4.8 Cu. Ft. Freestanding Gas Convection Range with Steam Cleaning
Before you begin using your range
Before turning on the burners or oven:
• Remove all packaging materials.
• Wipe the surfaces of your range with a damp cloth or sponge, then dry with a clean, dry cloth.
When you turn on a burner or the oven for the first time, smoke and odors may be emitted. This is normal. Make sure that
the room is well ventilated.
ADDITIONAL SURFACE BURNER WARNINGS
Follow the surface burner warnings in SURFACE BURNER WARNINGS
on page 9. In addition, follow these warnings:
• The burner head can be blocked by food or dust. Clean the head if it appears blocked. If you clean the head with water,
assemble it only after it is completely dry. If the head is wet, it might prevent the burners from igniting.
• Do not pour water on the cooktop for cleaning. It can get inside the range and cause the parts inside to rust.
• Only ignite the cooktop burners with the burner caps in place. If the burner caps are not in place, you can damage the
controls or cause an unintended large or dangerous flame.
• Always use the LITE position when igniting the top burners. Make sure that the burners have ignited.
• If ignition fails, turn the knob to OFF and wait until the gas already emitted has dissipated. If you keep the knob in the
LITE position without proper ignition, the emitted gas might cause an explosion.
• Heating of beverages can result in delayed eruptive boiling. To prevent delayed eruptive boiling, ALWAYS allow heated
beverages to stand at least 20 seconds after you have turned the burner off so that the temperature in the liquid can
stabilize.
• After turning on a surface burner, check to make sure that the burner has ignited. Adjust the level of the flame by
turning the burner knob.
• Adjust the top burner flame size so it does not extend beyond the edge of the cookware. Flames that extend past
cookware edges can be hazardous.
• To decrease spattering when cooking foods with lots of liquid, such as meat sauce or stew, adjust the flame to low and
stir frequently.
• When you set a burner to simmer, do not turn the burner knob quickly. Watch the flame to make sure it stays on.
Tips for saving gas
• Use dark-colored or enamel-coated cookware in the oven because the heat transmission is better.
• Before cooking, preheat the oven if the recipe calls for preheating.
• Do not open the oven door frequently during cooking to maintain the oven temperature and save energy.
• Try to cook more than one dish in the oven at the same time whenever possible.
• If you plan to cook more than one dish, cook them one after another. The oven will already be hot.
• Defrost frozen dishes before cooking them.
• Use pots and pans with covers for cooking.
• Select the burner that most closely matches the size of the bottom of the pot you are using. Always select the correct
pot size for your dishes. Larger pots require more gas.
