IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE

WAR_'_ING: If the information in this manual

is not followed exactly, a fire or explosion may

result causing property damage, personal

injury or death.

--Do not store or use gasoline or other

flammable vapors and liquids in the vicinity

of this or any other appliance.

--WHAT TO DO IF YOU SMELL C_hS

• Do not try to fight any appliance.

• Do not touch any electrical switch; do not

use any phone in your building.

• Immediately call your gas supplier from a

neighbor's phone. Follow the gas suppliers

instructions.

• If you cannot reach your gas supplier, call

the fire department.

--Installation and service must be performed

by a qualified installer, service agency or the

gas supplier.

• The C_tlffornia 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 m warn

customers of potential exposure to such substances.

Gas appliances 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 yellow flame, will minimize incomplete

combustion. Exposure to these substances can be

minimized further by venting with an open window

or using a ventilation fan or hood.

" Fluorescent light bulbs and safety valves on

standing pilot ranges contain mercury. If your

model has these features, they must be recycled

according to local, state and federal codes.

WhenYou GetYour Range

A WARNING

• ALL RANGES CAN TIP

, INJURY TO PERSONS

COULD RESULT

• INSTALL ANTI-TIP

DEVICES PACKED

WITH RANGE

- SEE INSTALLATION

INSTRUCTIONS

Have the installer show you the

location of the range gas shut-off

valve and how to shut it off if

necessary.

Have your range installed and

properly grounded by a qualified

installer in accordance with the

Installation Instructions. Any

adjustment and service should be

performed only by qualified gas

range installers or service technicians_

Plug your range (electric ignition models only)

into a 120-volt grounded outlet only. Do not remove

the round groundingprong from the plug. If in doubt

about the grounding of the home electrical system, it

is your personal responsibility and obligation to have

an ungrounded outlet replaced with a properly

grounded, three-prong outlet in accordance with the

National Electrical Code. In Canada, the appliance

must be electrically grounded in accordance with the

Canadian Electrical Code Do not use an extension

cord with this appliance.

* Do not attempt to repair or replace any part of

your range unless it is specifically recommended

in this manual. All other servicing should be

referred to a qualified technician

" Be sure all packing materials are removed from

the range before operating it to prevent fire or

smoke damage, should the packing material ignite_

" Locate the range out of kitchen traffic path and out

of drafty locations to prevent pilot outage (on models

with standing pilots) and poor air circulation.

° After prolonged use of a range, high floor

temperatures may result and many floor coverings

will not withstand this kind of use. Never install

the range over vinyl tile or linoleum that cannot

withstand such type of use. Never install it directly

over interior kitchen carpeting,

° Be sure your range is correctly adjusted by a

qualified installer for the type of gas (natural or

LP), that is to be used. Your range can be converted

for use with either type of gas. See the Installation

Instructions_

WARNING: The conversion of your range to LP gas

must be made by a qualified LP installer in accordance

with the manufacturer's instructions and all codes

and requirements of the authority having jurisdiction,

Failure to follow these instructions could result in

serious injury or property damage. The qualified

agency performing this work assumes responsibility

for the conversion.

UsingYour Range

• Do not leave children alone

or unattended where a range

is hot or in operation. They

could be seriously burned.

• Do not allow anyone to

climb, stand or hang on the

door, storage or broiler

drawer (on some models) or cooktop. They could

damage the range and even tip it over, causing severe

persona! injury.

• Let the burner grates and other surfaces cool

before touching them or leaving them where

children can reach them.

iiWAt/.NING---

All ranges can tip and injury could

result. To prevent accidental

tipping of the range, attach it to the

wall and floor by installing the Anti-

Tip device supplied°

To check if the device is installed and

engaged properly; carefully tip the

range forward. The Anti*Tip device

should engage and prevent the range

from tipping over.

If you pull the range out from the wail for any reason,

make sure the deviceis properly engaged when you push

the range back against the wall If it is not, there is a

possiblerisk of the range ripping over and causing injury

if you or a child stand, sit or lean on an open door°

Please refer to the Anti-Tip device information in this

manual. Failure to take this precaution could result in

tipping of the range and injury°

o For your safety, never use . : ;!

your appliance for wamdng

or heating the room.

• CAUTION: ITEMS OF

INTEREST TO CHILDREN

SHOULD NOT BE STORED

IN CABINETS ABOVE A

RANGE OR ON THE

BACKSPLASH OF A

RANGE--CHILDREN

CLIMBING ON THE RANGE

TO REACH ITEMS COULD

BE SERIOUSLY INJURED.

Important Safety Instructions (continued)

• Neverwearloose fitting (.)/_

or hanging garments while _0 ! / (_ \

using the appliance. Be " '*: '

carefi_ when reaching for

items stored in cabinets over

the cooktopo Flammable

material could be ignited if

brought in contact with flames or

hot oven surfaces and may cause severe burns.

• Do not use water on _

grease fires. Never pick

up a flaming pan. Turn

the controls off. Smother a

flaming pan on a surface

unit by covering the pan

completely with a weI!-

fitting lid, cookie sheet or

flat tray. Use a multi-

purpose dry chemical o r

foam-type fire extinguisher.

Flaming grease outside a pan can be put out by coveting

it with baking soda or, if available, by using a mtdti-

purpose dry chemical or foam-type fire extinguisher.

Flame in the oven can be smothered completely by

closing the oven door and turning the oven off or by

using a multi-purpose dry chemical or foam-type fire

extinguisher.

• Do not store flammable

materials in an oven,

range broiler or storage

drawer, or near the

cooktop.

• Do not store or use

combustible materials,

gasoline or other flammable vapors and fiquids in

the vicinity of this or any other appliance.

• Do not let cooking grease or other flammable

materials accumulate in or near the range.

• When cooking pork, follow the directions exactly

and always cook the meat to an internal temperature

of at least 170°E (77°C.). This assures that, in the

remote possibility that trichina may be present in the

meat, it will be killed and the meat will be safe to eat.

Surface Cooking

• Always use the LITE position (on models with

electric ignition) or the HI position (on models

with standing pilots) when igniting the top

burners and make sure the burners have ignited.

• Never leave the surface burners unattended at

high flame settings, Boilovers cause smoking and

greasy spillovers that may catch on fire.

• Adjust the top burner flame size so it does not

extend beyond the edge of the cook'ware. Excessive

flame is hazardous.

• Use only dry pot holders--moist or damp pot holders

on hot surfaces may result in burns from steam.

• Do not let pot holders come near open flames

when lifting cookware. Do not use a towel or other

bulky cloth in place of a pot holder.

• To minimize the possibility of burns, ignidon of

flammable materials and spillage, turn cookware

handles toward the side or back of the range without

letting them extend over adjacent burners.

• Always turn the surface burners to OFF before

removing cookware,

• Carefully watch foods being fried at a high flame

setting.

• Never block the vents (air openings) of the range.

They provide the air inlet and outlet that are

necessary for the range to operate properly with

correct combustion. Air openings are located in the

following places:

--Oven vent at the rear of' the cooktop.

---_r intake under the broiler drawer.

--Mr vent at the top of the oven door.

. Do not use a wok on models with sealed burners

ff the wok has a round metal ring that is placed

over the burner grate to support the wok. This

ring acts as a heat trap, which may damage the

burner grate and burner head. Also, it may cause the

burner to work improperly, This may cause a carbon

monoxide level above that allowed by current

standards, resulting in a health hazard°

, Foods for flying should be as dry as possible. Frost

on frozen foods or moisture on fresh foods can cause

hot fat to bubble up and over the sides of the pan_

* Use the least possible amount of fat for effective

shallow or deepffat frying. Filling the pan too full

of fat can cause spillovers when fbod is added.

. If a combination of oils or fats will be used

in frying, stir together before heating or as fats

melt slowly°

° Always heat fat slowly and watch as it heats.

° Use a deep-fat thermometer whenever possible to

prevent overheating fat beyond the smoking point.

° Never try to move a pan of hot fat, especially a

deep fat fryer. Wait until the fat is coolo

"XVhen using glass coolcware, make sure it is

designed for top-of-range cooking.

o Use proper pan size. Avoid pans that are unstable or

easily tipped. Select cookware having flat bottoms

large enough to properly contain food and avoid

boilovers and spillovers and large enough to cover

burner grates_This will both save cleaning time and

prevent hazardous accumulations of food, since heavy

spattering or spiltovers left on the range can ignite.

Use pans with handles that can be easily grasped and

will remain cool.

° Keep all plastics away from the top burners.

* Do not leave plastic

items on me _3_-__

coo_op--mey may __ _t_.

melt if left too close _ ___.._

to the vent.

Vent appearance and iocation vary

• Do not leave any items on the cooktop. The hot

air from the vent may ignite flammable items and

will increase pressure in closed containers, which may

cause them to burst_

° To avoid the possibility of a burn, always be

certain that the controls for all burners are at the

OFF position and all grates are cool before

attempting to remove them.

* When flaming foods are under the hood, turn the

fan off. The fan, if operatinga may spread the flames.

. If the range is located near a window, do not hang

10ng curtains that could blow over the top burners

and create a fire hazard_

* When a pilot goes out (on models with standing

pilots), you will detect a faint odor of gas as your

signal to relight the pilot° When relighting the pilot,

mal_e sure the burner controls are in the OFF

position, and follow instructions in the Installation

Instructions to relight.

o If you smell gas, and you have already made sure the

pilots are lit (on models with standing pilots), turn

off the gas to the range and ca_ a qualified service

technician_ Never use an open flame to locate a leako

Important Safety Instructions (continued)

Baking, Broiling and Roasting

* Do not use the oven for a storage area. Items

stored in the oven can ignite.

. Stand away from the range when opening the

door of a hot oven. The hot air and steam that

escape can cause burns to hands, face and eyes.

, Keep the oven free from grease buildup.

. Place the oven shelves in the desired position

while the oven is cool.

• Pulling out the sheff to the shelf-stop is a

convenience in lifting heavy foods. It is also a

precaution against burns from touching hot

surfaces of the door or oven walls. The lowest

position (R) is not designed to slide.

• Do not heat unopened food containers. Pressure

could build up and the container could burst,

causing an injury.

" Do not use aluminum foil anywhere in the oven

except as described in this manual. Misuse could

result in a fire hazard or damage to the range.

o When using cooking or roasting bags in the oven,

follow the manufacturer's directionsr

° Use only glass cookware that is recommended for

use in gas ovens.

• Always remove broiler pan from the oven or the

broiler compartment as soon as you finish broiling.

Grease left in the pan can catch on fire if oven is used

without removing the grease from the broiler pan.

° When broiling, if meat is too close to the flame,

the fat may ignite. Trim excess fat to prevent

excessive flare-ups.

° Make sure the broiler pan is in place correctly to

reduce the possibility of grease fires.

• If you should have a grease fire in the broiler pan,

turn the oven off and keep the broiler compartment

door closed to contain fire until it burns out.

Self-Cleaning Oven

• Do not clean the door gasket. The door gasket is

essential for a good sealo Care should be taken not to

rub, damage or move the gasket.

• Do not use oven deaners. No commercial oven

cleaner or oven liner protective coating of any kind

should be used in or around any part of the oven.

Residue from oven cleaners will damage the inside of

the oven when the self-clean cycle is used.

• Before serf-cleaning the oven, remove the broiler

pan, grid, the shelves and other cookware.

• CJean only parts listed in this Use and Care Manual.

• Keep the range dean and free of accumulations of

grease or spillovers, which may ignite.

• Be sure to wipe up excess spillage before starting

the serf-dean cycle.

" If the self-cleaning mode malfimctions, turn the

oven off and disconnect the power supply. Have it

serviced by a qualified technician.

How Does This Cool(top Compare to

Your Old One?

Your new cooktop has gas burners. If you are used to

cooldng with induction or other electric surface units,

you will notice some differences when you use gas

burners.

The best types of' cookware to use, plus heat-up and

cool-down times, depend upon the type of burner or

surface unit you have.

The fblIowing chart will help you to understand the

differences between gas burner cooktops and any other

type of cooktop you may have used in the past.

How It Works

Flames heat the pans directly Pan tininess is not critical to cooking results,

but pans should be well balanced° Gas burners heat the pan right away and

change heat settings right away,When you turn the control off, cooking stops

right away.

Heats by direct contact with the pan and by heating the air under the pan. For

best cooking results, use good quality pans_ Electric coils are more forgiving

of warped pans than radiant or solid disks. Heats up quickly but does not

change heat settings as quickly as gas or induction, Electric coils stay hot

enough to continue cooking for a short time afterthey are turned off[

Heats by direct contact with the pan, so pans must be flat on the bottom for

good cooking results. Heats up and cools down more slowly than electric

coils. The disk stays hot enough to continue cooking after it is turned off

Remove the pan from the solid disk if you want the cooking to stop,

Heat travels to the glass surface and then to the coulcwase, so pans must be

flat on the bottom for good cooking results. The glass cooktop stays hot

enough to continue cooking after it is turned off Remove the pan from the

surface unit if you want cooking to stop_

Pans must be made of ferrous metals (metal that arttacts a magnet). Heat is

produced by a magnetic circuit between the coil and the pan° Heats up right

away and changes heat settings right away, like a gas cooktop. After turning

the control off, the glass cooktop is hot from the heat of the pan, but cooking

stops right away.

Surface Cooking

Lighting Instructions

Your surface burners are lighted by electric ignition,

eliminating the need for standing pilots with

constantly burning flames°

In case of a power failure, you can light the surface

burners on your range with a march_ Hold a lighted

match to the burner, then turn the knob to the HTE

position. Use extreme caution when lighting burners

in this manner.

Surface burners in use when an electrical power failure

occurs will continue to operate normally_

The electrode of the spark igniter is exposed. When

one burner is turned to LITE, all the burners spatlc

Do not disassemble or clean around any burner while

another burner is on._An electric shock may result,

which could cause you to knock over hot cookware.

Surface Burner Controls

The knobs that turn the surface burners on and off are

located on the contro! panel in front of the burners.

The two knobs on the left control the left front and

left rear burners. The two knobs on the right control

the right front and right rear burners.

On ranges with sealed burners:

• The smaller burner (right rear position) will give

the best simmer results° It offers precise cooking

performance for delicate foods, such as sauces or

foods which need to cook over low heat for a

long time. tt can be turned down to a very low

simmer setting.

• The right front burner is higher powered than the

others and will bring liquids to a boil quicker

(natural gas installations only)_

Surface Light

(on some models)

Use the switch on the control panel to turn the light

on and off.

Before Lighting a Burner

• If drip pans are supplied with your range, they

should be used at all times.

• Mal_e sure all grates on the range are in place before

using any burner.

To Light a Surface Burner

Push the control knob in

and turn it to LITE. You will

hear a little clicking noise--

the sound of the electric spark

igniting the burner.

After Lighting a Burner

• After the burner ignites, turn the knob to adjust the

flame size.

• Check to be sure the burner you turned on is the one

you want to use.

° Do not operate a burner for extended periods of

time without having cookware on the grate_ The

finish on the grate may chip without cookware to

absorb the heat°

• Be sure the burners and grates are cool before you

place your hand, a pot holder, cleaning cloths or

other materials on them.

How to Select Flame Size

Watch the flame, not the knob, as you reduce heat.

The flame size on a gas burner should match the

coolcware you are using.

FOR SAFE HANDLING OF

COOKWARE NEVER LET :

THE FLAME EXTEND UP "_ " :

THE SIDES OF THE

COOKWARE. Any flame

larger than the bottom of the

cookware is wasted and only

serves to heat the handle.

(continued nem page)

Surface Cooking coo iouod/

Top-of-Range Coolovare

Aluminum: Medium-weight cookware is

recommended because it heats quicldy and evenly.

Most foods brown evenly in an aluminum skillet. Use

saucepans with tight-fitting lids when cootdng with

minimum amounts ofwater_

Cast-Iron: If heated slowly, most skillets will give

satisfactory results.

Enamelware: Under some conditions, the enamel of

some cookware may melto Follow cookware

manufacturer's recommendations for cooldng methods.

Glass: There are two types of glass cookware--those

for oven use only and those for top-of-range cooking

(saucepans, coffee and teapots). Glass conducts heat

very slowly.

Heatproof Glass Ceramic: Can be used for either

surface or oven cooking. It conducts heat very slowly

and cools very slowly. Check cook'ware manufacturer's

directions to be sure it can be used on gas ranges_

Stainless Steel: This metal alone has poor heating

properties and is usually combined with copper,

aluminum or other metals for improved heat

distribution. Combination metal skillets generally

work satisfactorily if used at medium heat as the

manufacturer recommends°

Wok This Way

(on models with sealed burners)

We recommend that you use

a flat-bottomed wok.. They

are available at your local

retail store.

A traditional round bottom wok can be used with

Wok Holder accessory, mode! JXWK which can be

ordered from your appliance dealer. The Wok Holder

fits on top of the range grate to provide support and

proper air circulation for traditional round bottom

woks onlyo Do not use flat bottomed woks with the

Wok Holder.

Do not use a wok on any

other support rL,lg. Placing

the ring over the burner

grate may cause the burner

to work improperly, ,_:y

resulting in carbon

monoxide levels above allowable current standards_

This could be dangerous to your health. Do not try to

use such woks without the ring unless you are using

the Wok Holder. You could be seriously burned if the

wok tipped over.

Stove Top Grills

(on models with sealed burners)

Do not use stove top grills _r,_ ,_i_;_

on your sealed gas burners.

If you use the stove top

grill on the sealed gas

burner it will cause ..... i:

incomplete combustion

and can result in exposure to carbon monoxide levels

above allowable current standards. This can be

hazardous to your health.

The oven burner and broil burner are lighted by

electric ignition.

To light either burner, turn the OVEN SET knob

to the desired temperature. The burner should ignite

within 30-90 seconds.

After the oven reaches the selected temperature, the

oven burner cycles--off completely, then on with a

full flame--to keep the oven temperature controlled°

Power Outage

CdtUTION: Do not make any attempt to operate

the electric ignition oven during an electrical power

failure_ The oven or broiler cannot be lit during a

power failure., Gas will not flow unless the glow

bar is hot.

If the oven is in use when a power failure occurs,

the oven burner shuts offand cannot be re-lit until

power is restored.

OvenVents

The oven is vented through duct openings at the rear

of' the cooktop_ See the Features section. Do not block

these openings when cooking in the oven--it is

important that the flow of hot air from the oven and

fresh air to the oven burners be uninterrupted°

* The vent openings and nearby surfaces may

become hot. Do not touch them.

° Handles of pots and pans on the cooktop may

become hot ff left too dose to the vent.

* Do not leave

plastic items on the

cooktop--they

may melt ffleft too

dose to the vent. Vent appearance and t0cation vary

° Metal items will become very hot ff they are left

on the cooktop and could cause burns.

* Do not leave any items on the cooktop. The hot

air from the vent may ignite flammable items and

will increase pressure in closed containers, which may

cause them to burst.

Oven Shelves

The shelves are

designed with stop-

locks so, when placed

correctly on the shelf

supports, they will stop

before coming

completely out of the

oven and wil! not tilt

when you are removing

food from them or placing food on them.

When placing cookware on a shelf, pull the shelf out

to the bump on the shelf support. Place the cookware

on the shelf, then slide the shelf back into the oven.

This will eliminate reaching into the hot oven.

To remove a shelf

from the oven, pull

it toward you, tilt

the front end upward

and ptfll the shelfout.

To replace, place the

shelf on the shelf

support with the

stop-locks (curved

extension of shelf) facing up and toward the rear of the

oven. Tilt up the front and push the shelf toward the

back of the oven until it goes past the bump on the

shelf support_ Then lower the front of the shelf and

push it all the way back.

Shelf Positions

The oven has five shelf

supports for baking and

roasting--A (bottom), B, C,

D and E (top). it also has a

special low shelf position (R)

for roasting extra large items,

such as a large turkey. The

shelf is not designed to slide

out at this position. The shelf

positions for cooking are

suggested in the Baking,

Roasting and Broiling sections.

Automatic Oven Shut Off

As a safety feature, this oven will automatically shut

itself off after 12 hours. On models with touch pad

clock controls this feature may be deactivated to allow

the oven to be left on for more than i2 hours_

To deactivate the Automatic Oven Shut-Off, press and

hold both the increase and decrease MINo pads for

about 4 seconds. The display wil! change from time of

day to show "off _'.

To reactivate the feature, press and hold both the

increase and the decrease MtNo pads for about

4 seconds. The display will change from time of day to

show "on".

Oven Moisture

As your oven heats up, the temperature change of

the air in the oven may cause water droplets to

form on the door glass. These droplets are harmless

and will evaporate as the oven continues to heat up.

Baking

Do not lock the oven door with the latch during

baking. The latch is used for self-deaning only.

Your oven temperature is controlled very accurately

using an oven control system_ It is recommended that

you operate the oven for a number of weeks to become

familiar with your new oven's performance_ If you

think an adjustment is necessary, see the Adjust the

Oven Thermostat section.

How to SetYour Range for Baking

To avoid possible burns, place the shelves in the

correct position before you turn the oven on_

1. Close the oven door, Turn the OVEN SET knob to

the temperature you desire_

2. Check the food for doneness at the minimum time

on the recipe° Cook longer if necessary,

3. Turn the OVEN SET knob to OFF and then

remove the food

Oven Shelves

Arrange the oven shelf

or shelves in the

desired locations while O

the oven is cool, The

correct shelf position O

depends on the kind

of food and the

browning desired_ As a

general rule, place most foods in the middle of the

oven, on either shelf position B or C. See the following

chart for suggested shelf positions.

Preheating

Preheat the oven if the recipe calls for it. Preheat means

bringing the oven up to the specified temperature

before putting the food in the oven. To preheat, set the

oven at the correct temperature--selecting a higher

temperature does not shorten preheat time.

Preheating is necessary for good results when baking

cakes, cookies, pastry and breads. For most casseroles and

roasts, preheating is not necessary. For ovens without a

preheat indicator light or tone, preheat !0 minutes. After

the oven is preheated place the food in the oven as

quickly as possible to prevent heat from escaping.

Baking Pans

Use the proper baking pan. The type of finish on the

pan determines the amount of browning that will occur.

• Dark, rough or dull pans absorb heat resulting in a

browner, crisper crust. Use this type for pies.

• Shiny, bright and smooth pans reflect heat, resulting

in a lighter, more delicate browning. Cakes and

cookies require this type of pan.

• Glass baking dishes also absorb heat. When baking in

glass baking dishes, the temperature may need to be

reduced by 25°E (13°C0).

Pan Placement

For even cooking and proper browning, there must be

enough room for air circulation in the oven. Baking

results will be better if baking pans are centered as

much as possible rather than being placed to the front

or m the back of the oven°

Pans should not touch each other or the walls of the

oven. Allow 1- to l_-inch (2.5- to 4-cm) space

between pans as well as from the back of the oven, the

door and the sides. If you need to use two shelves,

stagger the pans so one is not directly above the other.

Baking Guides

When using prepared baking mixes, follow package

recipe or instructions for the best baking results.

(continued next page)

Baking (continued)

Cooldes

When baking cookies,

flat cookie sheets

(without sides) produce

better-!ooking cookies.

Cookies baked in a jelly

roll pan (short sides all

around) may have darker

edges and pale or light

browning may occur.

Do not use a cookie sheet so large that it touches

the walls or the door of the oven.

For best results, use only one cookie sheet in the oven

at a time.

Pies

For best results, bake pies in dark, rough or dull pans

to produce a browner, crisper cnlst. Frozen pies in foil

pans should be placed on an aluminum cookie sheet

for baking since the shiny foil pan reflects heat away

from the pie crust; the coolde sheet helps retain it.

Aluminum Foil

Never entirely cover a

shelf with aluminum

foil. This will disturb the

heat circulation and

result in poor baking° A

smallersheet of foil may

be used to catch a

spillover by placing it on

a lower shelf several

inches below the food.

Don't Peek

Set the timer for the estimated cooking time and do

not open the door to look at your food. Most recipes

provide minimum and maximum baking times such as

"bake 30-40 " "minutes.

DO NOT open the door to check until the minimum

time. Opening the oven door frequently during

cooking allows heat to escape and makes baiting times

longer° Your baking results may also be affected.

Cakes

When baking cakes, warped or bent pans will cause

uneven baking results and poorly shaped products.

A cake baked in a pan larger than the recipe

recommended will usually be crisper, thinner and drier

than it should be_ If baked in a pan smafler than

recommended, it may be undercooked and batter may

overflow. Check the recipe to make sure the pan size

used is the one recommended.

Timed Baking (o0some models)

How toTime Bake

Do not lock the oven door with the latch during

timed baking. The latch is used for serf-cleaning

o ly.

The oven control allows you to turn the oven on or off'

automatically at specific times that you set. Examples

of Immediate Start (oven turns on now and you set it

to turn off automatically) and Delay Start and Stop

(setting the oven to turn on automatically at a later

time and turn off at a preset Stop Time) will be

described.

NOTE: Before beginning, make sure the oven clock

shows the correct time of day.

To set the clock, first press the CLOCK

pad. Then press the HOUR and MIN. pads

until the correct time of day is displayed.

How to Set Immediate Start and

Automatic Stop

To avoid possible burns, place the shelves in the

correct position before you turn the oven on.

The oven will turn on immediately and cook for a

selected length of time. At the end of Cook Time the

oven wil! turn off automatically_

1. Press the COOK TIME ON/OFF pad.

/t"_ 2. Press the HOUR and MIN. pads

L_,fl until the desired length of baking

.0ua M_N time appears in the display°

Turn the OVEN SET knob to the desired

temperature.

The oven will turn on. The display will show the

Cook Time remaining. When the oven reaches the

set temperature, a tone sounds. The oven will

continue to cook for the programmed amount of

time, then shut off automatically.

When the oven automatically tarns off the

AUTOMATIC OVEN light will flash and the oven

will signal. Turn the OVEN SET knob to OFF to

stop the flashes and signal°

Remove the food from the oven. Remember, foods

that are left in the oven continue cooking after the

controls are off[

NOTE: Foods that spoil easily, such as milk, eggs, fish,

stuffings, poultry and pork, should not be allowed to

sit for more than 1 hour before or after cooking. Room

temperature promotes the growth of harmful bacteria.

Be sure that the oven light is off because heat from the

bulb will speed harmful bacteria grova.h.

NOTE:

• The low temperature zone of this range [between

WARM and 200°E (93°CJ] is available to keep hot

cooked foods warm. Food kept in the oven longer

than two hours at these low temperatures may spoil,

• Foods that spoil easily, such as milk, eggs, fish,

stuffings, poultry and pork, should not be allowed to

sit for more than one hour before or after cooking°

Room temperature promotes the growth of harmful

bacteria. Be sure that the oven light is off because heat

from the bulb will speed harmfu! bacteria growth.

Questions and Answers

Q: Can I use the minute timer during oven

cookin_

A. The minute timer can be used during any

cooking function.

Q: Can I change the time of day on the dock while

I'm Time Baking in the oven?

A. The time of day on the clock should not be

changed during any program that uses the oven

timer. You must either stop those programs or wait

until they are finished before changing the time.

Adjust the Oven Thermostat---Do it Yourselfi

You may find that your new oven cooks differently

than the one it replaced. We recommend that you use

your new oven for a few weeks to become more

familiar with it, following the times given in your

recipes as a guider

If you think your new oven is too hot or too cold,

you can adjust the thermostat yourself. If you think

it is too hot, adjust the thermostat to make it cooler.

If you think it is too cool, adjust the thermostat to

make it hotter.

We do not recommend the use oflnexpensive

thermometers, such as those found in grocery stores,

to check the temperature setting of your new oven.

These thermometers may vary 20-40°E (11-22°C.).

To Adjust the Thermostat:

1. Put the OVEN SET knob in the OFF position.

_2.

HOUR

Press and hold the HOUR increase and

the HOUR decrease pads for 5 seconds

until the display changes.

3, Immediately, before display changes back, press the

HOUR increase or decrease pad to increase or

decrease the temperature in 5 degree increments.

The oven temperature can be increased up to 35°E

(I9°C.) hotter or decreased 35°E (19°C.) cooler,

If the oven adjustment is set cooler than the factory

setting a minus sign "-" and the offset temperature

will appear in the display.

4, Wait several seconds for the control to automatically

set and return to its previous setting.

NOTE: This adjustment will not affect the broiling or

the self-cleaning temperaturesr The adjustment will be

retaAned in memory after a power failure,

To Adjust the Temperature on Models

with Only an OVEN SET Knob

1. Put the knob in the OFF position.

2. Pull the knob off by pulling straight out.

3. Press and hold the HOTTER or COOLER

button for 5 seconds to make the oven 20°E

(11°C.) hotter or 20°E (11°C.) cooler.

(appearance may vary)

When you are adjusting the thermostat, the

following lights will flash indicating where the

thermostat will be set when you release the

adjustment button:

OVEN ON indicates the thermostat wilt be set at the

factory setting.

PREHEATED indicates the thermostat will be set

20°E (11°C.) hotter.

Roasting

Do not lock the oven door with the latch during

roasting. The latch is used for self-deaning only.

Roasting is cooking by dry heat. Tender meat or

poultry can be roasted uncovered in your oven.

Roasting temperatures, which should be low and

steady, keep spattering to a minimum.

The oven has a special -_ >

low shelf position (R)

just above the oven

bottom° Use it when

extra cooking space is

needed, for example,

when masting a large

turkey_ The shelfis not

designed to slide out at

this position°

Roasting is really a baking procedure used for meats°

Therefore, the oven controls are set for Baking. (You

may hear a slight clicking sound indicating the oven is

working properly,)

Most meats continue to cook slightly while standing

after being removed from the ovem Recommended

standing time for roasts is 10 to 20 minutes, This

allows the roasts to firm up and makes them easier to

carve. The internal temperature will rise about 5° to

10°E (3° to 6°C.). If you wish to compensate for the

temperature rise, remove the roast from the oven when

its internal temperature is 5° to 10°E (3 ° to 6°C.) less

than the temperature shown in the Roasting Guide°

Remember that food will continue to cook in the hot

oven and therefore should be removed when the

desired internal temperature has been reached.

1, Position oven shelf at

position B for small size

roast [3 to 5 lbs.(1.3 to

2.3 kg)] and at position

R for larger roasts_

2. Check the weight of the meat. Place the meat

fat-side-up or the poultry breast-side-up on roasting

grid in a shallow pan° The melting fat will baste the

meat. Select a pan as close to the size of the meat as

possible° (The broiler pan with grid is a good pan

for this.)

3. Turn the OVEN SET knob to the desired

temperature_ See the Roasting Guide for

temperatures and approximate cooking times.

4. When roasting is finished, turn the OVEN SET

knob to OFF and then remove the food from

the oven.

Dual Shelf Cooking

This allows more than one food to be cooked at the

same time. For example: While roasting a 20-lb,

(10 l_g) turkey on shelf position R, a second shelf'

(if so equipped) may be added on position D so that

scalloped potatoes can be cooked at the same time.

Calculate the total cooking time to enable both dishes

to complete cooking at the same time° Allow !5-20

minutes of additional cooking time for the potatoes.

Use of Aluminum Foil

You can use aluminum

foil to line the broiler

pan. This makes clean

up easier when using

the pan for marinating,

cooking with fruits,

cooking heavily cured

meats or basting food during cooking.

Press the foil tighdy around the inside of the pan.

Frozen Roasts

Frozen roasts of beef, pork, lamb, etc., can be started

without thawing, but allow 15 to 25 minutes per

pound (450 grams) additional time [15 minutes per

pound for roasts under 5 pounds (2.3 kg), more time

for larger roasts]°

Make sure poultry is thawed before roasting. Unthawed

poultry often does not cook evenly° Some commercial

frozen poultry can be cooked successfully without

thawing. Follow the directions given on the package label.

Broiling

Do not lock the oven door with the latch during

broiling. The latch is used for serf-deanlng only.

Broiling iscooking food by direct heat from above the

food. Most fish and tender cuts of meat can be broiled_

Follow these directions to keep spattering and smoking

to a minimum.

The oven door should be closed during broiling.

Turnthefoodonlyonce

during cooking. Time the

foods for the first side

according to the Broiling

Guide.

Turn the food, then use

the times given for the

second side as a guide to

the preferred doneness.

1. If the meat has fat or gristle around the edge, cut

vertical slashes through both about 2" (5 cm) apart.

If desired, the fat may be trimmed, leaving a layer

about 1/8" (3 mm) thick°

2. Place the meat on the broiler grid in the broiler pan

which comes with the range. Always use the grid so

fat drips into the broiler pan; otherwise the juices

may become hot enough to catch fire°

3. Position the shelf on the recommended shelf

position as suggested in Broiling Guide.

4. Close the oven door but do not latch it. If the door

latch is moved to the right during a broil

operation the door may lock and you may not be

able ro open it until the oven cools.

5. Turn the OVEN SET knob to BROIL°

6. When broiling is finished, turn the OVEN SET

knob to OFE Remove the broiler pan from the

range and setve the food immediately. Leave the pan

outside the range to cool.

Use of Alurninum Foil

You can use aluminum

foil to line your broiler pan

and broiler grid. However,

you must mold the foil

tightly to the grid and cut

slits in it just like the grid.

Without the slits, the foil will prevent fat and meat

juices from draining to the broiler pan. The juices

cotdd become hot enough to catch on fire. If you do

not cut the slits, you are frying, not broiling.

Questions & Answers

Q.When broiling, is it necessary to always use a

grid in the pan?

Yes. Using the grid suspends the meat over the pan.

As the meat cooks, the juices fall into the pan, thus

keeping the meat drier. Jtfices are protected by the

grid and stay cooler, thus preventing excessive

spatter and smokingo

Q. Should I salt the meat before broiling?.

A. No. Salt draws out the juices and allows them to

evaporate. Always salt after cooking. Turn the meat

with tongs; piercing the meat with a fork also allows

the juices to escape. When broiling poultry or fish,

brush each side often with butter.

Q.Why are my meats not turning out as brown as

they should?

A. Check to see if you are using the recommended

shelf positiono Broil for the longest period of time

indicated in the Broiling Guide. Turn the food only

once during broiling.

Broiling Guide

The oven door must be closed during broiling.

. Always use the broiler pan and grid that comes with

your range. It is designed to minimize smoldng and

spattering by trapping juices in the shielded lower

part of the pan°

• For steaks and chops, slash fat evenly around outside

edges of meat. To slash, cut crosswise through outer

fat surface just to the edge of the meat. Use tongs to

turn meat over to prevent piercing the meat and

losing juices_

• If desired, marinate meats or chicl_n before broiling.

Or brush with barbecue sauce last 5 to 10 minutes only_

• When arranging food on the pan, do not let fatty

edges hang over the sides because dripping fat could

soil the oven.

• The broiler does not need to be preheate& However,

for very thin foods, or to increase browning, preheat

if desired.

• Frozen steaks can be broiled by positioning the

broiler pan and grid at next lowest shelf position arid

increasing cooking time given in this guide 1_ times

per side.

a ventilation fan or hood during the first self-clean cycle.

I. Remove the broiler pan, broiler grid, atl coolovare

and any aluminum foil from the oven--they cannot

withstand the high cleaning temperatures.

NOTE; Take the shelves out of the oven before you

begin the self-clean cycle.

2. Wipe up heavy soil on the oven bottom° If you

use soap, rinse thoroughly before self-cleaning to

prevent staining.

Do not use abrasives or oven deaners. Clean

the top, sides and outside fi:ont of the oven door

with soap and water.

Make sure the oven light bulb cover is in place.

Do not rub or clean the door gasket the fiberglass

material of the gasket has an extremely low resistance to

abrasion. An intact, wel!-fitting oven door gasket is

essential for energy-efficient oven operation and good

baldng restdts. If you notice the gasket becoming worn,

frayed or damaged in any way or if it has become

displaced on the door, you should have it replaced.

4. Close the oven door and make sure the oven light

is off. If the oven light is not turned off, the life of

the bulb wiU be shortened or it may burn out

immediately. The door latches automatically after

the clean cycle is set.

CAITHON: The grates and drip pans (on some

models) should never be cleaned in the self-

cleaning oven.

Do not use commercial oven cleaners or oven

protectors in or near the self-cleaning oven.

A combination of any of these products plus the high

clean cycle temperatures may damage the porcelain

finish of the oven

$. Clean spatters or soil on the oven front fim'ne and the

oven door outside the gasket with a dampened cloth°

The oven front frame and the oven door outside the

gasket do not get cleaned by the self-clean cycle. On

these areas, use detergent and hot water or a soap-

filled steel wool pad. Rinse well with a vinegar and

water solution. This will help prevent a brown residue

from forming when the oven is heated_ Buff these

areas with a dry cloth. Do not clean the gasket.

occurs, remove the surface burners from the range.

Burners lift out for cleaning. Hft up the cooktop and

then lift out the surface burners.

To remove burned-on food, soak the surface burner

in a solution of mild liquid detergent and hot water°

Soak the surface burner for 20 to 30 minutes, For

more stubborn stains, use a cleanser like Soft Scrub ®

brand or Bon Anti ®brand. Rinse well to remove any

traces of the cleanser that might dog the surface

burner openings. Do not use steel wool because it will

clog the surface burner openings and scratch the

surface burners. If the holes become clogged, clean

them with a sewing needle or twist tie.

Before putting the surface burner back, shake out

excess water and then dry it thoroughly by setting it in

a warm oven for 50 minutes. Then place it back in the

range, making sure it is properly seated and level

Check the flame pattern of each burner. If the flames

are "jumpy" (not steady), clean the holes again with a

sewing needle or twist tie°

Lift-Up Cool<top

(on models with standard twin burners)

Clean the area under the cooktop often. Built-up soil,

especially grease, may catch on fire.

To make cleaning easier, the cook'top may be lifted upo

To raise the cooktop:

1. Be sure the burners

are turned off.

2. Remove the grates.

3. Grasp the two front

burner wells and lift up.

Some models have dua! support rods that wiI1 hold the

cooktop up while you clean underneath it.

After cleaning under the cooktop with hot, soapy

water and a clean cloth, lower the cooktop. Be carefiA not

to pinch your fingers. Lower cooktop gently to avoid

blowing out pilot flames (on models with standing pi!ots).

Burner Grates

Lift out when cool.

The grates should be

washed regularly and,

of course, after

spillovers_ Wash them in hot, soapy water and rinse

with clean water. After cleaning, dry them thoroughly

by putting them in a warm oven for a few minutes. Do

not put the grates back on the range while they are

wet. When replacing the grates, be sure they're

positioned securely over the burners.

To prevent rusting on cast iron grates, apply a light

coating of cooking oil on the bottom of the grates.

To get rid of burned-on food, place the grates in a

covered container (or plastic bag) with 1/4 cup (62 ml)

ammonia to loosen the soil. Let sit overnight (or

approximately 12 hours), then scrub with a soap-filled

scouring pad if necessary. Rinse grates thoroughly and

dry completely before replacing them on the range top_

Although they're durable, the grates will gradually lose

their shine, regardless of' the best care you can give

them° This is due to their continual exposure to high

temperatures.

Do not operate a burner for an extended period of

time without cookware on the grate. The finish on

the grate may chip without coolcware to absorb the heat°

CAUTION: Do not dean the grates in a dishwasher

or in a self-deaning oven.

Oven Air Vents

Never block the vents (air openings) of the

range. They provide the air inlet and outlet that are

necessary for the range to operate properly with

correct combustion. Air openings are located at the

rear of the cooktop, at the top and bottom of the

oven door, and at the bottom of the range, under

the kick panel, storage drawer or broiler drawer

(depending on the model).

Cooktop Surface

(on some models)

To avoid damaging the porcelain enamel surface of

the cooktop and to prevent it from becoming dull,

dean up spills right away. Foods with a lot of acid

(tomatoes, sauerkraut, fi'uit juices, etc.) or foods with

high sugar content could cause a dull spot if allowed to

sit. When the surface has cooled, wash and rinse.

For other spills such as fat spatterings, etc., wash with

soap and water once the surface has cooled. Then rinse

and polish with a dry cloth°

Do not store flammable materials in an oven or

near the cooktop. Do not store or use combustible

materials, gasoline or other flammable vapors and

liquids in the vicinity of this or any other appliance.

Drip Pans

(on some models)

Remove the grates and lift

out the drip pans. The drip

pans can be cleaned in a

dishwasher or by hand.

To get rid of burned-on

food, place the drip pans in

a covered container (or plastic bag) with 1/4 cup (62 ml)

ammonia to loosen the soil. Then scrub with a soap-filled

scouring pad if necessary.

When replacing the drip pans, make sure they are in the

correct position.

CAUTION: Do not clean the drip pans in a

self-cleaning oven.

Brushed Chrome Cooktop

(on some models)

Clean the brushed chrome top

with warm, soapy water or Bon

Ami ® brand cleanser and

immediately dry it with a dean,

Both the broiler pan and grid can also be cleaned in a

dishwasher.

Do not store a soiled broiler pan and grid anywhere

in the range.

CAUTION: Do not clean the broiler pan or grid in

a seff-deaning oven.

Oven Shelves

Clean the shelves with an abrasive cleanser or steel

wool. After cleaning, rinse the shelves with clean water

and dry with a clean cloth.

NOTE: Take the shelves out of the oven before you

begin the seLiLclean cycle.

Oven Bottom

The oven bottom has a

porcelain enamel finish.

To make cleaning easier,

protect the oven bottom

from excessive spillovers by

placing a cookie sheet on

the shelf below tile shelf

you are cooking on. You

can use aluminum foil if

you do not cover the whole shelf. This is particularly

important when baking a fruit pie or other foods with

a high acid content. Hot fruit fillings or other foods

that are highly acidic (such as tomatoes, sauerkraut and

sauces with vinegar or lemon juice) may cause pitting

and damage to the porcelain enamel surface and

should be wiped lip immediately.

To clean up spillovers, use soap and water, an abrasive

cleaner or soap-filled steel wool pad° Rinse well to

remove any soap before self-cleaning.

Surface Light and Starter

door slowly and evenly over both hinges at the same

time. If the hinges snap back against the oven frame,

pull them back out.

TO CLEAN THE DOOR:

(Do not immerse the door in water°)

Inside of the door:

• Because the area inside the gasket is cleaned during

the self-clean cycle, you do not need to clean this by

hand. Any soap left on the liner causes additional

stains when the oven is heated.

• The area outside the gasket can be cleaned with a

scouring pad.

• Do not rub or dean the door gasket--the

fiberglass material of the gasket has an extremely low

resistance to abrasion. An intact and well-fitting oven

door gasket is essential for energy-efficient oven

operation and good baking results. If you notice the

gasket becoming worn, frayed or damaged in any

way or if it has become displaced on the door, you

should have it replaced.

illustration in this section,)

• C_kUTION: Items of interest to children should not

be stored in cabinets above a range or on the

backsplash of a range--children climbing on the

range to reach items could be seriously injured,

WARNING

All ranges can tip and injury could

result_ To prevent accidental tipping

of the range, attach an approved

Anti-Tip device to the wall. (See

Installing the Anti-Tip Device in this

section..) To check if the device is

installed and engaged properly,

carefidly tip the range forward. The

Anti-Tip device should engage and

prevent the range from tipping over.

If you pull the range out from the

wall for any reason, make sure the Anti-Tip device is

engaged when you push the range back against the wall.

• For your safety, never use your range for warming or

heating the room. Your oven and cooktop are not

designed to heat your kitchen. Top burners should

not be operated without cookware on the grate° Such

abuse could result in fire and damage to your range

and will void your warranty.

• Do not store or use combustible materials, gasoline

or other flammable vapors and liquids in the vicinity

of this or any other appliance_ Explosions or fires

could result_

" Do not use oven for a storage area° Items stored in

the oven can ignite.

" Do not let cooking grease or other flammable

materials accumulate in or near the range.

GENERAL

• See the Dimensions and Clearances illustration in

this section for all rough-in and spacing dimensions.

These dimensions must be met for safe use of your

range, The location of the electrical outlet and pipe

opening (see Gas Pipe and Electric Outlet Locations)

may be adjusted to meet specific requirements.

• The range may be placed with 0" (0 cm) clearance

(flush) at the back wall and side wa_s of the range.

LOCATION

Do not locate the range where it may be subject to

strong drafts. Any openings in the floor or wall

behind the range should be sealed. Make sure the

openings around the base of the range that supply fresh

air for combustion and ventilation are not obstructed by

carpeting or woodwork.

PROTECTYOUR FLOOR

"/'our range, like many other household items, is heavy

and can settle into soft floor coverings such as

cushioned vinyl or carpeting_ Use care when moving

the range on this type of flooring. It is recommended

that the following simple and inexpensive instructions

be followed to protect your floor.

The range should be installed on a sheet of plywood

(or similar material). When the flaor covering ends at the

front afthe range, the area that the range will rest on

should be built up with plywood to the same level or

higher than the floor covering. This will allow the

range to be moved for cleaning or servicing.

HODELAND SERIAL NUHBER

LOCATION

Depending on your range, you'll find the model and

serial numbers on a label on the front frame of the range,

behind the storage drawer, broiler drawer or kicli panel°

TOOLSYOU WILL NEED

• Phillips and flat-blade screwdrivers

• Pencil and ruler

• Two pipe wrenches (one for backup)

• 1_" open-end or adjustable wrench

° Nut drivers or wrenches: .3/16" and 1/4"

ADDITIONAL HATERIALS YOU

HAY NEED

• Gas line shut-off valve

• Pipe joint sealant or U-L-approved pipe thread tape

with Teflon* that resists action of natural and LP gases

• Flexible metal appliance connector (112" I.D.).

A 5-foot (1.5 m) length is recommended for ease of

installation but other lengths are acceptable. Never

use an old connector when installing a new range.

• Flare union adapter for connection to gas supply line

(314" or 112" NPT x 1/2" I.Do)

• Flare union adapter for connection to pressure

regulator on range (t/2" NPT x 1/2" LD,)

•Teflon: Registered trademark of DuPont

(c_ntinued next page)

Installation instructions (continued)

PREPARATION

° Remove all tape and packaging. Lift up the cooktop

(on models with standard twin burners) and remove

any packing material under it. Make sure the

standard twin burners are properly seated and level.

• Remove plastic film that covers some chrome parts

(around oven door, side trim).

• Take the accessory pack out of the oven°

• Check to be sure that no range parts have come loose

during shipping.

STEP !

Provide Adequate Gas Supply

Your range is designed to operate at a pressure of 4"

(I0.2 cm) of water column on natural gas or, if&signed

for LP gas (propane or butane), 10" (25.4 cm) of water

column. Make sure you are supplying your range with

the type of gas for which it is designed. This range is

convertible for use on natural or propane gas° If you

decide to use this range on LP gas, conversion must be

made by a qualified LP installer before attempting to

operate the range on that gas.

For proper operation, the pressure of natural gas

supplied to the regulator must be between 4" (10o2 cm)

and 13" (33 cm) of water column. For LP gas, the

pressure supplied must be between I 0" (25,4 cm) and

13" (.3.3 cm) of water column. When checking for

proper operation of the regulator, the inlet pressure must

be at least 1" (2.5 cm) greater than the operating

(manifold) pressure as given above. The pressure

regulator located at the inlet of the range manifold must

remain in the supply line regardless of whether natural

or LP 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 feet (1.5 m)

in length for ease of installation. In Canada, flexible

connectors must be single wail metal connectors no

longer than 6 feet (1.8 m) in length.

STEP 2

Connect the Range to Gas

Shut off the main gas supply valve before disconnecting

the old range and leave it off until new hook-up has

been completed. Don't forget to relight the pilot on

other gas appliances when you turn the gas back ono

Because hard piping restricts movement of the range,

the use of an A.GA.-certified flexible metal appliance

connector is recommended unless local codes require a

hard-piped connection. Never use an old connector

when installing a new range_ If the hard piping

method is used, you must carefully align the pipe; the

range cannot be moved after the connection is made.

To prevent gas lealcs, put pipe joint compound on, or

wrap pipe thread tape with Teflon* around, all male

(externa!) pipe threads.

Installation Instructions (continued)

1. Install a manual gas line shut-offvalve in the gas line

in an easily accessed location outside of the range.

Make sure everyone operating the range knows where

and how to shut off the gas supply to the ranger

2. Instal! male !12" flare union adapter to the I12"

NPT internal thread elbow at inlet of pressure

regulator,, On models equipped with standard twin

burners, install the male pipe thread end of the 1t2"

flare union adapter to the 1/2" NPT internal thread

at inlet of' pressure regulator,, Use a back-up wrench

on the regulator fitting to avoid damage.

When installing the range from the front, remove the

90 ° elbow for easier installation.

3. Install male 112" or 314" flare union adapter to the

NPT internal thread of the manual shut-offvalve,

taking care to back up the shut-off valve to keep it

from turning.

4. Connect flexible metal appliance connector to the

adapter on the range. Position range to permit

connection at the shut-offvalveo

5. When all connections have been made, make sure all

range controls are in the OFF position and turn on the

main gas supply valve. Use a liquid leak detector at all

joints and connections to check for leaks in the system.

C,AUTION- DO NOT USE A FLAME TO

CHECK FOR GAS LEAKS.

When using test pressures greater than 1t2 psig to

pressure test the gas supply system of the residence,

disconnect the range and individual shut-off'valve

from the gas supply piping. When using test pressures

of 112 psig or less to test the gas supply system, simply

isolate the range from the gas supply system by c!osing

the individual shut-off valve.

STEP 3

Electrical Connections

(on some models)

Hectrical Requirements

120-volt, 60 Hertz, properly grounded branch circuit

protected by a 15-amp or 20-amp circuit breaker or

time delay fuse.

Extension Cord Cautions

Because of potential safety hazards associated with

certain conditions, we strongly recommend 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 Ul_-listed, 3-wire grounding-type appliance

extension cord and that the current carrying rating of

the cord in amperes be equivalent to, or greater than,

the branch circuit rating,.

Grounding--IMPORTANT (Please read carefully)

FOR PERSONAL SAFETY, THIS APPLIANCE

MUST BE PROPERLY GROUNDED.

The power cord of this PREFERRED ._

of electric shock hazard

from this appliance,

The customer should have the wall receptacle and

circuit checked by a qualified electrician to make sure

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

properly grounded three-prong walt receptacle_

DO NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, CtYF

OR REMOVE THE THIRD (GROUND) PRONG

FROM THE POWER CORD.

A: Usage Situations Where Appliance Power Cord

W'dl Be Disconnected Infrequently.

TEMPORARY METHOD

(Adapter plugs not

permitted in Canada) ---_ _,_

Align large prongs/slots _ !

\ / )t / _-JEnsure proper ground

\ /[ i and firm connection

L_ before use

An adapter may be used only on a 15-amp circuit. Do

nor use an adapter on a 20-amp circuit. Where local

codes permit, a TEMPORARY CONNECTION may

be made to a properly grounded two-prong wall

receptacle by the use of a UL-listed adapter, available

at most hardware stores. The larger slot in the adapter

must be aligned with the larger slot in the wall

receptacle to provide proper polarity in the connection

of the power cord.

CAUTION: Attaching the adapter ground terminal

to the walt receptacle cover screw does not ground

the appliance unless the cover screw is metal, and

not insulated, and the wall receptacle is grounded

through the house wiring. The customer should

have the circuit checked by a qualified electrician

to make sure the receptacle is properly grounded.

When disconnecting the power cord from the adapter,

always hold the adapter with one hand. If this is not

done, the adapter ground terminal is very likely to

break with repeated use. Should this happen, DO

NOT USE the appliance until a proper ground has

again been established.

B: Usage Situations Where Appliance Power Cord

W'dl Be Disconnected Frequently.

Do not use an adapter plug in these situations because

disconnecting of the power cord places undue strain

on the adapter and leads to eventual failure of the

adapter ground terminal. The customer should have

the two-prong wall receptacle replaced with a three-

prong (grounding) receptacle by a qualified electrician

before using the appliance+

The installation of appliances designed for mobile

home installation must conform with the

Manufactured Home Construction and Safety

Standard, Title 24 CFR, Part 3280 (formerly the

Federal Standard for Mobile Home Construction and

Safety, Title 24, HUD, Part 280) or, when such

standard is not applicable, the Standard for

Manufacmied Home Installations, latest edition

(Manufactured Home Sites, Communities and Set-

Ups), ANSI A225.1, latest edition, or with local codes.

In Canada, mobile home installation must be in

accordance with the current CANICSA Z240/MtI

Mobile Home Installation Code.

STEP 5

Check Ignition of Surface Burners

Operation of all cooktop and oven burners should be

checked after the range and gas supply lines have been

carefully checked for leaks,

Hectric Ignition Models

Select a top burner knob and simultaneously push in and

turn to I_.ITE position. You will hear a snapping sound

indicating proper operation of the spark module. Once

the air has been purged from the supply lines, burners

should light within 4 seconds, After burner lights, rotate

knob out of the LITE position. Try each burner in

succession until all burners have been checlced.

quality of Flames

The combustion quality of burner flames needs to be

determined visually.

(A) Yellow flames--Call

for service

(t3) Yellow tips on outer

cones---Normal for LP gas

Normal for natural gas

STEP 6

Check Ignition of Oven Burner

Your oven is designed to operate quietly and

automatically. To operate the oven, turn the OVEN

SET knob to a setting above 300°E (!49°C.)° After

30-90 seconds, the oven burner will ignite and burn

until the set temperature is reached. The oven burner

wilt continue to cycle on and off as necessary to

maintain the oven at the temperature indicated by the

OVEN SET knob.

To check ignition of the broil burner, turn the OVEN

SET knob to BROIL. After 30-90 seconds, the broil

burner will ignite.

Hectric ignition models require electrical power to

operate. In case of a power outage, the oven burners

on these models cannot be lit manually with a match.

Gas will not flow unless the glow bar is hot.

If the oven is in use when a power outage occurs, the

oven burner will shut off and cannot be re-lit until

power is restored.

STEP 7

Adjust Broil and Oven Burner Air

Adjustment Shutters if Necessary

Air adjustment shutters for the top and bottom

burners regulate the flow of air to the flames°

tf burner flames look like (A), call for service_ Normal

burner flames should look lilce (B) or (C), depending

on the type of gas you use.

With LP gas, some yellow tipping on outer cones is

no rmal.

The air adjustment shutter for the top (broil) burner is

in the center of the rear wall of the oven.

l//

The shutter for the bottom (oven) burner is near the

back wall behind the storage drawer or trick panel

(depending on the model)° Remove the drawer or

panel. See the Care and Cleaning section in this guide.

To adjust the flow of air to either burner, loosen the

Phillips head screw and rotate the shutter toward open

or closed position as needed,

The flames for the top (broil) burner should burn

steady with approximately 1" blue cones and should

not extend out over the edges of the burner baffle.

To determine if' the bottom burner flames are burning

properly, remove the oven bottom. Flames should have

approximately 1" blue cones and, if range is supplied

with natural gas, should burn with no yellow tipping°

(With most LP gas, small yellow tips at the end of

outer cones are normal.) Flames should not lift off

burner ports. If' lifting is observed, gradually reduce air

shutter opening until flames are stabilized.

To remove the oven bottom:

1. Remove the knurled screws holding down rear of

the oven bottom.

2. Grasp the oven bottom at f'mger slots on each side.

3. Lift the rear of the oven bottom enough to clear the

lip of the range frame, then pull out_

STEP 8

Leveling the Range

1. Remove the storage drawer, broiler drawer or

ldck panel.

2. Use a 3/16" open-end or socket

wrench to back out both rear

leveling legs approximately

_¢o turns_

Use a 1_" open-end or

adjustable wrench to back out

the front leveling legs two turns°

Install the oven shelves in the

oven, then position the range

where it will be installed.

Check for levelness by placing a spirit level or a

partially filled cup of water on one of the oven

shelves_ If using a spirit level, take two readings--

with the level placed diagonally first in one direction

and then the other.

6. Adjust the leveling legs until the range is level.

7. After the range is level, slide the range away from

the wall so that the Anti-Tip device can be installed.
