6 Safety
iMPORTANTiNSTRUCTIONSFORUSINGYOURCOOKTOP
Use proper flame size--Adjust flame size so it does not extend beyond
the edge of the utensil. The use of undersized utensils wilt expose a portion of the burner
flame to direct contact and may result in ignition of clothing. Proper relationship of utensil
to flame will also improve efficiency.
Do not use stove top grills on the burner grates of sealed gas burner& If
you use a stove top grill on a sealed gas burner, it will cause incomplete combustion and
can result in exposure to carbon monoxide levels above allowable current standards. This
can be hazardous to your health.
Knowwhich knob controls each surface burner. Place a pan of food on the burner
before turning it on, and turn the burner off before removing the pan.
Always turn the knob to the full LITE position when igniting top burners. Visually
check that burner has lit. Then adjust the flame so it does not extend beyond the edge
of the utensil.
Use Proper Pan Size--This appliance is equipped with one or more surface burners of
different sizes. Select utensils having flat bottoms large enough to cover the surface
burner. The use of undersized utensils will expose a portion of the surface heating unit to
direct contact and may result in ignition of clothing. Proper relationship of utensil to the
surface unit will also improve efficiency.
Utensil Handles Should Be Turned Inward and Should Not Extend Over Adjacent
Surface Burners--To reduce the risk of burns, ignition of flammable materials, and
spillage due to unintentional contact with the utensil. The handle of the utensil should be
positioned so that it is turned inward, and does not extend over adjacent surface burners.
Never Leave Surface Burners Unattended--Boilovers cause smoking and greasy
spillovers that may ignite, or a pan that has boiled dry may melt.
° Protective liners--Do not use aluminum foil to line oven bottom or any other part of the
appliance. Only use aluminum foil as recommended for baking if used as a cover placed
on the food. Any other used of protective liners or aluminum foil may result in a risk of
electric shock or fire or a short circuit.
Glazed Cooking Utensils--Only certain types of glass, glass/ceramic, ceramic,
earthenware, or other glazed utensils are suitable for cooktop service without breaking due
to the sudden change in temperature. Check the manufacturer's recommendations for
cooktop use.
Do not use Searing Grill on the cooktop. The searing grill is not designed for use on
the cooktop. Doing so may result in a fire.
Do Not Use Decorative Surface burner Covers. If a burner is accidentally turned on,
the decorative cover will become hot and possibly melt. Burns will occur if the hot
covers are touched. Damage may also be done to the cooktop or burners because the
covers may cause overheating. Air will be blocked from the burner and cause
combustion problems.
IMPORTANTINSTRUCTIONSFORUSINGYOUROVEN
Use Care When Opening Door or Drawer--Stand to the side of the appliance when
opening the door of a hot oven. Let hot air or steam escape before you remove or replace
food in the oven/warmer drawer.
Keep Oven Vent Ducts Unobstructed. The oven is vented at the front above the oven
door or through the rear of cooktop. Touching the surfaces in this area when the oven is
operating may cause severe burns. Also, do not place plastic or heat-sensitive items on or
near the oven vent. These items could melt or ignite.
Safety 7
Placement of OvenP_Jarmer Drawer (if equipped) Racks. Always place oven racks in
desired location while oven!drawer (if equipped) is cool. Remove all utensils from the rack
before removing rack. If rack must be moved while oven is hot, use extreme caution. Use
potholders and grasp the rack with both hands to reposition. Do not let potholders contact
the hot oven element or interior of the oven/warmer drawer (if equipped)
Do not use a broiler pan without its insert. The broiler pan and grid allow dripping fat
to drain and be kept away from the high heat of the broiler.
, Do not cover your broiler or "warmer drawer (if equipped) grid with aluminum foil.
Exposed fat and grease could ignite.
Do not touch a hot light bulb with a damp cloth, Doing so could cause the bulb to break.
Disconnect the appliance or turn off the power to the appliance before removing and
replacing light bulb.
IMPORTANTiNSTRUCTIONSFORCLEANINGYOURRANGE
° Cleanthe range regularlyto keepail partsfreeofgreasethatcould catch fire. Exhaust
fan ventilation hoods and grease filters should be kept clean. Do not allow grease to
accumulate. Greasy deposits in the fan could catch fire. Refer to the hood manufacturer's
instructions for cleaning.
, Cleaners/aerosols--Always follow the manufacturer's recommended directions for use.
Be aware that excess residue from cleaners and aerosols may ignite causing damage and/
or injury.
SELF-CLEANING OVENS:
* Clean in the self-cleaning cycle onlythe parts of the oven listed in this owner's guide.
Before self-cleaning the oven, remove all utensils stored in the oven.
. Do not clean the oven door gasket. The door gasket is essential for a good seal. Care
should be taken not to rub, damage or move the gasket.
- Do not use oven cleaners. No oven cleaner or oven liner protective coating of any kind
should be used in or around any part of the oven.
, Remove oven racks. Oven racks will be damaged if left in the oven during a self-cleaning
cycle.
The health of some birds is extremely sensitive to the fumes given off
during the self-clean cycle of any range. Move birds to another well ventilated room.

Forrnostcooking, start on the highest control setting and then turn to a lower one to complete
the process. Usethe chart below as a guide for determining proper flame size for varioustypes
of cooking. The size and type of utensil used and the amount of food being cooked will
influence the setting needed for cooking.
For deep fat frying, use a thermometer and adjust the surface control knob accordingly. If
the fat is too cool, the food will absorb the fat and be greasy. Ifthe fat is too hot, the food will
brown so quickly that the center will be undercooked. Do not attempt to deep fat fry too much
food at once as the food will neither brown nor cook properly.

*These settings are based on using medium-weight
aluminum pans with lids. Settings may varywhen using

Never extend the flame beyond the outer edge of the utensil.
A higher flame simply wastes heat and energy, and increases
your risk of being burned by the flame.

Your cooktop may be equipped with any combination of the following burners:
Simmer Burner: best used for simmering delicate sauces, etc.
Standard Burner: used for most all surface cooking needs.
Large Burner: best used when bringing large quantities of liquid to temperature and when
preparing larger quantities of food.
Regardless of size, always select a utensil that issuitable for the amount and type of food being
prepared. Select aburner and flame size appropriate to the pan. Never allow flames to extend
beyond the outer edge of the pan.
Your cooktop is also equipped with 270 ° rotation flame control valves. These valves provide
enhanced control of the burner flame. Each burner lights automatically from an electric ignitor
when its control knob is turned to the LITE position.

The lower oven provides two basic modes, cooking and warming. The lower oven is ideal for
cooking foods such as pizza, casseroles, baked potatoes and frozen convenience foods. Use
the keep warm feature to keep hot cooked foods at serving temperature. The lower oven can
only be used with some cooking modes; Bake, Slow Cook and Keep Warm (read their sections
for precise instructions).
KEEP CHILDREN AWAY FROM THE LOWER OVEN WHEN HOT.
FAILURE TO DO SO CAN RESULT iN BURNS.
_Always use oven mitts when removing food from the lower oven. The lower
oven rack, compartment, cookware!plates may be hot.
Lower Oven Tips:
+ The lower oven rack must always be in place when cooking or warming. Be sure that the
rack is placed with the down turned sides into the drawer. This will provide for some air
space between the drawer and the food.
° When placing food in the lower oven always use a baking sheet or pan with 4 raised sides
to prevent food from sliding off.
+ DO NOT LINE THE OVEN DRAWERWlTH FOIL OR COVER THE OVEN RACKWlTH
FOIL. This may result in damage to your oven.
+ The maximum height of foods and utensils that may be used in the lower oven is 4". The
maximum width is 15", Pay close attention to foods that have potential to rise beyond
the recommended 4" maximum height.
° Use pans in the lower oven large enough to contain food and any juices created from the
cooking process.
+ Do not use plastic wrap to cover food. Plastic may
melt onto the drawer or surrounding areas and be
very difficult to clean. Use a lid or aluminum foil
instead. Use only utensils and cookware in the oven
drawer that are recommended for oven use in the upper
oven.
When using the lower oven, limit the number of times
the drawer is opened; this will minimize heat loss.
Repeated opening of the drawer during the cooking
process may increase cooking times and produce
uneven cooking results. The cooking times for the
lower oven may vary slightly from the upper oven.
NOTE: The lower oven will not operate when the upper oven is
set for self-cleaning or if the control lockout feature is active.
Should an oven fire occur, close the drawer and turn the lower oven
OFF. If the fire continues, use a fire extinguisher. DO NOT put water or flour on the fire.
Flour may be explosive.
