self-clean temperatures may lead to a burst of ame
from the oven. Failure to follow this instruction may
result in severe burns.
WARNING
COOKTOP SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
■ Never leave the surface burners unattended at
medium or high heat settings. Foods, especially oily
foods, may ignite resulting in re that could spread
to surrounding cabinets.
■ Never leave oil unattended while frying. If allowed
to heat beyond its smoking point, oil may ignite
resulting in re that may spread to surrounding
cabinets. Use a deep fat thermometer whenever
possible to monitor oil temperature.
■ To avoid oil spillover and fire, use the minimum
amount of oil when using a shallow pan-frying
and avoid cooking frozen foods with excessive
amounts of ice.
■ Use proper pan size and avoid pans that are
unstable or easily tipped. Select cookware that is
matched to the size of the burner. Burner ames
should be adjusted so that they do not extend
beyond the bottom of the pan. Excessive ame may
be hazardous.
■ Always use the LITE position when igniting the top
burners and make sure the burners have ignited.
■ When using glass/ceramic cookware, make sure it
is suitable for cooktop service; others may break

In Case of a Power Failure
Surface Burners
USING THE RANGE: In Case of a Power Failure / Surface Burners
In the event of a power failure, the oven is inoperable
and no attempt should be made to operate it. However,
the surface burners may be lit with a match. Using
extreme caution, hold a lit match near the ports beneath
the surface burner cap, then slowly turn the knob to the
LITE position. Once lit, surface burners will continue to
operate normally.
Lighting a Surface Burner
WARNING
Burners should be operated only
when covered by cookware. Burner ames not
covered by cookware present a risk of re or
clothing ignition. Never let ames extend beyond the
sides of the cookware. Failure to comply may result
in serious injury.
Make sure all burners are in their correct locations and
fully assembled before attempting to operate any burner.
Select a burner and nd its control knob. Push the knob
in and turn it to the LITE position.
You will hear a clicking noise—
the sound of the electric spark
igniting the burner. When one
burner is turned to LITE, all
burners will spark. Sparking will
continue as long as the knob
remains at LITE. Once gas is
ignited, turn the knob to adjust
the ame size.
Using the Surface Burners
NOTES:
■ Do not operate the burner for an extended period of
time without cookware on the grate. The nish on the
grate may discolor or chip without cookware to absorb
the heat.
■ Do not attempt to disassemble any burner while another
burner is on. Damage to the product may occur.
■ Be sure the burners and grates are cool before you
place your hand, a pot holder or cleaning materials
on them.
Your rangetop has sealed gas burners that offer
convenience, cleanability and exibility for a wide range
of cooking applications.
The smallest burner is the simmer burner. A simmer
burner turned down to LO provides precise cooking
performance for foods such as delicate sauces that
require low heat for a long cooking time.
The extra-large burner is designed to quickly bring
large amounts of liquid to a boil. Some models have a
POWER BOIL™ setting especially designed for use with
cookware with a diameter of 11 inches or larger.
Selecting a Flame Size
Watch the ame, not the knob, as you adjust heat. When
rapid heating is desired, the ame size should match the
size of the cookware you are using. Flames larger than
the bottom of the cookware will not heat faster and may
be hazardous.
Push the control knob in and
turn it to the LITE position.
Types of Surface Burners
Round Burner
Use this burner for general cooking purposes.
Size cookware appropriately to the ames.
Oval Burner (on some models)
Use this burner to cook on the griddle.
These ames are too large for the pot

Surface Burners (Cont.)
USING THE RANGE: Surface Burners
Stove Top Grills
Do not use an after-market stove top grill on your
gas surface burners. A stove top grill will cause
incomplete combustion resulting in carbon monoxide
levels above allowable standards. This could be
hazardous to your health.
Using a Wok
Use only a flat-bottomed wok with a diameter of 14 inches
or less. Make sure the wok bottom sits flat on the grate.
Do not use a wok support ring. Placing the ring over the
burner or grate may cause the burner to work improperly,
resulting in carbon monoxide levels above allowable
standards. This could be hazardous to your health.
Use a at-bottomed wok.
Do not use stove top grills
Top-of-Range Cookware
Aluminum: Medium-weight cookware is recommended
because it heats quickly and evenly. Most foods brown
evenly in an aluminum skillet. Use saucepans with tight-
tting lids when cooking with minimum amounts of water.
Stainless Steel: This metal alone has poor heating
properties and is usually combined with copper,
aluminum or other metals for improved heat distribution.
Combination metal skillets usually work satisfactorily if
they are used with medium heat or as the manufacturer
recommends.
Cast-Iron: If heated slowly, most skillets will give
satisfactory results.
Enamelware: Under some conditions, the enamel
of some cookware may melt. Follow the cookware
manufacturer’s recommendations for cooking methods.
Glass: There are two types of glass cookware—those
for oven use only and those for top-of-range cooking
(saucepans, coffee and teapots). Glass conducts heat
very slowly.
Heatproof Glass Ceramic: Can be used for either
surface or oven cooking. It conducts heat very
slowly and cools very slowly. Check the cookware
manufacturer’s directions to be sure it can be used on
gas ranges.

USING THE RANGE: Griddle
Griddle (on some models)
WARNING
Fire Hazard
■ Use care when cooking greasy foods. Spilled grease may result in re.
■ Never place any items on the griddle when it is not in use. Heat from surrounding burners can heat
the griddle and may result in re.
■ Place and remove the griddle only when griddle is cool and all surface burners are turned OFF.
Positioning Your Griddle
The reversible cast-iron griddle (on some models) and the nonstick aluminum griddle (on some models) can only be
used over the center burner of the rangetop. To position the griddle, remove the center grate (if present), and replace
it with the griddle. Do not turn on the center burner until you are certain the griddle has been positioned correctly.
Preheating Your Griddle
If your center burner is a single oval burner, preheat your griddle for 2-5 minutes on Hi before placing food on the
griddle. If your center burner is a dual oval burner, preheat your griddle for 5-10 minutes on Hi before placing food on
the griddle. Once the griddle is preheated, turn the heat down to the cook setting outlined in the table corresponding
to your griddle. To determine the type of burner you have, see the Types of Surface Burners section.
Using Your Reversible Cast-Iron Griddle (on some models)
The ribbed side of the reversible griddle can be used for
food normally grilled.
Your griddle provides an extra-large cooking surface for
meats, pancakes and other foods usually prepared in
a skillet. Before rst use, rinse with hot water and dry
thoroughly. Prepare the surface with cooking spray or
vegetable oil.
Griddle Precautions:
■ Do not place the griddle in a microwave oven.
■ Do not clean your griddle in the dishwasher.
■ If something has spilled under the griddle, it should be
cleaned up as soon as possible to prevent “baked on”
food soil.
■ Do not allow grease to accumulate under the griddle
as it can be a re hazard. Clean under the griddle with
hot, soapy water as soon as it is cool.

16 49-2000228 Rev. 0
Your new oven has a variety of cooking modes to help you get the best results. These modes are described below.
Refer to the Cooking Guide section for recommendations for specic foods. Remember, your new oven may perform
differently than the oven it is replacing. NOTE: Remove unused racks from oven and/or broil drawer for faster
preheat, improved efciency, and optimal performance.
Bake
The bake mode is for baking and roasting. This mode
uses heat only from the lower burner. When preparing
baked goods such as cakes, cookies and pastries,
always preheat the oven before inserting food. Follow
recipe recommendations for food placement. If no
guidelines are provided, center food in the oven. To use
this mode, press the Bake pad, use the + and - pads to
adjust the temperature, then press Start.
Broiling Modes
Always broil with the oven door and drawer closed.
Monitor food closely while broiling. Use caution when
broiling on the upper rack positions as placing food
closer to the broil burner increases smoking, spattering,
and the possibility of fats igniting.
Try broiling foods that you would normally grill. Adjust
rack positions to adjust the intensity of the heat to the
food. Place foods closer to the broil burner when a seared
surface and rare interior is desired. Thicker foods and
foods that need to be cooked through should be broiled
on a lower rack position or by using the Broil Lo mode.
Broil Hi
The Broil Hi mode uses intense heat from the upper
burner to sear foods. Use Broil Hi for thinner cuts of meat
and/or foods you prefer less done on the interior. To use
this mode press the Broil pad once and then press Start.
It is not necessary to preheat when using this mode.
Broil Lo
The Broil Lo mode uses less intense heat from the upper
burner to cook food thoroughly while also browning the
surface. Use Broil Lo for thicker cuts of meat and/or foods
that you would like cooked all the way through. To use
this mode press the Broil pad twice and then press Start.
It is not necessary to preheat when using this mode.
Convection Bake (on some models)
The Convection Bake mode is intended for baking
on multiple racks at the same time. This mode uses
air movement from the convection fan to enhance
cooking evenness. Your oven is equipped with Auto
Recipe Conversion, so it is not necessary to adjust the
temperature when using this mode. To use this mode
press the Conv Bake pad, use the + and - pads to
adjust the temperature, and then press Start. Always
preheat when using this mode.
Cookware Guidelines
The material, nish and size of cookware affect baking
performance.
Dark, coated and dull pans absorb heat more readily
than light, shiny pans. Pans that absorb heat more
readily can result in a browner, crisper and thicker crust.
If using dark and coated cookware check food earlier
than the minimum cook time. If undesirable results are
obtained with this type of cookware consider reducing
oven temperature by 25º F next time.
■ Shiny pans can produce more evenly cooked baked
goods such as cakes and cookies.
■ Glass and ceramic pans heat slowly but retain heat
well. These types of pans work well for dishes such
as pies and custards.
■ Air insulated pans heat slowly and can reduce bottom
browning.
■ Keep cookware clean to promote even heating.
Cooking Modes
USING THE RANGE: Cooking Modes / Cookware / Aluminum Foil and Oven Liners
CAUTION
Do not use any type of foil or oven liner to cover the oven bottom. These items can block
airow or melt, resulting in damage to the product and risk of carbon monoxide poisoning, smoke or re.
Damage from improper use of these items is not covered by the product warranty.
Foil may be used to catch spills by placing a sheet on a lower rack, several inches below the food. Do not use more
foil than necessary and never entirely cover an oven rack with aluminum foil. Keep foil at least 1-1/2” from oven walls
to prevent poor heat circulation.
Aluminum Foil and Oven Liners

Oven Racks
UUSING THE RANGE: Oven Racks / Broil Drawer
Rack Positions
Your oven has six rack positions in the main oven.
Recommended rack positions for various types of
foods are provided in the Cooking Guide. Adjusting
the rack position is one way to impact cooking results.
For example, if you would prefer darker tops on cakes,
mufns or cookies, try moving food one rack position
higher. If you nd foods are too brown on top, try moving
them down next time.
When baking with multiple pans and on multiple racks,
ensure there is sufcient space between pans to allow
air to ow. This may improve cooking evenness.
Removing and Replacing Racks
When placing and removing cookware, pull the rack out
to the bump (stop position) on the rack support.
To remove a rack, pull it toward you until it reaches the
stop position, tilt up the front of the rack and pull it out.
To replace a rack, place the curved end of the rack onto
the rack supports. Tilt up the front of the rack and push
the rack in until it stops. Then lay the rack at and push
it in until it is all the way into the oven.
Racks may become difcult to slide, especially after a
self-clean cycle. To improve sliding conditions, use a soft
cloth or paper towel to rub vegetable oil on the left and
right edges of the racks and/or rack supports.
NOTE: Remove unused racks when using the oven for
faster preheat, improved efciency and optimal cooking
performance.
See the Assistance/Accessories section for instructions
on ordering additional racks.
For better searing use the rack position that places food
closest to the broil heater. Move food down or use Broil
Lo mode for more doneness/less searing. In positions
B and C, the broil pan (some models) or rack (some
models) rests on the drawer side supports. In the bottom
position (A), cookware sits directly on the drawer bottom.
Take care not to touch the inner door when placing and
removing food on the drawer bottom.

Do not use oven cleaners, abrasive cleansers, strong
liquid cleansers, steel wool, plastic scouring pads or
cleaning powders on the interior or exterior of the oven.
Clean with mild soap and water or a 50/50 solution of
vinegar and water. Rinse with clean water and dry with a
soft cloth. When cleaning surfaces, make sure that they
are at room temperature and not in direct sunlight.
Spillage of marinades, fruit juices, tomato sauces and
basting liquids containing acids may cause discoloration
and should be wiped up as soon as hot surfaces cool,
then clean and rinse.
Oven
CARE AND CLEANING: Oven
Oven Racks
All oven racks may be cleaned by hand with an abrasive
cleaner or steel wool. Self-clean (black) oven racks may
remain in the oven during the self-clean cycle. Nickel-
plated (silver) racks should not remain in the oven during
the self clean cycle. Doing so will tarnish the racks. If
either type of rack is left in the oven during a self-clean
cycle, the rack may become difcult to slide.
After cleaning the racks, use a soft cloth or paper towel
to rub a small amount of vegetable oil on the left and
right edges of the rack. This will ensure the racks are
easy to slide in and out of the oven
Be sure all controls are off and all surfaces are cool before cleaning any part of the oven.
Oven Interior
The interior of your new oven can be cleaned manually
or by using the Steam Clean or Self Clean modes
(on some models).
Spillage of marinades, fruit juices, tomato sauces and
basting liquids containing acids may cause discoloration
and should be wiped up as soon as hot surfaces cool,
then clean and rinse.
Manual Cleaning
Do not use oven cleaners, strong liquid cleansers, steel
wool, or scouring pads on the interior of the oven. For
soils on the oven bottom and other enameled surfaces,
use a gentle abrasive containing oxalic acid, such as
Bar Keepers Friend®, with a non-scratch sponge. Take
care not to apply any abrasive cleaners or sponges to
the door glass, as it will scratch the reective coating.
The oven interior and door glass may be cleaned using
a soft cloth with a mild soap and water, or vinegar and
water solution. After cleaning, rinse with clean water and
dry with a soft cloth.
Steam Clean Mode (on some models)
CAUTION
During the steam clean cycle, the
oven bottom becomes hot enough to cause burns.
Wait until the cycle is over (30 minutes) before
wiping the inside surfaces of the oven. Failure to do
so may result in burns.
The range should be at room temperature before
beginning the Steam Clean cycle. If the oven is too hot,
“Hot” will appear on the display and the cycle will not
activate until the oven cools down.
The Steam Clean feature is for cleaning light soil from
your oven at a lower temperature than Self Clean.
To use the Steam Clean feature:
1. Start with the oven at room temperature.
2. Wipe excess grease and soils from the oven.
3. Pour one cup of water onto the bottom of the oven.
4. Close and latch the door (on some models).
5. Press the Clean pad twice and then press Start.
Do not open the door during the 30 minute Steam Clean
cycle as it will reduce the cleaning performance. At the
end of the Steam Clean cycle, unlatch and/or open the
door, soak up the remaining water, and wipe the moisture-
softened soil from the oven walls and door. See instructions
in Manual Cleaning for any remaining soils.
Self Clean Mode (on some models)
Read the Self-Cleaning Oven Safety Instructions at the
beginning of this manual before using Self Clean Mode.
Self clean uses very high temperatures to clean the
oven interior. For a moderately soiled oven, run a 3 hour
self clean cycle. For a heavily soiled oven, run a 5 hour
self-clean cycle. Only self-clean (black) racks and grates
may remain in the oven during the self-clean cycle. All
other items, including nickel plated (silver) racks, should
be removed. If nickel plated racks are left in the oven
during a self-clean cycle, the racks will tarnish. If either
type of rack is left in the oven during a self-clean cycle,
the rack may become difcult to slide. See the Oven
Racks section for lubrication instructions.
IMPORTANT: 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.
To use the Self Clean feature:
1. Start with the oven at room temperature.
2. Wipe excess grease and soils from the oven and
interior door.
3. Remove all items other than self-clean (black)
racks and grates, if desired. See Cleaning the
Cooktop to determine if your grates may be self-
cleaned and for important details regarding grate
placement.
4. Close and latch the door
5. Press the Clean pad once and set a time between
3 and 5 hours, and then press Start.
You cannot open the door during the self-clean cycle. If
the oven is too hot, you will not be able to slide the latch.

Cleaning the Burner Caps
Wash burner caps in hot, soapy water and rinse with
clean water. You may scour with a plastic scouring pad
to remove burned-on food particles. The round burner
caps may also be cleaned in your dishwasher.
Cleaning the Burner Heads
Wash the burner heads routinely, especially after bad
spillovers which could clog the burner openings. Lift
burners off when cool. Wash with hot, soapy water.
Rinse with clean water. For more stubborn stains, use a
brush with plastic bristles.
NOTE: Do not use steel wool or scouring pads to clean
the burner parts as these may clog the openings. Never
wash burner heads in your dishwasher. Doing so may
cause them to discolor.
The ports in the burner heads must be kept clean at all
times for an even, unhampered ame.
Clogged or dirty burner ports or electrodes will not allow
the burner to operate properly.
For proper ignition, make sure the small hole in the notch
that ts over the electrode is kept open. A sewing needle
or wire twist-tie works well to unclog it.
Replacing Surface Burners
Before replacing the burner caps, heads and oval head/
cap assembly, shake out excess water and allow them to
dry thoroughly.
Replace burner heads in the correct locations according
to size. Ensure each cap is properly seated on the
burner head, as pictured below.
CAUTION
Do not operate the cooktop without

Griddles (on some models)
Nonstick Aluminum Griddle: Avoid scraping the griddle
surface with metal utensils. Wash your griddle with dish
soap and hot water. If necessary, scrub with a non-
abrasive plastic pad.
Reversible Cast-Iron: Clean your reversible cast-iron
griddle with a stiff brush and hot water. Using soap is
not recommended, and harsh detergents should never
be used as they will remove the seasoning. Rinse with
hot water and dry thoroughly. After rinsing, preseason
the griddle by applying a light coat of cooking oil to the
griddle surface. Wipe off excess oil with a paper towel.
Store in a cool, dry place.
Griddle Precautions:
■ If something has spilled under the griddle, it should
be cleaned up as soon as possible to prevent the spill
from getting baked onto the cooktop.
■ Do not allow grease to accumulate under the griddle
as it can be a re hazard. Clean under the griddle with
hot, soapy water as soon as it is cool.
■ Do not wash your griddle in the dishwasher.
■ Do not clean the griddle in the self-cleaning oven.
Grate Support Bumpers (on some models)
If any of the rubber grate support bumpers in the cooktop

Burner Grates
Manual Cleaning
Grates should be washed in hot, soapy water and
rinsed with clean water or in the dishwasher. To soften
burned-on food, place grates in a solution containing
¼-cup of household ammonia for several hours.
Afterward, scrub grates with a plastic scouring pad
soaked in hot, soapy water. Rinse well and dry.
Self Clean Mode (on some models)
If your grates do not have rubber bumpers on their
bottom surface, they may be cleaned in the oven using
the self-clean cycle. Do not attempt to clean your grates
in the oven if your grates have rubber bumpers. Doing
so will destroy the rubber bumpers and may affect the
function of your surface burners.
Porcelain-coated grates may gradually dull if continually
exposed to self-clean temperatures.
If your oven is equipped with self-clean (black) racks,
it is recommended to follow the instructions for placing
grates on racks. If your oven is equipped with nickel-
plated (silver) racks, it is recommended to follow the
instructions for placing grates on the oven bottom.
Nickel-plated racks should not remain in the oven during
the self clean cycle. Doing so will tarnish the racks. If
either type of rack is left in the oven during a self-clean
cycle, the rack may become difcult to slide. See the
Oven Rack section for lubrication instructions.
NOTE: When placing or removing grates from the oven,
do not slide the grates on the racks or oven bottom. Doing
so could damage the enamel on the racks or oven bottom.
To self-clean your grates on self-clean racks:
1. Insert racks in positions 1, 3, and 5 or positions 2 and 4.
2. Gently place one grate on each rack.
To self clean your grates on the oven bottom:
1. Remove all oven racks.
2. Gently place one grate on the center of the oven
bottom with the grate oriented in the upright position.
Stack remaining grate(s) as shown below. Do not
place or stack grates in any other conguration.
Once the grates are placed in the oven, operate the
self-clean cycle per the instruction in the Cleaning the
Oven section.
NOTE: Use caution when removing the grates from the
oven after the self-clean cycle has ended. The grates
may still be hot.
Once the self-clean cycle is complete, the grates may
carefully be removed. You may notice a white residue on
the grates. Wipe it off with a damp sponge. If white spots
persist, wet the sponge with a 50/50 solution of vinegar
and water and wipe the grates again.
When replacing the grates on the cooktop, be sure to
locate them correctly. Grates should t securely into the
cooktop.

Problem Possible Cause What To Do
My new oven doesn't
cook like my old one.
Your new oven has a different cooking system
from your old oven and therefore may cook
differently than your old oven.
For the rst few uses, follow your recipe times
and temperatures carefully and use rack
positions recommended in the Cooking Guide.
If you still think your new oven is too hot or too
cold, you can adjust the temperature yourself to
meet your specic cooking preference. See the
Special Features section.
Food does not bake
properly
Oven controls improperly set. See the Cooking Modes section.
Rack position is incorrect. See the Cooking Guide.
Rack is not level. See the Installation Instructions for directions
on leveling your range.
Incorrect cookware or cookware of improper size
being used.
See the Cookware section.
Oven temperature needs adjustment. See the Special Features section.
Food does not broil
properly
Oven controls improperly set. Make sure you select the appropriate broil
mode. See the Cooking Guide.
Improper rack position being used. See Cooking Guide for rack position
suggestions.
Cookware not suited for broiling. Use a pan specically designed for broiling.

Range is making a
“clicking” noise when
using my oven.
Your range has been designed to maintain a
tighter control over your oven's temperature. You
may hear your oven's heating elements "click"
on and off more frequently than in older ovens to
achieve better results during baking, broiling, and
self-clean cycles.
This is normal.
Sometimes the oven
takes longer to
preheat to the same
temperature
Cookware, food, and/or number of racks in oven. Cookware, food, and racks in the oven will
cause differences in preheat times. Remove
excess items to reduce preheat time.
