Turn burner control knob to the “OFF” position.
Check that the range is plugged in. Check that the circuit breaker has not
tripped or the household fuse has not blown.
Check that the gas shutoff valves are set to the “open” position.
Check that burner caps are properly positioned on burner bases.
IMPORTANT
Adjustments must be made with two other burners in operation on a medium setting. This prevents
the upper row of ames from being set too low, resulting in the ame being extinguished when other
burners are turned on.
TO ADJUST STANDARD BURNER:
The ame can be adjusted using the adjustment screw in the center of the valve stem. The
valve stem is located directly behind the control knob.

NOTE:
For models with a ame failure safety device - Once the ame is lit, hold the knob depressed for about 3-4
seconds until the device keeps the burner automatically lit. If the burner fails to ignite, wait one minute for the
gas to dissipate before attempting to reignite.
Read the instructions before installing or using this appliance.
• In case of prolonged power failure, the surface burners can be lit manually. Hold a lit match near a burner
and turn knob counterclockwise until the indicator is aligned with MAX. After the burner is lit, turn knob to
desired setting.
• The electric igniter must not be actuated for longer than 15 seconds. Should the burner not light, or should
the burner be unintentionally turned off, immediately close the burner, and wait at least 1 minute before
repeating. Once ignited, adjust the ame as desired.
• In the case of unintentional ame extinguishing, the safety valve intervenes by shutting off the gas to
the burners. For lower gas consumption and a better result, use saucepans with a diameter matching
the diameter of the burner, to avoid the ame coming up around the sides of the saucepan. See the
Container Table. Use only atbottomed pans.
• As soon as liquid starts to boil, turn the ame down to a level sufcient to maintain boiling.
• This appliance shall be installed in accordance with the regulations in force and only used in a well-
ventilated space.
• The use of a gas-cooking appliance results in the production of heat and moisture in the room in which it is
installed. Ensure that the kitchen is well ventilated: keep natural ventilation holes open or install a mechanical
ventilation device (mechanical extractor hood).
• Prolonged intensive use of the appliance may call for additional ventilation, for example opening of a
window, or more effective ventilation, for example increasing the level of mechanical ventilation
where present.
To ignite a burner, push down on the burner knob and rotate it counterclockwise until the knob indicator is
aligned with the ignite icon. Release the knob and adjust the ame intensity by further rotating the knob
counterclockwise from MAX (maximum) to MIN (minimum).
To turn off the burner, rotate the knob clockwise until the indicator on the knob is aligned with OFF.

USE BALANCED PANS -
Pans must sit level on the cooktop grate without rocking. Center the pan over the burner.
USE A LID THAT FITS PROPERLY -
A well-tting lid helps shorten the cooking time. Flat, heavy bottom pans provide even heat and stability.

OVEN USE
OVEN CONTROLS
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 airow through the oven and may cause carbon monoxide poisoning.
Aluminum foil linings may also trap heat, causing a re hazard.
Reset all controls to the OFF position after using a programmable timing operation. No attempt should
be made to operate the appliance during power failure.
An air curtain or other overhead range hood, which operates by blowing a downward airow onto a
range shall not be used in conjunction with a gas range.
The Thermostat knob and Cooking-mode knobs are used together to select Oven Modes. The
appearance of the knobs may vary from what is shown in the manual.
Bake
THERMOSTAT RANGE: 140°F (60°C) TO MAX 500°F (260°C)
The Bake mode uses heat from the lower element to cook food. When using this mode to prepare baked
goods such as cakes, cookies and pastries, always preheat the oven rst and place food centrally near
the middle racks.
Broil
THERMOSTAT RANGE: Broil
The Broil mode uses intense heat from the upper element to sear foods. Ideal for toasting, melting
cheese, browning and searing surface. Food should be placed near the upper racks, and should not be
cooked for too long on each side of the food. It is not necessary to preheat when using this mode.
PUSH IN THERMOSTAT KNOB
Push in on the Thermostat knob, and then turn
the knob to any baking temperature or broil to
automatically ignite the bake burner or the broil
burner.
NOTE:
Except for timed cooking, the oven will remain on until the Thermostat knob is returned to the OFF position.

COOKING MODE KNOBS
TIPS AND TECHNIQUES
Light
The Light mode turns on oven light inside the oven.
Conv Fan (Convection Fan)
The Convection Fan mode uses air movement from the fan to improve heat distribution and enhance
cooking evenness within the oven. Cooking times may be slightly longer for multiple racks than what
would be expected for a single rack.
Bake
Baking is cooking with heated air. Both upper and lower elements in the oven are used to heat the air
but no fan is used to circulate the heat. Follow the recipe or convenience food directions for baking
temperature, time and rack position. Baking time will vary with the temperature of ingredients and the
size, shape and nish of the baking utensil.
General Guidelines
• For best results, bake food on a single rack with at least 1” - 1½” (2.5 - 3 cm) space between utensils
and oven walls.
• Use one rack when selecting the bake mode.
• Check for doneness at the minimum time.
• Use metal bake ware (with or without a non-stick nish), heatproof glass, glass-ceramic, pottery or
other utensils suitable for the oven.
• When using heatproof glass, reduce temperature by 25°F (15°C) from recommended temperature.
• Use baking sheets with or without sides or jelly roll pans.
• Dark metal pans or nonstick coatings will cook faster with more browning. Insulated bake ware will
slightly lengthen the cooking time for most foods.
• Do not use aluminum foil or disposable aluminum trays to line any part of the oven. Foil is an
excellent heat insulator and heat will be trapped beneath it. This will alter the cooking performance
and can damage the nish of the oven.
• Avoid using the opened door as a shelf to place pans.
• See Troubleshooting for tips to Solving Baking and Roasting Problems.
NOTE:
The convection fan turns on for Bake mode only.
