WARNING BEFORE USING THE SURFACE BURNERS, make sure to follow all the safety warnings and precautions listed on page 6. Failure to do so could result in product damage, personal injury, and/or death.
Make sure all surface burners are positioned and assembled properly
1. Push in and turn the control knob to the LITE position. You will hear a “clicking” sound indicating the electronic ignition system is working properly.
2. After the surface burner lights, turn the control knob to adjust the power setting of the surface burner and turn off the electronic ignition system.
NOTE We highly recommend using the left rear side burner for simmering tomato sauce and right rear side burner for melting chocolate
If a power failure occurs, the surface burners can still be lit manually.
NOTE Use extreme caution when manually lighting a surface burner.
1. Hold a long gas grill lighter to the surface burner you want to light.
2. Push in and turn the control knob for that burner to the LITE position.
3. After the burner has lit, set the control knob and the burner to the desired setting.
WARNING
Flames larger than the bottom of the cookware will not result in faster heating, but could result in a fire hazard and/or personal injury.
The flames on the burners should always stay under the cookware. The flames should never extend beyond the bottom surface and/or up the sides of the cookware.
Always watch the flames when adjusting the heat setting with the control knob(s). The flames should always match the size of the cookware being used.
Your gas range cooktop has five gas burners. All sealed cooktop burners use an open-port design which provides easy assembly and accurate and dependable operation. The different burner sizes ensure you have the proper heat source for the desired cooking job.
The right rear side burner provides precise cooking performance for delicate foods and foods that require low heat for long cooking times. The right rear side burner lets you use the LO setting for a very low simmer setting. The left rear side and center round burners are general-purpose burners that can be used for most cooking. The HI to LO settings provide a wide range of cooking temperatures to meet your cooking needs.
The right and left front side burners provide maximium output. These burners can also be used as general-purpose burners, but they are designed to provide quick heat to large cookware. The right and left front side burners spread out the heat with a larger circle of flames. This provides better heat distribution for larger cookware (12”/30.5 cm) or larger pots and pans.
NOTE
* Tomato sauce needs to be stirred during the low simmering. The center oval burner can also be used for large pots and pans, but is designed to be used with the center burner grate and/or the center griddle accessory (if equipped). The oval burner spreads out the heat more evenly over the large center cooking area.
Each surface burner has a control knob with settings from HI to LO. They also have a LITE setting that is only used to light the flame. The electronic ignition system sparks when the control knob is in the LITE position. The surface burner indicator next to the control knob shows which burner the knob controls.
Using the correct cookware can prevent many problems, such as uneven cooking or extended cooking times. Using the proper pans will reduce cooking times and cook food more evenly. Look for the following pan characteristics:
What your cookware is made of determines how evenly and quickly heat is transferred from the surface burner to the pan bottom.
NOTE Do not place a small pan or pot with a bottom diameter of about 6” or less on the center grate. It is likely that the pan or pot will tip over. We strongly recommend you place small-sized pots or pans on the rear of either side grate.
Samsung gas ranges come with a center burner grate. This grate fits over the center oval burner. The center burner grate should not be placed over any other burners and no other center stovetop grates should be used with this range.
The non-fixed coated griddle provides an extra-large cooking surface for meats, pancakes, or other food usually prepared in a frying pan or skillet. How to Place the Griddle: The griddle can only be used with the center burner. The griddle must be properly placed on the center grate as shown in the figure below.
WARNING DO NOT remove the center grate when using the griddle.
How to cook: Preheat the griddle according to the guide below, and then adjust for the cooking conditions.

The Convection Roast function lets you program the oven to roast at any temperature between 150 °F (66 °C) and 550 °F (288 °C). The convection fan in the back of the oven cavity circulates the hot air evenly throughout the oven cavity. As a result, foods are evenly cooked and browned in less time than with regular heat.
Convection baking
• Ideal for foods being cooked on multiple racks.
• Good for large quantities of baked foods.
• Provides good results with cookies, biscuits, brownies, cupcakes, cream puffs, sweet rolls, angel food cake, and bread.
• Cookies have best cooking results when cooked on flat cookie sheets.
• When convection baking on a single rack, place the oven rack in position 3 or 4. When convection baking on multiple racks, place the oven racks in position 2 and 5.
NOTE The oven automatically adjusts the temperature for convection baking with the Convection Auto Conversion feature. See page 56 for details.
Convection roasting
• Good for larger tender cuts of meat, uncovered.
• Place a broil pan and grid under the meat or poultry during convection roast for best results. The pan catches grease spills and the grid prevents grease spatters.
Meat and poultry are browned on all sides as if they were cooked on a rotisserie. Heated air will be circulated over, under, and around the food being roasted. The heated air seals in juices quickly for a moist and tender interior while creating a rich, golden-brown exterior. See the Convection roasting guide on page 40 for recommended cooking times and temperatures.

Starter electrodes are not removable and should only be wiped clean when the controls are in the OFF position.
7. Set all burner heads on top of the manifold valves in the same location you removed them from. The hole on the side of the burner heads goes over the electrodes. The burner heads are correctly installed when they are flat on the top of the manifold valves.
8. Set all burner caps on top of the burner heads. These also need to be flat on top of the burner heads to ensure proper and safe operation.
NOTE The caps on Precise simmer burner (RR) and inside Double-ring Burner (RF) can be interchangeably used.
9. Replace burner grates on top of the range cooktop.
10. Push in and turn each surface burner control knob to the LITE position, let each burner light, and then set each control knob back to a burner setting to make sure each burner operates properly.
Cooktop surface
The cooktop surface is a porcelain-enamel surface. To prevent this surface from becoming dull, wipe up and clean spills as they happen. Foods with a lot of acid tomatoes, sauerkraut, fruit juices, etc.) or foods with high sugar content can cause dull spots if allowed to set.
WARNING
Do not use a steel-wool pad or abrasive cleaners on porcelain-enamel surfaces. Abrasive pads and cleaners will scratch and damage the surface.
1. Make sure all surface burners are OFF.
2. When surfaces have cooled, remove the burner grates.
WARNING Do not remove or lift the cooktop during cleaning. Doing so could damage the gas lines leading to the surface burner manifolds, causing poor and/or dangerous operation.
3. Clean the cooktop surface with warm, soapy water and a soft, damp cloth. If spill goes under a surface burner, remove the surface burner cap and head to access and clean the spill.
4. Rinse with clean water and dry and polish with a soft, dry cloth.
5. Reassemble burner components (if removed) and replace the burner grates.
