ANTI-TIP DEVICE

WARNING

Tip-Over Hazard

A child or adult can tip the range and be killed.

Verify the anti-tip bracket has been properly installed and engaged.

Ensure the anti-tip bracket is re-engaged when the range is moved.

Do not operate the range without the anti-tip bracket in place and engaged.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in death or serious burns to children or adults.

Anti-Tip Bracket Leveling Leg

To reduce the risk of tipping the range, the range must be secured by a properly installed anti-tip bracket. See installation instructions

shipped with the bracket for complete details before attempting to install.

To check if the bracket is installed and engaged properly, look underneath the range to see that the rear leveling leg is engaged in the bracket. On some models, the storage drawer or kick panel can be removed for easy inspection. If visual inspection is not possible, slide the range forward, confirm the anti-tip bracket is securely attached to the floor or wall, and slide the range back so the rear leveling leg is under the anti-tip bracket.

If your range is removed for cleaning, servicing or any reason, be sure the anti-tip device is reengaged properly when the range is replaced. Failure to take this precaution could result in tipping of the range and can result in death or serious burns to children or adults.

Never completely remove the leveling legs or the range will not be secured to the anti-tip device properly.

STATE OF CALIFORNIA PROPOSITION 65 WARNING

The California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act requires the Governor of California to publish a list of substances known to the state to cause cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive harm, and requires businesses to warn customers of potential exposure to such substances.

WARNING

  ■ A CAUTION Do not store items of interest to children in cabinets above an oven - children climbing on the oven to reach items could be seriously injured.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING

WARNING

GENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS (CONT.)

■ Never block the vents (air openings) of the range. They provide the air inlets and outlets that are necessary for the range to operate properly with correct combustion. Air openings are located at the rear of the cooktop, at the top and bottom of the oven door, and at the bottom of the range under the warming drawer, lower oven drawer or kick panel.
■ Use only dry pot holders—moist or damp pot holders on hot surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do not let pot holders touch surface burners, burner grate, or oven heating element. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth in place of pot holders.
- Do not touch the heating elements or the interior surface of the oven. These surfaces may be hot enough to burn even though they are dark in color. During and after use, do not touch, or let clothing or other flammable materials contact any

interior area of the oven; allow sufficient time for cooling first. Other surfaces of the appliance may become hot enough to cause burns. Potentially hot surfaces include the burners, grates, oven vent opening, surfaces near the opening, and crevices around the oven door.
■ Do not heat unopened food containers. Pressure could build up and the container could burst, causing an injury.
■ Cook food thoroughly to help protect against foodborne illness. Minimum safe food temperature recommendations can be found at www.IsItDoneYet.gov and www.fsis.usda.gov. Use a food thermometer to take food temperatures and check several locations.
■ Do not allow anyone to climb, stand or hang on the oven door, drawer or cooktop. They could damage the range or tip it over causing severe injury or death.

WARNING

KEEP FLAMMABLE MATERIALS AWAY FROM THE OVEN

Failure to do so may result in fire or personal injury.

- Do not store or use flammable materials in an oven or near the cooktop, including paper, plastic, pot holders, linens, wall coverings, curtains, drapes and gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids.

■ Never wear loose-fitting or hanging garments while using the appliance. These garments may ignite if they contact hot surfaces causing severe burns.

■ Do not let cooking grease or other flammable materials accumulate in or near the range. Grease in the oven or on the cooktop may ignite.

WARNING

IN THE EVENT OF A FIRE, TAKE THE FOLLOWING STEPS TO PREVENT INJURY AND FIRE SPREADING

• Do not use water on grease fires. Never pick up a flaming pan. Turn the controls off. Smother a flaming pan on a surface burner by covering the pan completely with a well-fitting lid, cookie sheet, or flat tray. If necessary, use a multi-purpose dry chemical or foam-type fire extinguisher.
  If there is a fire in the oven during baking, smother the fire by closing the oven door and turning the oven off or by using a multi-purpose dry chemical or foam type fire extinguisher.

If there is a fire in the oven during self-clean, turn the oven off and wait for the fire to go out. Do not force the door open. Introduction of fresh air at self-clean temperatures may lead to a burst of flame from the oven.

WARNING

COOKTOP SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

■ Never leave the surface burners unattended at medium or high heat settings. Foods, especially oily foods, may ignite resulting in fire that could spread to surrounding cabinets.
■ Never leave oil unattended while frying. If allowed to heat beyond its smoking point, oil may ignite resulting in fire that may spread to surrounding cabinets. Use a deep fat thermometer whenever possible to monitor oil temperature.
■ To avoid oil spillover and fire, use the minimum amount of oil when using a shallow pan-frying and avoid cooking frozen foods with excessive amounts of ice.
■ Use proper pan size and avoid pans that are unstable or easily tipped. Select cookware that is matched to the size of the burner. Burner flames should be adjusted so that they do not extend beyond the bottom of the pan. Excessive flame may be hazardous.
■ Always use the LITE position when igniting the top burners and make sure the burners have ignited.

■ When using glass/ceramic cookware, make sure it is suitable for cooktop service; others may break because of sudden change in temperature.
■ To minimize the possibility of burns, ignition of flammable materials and spillage, the handle of a container should be turned toward the center of the range without extending over nearby burners.
■ Do not use a wok with a round metal support ring. The ring may trap heat and block air to the burner resulting in a carbon monoxide hazard.
■ Do not attempt to lift the cooktop. Doing so may damage the gas tubing to the surface burners resulting in a gas leak and risk of fire.
■ When disabling Lock Control (on some models), make sure the surface controls are set to the OFF position. This will prevent unintended gas flow from the burners.
■ Do not use aluminum foil to cover the grates or line any part of the cooktop. Doing so may result in carbon monoxide poisoning, overheating of the cooktop surfaces, or a potential fire hazard.

WARNING

OVEN SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING

NEVER cover any slots,

holes, or passages in the oven bottom or cover an entire rack with materials such as aluminum foil or oven liners. Doing so blocks air flow through the oven and may cause carbon monoxide poisoning. Never place foil or oven liners on the oven bottom. They can trap heat causing risk of smoke or fire.

■ Stand away from the range when opening the oven door. Hot air or steam which escapes can cause burns to hands, face and/or eyes.
■ Never place cooking utensils, pizza or baking stones, or any type of foil or liner on the oven floor. These items can trap heat or melt, resulting in damage to the product and risk of shock, smoke or fire.

• Place oven racks in desired location while oven is cool. If rack must be moved while oven is hot, be careful to avoid touching hot surfaces.
  ■ Do not leave items such as paper, cooking utensils, or food in the oven when not in use. Items stored in an oven can ignite.
• Do not leave items on the cooktop near the oven vent. Items may overheat resulting in a risk of fire or burns.
  ■ Never broil with door open. Open-door broiling is not permitted due to overheating of control knobs.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING

WARNING

SELF-CLEANING OVEN SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

(on some models)

The self-cleaning feature operates the oven at temperatures high enough to burn away food soils in the oven. Follow these instructions for safe operation.

■ Do not touch oven surfaces during self-clean operation. Keep children away from the oven during self-cleaning. Failure to follow these instructions may cause burns.
■ Before operating the self-clean cycle, remove pans, shiny metal oven racks, and other utensils from the oven. Only porcelain-coated oven racks may be left in the oven.
■ Before operating the self-clean cycle, wipe grease and food soils from the oven. Excessive amount of grease may ignite leading to smoke damage to your home.

■ If the self-cleaning mode malfunctions, turn the oven off and disconnect the power supply. Have it serviced by a qualified technician.
■ Do not use oven cleaners. No commercial oven cleaner or oven liner protective coating of any kind should be used in or around any part of the oven.
- Do not clean the door gasket. The door gasket is essential for a good seal. Care should be taken not to rub, damage or move the gasket.
■ IMPORTANT: The health of some birds is extremely sensitive to the fumes given off during the self-cleaning cycle of any range. Move birds to another well-ventilated room.

WARNING

WARMING DRAWER SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

(on some models)

■ The purpose of the warming drawer is to hold hot cooked foods at serving temperature. Bacteria will grow very rapidly in food that is between 40 and 140° F. Do not put cold food in warming drawer. Do not keep food in the warming drawer for more than 2 hours. Failure to follow these instructions may result in foodborne illness.
■ Do not leave paper products, plastics, canned food, or combustible materials in the drawer. They may ignite.
■ Do not touch the heating element or the interior surface of the drawer. These surfaces may be hot enough to cause burns.

■ Use care when opening the drawer. Open the drawer a crack, and let hot air or steam escape before removing or replacing food. Hot air or steam that escapes can cause burns to hands, face, and/or eyes.
- Do not use aluminum foil to line the warming drawer. Foil is an excellent heat insulator and will trap heat beneath it. This will upset the performance of the drawer and potentially cause a fire hazard.

Removing Protective Shipping Film and Packaging Tape

NOTE: Remove all protective packing before operating the range.

Carefully grasp a corner of the protective shipping film with your fingers and slowly peel it from the appliance surface. Do not use any sharp items to remove the film. If adhesive residue remains, remove it by applying dish soap and water with a soft cloth.

In Case of a Power Failure

In the event of a power failure, the oven is inoperable and no attempt should be made to operate it. However, the surface burners may be lit with a match. Using extreme caution, hold a lit match near the ports beneath

Surface Burners

the surface burner cap, then slowly turn the knob to the LITE position. Once lit, surface burners will continue to operate normally.

Lighting a Surface Burner

WARNING

Burners should be operated only when covered by cookware. Burner flames not covered by cookware present a risk of fire or clothing ignition. Never let flames extend beyond the sides of the cookware. Failure to comply may result in serious injury.

Make sure all burners are in their correct locations and fully assembled before attempting to operate any burner.

Select a burner and find its control knob. Push the knob in and turn it to the LITE position.

You will hear a clicking noise—the sound of the electric spark igniting the burner. When one burner is turned to LITE, all burners will spark. Sparking will continue as long as the knob remains at LITE. Once gas is ignited, turn the knob to adjust the flame size.

Push the control knob in and turn it to the LITE position.

Selecting a Flame Size

Watch the flame, not the knob, as you adjust heat. When rapid heating is desired, the flame size should match the size of the cookware you are using. Flames larger than the bottom of the cookware will not heat faster and may be hazardous.

These flames are too large for the pot

Using the Surface Burners

NOTES:

• Do not operate the burner for an extended period of time without cookware on the grate. The finish on the grate may discolor or chip without cookware to absorb the heat.
  ■ Do not attempt to disassemble any burner while another burner is on. Damage to the product may occur.
  ■ Be sure the burners and grates are cool before you place your hand, a pot holder or cleaning materials on them.

Your rangetop has sealed gas burners that offer convenience, cleanability and flexibility for a wide range of cooking applications.

The smallest burner is the simmer burner. A simmer burner turned down to LO provides precise cooking performance for foods such as delicate sauces that require low heat for a long cooking time.

The extra-large burner is designed to quickly bring large amounts of liquid to a boil. Some models have a POWER BOIL ^™ setting especially designed for use with cookware with a diameter of 11 inches or larger.

Types of Surface Burners

Round Burner

Use this burner for general cooking purposes. Size cookware appropriately to the flames.

Oval Burner (on some models)

Use this burner to cook on the griddle.

Tri-Ring Burner (on some models)

Use this burner for large cookware or for simmering applications.

Dual Oval Burner (on some models)

Use this burner to cook on the griddle or with small cookware.

Surface Burners (Cont.)

Tri-Ring Burner (some models) Dual Oval Burner (some models)

For large cookware, activate all rings by setting set the burner between Hi and Med.

For small cookware or low heating applications, only activate the inner rings by setting the burner between Lo and Sim.

For small cookware, only activate the round burner.

When using a griddle, activate both the oval and round burner sections.

Top-of-Range Cookware

Aluminum: Medium-weight cookware is recommended because it heats quickly and evenly. Most foods brown evenly in an aluminum skillet. Use saucepans with tight-fitting lids when cooking with minimum amounts of water.

Stainless Steel: This metal alone has poor heating properties and is usually combined with copper, aluminum or other metals for improved heat distribution. Combination metal skillets usually work satisfactorily if they are used with medium heat or as the manufacturer recommends.

Cast-Iron: If heated slowly, most skillets will give satisfactory results.

Enamelware: Under some conditions, the enamel of some cookware may melt. Follow the 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 (saucepans, coffee and teapots). Glass conducts heat very slowly.

Heatproof Glass Ceramic: Can be used for either surface or oven cooking. It conducts heat very slowly and cools very slowly. Check the cookware manufacturer's directions to be sure it can be used on gas ranges.

Stove Top Grills

Do not use an after-market stove top grill on your gas surface burners. A stove top grill will cause incomplete combustion resulting in carbon monoxide levels above allowable standards. This could be hazardous to your health.

Pure mechanical diagram showing concentric rings with a central cross mark (no text or symbols)

Do not use stove top grills

Using a Wok

Use only a flat-bottomed wok with a diameter of 14 inches or less. Make sure the wok bottom sits flat on the grate.

Do not use a wok support ring. Placing the ring over the burner or grate may cause the burner to work improperly, resulting in carbon monoxide levels above allowable standards. This could be hazardous to your health.

Use a flat-bottomed wok.

Griddle (on some models)

WARNING

Fire Hazard

■ Use care when cooking greasy foods. Spilled grease may result in fire.
■ Never place any items on the griddle when it is not in use. Heat from surrounding burners can heat the griddle and may result in fire.
■ Place and remove the griddle only when griddle is cool and all surface burners are turned OFF.

Positioning Your Griddle

The reversible cast-iron griddle (on some models) and the nonstick aluminum griddle (on some models) can only be used over the center burner of the rangetop. To position the griddle, remove the center grate (if present), and replace it with the griddle. Do not turn on the center burner until you are certain the griddle has been positioned correctly.

Preheating Your Griddle

If your center burner is a single oval burner, preheat your griddle for 2-5 minutes on Hi before placing food on the griddle. If your center burner is a dual oval burner, preheat your griddle for 5-10 minutes on Hi before placing food on the griddle. Once the griddle is preheated, turn the heat down to the cook setting outlined in the table corresponding to your griddle. To determine the type of burner you have, see the Types of Surface Burners section.

Using Your Reversible Cast-Iron Griddle (on some models)

The ribbed side of the reversible griddle can be used for food normally grilled.

Your griddle provides an extra-large cooking surface for meats, pancakes and other foods usually prepared in a skillet. Before first use, rinse with hot water and dry thoroughly. Prepare the surface with cooking spray or vegetable oil.

Griddle Precautions:

■ Do not place the griddle in a microwave oven.
■ Do not clean your griddle in the dishwasher.
If something has spilled under the griddle, it should be cleaned up as soon as possible to prevent "baked on" food soil.

- Do not allow grease to accumulate under the griddle as it can be a fire hazard. Clean under the griddle with hot, soapy water as soon as it is cool.

Using Your Nonstick Aluminum Griddle (on some models)

Your griddle provides an extra-large cooking surface for meats, pancakes, and other foods usually prepared in a skillet. Before first use, rinse with hot water and dry thoroughly.

Griddle Precautions:

• Do not use oil on the griddle for extended lengths of time. Permanent staining and/or craze lines on the surface could result.
  ■ Do not overheat the griddle. Leaving the griddle burner on at Hi for an extended amount of time without food can damage the nonstick coating.
  ■ Use only plastic, nylon, wooden utensils, or SilverStone® kitchen tools to prevent marring of the coating.
  ■ Never use knives or cut food on the griddle.
  ■ Do not use metal utensils with sharp points or rough, sharp edges which might damage the griddle surface.
  ■ Store carefully to prevent scratching.
  ■ Do not place the griddle in a microwave oven.
  If something has spilled under the griddle, it should be cleaned up as soon as possible to prevent "baked on" food soil.
• Do not allow grease to accumulate under the griddle as it can be a fire hazard. Clean under the griddle with hot, soapy water as soon as it is cool.
  ■ Do not clean your griddle in the dishwasher.
  ■ Do not clean the griddle in the self-cleaning oven.

Doing so will damage the nonstick coating. For instructions on how to clean the griddle, see the Cleaning the Cooktop section of this manual.

Sabbath Mode Power Outage Note

If a power outage occurs while the oven is in Sabbath Mode, the unit will return to Sabbath Mode when power is restored, however the oven will return to the off state even if it was in the middle of a bake cycle when the power outage occurred.

Cookware Guidelines

The material, finish, and size of cookware affect baking performance.

Dark, coated and dull pans absorb heat more readily than light, shiny pans. Pans that absorb heat more readily can result in a browner, crisper and thicker crust. If using dark and coated cookware check food earlier than the minimum cook time. If undesirable results are obtained with this type of cookware consider reducing oven temperature by 25^ F next time.

■ Shiny pans can produce more evenly cooked baked goods such as cakes and cookies.
■ Glass and ceramic pans heat slowly but retain heat well. These types of pans work well for dishes such as pies and custards.
■ Air insulated pans heat slowly and can reduce bottom browning.
- Keep cookware clean to promote even heating.

Cooking Modes

Your new oven has a variety of cooking modes to help you get the best results. These modes are described below. Refer to the Cooking Guide section for recommendations for specific foods. Remember, your new oven may perform differently than the oven it is replacing.

Bake

The bake mode is for baking and roasting. This mode uses heat primarily from the lower burner but also from the upper burner to cook food. When preparing baked goods such as cakes, cookies and pastries, always preheat the oven first. Follow recipe recommendations for food placement. If no guidelines are provided, center food in the oven. To use this mode press the Bake pad, enter a temperature with the number pads, and then press Start.

Warm/Warming Drawer (on some models)

Warm mode is designed to keep hot foods hot. Cover foods that need to remain moist and do not cover foods that should be crisp. Preheating is not required. Do not use warm to heat cold food other than crisping crackers, chips or dry cereal. It is also recommended that food not be kept warm for more than 2 hours. See the Oven Controls section for more information.

Broiling Modes

Always broil with the oven door and drawer closed. Monitor food closely while broiling. Use caution when broiling on the upper rack positions as placing food closer to the broil burner increases smoking, spattering and the possibility of fats igniting.

Try broiling foods that you would normally grill. Adjust rack positions to adjust the intensity of the heat to the food. Place foods closer to the broil burner when a seared surface and rare interior is desired. Thicker foods and foods that need to be cooked through should be broiled on a lower rack position or by using the Broil Lo mode.

Broil Hi

The Broil Hi mode uses intense heat from the upper burner to sear foods. Use Broil Hi for thinner cuts of meat and/or foods you prefer less done on the interior. To use this mode press the Broil pad once and then press Start. It is not necessary to preheat when using this mode.

Broil Lo

The Broil Lo mode uses less intense heat from the upper burner to cook food thoroughly while also browning the surface. Use Broil Lo for thicker cuts of meat and/or foods that you would like cooked all the way through. To use this mode press the Broil pad twice and then press Start. It is not necessary to preheat when using this mode.

Convection Bake

The Convection Bake mode is intended for baking on multiple racks at the same time. This mode uses air movement from the convection fan to enhance cooking evenness. Your oven is equipped with Auto Recipe Conversion, so it is not necessary to adjust the temperature when using this mode. To use this mode press the Conv Bake pad, enter a temperature with number pads, and then press Start. Always preheat when using this mode.

Convection Roast

The Convection Roast mode is intended for roasting whole cuts of meat on a single rack. This mode uses heat from the lower bake burner along with air movement to improve browning and reduce cooking time. It is not necessary to convert temperature. Check food earlier than the recipe suggested time when using this mode, or use the probe (on some models). To use this mode press the Conv Roast pad, enter a temperature with the number pads, and then press Start. It is not necessary to preheat when using this mode.

Rack Positions

Your oven has six rack positions in the main oven. Recommended rack positions for various types of foods are provided in the Cooking Guide. Adjusting the rack position is one way to impact cooking results. For example, if you would prefer darker tops on cakes, muffins or cookies, try moving food one rack position higher. If you find foods are too brown on top, try moving them down next time.

When baking with multiple pans and on multiple racks, ensure there is sufficient space between pans to allow air to flow. This may improve cooking evenness.

Removing and Replacing Flat Racks

When placing and removing cookware, pull the rack out to the bump (stop position) on the rack support.

To remove a rack, pull it toward you until it reaches the stop position, tilt up the front of the rack and pull it out.

To replace a rack, place the curved end of the rack onto the rack supports. Tilt up the front of the rack and push the rack in until it stops. Then lay the rack flat and push it in until it is all the way into the oven.

Racks may become difficult to slide, especially after a self-clean cycle. To improve sliding conditions, use a soft cloth or paper towel to rub vegetable oil on the left and right edges of the racks and/or rack supports.

NOTE: Remove unused racks when using the oven for faster preheat, improved efficiency, and optimal cooking performance.

Extension Racks (on some models)

Extension racks have a frame that locks into the rack supports on both sides. Once the frame is locked into place, always use the upper front rail to pull the rack out to its full extension position when placing or removing cookware.

If extension racks are difficult to extend, lubricate the racks with the graphite lubricant provided with your oven. Remove the rack from the oven (see Extension Rack Removal), remove debris in the slide tracks with a paper towel, shake the graphite lubricant, and place 4 small drops on the two bottom tracks of the left and right sides. Open and close the rack several times to distribute the lubricant.

See the Assistance/Accessories section for instructions on ordering additional racks and graphite lubricant.

Oven Air Vents

Never 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.

Air openings are located at the rear of the cooktop, at the top and bottom of the oven door, and at the bottom of the range.

Probe

WARNING

Consuming undercooked food can result in foodborne illness. Use probing instructions to ensure all portions of the food reach minimum safe cooking mendations for minimum safe food temperatures can be found at www.IsltDoneYet.gov.

according to the following instructions to ensure all portions of the food reach minimum safe cooking temperatures. Recommendations for minimum safe food temperatures can be found at www.foodsafety.gov or www.lsItDoneYet.gov.

Internal food temperature is frequently used as an indicator of doneness, especially for roasts and poultry. The Probe mode monitors the internal food temperature and turns the oven off when the internal food temperature reaches the programmed temperature.

Always check the temperature at multiple locations in the food with a food thermometer after cooking to ensure that all portions of the food have reached the minimum safe internal temperature for that food.

Proper Probe Placement

After preparing the meat and placing it on the cooking pan follow these instructions for proper probe placement.

■ Insert the probe into the food, so that the tip of the probe will rest in the center of the thickest part of the food. For best performance the probe should be fully inserted into the food. If the probe is not located properly, it may not accurately measure the temperature of the coolest portion of the food. Some foods, particularly small items, are not well suited for cooking with the probe due to their shape or size.
■ The probe should not touch bone, fat or gristle.
■ For whole poultry insert the probe into the thickest part of the breast.
■ For boneless roasts, insert the probe into the center of the roast.
■ For bone-in ham or lamb, insert the probe into the center of the lowest large muscle or joint.
■ For casseroles or dishes such as meatloaf, insert the probe into the center of the dish.
■ For fish, insert the probe from just above the gill into the meatiest area, parallel to the backbone.

Probe Usage

To use the probe with preheating:

1. Press the desired cook mode (Bake, Convection Bake, or Convection Roast) pad and enter the desired cooking temperature with the number pads.
2. Insert the probe into the food (see Proper Probe Placement).

Cleaning the Oven

Be sure all controls are off and all surfaces are cool before cleaning any part of the oven.

Oven Interior

The interior of your new oven can be cleaned manually or by using the Steam Clean or Self Clean modes (on some models).

Spillage of marinades, fruit juices, tomato sauces and basting liquids containing acids may cause discoloration and should be wiped up as soon as hot surfaces cool, then clean and rinse.

Manual Cleaning

Do not use oven cleaners, abrasive cleaners, strong liquid cleansers, steel wool, scouring pads or cleaning powders on the interior of the oven. Clean with mild soap and water or 50/50 solution of vinegar and water. Rinse with clean water and dry with a soft cloth. When cleaning surfaces, make sure that they are at room temperature and not in direct sunlight.

Steam Clean Mode (on some models)

The Steam Clean feature is for cleaning light soil from your oven at a lower temperature than Self Clean.

To use the Steam Clean feature:

1. Start with the oven at room temperature.
2. Wipe excess grease and soils from the oven.
3. Pour one cup of water onto the bottom of the oven.
4. Close the door.
5. Press the Steam Clean pad and then press Start.

You cannot open the door during the 30 minute Steam Clean cycle. At the end of the Steam Clean cycle, soak up the remaining water, and wipe the moisture-softened soil from the oven walls and door.

Self Clean Mode (on some models)

Read Self-Cleaning Oven Safety Instructions at the beginning of this manual before using the Self Clean Mode. Self Clean uses very high temperatures to clean the oven interior. For a moderately soiled oven, run a 3 hour self-clean cycle. For a heavily soiled oven, run a 5 hour self-clean cycle. Only self-clean (black) racks and grates may remain in the oven during the self-clean cycle. All other items, including nickel plated (silver) racks, should be removed. If nickel plated (silver) racks are left in the oven during a self-clean cycle, the racks will tarnish. If either type of rack is left in the oven during a self-clean cycle, the rack may become difficult to slide. See the Oven Racks section for instructions on how to improve.

IMPORTANT: The health of some birds is extremely sensitive to the fumes given off during the self-cleaning cycle of any range. Move birds to another well-ventilated room.

To use the Self Clean feature:

1. Start with the oven at room temperature.
2. Wipe excess grease and soils from the oven and interior door.
3. Remove all items other than self-clean (black) racks and grates, if desired. See Cleaning the Cooktop to determine if your grates may be self-cleaned and for important details regarding grate placement.
4. Close the door.
5. Press the Self Clean pad, set a time between 3 and 5 hours, and then press Start.

You cannot open the door during the self-clean cycle. The door will remain locked after the self-clean cycle until the oven cools below the unlocking temperature. At the end of the self-clean cycle, allow the oven to cool and wipe any ash out of the oven.

Oven Exterior

Do not use oven cleaners, abrasive cleansers, strong liquid cleansers, steel wool, plastic scouring pads or cleaning powders on the interior or exterior of the oven. Clean with a mild soap and water or a 50/50 solution of vinegar and water. Rinse with clean water and dry with a soft cloth. When cleaning surfaces, make sure that they

are at room temperature and not in direct sunlight.

Spillage of marinades, fruit juices, tomato sauces and basting liquids containing acids may cause discoloration and should be wiped up as soon as hot surfaces cool, then clean and rinse.

Oven Racks

All oven racks may be cleaned by hand with an abrasive cleaner or steel wool. Self-clean (black) oven racks may remain in the oven during the self-clean cycle. Nickel-plated (silver) racks should not remain in the oven during the self clean cycle. Doing so will tarnish the racks. If either type of rack is left in the oven during a self-clean cycle, the rack may become difficult to slide.

After cleaning the racks, use a soft cloth or paper towel to rub a small amount of vegetable oil on the left and right edges of the rack. This will ensure the racks are easy to slide in and out of the oven

Control Panel and Knobs

Wipe the control panel after each use of the oven with a damp cloth. For cleaning, use mild soap and water or a 50/50 solution of vinegar and water. Rinse with clean water. Polish dry with a soft cloth.

Do not use abrasive cleansers, strong liquid cleansers, plastic scouring pads or oven cleaners on the control panel—they will damage the finish.

Stainless Steel Surfaces (on some models)

Do not use a steel wool pad; it will scratch the surface. To clean the stainless steel surface, use warm sudsy water or a stainless steel cleaner or polish. Always wipe the surface in the direction of the grain. Follow the cleaner instructions for cleaning the stainless steel surface.

Cleaners with oxalic acid such as Bar Keepers Friend Soft Cleanser™ will remove surface rust, tarnish and small blemishes. Use only a liquid cleanser free of grit and rub in the direction of the brush lines with a damp, soft sponge.

To inquire about purchasing cleaning products including stainless steel appliance cleaner or polish, read the Assistance/Accessories sections at the beginning of this manual.

For easier cleaning, the control knobs may be removed by pulling them directly outwards once the knobs are in the OFF position. Do not pull knobs up or down or hang objects on them. This can damage the gas valve shaft. When removing the tri-ring (on some models) and the dual-oval (on some models) burner knobs, remember their location. While all other knobs are interchangeable, these knobs must be placed in the same location after cleaning. See the Surface Burner section for a detailed view of these knobs. The knobs can be washed by hand with soap and water or in a dishwasher.

To replace knobs after cleaning, align the hole on the knob backside with the gas valve shaft and push inward until the knob is securely fastened. All knobs are interchangeable

Cleaning the Surface Burners (Cont.)

Cleaning the Burner Caps

Wash burner caps in hot, soapy water and rinse with clean water. You may scour with a plastic scouring pad to remove burned-on food particles. The round burner caps may also be cleaned in your dishwasher.

Cleaning the Burner Heads

Wash the burner heads routinely, especially after bad spillovers which could clog the burner openings. Lift burners off when cool. Wash with hot, soapy water. Rinse with clean water. For more stubborn stains, use a brush with plastic bristles.

NOTE: Do not use steel wool or scouring pads to clean the burner parts as these may clog the openings. Never wash burner heads in your dishwasher as dishwasher. Doing so may cause them to discolor.

The ports in the burner heads must be kept clean at all times for an even, unhampered flame.

Clogged or dirty burner ports or electrodes will not allow the burner to operate properly.

Round hole in burner head must be kept clear

For proper ignition, make sure the small hole in the notch that fits over the electrode is kept open. A sewing needle or wire twist-tie works well to unclog it.

Replacing Surface Burners

Before replacing the burner caps, heads and oval head/cap assembly, shake out excess water and allow them to dry thoroughly.

Replace burner heads in the correct locations according to size. Ensure each cap is properly seated on the burner head, as pictured below.

Burner cap is NOT properly seated.

Burner cap is NOT properly seated.

⚠️ CAUTION Do not operate the cooktop without all burner parts and grates in place.

Any spill on or around an electrode must be carefully cleaned. Avoid hitting the electrode with anything hard or it could be damaged.

The electrode of the spark igniter is exposed when the burner head is removed. When one burner is turned to LITE, all the burners spark. Do not attempt to disassemble or clean around any burner while another burner is on.

Cleaning the Cooktop (Cont.)

Burner Grates

Manual Cleaning

Grates should be washed in hot, soapy water and rinsed with clean water. To soften burned-on food, place grates in a solution containing 14 -cup of household ammonia for several hours. Afterward, scrub grates with a plastic scouring pad soaked in hot, soapy water. Rinse well and dry.

Self Clean Mode (on some models)

If your grates do not have rubber bumpers on their bottom surface, they may be cleaned in the oven using the self-clean cycle. Do not attempt to clean your grates in the oven if your grates have rubber bumpers. Doing so will destroy the rubber bumpers and may affect the function of your surface burners.

Porcelain-coated grates may gradually dull if continually exposed to self-clean temperatures.

If your oven is equipped with self-clean (black) racks, it is recommended to follow the instructions for placing grates on racks. If your oven is equipped with nickel-plated (silver) racks, it is recommended to follow the instructions for placing grates on the oven bottom.

Nickel-plated racks should not remain in the oven during the self clean cycle. Doing so will tarnish the racks. If either type of rack is left in the oven during a self-clean cycle, the rack may become difficult to slide.

NOTE: When placing or removing grates from the oven, do not slide the grates on the racks or oven bottom. Doing so could damage the enamel on the racks or oven bottom.

To self-clean your grates on self-clean racks:

1. Insert racks in positions 1, 3, and 5 or positions 2 and 4.
2. Gently place one grate on each rack.

Grate Support Bumpers (on some models)

If any of the rubber grate support bumpers in the cooktop are missing or damaged, replacement parts can be obtained by calling 1.800.GE.CARES.

To insert the new bumpers, simply place the cone-shaped end of the bumper into the hole in the cooktop and push down while gently twisting the bumper.

Griddles (on some models)

Nonstick Aluminum Griddle: Avoid scraping the griddle surface with metal utensils. Wash your griddle with dish soap and hot water. If necessary, scrub with a non-abrasive plastic pad.

Reversible Cast-Iron: Clean your reversible cast-iron griddle with a stiff brush and hot water. Using soap is not recommended, and harsh detergents should never be used as they will remove the seasoning. Rinse with hot water and dry thoroughly. After rinsing, preseason the griddle by applying a light coat of cooking oil to the griddle surface. Wipe off excess oil with a paper towel.

Store in a cool, dry place.

To self clean your grates on the oven bottom:

1. Remove all oven racks.
2. Gently place one grate on the center of the oven bottom with the grate oriented in the upright position. Stack remaining grate(s) as shown below. Do not place or stack grates in any other configuration.

Technical line drawing of a mechanical component with no visible text or symbols

Once the grates are placed in the oven, operate the self-clean cycle per the instruction in the Cleaning the Oven section.

NOTE: Use caution when removing the grates from the oven after the self-clean cycle has ended. The grates may still be hot.

Once the self-clean cycle is complete, the grates may carefully be removed. You may notice a white residue on the grates. Wipe it off with a damp sponge. If white spots persist, wet the sponge with a 50/50 solution of vinegar and water and wipe the grates again.

When replacing the grates on the cooktop, be sure to locate them correctly. Grates should fit securely into the cooktop.

Grate Support Bumpers

Griddle Precautions:

If something has spilled under the griddle, it should be cleaned up as soon as possible to prevent the spill from getting baked onto the cooktop.
- Do not allow grease to accumulate under the griddle as it can be a fire hazard. Clean under the griddle with hot, soapy water as soon as it is cool.
■ Do not wash your griddle in the dishwasher.
■ Do not clean the griddle in the self-cleaning oven.

Cleaning the Oven Door

Cleaning the Door Interior

Do not allow excess water to run into any holes or slots in the door.

Wipe dish soap over any baked-on spatters on the glass. Use a single sided safety razor blade to clean it off. Then wipe over the glass with a soapy cloth to remove any residue and dry off.

The area outside the gasket can be cleaned with a soap-filled plastic scouring pad. Do not rub or clean the door gasket - it has an extremely low resistance to abrasion.

If you notice the gasket becoming worn, frayed or damaged in any way or if it has become displaced on the door, you should have it replaced.

Cleaning the Door Exterior

If a stain on the door vent trim is persistent, use a mild abrasive cleaner and a sponge-scrubber for best results. Do not use this method on any other surface.

Stainless Steel Surfaces (on some models)

Do not use a steel wool pad; it will scratch the surface. To clean the stainless steel surface, use warm sudsy water or a stainless steel cleaner or polish. Always wipe the surface in the direction of the grain. Follow the cleaner instructions for cleaning the stainless steel surface.

To inquire about purchasing cleaning products including stainless steel appliance cleaner or polish, read the Assistance/Accessories sections at the beginning of this manual.

Removable Storage Drawer (on some models)

The storage drawer is a good place to store cookware and bakeware. Do not store plastics or flammable material in the drawer.

The storage drawer may be removed for cleaning under the range. Clean the storage drawer with a damp cloth or sponge. Never use harsh abrasives or scouring pads.

Your storage drawer may have plastic slides (shown to the right) or metal rails. Follow the respective removal and replacement instructions for your model's configuration.

Removing the Storage Drawer:

1. Pull drawer straight out until it stops.
2. Continue to pull the drawer until it is detached from the oven.

Replacing the Storage Drawer:

1. Rest the left drawer rail around the inner left rail guide and slide it in slightly.
