•WARNING: NEVER use this appliance as a space
heater to heat or warm the room. Doing so may result in
carbon monoxide poisoning and overheating of the oven.
•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.
•CAUTION: Do not 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 installed, must be
electrically grounded in accordance with local codes or, in
the absence of local codes, with the National Electrical
Code, ANSI/NFPA 70. In Canada, the range must be
electrically grounded in accordance with Canadian
Electrical Code. Be sure the range is properly installed and
grounded by a qualified technician.

for your protection against shock hazard and should be
plugged directly into a properly grounded receptacle. Do
not cut or remove the grounding prong from this plug.
• Disconnect power before servicing.
• Injuries may result from the misuse of appliance doors or
drawers such as stepping, leaning, or sitting on the doors
or drawers.
• Maintenance - Keep range area clear and free from
combustible materials, gasoline, and other flammable
vapors and liquids.
• Storage in or on the Range - Flammable materials should
not be stored in an oven or near surface units.
• Top burner flame size should be adjusted so it does not
extend beyond the edge of the cooking utensil.
For self-cleaning ranges -
• Before Self-Cleaning the Oven - Remove broiler pan and
other utensils. Wipe off all excessive spillage before
initiating the cleaning cycle.

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.
IMPORTANT: Your range is factory-set for use with Natural gas. If
you wish to use LP gas, an LP Gas Conversion Kit is included
with your new range. See the "Gas Conversions" section of the
Installation Instructions for details on making this conversion.
Electric igniters automatically light the surface burners when
control knobs are turned to IGNITE.
The large burners (16,000, 14,000 and 12,500 Btu/h [British
Thermal Units]) provide the highest heat setting, and are ideal for
cooking large quantities of food or liquid, using large pots and
pans. The small burners (9,200 and 5,000 Btu/h) allow more
accurate simmer control at the lowest setting, and are ideal for
cooking smaller quantities of food, using smaller pots and pans.
Before setting a control knob, place filled cookware on the grate.
Do not operate a burner while using empty cookware or without
any cookware on the grate.
NOTE: Visually check that the burner has lit. If the burner does
not ignite, listen for a clicking sound. Ifyou do not hear the igniter
click, turn the burner off. Check for a tripped circuit breaker or
blown household fuse.
Check that the control knob is pressed completely down on the
valve shaft. If the spark igniter still does not operate, call a trained
repair specialist.
To Set:
1. Push in and turn knob counterclockwise to IGNITE.
All the surface burners will click. Only the burner with the
control knob turned to Ignite will produce a flame.
2. Turn knob anywhere between HIGH and LOW. Use the
following chart as a guide when setting heat levels.
SETTING RECOMMENDED USE
IGNITE • Light the burner.
HIGH • Start food cooking.
• Bring liquid to a boil.
Medium • Hold a rapid boil.
• Quickly brown or sear food.
• Fry or saute foods.
• Cook soups, sauces and gravies.
• Stew or steam foods.
LOW • Keep food warm.
• Simmer.
REMEMBER: When range is in use or (on some models)
during the Self-Cleaning cycle, the entire cooktop area may
become hot.

Gas tube opening: Gas must flow freely throughout the gas tube
opening for the burner to light properly. Keep this area free of soil
and do not allow spills, food, cleaning agents or any other
material to enter the gas tube opening. Keep spillovers out of the
gas tube by always using a burner cap.
Home Canning
When canning for long periods, alternate the use of surface
burners between batches. This allows time for the most recently
used areas to cool.
• Center the canner on the grate above the burner.
• Do not place canner on 2 surface burners at the same time.
• For more information, contact your local agricultural
department. Companies that manufacture home canning
products can also offer assistance.

Burner ports: Check burner flames occasionally for proper size
and shape as shown in the previous illustration. A good flame is
blue in color, not yellow. Keep this area free of soil and do not
allow spills, food, cleaning agents or any other material to enter
the burner ports.
To Clean:
IMPORTANT: Before cleaning, make sure all controls are off and
the oven and cooktop are cool. Do not use oven cleaners, bleach
or rust removers.
1. Remove the burner cap from the burner base and clean
according to "General Cleaning" section.
2. Clean the gas tube opening with a damp cloth.
3. Clean clogged burner ports with a straight pin as shown. Do
not enlarge or distort the port. Do not use a wooden
toothpick. If the burner needs to be adjusted, contact a
trained repair specialist.
4. Replace the burner cap, making sure the alignment pins are
properly aligned with the burner cap.
5=
A. Incorrect
B. Correct
Turn on the burner. If the burner does not light, check cap
alignment. If the burner still does not light, do not service the
sealed burner yourself. Contact a trained repair specialist.
IMPORTANT: Do not leave empty cookware on a hot surface
cooking area, element or surface burner.
Ideal cookware should have a flat bottom, straight sides and a
well-fitting lid, and the material should be of medium-to-heavy
thickness.
Rough finishes may scratch the cooktop or grates. Aluminum and
copper may be used as a core or base in cookware. However,
when used as a base they can leave permanent marks on the
cooktop or grates.
Cookware material is a factor in how quickly and evenly heat is
transferred, which affects cooking results. A nonstick finish has
the same characteristics as its base material. For example,
aluminum cookware with a nonstick finish will take on the
properties of aluminum.
Cookware with nonstick surfaces should not be used under the
broiler.
Use the following chart as a guide for cookware material
characteristics.
COOKWARE CHARACTERISTICS
Aluminum • Heats quickly and evenly.
• Suitable for all types of cooking.
• Medium or heavy thickness is best for
most cooking tasks.
Cast iron • Heats slowly and evenly.
• Good for browning and frying.
• Maintains heat for slow cooking.
Ceramic or • Follow manufacturer's instructions.
Ceramic glass • Heats slowly, but unevenly.
• Ideal results on low to medium heat
settings.
Copper • Heats very quickly and evenly.
Earthenware • Follow manufacturer's instructions.
• Use on low heat settings.
Porcelain • See stainless steel or cast iron.
enamel-on-steel
or cast iron
Stainless steel • Heats quickly, but unevenly.
• A core or base of aluminum or copper on
stainless steel provides even heating.
