SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Do not store or use gasoline, liquid propane cylinder or other flammable vapors and liquids in
the vicinity of this appliance.
The installation and service of your range must be performed by a qualified installer, an
approved service agency or the gas supplier.
Gas appliances can cause minor exposure to four of these substances, namely benzene,
carbon monoxide, formaldehyde and soot, caused primarily by the incomplete combustion of
natural gas fuel. When operating your range on natural gas, the flames from the burners
should be blue in color. In addition, the flames should be stable, free of yellow tipping,
excessive noise and lifting. However, this yellow tipping should be restricted to the primary
flame kernels only. Properly adjusted burners, indicated by a bluish rather than a yellow
flame, will minimize incomplete combustion. Exposure to those substances can be
minimized by venting with an open window or use of a ventilation fan or hood.
ELECTRICAL GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
IMPORTANT
This indoor cooking appliance is equipped with a three-prong (grounding) plug for your
protection against shock hazard and should be plugged directly into a properly grounded

Oven Function
Natural Airflow Bake occurs when heat is transferred into the oven from the bake
burners in the bottom of the oven cavity. Heat is then circulated by natural airflow.
This is a traditional bake setting.
Infrared Broil
The broil burner is located at the top of the oven. This burner heats the metal screen
until it glows. The glowing screen produces the infrared heat, searing the outside of
broiled foods and sealing in juices.
Convection Bake
Heat is transferred from the bake burners in the bottom of the oven cavity to the oven
cavity itself. The convection fan in the rear of the oven then circulates it. This
convection process provides more even heat distribution throughout the oven cavity.
Multiple rack use is possible for the large baking jobs. Convection cooking is faster,
can be accomplished at lower temperatures and provides more even temperatures
than regular cooking.
Oven Operation
Never cover any slots, holes or passages in the oven bottom or cover an
entire rack with materials such as aluminum foil. Doing so blocks air flow through the
oven and may cause carbon monoxide poisoning. Aluminum foil lining may also trap
heat, causing a fire hazard. Do not use Aluminum Foil on any porcelain surface.
Doing so will cause damage the porcelain that affect the life of the porcelain

Convection Roast
The convection fan circulates the heated air evenly over and around the food. Using the
cover and broiler pan provided, heated air will be circulated over the around the food being
roasted. The heated air seals in juices quickly for a moist and tender product, while at the
same time creating a rich golden brown exterior. When convection roasting, it is important
that you use the broiler pan for best convection roasting results. The pan is used to catch
grease spills and has a cover to prevent grease splatters.
Convection Defrost
With temperature control off, the motorized fan in the rear of the oven circulates air. The fan
accelerates natural defrosting of the food without heat. To avoid illness and food waste, do
not allow defrost food to remain in the oven for more than two hours without being cooked.
Convection Dehydrate
With the temperature control on 175
o
F, warm air is radiated from the bake burners in the
bottom of the oven cavity and is circulated by a motorized fan in the rear of the oven. Over a
period of time, the water is removed from the food by evaporation. Removal of water inhibits
growth of microorganisms and retards the activity of enzymes.
BEFORE BAKING OR BROILING
The oven and broiler should be turned on to burn off the manufacturing oils. Turn the oven
on to 450˚F (230˚C) for 20 to 30 minutes; then turn the oven knob to “Broil” for the same
length of time. You may wish to turn on the ventilator above your range at this time

Broiling is a method of cooking tender cuts of meat directly under the infrared broiler in the
oven . Broiling in the oven is accomplished with the oven door closed. It is normal and
necessary for some smoke to be present to give the food a broiled flavor.
Preheating
Preheating is suggested when searing rare steaks (Remove the broiler pan before preheating
with the infrared broiler. Foods will stick on hot metal). To preheat, turn the “Oven” selector
knob to the “Broil” position. Wait for the burner to become hot, approximately 2 minutes.
Preheating is not necessary when broiling meat well-done.
To Broil
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.
Setting Broil
The “Oven” selector knob controls the Broil feature. When broiling, heat radiates downward
from the oven broiler for even coverage. The Broil feature temperature is 500˚F (260˚C).
The broil pan and insert used together allow dripping grease to drain and be kept away from
the high heat of the oven broiler. DO NOT use the broil pan without the insert. DO NOT
cover the broil pan insert with foil. The exposed grease could catch fire.
To set the oven to Broil:
1. Place the broiler pan insert on the broiler pan. Then place the food on the broiler pan
insert
2. Arrange the interior oven rack and place the broiler pan on rack. Be sure to center the broiler
pan and position directly under the broil burner. If preheating the broil burner first, position
the broiler pan after the broil burner is preheated.
3. Turn selector knob to Broil.
Broiler Operation
The oven indicator light will remain on until the selector knob is turned to the off position or the
temperature control cycles off.
Note: Door must be closed during broiling operation.
