Gas appliances can cause minor exposure to four of these substances, namely
benzene, carbon monoxide, formaldehyde and soot, caused primarily by the
incomplete combustion of natural gas fuel. When operating your range on
natural gas, the flames from the burners should be blue in color. In addition,
the flames should be stable, free of yellow tipping, excessive noise and
lifting. However, this yellow tipping should be restricted to the primary
flame kernels only. Properly adjusted burners,indicated by a bluish rather
than a yellow flame, will minimize incomplete combustion. Exposure to those
substances can be minimized by venting with an open window or use of a
ventilation fan or hood.

- Surface Burner 3](https://manuals.plus/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/KUCHT-KFX-
Series-48-Inch-White-Gas-Freestanding-Range-Surface-Burner-3.jpg)
---|---|---
Make sure the knob indicate on the off position,then Push to release gas.| Turn to Ignite and ‘Hi’ position.| Adjust to appropriate flame height.
To light the surface burners, push and turn the appropriate control knob
counter clockwise to a “Hi” position. You will hear a clicking noise — the
sound of the electric spark igniting the burner.
Once burner ignition has been achieved, turn the burner control knob to adjust
the flame size. If the knob stays at “Hi’’, it will continue to click.
NOTE: When one burner is turned to the “Hi” position, all the burners
will spark.
Do not attempt to disassemble or clean around any burner while another burner
is on. Do not touch any burner cap, burner base, or igniter while the igniters
are sparking.
Heat Settings:
Hi | Ignites the burners. |
---|---|
Simmer | Melting small quantities, steaming rice,warming food, melting |
chocolate or butter.
Low| Melting large quantities.
Low-Medium| Low-temperature flying, simmering large quantities,heating
milk,cream sauces,gravies.
Medium| Sautéing and browning,braising,pan-frying,maintaining slow boil on
large quantities.
Medium — Hi| High-temperature frying, pan boiling, maintaining slow boil on
large quantities.
Hi| Boiling liquid quickly, deep flying.
Simmer and Boil
- Asmaller flame will give the best simmer results.Small flames offer precise cooking performance for delicate foods, keeping food warm, melting chocolate or butter,and for cooking that need to cook over low heat for a long time.
- The highest (larger) flame settings provide the maximum heat that is available on your range. This setting should be used for heavy cooking loads such as water boiling and pasta cooking.
Flame Size
- When you select the flame size,watch the flame when you turn the knob.
- Any flame larger than the bottom of the cookware is wasted.
- The flame should be steady and blue in color. Foreign material in the gas line may cause an orange flame during initial operation.
Power Failure
- If the gas does not ignite within four seconds, turn off the valve and allow at least five minutes for any gas to dissipate. Repeat the lighting procedure.
- If the power fails, the surface burners can be lighted manually. Hold a lighted match near a burner and turn knob counterclockwise to “HI”. After burner lights,turn knob to setting.
Cooktop
- To prevent the cooktop from discoloring or staining, clean cooktop after each use, and wipe up acidic or sugary spills as soon as the cooktop has cooled.
- The sealed burners of your range are not secured to the cooktop and are designed to be removed.Boil overs or spills will not seep underneath the cooktop. The burners should be cleaned after each use.
Oven Vent
- Do not block the ducts at the rear of the range when cooking in the oven. It is important that the flow of hot air from the oven and fresh air into the oven burner never be interrupted. Avoid touching the vent Opening or nearby surfaces during oven or broiler operation — they may become hot.
FOOD SAFETY
According to the United States Department of Agriculture: DO NOT hold foods at
temperatures between 40°F to 140°F more than 2 hours.Cooking raw foods below
275°F is not recommended.
Never use this appliance as a space heater to heat or warm the room. Doing so many result in carbon monoxide poisoning and overheating of the oven. Never use this appliance as a storage space and storage cabinet areas
Never use this appliance doors or drawers such as stepping.
Leaning or setting on the doors or drawers,may result in hazards and injuries
Burner Grates
- The grates must be properly positioned before cooking.I mproper installation of the grates may result in scratching of the cooktop and / or poor combustion.
- Do not operate the burners without a pan or utensil on the grates
Oven Operation
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 lining may
also trap heat, causing a fire hazard. Do not use Aluminum Foil on any
porcelain surface. Doing so will damage the porcelain
Oven Function Natural Airflow Bake occurs when heat 1s transferred into
the oven from the bake burners 1n the bottom of the oven cavity. Heat is then
circulated by natural airflow. This is a traditional bake setting.
Infrared Broil
The broil burner is located at the top of the oven. This burner heats the
metal screen until it glows. The glowing screen produces the infrared heat,
searing the outside of broiled foods and sealing in juices.
Convection Bake
Heat is transferred from the bake burners in the bottom of the oven cavity to
the oven cavity it self. The convection fan in the rear of the oven then
circulates it.
This convection process provides more even heat distribution throughout the
oven cavity. Multiple rack use is possible for the large baking jobs.
Convection cooking is faster, can be accomplished at lower temperatures and
provides more even temperatures than regular cooking.
Without oven bottom cover replace oven bottom cover before using oven
Convection Roast
The convection fan circulates the heated air evenly over and around the
food. Using the cover and broiler pan provided, heated air will be circulated
over the food being roasted. The heated air seals in juices quickly for a
moist and tender product, while at the same time creating a rich golden brown
exterior. When convection roasting, it is important that you use the broiler
pan for the best convection roasting results. The pan is used to catch grease
spills and has a cover to prevent grease splatters.
Preheating
Preheat the oven to the temperature stated in the recipe before most
baking.
Depending on the temperature and the size of the oven, preheating will take
around 15-20 minutes.
Convection Defrost
With temperature control off, the motorized fan in the rear of the oven
circulates air.
The fan accelerates the natural defrosting of the food without heat. To avoid
illness and food waste, do not allow defrosted food to remain in the oven for
more than two hours without being cooked.
Convection Dehydrate
With the temperature control at 175°F, warm air is radiated from the bake
burners in the bottom of the oven cavity and is circulated by a motorized fan
in the rear of the oven.
Over a period of time, the water is removed from the food by evaporation.
Removal of water inhibits the growth of microorganisms and retards the
activity of enzymes.
BEFORE BAKING OR BROILING
The oven and broiler should be turned on to burn off the manufacturing
oils.
Turn the oven on to 450°F (230°C) for 20 to 30 minutes; then turn the oven
knob to “Broil” for the same length of time. You may wish to turn on the
ventilator above your range at this time
Broiler Operation
Note: Door must be closed during broiling operation.
Broiling is a method of cooking tender cuts of meat directly under the
infrared broiler in the oven. Broiling in the oven is accomplished with the
oven door closed. It is normal and necessary for some smoke to be present to
give the food a broiled flavour.
Preheating
Preheating is suggested when searing rare steaks (Remove the broiler pan
before preheating with the infrared broiler. Foods will stick on hot metal).
To preheat, turn the “Oven” selector knob to the “Broil” position. Wait for
the burner to become hot, approximately 2 minutes. Preheating is not
necessary when broiling meat well-done.
To Broil
Broil one side until the food is browned; turn and cook on the second side.
Season and serve. Always pull the rack out to the “stop” position before
turning or removing food.
Setting Broil
The “Oven’’selector knob controls the Broil feature. When broiling, heat
radiates downward from the oven broiler for even coverage. The Broil feature
temperature is 500°F (260°C).
The broil pan and insert used together allow dripping grease to drain and be
kept away from the high heat of the oven broiler. DO NOT use the broil pan
without the insert. DO NOT cover the broil pan insert with foil. The exposed
grease could catch fire.
To set the oven to Broil:
- Place the broiler pan insert on the broiler pan. Then place the food on the broiler pan and insert
- Arrange the interior oven rack and place the broiler pan on rack. Be sure to centre the broiler pan and position directly under the broil burner. If preheating the broil burner first, position the broiler pan after the broil burner is preheated.
- Turn selector knob to Broil.
The oven indicator light will remain on until the selector knob is turned to the off position or the temperature control cycles off.
Griddle Operation
Before Using the Griddle
- Clean the griddle thoroughly with warm, soapy water to remove dust or any protective coating.
- Rinse with clean water and wipe off to dry with a soft, clean, lint-free towel/cloth.
- A stainless steel cover that is sized to fit on top of the surface when the griddle is not being used is provided. Please note — the cover must be removed before turning the griddle on.
- Make sure the grease tray is under the front edge of the griddle. Position the tray under the griddle overhang to catch grease or food residue.
Use of the Griddle
- Push and turn the control knob counter-clockwise to the preferred cooking temperature.
- Preheat the griddle for 10-12 minutes
- When the griddle is preheated to the desired temperature, the indicator light will turn on.
- Butter or cooking oil can be added for more flavour, then place the food to cook.
CAUTION:
The surface of the griddle is hot after use. Please allow sufficient time for
the griddle to cool prior to cleaning.
When using the appliance for the first time, the oven and broiler burners
should be turned on the burn off the manufactured oils. Turn the oven on the
450°F [230 ‘C for 20 to 30 minutes, then turn the oven control knob to
“Broil” for the same length of time. It is recommended to turn on the
ventilator above the range at this time.
