carbon monoxide poisoning.
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. Aluminum foil linings may trap heat,
causing a fire hazard.
Stepping, leaning or sitting on the door or
drawers of a range can result in serious injuries
and also cause damage to the appliance. DO NOT
allow children to climb or play around the range. The
weight of a child on an open oven door may cause the
range to tip, resulting in serious burns or other injury.
Storage in or on appliance--flammable materials
should not be stored in an oven, near surface
units or in the storage drawer, warmer drawer or
lower oven. This includes paper, plastic and cloth
items, such as cookbooks, plasticware and towels, as
well as flammable liquids. Do not store explosives, such
as aerosol cans, on or near the range.
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,
including the storage drawer, lower broiler drawer,
warmer drawer or lower double oven.
Do not store items of interest to children in the
cabinets above a range or on the backguard of
the range. Children climbing on the range to reach
items could be seriously injured.
• Remove the oven door from any unused range if
it is to be stored or discarded.
• User servicing--Do not repair or replace any part
of the appliance unless specifically recommended
in the manuals. All other servicing should be done
only by a qualified technician, This may reduce the risk
of personal injury and damage to the range.

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 or grease may catch fire if allowed to become too
hot.
• Use dry potholders - moist or damp potholders
on hot surfaces may result in burns from steam.
Do not let potholders touch hot heating elements. Do
not use a towel or other bulky cloth instead of a
potholder.
• Do not heat unopened food containers -
buildup of pressure may cause container to
burst and result in injury.

IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING
YOUR COOKTOP
Use Proper Flame Size--Adjustflame sizeso itdoes
notextend beyond theedge of the utensil.The use of
undersizedutensilswillexpose a portionof the burner
flame to directcontactand may resultinignitionof
clothing.Properrelationshipof utensilto flame will
alsoimprove 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.
• Glazed cooking utensils--Only certain types of glass,
glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed
utensils are suitable for cook top service without
breaking due to the sudden change in temperature.
Check the manufacturer's recommendations for cook
top use.
• When flaming foods under a ventilating hood,
turn the fan on.
Air curtain or other overhead range hoods, which
operate by blowing a downward air flow on to a range,
shall not be used in conjunction with gas ranges other
than when the hood and range have been designed,
tested and listed by an independent test laboratory for
use in combination with each other.
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING
YOUR OVEN
• Use care when opening oven door, warmer
drawer or lower oven door--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.
Protective liners--Do not use aluminum foil to line
the oven bottom. Only use aluminum foil as
recommended in this manual. Improper installation of
these liners may result in risk of electric shock, or fire.
IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE
The California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement
Act requires the Governor of California to publish a list of
substances known to the state to cause cancer, birth
defects or other reproductive harm, and requires
businesses to warn customers of potential exposure to
such substances.

SELF-CLEANING OVENS
• Clean in the self-cleaning cycle only the parts
listed in this Use & Care Manual. 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.
• 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.
IM PORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FORCLEANING
YOUR RANGE
• Clean the range regularly to keep all parts free of
grease that could catch fire. Pay particular attention
to the area around each surface burner. Do not allow
grease to accumulate.
• 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.
• Clean ventilating hoods frequently--Grease
should not be allowed to accumulate on the hood
or filter. Follow the manufacturer's instructions for
cleaning hoods.

oven rack
The flat oven rack or flat handle oven rack (some
models) is suitable for most cooking needs. The half rack
(some models) design comes with a removable section
that allows for taller cooking utensils. The offset oven
rack (some models) is designed to place the base of the
rack about 1/2 of a rack position lower than normal. This
rack design provides several additional possible positions
between the standard positions. To maximize oven
cooking space place the bottom oven rack (some
models) in the lowest rack position for baking or roasting
large cuts of meat.
Air circulation in the oven
For best baking results allow 2-4" (5-10 cm) around the
cookware for proper air circulation and be sure pans and
cookware do not touch each other, the oven door, sides
or back of the oven cavity. Hot air must be able to
circulate around the cookware in the oven for even heat
to reach around the food (See Fig. 3 ).
Fig. 3
Baking layer cakes with 1 or 2 oven racks
For best results when baking cakes or cookies using 2
oven racks, place cookware on rack in positions 2 and 4.
For best results when baking cakes or cookies using a
single oven rack, place cookware on rack in positions 3 or
4 (See Fig. 2).

Effortless TM Oven Rack system
Some models are equipped with a special oven rack
system that automatically partially extends the oven rack
from the interior oven glides to assist in easier access to
your food items. This feature works whenever the oven
door is opened or closed.
Make sure the oven and oven racks are COMPLETLY cool
and safe to touch before attempting to assemble or
disassemble the Effortless TMOven Rack system. Never
REMOVE ALL OVEN RACKS and accessories
before starting a self-clean cycle. If the oven racks
are left in the oven during the self-clean cycle, the
glide ability of the Effortless TMOven Rack system will be
damaged and will cause oven racks to loose their shiny
finish and or turn blue. Remove ALL oven racks and
clean according to instructions provided in the Care &
Cleaning section of this manual.
To assemble the Effortless TMOven Rack system:
1. Locate all required parts. You will need the supplied
oven rack (Effortless T" Oven Rack is a flat rack with a
special dark coating on the left and right rack
sides) and the 2 supplied chrome connector arms.
2. Open the oven door. Be sure the oven is completely
cool before proceeding.
3. Place the oven rack in positions 2, 3 or 4 only (see
previous page to verify positions).Be sure the rack
connector brackets are at the rear of the range and
pointing towards oven bottom (See Fig. 2).
4. Assemble one connector arm at a time. With the oven
door open and the oven rack in place, install one end
of the connector arm to the hole in the door
connector bracket (Fig. 1) and the other end in the
hole in the rack connector bracket (Fig. 2 and as in
Fig. 3). The oven rack may need to be adjusted in or
out in the rack position to match the length of the
connector arm.
5. While holding the connector arm in place, twist the
connector arm so the ends of the connector arm point
upwards (See Figs. 4 & 5). The connector arm
should now be locked into position.
6. Repeat steps 4 and 5 for the other connector arm.
7. Once both connector arms are properly in place, be
sure to test the oven rack operation by gently closing
the oven door. The oven rack should move in and out
of the oven freely when the door is opened or closed.
Only the Effortless TMOven Rack system should be
used in oven rack position 2. Placing ANY other rack
in oven rack position 2 will prevent the oven door
from fully closing and may damage the oven door,
oven cavity or the door connector brackets.
If the rack system is not assembled with the connector
arms the Effortless T" Oven rack may be used in oven
rack positions 2 thru 6. Do not attempt to use the
Effortless TMOven rack in rack position 1.

Using proper cookware
For best cooking results,
cookware should have flat
bottoms that rest level on
the burner grate. Before
using cookware, check for
flatness by rotating a
ruler across the bottom of
the cookware (Fig. 1).
Fig. 1
i
Do not place flammable items such as plastic salt
and pepper shakers, spoon holders or plastic wrappings
on cooktop when it is in use. These items could melt or
ignite. Potholders, towels or wooden spoons could
placed t00 c!ose to the range cooktop.
i
Do not place aluminum foil, or ANY material
that can melt on the range cooktop. If these
items melt they may damage the co0ktop. ....................................
The size and type of utensil used, and the amount and
type of food being cooked will influence the settings
needed forbestcookingresults.
Cookware material types
The most popular materials available are:
Aluminum - Excellent heat conductor. Some types of
food will cause it to darken (Anodized aluminum cookware
resists staining & pitting).
Copper - Excellent heat conductor but discolors easily.
Stainless - Slow heat conductor with uneven cooking
results. Is durable, easy to clean and resists staining.
Cast Iron - A slow heat conductor however will retain
heat very well. Cooks evenly once cooking temperature is
reached.
Porcelain-enamel on metal - Heating characteristics
will vary depending on base material.
Glass - Slow heat conductor.
Set proper burner flame size
The color of the 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.
For most cooking; start on the highest setting and then
turn to a lower setting to complete the process. Use the
recommendations below as a guide for determining
proper flame size for various types of cooking (Fig. 2)
For deep fat frying; use a thermometer and adjust the
surface 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 will neither brown or cook
properly.
Flame Size* Type of Cooking
High Flame Start most foods; bring water to a boil;
pan broiling.
Medium Flame Maintain a slow boil; thicken sauces,
gravies; steaming.
Low Flame Keep foods cooking; poach; stewing.
*These settings are based for medium-weight metal or
aluminum pans with lids. Settings may vary when using
other types of pans. Fig. 2
Never operate a surface burner with the gas flame
setting beyond the outer edge of a cooking utensil. A
high flame wastes energy, and increases your risk of
being burned by the flame (Fig. 3).

Setting surface controls
Your gas range may be
equipped with many
different sized surface
burners. The ability to heat
food quicker and in larger
volumes increases as the
burner size increases. It is
important to select
cookware that is suitable
for the amount and type of
food being prepared.
Select a burner and flame
size appropriate for the
cookware size.
Fig. 1
The smaller simmer burner (some models) is ideal for
simmering delicate sauces, etc. The standard size (9,500
BTU) burners may be used for most surface cooking
needs.
The larger quick boil burner or burners (some models)
are best used for bringing large quantities of liquid to
temperature or when preparing larger quantities of food.
Setting surface burners
1. Place cooking utensil on top of surface burner grate.
Make sure the cooking utensil is centered and stable
on the grate.
2. Push the desired surface control knob in and turn
counterclockwise out of the OFF position (Fig. 1).
3. Release the knob and rotate to the lite position.
Visually check that the gas burner has lit.
4. Push the control knob in and turn counterclockwise
to the desired flame size. Use the control knob
markings and adjust the flame as needed.
Do not place flammable items such as plastic salt
and pepper shakers, spoon holders or plastic wrappings
on cooktop when it is in use. These items could melt or
ignite. Potholders, towels or wooden spoons could
catch fi!e if placed t0o close t0 the !ange cooktop. .................................
In the event of an electrical power outage, the surface
burners may 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 push
in and turn knob to desired setting. Use caution when
lighting surface burners manually.
DO NOT operate a surface burner with the knob left in
the LITE position. The electronic ignitor will continue to
spark if a surface control knob is left in the LITE
position. When setting any surface control knob to the
LITE position, all electronic ignitors will spark at the
same time. However, only the surface burner you are
setting will ignite.
Using the griddle grate (some models)
When cool remove the center burner grate and carefully
replace with the center griddle grate (if equipped).
Preheat the griddle for 5 minutes using a medium to
medium low center burner setting. Slow preheat ensures
even heat distribution later during the cooking process.
DO NOT preheat the griddle using a hi (high) setting.
Preheating on high may warp the griddle and prevent
even heat distribution.
After each use:
• To prevent rusting, store griddle grate in a dry place
and keep uncovered.
• After each use, clean griddle grate with a stiff brush and
hot water only.
• Dry immediately and apply a light coating of vegetable
oil to griddle before storing.
• Do not clean griddle grate in the dishwasher.
Home Canning
Be sure to read and observe all the following points when
home canning with your appliance. Check with the USDA
(United States Department of Agriculture) website and be
sure to read all the information they have available as well
as follow their recommendations for canning procedures.
Use only quality flat bottom canners when home
canning. Use a straight-edge to check canner bottom

Convect (all models)
Benefits of the convect features
-- Foods will cook faster, saving time and energy
-- Multiple oven rack baking
-- No special pans or bakeware needed
Convect uses a fan to circulate the oven's heat uniformly
and continuously around the oven. Heated air flows
around the food from all sides, sealing in juices and
flavors. Breads and pastries brown more evenly. This
improved heat distribution allows for fast, even cooking
and browning results. It also provides better results when
baking using multiple oven racks. Compared to most foods
prepared in a standard oven, the convect feature will cook
foods faster and more evenly.
Suggestions for convect baking
• For optimum cooking results it is recommended to
preheat the oven when baking foods such as cookies,
biscuits and breads.
Reduce oven temperature 25°F from recipe's
recommended oven temperature. Follow the remainder
of the recipe's instructions using the minimum
recommended cook time.
• When using 2 oven racks at the same time, place in
positions 2 & 5 for best results (Fig. 1).
• Layer cakes will have better results using the normal
bake feature.
Convect bake (all models)
To set convect (convection bake) with a default oven
set temperature of 350°F:
Step Press
1. Press convect, convect
2. Press start (See Fig. 2). start
Fig. 2
• When using the convect bake feature cook time
reductions may vary depending on the amount and
type of food being cooked.
• The convection fan will take 6 minutes to begin
rotating once convect bake or convect roast has
been activated.
When choosing between the convect features, use the
convect key pad to toggle between the convect
bake or convect roast choices.
Convect roast (all models)
Meats cooked with convect roast will be juicer and
poultry will be crisp on the outside while staying tender
and moist on the inside.
Suggestion for convect roasting
1. Preheating is not necessary when roasting foods using
convect roast.
2. Since convect roast cooks food faster, reduce the
cook time by 25% from the recommended cook time
of your recipe (check the food at this time). If
necessary, increase cook time until the desired
doneness is obtained.
3. Do not cover foods when dry roasting - this will
prevent the meat from browning properly.
To set convect roast (convection roast) with a
default oven set temperature of 350°F:
Step Press
1. Press convect, convect
2. Press convect again, convect
3. Press start (See Fig. 3). start

Setting convect (convection) convert
The convect convert feature allows you to convert any
baking recipe usingthe convect (convection) feature. The
control uses the normal recipe settings and adjusts to a
lower temperature for convection baking.
Convect convert can only be used with the convect bake
feature.
To set convect using default oven set temperature
of 350°F and adding the convect convert:
Step Press
1. Press convect, convect
convect
2. Press convect convert, convert
Fig. 1
When convect convert is used with a cook time
or a delay start setting, the convect convert
feature will display a "CF" for check food
when the bake time is 75% complete (See Fig.
1). At this time the oven control will sound 1
long beep at regular intervals until the set cook
time has finished.
• The convection fan will take 6 minutes to
begin rotating once the convect convert
feature has been activated.
• When using convect convert cook time
reductions may vary depending on the oven set
temperature.
• The minimum amount of cook time allowed using
the convect convert feature with a bake time or a
delay time bake setting is 20 minutes.
• Layer cakes will have better results using the
normal bake feature.

Before starting self-clean
A self-cleaning oven cleans itself with high temperatures
(well above normal cooking temperatures) which
eliminate soils completely or reduces them to a fine
powdered ash you can wipe away with a damp cloth.
Your oven allows you to set 3 different self-cleaning cycle
durations. A 3-hour cleaning time is best used for normal
cleaning; 2-hour time for light soils and a 4-hour time
option for heavier burnt-on soils.
Adhere to the following self-clean precautions:
• DO NOT use oven cleaners or oven protective
coatings in or around any part of the oven interior.
DO NOT clean the oven door gasket. The glass
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 agents on the oven door
gasket. Doing so could damage the gasket (Fig. 1).
U
io
iiii•
_o
Completely remove all utensils, accessories
and ANY ALUMINUM FOIL from oven. These
items cannot withstand high self-clean
temperatures and can melt. Remove broil pan
and insert (some models).
Remove ALL OVEN RACKS. If the oven racks
are not removed they will lose their special
coating properties and no longer slide in and
out of the oven cavity effortlessly.
Remove any excessive spillovers. Any spills,
especially those on the oven bottom, should be
wiped-up and removed before starting the self-
clean 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 (See Fig. 1;
areas shown in white). These areas heat sufficiently
to burn soil on. Clean with soap and water.
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.
During the self-clean cycle, 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 complete. The
oven may still be VERY HOT.
• The health of some birds is extremely sensitive to
the fumes given off during the self-clean cycle of

When the self-clean cycle has completed:
1. The time of day and "Hot" will appear in the display
window (See Fig.3).
2. Once the oven has cooled down for about 1 hour and
"Hot" is no longer displayed the "door OPn"
message should appear (Fig. 4). When this message
turns off the oven door may be opened.
Fig. 3 Fig. 4
During the self-clean cycle, 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 complete. The oven
may still be VERY HOT.
• 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.
If it becomes necessary to stop a self-clean cycle
once it has been activated:
1. Press cancel.
2. If the self-clean cycle has heated the oven to a high
temperature, allow enough time for the oven to cool
and for the "door OPn" message to appear (Fig. 4).
When this message turns off the oven door may be
opened.
3. Restart the self-clean cycle once all conditions have
been corrected.
Whenever the self-clean feature is active you may check
amount of time remaining in the self-clean cycle by
pressing the self pad once. The oven door will be
clean
locked until the range has cooled sufficiently. You will
need to allow about 1 additional hour to the time
displayed before you can open the oven door.
When the oven is cool, wipe away any residue or
_owdered ash with a damp cloth or paper towel.

• To avoid possible burns DO NOT attempt any of the
cooktop or surface burner cleaning instructions
provided before turning OFF all of the surface
burners and allow them time to cool.
• Any additions, changes or conversions required in
order for this appliance to satisfactorily meet the
application needs must be made by an authorized
qualified Agency.
For round style burners, the burner cap lip (See Fig. 1)
should fit snug into the center of burner head and rest
level. Refer to Figs. 2 & 3 for correct and incorrect burner
cap placement. Once in place, you may check the fit by
gently sliding the burner cap from side to side (Fig. 4) to
be sure it is centered and firmly seated. When the burner
cap lip makes contact inside the center of the burner head
you will be able to hear the burner cap click. Please note
that the burner cap should NOT move off the center of the
burner head when sliding from side to side.
Check and be sure that the oval style (some models)
burner cap is correctly positioned. It should rest level on
top of oval burner head.
• Always keep all surface burner caps in place
whenever operating any surface burner.
• When placing the burner caps, be sure that all
burner caps are seated firmly and rest level on top
burnerheads.

Cleaning the cooktop and surface burners
Cleaning recessed and contoured areas of cooktop
It is important to routinely clean the cooktop. Keeping the
cooktop surface clean afLer each use will help avoid soil
buildup from becoming very difficult to remove.
To avoid scratching, wipe with a clean, damp cloth and wipe
dry. If a spill occurs on or in the recessed or contoured
areas of the cooktop, blot up spill with an absorbent cloth.
Rinse with a clean, damp cloth and wipe dry.
29
Cleaning the cooktop and surface burners
(cont'd)
For proper flow of gas and ignition of burners -- DO
NOT allow spills, food, cleaning agents or any
other material to enter the gas orifice opening.
• The surface burner heads are secured to the
cooktop and must be cleaned in place.
Cleaning burner caps
• Remove caps from burner heads only after they are cool.
• DO NOT clean burner caps in the dishwasher.
• DO NOT use abrasive cleaners. They can scratch and
dull the porcelain finish.
• Clean heavy soils with a nonabrasive plastic scrubbing
pad and wipe with absorbent cloth.
• Thoroughly dry burner caps immediately following
cleaning including the bottom and inside of cap.
Cleaning surface burner heads
For proper gas flow it may be necessary to clean the burner
head and slots. To clean, first use a clean DAMP cloth to
soak up any spills. Remove any food from between the
burner slots using a small nonabrasive brush like a
toothbrush and afterwards wipe up using a damp cloth (See
Fig. 1). For stubborn soils located in the slots, use a small-
gauge wire or needle to clean.
slots
Aluminum foil and
oven liners
Do not use aluminum liners
or foil to cover the oven
bottom or cover the oven
racks with foil.
Liners or covers will restrict the heat and air flow needed
to obtain the best possible cooking results for any oven,
including the warmer drawer (some models).
The temperatures generated inside the oven during the
self-clean cycle are high enough to melt aluminum,
resulting in possible damage to the interior porcelain oven
surfaces. Read the following warning:
NEVERcover 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. Aluminum foil
linings may trap heat, causing a fire hazard.
Replacing the oven light
