Plastic items on the cooktop may melt
if left too close to the vent.
Vent appearance and location vary.
The oven has 5 rack positions.
It also has a special low rack position (R)
for extra large items, such as a large
turkey.
To avoid possible burns, place the racks in the desired position before you turn the oven on.
Oven Control
Your oven is controlled by a single
OVEN
CONTROL
knob.
It will normally take 30–90 seconds before
the flame comes on. After the oven reaches
the selected temperature, the oven burner
cycles—off completely, then on with a
full flame—to maintain the selected
temperature.
Using the oven.
Before You Begin…
The racks have stop-locks, so that when
placed correctly on the rack supports
(A through E), they will stop before
coming completely out, and will not tilt.
When placing and removing cookware,
pull the rack out to the bump on the
rack support.
To remove a rack,
pull it toward you, tilt the
front end up and pull it out.
To replace,
place the end of the rack
(stop-locks) on the support, tilt up the
front and push the rack in.
NOTE:
The rack is not designed to slide out at
the special low rack (R) position.
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.
■
Handles of pots and pans on the cooktop
may become hot if left too close to the vent.
■
Do not leave plastic or flammable items on
the cooktop—they may melt or ignite if left
too close to the vent.
■
Do not leave closed containers on the
cooktop. The pressure in closed containers
may increase, which may cause them to
burst.
■
Metal items will become very hot if they are
left on the cooktop, and could cause burns.
Power Outage
(electric ignition models)
CAUTION:
Do not make any
attempt 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. This is
because the flow of gas is automatically
stopped and will not resume when power
is restored until the glow bar has reached
operating temperature.
Oven Light
(on some models)
Use the switch on the
lower control panel
to
turn the light on or off.
