BEFORESETTINGSURFACECONTROLS
Control locations of the gas surface burners
Your built-in range is equipped with gas surface burners
with different BTU ratings. The ability to heat food
quicker and in larger volumes increases as the burner
size increases.
The small SIMMER burner is best used for simmering
delicate sauces, etc. This burner is located at the right
rear burner position on the cooktop (see Figures 1).
The STANDARD burner can be used for most surface
cooking needs. The standard burners are located at the
left front and left rear positions on the cooktop (see
Figures 1).
The POWER burners are best used for bringing large
quantities of liquid rapidly up to temperature or when
preparing larger quantities of food. The POWER burner
is located at the right front position on the cooktop (see
Figures 1).
Regardless of size, always select cookware that is suitable
for the amount and type of food being prepared. Select a
burner and ame size appropriate to the pan. Never allow
ames to extend beyond the outer edge of the pan.
Figure 1
Assemblyofthesurfaceburnercapsand
burner grates
It is very important to make sure that all of the Surface
Burner Caps and Surface Burner Grates are installed
correctly and at the correct locations.
1. Remove all packing material from cooktop area.
2. Discard all packing material (if applicable).
3. Unpack Burner Grates and position on the cooktop.
REMEMBER — DO NOT ALLOW SPILLS, FOOD,
CLEANING AGENTS OR ANY OTHER MATERIAL
TO ENTER THE GAS ORIFICE HOLDER OPENING.
Always keep the Burner Caps and Burner Heads in place
whenever the surface burners are in use.

SETTING SURFACE CONTROLS
IMPORTANT
In the event of an electrical power outage, the surface
burners can be lit manually. To light a surface burner,
hold a lit match to the burner head, then slowly turn
the surface control knob to LITE. After burner lights
turn the knob to desired setting. Use caution when
lighting surface burners manually.
IMPORTANT
Never extend the ame beyond the outer edge of the
utensil. A higher ame simply wastes heat and energy,
and increases the risk of being burned by the gas
ame.
Operatingthegassurfacecontrols
1. Place cooking utensil on surface burner.
2. Push the surface control knob down and turn
counterclockwise out of the OFF position.
3. Release the knob and rotate to the LITE position
(see gures 1 & 2). Note: All four electronic surface
ignitors will spark at the same time. However, only the
burner you are turning on will ignite.
4. Visually check that the burner has a ame.
5. Turn the control knob counterclockwise to the
desired ame size. The control knobs do not have to
be set at a particular setting. Use the knob indicator
settings to adjust the ame as needed. DO NOT cook
with the surface control knob in the LITE position.
(The electronic ignitor will continue to spark if the
knob is left in the LITE position.)
Figure 1
Settingpropersurfaceburneramesize
For most cooking - start on the highest control
setting and then turn to a lower one to complete the
process. Use the recommendations below as a guide
for determining proper ame size for various types
of cooking. The size and type of utensil used and the
amount of food being cooked will inuence the setting
needed.
IncorrectCorrect
CAUTION
Donotplaceplasticitemssuchassaltandpepper
shakers,spoonholdersorplasticwrappingson
topoftherangewhenitisinuse. These items could
melt or ignite. Pot holders, towels or wood spoons could
catch re if placed too close to a ame.
CAUTION
Donotoperatetheburnerforanextendedperiodof
time without cookware on the grate. The nish on the
grate may chip without cookware to absorb the heat.
*FlameSize TypeofCooking
High Flame Start most foods; bring water to a boil;
pan broiling.
Medium Flame Maintain a slow boil; thicken sauces,
gravies; steaming.
Low Flame Keep foods cooking; poach; stewing.
NOTE
*Note:Settingsarebasedonusingmedium-
weightmetaloraluminumpans.Settingsmay
varywhenusingothertypesofpans.The color
of the ame is the key to proper burner adjustment. A
good ame is clear, blue and hardly visible in a well-
lighted room. Each cone of ame should be steady and
sharp. Clean burner if ame is yellow-orange.

componentshavecooleddown.
Aircirculationintheoven
If using 1 rack, place in center of oven. If using multiple
racks, stagger cookware as shown.
For best air circulation and baking results allow 2-4"
(5-10 cm) around the cookware for proper air circulation
and be sure pans and cookware do not touch each other,
the oven door, sides or back of the oven cavity. The hot
air must circulate around the pans and cookware in the
oven for even heat to reach around the food.

SettingBroil
This mode is best for meats, sh and poultry up to 1”
thick. Broiling is a method of cooking tender cuts of meat
by direct heat under the broil element of the oven. The
high heat cooks quickly and gives a rich, brown outer ap-
pearance. The BROILpad controls the Broil feature. An
optional Searing Grill, Broiler Pan and Insert are available
via the enclosed accessories brochure (Figure 1 & 2). The
optional broil pan and broil pan insert used together allow
dripping grease to drain and be kept away from the high
heat of the oven broiler.
BroilingTips:
For optimum browning, preheat the broil element for 5
minutes.
Broil one side until the food is browned; turn and cook
on the second side. Season and serve.
Always pull the rack out to the “stop” position before
turning or removing food.
Always use the broiler pan and its cover when broiling.
It allows the dripping grease to be kept away from the
high heat of the broil element (see Figure 1).
For best broiling results, alwaysbroilwiththeoven
door close.
If using a Searing Grill (available by mail order), preheat
the grill for 5 to 10 minutes before placing your meat.

broil setting. Select the LO broil setting to avoid excess
browning or drying of foods that should be cooked to
the well-done stage.
4. Place grid on the broiler pan, then place the food on
the grid. DO NOT use the broiler pan without the grid
or cover the grid with aluminum foil. The exposed fat
could ignite.
5. Place the pan on the oven rack. Close the oven door
when broiling.
6. Broil on one side until food is browned; turn and cook
on the second side. Note: Always pull the rack out to

RecalibratingYourOvenTemperature
Recalibrating Your Oven Temperature
The temperature in the oven has been set at the factory.
When rst using the oven, be sure to follow recipe times
and temperatures. If you think the oven is too hot or too
cool, the temperature in the oven can be adjusted. Before
adjusting, test a recipe by using a temperature setting
that is higher or lower than recommended temperature.
The baking results should help you to decide how much
of an adjustment is needed.
ToAdjustOvenTemperature:
1. Push the BAKE pad.
2. Set the temperature to 550°F (287°C) by pushing
and holding the UP ARROW pad.
3. Within 2 seconds, push and hold the BAKE pad
until the special 2 digit display appears. Release the
BAKE pad. The display now indicates the amount
of degrees offset between the original factory

WhattoExpectduringCleaning
While the oven is in operation, the oven heats to temperatures
much higher than those used in normal cooking. Sounds
of metal expansion and contraction are normal. Odor is
also normal as the food soil is being removed. Smoke may
appear through the oven vent.
If heavy spillovers are not wiped up before cleaning, they
may ame and cause more smoke and odor than usual. This
is normal and safe and should not cause alarm. If available,
use an exhaust fan during the self-cleaning cycle.
Self-cleaning
A self-cleaning oven cleans itself with high temperatures
(well above normal cooking temperatures) which
eliminate soils completely or reduces them to a ne
powdered ash you can wipe away with a damp cloth.

CAUTION
To avoid possible burns use care when opening the
oven door after the Self-Cleaning cycle. Stand to the
side of the oven when opening the door to allow hot air
or steam to escape.
During the Self-Cleaning cycle, the outside of the range
can become very hot to the touch. DO NOT leave
small children unattended near the appliance.
The health of some birds is extremely sensitive to the
fumes given off during the Self-Cleaning cycle of any
range. Move birds to another well-ventilated room.
DO NOT line the oven walls, racks, bottom or any
other part of the range with aluminum foil. Doing
so will destroy heat distribution, produce poor baking
results and cause permanent damage to the oven
interior (aluminum foil will melt to the interior surface
of the oven).
DO NOT force the oven door open. This can damage
the automatic door locking system. Use caution when
opening the door after the Self-Cleaning cycle is
completed. The oven may still be VERY HOT.
IMPORTANT
Adheretothefollowingcleaningprecautions:
• DONOTuse oven cleaners or oven protective
coatings in or around any part of the oven interior.
• DONOT clean the oven door gasket. The woven
material of the oven door gasket is essential for a
good seal. Care should be taken not to rub, damage
or remove the gasket.
• DONOT use any cleaning materials on the oven
door gasket. Doing so could cause damage.
Removethebroilerpanandinsert,allutensils
and ANY ALUMINUM FOIL. These items cannot
withstandhighcleaningtemperaturesandwillmelt.
CompletelyremoveALLOVENRACKSand
ANYACCESSORIES.Iftheovenracksarenot
removed,theywilllosetheirspecialcoating
propertiesandwillnolongerslideinandout
oftheovencavityeffortlessly.
Removeanyexcessivespillovers in the oven
cavity before starting the Self-Cleaning cycle. To
clean, use hot, soapy water and a cloth. Large
spillovers can cause heavy smoke or re when
subjected to high temperatures. DO NOT allow food
spills with a high sugar or acid content (such as milk,
tomatoes, sauerkraut, fruit juices or pie lling) to
remain on the surface as they may leave a dull spot
even after cleaning.
Clean any soil from the oven frame, the door liner
outside the oven door gasket and the small area at
the front center of the oven bottom. These areas heat
sufciently to burn soil on. Clean with soap and water.
