Oven vent/cooling vent

The cooling vents are located at the back of the oven range. Proper air circulation prevents combustion problems and ensures good performance.

• Do not block the vent or its surroundings.
• Use caution when placing items near the vent. Hot steam can cause them to overheat or melt.

Cooktop

• STEP 1: Put all ingredients into a cooking container (pan, pot, etc).
• STEP 2: Place the container on a surface burner.
• STEP 3: Ignite the surface burner.

Gas burners

• Each burner has a corresponding knob that lets you to set the flame level from LO to HI. In addition, each burner knob has a Lite setting. Turning a knob to Lite ignites the corresponding burner. The burner indicators are located above each knob and show which burner the knob controls. Each burner is designed for specific cooking purposes. See the table below.

Ignition

Make sure all surface burners are properly installed. To light a burner:

1. Push in the control knob, and then turn it to the Lite position. You will hear a “clicking” sound indicating the electronic ignition system is working properly.
2. After the surface burner lights, turn the control knob to shift it out of the Lite position and turn off the electronic ignition system.
3. Turn the control knob to adjust the flame level.

Manual ignition: If there is a power failure, you can ignite the burner manually. Use caution when doing this.

1. Hold a long gas grill lighter to the surface burner you want to light.
2. Push in the control knob for that burner, and then turn it to the Lite position. Turn on the grill lighter to ignite the burner.
3. After the burner is lit, turn the control knob to adjust the flame level.

Flame level

• The flames on the burners should always stay under the cookware, and should not extend beyond the cookware bottom at any time.
• WARNING
  • Flames larger than the cookware bottom may result in a fire or physical injury.
  • When you set a burner to simmer, do not turn the burner knob quickly. Watch the flame to make sure it stays on.
  • After turning on a surface burner, make sure that the burner has ignited. Adjust the level of the flame by turning the burner knob.
  • Always turn off the surface burner controls before removing cookware. All surface burner controls should be turned OFF when you are not cooking.
  • Always turn the burners off before you go to sleep or go out.
  • If you smell gas, turn off the gas to the range and call a qualified service technician. NEVER use an open flame to locate a leak.

Cookware

Requirements

• Flat bottom and straight sides.
• Tight-fitting lid.
• Well-balanced with the handle weighing less than the main portion of the pot or pan.

Material characteristics

• Aluminum: An excellent heat conductor. Some types of food may cause the aluminum to darken. However, anodized aluminum cookware resists staining and pitting.
• Copper: An excellent heat conductor but discolors easily.
• Stainless steel: A slow heat conductor with uneven cooking performance, but is durable, easy to clean, and resists staining.
• Cast-Iron: A poor conductor but retains heat very well.
• Enamelware: Heating characteristics depend on the base material.
• Glass: A slow heat conductor. Use only glass cookware that is specified for range top cooking or oven use.

Size limitations - CAUTION

• Use the rear burners for a small pan or pot with a bottom diameter of about 6 inches or less.
• Do not use an oversized pan. The burner flames may spread out, causing damage nearby.
• Always make sure cookware handles are turned to the side or rear of the cooktop and not over other surface burners. This will minimize the chance of burns, spillovers, and the ignition of flammable materials that can be caused if pots or pans are bumped accidently.
• When using glass cookware, make sure it is designed for range top cooking.
• Never leave plastic items on the cooktop. Hot air from the vent can melt or ignite plastic items or cause build up of dangerous pressure in closed plastic containers. You may get severe burns if you touch the surfaces near the vent while the oven is operating.
• Make sure you hold the handle of a wok or a small one-handled pot while cooking.

Griddle

• The coated griddle provides an extra cooking surface. This is useful especially when cooking meat, pancakes, or other foods requiring a large cooking area.
• The griddle can be used only with the center burner instead of the center grate. Use caution when putting the griddle on the center burner.

In most cases, you should preheat the griddle before cooking. See the table below.

CAUTION

• Do not remove the griddle until the cooktop grates, surfaces, and griddle itself cool down.
• If you leave the griddle on the cooktop, it may become very hot when you use the cooktop or oven. Use oven gloves when placing or removing the griddle.
• Do not overheat the griddle. This can damage the coating of the griddle.
• Do not use metal utensils that can damage the griddle surface.
• Do not use the griddle for other purposes, for example, as a cutting board or a storage shelf.
• Do not cook excessively greasy foods. The grease may spill over.

NOTE

• You may need to adjust heat settings for the griddle over time.
• The griddle may discolor over time as it becomes seasoned with use.
• Do not let rust remain on the griddle. If rust appears on the griddle, remove it as soon as possible.

Gas oven

• STEP 1: Put all ingredients in a heat-safe container.
• STEP 2: Select a cooking mode, and then start preheating.
• STEP 3: Place the container on a rack.
• STEP 4: Close the door and start cooking.

Using the oven racks

The rack positions

• Your oven range comes with 2 racks and 7 rack positions. The rack positions are delineated by rack guides which support the racks. Each rack guide has a stop that prevents the rack from loosening during the oven's operation. Each rack has stoppers that need to be placed correctly on the rack guides. The stoppers prevent the racks from accidently coming out of the oven completely when you pull the racks out.

Inserting and removing an oven rack

To insert an oven rack

1. Place the rear end of the rack on a rack guide.
2. Slide the rack into the rack guide while holding the front end of the rack.

To remove an oven rack

1. Pull out the rack until it stops.
2. Pull up the front end of the rack and remove it from the rack guide.

Rack and Pan placement

• Centering the baking pans in the oven as much as possible will produce better results. If baking with more than 1 pan, place the pans so each has at least 1" to 1½" of air space around it.
• When baking on a single oven rack, place the oven rack in position 3 or 4. See the figure on the left.
• When baking cakes and cookies on multiple racks, place the oven racks in positions 3 and 5. See the figure on the left.

Using Multiple Oven Racks

Cooking mode

WARNING

• Make sure the control panel turns off and all surfaces of the range are cool before cleaning. Otherwise, you can get burned.
• If the range has been moved away from the wall, make sure the Anti-Tip device is reinstalled properly when the range has been put into place again. Otherwise, the range may tip over, causing physical injuries.
• Do not use steel-wool or abrasive cleansers of any kind. These can scratch or damage the surface.

Stainless steel surface

1. Remove any spills, spots, and grease stains using a soft, wet cloth.
2. Apply an approved stainless steel cleanser to a cloth or paper towel.
3. Clean one small area at a time, rubbing with the grain of the stainless steel if applicable.
4. When done, dry the surface using a soft, dry cloth.
5. Repeat steps 2 through 4 as many times as necessary.

CAUTION

• Do not use a steel-wool pad or abrasive cleanser on stainless steel surfaces. It will scratch the surface.
• Do not spray any type of cleanser into the manifold holes. The ignition system is located in those holes and must be kept free of moisture.

Racks

• To keep the racks clean, remove them from the cavity, and soak them in lukewarm soapy water. Then, scour soil off of the racks using a plastic scouring pad. If the racks do not slide in and out smoothly after you have cleaned them, rub the side rail guides with wax paper or a cloth containing a few drops of cooking oil. This will help the racks glide more easily on their tracks.

NOTE

• Do not put the racks in a dishwasher.
• If a rack does not slide in and out smoothly, apply a few drops of cooking oil to the oven rack guides.
• If a rack becomes too difficult to slide in or out, lubricate the rack with graphite lubricant.
• To purchase the graphite lubricant, contact us at 1-800-SAMSUNG (726-7864).
• For online shopping, visit http://www.samsungparts.com/Default.aspx and search for part DG81-01629A.

CAUTION

• Do not leave the racks in the oven during the self-cleaning cycle. The extreme heat generated in this cycle can permanently peel off the rack coating and make it difficult to slide the racks on the guide rails.
• Do not spray cooking oil or lubricant directly onto the racks.

Door

Do not remove the inner gasket of the oven door for cleaning.

Door inner side

• Inner surface: Clean the inner side of the door manually using a soapy plastic scouring pad, and then wipe with a dry cloth. Take care not to get the gasket wet or allow moisture into the door.

• The porcelain-enameled cooktop surface needs to be kept clean. We recommend that you remove food spills immediately after they take place.

1. Turn off all surface burners.
2. Wait until all burner grates and griddle cool down, and then remove them.
3. Clean the cooktop surface using a soft cloth. If food spills run into gaps of the burner components, remove the burner cap and the head, and wipe up the spills.
4. When cleaning is finished, reinsert the burner components, and then put the burner grates and griddle back into position.

CAUTION

• Do not use a steel-wool pad or abrasive cleaner, which can scratch or damage the enamel surface.
• Do not remove the cooktop surface to clean it. The gas lines leading to the burner manifolds can be damaged, resulting in a fire or system failure.
• Do not pour water into the cooktop well while cleaning the cooktop. This could leak down into the range gas and electrical systems creating a risk of electrical shock or high levels of carbon monoxide due to corrosion of the gas valves or ports.
• Keep oven vent ducts unobstructed. Clean vents frequently to avoid grease buildup.

Burner grates and components: Turn off all surface burners and make sure they have all cooled down.

1. Remove the center burner griddle(C) following both sides grates.(L/R)
2. Remove the burner caps from the burner heads.
3. Remove the burner heads from the valve manifolds to reveal the starter electrodes.
4. Clean all removable grates, griddle and burner components in warm, soapy water. Do not use steel-wool pads or abrasive cleaners.
5. Rinse and dry grates, griddle and burner components thoroughly.
6. Return the burner heads to their positions on top of the manifold valves. Make sure a starter electrode is inserted through the hole in each burner head. NOTE See the next page for detailed burner component re-assembly instructions
7. Return the burner caps to their positions on top of the burner heads. To ensure proper and safe operation, make sure the burner caps lie flat on top of the burner heads.
8. Reinstall the burner grates and griddle in their respective positions.
9. Turn on each burner and check if it operates properly. After verifying that a burner operates normally, turn it off.

NOTE

• After cleaning, confirm that the burner port openings aren't plugged.
• Do not wash any burner components in a dish washer.

CAUTION

• The starter electrodes are not removable. Do not attempt to remove them by force.
• To avoid chipping, do not bang grates and caps against each other or against hard surfaces, such as cast iron cookware.
• The burner spreader can be blocked by food or dust. Clean the spreader if it appears blocked. If you clean the spreader with water, assemble it only after it is completely dry. If the spreader is wet, it might prevent the burners from igniting.
• To avoid falling down the grates, make sure to remove both sides grates first.

CAUTION: Make sure all burner components (heads and caps) are reinstalled properly. They will be stable and rest flat when correctly installed.

Self-cleaning

This self-cleaning oven uses high temperatures (well above cooking temperatures) to burn off leftover grease and residue completely or reduce them to a finely powdered ash that you can wipe away with a damp cloth.

CAUTION

• Do not leave small children unattended near the range during the 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. This will damage the automatic door-locking system. The door automatically locks when the selfcleaning cycle is started and stays locked until the cycle is cancelled and the oven temperature is below 400 °F.
• Use caution when opening the oven door after the self-cleaning cycle. The gas oven will still be VERY HOT and hot air and steam might escape when the door is open.
• Wipe off any excess spillage before using the self-cleaning operation.
• Do not use oven cleaners. Commercial oven cleaners or oven liners should NEVER be used in or around any part of the oven. Residue from oven cleaners will damage the inside of the oven during a self-cleaning operation.

Removing and reinstalling the oven door

How to remove the door

1. Open the door completely.
2. Pull the hinge locks down toward the door frame to the unlocked position.

3. Firmly grasp both sides of the door at the top.

4. Close the door to the door removal position, which is approximately 5 degrees from vertical (Fig. 1).

5. Lift the door up and out until the hinge arms are clear of the slots (Fig. 2).

How to reinstall the door

1. Firmly grasp both sides of the door at the top.
