How to Select Flame Size
. WARNING
Flames that are
not covered by cookware may present a risk
of burns or clothing igniton. Never let flames
extend beyond the sides of the cookware.
Watch.the.flame,.not.the.knob,.as.you.adjust.
heat.When.fast.heating.is.desired,.the.flame.
size.on.a.gas.burner.should.match.the.
cookware.you.are.using
Flames.larger.than.the.bottom.of.the.cookware.
will.not.result.in.faster.heating.and.may.be.
hazardous
In Case of Power Failure
In.case.of.a.power.failure,.you.can.light.the.
gas.surface.burners.on.your.range.with.a.
match.Hold.a.lit.match.to.the.burner,.then.
push.in.and.turn.the.control.knob.to.the.LITE.
position.Use.extreme.caution.when.lighting.
burners.this.way.
Surface.burners.in.use.when.an.electrical.
power.failure.occurs.will.continue.to.operate.
normally
NOTE: If Gas/Control Lockout is in use at the
time of a power failure, the surface burners
cannot be lit.
Wok This Way

smaller.flat-bottomed.wok.Make.sure.the.wok.
bottom.sits.flat.on.the.grate.They.are.available.
at.your.local.retail.store
Only.a.flat-bottomed.wok.should.be.used
Do.not.use.a.wok.support.ring.Placing.the.

WARNING Fire Hazard
The Pre-Heat setting (on some models) is provided to
quickly preheat your griddle. Turn control down before
placing food on the griddle. Cooking on the Pre-Heat
setting may result in fire.
Use care when cooking greasy foods. Spilled grease may
result in fire.
Never place or store any items on the griddle, even when
it is not in use. Heat from surrounding burners can heat
the griddle and may result in fire.
Place and remove the griddle only when all grates and
griddle are cool and all surface units are turned OFF.

When you are using
a rack in the lowest position (R), you will
need to use caution when pulling the rack
out. We recommend that you pull the rack
out several inches and then, using two pot
holders, pull the rack out by holding the
sides of it. The rack is low and you can be
burned if you put your hand in the middle of
the rack and pull all the way out. Be careful
not to burn your hand on the door when
using the rack in the lowest position (R).

When baking on a single rack, use
the rack position from the chart for
your type of food. Baking results
will be better if baking pans are
centered in the oven as much as

lower pans at the back of the rack
and the upper pans to the front of
the rack shown so that one pan is
not directly above another.

Using the Sabbath feature. (lower oven only)
(Designed for use on the Jewish Sabbath and Holidays)
The Sabbath feature can be used for baking/roasting in the upper and lower oven or baking drawer (on some models). It
cannot be used for convection, broiling, self-cleaning or delay start cooking.
NOTE: The oven light comes on automatically (on some models) when the door is opened and goes
off when the door is closed. The bulb may be removed. See the Oven Light Replacement section. On
models with a light switch on the control panel, the oven light may be turned on and left on.

You may find that your new oven cooks differently than the one it replaced. Use your new oven for a few weeks to become
more familiar with it. If you still think your new oven is too hot or too cold, you can adjust the thermostat yourself.
Do not use thermometers, such as those found in grocery stores, to check the temperature setting of your oven.
These thermometers may vary 20–40 degrees.
NOTE: This adjustment will not affect the broiling or the self-cleaning temperatures. The adjustment will be retained in
memory after a power failure.

Be sure electrical power is off and all surfaces are cool before cleaning any part of the range.
.
WARNING If your range is removed for cleaning, servicing or any reason, be
sure the anti-tip device is reengaged properly when the range is replaced. Failure to take
this precaution could result in tipping of the ra
nge and cause injury.
To check if the bracket is installed and engaged properly, carefully tip the range forward. The
bracket should stop the range within 4 inches. If it does not, the bracket must be reinstalled.
If the range is pulled from the wall for any reason, always repeat this procedure to verify the
range is properly secured by the anti-tip bracket.
If your range has no anti-tip bracket, call 1.800.626.8774 to receive one at no cost.

Reversible Cast-Iron Griddle (on some models)
Nonstick Griddle (on some models)
Rinse with hot water (do not use soap), and
dry thoroughly.
Before cooking, prepare the surface with
cooking spray or vegetable oil.
After cooking, clean the griddle with a stiff
brush and hot water. Using soap is not
recommended, and harsh detergents should
never be used.
Towel dry immediately and apply a light coat
of cooking spray or vegetable oil while the
griddle is still warm.
Store in a cool, dry place.
Do not wash in the dishwasher.
Griddle Precautions:
If something has spilled under the griddle, it
should be cleaned up as soon as possible to
prevent “baked on” food soil.
Do not allow grease to accumulate under the
griddle as it can be a fire hazard. Clean under
the griddle as soon as it is cool. Clean with hot
soapy water.
Do not place your griddle in the microwave.
Always turn off all surface burners before
removing the griddle. Use caution when
