IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING
YOUR COOKTOP
FI,W'-1:t_II_[_II Use Proper Flame Size--Adjust flame size so
it does not extend beyond the edge of the utensil. The use of
undersized utensils will expose a portion of the burner flame to
direct contact and may result in ignition of clothing. Proper
relationship of utensil to flame will also improve efficiency.
• Know which knob controls each surface burner. Place a pan
of food on the burner before turning it on, and turn the burner
off before removing the pan.
•Always turn knob to the full LITE position when igniting top
burners. Visually check that burner has lit. Then adjust the flame
so it does not extend beyond the edge of the utensil.
• Utensil Handles Should Be Turned Inward and Not Extend Over
Adjacent Surface Burners--To reduce the risk of burns, ignition
of flammable materials, and spillage due to unintentional contact
with the utensil, the handle of the utensil should be positioned so
that it is turned inward, and does notextend over adjacent surface
burners.
• Never Leave Surface Burners Unattended at High Heat
Settings--Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers that
may ignite, or a pan that has boiled dry may melt.
• Protective Liners--Do not use aluminum foil to line surface
burner pans, or oven bottom, except as suggested in this
manual. Improper installation of these liners may result in risk
of electric shock, or fire.
• Glazed Cooking Utensils--Only certain types of glass, glass/
ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed utensils are
suitable for cooktop service without breaking due to sudden
change in temperatures. Check the manufacturer's
recommendations for cooktop use.
• Do net use Searing Grill on the coektep. The Searing Grill is
not designed for use on the cooktop. Doing so may result in a
fire.
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING
YOUR OVEN
• Use Care When Opening Oven Door or Warmer Drawer--
Stand to the side of the range when opening the door of a hot
oven. Let hot air or steam escape before you remove or
replace food in the oven.
• Keep Oven Vent Ducts Unobstructed. The oven vent is
located below the backguard. Touching the surfaces in this
area when the oven is operating may cause severe burns.
Also, do not place plastic or heat-sensitive items on or near
the oven vent. These items could melt or ignite.
• Placement of Oven Racks. Always place oven racks in desired
location while oven is cool. If rack must be moved while oven is
hotuse extreme caution. Use potholders and grasp the rack with
both hands to reposition. Do not let potholders contact the hot
heating elements in the oven. Remove all utensils from the rack
before moving.
• Do not use the broiler pan without its insert. The broiler pan
and its insert allow dripping fat to drain and be kept away from
the high heat of the broiler.
• Do not cover the broiler insert with aluminum foil. Exposed
fat and grease could ignite.
• Cold temperatures can damage the electronic control. When
using the appliance for the first time, or when the appliance
has not been used for an extended period of time, be certain

• Do Not Cook on Broken Cook Top--If cook top should break,
cleaning solutions and spillovers may penetrate the broken
cook top and create a risk of electric shock. Contact a qualified
technician immediately.
• Clean Cook Top with Caution--If a wet sponge or cloth is
used to wipe spills on a hot cooking area, be careful to avoid a
steam burn. Some cleaners can produce noxious fumes if
applied to a hot surface.
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR CLEANING
YOUR RANGE
• Clean the range regularly to keep all parts free of grease
that could catch fire. Pay particular attention to the area
underneath each surface element. Do not allow grease to
accumulate. Refer to the range manufacturer's instructions for

properly in the slot of each Burner Head (See Fig. 2). Proper
Burner Head placement insures that each Burner will have the
correct spark required for surface gas ignition.
2. Place the correct Burner Caps at each of the burner locations (Burner
Cap Pilot Hole must face up). Each of the 4 (four) Burner Heads
MUST have a Burner Cap installed to insure proper ignition and gas
flame size and must be in place with the Pilot Hole facing up
BEFORE placing the Burner Grates (See Fig. 2).
3. Place the 2 (two) cast iron Burner Grates supplied with the range.
Carefully line-up the 2 Grate Pins on each Grate with the Cap Pilot
Holes in the 2 Burner Caps on each side of the range. DO NOT force
the Burner Grates onto the Burner Caps. Forcing the grates down
onto improperly installed Burner Heads and Burner Caps may damage
the gas burners. Each Burner Cap is designed with a Cap Pilot Hole
in the top center of the Cap. Visually check that ALL the Grate Pins
line up into the Burner Cap Pilot Holes (See Figure 2). Properly
installed Burner Grates wilt rest with all four Grate legs on the
glass .
REMEMBER -- DO NOT ALLOW SPILLS, FOOD, CLEANING AGENTS
OR ANY OTHER MATERIAL TO ENTER THE GAS ORIFICE HOLDER
OPENING. Always keep the Burner Caps and Burner Heads in place
whenever the surface burners are in use. If burner orifice becomes

Your range is equipped with gas surface burners
with 4 different BTU ratings. The ability to heat
food quicker and in larger volumes increases as
the burner size increases.
The smaller SIMMER burner is best used for
simmering delicate sauces, etc. This burner is
located at the right rear burner position on the
cooktop (See Fig. 1).
The STANDARD burner can be used for most
surface cooking needs. This burner is located at
the left front burner position on the cooktop (See
Fig. 1).
The larger 2 POWER burners are best used for
bringing large quantities of liquid rapidly up to
temperature orwhen preparing larger quantities of
food. The two POWER Burners are located at the
left rear and right front burner positions on the
cooktop (See Fig. 1).

FEATURE OVERVIEW
Setting Proper Flame Size
Using the Wok Stand
Setting Proper Surface Burner Flame Size
For most cooking - start on the highest control setting and then turn to a
lower one tocomplete the process. Use the recommendations below as a
guide for determining proper flame size for various types ofcooking. The size
and type of utensil used and the amount offood being cooked will influence the
setting needed.
Co_e_
*Flame Size
High Flame
Medium Flame
Low Flame
Type of Cooking
Start most foods; bring water to a boil; pan broiling.
Maintain a slow boil; thicken sauces, gravies; steaming.
Keep foods cooking; poach; stewing.
Incorrect
Never extend the flame beyond the
outer edge of the utensil. A higher
flame simply wastes heat and energy,
and increases the risk of being burned
by the gas flame.
For deep fat frying - use a thermometer and adjust the surface control knob
accordingly. If the fat is too cool, the food will absorb the fat and be greasy. If
the fat is too hot, the food will brown so quickly that the center will be
undercooked. Do not attempt to deep fat fry too much food at once as the food
wilt neither brown nor cook properly.
*Note: Settings are based on using medium-weight metal or aluminum
pans, Settings may vary when using other types of pans. The color ofthe
flame is the key to proper burner adjustment. A good flame is clear, blue and
hardly visible in a well-lighted room. Each cone of flame should be steady and
sharp. Adjust or clean burner if flame is yellow-orange.
Using the Wok Stand
The Wok Stand provided with your range is designed to allow round-bottomed
woks to be used. It is recommended that you use a 14 inch maximum
diameter (35.5 cm) Wok. The Wok Stand MUST be used on either the right or
left FRONT burner positions. Cooking with a Wok using the Wok Stand on the
rear burner positions may damage the control panel of the range. And it is
recommended that you use the right front POWER burner for best
performance. If properly positioned, the Wok Stand will not slide off the grate.
To Properly Position the Wok Stand:
With the grate in position over the burner, set the Wok Stand on top of the
grate positioningthe angled notch in the Wok Stand towards the rear of the
range (See Fig 1). Turn the Wok Stand, as shown, untilthe grate fingers fit into
the slots on the bottom of the stand (See Fig. 2).
Always use potholders to
remove the wok stand from the grate.
Allow the wok stand to cool before
removing. Do not set hot wok stand on
surfaces that cannot withstand high
heat; such as countertops.
Be sure the Wok Stand
is positioned correctly and stable before
use to prevent hot spills and possible
burns.
Position Wok Stand centered over right front
burner grate with angled notch In lower ring

The purpose of the Warmer Drawer isto keep hot cooked foods at serving
temperature. Always start with hot food. It is not recommended to heat cold
food in the Warmer Drawer. All food placed in the Warmer Drawer should be
covered with a lid or aluminum foil to maintain quality. Do not use plastic
wrap to cover food. Plastic may melt onto the drawer and be very difficult
to clean. Use only utensils and cookware recommended for oven use in the
Warmer Drawer.
Always use potholders or oven mitts when removing food from
the Warmer Drawer as cookware and plates will be hot and you can be burned.
To Set the Warmer Drawer Control:
The control is used to select the temperature of the Warmer Drawer. It is
located on the control panel. To set the control, push in and turn the knob to
the desired setting. The temperatures are approximate, and are designated by
HI (high), MED (medium) and LO (low).
1. Turn the knob to select the desired temperature setting.
2. For best results, preheat the drawer before adding food. An empty drawer
will preheat in approximately 15 minutes.
3. When done, turn the control to OFF.
Temperature Selection
Recommended Warmer Drawer settings table is shown in Figure 3. If a
particular food is not listed, start with the MED setting. If more crispness is
desired, remove the lid or aluminum foil from the food. Most foods can be kept
at serving temperatures on the MED setting. When a combination of foods are
to be kept warm (for instance, a meat with 2 vegetables and rolls), use the HI
setting. To avoid heat loss, do not open the Warmer Drawer while in use.
Warmer Drawer Indicator Light
The Warmer Drawer indicator light is located above the Warmer Drawer control
knob (See Fig.2). It turns on when the control is set, and stays on until the
control is turned off. The Warmer Drawer is inoperable during the Self-
Clean cycle.

The MEATS 0' CAKES O and BREADS (_ pads in
the Food Categories feature is used when cooking certain food items. These
pads have been designed to give optimum cook performance for the foods
selected in each category.
The MEATS pad combines a cook cycle with the convection fan and element to roast meats and poultry. Preheating is not
necessary for meats and poultry. Heated air circulates around the food from alt sides, sealing in juices and flavors. Foods
are crispy brown on the outside while staying moist on the inside.
The CAKES pad provides a preheat with agentle cycling of heat giving cakes more volume and allowing delicate foods to
cook more evenly. Cook times may need to be extended when baking 4 cake layers at one time.
The BREADS pad adds a preheat feature to the bake cycle to thoroughly heat the oven from top to bottom to give more
evenly browned foods. Refer to (Fig. 4) for foods to cook in each category.

Roasting Instructions for Meat Pad
When using the Meat pad for roasting, use the broiler pan and insert along with the
roasting rack. The broiler pan will catch grease spills and the insert will help prevent
grease spatters. The roasting rack will allow the heat to circulate around the meat.
To prevent food from contacting the broil element and to prevent grease
spattering, DO NOT use the roasting rack when broiling.
1. Place oven rack on bottom or next to the bottom rack position. See Arranging
Oven Racks in the Before Setting Oven Controls section.
2. Place the insert in the broiler pan. The roasting rack fits on the insert allowing the
heated air to circulate under the food for even cooking and helps to increase browning
on the underside. Make sure the roasting rack is securely seated on the insert in the
broiler pan. DO NOT use the broiler pan without the insert or cover the insert with

Benefits of Convection Bake:
--Some foods cook up to 30% faster,
saving time and energy.
--Multiple rack baking.
--No special pans or bakeware needed.
The CONVECTION BAKE _ pad controls the Convection Bake feature.
Use the Convection Bake feature when cooking speed is desired. The oven
can be programmed for Convection baking at any temperature between 300 ° F
(149 ° C) to 550 ° F (288 ° C).
Convection baking uses a fan to circulate the oven's heat evenly and
continuously within the oven (See Figure 1). This improved heat distribution
allows for fast, even cooking and browning results. It also gives better baking
results when using 2 or 3 racks at the same time. Breads and pastries brown
more evenly. Compared to a standard oven, most foods will cook faster and
more evenly with Convection Bake.

General Convection Bake Instructions
1. When using Convection Bake, decrease your normal cooking times as shown in the cooking tables on page 37.
Adjust the cook time for desired aloneness as needed. Time reductions will vary depending on the amount and type
of food to be cooked. Cookies and biscuits should be baked on pans with no sides or very low sides to allow
heated air to circulate around the food. Food baked on pans with a dark finish will cook faster.
2. Preheating is not necessary when cooking casseroles with Convection Bake.
3. When using Convection Bake with a single rack, place oven rack in position 3 or 4. Ifcooking on multiple racks, place
the oven racks in positions 1,3 and 5 (for 3 racks) and positions 2 and 4 (for 2 racks; See Fig. 2).
4. Cakes have better resultswhen baked with the Cake pad inthe Food Categories feature.

OVERVIEW
Preparing for the Self-
Clean Cycle
The health
of some birds isextremely
sensitive to the fumes
given off during the self-
cleaning cycle of any
range. Move birds to
another well-ventilated
room.
Preparing for the Self-Clean Cycle:
A self-cleaning oven cleans itself with high temperatures which eliminate soil completely or
reduce itto a fine powdered ash you can wipe away with a damp cloth. These temperatures
are well above normal cooking temperatures.
1. Adhere to the following cleaning precautions:
Allow the oven to cool before precteaning.
Wear rubber gloves when precteaning and while wiping up the residue after the self-
clean cycle.
DO NOT use oven cleaners or oven protective coatings in or around any part of the
self-cleaning oven.
DO NOT clean the oven door gasket. The woven material of the oven door gasket is
essential for a good seal. Care should be taken not to rub, damage or remove the
gasket.
DO NOT use any cleaning materials on the oven door gasket. Doing so could cause
damage.
2.
Remove the Searing Grill, Broiler Pan and Broiler Pan Insert, all utensils and any
aluminum foil. These items cannot withstand high cleaning temperatures.
DO NOT line the oven walls, racks, bottom or any other part of the range
with aluminum foil. Doing so will destroy heat distribution, produce poor baking results
and cause permanent damage to the oven interior (aluminum foil will melt to the interior
surface of the oven).
.
Oven racks should be removed, or else their finish will dull and their color turn slightly
blue. If they do go through the self-clean cycle, wait until the oven has cooled, then
remove the racks and rub their sides with wax paper or a cloth containing a small
amount of baby or salad oil (this will make the racks glide easier back into their
positions).
4.
Remove any excess spitlovers in the oven cavity before starting the self-cleaning cycle.
To clean, use hot, soapy water and a cloth. Large spillovers can cause heavy smoke or
fire when subjected to high temperatures. DO NOT allow food spills with a high sugar or
acid content (such as milk, tomatoes, sauerkraut, fruit juices or pie filling) to remain on
the surface as they may cause a dull spot even after cleaning.
5. Clean any soil from the oven frame, the door liner outside the oven door gasket, and the
small area at the front center of the oven bottom. These areas heat sufficiently to burn
soil on. Clean with soap and water.
If at any time when setting the oven for the Self-Cleaning
feature, the oven control continuously beeps and the display
shows "dr"; close the oven door (See Figure 1).
Figure 1
Note: Prior to setting the Self-Clean cycle, any spills remaining on the oven
bottom should be removed.
The oven bake and broil elements MAY STILL BE HOT even
though they do not glow red. Be sure they are completely cool before attempting
to clean under the bake element.
The bake element is designed to be tilted up from the front of the bake element
(See Fig. 2). This wilt allow easier access to the oven bottom for cleaning. Be
careful not to raise the element more than 3 inches from the resting position.

Cooktop Cleaning & Maintenance
Cleaning Recommendations for Ceramic Glass Cooktops
Cooktop Cleaning and Maintenance
Prior to using your cooktop for the first time, apply the recommended CookTop® Cleaning Creme (P/N 22-40079) to the
ceramic surface. Clean and buffwith a paper towel or a 3M Scotch-Brite@ Blue Multi-Purpose No Scratch Scrub Sponge
(see instructions below). This will make cleaning easier when soiled from cooking. The special cooktop cleaning cream
leaves a protective finish on the glass to help prevent scratches and abrasions.
Sliding aluminum or copper clad bottom pans on the cooktop can
cause metal markings on the cooktop surface. These marks should
be removed immediately after the cooktop has cooled using the
cooktop cleaning cream. Metal marks can become permanent if not
removed prior to future use.
Cookware (cast iron, metal, ceramic or glass) with rough bottoms
can mark or scratch the cooktop surface. Do not slide anything
metal or glass across the cooktop. Do not use your cooktop as a
cutting board or work surface in the kitchen. Do not cook foods
directly on the cooktop surface without a pan. Do not drop heavy or
hard objects on the glass cooktop, they may cause it to crack.
Cleaning Recommendations for the Ceramic Glass Cooktop
[Iri'_ !_'_I'_'_tT_Before cleaning the cooktop, be sure the controls are turned to OFF and the cooktop is COOL.
_'IVA'hJ.'i_II_[el DO NOT use a cooktop cleaner on a hot cooktop. The fumes can be hazardous to your health, and can
chemically damage the ceramic-glass surface.
For light to moderate soil:
Apply a few drops of CookTop@ Cleaning Creme directly to the cooktop. Use a paper towel or a 3M Scotch-Brite@ Blue
Multi-Purpose No Scratch Scrub Sponge to clean the entire cooktop surface. Make sure the cooktop is cleaned thoroughly,
leaving no residue.
For heavy, burned on soil:
Apply a few drops of CookTop® Cleaning Creme directly to the soiled area. Rub the soiled area using a 3M Scotch-Bdte®
Blue Multi-Purpose No Scratch Scrub Sponge, applying pressure as needed. Do not use the sponge you use to clean the
cooktop for any other purpose.
/
/
If soils remain, carefully scrape soils with a metal razor blade
scraper, holding scraper at a 30 degree angle to the surface. Remove
loosened soils with cooktop cleaning cream and buff surface clean.
Damage to the ceramic glass cooktop may occur if
you use any scrub pad other than a 3M Scotch-Bdte@ Blue Multi-
Purpose No Scratch Scrub Sponge.
Plastic or foods with a high sugar content:
These types of soils need be removed immediately if spilled or
melted onto the ceramic cooktop surface. Permanent damage (such
as pitting of the cooktop surface) may occur if not removed
immediately. After turning the surface elements OFF, use a razor
blade scraper or a metal spatula with a mitt and scrape the soil from
the hot surface (as illustrated). Allow the cooktop to cool, and use
the same method for heavy or burned on soils.
