SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE
The California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act requires the Governor of California to
publish a list of substances known to the state to cause birth defects or other reproductive harm, and
requires businesses to warn customers of potential exposure to such substances.
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 or
LP fuels. Properly adjusted burners, indicated by a bluish rather than a yellow flame, will minimize
incomplete combustion. Exposure to these substances can be minimized by venting with an open
window or using a ventilation fan or hood.
Locate the range out of kitchen traffic path
and out of drafty locations to prevent poor
air circulation.
Be sure all packaging materials are removed
from the range before operating it to
prevent fire or smoke damage should the
packaging material ignite.
Be sure your range is correctly adjusted by
a qualified service technician or installer for
the type of gas (natural or LP) that is to be
used. Your range can be converted for use
with either type of gas. See the Installation
of the range section.
WARNING: These adjustments must
be made by a qualified service technician
in accordance with 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 this work
assumes responsibility for the conversion.
After prolonged use of a range, high floor
temperatures may result and 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.
Do not leave children alone or unattended
where a range is hot or in operation. They
could be seriously burned.
Do not allow anyone to climb, stand or hang
on the oven door, broiler compartment or
cooktop. They could damage the range and
even tip it over, causing severe personal
injury.
CAUTION: Items of interest to
children should not be stored in cabinets
above a range or on the backsplash of a
rangechildren climbing on the range
to reach items could be seriously injured.
Clean only parts listed in this Owners
Manual.
Never wear loose fitting or hanging garments
while using the appliance. Be careful when
reaching for items stored in cabinets over the
range. Flammable material could be ignited
if brought in contact with flame or hot oven
surfaces and may cause severe burns.
Do not store flammable materials in an
oven, a range broiler, behind the kick panel
or near a cooktop.
Do not store or use combustible materials,
gasoline or other flammable vapors and
liquids in the vicinity of this or any other
appliance.
Do not let cooking grease or other
flammable materials accumulate in or
near the range.
Do not use water on grease fires. Never pick
up a flaming pan. Turn the controls off.
Smother a flaming pan on a surface burner
by covering the pan completely with a
well-fitting lid, cookie sheet or flat tray.
Use a multi-purpose dry chemical or
foam-type fire extinguisher.
Flaming grease outside a pan can be put
out by covering it with baking soda or,
if available, by using a multi-purpose dry
chemical or foam-type fire extinguisher.
Flame in the oven can be smothered
completely by closing the oven door and
turning the control to off or by using a
multi-purpose dry chemical or foam-type
fire extinguisher.
Let the burner grates and other surfaces
cool before touching them or leaving them
where children can reach them.
Never block the vents (air openings) of the
range. They provide the air inlet and outlet
that are necessary for the range to operate
properly with correct combustion. Air
openings are located at the rear of the
cooktop, at the top and bottom of the oven
door, and at the bottom of the range under
the broiler compartment or kick panel.
Large scratches or impacts to glass doors can
lead to broken or shattered glass.

Do not use the oven for a storage area.
Items stored in the oven can ignite.
Keep the oven free from grease buildup.
Place the oven shelves in the desired
position while the oven is cool.
Pulling out the shelf to the stop-lock is a
convenience in lifting heavy foods. It is also
a precaution against burns from touching
hot surfaces of the door or oven walls. The
lowest position is not designed to slide.
Do not heat unopened food containers.
Pressure could build up and the container
could burst, causing an injury.
Do not use aluminum foil anywhere in the
oven except as described in this manual.
Misuse could result in a fire hazard or
damage to the range.
When using cooking or roasting bags in the
oven, follow the manufacturer’s directions.
Do not use your oven to dry newspapers.
If overheated, they can catch fire.
Use only glass cookware that is
recommended for use in gas ovens.
Always remove the broiler pan from range
as soon as you finish broiling. Grease left in
the pan can catch fire if oven is used without
removing the grease from the broiler pan.
When broiling, if meat is too close to the
flame, the fat may ignite. Trim excess fat to
prevent excessive flare-ups.
Make sure the broiler pan is in place
correctly to reduce the possibility of
grease fires.
If you should have a grease fire in the broiler
pan, turn off the oven control, and keep
the broiler compartment and oven door
closed to contain fire until it burns out.
For safety and proper cooking performance,
always bake and broil with the oven door
closed.
Stand away from the range when opening the door of a hot oven. The hot air and steam that escape
can cause burns to hands, face and eyes.
OVEN
COOK MEAT AND POULTRY THOROUGHLY
Cook meat and poultry thoroughly—meat to at least an INTERNAL temperature of 160°F and poultry to
at least an INTERNAL temperature of 180°F. Cooking to these temperatures usually protects against
foodborne illness.
WARNING: NEVER cover
any slots, holes or passages in the oven
bottom or cover an entire shelf 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.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION.
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.
SURFACE BURNERS
Use proper pan sizeavoid pans that are unstable or easily tipped. Select cookware having flat bottoms
large enough to cover burner grates. To avoid spillovers, make sure 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 range can ignite. Use pans with handles that can be easily grasped
and remain cool.
Always use the LITE position when igniting
the top burners and make sure the burners
have ignited.
Never leave the surface burners unattended
at high flame settings. Boilovers cause
smoking and greasy spillovers that may
catch on fire.
Adjust the top burner flame size so it
does not extend beyond the edge of the
cookware. Excessive flame is hazardous.
Use only dry pot holdersmoist 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 a towel or other
bulky cloth in place of a pot holder.
When using glass cookware, make sure it
is designed for top-of-range cooking.
To minimize the possibility of burns,
ignition of flammable materials and spillage,
turn cookware handles toward the side or
back of the range without extending over
adjacent burners.
Carefully watch foods being fried at a high
flame setting.
Always heat fat slowly, and watch as it heats.
Do not 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.
If a combination of oils or fats will be used in
frying, stir together before heating or as fats
melt slowly.
Use a deep fat thermometer whenever
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 too full of fat can cause spillovers
when food is added.
Do not flame foods on the cooktop. If you do
flame foods under the hood, turn the fan on.
Do not use a wok on the cooking surface
if the wok has a round metal ring that is
placed over the burner grate to support
the wok. This ring acts as a heat trap,
which may damage the burner grate and
burner head. Also, it may cause the burner
to work improperly. This may cause a
carbon monoxide level above that
allowed by current standards, resulting
in a health hazard.
WARNING!
READ AND FOLLOW THIS SAFETY INFORMATION CAREFULLY.

Do not use aluminum foil to line the
griddle. Misuse could result in a fire hazard.
Never leave the kitchen while using the
griddle.
Foods for frying should be as dry as possible.
Frost on frozen foods or moisture on fresh
foods can cause hot fat to bubble up and
over the sides of the pan.
Never try to move a pan of hot fat, especially
a deep fat fryer. Wait until the fat is cool.
Do not leave plastic items on the cooktop—
they may melt if left too close to the vent.
Keep all plastics away from the surface
burners.
To avoid the possibility of a burn, always be
certain that the controls for all burners are
at the position and all grates and theOFF
griddle are cool before attempting to
remove them.
If range is located near a window, do not
hang long curtains that could blow over the
surface burners and create a fire hazard.
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 surface burner controls off
before removing cookware or the griddle.
Do not lift the cooktop. Lifting the cooktop
can lead to damage and improper operation
of the range.
Do not place or store items that can melt or
catch fire on the grates, even when the
cooktop is not being used.
Keep range clean and free of accumulations
of grease or spillovers, which may ignite.

How to Light a Gas Surface Burner
Make sure all the surface burners are
placed in their respective positions.
Push the control knob in and turn it
to the LITE position.
You will hear a little clicking noise
the sound of the electric spark igniting
the burner.
Turn the knob to adjust the flame size.
If the knob stays at LITE, it will continue
to click.
When one burner is turned to LITE,
all the burners spark. Do not attempt to
disassemble or clean around any burner
while another burner is on. An electric
shock may result, which could cause you
to knock over hot cookware.
Push the control knob in and turn it
to the LITE position.
Using the gas surface burners.
Before Lighting a Gas Burner After Lighting a Gas Burner
Make sure all burners are in place.
Make sure all grates (and the center
griddle, if it is going to be used) on the
range are properly placed before using
any burner.
Do not operate the burner for an
extended period of time without
cookware on the grate. The finish on
the grate may chip without cookware
to absorb the heat.
Be sure the burners, griddle and grates
are cool before you place your hand, a
pot holder, cleaning cloths or other
materials on them.
Surface Burner Controls
Knobs that turn the surface burners on and
off are marked as to which burners they
control. The two knobs on the left control
the left front and left rear burners. The two
knobs on the right control the right front
and right rear burners. The center left knob
controls the center oval burner.
The center oval burner is the largest in size
and is for large oval pots/pans, round
pots/pans 10 or greater in diameter or
with the griddle.
The side burners are all the same size
and power.
How to Select Flame Size
For safe handling of cookware, never let the flames
extend up the sides of the cookware.
Watch the flame, not the knob, as you
reduce 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
of the cookware and could be hazardous.
Use only large oval pots/pans, round
pots/pans 10 or greater in diameter or
the griddle on the center burner.

Use a flat-bottomed wok.
Top-of-Range Cookware
Aluminum: Medium-weight cookware is
recommended because it heats quickly
and evenly. Most foods brown evenly in an
aluminum skillet. Use saucepans with tight-
fitting lids when cooking with minimum
amounts of water.
Cast-Iron: If heated slowly, most skillets will
give satisfactory results.
Enamelware: Under some conditions,
the enamel of some cookware may melt.
Follow cookware manufacturers
recommendations for cooking methods.
Glass: There are two types of glass
cookware—those for oven use only and
those for top-of-range cooking (saucepans,
coffee and teapots). Glass conducts heat
very slowly.
Heatproof Glass Ceramic: Can be used for
either surface or oven cooking. It conducts
heat very slowly and cools very slowly. Check
cookware manufacturer’s directions to be
sure it can be used on gas ranges.
Stainless Steel: This metal alone has poor
heating properties and is usually combined
with copper, aluminum or other metals for
improved heat distribution. Combination
metal skillets usually work satisfactorily if
they are used with medium heat as the
manufacturer recommends.
Stove Top Grills
Do not use stove top grills on your sealed
gas burners. If you use the stove top grill
on the sealed gas burner, it will cause
incomplete combustion and can result
in exposure to carbon monoxide levels
above allowable standards.
This can be hazardous to your health.
Wok This Way
We recommend that you use a 14 or 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 flat-bottomed wok on a
support ring. Placing the ring over the
burner or grate may cause the burner
to work improperly, resulting in carbon
monoxide levels above allowable standards.
This could be dangerous to your health.
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 position. Use extreme cautionLITE
when lighting burners this way.
Surface burners in use when an electrical
power failure occurs will continue to
operate normally.

To avoid possible burns, place the shelves in the desired position before you turn the oven on.
Oven Vent
Your oven is vented through ducts at the
rear of the range. Do not block these ducts
when cooking in the oven—it is important
that the flow of hot air from the oven
and fresh air to the oven burner be
uninterrupted. Avoid touching the vent
openings or nearby surfaces during oven or
broiler operation—they may become hot.
Handles of pots and pans on the cooktop may
become hot if left too close to the vent.
Do not leave plastic or flammable items on the
cooktop—they may melt or ignite if left too close
to the vent.
Do not leave closed containers on the cooktop.
The pressure in closed containers may increase,
which may cause them to burst.
Metal items will become very hot if they are left
on the cooktop, and could cause burns.
Plastic items on the cooktop may
melt if left too close to the vent.
Vent appearance and location vary.
Using the oven.
Before you begin…
The shelves have stop-locks, so that when
placed correctly on the shelf supports
(A through E), they will stop before
coming completely out, and will not tilt.
When placing and removing cookware,
pull the shelf out to the bump on the
shelf support.
To remove a shelf, pull it toward you, tilt the
front end up and pull it out.
To replace, place the end of the shelf
(stop-locks) on the support, tilt up the
front and push the shelf in.
NOTE: The shelf is not designed to slide out at the
special low shelf (R) position.
The oven has 5 shelf positions.
It also has a special low shelf
position (R) for extra large items,
such as a large turkey.
Power Outage
CAUTION: Do not make any
attempt to operate the electric ignition oven
during an electrical power failure.
The oven or broiler cannot be lit during
a power failure. Gas will not flow unless
the glow bar is hot.
If the oven is in use when a power failure
occurs, the oven burner shuts off and
cannot be re-lit until power is restored. This
is because the flow of gas is automatically
stopped and will not resume when power
is restored until the glow bar has reached
operating temperature.

Preheating and Pan Placement
Preheat the oven if the recipe calls for it.
To preheat, set the oven at the correct
temperature. Preheating is necessary for
good results when baking cakes, cookies,
pastry and breads.
For ovens without a preheat indicator light or tone,
preheat 10 minutes.
Baking results will be better if baking
pans are centered in the oven as much
as possible. Pans should not touch each
other or the walls of the oven. If you need
to use two shelves, stagger the pans so one
is not directly above the other, and leave
approximately 112between pans, from
the front, back and sides of the wall.

How to Set the Oven for Baking or Roasting
Your oven is not designed for open-door cooking.
Close the oven door. Turn the OVEN
CONTROL knob to the desired
temperature.
Check food for doneness at minimum
time on recipe. Cook longer if
necessary.
Turn the OVEN CONTROL knob to
OFF when baking is finished and then
remove the food from the oven.

Aluminum Foil
Never cover the oven bottom with
aluminum foil.
You can use aluminum foil to line the
broiler pan and broiler grid. However,
you must mold the foil tightly to the
grid and cut slits in it just like the grid.
Aluminum foil may also be used to catch
a spillover. To do so, place a small sheet of
foil on a lower shelf several inches below
the food.
Never entirely cover a shelf with aluminum
foil. This will disturb the heat circulation
and result in poor baking.
Oven Moisture
As your oven heats up, the temperature
change of the air in the oven may cause
water droplets to form on the door glass.
These droplets are harmless and will
evaporate as the oven continues to heat up.
Cut slits in the foil just like the grid.
The oven has a special low shelf (R)
position just above the oven bottom.
Use it when extra cooking space is
needed, for example, when cooking
a large turkey. The shelf is not
designed to slide out at this position.

Broiling is cooking food by direct heat from
above the food. Most fish and tender cuts of
meat can be broiled. Follow these directions
to keep spattering and smoking to a
minimum.
Your range has a compartment below the
oven for broiling.
Both the oven and broiler compartment doors
must be CLOSED during broiling.
Turn most foods once during cooking (the
exception is thin fillets of fish; oil one side,
place that side down on broiler grid and
cook without turning until done). Time
foods for about one-half the total cooking
time, turn food, then continue to cook to
preferred doneness.
You can change the distance of
the food from the heat source by
positioning the broiler pan and grid
on one of three shelf positions in the
broiler compartment—A (bottom of
broiler compartment), B (middle) and
C (top).
Preheating the broiler or oven is not
necessary and can produce poor
results.
If meat has fat or gristle around the
edge, cut vertical slashes through both
about 2 apart. If desired, the fat may
be trimmed, leaving a layer about 1/8
thick.
Arrange the food on the grid and
position the broiler pan on the
appropriate shelf in the oven or
broiling compartment. Placing food
closer to the flame increases exterior
browning of the food, but also
increases spattering and the possibility
of fats and meat juices igniting.
Close the oven and broiler
compartment door.
Turn the knob toOVEN CONTROL
BROIL.
Turn the knob to OVEN CONTROL OFF.
Remove the broiler pan from the
broiler compartment and serve the
food immediately. Leave the pan
outside the range to cool.
Using Aluminum Foil
You can use aluminum foil to line your
broiler pan and broiler grid. However, you
must mold the foil tightly to the grid and
cut slits in it just like the grid.

The size, weight, thickness,
starting temperature and
your preference of doneness
will affect broiling times.
This guide is based on meats
at refrigerator temperature.
†The U.S. Department of Agriculture
says “Rare beef is popular, but you
should know that cooking it to only
140°F means some food poisoning
organisms may survive.” (Source:
Safe Food Book, Your Kitchen Guide,
USDA Rev. June 1985.)
Broiling Guide
The oven and broiler compartment doors must
be closed during broiling.
Always use the broiler pan and grid that
comes with your range. It is designed to
minimize smoking and spattering by
trapping juices in the shielded lower part
of the pan.
For steaks and chops, slash fat evenly
around the outside edges of the meat. To
slash, cut crosswise through the outer fat
surface just to the edge of the meat. Use
tongs to turn the meat over to prevent
piercing the meat and losing juices.
If desired, marinate meats or chicken
before broiling. Or brush with barbecue
sauce last 5 to 10 minutes only.
When arranging the food on the pan, do
not let fatty edges hang over the sides
because dripping fat could soil the oven.
The broiler compartment does not need
to be preheated. However, for very thin
foods, or to increase browning, preheat if
desired.
Frozen steaks can be broiled by
positioning the shelf at the next lowest
shelf position and increasing the cooking
time given in this guide 112times per
side.
The oven has 5 shelf positions.

Adjust the oven thermostatDo it yourself!
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 2040 degrees.
NOTE: This adjustment will not affect the broiling temperature.
To Adjust the Thermostat
Pull the OVEN CONTROL knob off the
range and look at the back side.
To make an adjustment, loosen
(approximately one turn), but do not
completely remove, the two screws on
the back of the knob.
With the back of the knob facing you,
hold the outer edge of the knob with
one hand and turn the front of the
knob with the other hand.
To raise the oven temperature, move the
top screw toward the right. You’ll hear
a click for each notch you move the
knob.
To lower the temperature, move the top
screw toward the left.
Each click will change the oven
temperature approximately 1F.
(Range is plus or minus 6F from the
arrow.) We suggest that you make the
adjustment one click from the original
setting and check oven performance
before making any additional
adjustments.
After the adjustment is made, retighten
screws so they are snug, but be careful
not to overtighten.
Re-install knob on range and check
performance.
Most recipes for baking have been developed using high-fat products such as butter or margarine (80% fat). If you
decrease the fat, the recipe may not give the same results as with a higher-fat product.
Recipe failure can result if cakes, pies, pastries, cookies or candies are made with low-fat spreads. The lower the fat
content of a spread product, the more noticeable these differences become.
Federal standards require products labeledmargarine” to contain at least 80% fat by weight. Low-fat spreads, on the
other hand, contain less fat and more water. The high moisture content of these spreads affects the texture and flavor
of baked goods. For best results with your old favorite recipes, use margarine, butter or stick spreads containing at least
70% vegetable oil.
The type of margarine will affect baking performance!
Appearance may vary.

Care and cleaning of the range. ge.com
Consumer SupportOperating InstructionsSafety Instructions Installation Instructions Troubleshooting Tips
Be sure electrical power is off and all surfaces are cool before cleaning any part of the range.
If your range is removed for cleaning, servicing or any reason, be sure the anti-tip device
is re-engaged properly when the range is replaced. Failure to take this precaution could
result in tipping of the range and cause injury.
Griddle
NOTES:
The griddle is to be used on the center
burner grate only.
Do not clean the griddle in a dishwasher.
Thoroughly clean the griddle of grease and
food particles, using a square-edged spatula,
while it is still hot.
Wipe the griddle with a dry, heavy, coarse
cloth to remove any remaining residue and
food particles.
Wash with hot soapy water, rinse and dry.
Once the griddle has cooled, rub the
surface lightly with vegetable oil. Do not use
corn oil or cooking sprays as they get sticky.
If the griddle is cleaned with anything other
than a dry, heavy, coarse cloth, it will need
to be reseasoned.
Never flood the hot griddle with cold water.
This could cause the griddle to crack or
warp.
As the griddle is used and seasoned, it may
change color over time.
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.

The electrode of the spark igniter is
exposed when the burner head is
removed. When one burner is turned
to LITE, all the burners spark. Do not
attempt to disassemble or clean
around any burner while another
burner is on. An electric shock may
result, which could cause you to
knock over hot cookware.
Burner Assemblies
Turn all controls OFF before removing the
burner parts.
The burner grates, caps, burner heads and

Burner Caps and Heads
Burner caps
Lift off when cool. Wash burner caps
in hot, soapy water and rinse with clean
water. You may scour with a plastic scouring
pad to remove burned-on food particles.
Burner heads
For proper ignition, make sure the
small hole in the section that fits over the
electrode is kept open. A sewing needle
or wire twist-tie works well to unclog it.
The slits in the burner heads must be kept clean
at all times for an even, unhampered flame.
Clogged or dirty burner ports or electrodes
will not allow the burner to operate properly.
Any spill on or around an electrode must
be carefully cleaned. Take care to not hit an
electrode with anything hard or it could
be damaged.
You should clean the burner caps and
burner heads routinely, especially after bad
spillovers, which could clog the openings
in the burner heads. Lift off when cool.
To remove burned-on food, soak the
burner heads in a solution of mild liquid
detergent and hot water for 20–30 minutes.
For more stubborn stains, use a toothbrush.
NOTE: Do not use steel wool or scouring powders
to clean the burners.
After cleaning
Before putting the burner caps and heads
back, shake out excess water and then dry
them thoroughly by setting in a warm oven
for 30 minutes.
Replacement
Replace the burner heads and caps. Make
sure that the heads and caps are replaced
in the correct location. There is one oval

Burner Grates
Lift out when cool. First remove the center
grate and then the side grates. Grates
should be washed regularly and, of course,
after spillovers. Wash them in hot, soapy
water and rinse with clean water. After
cleaning, dry them thoroughly by putting
them in a warm oven for a few minutes.
Dont put the grates back on the range
while they are wet. When replacing the
grates, be sure they are positioned securely
over the burners.
Do not operate a burner for an extended
period of time without cookware on the
grate. The finish on the grate may chip
without cookware to absorb the heat.
To replace the grates:
Place the side grates in position on the
cooktop.
Place the center grate on the cooktop,
making sure the locking feet hook
over the side grates.
To get rid of burned-on food, place the
grates in a covered container. Add 1/4 cup
ammonia and let them soak several hours
or overnight. Wash, rinse well and dry.
Although they are durable, the grates
will gradually lose their shine, regardless
of the best care you can give them. This is
due to their continual exposure to high
temperatures. You will notice this sooner
with lighter color grates.
Cooktop Surface
To avoid damaging the porcelain enamel
surface of the cooktop and to prevent it
from becoming dull, clean up spills right
away. Foods with a lot of acid (tomatoes,
sauerkraut, fruit juices, etc.) or foods with
high sugar content could cause a dull spot
if allowed to set.
When the surface has cooled, wash and
rinse. For other spills such as fat spatterings,
etc., wash with soap and water once the
surface has cooled. Then rinse and polish
with a dry cloth.
NOTE: Do not lift the cooktop. Lifting the cooktop
can lead to damage and improper operation of
the range.
NOTE: Do not store flammable materials in
an oven or near the cooktop. Do not store or
use combustible materials, gasoline or other
flammable vapors and liquids in the vicinity
of this or any other appliance.

Lift-Off Oven Door
The oven door is removable, but it is heavy. You may
need help removing and replacing the door.
To remove the door, open it a few inches to
the special stop position that will hold the
door open. Grasp firmly on each side and
lift the door straight up and off the hinges.
NOTE: Be careful not to place hands between the
hinge and the oven door frame as the hinge could
snap back and pinch fingers.
To replace the door, make sure the hinges
are in the special stop position. Position
the slots in the bottom of the door squarely
over the hinges. Then lower the door
slowly and evenly over both hinges at the
same time. If the hinges snap back against
the oven frame, pull them back out.
To clean the inside of the door:
Do not allow excess water to run into
any holes or slots in the door.
The area outside the gasket can be
cleaned with a soap-filled steel wool or
plastic pad.
To clean the outside of the door:
Use soap and water to thoroughly clean
the top, sides and front of the oven door.
Rinse well. You may also use a glass
cleaner to clean the glass on the outside
of the door.
Spillage of marinades, fruit juices, tomato
sauces and basting materials containing
acids may cause discoloration and should
be wiped up immediately. When the
surface is cool, clean and rinse.
Do not use oven cleaners, cleansing
powders or harsh abrasives on the
outside of the door.
Oven Bottom
The oven bottom has a porcelain enamel
finish. To make cleaning easier, protect
the oven bottom from excessive spillovers
by placing a cookie sheet on the shelf
below the shelf you are cooking on. This is
particularly important when baking a fruit
pie or other foods with a high acid content.
Hot fruit fillings or other foods that are
highly acidic (such as tomatoes, sauerkraut
and sauces with vinegar or lemon juice)
may cause pitting and damage to the
porcelain enamel surface and should be
wiped up immediately.
We dont recommend using aluminum foil
on the oven bottom. It can affect air flow if
the holes are blocked and it can concentrate
heat at the bottom of the oven, resulting in
poor baking performance.
To clean up spillovers, use soap and water,
an abrasive cleaner or soap-filled steel-wool
pad. Rinse well to remove any soap.
Broiler Pan and Grid
After broiling, remove the broiler pan from
the oven. Remove the grid from the pan.
Carefully pour out grease from the pan
into a proper container. Wash and rinse
the broiler pan and grid in hot water
with a soap-filled or plastic scouring pad.
If food has burned on, sprinkle the grid
with detergent while hot and cover with
wet paper towels or a dishcloth. Soaking
the pan will remove burned-on foods.
The broiler pan and grid may be cleaned
with a commercial oven cleaner.
Both the broiler pan and grid can also be
cleaned in a dishwasher.
Do not store a soiled broiler pan and grid
anywhere in the range.
CAUTION: Do not clean the broiler
pan or grid in a self-cleaning oven.
Lift the door straight up and off
the hinges.
The gasket is designed with a gap
at the bottom to allow for proper
air circulation.
Do not rub or clean the door gasket—
it has an extremely low resistance
to abrasion.
If you notice the gasket becoming
worn, frayed or damaged in any way
or if it has become displaced on the
door, you should have it replaced.

Broiler Compartment (on some models)
When the broiler compartment is cool,
remove the grid and pan. Clean the broiler
compartment with hot soapy water. Rinse
thoroughly with a damp cloth and dry.
Removable Kick Panel (on some models)
The kick panel may be removed for
cleaning under the range.
To remove:
Lift up the bottom of the panel slightly to
disengage the panel from the tabs at the
base of the range. Pull the bottom of the
panel forward until the spring clips are
released at the top of the panel.
To replace:
Insert the two slots at the bottom of the
panel onto the two tabs at the base of the
range, and push the top of the panel
forward to engage the spring clips.
Oven Shelves
Clean the shelves with an abrasive cleanser
or scouring pad. After cleaning, rinse the
shelves with clean water and dry with a
clean cloth.
Oven Light Replacement
CAUTION: Before replacing your
oven light bulb, disconnect the electrical power to
the range at the main fuse or circuit breaker panel.
Do not touch a hot light bulb with wet hands or a
wet cloth. Be sure to let the bulb cool completely
and use a dry cloth.
The light bulb is located in the upper left
corner (may vary) of the oven. Replace the
bulb with a 40-watt appliance bulb only.

Oven Air Vents
Never block the vents (air openings) of the
range. They provide the air inlet and outlet
that are necessary for the range to operate
properly with correct combustion.
Air openings are located at the rear of
the cooktop, at the top and bottom of the
oven door, and at the bottom of the range,
under kick panel or broiler compartment
(depending on the model).
Lower Control Panel (Front Manifold Panel) and Knobs
It’s a good idea to wipe the control panel
after each use of the oven. Use a damp
cloth to clean or rinse. For cleaning, use
mild soap and water or a 50/50 solution of
vinegar and water. For rinsing, use clean
water. Polish dry with a soft cloth.
Do not use abrasive cleansers, strong liquid
cleaners, plastic scouring pads or oven
cleaners on the control panel—they will
damage the finish.
Do not bend knobs by pulling them up or
down or by hanging a towel or other such
loads. This can damage the gas valve shaft.
The control knobs may be removed for
easier cleaning.
Make sure the knobs are in the OFF
positions and pull them straight off the
stems for cleaning.
The knobs can be cleaned in a dishwasher
or they may also be washed with soap and
water. Make sure the insides of the knobs are
dry before replacing.
Replace the knobs in the OFF position
to ensure proper placement.
Metal parts can be cleaned with soap and
water. Do not use steel wool, abrasives,
ammonia, acids or commercial oven
cleaners. Dry with a soft cloth.
Vent appearance and location vary.
Pull the knob straight off the stem.
Porcelain Oven Interior
With proper care, the porcelain enamel
interior will retain its attractive finish for
many years.
Soap and water will normally do the job.
Heavy spattering or spillovers may require
cleaning with a mild abrasive cleanser.
Soap-filled scouring pads may also be used.
Do not allow food spills with a high sugar or
acid content (such as tomatoes, sauerkraut,
fruit juices or pie filling) to remain on the
surface. They may cause dull spots even
after cleaning.
Household ammonia may make the
cleaning job easier. Place 1/2 cup ammonia
in a shallow glass pan and leave in a cold
oven overnight. The ammonia fumes will
help loosen the burned-on grease and food.
When necessary, you may use a commercial
oven cleaner. Follow the package directions.
Cautions about using spray-on oven
cleaners:
Be careful where the oven cleaner is sprayed.
Do not spray oven cleaner on the electrical
controls and switches (on some models) because
it could cause a short circuit and result in sparking
or fire.
Do not allow a film from the cleaner to remain on
the temperature sensing bulb—it could cause the
oven to heat improperly. (The bulb is located at
the rear of the oven.) Carefully wipe the bulb
clean after each oven cleaning, being careful not
to move the bulb as a change in its position could
affect how the oven bakes.
Do not spray any oven cleaner on the outside
oven door, handles or any exterior surface of the
oven, cabinet or painted surfaces. The cleaner can
damage these surfaces.

stored in the oven can ignite.
Do not let cooking grease or other flammable
materials accumulate in or near the range.
LOCATION
Do not locate the range where it may be
subject to strong drafts. Any openings in the
floor or wall behind the range should be sealed.
Make sure the openings around the base of the
range that supply fresh air for combustion and
ventilation are not obstructed by carpeting or
woodwork.
Your range, like many other household items,
is heavy and can settle into soft floor coverings
such as cushioned vinyl or carpeting. Use care
when moving the range on this type of flooring.
It is recommended that the following simple
and inexpensive instructions be followed to
protect your floor.
The range should be installed on a sheet of
plywood (or similar material). When the floor
covering ends at the front of the range, the area
that the range will rest on should be built up
with plywood to the same level or higher than
the floor covering.
This will allow the range to be moved for
cleaning or servicing. Also, make sure your
floor covering will withstand 180°F. (See the
Installation Safety Instructions section.)
Make sure the wall coverings around your
range can withstand the heat generated (up to
200°F) by the range. (See the Installation Safety
Instructions section.)
IMPORTANT!
Remove all tape and packaging.
Take the accessory pack out of the oven.
Check to be sure that no range parts have
come loose during shipping.

Installation Instructions
PROVIDE ADEQUATE
GAS SUPPLY
Your range is designed to operate at a pressure
of 4of water column on natural gas or, if
designed for LP gas (propane or butane),
10of water column.
Make sure you are supplying your range with
the type of gas for which it is designed.
This range is convertible for use on natural or
propane gas. If you decide to use this range on
LP gas, conversion must be made by a qualified
LP installer before attempting to operate the
range on that gas.
For proper operation, the pressure of natural
gas supplied to the regulator must be between
4″ ″and 13 of water column.
For LP gas, the pressure supplied must be
between 10 and 13 of water column.
When checking for proper operation of the
regulator, the inlet pressure must be at least 1
greater than the operating (manifold) pressure
as given above.
The pressure regulator located at the inlet of the
range manifold must remain in the supply line
regardless of whether natural or LP gas is being
used.
A flexible metal appliance connector used to
connect the range to the gas supply line should
have an I.D. of 1/2and be 5 feet in length for
ease of installation.
1CONNECT THE RANGE TO GAS
Shut off the main gas supply valve before
disconnecting the old range and leave it off
until the new hookup has been completed.
Don’t forget to relight the pilot on other gas
appliances when you turn the gas back on.
Because hard piping restricts movement of the
range, the use of a CSA International-certified
flexible metal appliance connector is
recommended unless local codes
require a hard-piped connection.
Never use an old connector when installing a
new range. If the hard piping method is used,
you must carefully align the pipe; the range
cannot be moved after the connection is made.
To prevent gas leaks, put pipe joint compound
on, or wrap pipe thread tape with Teflon*
around, all male (external) pipe threads.
Install a manual gas line shut-off valve in
the gas line in an easily accessed location
outside of the range. Make sure everyone
operating the range knows where and how
to shut off the gas supply to the range.
Install male 1/2flare union adapter to the
1/2NPT internal thread at inlet of regulator.
Use a backup wrench on the regulator
fitting to avoid damage.
Install male 1/2 or 3/4 flare union adapter
to the NPT internal thread of the manual
shut-off valve, taking care to back-up the
shut-off valve to keep it from turning.
Connect flexible metal appliance connector
to the adapter on the range. Position range
to permit connection at the shut-off valve.
When all connections have been made,
make sure all range controls are in the off
position and turn on the main gas supply
valve. Use a liquid leak detector at all joints
and connections to check for leaks in the
system.
When using test pressures greater than 1/2 psig
to pressure test the gas supply system of the
residence, disconnect the range and individual
shut-off valve from the gas supply piping. When
using test pressures of 1/2 psig or less to test
the gas supply system, simply isolate the range
from the gas supply system by closing the
individual shut-off valve.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
Electrical Requirements
120-volt, 60 Hertz, properly grounded branch circuit
protected by a 15-amp or 20-amp circuit breaker or
time delay fuse.
Extension Cord Cautions
Because of potential safety hazards associated with
certain conditions, we strongly recommend against
the use of an extension cord. However, if you still
elect to use an extension cord, it is absolutely
necessary that it be a UL-listed, 3-wire grounding-
type appliance extension cord and that the current
carrying rating of the cord in amperes be equivalent
to, or greater than, the branch circuit rating.
Grounding
IMPORTANT—(Please read carefully)
FOR PERSONAL SAFETY, THIS APPLIANCE MUST
BE PROPERLY GROUNDED.
The power cord of this appliance is equipped
with a 3-prong (grounding) plug which mates with a
standard three-prong grounding wall receptacle to
minimize the possibility of electric shock hazard from
this appliance.
The customer should have the wall receptacle and
circuit checked by a qualified electrician to make sure
the receptacle is properly grounded.
Where a standard two-prong wall receptacle is
encountered, it is the personal responsibility and
obligation of the customer to have it replaced with a
properly grounded three-prong wall receptacle.
DO NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, CUT OR
REMOVE THE THIRD (GROUND) PRONG FROM THE
POWER CORD.
A word about GFCI’s – GFCI’s are not required or
recommended for gas range receptacles.
Ground Fault Circuit Interrupters (GFCIs) are
devices that sense leakage of current in a circuit and
automatically switch off power when a threshold
leakage level is detected. These devices must be
manually reset by the consumer. The National
Electrical Code requires the use of GFCIs in kitchen
receptacles installed to serve countertop surfaces.
Performance of the range will not be affected if
operated on a GFCI-protected circuit but occasional
nuisance tripping of the GFCI breaker is possible.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS (CONT.)
Usage Situations where Appliance Power
Cord will be Disconnected Infrequently.
An adapter may be used only on a 15-amp
circuit. Do not use an adapter on a 20-amp
circuit. Where local codes permit, a
TEMPORARY CONNECTION may be made to a
properly grounded two-prong wall receptacle
by the use of a UL-listed adapter, available at
most hardware stores. The larger slot in the
adapter must be aligned with the larger slot in
the wall receptacle to provide proper polarity in
the connection of the power cord.
When disconnecting the power cord from the
adapter, always hold the adapter with one hand.
If this is not done, the adapter ground terminal
is very likely to break with repeated use. Should
this happen, the appliance until aDO NOT USE
proper ground has again been established.

screw does not ground the appliance unless
the cover screw is metal, and not insulated,
and the wall receptacle is grounded through
the house wiring. The customer should have
the circuit checked by a qualified electrician to
make sure the receptacle is properly grounded.
ASSEMBLE SURFACE BURNERS
Assemble the side burners as shown.
Assemble the center burner. Make sure that
the locking feet on the center grate hook
over the side grates.
CAUTION: Do not operate the burner
without all burner parts in place.
Place the burner heads and caps on the
cooktop. Make sure that the heads and caps
are placed in the correct locations. There is
one oval (center) head and cap assembly
and four medium (side) heads and caps.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS (CONT.)
Usage Situations where Appliance Power
Cord will be Disconnected Frequently.
Do not use an adapter plug in these situations
because disconnecting of the power cord places
undue strain on the adapter and leads to
eventual failure of the adapter ground terminal.
The customer should have the 2-prong wall
receptacle replaced with a three-prong
(grounding) receptacle by a qualified electrician
before using the appliance.
The installation of appliances designed for
mobile home installation must conform with
the Manufactured Home Construction and
Safety Standard, Title 24 CFR, Part 3280
(formerly the Federal Standard for Mobile
Home Construction and Safety, Title 24, HUD,
Part 280) or, when such standard is not

CHECK IGNITION OF SURFACE
BURNERS
Operation of all cooktop and oven burners
should be checked after the range and gas
supply lines have been carefully checked for
leaks.
Electric Ignition Models
Select a top burner knob and simultaneously
push in and turn to LITE position. You will hear
a clicking sound indicating proper operation of
the spark module. Once the air has been purged
from the supply lines, burners should light
within 4 seconds. After burner lights, rotate
knob out of the LITE position. Try each burner
in succession until all burners have been
checked.
Quality of Flames
The combustion quality of burner flames needs
to be determined visually.
If burner flames look like (A), call for service.
Normal burner flames should look like (B) or
(C), depending on the type of gas you use.
With LP gas, some yellow tipping on outer
cones is normal.

CHECK IGNITION OF OVEN BURNER
The oven is designed to operate quietly and
automatically. To operate the oven, turn the
OVEN CONTROL knob to a setting above 200°F.
After 30–90 seconds, the oven burner will ignite
and burn until the set temperature is reached.
The oven burner will continue to cycle on and
off as necessary to maintain the oven at the
temperature indicated by the OVEN CONTROL
knob.
Electric ignition models require electrical power
to operate. In case of a power outage, the oven
burners on these models cannot be lit manually
with a match. Gas will not flow unless the glow
bar is hot.
If the oven is in use when a power outage
occurs, the burner will shut off and cannot be
re-lit until power is restored.

LEVELING THE RANGE
Install the oven shelves in the oven and position
the range where it will be installed.
Check for levelness by placing a spirit level or
a cup, partially filled with water, on one of the
oven shelves. If using a spirit level, take two
readingswith the level placed diagonally
first in one direction and then the other.
Remove the kick panel or open the broiler
compartment. See the Care and cleaning of the
range section. The front leveling legs can be
adjusted from the bottom and the rear legs can
be adjusted from the top or the bottom.
Use an open-end or adjustable wrench to adjust
the leveling legs until the range is level.
After the range is level, slide the range away
from the wall so that the Anti-Tip device can be
installed.

To determine if the oven/broiler burner flames
are burning properly, first remove the oven
bottom.
To remove the oven bottom:
Remove knurled screws holding down
rear of oven bottom.
Grasp oven bottom at finger slots on each
side.
Lift rear of oven bottom enough to clear
the lip of range frame, then pull out.
With the oven bottom removed,
properly adjusted flames should have
approximately 1blue cones and, if range
is supplied with natural gas, should burn
with no yellow tipping. (With most LP gas,
small yellow tips at the end of outer cones
are normal.) Flames should not lift off
burner ports. If lifting is observed,
gradually reduce air shutter opening until
flames are stabilized.
The shutter for the oven burner is near the
