surface cooking
BEFORE USING THE SURFACE BURNERS, make sure to follow all the safety warnings and precautions listed on page 8. Failure to do so could result in product damage, personal injury, and/or death.
LIGHTING A GAS SURFACE BURNER
Make sure all surface burners are positioned and assembled properly.
- Push in and turn the control knob to the LITE position. You will hear a "clicking" sound indicating the electronic ignition system is working properly.
- After the surface burner lights, turn the control knob to adjust the power setting of the surface burner and turn off the electronic ignition system.
We highly recommend using the right front side burner for simmering tomato sauce and right rear side burner for melting chocolate
MANUALLY LIGHTING A GAS SURFACE BURNER
If a power failure occurs, the surface burners can still be lit manually.
Use extreme caution when manually lighting a surface burner.
- Hold a long gas grill lighter to the surface burner you want to light.
- Push in and turn the control knob for that burner to the LITE position.
- After the burner has lit, set the control knob and the burner to the desired setting.
FLAME SIZE SELECTION
Flames larger than the bottom of the cookware will not result in faster heating, but could result in a fire hazard and/or personal injury.Always watch the flames when adjusting the heat setting with the control knob(s). The flames should always match the size of the cookware being used.
GAS SURFACE BURNERS AND CONTROL KNOBS
Your gas range cooktop has five gas burners. All sealed cooktop burners are of an open-port design to provide you easy assembly and accurate and dependable operation. The different burner sizes ensure you have the proper heat source for the desired cooking job.
The right rear side burner provides precise cooking performance for delicate foods and foods that require low heat for long cooking times. The right rear side burner lets you use the LO setting for a very low simmer setting.
The left rear side and center round burners are general- purpose burners that can be used for most cooking. The HI to LO settings provide a wide range of cooking temperatures to meet your cooking needs.
The right and left front side burners provide maximium output. These burners can also be used as general-purpose burners, but they are designed to provide quick heat to large cookware. The right and left front side burner spreads out the heat with a larger circle of flames.
COOKWARE USAGE
Using the correct cookware can prevent many problems, such as uneven cooking or extended cooking times. Using the proper pans will reduce cooking times and cook food more evenly. Look for the following pan characteristics:
- Flat bottom and straight sides.
- Tight-fitting lid.
- Weight of handle does not tilt pan.
- Pan is well-balanced.
- Pan size matches the amount of food being prepared and the size of the surface burner.
- Made of material that conducts heat well.
- The pot/pan diameter matches the surface burner flame diameter.
What your cookware is made of determines how evenly and quickly heat is transferred from the surface burner to the pan bottom.
ALUMINUM: Excellent heat conductor. Some types of food will cause the aluminum to darken. (Anodized aluminum cookware resists staining and pitting.)
COPPER: Excellent heat conductor, but discolors easily.
STAINLESS STEEL: Slow heat conductor with uneven cooking results. Is durable, easy to clean, and resists staining.
CAST-IRON: A poor conductor, but retains heat very well. Cooks evenly once cooking temperature is reached.
ENAMELWARE: Heating characteristics will vary depending on base material.
GLASS: Slow heat conductor. Glass cookware is designed for two usages—top-of- range cooking or oven use. Only use cookware where it is designated to be used.
Do not place a small pan or pot with a bottom diameter of about 6 inches or less on the center grate. Otherwise, it is likely that the pan or pot tips over. We highly recommend you to place such a small-sized pan or pot on the rear of both side grates.
CENTER BURNER GRATE
Samsung gas ranges come with a center burner grate. This grate fits over the center oval burner as well as round burner. The center burner grate should not be used over any other burners and no other center stovetop grates should be used with this range.
USING THE GRIDDLE (NX58F5500SS / NX58F5500SB / NX58F5500SW)
The non-fixed coated griddle provides an extra-large cooking surface for meats, pancakes or other food usually prepared in a frying pan or skillet.
How to Place the Griddle : The griddle can only be used with the center burner. The griddle must be properly place on center grate as the below figure.
How to make the center grate : DO NOT remove the center grate when using the griddle.
How to Cook : Preheat the griddle according to the below guide and adjust for the cook condition.
DO NOT remove the griddle plate until the cooktop grates, surfaces and griddle plate are completely cooled.
The griddle plate on the cooktop may become very hot when using the cooktop, oven or broil systems. Always use oven gloves when placing or removing the griddle plate.
Carefully put down the griddle plate on the center grate.
Griddle settings may need to be adjusted if the griddle is used for an extended time.
Your griddle will discolor over time as it becomes seasoned with use.
Move the griddle plate to the keeping place after using and getting cooled.

To prevent any discolorations and/or grease stains, we recommend cleaning and removing any spills, spots, and grease from the range after each use.
1. Wipe off any spills with a damp, soft cloth.
2. Apply an approved stainless steel cleaner to a damp, clean cloth or paper towel. Clean a small area carefully following the instructions on the cleaner. Stainless steel should always be cleaned with the grain in the stainless steel, if applicable.
Do not spray any type of cleaner into the manifold panel holes. Within these holes are ignition switches which carry the current that lights the surface burners. Spraying into them could damage the range.
Oven racks
To keep racks shiny and looking like new, remove racks from the oven and clean by hand in hot, soapy water with a plastic or soap-filled scouring pad.
Do not leave the oven racks in the oven during a self-cleaning cycle. The extreme heat in the self-cleaning cycle will permanently discolor the oven racks and make them difficult to slide.
If racks become difficult to slide, rub the side rails with wax paper or a cloth containing a small amount of cooking oil. This will help the racks slide more easily in the tracks.
Oven door
Do not allow moisture to enter the door or contact the door gasket during cleaning. Moisture entering the door assembly and or getting on the door gasket will damage the gasket.
The oven door has multiple surfaces that require different cleaning techniques. The gasket on the inside surface of the oven door should never be cleaned or moved to clean other surfaces. The gasket is made of woven material which is essential for a good heat seal.
The inside door surface outside of the gasket should be cleaned by hand with hot, soapy water and a soapy plastic scouring pad. Rinse and dry thoroughly with a clean, soft cloth. Do not get the gasket wet or allow moisture to get inside the door assembly.
The inside door surface inside of the gasket and the inside door glass are cleaned during the oven’s self-cleaning cycle.
The outside door surface is stainless steel and should be cleaned using the instructions on page 52.
The outside glass surface can be cleaned with glass cleaner or warm, soapy water with a thorough rinse. Do not let moisture get inside of the door assembly.
CARE AND CLEANING OF THE COOKTOP

SELF-CLEANING OVEN
The self-cleaning oven uses high temperatures (well above cooking temperatures) to burn off left over grease and residue completely or reduce them to a finely powdered ash that can be wiped away with a damp cloth.
Failure to follow these precautions could result in damage to the oven, fire, and/or personal injury.
- Do not leave small children unattended near the range during a self-cleaning cycle. The outside surfaces of the range can get extremely hot.
- Some birds are extremely sensitive to fumes from a self-cleaning oven. Relocate birds to a well-ventilated room away from the range.
- Do not line the oven, oven racks, or oven bottom with aluminum foil. Doing so will result in poor heat distribution, produce poor baking results, and cause permanent damage to the oven interior. The aluminum foil will melt onto and adhere to the interior oven surfaces.
- Do not force the oven door open during the self cleaning cycle. It will damage the automatic door-locking system. The door automatically locks when the self- cleaning cycle is started and stays locked until the cycle is cancelled and the oven temperature is below 392 °F.
- Be careful opening the oven door after a self-cleaning cycle. The oven will still be VERY HOT and hot air and steam might escape when the door is opened.
Before a self-cleaning cycle
Remove the racks. Leaving the oven racks in the oven during a self-cleaning cycle will discolor the oven racks and make them difficult to slide in and out of position.
- Make sure the door lock feature is turned off and the oven is cool. If they are not, the self-cleaning cycle will not start.
Do NOT use the surface burners while the oven is operating in the self clean
Before a self-cleaning, check whether the door is locked
- A blinking Lock icon indicates the oven door is in the process of being locked.
- When the Lock icon is on, the oven door is locked.
- When Loc is shown in the display, it indicates the door lock feature is on. Press and hold the Start/Set pad for 3 seconds to unlock the oven controls.
How to set the oven for self-cleaning
1. Make sure the oven door is completely closed.
2. Press the Self Clean pad on the oven control panel.
Press the pad once for a 2-hour cleaning cycle, twice for a 3-hour cleaning cycle, or three times for a 4-hour cleaning cycle.
Pressing the pad a fourth time will reselect the 2-hour default time.
The display will show Clean, and the Start indicator will blink under the selected cleaning cycle time.
3. Press the Start Pad to start the cycle.
The display will show Clean and the selected cleaning cycle time, and the Lock icon will blink until the door is locked. Then the Lock icon will stay on until the cycle is over and the oven temperature is below 392 °F (200 °C).
The oven temperature will rise and hold the preset self-clean temperature for the duration of the selected cleaning cycle. The display will count down the cleaning cycle in minutes and hours.
When the time elapses, the oven will turn off and beep 6 times. End will show in the display and the Lock icon will blink. When the oven temperature falls below 392 °F C), the door unlocks and the Lock icon turns off.

The display will show the Delay Start time and the Lock icon. The oven door lock will engage automatically.
When the start time is reached, the oven will turn on automatically and start the programmed cleaning cycle.
How to cancel self-cleaning
You may find it necessary to stop or interrupt the self-cleaning cycle due to excessive smoke or fire in the oven.
- Press the Clear/Off pad.
The oven will turn off. The Lock icon will blink under the current time of day on the display. When the oven temperature falls below 392 °F (200 °C), the oven door unlocks and the Lock icon turns off.
After self-cleaning
Be careful opening the oven door after a self-cleaning cycle. The oven is still very hot when the door unlocks. Escaping hot air and/or steam could burn you.
- The internal oven temperature must be below 392 °F (200 °C), for the automatic door lock to disengage. The door lock must be disengaged before another cooking function can be set.
- After the oven has cooled, wipe down the oven surfaces with a damp cloth to remove any ash residue.
- Stubborn spots can be cleaned with a soap-filled steel-wool pad. Lime deposits can be removed with a cloth soaked in vinegar. Rinse thoroughly after cleaning.
- If the oven is not clean after one cycle, repeat the cycle. If the oven is still hot, HOT will appear on the display until the oven is cool enough to start a new cycle.
- Self-cleaning does not operate within 2 hours after running the self-cleaning cycle.
