INSTALLATION SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Have the installer show you the location of the range gas shut-off valve and how to shut it off if necessary.

WARNING

Make sure the range is properly installed and grounded by a qualified installer, according to the installation instructions. Any adjustment and service should be performed only by qualified gas range installers or service technicians.
Make sure the range is properly adjusted by a qualified service technician or installer for the type of gas (natural or LP) that is to be used. The range can be converted for use with either type of gas. See the installation instructions.
These adjustments must be done by a qualified service technician according to the manufacturer’s instructions and all codes and requirements of the authority having jurisdiction. Failure to follow these instructions could result in serious injury or property damage. The qualified agency performing these adjustments assumes responsibility for the conversion.
Disconnect the electrical supply before servicing the appliance.
Never use the appliance door as a step stool or seat, as this may result in tipping of the appliance and serious injuries.
This product should not be installed below ventilation type hood systems that direct air in a downward direction.
Doing so may cause ignition and combustion problems with the cooktop resulting in personal injury and may affect the cooking performance of the unit.
To prevent fire hazard or electrical shock, do not use an adapter plug or an extension cord, or remove the grounding prong from the electrical power cord. Failure to follow this warning can cause serious injury, fire or death.
To prevent poor air circulation, place the range out of the kitchen traffic path and out of drafty locations.
Do not attempt to repair or replace any part of the range unless it is specifically mentioned in this manual. All other services should be referred to a qualified technician.
Make sure that all packaging materials are removed from the range before operating it to prevent fire or smoke damage should the packaging material ignite.
After using the range for an extended period of time high floor temperatures may result. Many floor coverings will not withstand this kind of use.
Never install the range over vinyl tile or linoleum that cannot withstand such type of use. Never install it directly over interior kitchen carpeting.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Gas appliances can cause minor exposure to four of these substances, namely benzene, carbon monoxide, formaldehyde and soot, caused primarily by the imperfect combustion of natural or LP gas. Correctly adjusted burners, indicated by a bluish rather than a yellow flame, will minimize imperfect combustion. Exposure to these substances can be minimized by opening windows or using a ventilation fan or hood.

DO NOT TOUCH HEATING ELEMENTS OR INTERIOR SURFACES OF OVEN. Heating elements may be hot even though they are dark in color. Interior surfaces of an oven become hot enough to cause burns. During and after use, do not touch or let clothing or other flammable materials contact heating elements or interior surfaces of oven until they have had sufficient time to cool. Other surfaces, such as oven vent openings and surfaces near these openings, oven doors, and windows of oven doors, also get hot and may cause burns if not cooled.
Use care when opening door. The hot air and steam that escape can cause burns to hands, face and eyes. Let hot air or steam escape from the oven before removing or replacing food in the oven.
Do not repair or replace any part of the appliance unless specifically recommended in the manual. All other servicing should be performed by a qualified technician.
Do not use harsh etching, abrasive cleaners or sharp metal scrapers to clean the oven door glass since they can scratch the surface. Scratches may cause the glass to shatter.

WARNING

If the door glass, surface, or oven heating unit of the range are damaged, discontinue use of the range and call for service.

Do not use plastic to cover food. Use foil or oven-safe lids only.
Do not allow anyone to climb, stand or hang on the door or cooktop. They could damage the range and even tip it over, causing severe personal injury.
Do not line the oven walls, racks, bottom, or any other part of the oven with aluminum foil or any other material. Doing so will disrupt heat distribution, produce poor baking results and cause permanent damage to the oven interior (aluminum foil will melt to the interior surface of the oven)
Never attempt to dry a pet in the oven.
Never use your appliance for warming or heating the room.
Always use pot holders or oven mitts when removing food from the oven or the surface element. Cookware will be hot. Use only dry pot holders. Moist or damp pot holders on hot surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do not let the pot holder touch hot heating elements. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth to remove food.
Do not heat unopened food containers. Pressure in the containers may cause them to burst which may result in injury.
Large scratches or impacts to glass doors can lead to broken or shattered glass.
Leak testing of the appliance must be conducted according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
To eliminate the risk of burns or fire caused by reaching over heated surface units, cabinet storage space located above the surface units should be avoided. If cabinet storage is to be provided, the risk can be reduced by installing a range hood that projects horizontally a minimum of 5 inches beyond the bottom of the cabinets.
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 linings may also trap heat, causing a fire hazard.
NEVER use this appliance as a space heater to heat or warm the room. Doing so may result in carbon monoxide poisoning and overheating of the oven.
Gas leaks may occur in the system and result in a serious hazard. Gas leaks may not be detected by smell alone. Gas suppliers recommend you purchase and install a UL/CSA approved gas detector. Install and use in accordance with the gas detector manufacturer’s instructions.
To prevent staining or discoloration, clean appliance after each use.
Do not attempt to open or close the door or operate the oven until the door is properly installed.
Never place fingers between the hinge and front oven frame. Hinge arms are spring mounted. If accidentally hit, the hinge will slam shut against the oven frame and injure your fingers.

CAUTION

Wear gloves when cleaning the range to avoid injury or burns.
Do not use the oven for storing food or cookware.
To prevent damage to the oven door, do not attempt to open the door when Lock is displayed.
Do not stand or place excessive weight on an open door. This could tip the range, break the door, or injure the user.
Do not use delayed baking for highly perishable foods such as dairy products, pork, poultry, or seafood.

FLAMMABLE MATERIALS

WARNING

Be certain that all packing materials are removed from the appliance before operating. Keep plastic, clothes, paper, and other flammable materials away from parts of the appliance that may become hot.

Do not store or use flammable material in the oven or near or on the cooktop. Flammable materials include paper, plastic, pot holders, linens, wall coverings, curtains, and gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids such as grease or cooking oil. These materials can be ignited when the oven and cooktop are in use.
Wear proper apparel. Do not wear loose-fitting or hanging garments, which may ignite if they contact hot surfaces, and cause severe burns.
Do not use the oven for drying clothes. Only use the oven for its intended purpose.
If a cabinet storage is provided directly above cooking surface, place items that are not frequently used and can be safely stored in an area subjected to heat. Temperatures may be unsafe for volatile items such as flammable liquids, cleaners or aerosol sprays.

ELECTRICAL SAFETY

CAUTION

Be certain that all packing materials are removed from the appliance before operating. Keep plastic, clothes, paper, and other flammable materials away from parts of the appliance that may become hot.

Always disconnect power from the appliance before servicing.
Do not use aluminum foil or any other material to line the oven bottom. Improper installation of these liners may result in a risk of electric shock or fire.
Do not allow aluminum foil or the temperature probe to contact heating elements.

DEEP FAT FRYER

Use extreme caution when moving or disposing of hot grease.
Always heat fat slowly, and watch as it heats.
If frying combinations of oils and fats, stir them together before heating.
Use a deep fat thermometer, if possible, to prevent overheating fat beyond the smoking point.
Use the least possible amount of fat for effective shallow or deep-fat frying. Filling the pan with too much fat can cause spillovers when food is added.

CHILD SAFETY

Do not leave small children unattended near the oven.

WARNING
Do not leave children alone or unsupervised near the appliance when it is in use or is still hot. Children should never be allowed to sit or stand on any part of the appliance as they could be injured or burned.

CAUTION
Do not store items of interest to children in cabinets above a range or on the back guard of a range – children climbing on the range to reach items could be seriously injured.

Never let a child hang on the oven door.
Do not allow children to crawl into the oven.
Let hot utensils cool in a safe place, out of reach of small children.
Children should not be allowed to play with controls or other parts of the appliance.

SURFACE BURNERS

WARNING

Even if the top burner flame goes out, gas is still flowing to the burner until the knob is turned to the Off position. If you smell gas, immediately open a window and ventilate the area for five minutes prior to using the burner. Do not leave the burners on unattended.

WARNING

Use proper pan size. Do not use pans that are unstable or that can be easily tipped. Select cookware with flat bottoms large enough to cover burners. To avoid spillovers, make sure the cookware is large enough to contain the food properly. This will both save cleaning time and prevent hazardous accumulations of food, since heavy spattering or spillovers left on the range can ignite. Pans should not be larger than 11 in.(280 mm) in diameter. Use of oversized pans may discolor the stainless areas around the cooktop perimeter. Clean discolored areas with stainless steel appliance cleaner. Use pans with handles that can be easily grasped and remain cool.

CAUTION

Be sure that all surface controls are set in the Off position prior to supplying gas to the range.
Never leave the surface burners unattended at high flame settings. Boilovers may cause smoke and greasy spillovers that may ignite.
Always turn the knobs to the Lite position when igniting the top burners and make sure the burners have ignited.
Control the top burner flame size so it does not extend beyond the edge of the cookware. Excessive flame is hazardous.
Only use dry pot holders- moist or damp pot holders on hot surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do not let pot holders come near open flames when lifting cookware. Do not use towels or other bulky cloth items. Use a pot holder.
If using glass cookware, make sure the cookware is designed for range-top cooking.
To prevent burns from ignition of flammable materials and spillage, turn cookware handles toward the side or back of the range without extending them over adjacent burners.
Never leave any items on the cooktop. The hot air from the vent may ignite flammable items and will increase pressure in closed containers, which may cause them to burst.
Carefully watch foods being fried at a high flame setting.
Always heat fat slowly, and watch as it heats.
If frying combinations of oils and fats, stir together before heating.
Use a deep fat thermometer if possible to prevent fat from heating beyond the smoking point.
Use the least possible amount of fat for effective shallow or deep fat frying. Filling the pan with too much fat can cause spillovers when food is added.
Do not cook foods directly on an open flame on the cooktop.
Foods for frying should be as dry as possible. Frost or moisture on foods can cause hot fat to bubble up and spill over the sides of the pan.
Never try to move a pan of hot fat, especially a deep fryer. Wait until the fat is cool.
Do not place plastic items on the cooktop- they may melt if left too close to the vent.
Keep all plastics away from the surface burners.
To prevent burns, always be sure that the controls for all burners are in the Off position and all grates are cool before attempting to remove them.
If you smell gas, turn off the gas to the range and call a qualified service technician. Never use an open flame to locate a leak.
Always turn the knobs to the Off position before removing cookware.
Do not lift the cooktop. Lifting the cooktop can cause damage and improper operation of the range.
If the range is located near a window, do not hang long curtains that could blow over the surface burners and catch on fire.
Use care when cleaning the cooktop. The pointed metal ends on the electrodes could cause injury.
Stand away from the range while frying.
Keep an eye on foods being fried at high or medium high heat settings.

BROILER

Always use a broiler pan and a grid for excess fat and grease drainage. This will help to reduce splatter, smoke, and flare-ups. The igniter for the infrared ceramic broil burner on the ceiling of the oven will glow orange periodically during normal broil operation.

WARNING
When using your broiler, the temperature inside the oven will be extremely high. Take caution to avoid possible burns by:

Keeping the door closed when broiling (refer to Broil section of the manual)
Always wear oven mitts when inserting or removing food items

CAUTION
The infrared ceramic broiler will generate intense heat and will sear foods faster compared to regular bar type broilers. This broil system is designed to be operated under consumer-use conditions only. To avoid overheating and damaging the oven, do not use this broiler continuously for more than 45 minutes at a time.
Do not attempt to spray the broiler and its igniter with any type of cleaners or try to scrub it. This will damage the broiler system.
The ceramic plates of your broiler do not need to be manually cleaned. Any grease or splatter on the ceramic from cooking and baking will burn clean by simply turning on your broiler for about 10 minutes.

USING GRIDDLE

CAUTION

Don’t touch the griddle before it has cooled.
Don’t allow grease to accumulate in the griddle tray. Empty the griddle tray after every use. If you do not, a grease fire may occur.
Do not block the griddle vent by placing objects in front of the vent.
Do not pour cold water on the hot griddle. Doing so may crack the griddle.
Clean and dry the griddle thoroughly before first use to remove any residual oils from manufacturing.

FOOD PACKAGING AND STORAGE SAFETY INFORMATION

Always wash your hands carefully with soap and water before and after handling food.
Keep all work surfaces and utensils clean and disinfected before and after packaging foods.
Temperature, moisture, acidity, and salt or sugar content of foods can influence the growth of potentially harmful microorganisms in food.
For safety, vacuum-sealed fresh (perishable) foods should be kept in the “safe zones”: cooled to 40°F/4°C or below or heated to 130°F/55°C or above.
Vacuum-sealed pouches of cooked foods can be quick chilled by submerging them in ice water (half ice/half water) for 30 to 60 minutes and then refrigerated for up to 48 hours or frozen for up to a year.

ENERGY SAVING TIPS

Multiple-rack cooking saves time and energy. Whenever possible, cook foods requiring the same cooking temperature together in one oven.
For optimal performance and energy savings, follow the guides on page 46 for proper rack and pan placements.
Match the size of the cookware to the amount of food being cooked to save energy when heating. Heating ½ quart of water requires more energy in a 3-quart pot than in a 1-quart pot.
Match the size of the cooktop burner or element to the size of the cookware in use. Using a large element for a small pan wastes heating energy, and the exposed surface of the element is a burn or fire hazard.
Reduce energy use by cleaning light oven soils with the SpeedClean™ feature instead of self-clean.
Avoid opening the oven door more than necessary during use. This helps the oven maintain temperature, prevents unnecessary heat loss, and saves on energy use.

SAFETY

SAFETY DURING USE

Do not touch the oven racks while they are hot.
If a rack must be moved while the oven is hot, do not let the pot holder contact the hot heating element in the oven.
Use caution with the Timed Cook or Delayed Timed Cook features. Use the automatic timer when cooking cured or frozen meats and most fruits and vegetables. Foods that can easily spoil, such as milk, eggs, fish, meat or poultry, should be chilled in the refrigerator first. Even when chilled, they should not stand in the oven for more than 1 hour before cooking begins, and should be removed promptly when cooking is complete. Eating spoiled food can result in sickness from food poisoning.
Accessible parts may become hot when the grill is in use.
Do not place food or cookware on the bottom of the oven cavity. Doing so will cause permanent damage to the oven bottom finish.
Do not use water on grease fires. Should an oven fire occur, leave the oven door closed and turn the oven off. If the fire continues, throw baking soda on the fire or use a fire extinguisher. Do not put water or flour on the fire. Flour may be explosive and water can spread a grease fire and cause personal injury.
When disposing of the range, cut off the power cord and remove the door.
Do not make any attempt to operate the electric ignition oven during an electrical power failure.
Pull the oven rack to the stop-lock position when loading and unloading food from the oven. This helps prevent burns caused by touching hot surfaces of the door and oven walls.
Do not use the oven if a heating element develops a glowing spot during use or shows other signs of damage. A glowing spot indicates the heating element may fail and present a potential burn, fire, or shock hazard. Turn the oven off immediately and have the heating element replaced by a qualified service technician.
When using cooking or roasting bags in the oven, follow the manufacturer’s directions.

SAFETY WHEN CLEANING

Open a window or turn on a ventilation fan or hood before self-cleaning.
If the oven is heavily soiled with oil, self-clean the oven before using the oven again. The oil could cause a fire.
Wipe up heavy soil on the bottom of the oven before using the Self Clean function.
Do not use oven cleaners. Commercial oven cleaner or oven liner protective coating of any kind should not be used in or around any part of the oven.
Never keep pet birds in the kitchen. The health of birds is extremely sensitive to the fumes released during an oven self-clean cycle. Fumes may be harmful or fatal to birds. Move birds to a well-ventilated room.
Clean in the self-clean cycle only parts listed in this manual. Before self-cleaning the oven, remove the broiler pan, all oven racks, the meat probe and any utensils or food from the oven.
Important Instruction. The oven displays an F error code and sounds three long beeps if it malfunctions during the self-cleaning process. Switch off the electrical power to the main fuse or breaker and have the oven serviced by a qualified technician.
It is normal for the cooktop of the range to become hot during a self-clean cycle. Do not touch the cooktop during a self-clean cycle.
Never pour cold water over a hot oven for cleaning. Doing so may cause the oven to malfunction.
Make sure oven lights are cool before cleaning.
Do not clean door gasket. The door gasket is essential for a good seal. Care should be taken not to rub, damage, or move the gasket.
If there is a fire in the oven during self-clean, turn the oven off and wait for the fire to go out. Do not force the door open. Introduction of fresh air at self-clean temperatures may lead to a burst of flame from the oven. Failure to follow this instruction may result in severe burns.
For your safety, do not use high-pressure water cleaners or steam jet cleaners to clean the product.

COOK MEAT AND POULTRY THOROUGHLY

To protect against food-borne illnesses, cook meat and poultry thoroughly. The USDA has indicated the following as safe minimum internal temperatures for consumption:
- Ground meats: 160 °F
- All poultry: 165 °F
- Beef, veal, pork, or lamb: 145 °F
- Fish/seafood: 145 °F
