are equipped with a three-prong ground-
ing plug which must be plugged directly
into a properly grounded three-
hole 120 volt electrical outlet.
Always disconnect power
to appliance before ser-
vicing.
The three-prong grounding plug offers pro-
tection against shock hazards. DO NOT
CUT OR REMOVE THE THIRD
GROUNDING PRONG FROM THE

owner to have the outlet replaced with a
properly grounded three-hole electrical
outlet.
Genera|
|nslLructions
To check if device is properly installed,
look underneath range with a flashlight to
make sure one of the rear leveling legs is
properly engaged in the bracket slot. The
anti-tip device secures the rear leveling leg

to the floor when properly engaged. You
should check this anytime the range has
been moved.
1"oPrewe.lL Fire or
Smoke Damage
Be sure all packing materials are removed
from the appliance before operating it.
Keep area around appliance clear and
free from combustible materials, gaso-
line, and other flammable vapors and ma-
terials.
If appliance is installed near a window,
proper precautions should be taken to
prevent curtains from blowing over burn-
ers.
NEVER leave any items on the cooktop.
The hot air from the vent may ignite flam-
mable items and may increase pressure in
closed containers which may cause them
to burst.
Many aerosol-type spray cans are EX-
PLOSIVE when exposed to heat and may
be highly flammable. Avoid their use or
storage near an appliance.
Many plastics are vulnerable to heat. Keep
plastics away from parts of the appliance
that may become warm or hot. Do not
leave plastic items on the cooktop as they
may melt or soften if left too close to the
vent or a lighted surface burner.
To eliminate the hazard of reaching over
hot surface burners, cabinet storage should
not be provided directly above a unit. If
storage is provided, it should be limited
to items which are used infrequently and
which are safely stored in an area sub-
jected to heat from an appliance. Tem-
peratures may be unsafe for some items,
such as volatile liquids, cleaners or aero-
sol sprays.
ChUd Safety
NEVER leave children alone or unsuper-
vised near the appliance when it is in use
or is still hot.
NEVER allow children to sit or stand on
any part of the appliance as they could be
injured or burned.
Children must be taught that the appli-
ance and utensils in it can be hot. Let hot
utensils cool in a safe place, out of reach of
small children. Children should be taught
that an appliance is not a toy. Children
should not be allowed to play with con-
trols or other parts of the unit.
CAUTION: NEVER store items of inter-
est to children in cabinets above an appli-
ance or on backguard of a range. Children
climbing on the appliance door to reach
items could be seriously injured.
Abou Your
Appliance
NEVER use appliance as a space heater to
heat or warm a room to prevent potential
hazard to the user and damage to the
appliance. Also, do not use the cooktop or
oven as a storage area for food or cooking
utensils.
Do not obstruct the flow of combustion
and ventilation air by blocking the oven
vent or air intakes. Restriction of air flow
to the burner prevents proper performance
and increases carbon monoxide emission
to unsafe levels.
Avoid touching oven vent area while oven
is on and for several minutes after oven is
turned off. Some parts of the vent and
surrounding area become hot enough to
cause burns. After oven is turned off, do
not touch the oven vent or surrounding
areas until they have had sufficient time
to cool.
Other potentially hot surfaces include
cooktop, areas facing the cooktop, oven
vent, surfaces near the vent opening, oven
door and areas around door and window.
WARNING: NEVER use appliance door,
or drawer, if equipped, as a step stool or
seat as this may result in possible tipping
of the appliance, damage to the appliance,
and serious injuries.
Do not touch a hot oven light bulb with a
damp cloth as the bulb could break. Should
the bulb break, disconnect power to the
appliance before removing bulb to avoid
electrical shock.
Cooking Safe|Ly
Always place a pan on a surface burner
before turning it on. Be sure you know
which knob controls which surface burner.
Make sure the correct burner is turned on
and that the burner has ignited. When
cooking is completed, turn burner off be-
fore removing pan to prevent exposure to
burner flame.
Always adjust surface burner flame so
that it does not extend beyond the bottom
edge of the pan. An excessive flame is
hazardous, wastes energy and may dam-
age the appliance, pan or cabinets above
the appliance.
NEVER leave a surface cooking operation
unattended especially when using a high
heat setting or when deep fat frying.
Boilovers cause smoking and greasy
spillovers may ignite. Clean up greasy
spills as soon as possible. Do not use high
heat for extended cooking operations.
NEVER heat an unopened container on
the surface burner or in the oven. Pressure
build-up may cause container to burst
resulting in serious personalinjury or dam-
age to the appliance.
Use dry, sturdy pot holders. Damp pot
holders may cause burns from steam.
Dishtowels or other substitutes should
never be used as pot holders because they
can trail across hot surface burners and
ignite or get caught on appliance parts.
Always let quantities of hot fat used for
deep fat frying cool before attempting to
move or handle.
Do not let cooking grease or other flam-
mable materials accumulate in or near the
appliance, hood or vent fan. Clean hood
frequently to prevent grease from accu-
mulating on hood or filter. When flaming
foods under the hood turn the fan on.

Important Safety Instructions. co.t.
NEVER wear garments made of flam-
mable material or loose fitting or long-
sleeved apparel while cooking. Clothing
may ignite or catch utensil handles.
Always place oven racks in the desired
positions while oven is cool. Slide oven
rack out to add or remove food, using dry,
sturdy pot holders. Always avoid reach-
ing into the oven to add or remove food. If
a rack must be moved while hot, use a dry
pot holder. Always turn the oven off at the
end of cooking.
Use care when opening the oven door. Let
hot air or steam escape before moving or
replacing food.
PREPARED FOOD WARNING: Follow
food manufacturer's instructions. Ifa plas-
tic frozen food container and/or its cover
distorts, warps, or is otherwise damaged
during cooking, immediately discard the
food and its container. The food could be
contaminated.
NEVER use aluminum foil to cover an
oven rack or oven bottom. Misuse could
result in risk of electric shock, fire, or
damage to the appliance. Use foil only as
directed in this guide.
U e.si| Safe y
Use pans with flat bottoms and handles
that are easily grasped and stay cool. Avoid
using unstable, warped, easily tipped or
loose-handled pans. Also avoid using
pans, especially small pans, with heavy
handles as they could be unstable and
easily tip. Pans that are heavy to move
when filled with food may also be
hazardous.
Be sure utensil is large enough to properly
contain food and avoid boilovers. Pan
size is particularly important in deep fat
frying. Be sure pan will accommodate the
volume of food that is to be added as well
as the bubble action of fat.
To minimize burns, ignition of flammable
materials and spillage due to uninten-
tional contact with the utensil, do not
extend handles over adjacent surface burn-
ers. Always turn pan handles toward the
side or back of the appliance, not out into
the room where they are easily hit or
reached by small children.
Never let a pan boil dry as this could
damage the utensil and the appliance.
Follow the manufacturer's directions
when using oven cooking bags.
Only certain types ofglass, glass /ceramic,
ceramic or glazed utensils are suitable for
cooktop or oven usage without breaking
due to the sudden change in temperature.
Follow manufacturer's instructions when
using glass.
This appliance has been tested for safe
performance using conventional cook-
ware. Do not use any devices or accesso-
ries that are not specifically recommended
in this guide. Do not use eyelid covers for
the surface units, stovetop grills, or add-
on oven convection systems. The use of
devices or accessories that are not ex-
pressly recommended in this manual can
create serious safety hazards, result in
performance problems, and reduce the
life of the components of the appliance.
C|ea.i.g Safe y
Turn off all controls and wait for appli-
ance parts to coolbefore touching or clean-
ing them. Do not touch the burner grates
or surrounding areas until they have had
sufficient time to cool.

Wami.g
The California Safe Drinking Water and
Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986 (Proposi-
tion 65) requires the Governor of Califor-
nia to publish a list of substances known
to the State of California to cause cancer or
reproductive harm, and requires busi-
nesses to warn customers of potential ex-
posures to such substances.
Users of this appliance are hereby warned
that the burning of gas can result in low-
level exposure to some of the listed sub-
stances, including benzene, formaldehyde
and soot, due primarily to the incomplete
combustion of natural gas or liquid petro-
leum (LP) fuels. Properly adjusted burn-
ers will minimize incomplete combustion.
Exposure to these substances can also be
minimized by properly venting the burn-
ers to the outdoors.
IMPORTANT NOTICE REGARDING
PET BIRDS: Never keep pet birds in the
kitchen or in rooms where the fumes from
the kitchen could reach. Birds have a very
sensitive respiratory system. Fumes re-
leased during an oven self-cleaning cycle
may be harmful or fatal to birds. Fumes
released due to overheated cooking oil,
fat, margarine and overheated non-stick
cookware may be equally harmful.

Sealed Burners
The sealed burners of your range are se-
cured to the cooktop and are not designed
to be removed. Since the burners are sealed
into the cooktop, boilovers or spills will not
seep underneath the cooktop. However,
the burners should be cleaned after each
use. (See page 9 for cleaning directions.)
Unlike a range with con-
ventional gas burners,
this cooktop does not lift-
up nor is it removable.
Do not attempt to lift
the eooktop for any rea-
son.
NOTE: The cooktop on slide-in ranges with
either conventional or sealed burners will
NOT lift up.
Burner Grates
The grates must be properly
positioned before cooking.
Improper installation of the
grates may result in chipping
of the cooktop.
Do not operate the burners
without a pan on the grate.
The grate's porcelain finish may chip
without a pan to absorb the heat from
the burner flame.
Although the burner grates are durable,
they will gradually lose their shine and/
or discolor, due to the high temperatures
of the gas flame.
Drip Pans -Optional
Removeable porcelain covered drip pans
are available for use with this appliance to
help contain spills. Call 1-800-688-8408 to

Baking resn|ts differ from
previous oven.
•Temperatures often vary between a new
oven and an old one. As ovens age, the
oven temperature often "drifts" and may
become hotter or cooler.
Baking results are not what
yon expected.
•Check the oven temperature selected.
Make sure oven is preheated when recipe
or directions recommend preheat.
• Check rack positions. See page 8.
• Usecorrectpan. Darkpans produce dark
browning. Shiny pans produce light
browning. See "Cooking Made Simple"
booklet for more information on
bakeware.
• Check the use of foil in the oven. Never
use foil to cover an entire oven rack.
Place a small piece of foil on the rack
below the pan to catch spillovers.
• Checkpanplacement. Stagger pans when
using two racks. Allow 1-2 inches be-
tween pans and oven walls.
• Make sure the oven vent has not been
blocked. See page 8 for location.
• Check to make sure range is level.
Food not broi|ing proper|y.
•Check oven setting. See page 7.
• Check rack positions. See page 7.
• Aluminum foil was incorrectly used.
Never line the broiler pan insert with foil.
Oven smokes excessively
during broi|ing.
• Food too close to flame. See page 7 for
more information.
• Broiler insert covered with aluminum
foil.
• Excess fat not trimmed from meat prior
to broiling.
• A soiled broiler pan was used.
Moisture condensation
co||ects on oven window.
• This is normal when cooking food high
in moisture.
• Excessive moisture was used whenclean-
ing the window.
Strong odor or light smoke
occurs when oven is turned
on.
• This is normal for a new range and will
disappear after a few uses. Opening a
window or turning on a fan will help
remove the smoke and odor.
• Excessive food soils on the oven bottom.
