air
from the vent may ignite flammable items and will
increase pressure in closed containers, which may
cause them to burst.
•Carefully watch foods being fried at a high flame setting.
•Always heat fat slowly, and watch as it heats.
•If frying combinations of oils and fats stir together before
heating.
•Use a deep fat thermometer if possible to prevent
overheating fat beyond the smoking point.
•Use the least possible amount of fat for effective shallow
or deep-fat frying. Filling the pan too full of fat can cause
spillovers when food is added.
•DO NOT flame foods on the cooktop.
•DO NOT use a wok on the surface burners if the wok
has a round metal ring that is placed over the burner
grate to support the wok. This ring acts as a heat trap,
which may damage the burner grate and burner head.
Also, it may cause the burner to work improperly. This
may cause a carbon monoxide level above that allowed
by current standards, resulting in a health hazard.
•Foods for frying should be as dry as possible. Frost or
moisture on foods can cause hot fat to bubble up and
over the sides of the pan.
•NEVER try to move a pan of hot fat, especially a deep
fat fryer. Wait until the fat is cool.
•DO NOT place plastic items on the cooktop—they may
melt if left too close to the vent.
•Keep all plastics away from the surface burners.
•To prevent burns, always be sure that the controls for all
burners are at the “OFF” position and all grates are
cool before attempting to remove them.
•If you smell gas, turn off the gas to the range and call a
qualified service technician. Never use an open flame to
locate a leak.
•Always turn knob to the “OFF” position before removing
cookware.
•DO NOT lift the cooktop. Lifting the cooktop can cause
damage and improper operation of the range.
•If range is located near a window, do not hang long
curtains that could blow over the surface burners and
catch on fire.
WARNING:
•If the top burner flame goes out, gas is still flowing to
the burner until the knob is turned to the “OFF”
position. Do not leave the burners “ON” unattended.
•Use proper pan size - DO NOT use pans that are
unstable or easily tipped. Select cookware having flat
bottoms large enough to cover burner grates. To
avoid spillovers, make sure cookware is large enough
to contain the food properly. This will both save
cleaning time and prevent hazardous accumulations
of food, since heavy spattering or spillovers left on
range can ignite. Use pans with handles that can be
easily grasped and remain cool.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USE
SELF-CLEANING OVEN
•Make sure to wipe off excess spillage before self-
cleaning operation.
•DO NOT use oven cleaners. No commercial oven
cleaner or oven liner protective coating of any kind
should be used in or around any part of the oven.
Residue from oven cleaners will damage the inside of
the oven when the self-clean cycle is used.
•Oven racks and accessories should be removed from
the oven before self clean is started. Also remove any
items placed in the bottom drawer before starting a self
clean cycle.
•Clean only parts listed in this manual.
•DO NOT clean the door gasket. The door gasket is
necessary for a good seal. Care should be taken not to
rub, damage or move the gasket.
•If the self-cleaning mode malfunctions, turn the range off
and disconnect the power supply. Let it serviced by a
qualified technician.
COOK MEAT AND POULTRY THOROUGHLY
Cook meat and poultry thoroughly—meat to at least an
INTERNAL temperature of 160°F and poultry to at least
an INTERNAL temperature of 180°F.
To protect against foodborne illness, cook them to these
temperatures.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USE
OVEN
When opening the door of a hot oven, stand away from the range. The hot air and steam that escape
can cause burns to hands, face and eyes.
READ AND FOLLOW THIS SAFETY INFORMATION CAREFULLY.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
•DO NOT heat closed food containers.
Pressure could increase and the container could burst,
causing an injury.
•DO NOT use aluminum foil anywhere in the oven except
as described in this manual.
Doing so could create a fire hazard or cause damage to
the range.
•DO NOT use the oven for a storage area.
Items stored in the oven can catch on fire.
•Keep the oven free from grease buildup.
•Insert the oven racks in the desired position while the
oven is cool.
•To prevent burns when removing food, slide racks out
until the stop engages, then remove food items. It is
also a precaution against burns from touching hot
surfaces of the door or oven walls.
•When placing or removing griddle always wear oven
mitts.
•When using cooking or roasting bags in the oven, follow
the manufacturer’s directions.
•Use only glass cookware that is recommended for use
in gas ovens.
•Always remove the broiler pan from the range after you
finish broiling. Grease left in the pan can catch fire if
oven is used without removing the grease from the
broiler pan.
•When broiling, if meat is too close to the flame, the fat
may ignite. To prevent excessive flare-ups, trim excess
fat.
•Make sure the broiler pan is in place correctly to
minimize the possibility of grease fires.
•If you should have a grease fire in the broiler pan, press
the “CLEAR OFF” pad, and keep the oven door closed
to contain fire until it burns out.
•For safety and better cooking performance, always bake
and broil with the oven door closed.
WARNING: NEVER block any slots,
holes or passages in the oven bottom or cover an entire
rack with materials such as aluminum foil. Doing so
blocks air flow through the oven and may cause carbon
monoxide poisoning. Aluminum foil linings may also trap
heat, causing a fire hazard.
NOTE: Open door baking or broiling can cause damage
to the range’s knobs or valves.
DO NOT LEAVE THE OVEN DOOR OPEN DURING
COOKING OR COOL DOWN.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
USING THE GAS SURFACE BURNERS
Throughout this manual, features and appearance may vary from your model.
•Make sure all grates on the range are properly placed
before using any burner.
•Be sure the burners and grates are cooled down before
you place your hand, a pot holder, cleaning cloths or
other materials on them.
•Make sure all burners are in place.
•DO NOT operate the burner for an extended period of
time without cookware on the grate.
The finish on the grate may chip without cookware to
absorb the heat.
HOW TO LIGHT A GAS SURFACE BURNER
•Be sure all the surface
burners are placed in their
respective positions.
•Push the control knob in and
turn it to the “LITE” position.
•You will hear a little clicking
noise— the sound of the
electric
spark igniting the burner.
•To control the flame size, turn
the knob. If the knob stays at “LITE”, it will continue to
click.
•When turning a burner to “LITE”, all the burners spark.
Do not attempt to disassemble or clean around any
burner while another burner is on. An electric shock may
result, which could cause you to knock over hot
cookware.
IN CASE OF POWER FAILURE
In case of a power failure, you can light the gas surface
burners on your range with a match.
Hold a lit match to the burner, then push in and turn the
control knob to the “LITE” position. Use extreme caution
when lighting burners this way.
Surface burners in use when an electrical power failure
occurs will continue to operate normally.
SEALED GAS BURNERS
Your gas range cooktop
has five sealed gas
burners. They offer
convenience, ease of
cleaning and flexibility to
be used in a wide range
of cooking applications.
The smallest burner is in
the right rear position.
This burner can be
turned down to a low
simmer setting.
It provides precise
cooking performance for
delicate foods such as
sauces or foods that require low heat for a long cooking
time.
The medium (Left rear, center) and the large (left front)
burners are the primary burners for most cooking. These
general-purpose burners can be turned down from “HI”
to “LO” to suit a wide range of cooking needs.
The extra large burner (right front) is the maximum output
burner. Like the other four burners, it can be turned down
from “HI” to “LO” for a wide range of cooking
applications.
This burner is also designed to quickly bring large
amounts of liquid to a boil. It can be used with cookware
10 inches or larger in diameter.
NOTE: The right front burner, by design, is raised up from
the cooktop. This is normal.
Push the control knob in and
turn it to the “LITE” position.
