Before Using Your Oven

Be sure you understand how to set the controls properly. Practice removing and replacing the shelves while the oven is cool. Read the information and tips on the following pages. Keep this book handy where you can refer to it, especially during the first weeks of using your new range.

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

To light either burner, press the pad for the desired function then 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 oven burner cycles—off completely, then on with a full flame-to keep the oven temperature controlled.

Power Outage

CAUTION: DO NOT MAKE ANY ATTEM~ TO OPERATE THE ELECTRIC IGNITION OVEN DURING AN ELECTRICAL POWER FAILURE. The oven or broiler cannot be lit during a power failure. Gas will not flow unless the glow bar is hot.

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

Oven Shelves

The shelves are designed with stop-locks so when placed correctly on the shelf supports, they will stop before coming completely out of the oven and will not tilt when you are removing food from them or placing food on them.

When placing cookware on a shelf, pull the shelf out to the “stop” position. Place the cookware on the shelf, then slide the shelf back into the oven. This will eliminate reaching into the hot oven.
