Children should be taught that an appliance is not a toy. Children should not
be allowed to play with controls or other parts of the appliance.
Cooking Safety
•
NEVER leave any items on the rangetop. The hot air from the vent may ignite
flammable items and may increase pressure in closed containers which may
cause them to burst.
• To eliminate the hazard of reaching over hot surface burners, cabinet storage
should not be provided directly above a unit. If storage is provided, it should
be limited to items which are used infrequently and which are safely stored
in an area subjected to heat from an appliance. Temperatures may be unsafe
for some items, such as volatile liquids, cleaners or
• Many aerosol-type spray cans are EXPLOSIVE when exposed to heat and
may be highly flammable. Avoid their use or storage near an appliance.
• Many plastics are vulnerable to heat. Keep plastics away from parts of the
appliance that may become warm or hot. DO NOT leave plastic items on
the rangetop as they may melt or soften if left too close to the vent or a
lighted surface burner.
• Combustible items (paper, plastic, etc.) may ignite and metallic items
may become hot and cause burns. DO NOT pour spirits over hot foods.
DO NOT leave oven unsupervised when drying herbs, breads, mushrooms,
etc; fire hazard.
aerosol sprays.
•
ALWAYS place a pan on a surface burner before turning it on. Be sure
you know which knob controls which surface burner. Make sure the correct
burner is turned on and that the burner has ignited. When cooking is
completed, turn burner off before removing pan to prevent exposure to
burner flame.
•
ALWAYS adjust surface burner flame so that it does not extend beyond the
bottom edge of the pan. An excessive flame is hazardous, wastes energy
and may damage the appliance, pan or cabinets above the appliance.
This is based on safety considerations.
In Case of Fire
Turn off appliance and ventilating hood to avoid spreading the flame. Extinguish
flame then turn on hood to remove smoke and odor.
• Cooktop: Smother fire or flame in a pan with a lid or cookie sheet.
• NEVER pick up or move a flaming pan.
• NEVER leave a surface cooking operation unattended especially when using
a high heat setting or when deep fat frying. Boilovers cause smoking and
greasy spillovers may ignite. Clean up greasy spills as soon as possible.
DO NOT use high heat for extended cooking operations.
• Oven: Smother fire or flame by closing the oven door. DO NOT use water
on grease fires. Use baking soda, a dry chemical or foam-type extinguisher to
smother fire or flame.
• GREASE–Grease is flammable and should be handled carefully. DO NOT
use water on grease fires. Flaming grease can be extinguished with
baking soda or, if available, a multipurpose dry chemical or foam type
extinguisher. Let fat cool before attempting to handle it. DO NOT allow
grease to collect around the oven or in vents. Wipe up spillovers
immediately.
• DO NOT heat unopened food containers, build up of pressure may cause
the container to explode and result in injury.
• Use dry, sturdy pot-holders. Damp pot-holders may cause burns from steam.
Dishtowels or other substitutes should NEVER be used as potholders
because they can trail across hot surface burners and ignite or get caught on
appliance parts.
•
ALWAYS let quantities of hot fat used for deep fat frying cool before
attempting to move or handle.
• DO NOT let cooking grease or other flammable materials accumulate in or
near the appliance, hood or vent fan. Clean hood frequently to prevent
grease from accumulating on hood or filter. When flaming foods under the
hood, turn the fan off.

• If you are “flaming” liquor or other spirits under an exhaust, TURN THE
FAN OFF. The draft could cause the flames to spread out of control.
• Once the unit has been installed as outlined in the Installation
Instructions, it is important that the fresh air supply is not obstructed.
The use of a gas cooking appliance results in the production of heat and
moisture in the room in which it is installed. Ensure that the kitchen is
well-ventilated. Keep natural venting holes open or install a mechanical
ventilation device. Prolonged or intensive use of the appliance may call
for additional (such as opening a window) or more effective ventilation
(such as increasing the level of a mechanical ventilation if present).
Heating Elements
• NEVER touch oven bake and broil burner areas or interior surfaces of oven.
• Bake and broil burners may be hot even though they are dark in color. Areas
near burners and interior surfaces of an oven may become hot enough to
cause burns.
•
During and after use, DO NOT touch or let clothing or other flammable
materials contact heating elements, areas near elements, or interior surfaces
of oven until they have had sufficient time to cool. Other surfaces of the
oven may become hot enough to cause burns, such as the oven vent
opening, the surface near the vent opening, and the oven door window.
Utensil Safety
• Use pans with flat bottoms and handles that are easily grasped and stay
cool. Avoid using unstable, warped, easily tipped or loose-handled pans.
Also avoid using pans, especially small pans, with heavy handles as they
could be unstable and easily tip. Pans that are heavy to move when filled
with food may also be hazardous.
Cleaning Safety
• Turn off all controls and wait for appliance parts to cool before touching or
cleaning them. DO NOT touch the burner grates or surrounding areas until
they have had sufficient time to cool.
• Be sure utensil is large enough to properly contain food and avoid boilovers.
Pan size is particularly important in deep fat frying. Be sure pan will
accommodate the volume of food that is to be added as well as the bubble
action of fat.
• Clean appliance with caution. Use care to avoid steam burns if a wet sponge
or cloth is used to wipe spills on a hot surface. Some cleaners can produce
noxious fumes if applied to a hot surface.
•
DO NOT clean door gasket. It is essential for a good tight seal. Care
• To minimize burns, ignition of flammable materials and spillage due to
unintentional contact with the utensil, DO NOT extend handles over
adjacent surface burners. ALWAYS turn pan handles toward the side or back
of the appliance, not out into the room where they are easily hit or reached
by small children.

About Your Appliance
WARNING
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.
WARNING
NEVER use appliance as a space heater to heat or warm a room to prevent
potential hazard to the user and damage to the appliance. Also, DO NOT
use the rangetop or oven as a storage area for food or cooking utensils.
• For proper oven performance and operation, DO NOT block or obstruct the
oven vent duct located on the right side of the air grille.
• Avoid touching oven vent area while oven is on and for several minutes after
oven is turned off. When the oven is in use, the vent and surrounding area
become hot enough to cause burns. After oven is turned off, DO NOT touch
the oven vent or surrounding areas until they have had sufficient time to
cool.
WARNING
ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD
Disconnect the electric power at the main fuse or circuit
breaker before replacing bulb.
• Other potentially hot surfaces include rangetop, areas facing the rangetop,
oven vent, surfaces near the vent opening, oven door, areas around the oven
door and oven window.
• The misuse of oven doors (e.g. stepping, sitting, or leaning on them) can
result in potential hazards and/or injuries.
WARNING
BURN OR ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD
Make sure all controls are OFF and oven is COOL before
cleaning. Failure to do so can result in burns or electrical
shock.
Power Failure
If power failure occurs, the electric igniters will not work. No attempt should be
made to operate the appliance during a power failure. Make sure the oven
control is in the “OFF” position.
CAUTION
Momentary power failure can occur unnoticed. The range is affected only when
the power is interrupted. When it comes back on, the range will function
properly without any adjustments. A “brown-out” may or may not affect range
operation, depending on how severe the power loss is.
To avoid sickness and food waste, DO NOT allow defrosted food to
remain in the oven for more than two hours.
NOTICE
DO NOT turn the Temperature Control on during defrosting. Turning
the convection fan on will accelerate the natural defrosting of the food
without the heat.
WARNING
ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD
DO NOT touch a hot oven light bulb with a damp cloth as the
bulb could break. Should the bulb break, disconnect power
to the appliance before removing bulb to avoid electrical shock.

Surface Cooking Tips
All burners are ignited by electric ignition. There
are no open-flame, “standing” pilots.
• Use low or medium flame heights when cooking in vessels that are
poor conductors of heat, such as glass, ceramic, and cast-iron.
Reduce the flame height until it covers approximately 1/3 of the
cooking vessel diameter. This will ensure more even heating within
the cooking vessel and reduce the likelihood of burning or
scorching the food.
• Reduce the flame if it is extending beyond the bottom of the
cooking vessel. A flame that extends along the sides of the vessel is
potentially dangerous, heats the utensil handle and kitchen instead
of the food, and wastes energy.
• Reduce the flame height to the minimum level necessary to perform
the desired cooking process. Remember that food cooks just as
quickly at a gentle boil as it does at a rolling boil. Maintaining a
higher boil than is necessary wastes energy, cooks away moisture,
and causes a loss in food flavor and nutrient level.
• The minimum pot or pan (vessel) diameter recommended is 6”
(15 cm) on the larger burners. Pots or pans as small as 4” (10 cm)
should be used on the smaller burners.
Surface Burners-Automatic Reignition
To light the surface burners, push and turn the
appropriate control knob counter clockwise to any
position. This control is both a gas valve and an electric switch. Burners
will ignite at any “ON” position with the automatic re-ignition system. If
the flame goes out for any reason, the burners will automatically reignite
if the gas is still flowing. When gas is permitted to flow to the burners,
the electric igniters start sparking. On all surface igniters you should hear
a “clicking” sound. If you do not, turn off the control and check that the
unit is plugged in and that the fuse or circuit breaker is not blown or
tripped.
Within a few moments, enough gas will have traveled to the burner to
light. When the burner lights, turn the burner control to any position to
adjust the flame size. Setting the proper flame height for the desired
cooking process and selecting the correct cooking vessel will result in
superior cooking performance, while also saving time and energy.

Using the Oven
Baking
Conventional and Convection Cooking
BAKE
(Natural Airflow Bake)
Because of variations in food density, surface texture and consistency,
some foods may be prepared more successfully using the conventional
bake setting. For this reason, conventional baking is recommended
when preparing baked goods such as custard. The user may find other
foods that are also prepared more consistently in conventional bake. It
is recommended to use this function for single-rack baking.
Full power heat is radiated from
the U-shaped bake burners in
the bottom of the oven cavity
and is circulated with natural
airflow. This function is
recommended for single rack
baking. Many cookbooks contain
recipes to be cooked in the
conventional manner.
Conventional baking is suitable for dishes that require a high
temperature. Use this setting for baking and casseroles.
Convection Cooking Tips
Convection cooking is a cooking technique which utilizes fan-forced
air to circulate throughout the entire oven cavity creating the optimum
cooking environment. Cooking with convection is intended when
performing multi-rack baking and for heavier foods. Below are some
tips which will allow you to get the best results out of your oven when
cooking with convection.
natural airflow bake
To Use BAKE Function
1. Arrange the oven rack in the desired position before turning
oven on.
• As a general rule, to convert conventional recipes to convection
recipes, reduce the temperature by 25°F (10°C) when using a
convection cooking function.
• Cooking times for standard baking and convection baking will be the
same. However, if using convection to cook a single item or smaller
load, then it is possible to have 10-15% reduction in cooking time.
(Remember convection cooking is designed for multi-rack baking or
cooking large loads.)
2. Set the oven temperature control knob to desired temperature.
3. Close the door.
CONVECTION BAKE
Heat is radiated from the U-
shaped bake burners in the
bottom of the oven cavity. The
heated air is circulated by one
motorized fan in the rear of the
oven providing a more even
heat distribution. Multiple rack
use is possible for the largest
baking job. When roasting,
• If cooking items which require longer than 45 minutes, then it is
possible to see a 10-15% reduction in cooking time.
• A major benefit of convection cooking is the ability to prepare foods
in quantity. The uniform air circulation makes this possible. Foods
that can be prepared on two of three racks at the same time
include: pizza, cakes, cookies, biscuits, muffins, rolls, and frozen
convenience foods.
• For three-rack baking, use any combination of rack positions 2, 3, 4,
and 5. For two-rack baking, use rack positions 2 and 4 or positions 3
and 5. Remember that the racks are numbered from bottom to top.

and retaining more juices and
natural flavor on the inside with less shrinkage. This even circulation of
air equalizes the temperature throughout the oven cavity and
eliminates the hot and cold spots found in conventional ovens.

• DO NOT open the door frequently during baking. Look through the
door window to check doneness whenever possible. If you must open
the door, the best time is during the last quarter of the baking time.
• Bake to the shortest time suggested and check for doneness before
adding more time. For baked goods, a stainless steel knife placed in
the center of the product should come out clean when done.
• Use the pan size and type recommended by the recipe to ensure
best results. Cakes, quick breads, muffins, and cookies should be
baked in shiny, reflective pans for light, golden crusts. Avoid the use
of old, darkened pans. Warped, dented, stainless steel and tin-coated
pans heat unevenly and will not give uniform baking results.

Broiling
Broiling
BROIL (Infrared Broil)
The broil burner at the top of
the oven heats the metal screen
until it glows. Heat radiates
from the GourmetGlo™ infrared
broiler located at the top of the
oven cavity. The distance
between the foods and the broil
elements determines broiling
speed. For “fast” broiling, food
Broiling Instructions
Broiling is a dry-heat cooking method using direct or radiant heat.
It is used for small, individualized cuts such as steaks, chops, and
patties. Broiling speed is determined by the distance between the
food and the broil element. Choose the rack position based on
desired results.
Conventional broiling is most successful for cuts of meat 1-2 inches
thick and is also more suitable for flat pieces of meat. Convection
broiling has the advantage of broiling food slightly quicker than
conventional. Convection broiling of meats produces better results,
especially for thick cuts. The meat sears on the outside and retains
more juices and natural flavor inside with less shrinkage.
infrared broil
may be as close as 2 inches (5 cm) to the broil element or on the top
rack. “Fast” broiling is best for meats where rare to medium doneness
is desired. Use this setting for broiling small and average cuts of meat.
To Use Broil or Convection Broil
1. Arrange the oven rack in the desired position before turning
broiler on.
CONVECTION BROIL
(Infrared Convection Broil)
The top burner operates at full
power. This function is exactly
the same as regular broiling
with the additional benefit of air
circulation by the motorized fan
in the rear of the oven. Smoke
is reduced since the airflow also

oven. Place broiler pan in oven.
3. Set the oven temperature control knob to “Broil”. Turn on the
convection fan if you wish to convection broil.
reduces peak temperatures on
the food. Use this setting for
broiling thick cuts of meats.
4. Close the door. There is not a detent to hold the door in the open
broil stop position. With open door broiling the broil element does
not cycle on and off. With closed door broiling the broil element
might cycle on and off if an extended broiling time is required. A
built-in smoke "eliminator" in the top of the oven helps reduce
smoke and odors.

Broiling Tips
• ALWAYS use a broiler pan and grid for broiling. They are designed
to provide drainage of excess liquid and fat away from the cooking
surface to help prevent splatter, smoke, and fire.

• To keep meat from curling, slit fatty edge.
• Brush chicken and fish with butter several times as they broil to
prevent drying out. To prevent sticking, lightly grease broiler tray.
• Broil on first side for slightly more than half the recommended time,
season, and turn. Season second side just before removing.
• ALWAYS pull rack out to stop position before turning or removing
food.

• Remove the broiler pan from the oven when you remove the food.
Drippings will bake onto the pan if it is left in the heated oven after
broiling. While pan is hot, place damp paper towel over grid. Drizzle
with liquid dishwashing detergent and pour water over grid. This will
make cleaning of the pan easier, or the broiler pan can be lined with
aluminum foil to make cleaning easier. Be sure the foil extends up
the side of the pan. Although it is not recommended, the grid can
also be covered with foil. Be sure to slit openings to conform with
the openings in the grid so melted fat can drain through to prevent
spattering, smoking, or the possibility of grease fire.

Convection Dehydrate
Convection Defrost
Convection Dehydrate
Convection Defrost
This oven is designed not only to cook, but also to dehydrate fruits
and vegetables. Warm air is circulated by a motorized fan in the rear
of the oven and over a period of time, the water is removed from
the food by evaporation. Removal of water inhibits growth of
microorganisms and retards the activity of enzymes. It is important to
remember that dehydration does not improve the quality, so only
fresh, top-quality foods should be used.
Air is circulated by a motorized fan in the rear of the oven. The fan
accelerates natural defrosting of the food without heat. To avoid
sickness and food waste, DO NOT allow defrosted food to remain in
the oven for more than two hours.
1. Place the frozen food on a baking sheet.
1. Prepare the food as recommended.
2. Set the oven temperature control knob to “OFF” and turn on the
convection fan.
2. Arrange the food on drying racks (not included with the oven;
contact a local store handling speciality cooking utensils).
WARNING
3. Set the temperature control to 200°F (93.3°C) and turn on the
convection fan.
To avoid sickness and food waste, DO NOT allow defrosted food to
remain in the oven for more than two hours.
CAUTION
You must carefully check the food during the dehydration process to
ensure that it does not catch fire.

Burner Head
Control Knobs
If ports on burner head are clogged, clean with a straight pin. DO
NOT enlarge or distort the ports. DO NOT use a toothpick to clean
the ports. When replacing burner head, carefully align the 2 tabs
underneath the burner head with the outside edge of burner base.
Make sure the tabs are not aligned with the igniter and the burner cap
is level.
MAKE SURE ALL THE CONTROL KNOBS POINT TO THE OFF
POSITION BEFORE REMOVING. Pull the knobs straight off. Wash in
detergent and warm water. Dry completely and replace by pushing
firmly onto stem. DO NOT use any cleaners containing ammonia or
abrasives. They could remove the graphics from the knob.
Stainless Steel Parts
Note: For stubborn stains, use a non abrasive cleanser such as Bon
Ami™ and a soft brush or soft Scotch Brite™ pad.
All stainless steel body parts should be wiped regularly with hot soapy
water at the end of each cooling period and with a liquid cleaner
designed for that material when soapy water will not do the job. DO NOT
use steel wool, abrasive cloths, cleansers, or powders. If necessary, scrape
stainless steel to remove encrusted materials, soak the area with hot
towels to loosen the material, then use a wooden or nylon spatula or
scraper. DO NOT use a metal knife, spatula, or any other metal tool to
scrape stainless steel. DO NOT permit citrus or tomato juice to remain on
stainless steel surface, as citric acid will permanently discolor stainless
steel. Wipe up any spills immediately.
Cleaning Tip: For difficult to clean burner caps and heads, place parts
in a zip seal bag with ammonia.
Burner Base
The base should be wiped regularly with hot soapy water at the end of
each cooling period. DO NOT use steel wool, abrasive cloths, cleanser,
or powders. To remove encrusted materials, soak the area with a hot
towel to loosen the material, then use a wooden nylon spatula.
DO NOT use a metal knife, spatula, or any other metal tool to scrape
the aluminum base.
Glass Surfaces
