SAFETY WARNINGS
WARNINGS
These are the most critical warnings summarized below.
If the instructions in this manual are 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 substances and liquids near this or other appliances.
Never use this appliance as a space heater to warm a room.
Installation of this appliance must be done by a qualified service agency or gas supplier.
Using a dual gas detector is highly recommended.
This is a dual fuel stove that can run on Propane or Methane. Both fuels have added a
hydrogen sulfide, which smell like rotten eggs, to make it easier to detect. However, some
individuals may not be able to detect the smell. Because fuel gas leaks cannot always be
detected by smell, the use of a gas detector is highly recommended,
Inexpensive dual fuel gas detectors are available commercially today.
Gas suppliers recommend that you use a gas detector approved by UL or CSA.
For more information, contact your gas supplier.
If a gas leak is detected, follow the “What to do if you smell gas” instructions below.
What to do if you smell natural methane or propane gas:
Do not light any appliance.
Do not touch an electrical switch.
Immediately call the gas supplier from a neighbor’s phone.
Open a window and leave the area.
Follow the gas supplier’s instructions.
If you cannot reach the gas supplier, call the fire department.
Important Food Safety Warnings:
According to the United Sates Department of Agriculture, DO NOT hold foods at temperatures
between 40ºF to 140ºF for more than 2 hours. Cooking raw foods below 275ºF is not recommended.
Suffocation Warning / 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 lining may also trap heat, causing a fire hazard.

COOKTOP SAFETY GUIDELINES
COOKTOP SAFETY GUIDELINES
There are dual ring burners that have the same low turn-down setting (SIM) for gentle
simmering (680 BTU/hr.). Use the SIM setting for melting chocolate and butter, cooking rice
and delicate sauces, simmering soups and stews, and keeping cooked food hot.
Never leave the cooktop unattended when in use. Boil over causes smoking and greasy spills
that may ignite.
Never allow flames to extend beyond cookware or curl up on sides. This could discolor and
damage the pot and you may get burned from touching the hot handle.
Turn handles so that they don’t extend over the edge of the range or on a burner that is on.
Take care when deep-frying. Oil or fat can overheat very quickly, particularly on a high setting.
Make sure that all burner parts are properly in place. Incorrectly or incomplete assembled
burners may produce dangerous flames. See Replacing the Burner Parts” in Care and
Cleaning.”
Keep the burners clean, especially after a spill or boil over, making sure you clean the
affected burners before using them again. Food residue may clog the igniter and the notches
of the flame spreader, stopping the burner from functioning correctly. See “Care and
Cleaning” for instructions.
Burner flames should be blue with no yellow tipping, and burn without fluttering all around
the burner cap. If not, see “Troubleshooting” for advice.
35
background
COOKTOP SAFETY GUIDELINES
To light the top burners, push and turn the appropriate control knob counter clockwise
to the “HI” position. You will hear a clicking noisethe sound of the electric spark
igniting the burner. Once burner ignition has been achieved, turn the burner control
knob to adjust the desired heat setting.
When one burner is turned to the “HI” position, the burner igniters will spark. Do not
attempt to disassemble or clean around any burner while another burner is on. Do not
touch any burner cap, burner base, or igniter while the igniters are sparking.
Simmer and Boil
A smaller flame will give the best simmer results. Small flames offer precise cooking
performance for delicate foods, keeping food warm, melting chocolate or butter, and
other foods that need to cook over low heat for a long time.
Dual burners have SIM low turn-down setting for gentle simmering and have a capacity
of 650 BTU/hr. Use the SIM setting for melting chocolate and butter, cooking rice and
delicate sauces, simmering soups and stews, and keeping cooked food hot.
The highest flame settings provide the maximum heat that is available on your range.
This setting should be used for heavy cooking loads such as boiling water or cooking
pasta.

POWER FAILURE
If the gas does not ignite within four seconds, turn off the valve and allow at least five
minutes for any gas to dissipate. Repeat the lighting procedure.
Do not attempt to ignite during power failure.
COOKTOP
The burners should be cleaned after each use. To prevent the cooktop from discoloring
or staining, wipe up acidic or sugary spills as soon as the cooktop has cooled.
The sealed burners of your range are not connected to your cooktop and are designed
to be removed. Boil overs or spills will not seep underneath the cooktop.
FLAME SIZE
When you select the flame size, watch the flame when you turn the knob.
Any flame larger than the bottom of the cookware is wasted.
The flame should be steady and blue in color. Foreign material in the gas line may
cause an orange flame during initial operation.

background
OVEN COOKING SAFETY GUIDELINES
Do not block the ducts on the rear of the range when cooking in the oven. It is
important that the flow of moist warm air from the oven and fresh air into the
oven burner never be interrupted. Avoid touching the vent opening or nearby
surfaces during oven or broiler operation because they are hot. Do not place
plastics, paper or other items that could melt or burn near the oven vent.
Use all the oven modes with the oven door closed.
Never use aluminum foil to cover the oven shelves or to line the floor of the oven.
The trapped heat can irreversibly damage the enamel and may even cause a fire.
Do not place water, ice, or any dish or tray directly on the oven floor, as this will
irreversibly damage the enamel.
Do not cover the slotted grid of the broil/roast pan with aluminum foil. This will
catch the grease and could cause a fire.
Do not use plastic wrap or wax paper in the oven.
For food safety reasons, do not leave food in the oven for longer than two hours
before and after cooking or defrosting. This is to avoid contamination by
organisms which may cause food poisoning. Take care during warmer weather.
According to the United Sates Department of Agriculture: DO NOT hold foods at
temperatures between 40 F to 140 F more than 2 hours. Cooking raw foods below
275 F is not recommended.
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 lining may also
trap heat, causing a fire hazard.

OVEN FUNCTION
NATURAL AIRFLOW BAKE
Natural airflow bake occurs when heat is transferred into the oven from the bake burners in
the bottom of the oven cavity. Heat is then circulated by natural airflow. This is a traditional
bake setting.
CONVECTION BAKE
The oven convection fan circulates and distributes the heat in the oven for faster even cooking.
Convection cooking allows you to bake more items on multiple racks.
To bake using the convection fan:
1. Position the oven bottom cover and the oven shelves before using oven.
2. Remove any unused shelves and baking utensils from the oven.
3. Preheat the oven to the temperature stated in the recipe. Depending on the temperature
and the size of the oven, preheating will take around 15-20 minutes.
4. Arrange pans and food items evenly on the shelves. Make sure pans do not touch each
other or the sides of the oven. When baking a single item, always center the item on the
oven shelf. If baking on multiple shelves, make sure you stagger items on the shelves so
that one is never directly above another.
5. When baking using convection, either reduce the temperature stated in the recipe and
leave the baking time unchanged, or reduce the baking time by several minutes and
leave the temperature unchanged. For foods with a baking time of over an hour, reducing
both the temperature and time slightly may give the best results.
6. Dark metal baking pans or those with a dull finish absorb heat faster than shiny pans,
and are excellent for pies and breads, or anything that needs browning or a crisper crust.
7. A shiny finish may work best for foods that require lighter, delicate browning (e.g. cakes
and cookies), as it reflects some heat and gives a less intense baking surface.
8. Avoid opening the oven door frequently during baking.
CONVECTION ROAST
For best results use the broiler pan. The pan is used to catch grease spills and has a cover to
prevent grease splatter.
background
The convection fan circulates heated air over and around the food being roasted, sealing
juices quickly for a moist and tender product while, at the same time, creating a rich,
golden-brown exterior.
Use the broil/roast pan and slotted grid supplied with the range when roasting to elevate the
meat on a metal roasting rack. This allows hot air to circulate around the meat, browning it
more evenly like a rotisserie. A suitable roasting rack can be purchased through your HRD
distributer or by calling Customer Care.
When roasting larger items like a whole turkey, use only the pan and grid for greater stability.
CONVECTION DEFROST
With temperature control off, a motorized fan in the rear of the oven circulates air. The fan
accelerates natural defrosting of the food without heat. To avoid illness and food waste, do not
allow defrosted food to remain in the oven for more than two hours without being cooked.
DEFROSTING
To thaw uncooked frozen food, set the oven temperature to 100-150°F. Once thawed, cook the
food immediately and do not refreeze.
To prevent liquid from thawing food dripping on the oven floor, be sure any uncooked food is
tightly wrapped in foil and/or placed in a heat proof container.
CONVECTION DEHYDRATION
With the temperature control at 175 F, warm air is radiated from the bake burners on the
bottom of the oven cavity and is circulated by a motorized fan in the rear of the oven.
The food dries by evaporation. Drying foods inhibits microbial growth and retains certain
enzymes.

Broiler Operation
Door must be closed during broiler operation.
Broiling is a method of cooking tender cuts of meat directly under the infrared broiler
in the oven. Broiling in the oven is accomplished with the oven door closed. It is normal
and necessary for some smoke to be present to give the food a broiled flavor.
If you open the oven door to check the food, have it open for as short a time as possible.
This is to prevent the control panel from overheating and prevents melted knobs.
Use both the broil/roast pan and slotted grid supplied. The grid helps to reduce
smoking and splatter by letting grease drip into the bottom of the pan, away from
intense heat. To prevent food sticking, spray the grid with a light coating of non-stick
cooking spray.
Preheating
Preheating is suggested when searing rare steaks (Remove the broiler pan before
preheating with the infrared broiler. Foods will stick to hot metal). To preheat, turn
the “Oven” selector knob to the “Broil” position. Wait for the burner to become hot,
approximately 2 minutes. Preheating is not necessary when broiling meat well-done.
To Broil
Broil one side until the food is browned; turn and cook on the second side. Season and
serve. Always pull the rack out to the “stop” position before turning or removing food.
Setting Broil
The “Oven” selector knob controls the Broil feature. When broiling, heat radiates
downward from the oven broiler for even coverage. The Broil feature temperature is
500 F (260 F).
The broil pan and insert used together allow dripping grease to drain and be kept away
from the high heat of the oven broiler. DO NOT use the broil pan without the insert.
DO NOT cover the broil pan insert with foil. The exposed grease could catch fire.
CAUTION
background
44
To set the oven to Broil:
1. Place the broiler pan insert on the broiler pan. Then place the food on the broiler pan
insert.
2. Arrange the interior oven rack and place the broiler pan on the rack. Be sure to center
the broiler pan and position directly under the broil burner. If preheating the broil burner
first, position the broiler pan after the broil burner is preheated.
3. Turn selector knob to Broil.
4. The oven indicator light will remain on until the selector knob is turned to the off
position or the temperature control cycles off.
Broiling Guidelines
Choose a suitable shelf position. To ensure that meat is cooked through rather than just
browned on the outside, broil thick pieces of meat and poultry on shelf positions 2 or 3. Use
shelf position 4 for thinner items that need less cooking time like steaks, chops, or
hamburger patties.
When finishing off meals by browning the top under the broiler, use metal or glass-ceramic
bakeware. Do not use heatproof glass or earthenware, as these cannot withstand the
intense heat of the broiler.
Center the item in the oven, so that it is directly under the broiler.
FOR THE MODELS WITH GRIDDLE
Before Using the Griddle
1. Clean the griddle thoroughly with warm, soapy water to remove dust or any protective
coating.
2. Rinse with clean water and wipe off to dry with soft, clean, lint-free cloth.
3. A stainless-steel cover when the griddle is not being used is provided. Please note that the
cover must be removed before turning the griddle on.
4. Make sure the grease tray is under the front edge of the griddle. Position the tray under the
griddle overhang to catch grease or food residue.
Using the Griddle
1. Push and turn the control knob counter-clockwise to the preferred cooking temperature.
2. Preheat the griddle for 10-12 minutes.
GRIDDLE OPERATION

3. When the griddle is preheated to the desired temperature, the indicator light will turn on.
4. Butter or cooking oil may be added.
The surface of the griddle is hot after use. Please allow sufficient time for the griddle to cool
prior to cleaning.
When using the appliance for the first time, the oven and broiler heating elements should be
turned on to burn off the manufacturing oils. Turn the oven on to 450 F (230 C) for 20 to 30
minutes. Then turn the oven control knob to “Broil” for the same length of time. It is
recommended to turn on the ventilation hood above the range at this time.
Power Deactivation: Before servicing the appliance, ensure to turn off the power and lock
it to prevent accidental power activation. You must disconnect the electrical supply before
servicing or cleaning the appliance. Failure to follow this advice may result in injury or
death.
