WARNING!
IMPORTANTSAFETYNOTICE
The California Safe Drinking Water and ToxicEnforcement Act requires the Governor of California to
publish a list of substances known to the state to cause birth defects or other reproductive harm, and
requires businesses to warn customers of potential exposure to such substances.
Gasappliances can cause minor exposure to four of these substances, namely benzene, carbon
monoxide, formaldehyde and soot, caused primarily by the incomplete combustion of natural gas or
LP fuels. Properly adjusted burners, indicated by a bluish rather than a yeflow flame, will minimize
incomplete combustion. Exposure to these substances can be minimized by venting with an open
window or using a ventilation fan or hood.

Adjust the oven thermostat--Do it yourself!
Youmay find that your new oven cooks differently than the one # replaced. Use your new oven for a few weeks to
become more familiar with it. If you still think your new oven is too hot or too cold, you can adjust the thermostat yourself.
Donot use thermometers, such as those found in grocery stores, to check the temperature setting of your oven.
These thermometers may vary20-40 degrees.
NOTE"This adjustment will not affect the broiling or the self-cleaning temperatures. Theadjustment will be retained
in memory after a power failure.

Thetypeofmargarine will affect bakingperformance!
Most recipes for baking have been developed using high fat products such as butter or margarine (80% fat). If you
decrease the fat, the recipe may not give the same results as with a higherfat product.
Recipe failure can result if cakes, pies, pastries, cookies or candies are made with Iowfat spreads. TheIowerthe fat
content of aspread product, the more noticeable these differences become.
Federal standards require products labeled "margarine" to contain at least 80% tilt by weight, ix)w tilt spreads, on tile
other hand, contain less tilt and more water Tile high moisture content at these spreads affects tile texture and flavor
of baked goods. For best results with wmr old tin'afire redpes, use mmgarine, butter or stick spreads containing at least
70% vegetable oil.

Oven Bottom
Tile oven bottom has a porcelain enamel
finish. To make cleaning easier; protect
the oven bottom fl'om excessive spillove_s
by placing a cookie sheet on the shelf
below the shelf you are cooking on. This is
particularly important when baking a fl'uit

highly acidic (such as tomatoes, sauerkraut,
and sauces with vinegar or lemon juice)
Illay Catlse pitting and damage to tile
porcelain enamel sure_ce and should be
wiped up immediately:
We don't recommend using aluminum fifil
on tile oven bottom. It can affect air flow if
the holes are blocked and it can concentrate
heat at tile bottom _fftile oven, resulting in
poor baking perfimnance.

section.) To check if the device is hastalled
mad engaged properly, carefully tip the rmage
forward. The kaati-Tip device should engage
mad prevent the rmage from tipping over.
If you pull the rmage out from the wall for
may reason, make sure the Anti-Tip device
is engaged when you push the range hack
against the wall.
• For your safet)', never use w)ur range for waruiing
or heating tile rooni. Your oven and cooktop are
not designed to heat your kitchen. Top burners
should not be operated without cookware oil the

• Do not store or use conlbustible ulaterials,
gasoline or other flauunable vapors and liquids
in the vicinity of this or any other ai)pliance.
Explosions or fires could result.
• Do not rise ()veil tor a storage ai'ea. ]teuls stored in
tile ()veil can ignite.
• Do not let cooking grease or other flauinlable
nlaterials accuululate in or near tile range.
LOCATION
Do not locate the range where it may be subject to strong
drafts. Any openings ha the floor or wall behind the rmage
should be sealed. Make sure the openhags around the
base of the rmage that supply fresh air for combustion
mad ventilation axe not obs_'ucted by carpeting or
woodwork.
Your range, like ulanv other household iteins, is hea\ T
and can settle into sott floor coverings such as cushioned
vinyl or cai])efing. Use care when inoving tile range
on this _'pe of flooring. It is recoumlended that tile
tollowing siinple and inexpensive instructions be
tollowed to protect your flooI:
Tile range should be installed on a sheet at plywood
(or siufilar inaterial). _'_]/eIl tile floor covering ends at
the fl'ont of the range, the area that the range will rest
on should be built up with plywood to tile sanle level or
higher than tile floor covering.
This will alh)w the range to be uloved fi)r cleaning or
seI'vicing. _Mso, ulake sure vour floor coveI_ing will
withstand 180°E (See the Installation Safety Instructions
section.)
Make sure tile wall c(wefings around your range can
withstand tile heat generated (up to 200°F) by tile range.
(See tile Installation Safety Instructions section.)

[] PROVIDE ADEQUATE
GAS SUPPLY
Your rmage is designed to operate at a pressure
of 10" of water column on LP gas (propane or
butmae) or, if designed for natural gas, 4" of
water column.
Make sure you are supplying your range with tile
type of gas tin" which it is designed.
This range is convertible fro" use on natural or
propane gas. If you decide to use this range on
II_lttII'_ll g_ls, convei'sion illtist be Ill}l(le bv }1
qualified installer before attempting to operate
tile range on that gas.
For proper operation, the pressure of I,P gas
supplied to tile regulator must be between 10"
and 13" of water colmnn.
For natural gas, the pressure supplied must be
between 4" and 13" of water colmnn.
When checking Ira" proper operation of the
regulatm; tile inlet pressure must be at least 1"
greater than tile operating (nmnifold) pressure
as given above.
Tile pressure regulator located at tile inlet of tile
range manifl_ld must remain in tile supply line
regardless of whether I,P or natmal gas is being
used,
A flexible metal appliance connector used to
connect the range to the gas supply line should
have an I.D. of 1/2" and be 5 fl_et in length Ira"
ease of installation. In Canada, flexible
connectoi_ must be single wall metal connectors
no longer than 6 feet in length.
[] CONNECT THE RANGE TO GAS
Shut off the main gas supply valve before discomaec_ag
the old rmage mad leave it off until the new hookup has
been completed. Don't forget to relight the pilot on other
gas applimaces when you tuna the gas back on.
Because hard piping restricts movement of tile range,
tile use of a CSA International-certified flexible metnl
appliance connector is recommended unless local codes
require a hard-i)iped connection.
Never use an old connector when installing a new range.
If tile hard piping method is used, you m ust carefllllv
align tile pipe; tile range cannot be moved after tile
connection is ii/[l(le.
To prevent gas leaks, put ifipejoint compound oil, or
wrap pipe thread tape with Teflon':: around, all male
(external) pipe threads.
A. Install a nlanual gas line shut-off wdve in the gas line in
an easily accessed location outside of the range. Make
sure everyone operating tile range knows where and
how to shut off tile gas supply to tile range.
B. Install male 1/2" flare union adapter to the 1/2" NPT
internal thread at inlet of regulatoi: Use a backup
wrench on the regulator fitting to avoid danmge.
When installing the range ti'om the fl'ont, remove the
90 ° elbow tot easier installation.
C. lnstnll male 1/2" or 3/4" flare ration adapter to tile

Extension Cord Cautions
Because of potential satbW hazards associated with certain
conditions, we strongly reconlmend against the use of
an extension cord. However; if you still elect to use an
extension cord, it is absolutely necessary that it be a
UiAisted, 3-wire grounding-Q'l)e appliance extension
cord and that the current carrying rating of the cord in
amperes be equi\_dent to, or greater than, the branch
circuit rating.

FOR PERSONAL SAI_:'I'Y, THIS APPLIANCE MUST
BE PROPFI/LY GROUNDED.
Preferred Method
E_lsureproperground
existsbeforeuse
The power cord of this appliance is equipped with a
3-prong (grounding) i_lug which mates with a standard
three-prong grounding wall receptacle to minimize the
i)ossibiliQ ' of electric shock hazard fl'om this appliance.
The customer should have the wall receptacle and drcuit
checked by a qualified electfidan to make Stli'e the
receptacle is properly grounded.
Where a standard two-prong wall receptacle is
encountered, it is the personal responsibility and
obligation of the customer to have it replaced with
a propedy grounded three-prong wall receptacle.
DO NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCF£, CUT OR
REaMOVE THE THIRD (GROUND) PRONG I_IIOM
