To eliminate the risk of burns or fire by reaching over heated surface units, cabinet storage
space located above the surface units should be avoided. If cabinet storage is to be provided,
the risk can be reduced by installing a range hood. These hoods have been designed to work
in conjunction with the range and have the same finish for a perfect look.
For maximum performance, the height of the bottom of the hood from the worktop should be
between 30" (76.2 cm) and 36" (91.4 cm). This would typically result in the bottom of the
hood being 61 1/2" (156.2 cm) to 67 1/2" (171.5 cm) above the floor. These measurements
provide for safe and efficient operation of the hood.
Before installation of the exhaust hood, consult local or regional building and installation
codes for additional specific clearance requirements.
Refer to the range hood installation instructions provided by the manufacturer for additional

oven is hot, do not let potholder contact hot heating element in oven.
Do not clean oven door gasket. The door gasket is essential for a good seal. Care should be
taken not to rub, damage, or move the gasket.
Do not use oven cleaning products. No commercial oven cleaner or oven liner protective
coating of any kind should be used in or around any part of the oven.
Clean only parts listed in manual.
Before cleaning the oven, remove broiler pan and other utensils.
Do not use water on grease fires. Smother fire or flames or use dry chemical or foam-type
extinguisher.
The cooktop and surfaces facing the cooktop may be hot even though they are dark in
color. Areas near these may become hot enough to cause burns. During and after use, do
not touch, or let clothing or other flammable materials contact the cook-top and surfaces
facing the cook-top until they have had sufficient time to cool.
WARNING: DO NOT TOUCH HEATING ELEMENTS OR INTERIOR SURFACES OF
OVEN. Heating elements may be hot even though they are dark in color. Interior surfaces of
an oven become hot enough to cause burns. During and after use, do not touch, or let
clothing or other flammable materials contact heating elements or interior surfaces of oven
until they have had sufficient time to cool. Do not touch any surface of the oven until they
have had sufficient time to cool, as some surfaces become hot enough to cause burns,
included: oven vent openings and surfaces near these openings, oven doors, and windows
of oven doors.
Do not use an extension cord to connect this appliance. If the power supply cord is too
short, have a qualified electrician or serviceman install an outlet near the appliance.
WARNING: Do not operate the range without the anti-tip device in place and engaged;
a child or adult can tip the range and be killed. Verify the anti-tip device has been properly
installed and engaged. Ensure the anti-tip device is re-installed when the range is moved;
failure to do so can result in death or serious burns to children or adults.
ROOM VENTILATION: The use of a gas cooking appliance generates heat and
humidity in the room where it is installed. Proper ventilation in the room is needed. Make
sure the kitchen is equipped with a range hood of appropriate power (400 CFM minimum).
Activate the exhaust fan/range hood when possible. Intensive and continuous use of the
appliance may require additional ventilation, for example by opening a window.

When roasting meats, check internal temperature prior to time recommended by recipe to
prevent over cooking. When roasting meats in convection mode, do not reduce temperature
setting.
Condensation
It is normal for a certain amount of moisture to evaporate from the food during any cooking
process The amount depends on the moisture content of the food. The moisture will
condense on any surface cooler than, the inside of the oven, such as the control panel.
Rack Positions
Large Main Oven One Rack Baking When baking on one rack, best results are obtained in
the bake mode (see Bake). When roasting a turkey or a large piece of meat, convection bake
may be used. Rack 4 is the most appropriate rack.
Two Rack Baking
Racks 4 and 2 are most appropriate when using the convection bake mode. Round cake
pans should be staggered on racks 4 and 2. Rectangular (9 x 13) cake pans and cookie
sheets should be placed on rack 4 directly under the one on rack 2. This may be used for
cakes, cookies, biscuits and other foods for which two rack baking is desirable. When several
casseroles, frozen pies or cakes are to be baked, use racks 4 and 2. These two racks can
also be used for a large oven meal.
Bakeware Type
Aluminum bake ware gives the best browning results. Cookie sheets with only two sides give
the best results. Aluminum commercial half-sheets or professional cooking utensils may be
used but baking times may be increased.
Placement
For better browning, utensils such as cookie sheets. Rectangular baking pans should be
placed crosswise on the rack with the shorter side facing right and left to allow better air flow.
When baking on more than one rack, cookie sheets and rectangular (9 x 13) cake pans
should not be staggered; round cake pans should be staggered.
Settings for BAKE/CONVECTION and BAKE/CONVECTION/TURBO Cooking Modes
These cooking modes are for baking, roasting or warming using one or two racks.
1.) Select BAKE/CONVECTION or BAKE/ CONVECTION/TURBO using the Selector

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
BAKE
Preheating
Preheat the oven before baking. The oven does not need to be preheated for large pieces of
meat or poultry. See your recipe for preheating recommendation. Preheating time depends
on the temperature setting and the number of racks in the oven.
Tips for Getting the Best Results
Minimize opening the door.
Choose the right size bake ware.
Use the bake ware recommended in the recipe. Store the broiler pans outside the oven:
extra pans without food affect the browning and cooking.
Browning can depend from the type of pan used:
For tender, golden brown crusts, use light non-stick anodized or shiny metal pans.
For brown crisp crusts, use dark non-stick/anodized or dark, dull metal utensils or
glass bake ware. These may require lowering the bake temperature 25°F.
Bakeware Type
Metal bake ware (with or without a non-stick finish), heat-proof glass, glass ceramic, pottery,
or other utensils are suitable for the oven. Suitable cookie sheets have a small lip on one
side only. Heavy sheets or those with lips on more than one side may affect the baking time.
Bake Rack Positions
Rack level positions in the oven are numbered as in the diagram on Page 28.
One Rack Baking
The Bake mode is best for baking on one rack with rack level 3 and 4 used for most baked
items. When baking tall items, rack level 4 may be used. Pies are best baked on rack level 4
or 5 to ensure the bottom of the crust is done without over-browning the top. When large
pieces of meat or poultry are roasted such as a prime rib of beef or a turkey, rack level 4 is
the preferred rack.
Two Rack Baking
Rack levels 3 and 5 may be used when baking on two levels. Cookies and biscuits can be
cooked properly using these two racks. Casserole dishes may al so be baked using these
two levels.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
COOKING WITH CONVECTION
There are many advantages to cooking with convection. In the convection system, a fan in
the back of the oven moves heated air evenly around the oven. The moving air provides even
heat so foods can be placed on any rack level with consistent results and without having to
rotate the pans. Convection also enables cooking simultaneously on multiple racks.
Low, shallow bake ware should be used with convection cooking. This allows the heated air
to properly move around the food. Pans with high sides or pans that are covered are not
suitable for convection cooking because high sides or lids prohibit the warm air from
circulating around the food.
Any food cooked uncovered will brown evenly and form a nice crust. Foods in covered dishes
(casseroles, pot roast) or delicate custards are not suitable for convection cooking.
CONVECTION BAKE & TURBO
Time can be saved by baking an entire batch of cookies at the same time. The cookies will
bake evenly and be done all at once. The baking time may be shorter due to the warm
circulating air. For small items such as cookies, check to see if they are done one to two
minutes before the recipe time. For larger baked items such as cakes, check five to six
minutes before the time indicated on the recipe.
Convection cooking of meat and poultry will result in foods that are brown and crispy on the
outside and moist and juicy on the inside. Large meat or poultry items may cook up to 30
minutes less than the suggested time so check them so they will not be over baked. A meat
thermometer or an instant read thermometer will provide more accurate results than the
"minute per pound" method. The larger the piece of meat or poultry, the more time you will
save.
Converting Conventional Baking to Convection Cooking
To convert most recipes for baked items (cookies, cakes, pies, etc.), reduce the oven
temperature by 25°F. For meats and poultry, use the temperature recommended in recipes
and cooking charts.
throughout the oven cavity for all uses. Multiple rack use is possible for baking large amounts
of food. When roasting, cool air is quickly replaced -searing meats on the outside and
retaining more juices and natural flavor on the inside with less shrinkage.
CONVECTION BAKE
Full power heat is radiated from the bake element in the bottom of the oven and partial power
is radiated from the top element. Air is circulated by the fan in the rear of the oven.
TURBO BAKE
The rear and bottom elements operate at full power. Air is circulated by the fan for even
heating. Use this setting to reduce pre-heating time of the oven or for recipes which require
uniform cooking with strong heat from bottom such as pizza and focaccia bread.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
BROIL / CONVECTION BROIL
Preheating
Broiling requires constant exposure to high, intense heat. Only the upper element heats in
the BROILER mode. It is recommended that you preheat the broil element before starting to
cook. Preheat until the "PRE-HEATING" light turns off (about 5-6 minutes).
Tips for Getting the Best Results
Defrost food before broiling.
Keep oven door closed during broiling.
Steaks should be more than 1" thick if rare meat is desired. Use convection broil if
steaks are over 1-1/2 inches thick. Turn food over once after half cooking time. It is not
necessary to turn very thin food (ham slices, fillets of fish, etc.). Liver slices must be
turned over regardless of thickness.
Use a timer. Set it for the minimum time and check the food.
Center food directly under the broiling element for best browning.
Rack Positions
Before turning on the oven, place the rack in the desired position. After preheating the broiler,
center the broil pan under the broil element.
Position 2: Use this rack position when broiling beef steaks, ground meat patties, ham
steak and lamb chops 1 inch or less thick. Also use when browning food.
Position 3: Use this rack position when broiling meat 1 1/8 inches or more thick, fish,
poultry, pork chops,
ham steaks 1 inch or more thick.
Position 3 or 4: Use this rack when broiling chicken quarters or halves.
Utensils
A porcelain enamel broil pan is included with the range.
Use metal or glass-ceramic bake ware when browning casseroles, main dishes, or
bread.
DO NOT use heat-proof glass or pottery. This type of glassware cannot withstand the
intense hear of the broil element.
Broiling Using Meat Thermometer
To more accurately define the preparation of thick steaks or chops (at least 1 1/2 inches
thick), use a meat thermometer. Insert the point of the thermometer into the side of the meat
reaching the center of the steak or chop.
For rare steaks, cook the first side to 90°F. For medium or well done steaks, cook the first
side to 100°F. Turn and cook the second side to desired internal temperature.

Do not clean the range when hot.
Cleaning After Installation

warm water. Remove burned food and fat residues with a rubber spatula . If food residue
prevent the smooth operation of the control knobs, call the customer service hotline to

use a soft sponge or cloth with a warm soap and water solution. Never use abrasive powders
or liquids.
Cleaning the Burner Caps

Dry thoroughly before using them again. Before reinstalling them on the burner head, check
that the gas flow holes are not clogged with food residues or cleaning product residues.
Cleaning Enamel
Enamelled parts should be cleaned frequently with warm soap and water solution applied with
a soft sponge or wipe. Never use abrasive powders or liquids. Do not leave acid or alkaline
substances on the enamelled parts (such as vinegar, lemon juice, salt, tomato sauce, etc.).
Use a rubber spatula to remove fat residues.
Cleaning the Glass Door
Clean the glass using a non-abrasive sponge or wipe with a warm soap and warm water
solution. Use a rubber spatula to remove fat residues.
ATTENTION: While cleaning the door, avoid spillage of food residues and
cleaning products in the venting holes situated on the top side of the door. To
clean the inside of the oven door, call a qualified professional. If you have any
further questions regarding cleaning the appliance, please contact your
