Let hot air or steam escape before removing or placing food in a hot oven. Use only dry pot holders.
ELECTRICAL WARNINGS Comply with the following electrical instructions and requirements to avoid death, personal injury from electric shock, and/or property damage from fire: WARNING 1 2 3 4 Plug into a grounded 3-prong outlet. DO NOT remove ground prong. DO NOT use an adapter. NEVER use an extension cord. Use a dedicated 120-volt, 60-Hz, 20-amp, AC, fused electrical circuit for this appliance. A time-delay fuse or circuit breaker is recommended. DO NOT plug more than one appliance in this circuit.
4.8 Cu. Ft. Freestanding Gas Convection Range with Steam Cleaning This appliance must be properly grounded. Plug your range into a 120- volt grounded outlet that is only used for this appliance. Do not remove the grounding (third) prong from the plug. Firmly plug the power cord into the wall outlet. If you are not sure your electrical outlet is grounded, it is your personal responsibility and obligation to have a properly grounded, three-prong outlet installed in accordance with local and national codes.
Keep pot holders away from open flames when lifting cookware. Never use a towel or bulky cloth in place of a pot holder. Keep all plastic away from the surface burners or any open flame. When using glass cookware, make sure it is designed for top-of-range cooking. Always make sure cookware handles are turned to the side or rear of the cooktop, but not over other surface burners. This will minimize the chance of burns, spillovers, and ignition of flammable materials due to bumping the pan.
4.8 Cu. Ft. Freestanding Gas Convection Range with Steam Cleaning Keep the oven free from grease buildup. Reposition oven racks when the oven is cool to prevent burning or personal injury.

4.8 Cu. Ft. Freestanding Gas Convection Range with Steam Cleaning Before you begin using your range WARNING: All electrical and gas equipment with moving parts can be dangerous. Making sure that you read and understand all safety information. See IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS on page 4. Pay particular attention to SURFACE BURNER WARNINGS on page 9 and OVEN WARNINGS on page 10. Before turning on the burners or oven: • Remove all packaging materials.
Using the surface burners WARNINGS: Before using the surface burners, make sure to follow all the safety warnings and precautions as listed. Failure to do so could result in product damage, personal injury, and/or death. When you want to move a pot or pan onto another burner, lift it up and place it on the other burner. Do not slide a pot or pan from one burner to another. Your range cooktop has five surface burners.
4.8 Cu. Ft. Freestanding Gas Convection Range with Steam Cleaning What your cookware is made of determines how evenly and quickly heat is transferred from the surface burner to the pan bottom. MATERIAL DESCRIPTION Aluminum Excellent heat conductor. Some types of food cause aluminum to darken. (Anodized aluminum cookware resists staining and pitting.) Copper Excellent heat conductor, but discolors easily. Stainless Steel Slow heat conductor with uneven cooking results.
Using the oven WARNING: Stand away from the oven when opening the oven door. Escaping hot air or steam can burn your hands, face, or eyes. Let hot air or steam escape before removing or replacing food.
4.8 Cu. Ft. Freestanding Gas Convection Range with Steam Cleaning Positioning the oven racks You can remove and reposition the oven racks in any of the six rack positions. Each oven rack has a built-in stop to prevent it from accidentally being pulled completely out. Correct positioning of the oven racks provides the best cooking results. Note: The rack position above 6 is not usable. CAUTIONS: • Do not cover an oven rack with aluminum foil. This disturbs the heat circulation and results in poor baking.
Replacing an oven rack 1 Place the back edge of the rack on the a rack support. 2 Lift up the front of the rack and slide it into the oven. Baking layer cakes Note: Correct positioning of food items in the oven helps you achieve the best cooking results. • • • • Centering the baking pans in the oven produces better cooking results. When baking multiple items, make sure that you leave a 1 to 1.5 in. (2.5 to 3.8 cm) space around each item.
4.8 Cu. Ft. Freestanding Gas Convection Range with Steam Cleaning Setting the clock The clock must be set to the correct time of day for the automatic oven timing functions to work correctly. You can adjust the clock to show a 12-hour or 24-hour display. The 12-hour display is the default setting.

Fan baking and roasting The Fan Bake and Fan Roast functions lets you program the oven to bake or roast at any temperature between 150° F (66° C) and 550° F (288° C). The fan in the back of the oven cavity circulates the hot air evenly throughout the oven cavity. As a result, foods are more evenly cooked and browned in less time than with regular heat. For fan baking: • Ideal for foods being cooked on multiple racks. • Good for large quantities of baked foods.
4.8 Cu. Ft. Freestanding Gas Convection Range with Steam Cleaning Programming a delayed start time The Delay Start function lets you use the kitchen timer to automatically start and stop another cooking program (Bake, Fan Bake, or Fan Roast). You can set a delay from 1 minute to 10 hours. The clock must be set to the correct time of day for Delay Start to work correctly. CAUTION: Use caution when using the Delay Start function.
