Your range, like many other
household items, is heavy and
can settle into soft floor coverings
such as cushioned vinyl or
carpeting.
When moving the range
on this type of flooring, use care,
and it is recommended that these
simple and inexpensive instructions
be followed.
Unless it is a built-in off-the-floor
model, the range
should
be installed
on a sheet of plywood (or similar
material) as follows:
When the
jloor
covering ends at the front of
the range,
the area that the range
will rest on should be built up with
plywood to the same level or higher
than the floor covering. This will
allow the range to be moved for
cleaning or servicing.
On models with bottom storage
drawer, leveling screws may be
located on the front two corners of
the base of the range or on all four
corners. Remove the bottom drawer
and you can level the range on
an uneven floor with the use of
a nutdriver.
To remove drawer, pull drawer
out
all
the way, tilt up the front
and take it out. To replace
drawer,
insert glides at back of
drawer beyond stop on range glides.
Lift drawer if necessary to insert
easily. Let front of drawer down,
then push in to close.
Surface Cooking
Use cookware of medium weight
aluminum, with tight-fitting covers
and flat bottoms which completely
cover the heated portion of the
surface unit.
Cook fresh vegetables with a
minimum amount of water in a
covered pan.
Watch foods when bringing them
quickly to cooking temperatures at
HIGH heat. When food reaches
cooking temperature, reduce heat
immediately to lowest setting that
will keep it cooking.
Use residual heat with surface
cooking whenever possible. For
example, when cooking eggs in the
shell, bring water to boil, then turn
to OFF position to complete the
cooking.
Use correct heat for cooking task:
HIGH—to start cooking (if time
allows, do not use HIGH heat to
start).
MEDIUM HI—quick browning.
MEDIUM—slow frying.
LOW—finish cooking most
quantities, simmer—double boiler
heat, and special for small quantities.
When boiling water for tea or
coffee, heat only the amount
needed. It is not economical to boil
a container full of water for one or
two cups.

Oven Cooking
Preheat oven only when
necessary. Most foods will cook
satisfactorily without preheating. If
you find preheating is necessary,
watch the indicator light, and put
food in the oven promptly after the
light goes out.
Always turn oven OFF before
removing food.
Q
During baking, avoid frequent
door openings. Keep door open as
short a time as possible when it is
opened.
Cook complete oven meals
instead of just one food item.
Potatoes, other vegetables, and
some desserts will cook together
with a main-dish casserole, meat
loaf, chicken or roast. Choose
foods that cook at the same
temperature and in approximately
the same time.
Use residual heat in the oven
whenever possible to finish
cooking casseroles, oven meals,
etc. Also add rolls or precooked
desserts to warm oven, using
residual heat to warm them.
