USING THE RANGE

In Case of a Power Failure

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.

Surface Burners

Lighting a Surface Burner

Burners should be operated only when covered by cookware. Burner flames not covered by cookware present a risk of fire or clothing ignition. Never let flames 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 find 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 flame size.

Push the control knob in and turn it to the LITE position.

Selecting a Flame Size

Watch the flame, not the knob, as you adjust heat. When rapid heating is desired, the flame 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.

Using the Surface Burners

NOTES:

• Do not operate the burner for an extended period of time without cookware on the grate. The finish 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 flexibility 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.

Types of Surface Burners

Multi-Ring Burner (some models)

For large cookware, activate all rings by setting set the burner between Hi and Med.

For small cookware or low heating applications, only activate the inner rings by setting the burner between Lo and Sim.

Side View Of The Multi-Ring Burner Knob

Dual Oval Burner (some models)

For small cookware, only activate the round burner.

When using a griddle, activate both the oval and round burner sections.

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 fitting 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.

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.

Griddle (on some models)

Fire Hazard

• Use care when cooking greasy foods. Spilled grease may result in fire
• 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 fire
• Place and remove the griddle only when griddle is cool and all surface burners are turned OFF.

Using Your Cast Iron Griddle

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 first 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 fire hazard. Clean under the griddle with hot. soapy water as soon as it is cool.

Positioning Your Griddle

The cast-iron griddle can only be used over the center burner(s) 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(s) until you are certain the griddle has been positioned correctly.

Preheating Your Griddle

For models with a non-reversible griddle. preheat your griddle by setting both center burners to 4 for 5-10 minutes before placing food on the griddle. For models with a reversible griddle. preheat your griddle by setting your center burner to Hi for 5-10 minutes before placing food on the griddle. Once the griddle is preheated. turn the knob on the burner(s) to the cook setting outlined in the table.

CARE AND CLEANING

Range – Exterior

Be sure all controls are off and all surfaces are cool before cleaning any part of the range.

If your range is removed for cleaning, servicing or any reason, be sure the anti-tip device is reengaged properly when the range is replaced. Failure to take this precaution could result in tipping of the range and can result in death or serious burns to children or adults.

Removal of Surface Burners for Cleaning

Turn all controls OFF. Allow cooktop to cool before removing grates and burner parts. When removing the burner caps and heads, remember their size and location. Replace them in the same location after cleaning.

Do not attempt to remove oval or dual oval burner caps from the burner heads.

Cleaning the Surface Burners

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 as 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 flame. Clogged or dirty burner ports or electrodes will not allow the burner to operate properly.

Replacing Surface Burners

Before replacing the burner cap, head and oven 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 all burner parts and grates in place. Any spill on or around an electrode must be carefully cleaned. Avoid hitting the electrode with anything hard or it could be damaged.

The electrode of the spark igniter is exposed when the burner head is removed. When one burner is turned to LITE, all the burners spark. Do not attempt to disassemble or clean around any burner while another burner is on.

Burner Grates

Manual Cleaning

Grates should be washed in hot, soapy water and rinsed with clean water. 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 difficult to slide.

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 configuration.
