The weight of a child on an open over door may cause the range to tip, resulting in serious burns or other injury.

Wear proper apparel. Loose- fitting or hanging garments should never be worn while using this appliance. Do not let clothing or other flammable materials come into contact with hot surfaces.

climbing on the range to reach items could be seriously injured.

Important: 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 cause cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive harms, and it requires busi- nesses to warn customers of potential exposures to such substances.

???Placement of Oven Racks - Always place oven racks in desired location while oven is cool. If rack must be moved while oven in hot, use extreme caution and do not let potholder contact hot heating element in oven. Use potholders and grasp the rack with both hands to reposition. Remove all bakeware and utensils before moving the rack.

???Do not use a broiler pan without its insert. Broiler pans and inserts allow dripping fat to drain away from the high heat of the broiler. Do not cover the broiler insert with aluminum foil; exposed fat and grease could ignite.

???Protective Liners - Do not use aluminum foil to line oven bottoms, except as suggested in the manual. Improper instal- lation of these liners may result in a risk of electric shock, or fire.

IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING YOUR

COOKTOP

Use Proper Flame Size ??? Adjust flame size so it does not extend beyond the edge of the utensil. The use of undersized utensils will expose a portion of the burner flame to direct contact and may result in ignition of clothing. Proper relationship of utensil to flame will also improve efficiency.

???Know which knob controls each surface heating unit. Place a pan of food on the surface element unit before turning it on, and turn the element off before removing the pan.

???When flaming foods under a ventilating hood, turn the fan on.

???Use proper pan size ??? This appliance is equipped with one or more surface units of different sizes. Select utensils having flat bottoms large enough to cover the surface unit heating element. The use of undersized utensils will expose a portion

of the heating element to direct contact and may result in ignition of clothing. Proper relationship of utensil to element will also improve efficiency.

???Utensil handles should be turned inward and not extend over adjacent surface elements ??? To reduce the risk of burns, ignition of flammable materials, and spillage due to unintentional contact with the utensil, the handle of the utensil should be positioned so that it is turned inward, and does not extend over adjacent surface units.

???Never leave surface elements unattended at high heat settings ??? Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite, or a pan that has boiled dry may melt.

???Glazed cooking utensils ??? Only certain types of glass, glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed utensils are suitable for cook top service without breaking due to the sudden change in temperature. Check the manufacturer???s recommendations for cook top use.

???Improper cookware may break due to sudden changes in temperature. Check the cookware manufacturer???s recommen- dations for cooktop use.

???Do not use decorative surface burner covers. If an element is accidentally turned on, the decorative over will become hot and possibly melt. Burns will occur if the hot covers are touched. Damage may also be done to the cooktop.

???Always turn knob to the full LITE position when igniting top burners. Visually check that burner has lit. Then adjust the flame so it does not extend beyond the edge of the utensil.

IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR CLEANING YOUR

RANGE

Before manually cleaning any part of the range, be sure all controls are turned off and the range is cool. The range may be hot and can cause burns.

???Clean the range regularly to keep all parts free of grease that could catch fire. Pay particular attention to the area around each surface element. Do not allow grease to accumulate.

???Always follow the manufacturer???s recom- mended directions for use of kitchen cleaners and aerosols. Be aware that excess residue from cleaners and aerosols may ignite causing damage and injury.

???Clean ventilating hoods frequently. Grease should not be allowed to accumu- late on the hood or filter. Follow the manufacturer???s instructions for cleaning hoods.

IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR CLEANING YOUR

SELF-CLEANING OVENS

???Clean only the parts listed in this manual. Before using self-clean, remove the broiler pan, any food, utensils, and bakeware from the oven. Remove oven racks unless otherwise instructed.

???Do Not Use Oven Cleaners. No commer- cial oven cleaner or oven liner protective coating of any kind should be used in or around any part of the oven.

???Do Not Clean Door Gasket. The door gasket is essential for a good seal. Care should be taken not to rub, damage, or move the gasket.

???Some birds are extremely sensitive to the fumes given off during the self-clean cycle of any oven. Move birds to another well-ventilated room.

DO NOT TOUCH SURFACE

HEATING UNITS, OR SURFACE COOKING

Figure 3: Do not block oven vent location

Do not line the oven walls, racks, bottom or any other part of the range with aluminum foil. Doing so will destroy heat distribution, produce poor baking results and cause permanent damage to the oven interior. Aluminum foil will melt to the interior of the oven.

Always use pot holders or oven mitts when using the oven. When cooking, the oven interior and exterior, as well as the oven racks, will become very hot which can cause burns.

Removing, replacing, and arranging flat or offset oven racks

To Arrange - Always arrange the oven racks when the oven is cool (prior to operating the oven).

To Remove - Pull the oven rack straight forward until it reaches the stop position. Lift up front of oven rack slightly and slide out.

To Replace - Place the oven rack on the rack guides on both sides of oven walls. Tilt the front of oven rack upward slightly and slide the oven rack back into place. Be sure oven racks are level before using.

Figure 4: Oven rack types

Oven Rack Descriptions

???Flat oven racks (or the flat handle oven rack) may be used for most cooking needs and may be placed in most oven rack positions.

???The offset oven rack (some models) provides additional stepdown positions from the standard flat rack design. The offset design positions the base of the rack about 1/2 of a rack position lower than the flat rack and may be used in most oven rack positions.

???To maximize oven cooking space, place the bottom oven rack (some models) in the lowest rack position for baking or roasting large cuts of meat.

Air Circulation in the Oven

For best baking results allow 2-4" (5-10 cm) around the cookware for proper air circulation and be sure pans and cookware do not touch each other, the oven door, sides or back of the oven cavity. Hot air must be able to circulate around the cookware in the oven for even heat to reach around the food.

Before Setting Surface Controls

Check Burner Cap Placement Before Operating

the Surface Burners

To prevent flare-ups and avoid creation of harmful by-products, do not use the cooktop without all burner caps properly installed to insure proper ignition and gas flame size.

It is very important to be sure that all surface burner caps and burner grates are properly installed and in the correct locations before operating the cooktop burners.

Important notes:

???Always keep surface burner caps in place whenever using a surface burner.

???When placing the burner caps, be sure that all burner caps are seated firmly and rest level on top of burner heads.

???For proper flow of gas and ignition of burners do not allow spills, food, cleaning agents or any other material to enter the gas orifice port opening.

On round style burners, the burner cap lip (See Figure 5) should fit snug into the center of burner head and rest level.

Burner cap

Burner head

Figure 5: Burner cap lip placement

Refer to Figure 6 for correct and incorrect burner cap place- ment.

Once in place, you may check the fit by gently sliding the burner cap from side to side to be sure it is centered and firmly seated (See Figure 7). When the burner cap lip makes contact inside the center of the burner head you will be able to hear the burner cap click. Please note that the burner cap should not move off the center of the burner head when sliding from side to side.

Check and be sure that all oval style (some models) burner caps are correctly in place on oval burner heads.

Figure 7: Checking the fit

Installing Burner Grates

Surface elements may appear to have cooled after they have been turned off. The surface element may still be hot and burns may occur if the surface element is touched before it has cooled sufficiently.

Figure 8: Burner grates placement

Make sure the burner grates are properly placed on the cooktop before using the surface burners. The grates are designed to rest inside the recess on the cooktop.

To install burner grates, place grates flat-side down and align into the cooktop recess. Grates should rest flush against each other and against the sides of the recess (See Figure 8).

Using Proper Cookware

Do not place flammable items such as plastic salt and pepper shakers, spoon holders or plastic wrappings on the cooktop when it is in use. These items could melt or ignite. Potholders, towels or wooden spoons could catch fire if placed too close to the range cooktop.

Important:

Do not place aluminum foil, or any material that can melt on the range cooktop. If these items melt they may damage the cooktop.

Before Setting Surface Controls

Setting Proper Burner Flame Size

Never extend the flame beyond the outer edge of the cooking utensil. A higher flame wastes energy, and increases your risk of being burned by the flame.

The color of the flame is the key to proper burner adjustment. A good flame is clear, blue and hardly visible in a well-lighted room. Each cone of flame should be steady and sharp. Adjust or clean burner if flame is yellow-orange.

For best cooking results, cook- ware should have flat bottoms that rest level on the surface burner grate. Before using cookware, check for flatness by rotating a ruler across the bot- tom of the cookware (See Figure 9).

Figure 9: Testing cookware

Important:

The size and type of utensil used, and the amount and type of food being cooked will influence the burner flame setting needed for best cooking results.

Cookware Material Types

The cookware material determines how evenly and quickly heat is transferred from the surface element to the pan bottom. The most popular materials available are:

Aluminum - Excellent heat conductor. Some types of food will cause it to darken (Anodized aluminum cookware resists staining and pitting).

Copper - Excellent heat conductor but discolors easily (See Aluminum).

Stainless - Slow heat conductor with uneven cooking results. Is durable, easy to clean and resists staining.

Cast Iron - A slow heat conductor however will retain heat very well. Cooks evenly once cooking temperature is reached.

Porcelain-enamel on metal - Heating characteristics will vary depending on base material.

Glass - Slow heat conductor.

correct flame setting

incorrect flame setting

Figure 10: Correct and incorrect flame settings

For most cooking: start on the highest setting and then turn to a lower setting to complete the process. Use the recommendations in Table 1 as a guide for determining proper flame size for various types of cooking.)

For deep fat frying: use a thermometer and adjust the surface knob accordingly. If the fat is too cool, the food will absorb the fat and be greasy. If the fat is too hot, the food will brown so quickly that the center will be under cooked. Do not attempt to deep fat fry too much food at once as the food will neither brown or cook properly.

Table 1: Flame size recommendations

*These settings are based for medium-weight metal or aluminum pans with lids. Settings may vary when using cookware made from different materials.

Setting Surface Controls

Setting Surface Burners

Your gas appliance may be equipped with different sized surface burners. The ability to heat food quicker and in larger volumes increases as the burner size increases. It is important to select cookware that is suitable for the amount and type of food being prepared.

The smaller SIMMER burner (on some models) is best suited for simmering delicate sauces, etc.

The standard size burners may be used for most surface cooking needs. Some models are equipped with a center burner.

The larger POWER burners (on some models) or TURBO BOIL burner (on some models) are recommended for bringing large quantities of liquid to temperature and when preparing larger quantities of food.

To set surface burners:

Do not place flammable items such as plastic salt and pepper shakers, spoon holders or plastic wrappings on the cooktop when it is in use. These items could melt or ignite. Potholders, towels or wooden spoons could catch fire if placed too close to the range cooktop.

Do not place aluminum foil, or any material that can melt on the range cooktop. If these items melt they may permanently damage the cooktop surface.

When operating the oven, it is possible for residual heat from the oven to build-up and over time to eventu- ally transfer to the surface control knobs located directly above the oven door.

1.Place cooking utensil on center of surface burner grate. Be sure the cooking utensil sets stable on the burner grate.

2.Push the desired surface control knob in and turn counter- clockwise out of the OFF position (See Figure 11).

3.Release the surface control knob and rotate to the LITE position. Visually check that the burner has lit.

4.Once the burner has a flame, push the control knob in and turn counterclockwise to the desired flame size. Use the control knob markings and adjust the flame as needed.

Figure 11: Surface control knob

Important notes:

???Do not cook with the surface control knob left in the LITE position. The electronic ignitor will continue to spark if the control knob setting remains in the LITE position.

???When setting any surface control knob to the LITE position, all electronic surface ignitors will spark at the same time. However, only the surface burner you are setting will ignite.

???Never place or straddle a cooking utensil over two different surface cooking areas at the same time. This can cause uneven heating results.

???In the event of an electrical power outage, the surface burners can be lit manually. Use caution when lighting surface burners manually. To light a surface burner, hold a lit match to the burner head, then slowly turn the surface control knob to LITE. After burner lights push in and turn knob to desired setting.

Convec Bake

Benefits of convection cooking include:

???Foods can cook up to 25 to 30% faster.

???Multiple rack baking.

???When using convection, use cookware or pans with low sides. This allows the air to circulate around the food evenly.

Convection functions use a fan to circulate the oven's heat uniformly and continuously around the oven. This improved heat distribution allows for fast, even cooking and browning results. It also gives better baking results when using two oven racks at the same time. Heated air flows around the food from all sides, sealing in juices and flavors. Breads and pastry brown more evenly. Most foods baked in a standard pan will cook faster and more evenly with the convection feature. Convec Bake may be set for any oven temperature between 300??F (148??C) and 550??F (288??C).

To set Convec. Bake with a default oven set temperature of 350??F:

Figure 20: Air movement using convection

Important notes:

???The convection fan on a gas range will not begin rotating until Convec Bake has been into the cycle for six minutes.

???If the oven door is opened when Convec Bake is active, the convection fan will stop rotating until the oven door is closed.

???When using Convec Bake, cook time reductions may vary depending on the amount and type of food being cooked.

Suggestions for Convec Bake:

???For optimum cooking results, it is recommended to preheat the oven when baking foods such as cookies, biscuits, and breads.

???Reduce oven temperature 25??F from recipe???s recommended oven temperature. Follow the remainder of the recipe???s instructions using the minimum recommended cook time.

???For best results when using a single oven rack, place rack in position 2 or 3 (See Figure 20). When using two oven racks, place in positions 1 and 4. When using three oven racks, place in positions 1, 3, and 6 (use offset rack only in position 6).

???Dark or dull pans absorb more heat than shiny bakeware resulting in dark or overbrowning of foods. It may be necessary to reduce the oven temperature or cook time to prevent overbrowning of some foods. Dark pans are recom- mended for pies. Shiny pans are recommended for cakes, cookies, and muffins.

Figure 21: Baking on multiple levels

Baking tips

???Fully preheat the oven before cooking items like cookies, biscuits, and breads.

???When using any single rack, position the rack so that the food is in the center of the oven.

???For best results when baking cakes or cookies using two oven racks, place racks in positions 3 and 5 (See Figure 20).

???Dark or dull bakeware absorbs more heat than shiny bakeware. It may be necessary to reduce oven temperature and cook time to prevent overbrowning of some foods. Dark bakeware is recommended for pies. Shiny bakeware is recommended for cakes, cookies, and muffins.

???Use cookware or pans with low sides. This allows the air to circulate around the food evenly.

???Glass cookware may require reduced temperatures.

Setting Conv Roast

The Conv Roast function combines a cook cycle with the convec- tion fan to roast meats and poultry. Meats cooked using the Conv Roast function will be juicier, and poultry will be crisp on the outside while staying tender and moist on the inside.

Conv Roast may be set for any oven temperature between 170??F (77??C) and 550??F (288??C).

Suggestions for Conv Roast:

???Preheating is not necessary when roasting foods using Conv Roast. Since Conv Roast cooks food faster, reduce the cook time by 25% from the recommended cook time of your recipe. If necessary, increase cooking time until the desired doneness is obtained.

???The broiler pan will catch grease drippings, and the grid will help prevent splatters. The roasting rack will hold the meat. Use the offset rack on rack position 1.

???Do not cover foods when dry roasting because this will prevent the meat from browning properly.

To set Conv Roast with a default oven set temperature of 350??F:

???After 6 minutes, the convection fan will begin rotating once Conv Bake, Conv Roast, or Conv Convert has been acti- vated.

???If the oven door is opened when any convection function is active, the convection fan will stop rotating until the oven door is closed.

???It is not recommended to roast chicken on a roasting rack. Use a deep pan instead.

Setting Conv Convert

Pressing the Conv Convert key automatically converts the cooking temperature entered for any standard baking recipe to the lower temperature required for convection baking.

When Conv Convert is used with a timed Conv Bake setting of 20 minutes or more, the Conv Convert function will display a CF message as a reminder to check food when the bake time is 75% complete (See Figure 22). At this time the oven control will sound one long beep at regular intervals until the set cook time has finished.

Setting Slow Cook

The Slow Cook feature cooks foods more slowly and at lower oven temperatures for longer periods of time. Slow Cook is ideal for roasting beef, pork and poultry. Slow cooking meats may result in the exterior of meats becoming dark but will not burn the outside as it seals in the meat???s juices.

Two Slow Cook settings are available: high (Hi) and low (Lo). The high setting is best for cooking foods between 4 and 5 hours. The low setting is best for cooking foods up to 9 hours or longer.

Some tips for best results when using Slow Cook:

???Completely thaw all frozen foods before cooking.

???When using a single oven rack, place in oven rack position 2 or 3. Position racks to accommodate the size of various bakeware when cooking multiple food items.

???Do not open the oven door often or leave the door open when checking foods. If the oven heat escapes often, the Slow Cook time may need to be extended.

???Cover to keep foods moist or use a loose or vented type cover to allow foods to turn crisp or brown.

???Roasts may be left uncovered so browning can occur. Cook times will vary depending on the weight, fat content, bone, and the shape of the roast. Preheating the oven will not be necessary when using the Slow Cook feature.

???Add any cream or cheese sauces during the last hour of cooking.

Important note:

???Slow Cook may be used with additional settings of Cook Time and Delay Start.

???The maximum cook time for Slow Cook function is 11 hours and 59 minutes unless the control has been changed to the continuous bake mode.

To set Slow Cook:

Setting the Sabbath feature (for use on the Jewish Sabbath and Holidays)

For further assistance, guidelines for proper usage, and a complete list of models with the Sabbath feature, please visit the web at www.star-k.org.

This appliance provides special settings for use when observing the Jewish Sabbath/Holidays. Sabbath mode disables all audible tones or visual display changes on the oven control. Bake heating is the only cooking feature available while in the Sabbath mode. Oven controls are locked during Sabbath mode.

You must first set the Bake feature and temperature(s) needed for the oven, the Cook Time, and the Delay Start options (if needed). Any settings made prior to setting the Sabbath mode will be visible in the displays. The Cook Time option, if set prior to the Sabbath mode, will give one audible alert at the end of Cook Time.

The Sabbath mode will override the factory preset 12 hour energy saving mode, and the appliance will stay on until the cooking features are cancelled. If any of the cooking features are cancelled when the appliance is in the Sabbath mode, no audible or visual indicators will be available to verify the can- cellation.

If the oven interior lights are needed, be sure to activate them prior to setting the Sabbath mode. Once the oven light is turned on and the Sabbath mode is active, the oven light will remain on until the Sabbath mode is turned off and the oven lights are turned off. The oven door will not activate the interior oven lights when the oven door is opened or closed.

It is recommended that any oven temperature modification made within an active Sabbath mode be followed with two presses of the START key. This will insure the oven remains on even if an attempt is made to set the oven temperature outside of its temperature range. If the oven temperature is set outside of the temperature range, the oven will default to the nearest available temperature. Try to set the desired oven temperature again.

Food poisoning hazard. Do not let food sit for more than one hour before or after cooking. Doing so can result in food poisoning or sickness. Foods that can easily spoil such as milk, eggs, fish, meat or poultry, should be chilled in the refriger- ator first. Even when chilled, they should not stand in the oven for more than 1 hour before cooking begins, and should be removed promptly when finished cooking.

To program oven to Bake with default oven temperature of 350??F and activate the Sabbath feature:

1.Be sure the clock is set with the correct time of day.

2.Arrange oven racks, place bakeware in oven, and close oven door.

3.Press Bake.

4.Press .

Self Clean

A self cleaning oven cleans itself with high temperatures (well above normal cooking temperatures), which eliminate soils com- pletely or reduces them to a fine powdered ash you can wipe away afterwards with a damp cloth.

The Self Clean function on this model can be programmed for any duration between 2 and 4 hours. Use numeric keypad or the Up / Down arrow keys. Each time an arrow key is pressed, the time is changed by 1 minute up or down. Press START.

Read before starting Self Clean. Be sure to read all following caution and important statements before starting a self clean cycle.

Do not leave small children unattended near appliance. During self clean cycle, the outside of the oven can become very hot and cause burns if touched.

Do not line the oven walls, racks, oven bottom, or any part of the range with aluminum foil. This will cause per- manent damage to the oven interior and destroy heat distribu- tion, and will met to the oven interior.

Do not force the oven door open. This will damage the automatic door locking system. Use caution when opening the oven door after the self clean cycle ends. The oven may still be very hot and cause burns. To avoid possible burns, stand to side of oven when opening door to allow steam or hot air to escape.

The health of some birds is extremely sensitive to fumes given off during the self clean cycle of any range. Move birds to a well ventilated room.

Important notes:

???Completely remove all oven racks and any accessories from oven cavity to avoid damage to oven racks. If the oven racks are not removed they may discolor. Remove all items from the oven and cooktop including cookware, utensils, and any aluminum foil. Aluminum foil will not withstand high temperatures from a self clean cycle and will melt.

???Do not use oven cleaners or oven protective coatings in or around any part of the oven interior. Clean any soil from the oven frame, the door liner outside the oven door gasket, and the small area at the front center of the oven bottom (See Figure 32). These areas heat sufficiently to burn soil on. Clean using soap and water prior to starting Self Clean.

???Remove any excessive spills. Any spills on the oven bottom should be wiped up and removed before starting a Self Clean cycle. To clean use hot, soapy water and a cloth. Large spills can cause heavy smoke or fire when subjected to high temperatures. Do not allow food spills with high sugar or acid content (such as milk, tomatoes, sauerkraut, fruit juices, or pie fillings) to remain on the surface as they may leave a dull spot even after cleaning.

Figure 32: Areas to clean and to avoid

???Do not clean the oven door gasket. The woven material in the gasket is essential for a good seal. Care should be taken not to rub, damage, or remove the oven door gasket. Doing so could cause damage to the door gasket and compromise the performance of the oven.

Important notes:

???The kitchen area should be well ventilated using an open window, ventilation fan, or exhaust hood during the first Self Clean cycle. This will help eliminate the normal odors.

???Do not attempt to open the oven door when the OVEN LOCK indicator light is flashing. Allow about 15 seconds for the motorized door latch mechanism to completely lock or unlock the oven door.

???When the clean time finishes, the oven door will remain locked until the range has cooled sufficiently. In addition to the clean time that was programmed, you must allow about 1 additional hour for the oven to cool before you will be able to open the oven door.

Ammonia must be rinsed before operating the oven. Provide adequate ventilation.

Aluminum Foil and Utensils

Never cover any slots, holes, or passages in the oven bottom or cover an entire oven 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 trap heat, causing a fire hazard.

Protective Liners ??? Do not use aluminum foil to line the oven bottom. Only use aluminum foil as recommended in this manual. Improper installation of these liners may result in risk of electric shock, or fire.

???Aluminum foil - Use of aluminum foil on a hot cooktop can damage the cooktop. Do not use thin aluminum cooking utensils or allow aluminum foil to touch the surface burners under any circumstances.

???Aluminum utensils - The melting point of aluminum is much lower than that of other metals. Care must be taken when aluminum pots or pans are used on the cooktop. If aluminum pans are allowed to boil dry when using the cooktop, the utensil will be damaged or destroyed.

Cleaning the Cooktop and Surface Burners

To avoid possible burns, do not attempt any of the cooktop cleaning instructions provided before turning OFF all of the surface burners and allow them to completely cool.

Any additions, changes or conversions required in order for this appliance to satisfactorily meet the application needs must be made by an authorized qualified agency.

Routinely clean the cooktop. Wipe with a clean, damp cloth and wipe dry to avoid scratches.

Keeping the surface burner head ports and slots clean will prevent improper ignition and an uneven flame.

Cleaning Recessed and Contoured Areas of Cooktop

If a spill occurs on or in the recessed or contoured areas, blot up spill with an absorbent cloth. Rinse with a clean, damp cloth and wipe dry.

Care & Cleaning

To clean surface burner grates:

???Clean only after the grates are completely cool.

???Use nonabrasive plastic scrubbing pad and mild abrasive cleanser or clean in the dishwasher.

???Food soils containing acids may affect the finish. Clean immediately after the grates are cool.

???Thoroughly dry grates immediately following cleaning.

To clean burner caps:

???Remove caps from burner heads after they have cooled.

???Clean heavy soils with a plastic scrubbing pad and absorbent cloth.

???Thoroughly dry burner caps immediately following cleaning including the bottom and inside of cap.

???Do not use abrasive cleaners. They can scratch porcelain.

???Do not clean burner caps in the dishwasher.

???Do not operate surface burners without burner caps properly in place. Read important notes.

Cleaning Surface Burner Heads

For proper gas flow it may be necessary to clean the burner head and slots. To clean, first use a clean damp cloth to soak up any spills. Remove any food from between the burner slots using a small nonabrasive brush like a toothbrush and afterwards wipe up using a damp cloth. For stubborn soils located in the slots, use a small-gauge wire or needle to clean.

Any spill on or around the electrode must be carefully cleaned. Take care not to hit the electrode with any thing hard or it could be damaged.

Care & Cleaning

To clean the burner head ignition ports:

Each burner head has a small ignition port located as shown. Should you experience ignition problems it may be that this port hole is partially blocked with soil. With the burner head in place, use a small wire gauge needle or the end of a paper clip to clear the ignition port (Refer to Figure 33; round style shown; oval burner on some models not shown).

Important notes:

???The surface burner heads are secured to the cooktop and must be cleaned in place on the cooktop.

???Always keep the surface burner caps in place whenever a surface burner is in use.

???When replacing the burner caps, be sure the burner caps are seated firmly on top of the burner heads.

???For proper flow of gas and ignition of burners do not allow spills, food, cleaning agents or any other material to enter the gas orifice port opening.

Replacing Oven Light (some models)

The oven light is located at the rear of the oven cavity and is covered with a glass shield held by a wire holder. The glass shield protects the light bulb and must be in place whenever the oven is in use.

Figure 34: Replacing the oven light

To replace the interior oven light bulb:

Be sure the range is unplugged and all parts are cool before replacing oven light. Wear a leather-faced glove for protection against possible broken glass.

1.Turn electrical power off at the main source or unplug the range.
