TURNING LP OVEN OFF
• Turn all knobs to OFF position. Turn LP tank
OFF by turning hand-wheel clockwise to a
full stop.
HOSE CHECK
• Before each use, check to see if hoses
are cut or worn. Replace damaged hose
assembly before using appliance. Use
only valve/ hose / regulator specified by
manufacturer. See product sheet for hose
& regulator information.
CLEANING THE BURNER
NOTE:
Spiders and small insects can spin
webs and build nests inside the burner. This
especially occurs in late summer and fall
before frost when spiders are most active.
These nests can obstruct gas flow and cause
a fire in and around the burner and orifice.
Such a fire can cause operator injury and
serious damage to the appliance. To help
prevent a blockage and ensure full heat
output, clean and inspect burner tube often
(once or twice a month).
NOTE:
Water or
air pressure will not normally clear a spider
web.
STEPS FOR CLEANING THE BURNER:
1. Remove burner assembly from oven.
2. Look inside the burner tube for nests,
webs, or mud.
3. To remove the above obstructions, use an
accessory flexible venturi brush or bend a
small hook on one end of a long flexible
wire or use an air hose.
4. Inspect and clean the burner if needed.
5. When assembling the burner back to the
stove, the proper location of the burner
with respect to the orifice is important.
The burner tube must be located over the
brass orifice fitting.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Correct care and maintenance will keep
your appliance operating smoothly. Clean
regularly as determined by the amount of
use. NOTE: Clean the entire appliance each
year and tighten all hardware on a regular
basis (1-2 times a year or more depending
on usage). Cleaning should be done where
detergents won’t harm patio, lawn, or the
like. Keep appliance area clear and free
from combustible materials, gasoline and
other flammable vapors and liquids. Keep
the ventilation opening(s) of the cylinder
enclosure free and clear from debris.
SUGGESTED CLEANING MATERIALS
• Mild dish washing liquid detergent
• Wire brush
• Nylon cleaning pad
• Hot water
• Paper clip

LP cylinder. DO NOT clean any
part in a self-cleaning oven.
The extreme heat will damage
the finish.
burners that would emit excess gas.
• COOKING SURFACES, POTS AND PANS:
Clean the cooking surface with soapy
water and a nylon cleaning pad.
• After appliance has cooled, wipe areas
where paint and finish have burned off to
minimize rusting.
TIPS AND TRICKS
1. As with any oven, the temperature
may vary throughout the oven. Some
recipes may need to be adjusted for the
temperature characteristics of this oven.
Depending on the size and position of the
pan being used, the temperature of the
oven may be higher or lower than shown
on the thermometer. Adjust cooking
times as needed.
2. When baking cakes, cookies, rolls, or
other baked goods, place the food on the
highest rack position possible.
3. Use a heavy aluminum or cast iron pan
for best results.
4. If temperature gets too hot, crack the
door to allow heat to escape.
5. If oven door is difficult to open and close
apply cooking oil to the tabs on the top
of the door.
6. Using smaller pans that allow the heat to
move throughout the oven will improve
cooking performance.
7. Rotating the pan during the cooking
process will help to cook the food evenly.
