Gas Supply Requirement Electrical Grounding Instructions This indoor gas cooking appliance is equipped with a four-prong (grounding) plug for your protection against shock hazard and should be plugged directly into a properly grounded fourpronged receptacle. Where a standard three-prong wall receptacle is encountered, it is the responsibility and obligation of the customer to have it replaced with a properly grounded four-prong wall receptacle. Do not cut or remove the grounding prong from the power cord.
Gas Supply Requirement The use of cabinets for storage above the appliance may result in a potential burn hazard. Combustible items may ignite; metallic items may become hot and cause burns. If a cabinet storage is to be provided, the risk can be reduced by installing a range hood that projects horizontally a minimum of 5" (12.7cm) beyond the bottom of the cabinets. Connect Range to Gas Supply 1.
First Use 12. First Use Before you start 1. Make sure that the anti-tip of the range has been properly installed. 2. Find the model and serial numbers on the CSA label. Note these numbers down for future reference in the space provided in section “Warranty and service”. 3. Read this guide, taking special note of the “Safety and warnings” section. 4. Remove all the packaging from the oven(s) and cooktop. Recycle items that you can.
First Use Positioning the shelves Both the sides panel and shelves have safety stops to keep them from sliding out of the oven when pulled forward. Shelves also have a stop that prevents the shelves from hitting the back of the oven.
First Use This is how to properly position the shelves: Hold the front of both sides of the shelf firmly to keep it in horizontal position. Put the shelf on the slot horizontally. Lift the front about 15 degrees upward until the tag of the shelf clears the safety stop of the side rack. Then lower the shelf horizontally and slide all the way into the oven. Other shelves can be installed this way.
Cooktop Safety Guidelines 13. Cooktop Safety Guidelines There are dual ring burners have the same low turn-down setting (SIM) for gentle simmering (650 BTU/hr.). Use the SIM setting for melting chocolate and butter, cooking rice and delicate sauces, simmering soups and stews, and keeping cooked food hot. ✓ Never leave the cooktop unattended when in use. Boil over causes smoking and greasy spills that may ignite. ✓ Never allow flames to extend beyond cookware or curl up on sides.
Cooktop Safety Guidelines Surface Burner Ignition To light the top burners, push and turn the appropriate control knob counterclockwise to the “HI” position. You will hear a clicking sound – the sound of the electric spark igniting the burner. Once burner ignition has been achieved, turn the burner control knob to adjust the desired heat setting. When one burner is turned to the “HI” position, the burner igniters will spark.
Cooktop Safety Guidelines Flame Size When you select the flame size, watch the flame when you turn the knob. Any flame larger than the bottom of the cookware is wasted. The flame should be steady and blue in color. Foreign material in the gas line may cause an orange flame during initial operation. Power Failure If the gas does not ignite within four seconds, turn off the valve and allow at least five minutes for any gas to dissipate. Repeat the lighting procedure. Do not attempt to during power failure.
Cooktop Safety Guidelines Burner Grates The grates must be properly positioned before cooking. Improper installation of the grates may result in scratching of the cooktop and/or poor combustion.
Oven Burner Use Cooktop Safety Guidelines To light the oven burner, push and turn the appropriate control knob counterclockwise to the (150℉~500℉) position. Once burner ignition has been achieved, turn the burner control knob to adjust the desired temperature setting. Do not push and turn the control knob clockwise from the “OFF” position. Do not turn the control knob without pushing it.
Cooktop Safety Guidelines Oven Cooking Safety Guidelines ✓ Do not block the ducts on the rear of the range when cooking in the oven. It is important that the flow of moist warm air from the oven and fresh air into the oven burner never be interrupted. Avoid touching the vent opening or nearby surfaces during oven or broiler operation because they are hot. Do not pace plastics, paper or other items that could melt or burn near the oven vent. ✓ Use all the oven modes with the oven door closed.
Oven Function 14. Oven Function Natural Airflow Bake Natural airflow bake occurs when heat is transferred into the oven from the bake burners in the bottom of the oven cavity. Heat is then circulated by natural airflow. This is a traditional bake setting. Small Oven For small oven in 48-inch range design, it’s a roasting oven for keeping warm, not for baking of cookies or cakes. For better cooking performance and exact oven cavity temperature, preheating time will be 10 mins per 100 Degrees.
Oven Function A shiny finish may work best for foods that require lighter, delicate browning (e.g. cakes and cookies), as it reflects some heat and gives a less intense baking surface. Avoid opening the oven door frequently during baking. *For best results use the broiler pan. The pan is used to catch grease spills and has a cover to prevent grease splatter.
Griddle Operation 15. Broiler Operation Door must be closed during broiler operation. Broiling is a method of cooking tender cuts of meat directly under the infrared broiler in the oven. Broiling in the oven is accomplished with the oven door closed. It is normal and necessary for some smoke to be present to give the food a broiled flavor. If you open the oven door to check the food, have it open for as short a time as possible.
Griddle Operation To set the oven to Broil: Place the broiler pan insert on the broiler pan. Then place the food on the broiler pan insert. Arrange the interior oven rack and place the broiler pan on the rack. Be sure to center the broiler pan and position directly under the broil burner. If preheating the broil burner first, position the broiler pan after the broil burner is preheated. Turn selector knob to Broil.
Griddle Operation (griddle light) will be turning on when the griddle burner is on. 3. When the griddle is preheated to the desired temperature, the griddle light will be turning off. The Griddle light cycles on and off like the oven cycling light. It’s not a pre-heat light 4. The front of the griddle will be cooler than the back. Rear of griddle is cooking area while the front of griddle if for warming area. 5. Butter or cooking oil could be added to the surface of the Griddle.
Griddle Operation See the pages following this chart for instructions on removing and replacing various parts of the range for cleaning or maintenance. To help you identify any parts, see illustrations in section ‘Introduction’ and after this cleaning chart.
Cleaning Instructions Don’ts Do not use aerosol cleaners until the range has completely cooled. The propellant substance in these cleaners could catch fire in the presence of heat. Do not let soiling or grease accumulate anywhere in or on the range. This will make future cleaning more difficult and may present a fire hazard. Do not use any abrasive or harsh cleaners, cloths, scouring pads or steel wool. These will scratch your range and damage its appearance.
Cleaning Instructions Dry the components with a soft, lint-free cloth. Cleaning Side Racks Pre-soak any stubborn, burnt-on soiling, then clean with a solution of mild detergent and hot water and wipe dry with a microfiber cloth. Alternatively, clean these in the dishwasher. Cleaning Oven Shelves To remove stubborn or “baked-on” material, scrub with a dampened, soap-filled, non-metal, non-abrasive pad, then wipe dry. Apply a chrome cleaner with a damp sponge or cloth following manufacturer’s instructions.
Cleaning Instructions Cleaning Oven Door Gasket Avoid cleaning this part. If you need to remove large food particles off it, proceed as follows: Dampen a sponge with clean hot water. Gently wipe off the soiling, but do not rub. Press a dry towel gently on the gasket to dry. Do not use any cleaning detergents on the gasket. The gasket is essential for a good seal. CAUTION: Do not scratch, displace, or damage it. Cleaning Stainless Steel Surfaces Do not use any cleaning product with chlorine bleach.
Replacing Burner Parts 19. Replacing Burner Parts This diagram shows how to replace the burner parts. When replacing the burners, make sure that the two locating pins on the bottom of the brass flame spreader are properly aligned with the locating pin holes on the top of the simmer ring.
