9 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING
To reduce the risk of injury to persons, in the event
of a range top grease fire, observe the following:
• Smother flames with a close-fitting lid, cookie
sheet, or other metal tray, then turn off the gas
burner or the electric element. Be careful to
prevent burns. If the flames do not go out
immediately, evacuate and call the fire
department.
• Never pick up a flaming pan. You may be burned.
•DO NOT use water, including wet dish cloths or
towels, to extinguish flames – a violent steam
explosion will result.
• Use an extinguisher ONLY if:
• You know you have a class ABC extinguisher
and you already know how to operate it.
• The fire is small and contained in the area
where it started.
• The fire department is being called.
• You can fight the fire with your back to an exit.
WARNING
To eliminate risk of burns or fire caused by reaching
over heated surface units, cabinet storage located
above the surface units should be avoided.
WARNING
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF A GREASE FIRE:
• Never leave surface units unattended at high
settings. Boilovers cause smoking and greasy
spillovers that may ignite. Heat oils slowly on low
or medium settings.
• Always turn hood ON when cooking at high heat
or when flambéing food (i.e. Crepes Suzette,
Cherries Jubilee, Peppercorn Beef Flambé).
• Clean hood filters frequently. Grease should not
be allowed to accumulate on fan or filter.
• Use proper pan size. Always use cookware
appropriate for the size of the appliance burner.
NEVER use any part of the appliance for storage.
Flammable materials can catch fire and plastic items may
melt or ignite. DO NOT hang articles from any part of the
appliance. Some fabrics are quite flammable and may
catch on fire.
If the appliance is near a window, be certain the curtains
do not blow over or near the appliance burners; they
could catch on fire.
ALWAYS have a working smoke detector near the kitchen.
In the event that personal clothing or hair catches fire,
drop and roll immediately to extinguish flames.
Have an appropriate fire extinguisher available nearby,
highly visible, and easily accessible near the cooking
appliance.
Smother flames from food fires, other than grease fires,
with baking soda. Never use water on cooking fires.
Whenever possible, do not operate the ventilation system
during a fire. However, DO NOT reach through fire to turn
it off.
NEVER let clothing, potholders, or other flammable
materials come in contact with or too close to any burner
or burner grate until it has cooled. Fabric may ignite and
result in personal injury.
Use only dry potholders: moist or damp potholders on hot
surfaces may cause burns from steam. DO NOT use a
towel or other bulky cloth in place of potholders. DO NOT
let potholders touch hot burners or burner grates.
For personal safety, wear proper apparel. Loose fitting
garments or hanging sleeves should never be worn while
using this appliance. Some synthetic fabrics are highly
flammable and should not be worn while cooking.
DO NOT use aluminum foil to line any part of the
appliance. Use of a foil liner could result in a shock or fire
hazard, or the obstruction of the flow of combustion and
ventilation air. Foil is an excellent heat insulator and heat
will be trapped beneath it. This will upset the cooking
performance and can damage the finish of the appliance.
WARNING
The appliance is for cooking. Based on safety
considerations, never use the appliance to warm or
heat a room. Doing so may result in carbon monoxide
poisoning and overheating of the unit. Also, such use
can damage the appliance parts.
When using the appliance: DO NOT TOUCH THE
BURNER GRATES OR THE IMMEDIATE SURROUNDING
AREA. Areas adjacent to the burners may become hot
enough to cause burns.

Page. 10
9 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
Never leave the appliance unattended when using high
flame settings. Boil overs cause smoking and greasy
spillovers that may ignite. Also, if the burner flames and
igniter are smothered with spillage, unburned gas will
escape into the room. See page 6 regarding gas leaks.
Only certain types of glass, heatproof glass-ceramic,
ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed cookware are
suitable for cooking on the burners. This type of cookware
may break with sudden temperature changes. Use only on
low or medium heat settings according to the utensil
manufacturer’s directions.
DO NOT heat or warm unopened food containers. Build-
up of pressure may cause the container to burst and cause
injury.
WARNING
During cooking, set the burner control so that the
flame heats only the bottom of the pan and does not
extend beyond the bottom of the pan. This instruction
is based on safety considerations.
Use caution to ensure that drafts like those from forced air
vents or fans do not blow flammable material toward the
flames or push the flames so that they extend beyond the
edges of the pot.
Always use pots and pans that have flat bottoms large
enough to cover the burner. The use of undersized pots
and pans could expose a portion of the flame and may
result in ignition of clothing.
WARNING
Avoid using high flame setting with a pan larger than
the grate or with one that spans more than one
burner, such as a griddle, for prolonged periods of
time. This can result in poor combustion that
generates harmful by-products.
DO NOT use pots or pans on the grill plate accessory
(purchased separately). Bakeware, such as large casserole
pans, cookie sheets, etc., should never be used on the
accessory.
DO NOT use flammable cleaners to clean the appliance.
Remove the optional cutting board or griddle cover
accessory, which is stored on top of the griddle plate,
before operating the griddle or any adjacent burners.
GREASE IS FLAMMABLE. Let hot grease cool before
attempting to handle it. Avoid letting grease deposits
collect. Clean after each use.
For proper lighting and performance of the burners, keep
the igniter ports clean. It is necessary to clean the ports
when there is a boil over or when the burner does not light
even though the electronic igniters activate.
Clean the appliance with caution. Avoid steam burns; DO
NOT use a wet sponge or cloth to clean the appliance
while it is hot. Some cleaners produce noxious fumes if
applied to a hot surface. Follow directions provided by the
cleaner manufacturer.
WARNING
After a spill or boil over, turn off the burner and using
caution due to possible hot surfaces, clean around the
burner and burner ports. After cleaning, check for
proper operation.
Be sure all controls are turned off and the appliance is cool
before using any type of aerosol cleaner on or around the
appliance. The chemical that produces the spraying action
could, in the presence of heat, ignite or cause metal parts
to corrode.
WARNING
DO NOT block or obstruct the flow of air
through the ventilation openings. The vent is
located at the back of the appliance. The
vent needs to be unobstructed and open to
provide necessary airflow that is important
for proper performance.
DO NOT touch vent area while the appliance is on
and for several minutes after the appliance is off.
Some parts of the vent and surrounding areas become
hot enough to cause burns. Allow appliance sufficient
time to cool before touching or cleaning vent areas.
DO NOT position plastic or other heat-sensitive items
on or near the vent. These items could melt or ignite.
DO NOT obstruct the flow of combustion or ventilation
air.
DO NOT use the grill plate accessory for cooking
excessively fatty meats or products which promote flare-
ups.

Page. 11
9 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
When cooking fatty or oily foods on burners, the grill, or
the griddle, adjacent gas burners can ignite airborne
fumes. Use caution to avoid burns.
To avoid a fire hazard, grease accumulation must be
prevented by frequently cleaning the ventilation hood and
filters.
In case of fire or when intentionally “flaming” liquor or
other spirits on the appliance, follow manufacturer’s
instructions. Use caution when cooking foods with high
alcohol content (e.g. rum, brandy, bourbon). Alcohol
evaporates at high temperatures. There is a risk of burning
as the alcohol vapors may catch fire. Use only small
quantities of alcohol in foods.
DO NOT store or use corrosive chemicals, vapors,
flammables, or nonfood products in or near this appliance.
It is specifically designed for use when heating or cooking
food. The use of corrosive chemicals while heating or
cleaning will damage the appliance and could result in
injury.
WARNING
DO NOT leave food or cooking utensils, etc, in oven
during the self-cleaning mode of operation.
Before self-cleaning the oven (select models), remove
the broiler pan, oven racks, and any other utensils,
and excess spillage.
WARNING
This appliance should not be installed with a
ventilation system that directs air in a downward
direction toward the appliance. This type of
ventilation system may cause ignition and combustion
problems with the appliance resulting in personal
injury, property damage, or unintended operation.
Ventilating systems that direct the air upwards do not
have any restriction.
An air curtain or other overhead range hood, which
operates by blowing a downward airflow onto a
range, shall not be used in conjunction with a gas
range unless the hood and range have been designed
and tested in accordance with the Standard for
Domestic Gas Ranges, ANSI Z21.1 • CSA 1.1, and
listed by an independent testing laboratory for
combination use.
IMPORTANT: There is a possibility to discolor the back
wall under certain cooking conditions.
DO NOT clean, rub, damage, move or remove the door
gasket. It is essential for a good seal during baking. If the
gasket becomes worn or excessively soiled with food
particles, replace gasket to assure a tight seal.
Protect the self-cleaning feature. Clean only those parts
indicated in this booklet. DO NOT use commercial oven
cleaners or oven liner protective coatings of any kind in or
around the self-cleaning oven.
Place oven racks in desired position while oven is cool. If a
rack must be moved while the oven is hot, do not let the
potholders contact the broiler element.
DO NOT TOUCH HEATING ELEMENTS OR INTERIOR
SURFACES OF OVEN – Heating elements may be hot
even though they are dark in color. Interior surfaces of an
oven become hot enough to cause burns. During and
after use, do not touch, or let clothing or other flammable
materials contact heating elements or interior surfaces of
oven until they have had sufficient time to cool. Other
surfaces of the appliance may become hot enough to
cause burns - among these surfaces are oven vent
openings and surfaces near these openings, oven doors,
and windows of oven doors.
WARNING
NEVER cover 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.
Use care when opening the oven door; let hot air or steam
escape before removing or replacing foods.
Please note that some pets or humans can be sensitive to
the odors created during the self-cleaning process
whether it is a manufacturing residue burn off or food. It is
recommended that those potentially affected be removed
from the kitchen area during the self-clean process.

Oven operation
Positioning the oven racks
9 WARNING
To help prevent burns, never remove or reposition the
oven racks while the oven is ON or while the oven is
cooling.
• The correct rack position depends on the recipe and
the cooking mode.
• The rack positions are numbered from the bottom of
the oven, like an elevator.
• Rack position 3 is the most frequently used position.
• Place rack(s) in the proper position before turning on
the oven.
Initial start-up
Before baking or broiling, the oven and broiler should be
turned on to burn off the manufacturing oils using one of
the two following methods:
1. Turn on kitchen ventilation (or if vent hood is a
recirculation type open a window).
2. Turn the oven on to 450ºF (230ºC) for 20 to 30
minutes; then turn the broiler to broil for the same
length of time.
or
1. Turn on kitchen ventilation (or if vent hood is a
recirculation type open a window).
2. Remove oven racks.
3. Set oven to self-clean (select models).
The range occasionally has an odor or smoke when first
used. These odors or smoke comes from the burning off of
manufacturing residues and is typical of any new oven
regardless of manufacturer.
IMPORTANT: ALWAYS remove the oven racks before self-
cleaning the oven. If the gliding racks remain in the oven
during self-clean, lubricants in the glide mechanisms of
each rack will be lost and the finish will discolor.
Automatic operation of the cooling fan
The cooling fan runs during all cooking modes. The fan
can be heard when it is running, and warm air may be felt
as it is released from the oven vent. The fan may also run
after the oven is off.
Oven vent
The oven vent is located at the back of the unit. Warm air
may be released from the vent before, during and after
cooking. It is normal to see steam escaping from the vent,
and condensation may collect in this area. This area may
be warm when the oven is in use. Do not block the vent,
since it is important for air circulation.
Convection fan
The convection fan operates during all convection modes.
When the oven is operating in a convection mode, the fan
turns off automatically when the door is opened. The
convection fan may also run during self-clean.

Using the rangetop
Sealed STAR®burners
9 WARNING
To prevent flare-ups and avoid the creation of harmful
by-products, do not use the cooktop without all
burner caps and all burner grates properly positioned.
9 WARNING
To prevent burns, do not touch burner caps or grates
while hot. Turn the cooktop off and allow the burners
to cool.
The burner caps must be properly placed on the burner
bases for the cooktop to function properly. If the burner
cap is not properly placed, one or more of the following
problems may occur:
• Burner flames are too high.
• Flames shoot out of burners.
• Burners do not ignite.
• Burner flames light unevenly.
• Burner emits gas odor.
Burner cap placement
Each cap has a letter (B, D, or F) cast in the underside of
the cap that corresponds to a letter (B, D, or F) cast in the
burner base that is attached to the appliance.
To place the burner caps
1. Place each burner cap on its correct burner base per
its corresponding letter designation.
2. Place burner cap gently on top of base so that the
prongs of the burner base fit snugly into the groove of
the burner cap.
Checking the burner cap placement
• Check each burner to make sure there is no gap
between the burner cap and burner base.
• You may gently try to move the burner caps from side
to side to check if the caps are properly placed on the
burner bases.
• When properly placed, each burner cap will rest flat
on top of its burner base, and completely cover the
star-shape of the burner base when viewed from the
top as shown below.
Burner grate placement
To install the burner grates
1. Place grates flat-side down and align into the
rangetop recess.
2. Grates should rest flush against each other and
against the sides of the recess.

Control knobs
The control knobs for two sealed gas burners, one in front
and one in the rear, are located directly in front of and
below the pair of burners on the control panel.
Operation of the burners
To turn on the burners
1. Press in on the knob and turn it counter-clockwise HI.
– The igniter for the selected burner clicks and
sparks.
– After burner ignition, the igniter stops clicking.
2. Rotate the knob to any flame setting between HI and
LO.
LED panel light (select models)
Positioned below the bullnose, the LED panel light
provides task lighting with a theatrical ambiance.
The panel light toggle switch on the control panel turns
the light ON and OFF.
ExtraLow®burners
The drawing shows that the control knob has an additional
range after the XLO setting. When the knob is set within
this range, the flame cycles off and on.
By varying the length of time the flame is off and on, the
heat is reduced even further to cook delicate foods. For
example, these very low settings are suitable for
simmering and poaching, melting chocolate and butter,
holding cooked foods at temperatures without scorching
or burning, etc.
Operation of the ExtraLow®burners
•XLO, the very lowest setting, is achieved by cycling
the flame on for approximately 10 seconds and off for
50 seconds of each minute.
• When the knob is set just below the XLO setting, the
flame will cycle on for approximately 50 seconds and
off for 10 seconds of each minute.
• To vary the amount of low heat to suit the food and
quantity, the control can be set anywhere within the
XLO range marked on the knob.
ExtraLow®techniques
• To maintain a low or simmer heat, bring food to a
rolling boil. Stir well, then cover the pan and lower the
heat to a setting just below XLO.
• If a large pan is used, the simmer action may occur
mainly in the center of the pan. To equalize the
temperature throughout the food, stir the food
around the outer edges of the pan into the food in the
center.
• It is normal to stir food occasionally while simmering.
This is especially important when simmering for
several hours, such as for a homemade spaghetti
sauce or beans.
• If the setting is too low to hold a simmer, bring the
food back to a boil before re-setting to a higher heat.
• There may be bubbling when the flame cycles on and
no bubbles when the flame is off. Even when the flame
is off, there will be steam and a slight quiver on the
liquid’s surface.
POWERBOOST®(select
models)
The controls for the
ExtraLow burners have flame
settings even lower than the
standard low settings.
The POWERBOOST, or XHI, offers
the convenience to quickly boil
water, sear steaks, stir-fry
vegetables, etc. Use of the SIM
and XLO remains the same as the
other XLO knobs.
