Surface Operation
Operation
Lighting Burners
All burners are ignite by electric ignition. There
are no open-flame, “stan ing” pilots.
Surface Burners-Automatic Re-ignition
To light the surface burners, push an turn the
appropriate control knob counter clockwise to any
position. This control is both a gas valve an an electric switch. Burners
will ignite at any “ON” position with the automatic re-ignition system.
If the flame goes out for any reason, the burners will automatically
reignite if the gas is still flowing. When gas is permitte to flow to the
burners, the electric igniters start sparking. On all surface igniters you
shoul hear a “clicking” soun . If you o not, turn off the control an
check that the unit is plugge in an that the fuse or circuit breaker is
not blown or trippe .
Within a few moments, enough gas will have travele to the burner to
light. When the burner lights, turn the burner control to any position to
a just the flame size. Setting the proper flame height for the esire
cooking process an selecting the correct cooking vessel will result in
superior cooking performance, while also saving time an energy.
Surface Cooking Tips
Your range is equippe with a variety of ifferent size surface burners.
Below is a gui e for which burners work best for certain cooking
applications:
Surface Cooking Tips (cont.)
• Use low or me ium flame heights when cooking in vessels that are
poor con uctors of heat, such as glass, ceramic, an cast-iron.
Re uce the flame height until it covers approximately 1/3 of the
cooking vessel iameter. This will ensure more even heating within
the cooking vessel an re uce the likelihoo of burning or scorching
the foo .
• Re uce the flame if it is exten ing beyon the bottom of the
cooking vessel. A flame that exten s along the si es of the vessel is
potentially angerous, heats the utensil han le an kitchen instea
of the foo , an wastes energy.
• Re uce the flame height to the minimum level necessary to perform
the esire cooking process. Remember that foo cooks just as
quickly at a gentle boil as it oes at a rolling boil. Maintaining a
higher boil than is necessary wastes energy, cooks away moisture,
an causes a loss in foo flavor an nutrient level.
• The minimum pot or pan (vessel) iameter recommen e is 6”
(15 cm) on the larger burners. Pots or pans as small as 4” (10 cm)
shoul be use on the smaller burners.

Rack Positions
Each oven is equippe with three full extension gli e racks. All ovens
have six rack positions. Position 6 is the farthest from the oven bottom.
Position 1 is the closest to the oven bottom. The racks can be easily
remove an arrange at various levels. For best results with
conventional baking, DO NOT use more than one rack at a time. It is
also recommen e , when using two racks, to bake with the racks in
positions 2 an 4 or positions 3 an 5.
Cooking Vessels
Each cook has his or her own preference for the particular cooking
vessels that are most appropriate for the type of cooking being one.
Any an all cooking vessels are suitable for use in the range an it is
not necessary to replace your present omestic vessels with commercial
cookware. This is a matter of personal choice. As with any cookware,
yours shoul be in goo con ition an free from excessive ents on
the bottom to provi e maximum performance an convenience.
Note: When using big pots and/or high flames, it is recommended to
use the front burners. There is more room in the front and potential
cleanup at rear of appliance due to staining or discoloration will be
minimized.

Conventional an Convection Cooking
Because of variations in foo ensity, surface texture an consistency,
some foo s may be prepare more successfully using the conventional
bake setting. For this reason, conventional baking is recommen e
when preparing bake goo s such as custar . The user may fin other
foo s that are also prepare more consistently in conventional bake. It
is recommen e to use this function for single-rack baking.
Convection Cooking Tips
Convection cooking is a cooking technique which utilizes fan-force
air to circulate throughout the entire oven cavity creating the optimum
cooking environment. Cooking with convection is inten e when
performing multi-rack baking an for heavier foo s. Below are some
tips which will allow you to get the best results out of your oven when
cooking with convection.
• As a general rule, to convert conventional recipes to convection
recipes, re uce the temperature by 25°F (10°C) when using a
convection cooking function.
• Cooking times for stan ar baking an convection baking will be the
same. However, if using convection to cook a single item or smaller
loa , then it is possible to have 10-15% re uction in cooking time.
(Remember convection cooking is esigne for multi-rack baking or
cooking large loa s.)
• If cooking items which require longer than 45 minutes, then it is
possible to see a 10-15% re uction in cooking time.
• A major benefit of convection cooking is the ability to prepare foo s

BAKE
(Natural Airflow Bake)
Full power heat is ra iate from
the U-shape bake burners in
the bottom of the oven cavity
an is circulate with natural
airflow. This function is
recommen e for single rack
baking. Many cookbooks contain
recipes to be cooke in the
conventional manner.
Conventional baking is suitable
for ishes that require a high temperature. Use this setting for baking
an casseroles.
To Use BAKE Function
1. Arrange the oven rack in the esire position before turning
oven on.
2. Set the oven function selector to "Bake" an the temperature
control knob to esire temperature
3. Close the oor.
CONVECTION BAKE
Heat is ra iate from the U-
shape bake burners in the
bottom of the oven cavity. The
heate air is circulate by one
motorize fan in the rear of the
oven provi ing a more even
heat istribution. Multiple rack
use is possible for the largest
baking job. When roasting,
cool air is quickly replace —
searing meats on the outsi e an retaining more juices an natural
flavor on the insi e with less shrinkage. This even circulation of air
equalizes the temperature throughout the oven cavity an eliminates
the hot an col spots foun in conventional ovens.

To Use CONVECTION BAKE Function
1. Arrange the oven rack in the esire position before turning oven on.
2. Set the oven function selector to “Convection Bake” an the
temperature control knob to esire temperature
3. Set the oven temperature control knob to esire temperature an
turn on the convection fan.
4. Close the oor.
Baking Tips
• Make sure the oven racks are in the esire position before you turn
on the oven.
•DO NOT open the oor frequently uring baking. Look through the
oor win ow to check oneness whenever possible. If you must open
the oor, the best time is uring the last quarter of the baking time.
• Bake to the shortest time suggeste an check for oneness before
a ing more time. For bake goo s, a stainless steel knife place in
the center of the pro uct shoul come out clean when one.
• Use the pan size an type recommen e by the recipe to ensure
best results. Cakes, quick brea s, muffins, an cookies shoul be
bake in shiny, reflective pans for light, gol en crusts. Avoi the use
of ol , arkene pans. Warpe , ente , stainless steel an tin-
coate pans heat unevenly an will not give uniform baking results.
Pan Placement Tips
• When using large (15"x 13") flat pans or trays that cover most of the
rack, rack positions 2 or 3 pro uce the best results.
• When baking on more than one rack, it is recommen e to use the
3r an 5th position for more consistent even baking.
• Stagger pans in opposite irections when two racks an several pans
are use in conventional bake. If possible, no pan shoul be irectly
above another.
• Allow 1 to 2 inches of air space aroun all si es of each pan for
even air circulation.

Broiling
BROIL
Heat ra iates from the broiler
locate at the top of the oven
cavity. The istance between
the foo s an the broil
elements etermines broiling
spee . For “fast” broiling, foo
may be as close as 2 inches
(5 cm) to the broil element or
on the top rack. “Fast” broiling
is best for meats where rare to
me ium oneness is esire . Use this setting for broiling small an
average cuts of meat.
CONVECTION BROIL
The top burner operates at full
power. This function is exactly
the same as regular broiling
with the a itional benefit of air
circulation by the motorize fan
in the rear of the oven. Smoke
is re uce since the airflow also
re uces peak temperatures on
the foo . Use this setting for
broiling thick cuts of meats.
infrared broil
convection broil
Broiling Instructions
Broiling is a ry-heat cooking metho using irect or ra iant heat.
It is use for small, in ivi ualize cuts such as steaks, chops, an
patties. Broiling spee is etermine by the istance between the
foo an the broil element. Choose the rack position base on
esire results.
Conventional broiling is most successful for cuts of meat 1-2 inches
thick an is also more suitable for flat pieces of meat. Convection
broiling has the a vantage of broiling foo slightly quicker than
conventional. Convection broiling of meats pro uces better results,
especially for thick cuts. The meat sears on the outsi e an retains
more juices an natural flavor insi e with less shrinkage.
To Use Broil or Convection Broil
1. Arrange the oven rack in the esire position before turning
broiler on.
2. Center the foo on col broiler pan an gri supplie with your
oven. Place broiler pan in oven.
3. Set the oven function selector to “Broil” or “Convection Broil” an
the temperature knob to “Broil”.
4. Set the oven temperature control knob to “Broil”. Turn on the
convection fan if you wish to convection broil.
5. Close the oor. There is not a etent to hol the oor in the open
broil stop position as only close oor broiling is recommen e for
this range. With close oor broiling the broil element might cycle
on an off if an exten e broiling time is require .

Broiling Tips
•ALWAYS use a broiler pan an gri for broiling. They are esigne
to provi e rainage of excess liqui an fat away from the cooking
surface to help prevent splatter, smoke, an fire.
• To keep meat from curling, slit fatty e ge.
• Brush chicken an fish with butter several times as they broil to
prevent rying out. To prevent sticking, lightly grease broiler tray.
• Broil on first si e for slightly more than half the recommen e time,
season, an turn. Season secon si e just before removing.
•ALWAYS pull rack out to stop position before turning or removing
foo .
• Use tongs or a spatula to turn meats. NEVER pierce meat with a
fork, as this allows the juices to escape.
• Remove the broiler pan from the oven when you remove the foo .
Drippings will bake onto the pan if it is left in the heate oven after
broiling. While pan is hot, place amp paper towel over gri . Drizzle
with liqui ishwashing etergent an pour water over gri . This will
make cleaning of the pan easier, or the broiler pan can be line with
aluminum foil to make cleaning easier. Be sure the foil exten s up
the si e of the pan. Although it is not recommen e , the gri can
also be covere with foil. Be sure to slit openings to conform with
the openings in the gri so melte fat can rain through to prevent
spattering, smoking, or the possibility of grease fire.
Rack Positions for Broiling
Note: Position 6 is the closest to the broiler and position 1 is the
closest to the oven bottom.
