OPERATION GAS SURFACE BURNERS BEFORE USING THE GAS SURFACE BURNERS Read all instructions before using. WARNING • Make sure all burners are in their correct locations and fully assembled before attempting to operate any burner. • Never leave the surface burners on unattended. Boilovers may cause smoke and greasy spillovers that may ignite. • Do not use aluminum foil to line or cover the cooktop, grates, or any other part of the cooktop.
IMPORTANT: • 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 ventilation holes open or install a mechanical ventilation device (mechanical extractor hood). • Prolonged intensive use of the appliance may call for additional ventilation, for example opening of a window, or more effective ventilation, for example increasing the level of mechanical ventilation where present.
Selecting a Flame Size Watch the flame, not the control knob, as you reduce heat. Match the flame size on a gas burner to the cookware being used for fastest heating. NOTE: • Never let the flames extend up the sides of the cookware. Flames larger than the bottom of the cookware will not heat faster and may be hazardous. In Case of Power Failure In case of a power failure, you can light the gas surface burners on your range with a match.
Enamelware Under some conditions, the enamel of this cookware may melt. Follow cookware manufacturer’s recommendations for cooking methods. Glass There are two types of glass cookware. Those for oven use only and those for top-of-range cooking. 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.
OVEN BEFORE USING THE OVEN Read all instructions before using. CAUTION • Do not use any type of foil or oven liner to cover the oven bottom. These items can trap heat or melt, resulting in damage to the product and risk of shock, smoke or fire. Damage from improper use of these items is not covered by the product warranty. • Foil may be used to catch spills by placing a sheet on a lower rack, several inches below the food.
OVEN VENT Areas near the vent may become hot during operation and may cause burns. Avoid placing plastics near the vent as heat may distort or melt the plastic. Do not block the vents (air openings) of the range. They provide the air inlet and outlet that are necessary for the range to keep cool and operate properly with correct combustion. It is normal for steam to be visible when cooking foods with high moisture content.
Removing Racks 1. Pull the rack straight out until it stops. 2. Lift up the front of the rack and pull it out. Replacing Racks 1. Place the end of the rack on the support. 2. Tilt the front end up and push the rack in. Rack Positions For best cooking results, adjust rack so food is placed at the center of the oven. For most foods this will be rack position #4. For larger foods like roasts and turkey, move the rack position down to #3 or #2 to keep the food centered in the oven.
Some foods are more robust and may have acceptable results without preheating. These foods include large pieces of meat (whole roasts, hams, or poultry) where the total cooking time is much longer than the time required to preheat. These foods also include frozen potato products and frozen processed dinners that, by their nature and design, are more robust to baking variations. More delicate foods, such breads (including cakes, cookies, pastries, and pizzas), desserts, soufflés, etc.
PIZZA The Pizza mode uses heat from the upper and lower heating elements and adopts customized heating algorithm to optimize baking performance for pizza, which is also ideal for pastries and cakes with wet covering and little sugar and damp desserts in moulds, or dishes requiring more heat in the lower area. Always preheat the oven first and place food near the middle racks. Setting the Pizza Mode 1. Press PIZZA. The default set temperature 400°F is shown in the display. 2.
BAKE The Bake mode uses heat from the lower heating element primarily and the upper heating element to achieve exceptional baking performance. This mode works best with food placed on a single rack. When using this mode to prepare baked goods such as cakes, cookies and pastries, always preheat the oven first and place food centrally near the middle racks. Setting the Bake Mode (Example: Set Bake at 375°F.) 1. Press BAKE. The default bake temperature 350°F is shown in the display. 2.
BROIL The Broil mode uses intense heat from the upper heating element to sear foods. This mode works best for tender cuts of meat, fish, and thinly cut vegetables, and is ideal for toasting, melting cheese, browning and searing surface. Food should be placed near the upper racks, and should not be cooked for too long on each side of the food. It is not necessary to preheat when using this mode. Setting the Broil Mode 1. Press BROIL. The default broil setting is High Broil.
KEEP WARM The Keep Warm mode uses heat from the lower heating element primarily and the upper heating element to maintain oven temperature at around 150°F (65°C) and keep cooked food warm for serving up to 3 hours after cooking has finished. Cover foods that need to remain moist and do not cover foods that should be crisp. Preheating is not required. This mode should not be used to reheat cold food. It is also recommended that food not be kept warm for more than 2 hours. Setting the Keep Warm Mode 1.
CONVECT BAKE The Convection Bake mode uses heat from the lower heating element primarily and the upper heating element and hot air movement from the convection fan to enhance cooking efficiency and evenness across multiple racks. Always preheat the oven first. Baking times may be slightly longer for multiple racks than what would be expected for a single rack. Setting the Convect Bake Mode (Example: Set Convection Bake at 375°F.) 1. Press CONVECT BAKE.
PROOF The Proof mode uses heat from the oven lights and air movement from the convection fan to maintain a gently warm oven temperature at around 86°F (30°C) for rising yeast-leavened products before baking. Preheating is not required. Place dough centrally near the middle racks, and cover dough well to prevent drying out. Setting the Proof Mode 1. Press PROOF. 2. Place the food in the oven. 3. Press START/ENTER. 4. To cancel the Proof mode, press CLEAR/OFF.
COOK TIME Set the oven to cook for a specific length of time up to 12 hours and the oven turns off automatically at the end of the cooking time. This feature can only be used with the Bake, Keep Warm, Convect Roast, Convect Bake modes, and may be set at any point during the oven cooking cycle. Cook Time can be set after Delay in conjunction for a delayed timed cook. (Refer to the "Delay" section.) NOTE: • The clock must be set to the correct time of day for the Cook Time feature to work properly.
DELAY Set the oven to turn on at a specific time of day within the next 12 hours. This feature can only be used with the Bake, Keep Warm, Convect Roast, Convect Bake, Proof, Self Clean, and Steam Clean modes. Cook Time can be set after Delay for a delayed timed cook. The oven will turn on at a specific time of day within the next 12 hours and cook for a specific length of time up to 12 hours, and the oven will turn off automatically at the end of the cooking.
4. Set the start time of day. (Press 0, 4, 3, and 0. Use the DELAY button to switch between AM and PM if needed.) 5. Press START/ENTER, and place the food in the oven. "DELAY START" is shown in the display, and the clock alternates between the current time of day and the time when the oven will turn on. 6. At the set start time, a cook start tone sounds and the oven begins to cook. 7. Press CLEAR/OFF when cooking is finished, and remove the food from the oven.
USING THE SABBATH MODE The Sabbath mode complies with Jewish Sabbath requirements, and is typically used on the Jewish Sabbath and Holidays. Some of these standards that will be noticed by the consumer include the disabling of tones, disabling of oven lights, and delays of about 30 seconds to one minute on display changes. When the Sabbath mode is activated, the oven does not turn off until the Sabbath mode is deactivated. Only continuous baking or timed baking is allowed.
Setting a Continuous Bake in Sabbath Mode (Example: Set Bake at 250°F.) 1. Place the food in the oven. 2. Press 2 in the number pads to select preset 250°F Bake. 3. Press START/ENTER. After a delay between 30 and 60 seconds, a second bracket "] [" will appear in the display indicating that the oven is baking. 4. Press CLEAR/OFF when cooking is finished, and remove the food from the oven.
TIPS AND TECHNIQUES BAKE Baking is cooking with heated air. Both upper and lower elements in the oven are used to heat the air but no fan is used to circulate the heat. Follow the recipe or convenience food directions for baking temperature, time and rack position. Baking time will vary with the temperature of ingredients and the size, shape and finish of the baking utensil. • For best results, bake food on a single rack with at least 1" - 1½" (2.5 - 3 cm) space between utensils and oven walls.

CONVECTION ROAST The Convection Roast mode uses heat from both upper and lower elements and hot air movement from the convection fan to enhance cooking efficiency and evenness across multiple racks. Heated air circulates around the food from all sides, sealing in juices and flavors. • Use the 2-piece broil pan, and roast in a low-sided, uncovered pan. • When roasting whole chickens or turkey, tuck wings behind back and loosely tie legs with kitchen string.

• Dark metal pans may be used. Note that food may brown faster when using dark metal bake ware. • The number of racks used is determined by the height of the food to be cooked. • Baked items, for the most part, cook extremely well in convection. Don’t try to convert recipes such as custards, quiches, pumpkin pie, or cheesecakes, which do not benefit from the convection-heating process. Use the regular Bake mode for these foods.
