Important Safety Instructions
• DO Not Leave Children Alone---Children should not be left
alone or unattended in the area where appliance is in use.
They should never be allowed to sit or stand on any part of the
appliance.
• DO NOT TOUCH SURFACE BURNERS, AREAS NEAR THESE
BURNERS, OVEN BURNERS OR INTERIOR SURFACES OF
THE OVEN. Both surface and oven burners may be hot even
though flames are not visible. Areas near surface burners may
become hot enough to cause burns. During and after use, do not
touch, or let clothing or other flammable materials touch these
areas until they have had sufficient time to cool. Among these
areas are the cook top, surfaces facing the cook top, the oven vent
openings and surfaces near these openings, oven door and
window.
• Wear Proper Apparel--Loose-fitting or hanging garments
should never be worn while using the appliance. Do not let
clothing or other flammable materials contact hot surfaces.
• Do Not Use Water or Flour on Grease Fires--Smother the fire
with a pan lid, or use baking soda, a dry chemical or foam*
type extinguisher.
• When heating fat or grease, watch it closely. Fat orgrease may
catch fire if allowed to become too hot.

always turn off the oven. If the oven is not turned off and the power
resumes, the oven will begin to operate again. Once the power
resumes, reset the clock and oven function.
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING YOUR
COOKTOP
_'I _IvjV'-l:t_ll_[cll 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 not extend 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.
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 hot
use 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 the unit
has been in temperatures above 32°F (0°C) for at least 3 hours
before turning on the power to the appliance.
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 cleaning.
• Kitchen cleaners and aerosols--Always follow the
manufacturer's recommended directions for use. Be aware
that excess residue from cleaners and aerosols may ignite causing
damage and injury.
SELF CLEANING OVENS
• Clean in the self-cleaning cycle only the parts listed in this Use
& Care Guide. Before self cleaning the oven, remove the broiler
pan and any utensils or foods from the oven.
• Do Not Use Oven Cleaners--No commercial oven cleaner or
oven liner protective coating of any kind should be used in or
around any part of the oven.
• Do Not Clean Door Gasket--The door gasket is essential for a
good seal. Care should be taken not to rub, damage or move the
gasket.

Setting Surface Controls
Do not place plastic
items such as salt and pepper shakers,
spoon holders or plastic wrappings
on top of the range when it is in use.
These items could melt or ignite.
Potholders,towels orwoodspoonscould
catch fire if placed too close to a flame.
Intheevent ofan electricalpoweroutage,
the surface burners can be lit manually.
To light a surface burner, hold a lit match
to the burner head, then slowly turn the
surface control knob to LITE. After burner
lights )ush in and turn knob to desired
setting. Use caution when lighting surface
burners manually.
Setting Surface Controls
Your range may be equipped with different sized surface burners. The ability to
heat food quicker and in larger volumes increases as the burner size increases.
The simmer burner (some models) is best used for simmering delicate sauces,
etc.
The standard burners can be used for most surface cooking needs.
The Power burner or burners are best used for bringing large quantities of liquid
to temperature and when preparing larger quantities of food.
Regardless of size, always select cookware that issuitable for the amount and
type offood being prepared. Select a burner and flame size appropriateto the pan.
Never allow flames to extend beyond the outer edge of the pan.
Operating the Gas Surface Burners:
1. Place cooking utensil on surface burner.
2. Push the surface control knob inand turn counterclockwise out of the OFF
position.
3. Release the knob and rotate to the LITE position. Note: Alt four electronic
surface ignitors wilt spark at the same time. However, only the burner you
are turning on will ignite.
3. Visually check that the burner has lit.
4. Push the control knob in and turn counterclockwise to the desired flame
size. The control knobs do not have to be set at a particular setting. Use the
guides and adjust the flame as needed. DO NOT cook with the surface
control knob in the LITE position. (The electronic ignitor will continue to spark
if the knob is left in the LITE position.)
RIGHT
Setting Proper Surface Burner Flame Size
For most cooking, start on the highest control setting and then turn to a
lower one to complete the process. Use the recommendations below as a
guide for determining proper flame size for various types of cooking. The
size and type of utensil used and the amount of food being cooked will
influence the setting needed for cooking.
WRONG
*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.
Never extend the flame beyond the outer
edge of the utensil. A higherflame simply ]
wastes heat and energy, and increases
your r sk of be ng burned by the fame.
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 wilt brown so quickly that the center will be
undercooked. Do not attempt to deep fat fry too much food at once as the
food will neither brown nor cook properly.
*These settings are based on using medium-weight metal or aluminum pans with lids. Settings may vary when using
other types of pans. The color of the flame is the key to proper burner adjustment. A good flame isclear, blue and hardly
visible in a well-lighted room. Each cone offlame should be steady and sharp. Adjust or clean burner ifflame isyellow-orange.

To Operate the Warmer (Warm & Ready TM) Drawer
Your range is equipped with a warmer drawer. The purpose of the warmer
drawer is to 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 dishware, 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.
TO Set the Warmer (Warm & Ready TM) Drawer Thermostat
Control
The thermostat control is used to select the temperature of the warmer
drawer. It is located on the control panel. To set the thermostat, push in and
turn the knob to the desired setting. The temperatures are approximate, and
are designated by HI, MED and LO.
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. Turn the thermostat control to OFF after use.
Warmer (Warm & Ready TM) Drawer Temperature Selection
Refer to the chart in the side column for recommended settings. If a
particular food is not listed, start with the medium setting. If more crispness
is desired, remove the lid or aluminum foil.
Most foods can be kept at serving temperatures by using the medium
setting.
When a combination of foods are to be kept warm (for instance, a meat with
2 vegetables and rolls), use the high setting.
Refrain from opening the warmer drawer while in use to eliminate loss of
heat from the drawer.

Self-Cleaning
During the self-cleaning
cycle, the outside of the range can
become very hot to the touch. DO NOT
leave small children unattended near the
appliance.
The health of some birds
is extremely sensitive to the fumes given
off during the self-cleaning cycle of any
range. Move birds to another well-
ventilated room.
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).
DO NOT force the oven
door open. This can damage the
automatic door locking system. Use
caution when opening the door after the
self-cleaning cycle is completed. The
oven may still be VERY HOT.

Self-Cleaning Oven
A self-cleaning oven cleans itself with high temperatures (well above
cooking temperatures) which eliminate soil completely or reduce it to a fine
powdered ash you can wipe away with a damp cloth.
Adhere to the following cleaning precautions:
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.
Remove the broiler pan and insert, all utensils and any aluminum
foil. These items cannot withstand high cleaning temperatures.
Oven racks should be removed. If they are not removed during the
clean cycle their color will turn slightly blue and the finish will be dull.
After the cycle is complete and the oven has cooled, rub the sides of the
racks with wax paper or a cloth containing a small amount of baby oil or
salad oil (this will make the racks glide easier into the rack position).
Remove any excessive spillovers 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 leave a dull spot even after cleaning.
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.

To Start the Self-Clean Cycle
For satisfactory results, use a 2 hour self-clean cycle for light soils and a 3 hour cycle for average or heavy soils.
NOTE: The kitchen area should be ventilated using an open window, ventitlation fan or exhaust hood during the first
self-clean cycle. This wilt help eliminate the normal odors associated with the first self-clean cycle.

4. As soon as the I_. or v is released, "CLn" appears in the display.
5. As soon as the controls are set, the motor driven lock will begin to close automatically and the "LOCK" indicator
light wilt flash. DO NOT open the door while the light is flashing (it takes about 15 seconds for the oven door to
lock).
6. The "LOCK" light will glow until the cleaning cycle is completed or cancelled, and the oven temperature has cooled.
When the Self-Clean Cycle is Completed:
1. The time of day or "End" will appear in the display window and the "Clean" and "LOCK" light will continue to glow.
2. Once the oven has cooled down for about 1 HOUR and the "LOCK" light has gone out, the oven door can be
opened.
3. If "End" is in the display and the "Clean" indicator remains on, press @. The time of day will appear in the
display.
NOTE: When the oven is cool, wipe away any residue or powdered ash with a damp cloth or paper towel.
Stopping or Interrupting a Self-Cleaning Cycle
If it becomes necessary to stop or interrupt a self-cleaning cycle:
1. Press @.
2. Once the oven has cooled down for about 1 HOUR and the "LOCK" light has gone out, the oven door can be
opened.
3. Restart the self-clean cycle once all conditions have been corrected.
To avoid possible burns use care when opening the oven door after the self-cleaning cycle. Stand to the side
of the oven when opening the door to allow hot air or steam to escape.
DO NOT force the oven door open. This can damage the automatic door locking system. Use caution and avoid
possible burns when opening the door after the self-cleaning cycle has completed. The oven may still be VERY HOT.
