The oven vent

Hot air and moisture escape from the oven

through a vent in the center rear of the

cooktop. The vent lets air circulate properly.

Be careful not to block the vent, or you will

get poor baking/roasting results.

NOTE: Never store plastics, paper, or other

items that could melt or burn near the oven

vent, or any of the surface burners.

Parts and Features

The oven door vent

The oven door

Replacing the oven door:

1. Holding the door by the handle, place

the top of the door under the cooktop

overhang and use your leg to apply

pressure to slide hinges into the slots as

far as possible.

2. Open door to the broil position or slightly

past it.

3. Using the side of your leg, apply

pressure to the bottom of the door front.

Lift the door slightly while applying

pressure to push, until the hinges have

gone in fully.

Removing the oven door:

1. Open the door to the Broil Stop position

(open about 4" [10 cm]).

2. Lift door slightly and pull out and back until

hinges come out to the catch position.

3. Push door down and pull straight out to

remove door completely.

Hot air and moisture may escape from the

door vent during certain oven modes. Some

condensation may be observed occasional-

ly. This will not affect cooking performances.

The storage drawer

You can remove the storage drawer to make it easier to clean under the range. Use care

when handling the drawer.

Removing the storage drawer:

1. Empty drawer of any pots and pans

before removing drawer. Use recessed

area on top edge of drawer to pull draw-

er straight out to the first stop. Lift front

and pull out to the second stop.

2. Lift back slightly and slide drawer all the

way out.

Parts and Features

Replacing the storage drawer:

1. Fit ends of drawer slide rails into the

drawer guides on both sides of opening.

Positioning the pan over the bake burner

To position the pan over the bake shield, the

two guides on the pan should be placed over

the notches on the shield. The position is

important to maintain an even heat in the

oven.

9753310Av15(c70) 12/4/98 10:35 AM Page 8

Using the surface burners

Your cooktop has sealed gas burners with

an auto-reignition system. The sealed burn-

ers spread the heat evenly across the bot-

tom of the cookware and provide infinite

heat control. The auto-reignition system

senses when a burner flame has gone out

and will automatically reignite that burner.

IMPORTANT: Your cooktop is factory-set

for use with Natural Gas. If you wish to

use L.P. gas, an L.P. Gas Conversion Kit

is included with your new range. See the

appropriate section of the Installation

Instructions for details on making this

conversion.

When to use the right rear

and left front burners:

Use these burners for cooking large quanti-

ties of food, deep-fat frying, or cooking with

large cookware.

When to use the left rear and

right front burners:

Use these burners for simmering or for

cooking smaller quantities of food requiring

small cookware.

Using and Caring for Your Cooktop

wWARNING

Fire Hazard

Do not let the burner flame extend

beyond the edge of the pan.

Turn off all controls when not

cooking.

Failure to follow these instructions

can result in death or fire.

Using the surface burners:

Control knobs

1. Grasp the control knob.

2. Push down and turn to HI. The electric

spark ignitor will ignite the gas flowing into

the burner. When you hear a clicking

sound, you know that the ignitors are

working. Gas is flowing as long as knob is

not set at OFF.

3. When the burner is lit, turn the control

knob to the desired flame setting. (See the

guide under “Burner heat settings” later in

this section.) You can turn the knobs to

any of the marked settings. The ignitor will

turn off and the clicking will stop when the

burner ignites.

NOTES:

•The ignitors may click a number of times

before burner lights. This is normal.

•All four burner ignitors will spark

regardless of which burner you are using.

•Visually check that the burner has lit. If the

burner does not ignite, listen for the clicking

sound. If you do not hear the ignitor click,

TURN THE BURNER OFF. Check that the

service cord is placed firmly in the wall

receptacle. Check for a tripped circuit

breaker or blown fuse.

Check that the control knob is pressed

completely down on valve shaft. If the spark

ignitor still fails to operate, call your

nearest designated service outlet.

Proper grounding and polarity are

necessary for correct operation of the electric

ignition system. If the wall receptacle does

not provide correct polarity, the ignitor will

become grounded and click every once in

a while, even after the burner has ignited.

A qualified electrician should check the wall

receptacle to see if it is wired with correct

polarity.

Burner heat settings

Use correct burner heat settings (see chart

later in this section). If the heat setting is too

high, it can:

•Char bacon and cause curling.

•Make eggs tough and crisp at the edges.

•Toughen liver, fish, and seafood.

•Scorch delicate sauces and custards.

•Cause a boilover.

OFF

REAR

Until you get used to the settings, use

the following as a guide.

SETTING

HI • To start food cooking.

• To bring liquid to a boil.

Between

MED and

• To hold a rapid boil.

• To quickly brown or

sear meat.

MED • To maintain a slow boil.

• To fry poultry or meat.

• To make pudding, sauce,

or gravy.

Between

MED and

• To stew or steam food.

LO • To simmer food.

• To keep food warm.

RECOMMENDED USE

• To melt chocolate or butter.
