  • The appliance must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual shutoff valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psi (3.5 kPa).

Cooktop Safety Warnings

  • Do not place pans onto glass surface. Raise cover into full open position before operating burners. Let cooktop cool before closing glass cover.

  • If the cooktop is near a window, proper precautions should be taken to prevent curtains from blowing over burners creating a fire hazard.

  • Keep the area around the cooktop clean and clear of any combustible materials, gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids. Not doing so can cause an explosion and/or fire.

  • Do not leave children alone or unsupervised in area where cooktop is being used. The top burners, burner grates and other areas near the burners become hot enough to cause severe burns.

  • Keep the cooktop clean. The build-up of grease and food boil-over and/or spillage can create a fire hazard.

  • Turn pan handles inward or toward back of cooktop and out of the way of people walking past cooktop and/or out of the reach of children. Do not turn handles to where they are over the burners.

  • Never leave top burner(s) unattended.

    • For such reasons as down drafts that could be created by opening and closing of cabinet doors or doors within the RV or by positive or negative air pressures affecting burners due to improper installation. (See Installation section) The burner could extinguish resulting in gas escaping into the RV. Remember, gas flow to each burner is controlled manually, you must turn gas flow “ON” and “OFF”.
    • A boil over could occur and the spill could ignite.
  • Flame size

    • Never extend the flame beyond the outer edge of the utensil. A higher flame simply wastes heat and energy.
    • Correct flame size is determined by utensil size and material, what you are cooking and whether or not you are cooking with liquid.
      Flame size
  • To prevent damage to the cooktop, top burners, or top grate, never operate a top burner without a pan in place. The top burners, especially the high input burner, should not be operated on high for an extended period of time. The high setting should be used only to start the food cooking or to bring liquids to a boil, then reduce the flame to a lower setting to continue cooking. Use the low flame setting to keep food warm. Remember, a gas range heats quicker than an electric range, therefore, experiment with various settings until you feel comfortable cooking with gas.

  • Never use cookware which extends beyond one inch of the grate (maximum pan size 10″ diameter). Never place cooking utensil on grate to where it rests over two operating top burners. This will cause excessive heat buildup, which could result in damage to the grate, top burner(s) and cooktop.

  • Verify sufficient gas supply before attempting to light any top burner. Air in the gas supply line will significantly delay burner ignition, and a burner may light unexpectedly as the air in the line clears out and is replaced by LP gas, this unexpected ignition may burn you. Air may be introduced into the supply line when the vehicle gas bottle is replaced, during servicing of other gas appliances, etc.

  • DO NOT touch top burners, burner grates, or other areas near top burners during and after use. Do not let clothing or other flammable materials to contact top burners or areas near top burners until they have had sufficient time to cool.

  • Make sure the utensils you use are large enough to contain food and avoid boil overs and spillovers. Heavy splattering or spillovers left on the cooktop can ignite and burn you.

  • Be sure that glass cooking utensils are safe for use on the cooktop. Only certain kinds of glass utensils are suitable for surface or top burner use without breaking due to the sudden changes in temperature.

  • Grease is flammable. Never allow grease to collect around top burners or on cooktop surface. Wipe spillovers immediately.

  • Use care when lighting a top burner by hand. If the burner lights unexpectedly, or your hand is close to the burner, you may be burned.

  • DO NOT drop pans on the porcelain surface. Cracks or chips in the porcelain surface may result.

  • DO NOT leave an empty utensil, or one which has boiled dry, on a hot top burner. The utensil could overheat and damage the utensil or the cooking appliance.

Oven Safety Warnings

  • DO NOT touch any inner surfaces of the oven or oven door, or the wire rack inside, or any utensils inside the oven during and after use until these areas have had sufficient time to cool. You could be burned or injured. During and after use, do not let clothing or other flammable materials contact these areas until they have had sufficient time to cool.
  • DO NOT touch the outer surface of the oven door or the oven vent while the oven is in use. These areas may become hot enough to cause burns. During and after use, do not let clothing or other flammable materials contact these areas until they have had sufficient time to cool.
  • DO NOT cover the ventilation holes in the Flame Spreader Rack (shelf above oven burner). The air circulation inside the oven will be interrupted and cooking times will vary from normal, food may be burned or undercooked.
  • DO NOT use oven as a storage area.
  • If oven pilot should extinguish after initial lighting or due to accidental blowout, turn oven knob off and wait five (5) minutes before again attempting to light oven.
  • Always place oven racks in desired location while oven is cool. If rack must be moved while oven is hot, do not let potholder contact hot heating element in oven.
  • Use care when opening the oven door, let hot air or steam escape before removing or replacing food.
  • 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 airflow through the oven and may cause carbon monoxide poisoning. Aluminum foil linings may also trap heat, causing a fire hazard.

A good flame should be blue with a yellow tip. Some yellow tips on flames up to 1″ (25.4mm) in length are acceptable as long as no carbon or soot deposits appear. If flames are excessively yellow and irregular, the oil residue may not be completely burned off, or the venturi may be clogged or may not be properly positioned over the orifices.

Slow Cooking

The power of the side burners is lower than the center burner, we recommend you use the side burners for slow cooking purpose.

Cooking Advice

The oven offers a wide range of alternatives which allow you to cook any type of food in the best possible way. With time you will learn to make the best use of this versatile cooking appliance and the following directions are only a guideline which may be varied according to your own personal experience.

WARNING

Food Poisoning Hazard

  • Do not let food sit in oven more than one hour before or after cooking.
  • Doing so can result in food poisoning sickness.

Preheating

Preheating the gas oven doesn’t just heat the air in the oven but the walls and the door, which ensures that the oven will quickly return to that temperature when the door has been opened and then closed again.

Based on the cooking temperature to be set, the preheating time may vary. The suggested minimum preheat time is 15 minutes

Baking Cakes

When baking cakes, always place in the oven after it has been preheated (about 15 minutes). The temperature is normally around 350°F. Do not open the door while the cake is baking in order to prevent it from dropping.

In general:

Pastry is too dry| Increase the temperature by 50oF and reduce the cooking time
---|---
Pastry dropped| Use less liquid or lower the temperature by 50°F
Pastry is too dark on top| Place it on a lower rack, lower the temperature, and increase the cooking time.
Cooked well on the inside but sticky on the outside| Use less liquid, lower the temperature, and increase the cooking time.
The pastry sticks to the pan| Grease the pan well and sprinkle it with a dusting of flour or use greaseproof paper

Cooking Pizza

For tasty crispy pizzas:

  • Preheat the oven for at least 15 minutes.
  • Place the pizza pan on the rack supplied with the oven. If the dripping pan is used, this will extend the cooking time, making it difficult to get a crispy crust.
  • Do not open the oven door frequently while the pizza is cooking;
  • If the pizza has a lot of toppings (three or four), we recommend you add the mozzarella cheese on top halfway through the cooking process.

Cooking Fish and Meat

When cooking white meat, fowl and fish, use temperature settings from 335°F to 375°F. For red meat that should be well done on the outside while tender and juicy in the inside, it is a good idea to start with a high temperature setting (375°F~425°F) for a short time, then turn the oven down afterwards.

In general, the larger the roast, the lower the temperature setting. Place the meat on the center of the grate and place the dripping pan beneath to catch the drippings. Make sure that grate is inserted so that it is in the center of the oven. If you would like to increase the amount of heat from below, use the low rack heights. For savory roasts (especially duck and wild game), dress the meat with lard or bacon on the top.

Cleaning and Maintenance

  • Make sure all the control knobs are off and the appliance is cool before cleaning.
  • Make sure all the appliance surfaces, burner grates and burners are cool before cleaning or disassembling.
  • DO NOT use bleach or rust removers on the cooktop or burner grates.
  • DO NOT obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air.
  • Keep the appliance area clear of combustible materials, gasoline and other flammable vapors and liquids.
  • Clean oven with oven cleaner only. Follow directions on the container.
  • Never use a wire brush or metallic item for cleaning burner ports or  orifices. Brush may “shed” bristles that may lodge in the orifice or burner ports and cause a fire or explosion.
  • Clean all surfaces as soon as possible after boilovers or spillovers.
  • Use warm soapy water only to clean the burner grates, cooktops, painted surfaces, porcelain surfaces, stainless steel surfaces and plastic items on your range or cooktop. Do not use grit or acid-type cleaners. Do not use cleaners with ammonia, Cleaners of these types are corrosive and could damage component parts in the range.
  • DO NOT use steel wool, or abrasive cleaners, or acid type cleaners such as chlorine bleach on your cooktop or grate systems. They will damage your range or cooktop. Use only non-abrasive plastic scrubbing pads.
  • DO NOT allow foods containing acids (such as lemons or tomato juice, or vinegar) to remain on porcelain or painted surfaces. Acids may remove the glossy finish. Wipe up egg spills when cooktop is cool.
  • DO NOT wash warm porcelain surfaces. Allow these areas to cool before cleaning. You could burn yourself or the porcelain could crack.
  • Pitting and discoloration will result if spills are allowed to remain for any length of time on stainless steel.
  • DO NOT allow spillovers to remain on the burner caps. The caps could become permanently stained.
  • When cleaning around the burners use care to prevent damage to the electrode (if so equipped). If a sponge or cloth should catch the metal igniter electrode, it could damage or break the electrode. If this occurs the burner will not light.

The Oven Door

WARNING

When removing the door:

  • Do not place excessive weight on an open oven door or stand on an open oven door as, in some cases, it could cause the range to tip over, break or damage the door to the extent that the range would be unsafe to use, or cause serious injury to the user.
  • When opening the oven door, allow steam and hot air to escape before reaching in oven to check, add or remove food.
  • Make sure oven is cool and power to the oven has been turned off before removing the door. Failure to do so could result in electrical shock or burns.
