Instructions

Using the oven.

To avoid possible burns, place the shelves in the desired position before you turn the oven on.

Instructions Safety

Before you begin…

The shelves have stop-locks, so that when placed correctly on the supports, they will stop before coming completely out, and will not tilt.

When placing and removing cookware, pull the shelf out to the bump on the shelf support.

The oven has 4 shelf positions.

To remove a shelf, pull it toward you, tilt the front end up and pull it out.

To replace, place the end of the shelf (stop-locks) on the support, tilt up the front and push the shelf in.

Cleaning Operating

Electric Ignition

The oven burner and broil burner are lit by electric ignition.

To light either burner, press the pad for the desired function and press the INCREASE or DECREASE pad until the desired temperature is displayed. The burner should ignite within 30–90 seconds.

After the oven reaches the selected temperature, the burner cycles—off completely, then on with a full flame—to keep the oven temperature controlled.

Tips Care and

Power Outage

CAUTION: Do not make any attempt to operate the electric ignition oven during an electrical power outage.

Neither the oven nor the broiler can be lit during an electrical power outage. Gas will not flow unless the glow bar is hot.

If the oven is in use when a power outage occurs, the oven burner shuts off and cannot be re-lit until power is restored.

Customer Service Troubleshooting

Plastic items on the cooktop may melt if left too close to the vent.

Oven Vent

Your oven is vented through ducts at the rear of the range. Do not block these ducts when cooking in the oven—it is important that the flow of hot air from the oven and fresh air to the oven burner be uninterrupted. Avoid touching the vent openings or nearby surfaces during oven or broiler operation—they may become hot.

■Vent openings and nearby surfaces may become hot. Do not touch them.

■Handles of pots and pans on the cooktop may become hot if left too close to the vent.

■Do not leave plastic items on the cooktop— they may melt if left too close to the vent.

■Do not leave any items on the cooktop. The hot air from the vent may ignite flammable items and will increase pressure in closed containers, which may cause them to burst.

■Metal items will become very hot if they are left on the cooktop, and could cause burns.
