IMPORTANT: Keep the injectors removed from the range for future use.
STEP 5: Air Shutter for Oven Bottom & Top Burner (Optional)
The air shutter for the oven burner may need adjustment, especially if the unit has been converted for use with LP
from NG. The approximate height of the flame at the oven burner is one inch (distinctive inner blue flame).
To determine if the air shutter of oven burners need to be adjusted:
Set the oven knob to 350°F position or broil and observe the flame color. If yellow flame can be seen, need to
increase the air shutter opening. If the flame is blue and lifting away from the burner, need to reduce the air shutter
opening.
5.1)Turn off the oven and allow it to cool before adjusting the air shutter.

The information can be obtained from the existing Rating / Serial label. Place the LPG conversion label as close as
possible to the existing Rating / Serial label on the range.
Preparation
Before moving the range, protect any finished flooring and secure oven door(s) closed to prevent damage.
The oven door(s) can be removed to lighten the load or to fit the unit through a doorway. Only remove if necessary.
Do not remove the griddle or any other component. Door removal should only be done by a certified installer or
service technician.
Placement
Do not lift or carry the oven door by the door handle. Use an appliance dolly to move the range near the opening.
Remove and recycle packing materials. Do not discard the anti-tip bracket supplied with the range.
Leveling
Raise the range to the desired height by adjusting the legs. The legs can be adjusted by rotating clockwise to raise
or counter clockwise to lower the range.
Anti-Tip Bracket
To prevent the range from tipping forward, the anti-tip bracket must be installed. Refer to the section of ANTI-TIP
DEVICE.
Gas Supply Connection
All connections to the gas piping must be wrench-tightened. Do not over-tighten or allow pipes to turn when
tightening.
When all connections have been made, check that all range controls are in the “OFF” position and turn on the main
gas supply valve.
If a flexible metal connector is being used, verify it is not kinked, then attach the gas supply line to the regulator on
the range. Open the valve and check for leakage by placing a liquid detergent solution onto all gas connections.
Bubbles around connections indicate a gas leak. If a leakage is determined, close the shut-off valve and fix the
connections.
Leakage testing of the appliance shall be conducted according to the manufacture’s instructions . Use some soap
water (50% water and 50% soap) or a leakage detector at all joints and connections to check for leaks in the
system. Do not use a flame to check for gas leaks.
The appliance must be isolated from the building’s gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual
shut-off valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test pressure equal to or less than 0.5
psi (3.5kPa).
Getting Started
Before you start cooking, please take the following steps.

Medium-Hi High-temperature frying, pan boiling, maintaining slow boil on large quantities.
Hi Boiling liquid quickly, deep frying.
CAUTION
Never leave pans on a high setting unattended. Be careful when cooking food in
fat or grease; it can become hot enough to ignite. Burner flames not covered by
cookware present a risk of fire or clothing ignition. Never let flames extend beyond
the sides of the cookware. Failure to comply may result in serious injury.
Simmer and Boil
A smaller flame will give the best results when simmering. Small flames offer precise cooking performance for
delicate foods, keeping food warm, melting chocolate or butter, and for cooking over low heat for long period of
time.
The highest (larger) flame settings provide the maximum heat that is available on your range. This setting should
be used for heavy cooking jobs such as boiling water and cooking pasts.
Flame Size
When you adjust the flame size, watch the flame when you turn the knob.
Any flame exceeding the bottom of the cookware will not heat faster and may be
hazardous .
The flame should be steady and blue in color. Impurity in the gas supply may cause
an orange flame during initial operation.
Power Failure
If the gas does not ignite within 4 seconds, turn off the valve and allow at least five minutes for any gas to
dissipate. Repeat the lighting procedure.
In the event of a power failure, the surface burners can be lighted manually. Hold a lighted match near a burner
and turn the knob counter-clockwise to “HI”. After burner lights, turn knob to the desired setting.
Burner Grills
1. The grills must be properly positioned before cooking. Improper installation of the grills may result in scratching
of the cooktop and / or poor combustion.
2. Do not operate the burners without a pan or utensil on the grills.
Griddle Operation (Only available on the 48”models)

cool before cleaning.
Cooptop cleaning tips
background
20
To prevent the cooktop from discoloring or staining, clean cooktop after each use, and wipe up acidic or sugary
spills as soon as the cooktop is cooled.
The sealed burners of your range are not secured to the cooktop and are designed to be removed easily. Boil
overs or spills will not seep underneath the cooktop. The burners should be cleaned after each use.
Oven Light
The oven light is controlled by a push switch on the control panel.
The light can be used while cooking or cleaning the oven.
WARNING
Before replacing the oven light, make sure power is disconnected from the
electrical box and the oven is cooled completely. Disassemble the light cover and
replace the light bulb with a 40-watt halogen bulb. Install the light cover properly.
Oven Operation
Temperature gauge
1. The gauge shows the oven temperature in both CELSIUS degree and FAHRENHEIT degree.
2. Correct reading can be obtained when the temperature inside the oven is steady.
3. For model FFSGS6291-48, the gauge is available for the big oven(30” oven) only.
Oven Ignition
The oven is equipped with an ignition system which contains pilot flame function
and safety device. To light up the oven burner, push and turn the oven control
knob anti-clockwise to reach IGNITE position and hold it. You will hear a clicking
noise - the sound of ignition pin sparking. Hold the knob until you can see the
pilot flame on.
To light up the broil burner, push and turn the oven control knob clockwise to
“Broil” position and hold it. You will hear a clicking noise - the sound of ignition pin
sparking. Hold the knob until you can see the burner is lighted up.
DO NOT RELEASE the knob before you can see the flame comes up. If fail to
light up the oven burner within 10 seconds, reset the oven control knob to the
“OFF” position, repeat above operations until the oven burner is properly ignited.
IMPORTANT
Safety device is equipped with the oven burner. When the flame goes out by accident, the gas
supply will be shut off automatically. You need to turn the control knob back to the “OFF”
position and ignite again.
WARNING
If fail to light up the oven burner 3 times continuously, the oven might full of the gas, then
open the oven door to allow gas dissipating before operating ignition again. Otherwise,
the oven may explode and the user will get hurt.
Oven Baking Tips
For fast exhausting the smell of "burning" or "oily" odor emitting from a new oven, turn the oven knob to "Broil" and
run for 30 minutes before initial use.
1. 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. The
aluminum foil lining may also trap heat, causing a fire hazard.
Do not use aluminum foil on any porcelain surface. Doing so will damage the porcelain and affect its durability.
2. Position the racks before preheating the oven.
Preheating
Allow the oven to preheat before placing food in the oven. Preheating is necessary for good results when baking
cakes, cookies, pastry and breads.
Remove the broiler pan before preheating with the infrared broiler. Foods will stick on hot metal.
To preheat, turn the “Oven control knob to the “Broil” position. Wait for the burner to become hot, approximately in
2 minutes.
Note: Condensation or fogging on the inside of the oven door glass is normal while preheating and it will usually
evaporate by the end of the preheating cycle
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.
background
21
Convection Bake
Heat is transferred from the bake burners in the bottom of the oven cavity to the oven cavity itself.
The convection fan at the rear of the oven then circulates it. This convection process provides a more even heat
distribution throughout the oven cavity.
Using multiple racks is possible for large-batch baking. Convection cooking is faster, can be done at lower
temperatures and provides more even temperatures than regular cooking.
Convection Roast
The convection fan circulates the heated air evenly over and around the food. Using the cover and broiler pan (not
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.
Broiler Operation
Note: Door must be closed during broiling operation.
The broil burner is located at the top of the oven. This burner heats the metal screen until it glows. The glowing
screen produces heat, searing the outside of broiled foods and sealing in juices. Broiling is a method of cooking
tender cuts of meat directly under the broiler in the oven.
Oven broiling is done with the oven door closed. It is normal and even necessary to have some smoke to give the
food a broiled flavor
Setting Broil
Turn the oven control knob clockwise to select the Broil function. When broiling, heat radiates downward from the
oven broiler. The temperature of Broil feature is 500˚F (260˚C).
Used together, the broil pan and insert(not included) 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 insert on the broiler pan. Then place the food on the pan insert.
2. Adjust the interior oven rack to the desired position and place the broiler pan on the rack. Be sure to center the
pan and position it directly under the broil burner. (If preheating is needed, put in the pan after the broil burner
reaches the temperature.)
3. Turn the control knob to Broil setting position.
The oven indicator will remain on until the control knob is turned to the OFF position or the temperature control
cycles off.
Position the rack at the correct level. The farther away the food is from the broiler, the more well done it will be
inside. Preheating the oven is not necessary. Push in and turn the knob to BROIL. Turn the food over at the
halfway point. Always pull the rack out to the “stop position before turning or removing food.
Oven Cleaning Tips
1. After each use, and once the oven is cooled, clean splatters and spills immediately.
2. Do not allow foods with a high sugar or acid content to remain on the oven cavity surface.
3. Use an oven cleaner to clean the oven cavity.
Oven Thermostat & Cooking time
The numbers printed on the control panel indicate the oven temperature setting
value (°F). To set the temperature, adjust the control knob indicator to line up with
the desired number on the control panel.
Note: The BROIL function is only for turning on the broil burner.
Cooking times can vary according to the type of food, its density and its size. It is
advisable to watch when cooking for the first time and to check results since similar
results are obtained when preparing the same dishes under the same conditions.
Use the thermostat to control the temperatures, and control the time according to
the cooking guides.
Thermostat is equipped in the oven, when the oven temperature reaches the setting, the oven temperature will
stay relatively stable. Actual oven temperature can be read from the gauge on the control panel.
