11. The flame of the open-top burner should be adjusted to just cover
the bottom of the pan or pot. Excessive burner setting may cause
scorching of adjacent countertop surfaces, as well as the outside of
the utensil. This is based on safety considerations.
12. Use dry pot holders. Moist or damp pot holders on hot surfaces may
result in burns from steam. Do not let potholder touch hot surface
areas. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth.
13. To reduce the risk of burns, ignition of flammable materials, and
spillage due to unintentional contact with the utensil, the handle of a
utensil should be positioned so that it is turned inward toward the
center of the range, and so that it does not extend over adjacent
burners.
14. Surface areas near burners may become hot enough to cause burns.
During and after use, do not touch areas near burners until they have
had sufficient time to cool.
15. Once the unit is installed as outlined in the Installation Instructions, it
is important that the fresh air supply is not obstructed. The use of a
gas cooking appliance results in the production of heat and moisture
in the room in which it is installed. Ensure that the kitchen is well-
ventilated. Keep natural venting holes open or install a mechanical
ventilation device.
Important Safety Instructions
WARNING
To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, injury to persons, or damage
when using the oven, follow basic precautions, including the following:
1. Your unit should be installed by a qualified technician. The appliance
must be installed and electrically grounded according to local codes.
Have this technician show the the location of the gas shut-off valve
on the range so you know where and how to turn off the gas if
necessary.
2. Do not attempt to repair or replace an part of this appliance unless
specifically recommended in this manual. All servicing should be
referred to a qualified technician. Warranty service must be
performed by an authorized service agency.
3. The “push-to-turn” knobs of this range are designed to be child-safe.
However, children should not be left alone in the kitchen while the
range is in use. Do not store items of interest to children over the
:
unit. CAUTION Children climbing to reach items could be seriously
injured.
4. GREASE is flammable and should be handled carefully. Do not use
water on grease fires. Never pick up a flaming pan. Smother flaming
pan by covering utensil completely with well-fitting lid, cookie sheet
or flat tray. Flaming grease outside of utensil can be extinguished
with baking soda or, if available, a multipurpose dry chemical or foam
type extinguisher.
5. Never leave the surface area unattended at high heat setting. Boil-
overs cause smoking and greasy spill-overs which may ignite.
6. If you are “flaming” liquor or other spirits under an exhaust, TURN
Prolonged or intensive use
of the appliance may call

remain clear.
7. Wear proper apparel. Loose-fitting or hanging garments should
never be worn while using the appliance.
8. Never use your oven for storage. This is based on safety
considerations.
9. Use proper pan size. Select utensils having flat bottoms large
enough to cover the burner. Using undersized utensils allows the
flame to come up the side of the utensil, scorching the outside of the
utensil and making cleanup harder.
10. Keep area clean and free from combustible material, gasoline, and
other flammable liquids.
17. Storage cabinet area above the unit must be 36” (91.4 cm) and
cannot project more than 13” (33.0 cm) outward from the rear wall.
Beware of potential hazards associated with retrieving items from
such cabinets when the unit is in operation.
18. Do not attempt to operate the appliance during power failure.
19. Do not heat unopened food containers; buildup of pressure may
cause the container to explode and result in injury.
20. Never sit, step, stand, or lean on any part of the oven, or injury may
result.
21. Use care when opening oven door. Let hot air or steam escape
before removing or replacing food.

22. This appliance is not connected to a combustion products evacuation
device. It shall be installed and connected in accordance with current
installation regulations giving particular attention to the relevant
requirements regarding ventilation.
23. A risk of tip-over may result if the appliance is not installed in
accordance with installation instructions including excessive loading
of the oven door or from abnormal usage.
24. Do not clean door gasket. It is essential for a good, tight seal. Care
should be taken not to rub, damage, or move the gasket.
25. No commercial oven cleaner or oven liner protective coating of any
kind should be used in or around any part of the oven.
Steel Griddle/Simmer Plate (if applicable)
The griddle is a heavy-weight, blanchard finished steel griddle that
has a USDA authorized protective coating. Before using, remove
protective coating with vinegar and water and rinse well. No additional
seasoning is needed for efficient use.
Grill (If applicable)
The grates should be removed and washed in hot soapy water,
rinsed and then replaced prior to use. Other grill parts should be
removed, dusted, and replaced, making sure that no flammable materials
have ben accidentally placed in the grill.
26. Before self-cleaning the oven, remove broiler pan, broiler grid, oven
racks, rack supports, and other utensils. Do not use your oven to
clean other parts. A fan noise should be heard sometime during the
cleaning cycle; if not, call service before self-cleaning again.
Drip Tray/Pan (If applicable - Griddle or Grill Models only)
The drip tray should be pulled out and checked for flammable
materials. Make sure to unwrap the drip pan and replace it in its proper
place under the griddle or grill.
:
27. WARNING When self-cleaning, surfaces may get hotter than usual,
therefore, children should be kept away.
Using Your Range
Cooking Utensils
Each cook has his or her own preference for the particular
cooking utensils that are most appropriate for the type cooking being
done. Any and all cooking utensils are suitable for use in the range and it
is not necessary to replace your present domestic utensils with
commercial cookware. This a matter of personal choice. As with any
cookware, yours should be in good condition and free from excessive
dents on the bottom to provide maximum performance and convenience.
NOTE: WHEN USING BIG POTS AND/OR HIGH FLAMES, IT IS
RECOMMENDED TO USE THE FRONT BURNERS. THERE IS MORE
ROOM IN THE FRONT AND POTENTIAL CLEANUP OF REAR OF
APPLIANCE DUE TO STAINING OR DISCOLORATION WILL BE
MINIMIZED.
Lighting the Burners
All burners are ignited by electric ignition. There are no open-
flame, “standing” pilots.
Surface Burners-Automatic Reignition
To light the surface burners, turn the appropriate control knob
counter clockwise to any position. This control is both a gas valve and an
electric switch. Burners will ignite at any “on” position with the
automatic reignition system. If the flame goes out for any reason, the
burners will automatically reignite if the gas is still flowing. When gas is
permitted to flow to the burners, the electric igniters start sparking. On
all surface igniters you should hear a “clicking” sound. If you do not, turn
off the control and check that the unit is plugged in and that the fuse or
circuit breaker is not blown or tripped.
Before You Use Your New Range
All products are wiped clean with solvents at the factory to remove any
visible signs of dirt, oil, and grease which may have remained from the
manufacturing process. Before starting to cook, clean the range
thoroughly with hot, soapy water
Within a few moments, enough gas will have traveled to the
burner to be able to light. When the burner lights, turn the burner control
to any position to adjust the flame size.
Setting the proper height for the desired cooking process and selected
utensil will result in superior cooking performance, while also saving time
and energy.
Oven
Before first use, wipe interior with soapy water and dry thoroughly.

Griddle/Simmer Plate
Surface Cooking Tips
Turning the thermostat counter clockwise to any “on” position
•Use low or medium flame heights when cooking in utensils that are
poor conductors of heat, such as glass, ceramic, and cast-iron.
Reduce the flame height until it covers approximately 1/3 of the
utensil diameter. This will ensure more even heating within the utensil
and reduce the likelihood of burning or scorching the food.
•Reduce the flame if it is extending beyond the bottom of the utensil.
A flame that extends along the sides of the utensil is potentially
dangerous, heats the utensil handle and kitchen instead of the food,
and wastes energy.
•Reduce the flame height to the minimum level necessary to perform
the desired cooking process. Remember that food cooks just as
quickly at a gentle boil as it does at a rolling boil. Maintaining a
higher boil than is necessary wastes energy, cooks away moisture, and
causes a loss in food flavor and nutrient level.
activates a glo-bar igniter and opens an electromechanical valve in the
system to start the gas valve. The griddle has a power “ON” light
which glows when the griddle thermostat is turned on. The light cycles
on and off with the burner.
Griddle/Simmer Plate Operation
•Turn the griddle control knob to desired temperature setting. Wait
until light cycles off for indication that the desired temperature has
been reached.
•Always turn off when not in use, or lower the heat between cooking
loads.
Cooking Tips
•The minimum utensil diameter recommended is 6”(15 cm). Utensils
as small as 4”(10 cm) is possible but not recommended.
•Wait until light cycles off for indication that the desired temperature
has been reached.
•Use liquid cooking oil, cooking sprays, or butter for eggs, pancakes,
French toast, fish and sandwiches. This will help reduce sticking.
Meats usually have enough natural oils.
TEMPERATURE SETTING GUIDELINES*
•Remove food particles with a metal spatula during cooking to make
the cleanup easier and to avoid including those particles in the food.
•Do not overheat the griddle. Turn it off when not in use, or lower
heat between cooking loads.
•After using and cleaning the griddle, the surface should be wiped with
a light film of cooking oil to protect the finish from rust and corrosion.

Grill Cooking Tips
•When grilling chicken, roasts, well done steaks or chops and thick
pieces of meat, sear on HI. Then, reduce the heat setting to prevent
excessive flare-up. This will allow the food to cook through without
burning the outside.
•After steaks, chops, or hamburgers have been allowed to sear for

•Use a metal spatula instead of tongs or a fork to turn the meat. A
spatula will not puncture the meat allowing juices to escape.
•Turn the meat over only once. Juices are lost when steaks, chops or
hamburgers are turned several times. The best time to turn the meat
is after the juices have begun to bubble to the surface.
•To test for doneness, make a small slash in the center of the meat, not
the edge. This will prevent loss of juices.
•Occasionally there may be flare-ups or flames above the grill due to
drops of fat falling onto the flame spreader. It is normal to have some
flare-up during grilling. Use a long handled spatula to move food to
another area until the flames subside.

CONVECTION BAKE
Kitchen Equivalents and Metrics
Full power heat is radiated from the bake
element in the bottom of the oven cavity
and partial power is radiated from the broil
element. Air is circulated by the motorized
fan in the rear of the oven. It provides more
even heat distribution throughout the oven
cavity for all uses. Multiple rack use is
possible for the largest baking job. When
roasting, cool air is quickly replaced - searing
meats on the outside and retaining more
juices and natural flavor on the inside with
less shrinkage.

gentle cooking such as pastries and souffles.
Full power heat is radiated from the bake
element in the bottom of the oven cavity
and partial power is radiated from the
broil element in the top. Air is circulated
with natural airflow. This is the traditional
bake setting
CONVECTION BROIL
Exactly the same as regular broiling with the
additional benefit of air circulation by the
motorized fan in the rear of the oven. The
cool air is quickly replaced-improving the
already high performance of the broil
element.
BROIL
In Maxi-Broil, heat is radiated from both
broil elements, located at the top of the
oven cavity at full power. Broiling speed
is determined by the distance between
the foods and the broil elements. The
Mini-Broil setting is designed for “slow”
broiling. Only the center broil element
operates for partial power.
CONVECTION DEHYDRATE
0
With the temperature control on 175 F (79.4
0
C), warm air is radiated from the bake
element in the bottom of the oven cavity
and is circulated by a motorized fan in the
rear of the oven. Over a period of time, the
water is removed from the food by
evaporation. Removal of water inhibits
growth of microorganisms and retards the
activity of enzymes. It is important to
remember that dehydration does not
improve the quality , so only fresh, top-
quality foods should be used.
14
15
CONVECTION DEFROST
Two-Element Baking
With temperature control off, air is
circulated by a motorized fan in the rear
of the oven. The fan accelerates natural
defrosting of the food without heat. To
avoid sickness and food waste, do not
allow defrosted food to remain in the
oven for more than two hours.
This conventional baking/roasting is particularly suitable for dishes
which require a high temperature. Many cookbooks contain recipes to
be cooked in the conventional manner. This bake setting is only
recommended for single-rack baking.
Proofing
This setting is designed for allowing yeast dough to rise at a
0

temperature between 85 F (29 C) and 100 F ( 38 C). Yeast doughs rise
0
0
or “proof” best when the temperature is between 85 F (29 C) and
0
0
100 F (38 C). To make sure the dough is warm enough, cover the bowl
loosely with plastic wrap and/or cloth towel. Turn the oven function
selector to “PROOF”. Do not turn the temperature control. Place the
bowl on the center rack of the oven and close the door. When you
think the dough has doubled in size, lightly poke 2 fingers about 1/2”
(1.3cm) into the dough. If the indentation remains, the dough has risen
enough.
SELF-CLEAN
This range features an automatic
pyrolytic self-cleaning cycle. During this
cycle, the oven reaches elevated
temperatures in order to burn off soils
and deposits. An integral smoke
eliminator reduces odors associated with
the soil burn-off. A powder ash residue
is left in the bottom of the oven after
completion of the self-clean cycle.
When oven has cooled, remove ash with
a damp sponge or cloth.
Rack Positions
Each convection oven is equipped with three tilt-proof racks, and each
convectional oven is equipped with two-tilt proof racks. All ranges
have six rack positions. Position 6 is the farthest from the oven bottom.
Position 1 is the closest to the oven bottom. The racks can be easily
removed and arranged at various levels. For best results with
conventional baking, do not use more than one rack at a time. It is
also recommended when using two racks, to bake with the racks on
position 3 and 5.
Temperature Controls
Each oven has a temperature control dial. The control can be used be
0

set, the Oven Indicator light goes out when the oven reaches that
temperature.

To Bake:
Convection Baking
1. Arrange the oven racks in the desired position BEFORE heating the
oven. If cooking on two racks at the same time, use rack positions 3
and 5.
2. Turn the Oven Function selector to desired function. Set the
Temperature Control to the desired temperature. Cooking starts
immediately. Cooking stops when the Oven Function selector is
turned to OFF.
Convection baking is the process of cooking food with a flow of heated
air circulating throughout the oven cavity. The even circulating of this
air equalizes the temperature throughout the oven cavity and
eliminates the hot and cold spots found in conventional ovens. This
feature can make a significant difference in foods prepared in the oven.
4. Place the food in the oven after the Oven Indicator light goes out.
A major benefit of convection baking is the ability to prepare food in
quantity. The uniform air circulation makes this possible . . . a feature
not possible in a standard oven. With this heating system, the air is
distributed evenly throughout the oven by the hot air fan. The heat
therefore reaches the food to be baked or roasted more quickly. With
this heating method, foods can be baked and roasted at the same time
with minimal taste transfer, even when different dishes are involved,
such as cakes, fish, or meat. The hot air system is especially
economical when thawing frozen food.
Baking Tips
•As a general rule, to convert conventional recipes to convection
0
0
recipes, reduce the temperature by 25 F (14 C) and the cooking time
by approximately 10 to 15%.
•Some recipes, especially those that are homemade, may require
adjustment and testing when converting from standard to convection
modes. If unsure how to convert a recipe, begin by preparing the
recipe in conventional bake. After achieving acceptable results, follow
the convection guidelines listed for the similar food type. If the food
is not prepared to your satisfaction during the first convection trial,
adjust only one recipe variable at a time (cooking time, rack position,
or temperature) and repeat the convection test. Continue adjusting
one recipe variable at a time until satisfactory results are achieved.
•Make sure the oven racks are in the desired positions before you turn
the oven on and for best results, always preheat the oven.
•Do not open the oven door frequently during baking. If you must
open the door, the best time is during the last quarter of the baking
time.
Pan Placement Tips
•When using large (15” x 13” [38 cm x 33 cm]) flat pans or trays that
cover most of the rack, rack positions 2 or 3 produce the best results.
•Stagger pans in opposite directions when two racks and several pans
are used. No pan should be directly above
another.
•Allow 1 1/2” to 2”
(3.8 cm to 5.1 cm)
of air space around
all sides of each pan
for even air
•Bake to shortest time suggested and check for doneness before
adding more time. For baked goods, a stainless steel knife placed in
the center of the product should come clean when done.
•Use good quality baking pans and sizes recommended in the recipe;
warped, dented, or burned pans should not be used.
circulation.
•When baking on
more than one rack,
it is recommended
to use the 3rd and
5th position for
more consistent
even baking.
•Shiny metal pans are preferred for baking items such as cakes,
cookies, and muffins because they produce light, golden crusts due to
heat being reflected by the metal.
•Glass pans may also be used for cake baking. Reduce the oven
0
0
temperature by 25 F (14 C) when using a glass pan, but bake for the
same amount of time called for in the recipe.
•Pies are best baked in pans which absorb and hold heat. Glass,
enamel, dull-finished metal, and porcelain enamel finish give pies a
golden brown crust.

Solving Baking Problems
Conventional/Convection Roasting Tips
Baking problems can occur for many reasons. Check the chart for the
causes and remedies for the most common problems. It is important
to remember that the temperature setting and cooking times you are
accustomed to using with your previous oven may vary slightly from
those required with this oven. If you find this to be true, adjust your
recipes and cooking times accordingly.
Always use the broiler pan and grid supplied with each oven. The hot
air must be allowed to circulate around the item being roasted. Do not
cover what is being roasted. Convection roasting seals in juices quickly
for a moist, tender product. Poultry will have a light, crispy skin, and
meats will be browned, not dry or burned. Cook meats and poultry
directly from the refrigerator. There is no need for meat or poultry to
stand at room temperature.

REMEDY
Preheat until oven
indicator light goes out.
Remove foil.
•Always roast meats fat side up. No basting is required when the fat
side is up. Do not add water to the pan, as this will cause a steamed
effect. Roasting is a dry-heat process.
•Poultry should be placed breast side up on the grid in the broiler pan.
Brush poultry with melted butter, margarine, or oil before and during
roasting.
•For convection roasting, do not use pans with tall sides, as this will
interfere with the circulation of heated air over the food.
•If using a cooking bag, foil tent, or other cover, use conventional
baking rather than convection.
•When using a meat thermometer, insert the probe halfway into the
center of the thickest portion of the meat. (For poultry, insert the
thermometer probe between the body and leg into the thickest part
of the inner thigh.) The tip of the probe should not touch bone, fat,
or gristle to ensure an accurate reading. Check the meat
thermometer 2/3 of the way through the recommended roasting time.
After reading the thermometer once, insert it 1/2” (1.3 cm) further into
the meat, then take a second reading. If the second reading registers
below the first, continue cooking the meat.

To use the Maxi-Broil or Mini-Broil:
Conventional Broiling
1. Arrange the oven racks in the desired position.
2. Center food on cold broiler pan and grid supplied with your oven.
Place broiler pan in oven and close the door.
3. Set the Oven Function selector to either MAXI-BROIL, MINI-BROIL,
or CONV BROIL.
Broiling is a dry-heat cooking method using direct or indirect radiant
heat. It is used for small individualized cuts such as steaks, chops, and
patties. Broiling is most successful for cuts 1-2 inches (2.54-5.1 cm)
thick. Conventional broiling is more suitable for flat pieces of meat.
Your oven contains a top broil element to provide additional flexibility
for broiling foods such as stuffed lobster and for top-browning
casseroles, meringue, etc. Broiling speed is determined by the
distance between the food and the broil element. On maxi-broil, heat
is radiated from both broil elements at full power. For “fast” broiling,
food may be as close as two inches to the broil element. “Fast”
broiling is best for meats where “rare to medium” doneness is desired.
The mini-broil setting is designed for broiling smaller amounts of food.
For “slow” broiling, allow about four inches between the top surface of
the food and the broil element. “Slow” broiling is best for chicken and
ham, in order to broil food without overbrowning it.
4. Set the Temperature Control dial to BROIL.
5. Either open the door to an open position approximately seven to
eight inches or close the door. With open-door broiling, the broil
element does not cycle on and off. With closed-door broiling, the
broil element might cycle on and off if an extended broiling time is
required. A built-in smoke “eliminator” in the top of the oven helps
reduce smoke and odors.
Broiling Tips
•Always use a broiler pan and grid for broiling. They are designed to
provide drainage of excess liquid and fat away from the cooking
surface to help prevent spatter, smoke and fire.
•Place broiler pan with food in recommended rack position.
•To keep meat from curling, slit fatty edge.
Convection Broiling
Convection broiling has the advantage of broiling food slightly quicker
than conventional. Convection broiling of meats produces better
results especially for extra thick cuts. The meat sears on the outside
and retains more juices and natural flavor inside with less shrinkage.
•Brush chicken and fish with butter several times as they broil to
prevent drying out. To prevent sticking, lightly grease broiler grid.
•Broil on first side for slightly more than half the recommended time,
season and turn. Season second side just before removing.
•Always pull rack out to stop position before turning or removing food.
•Use tongs or a spatula to turn meats. Never pierce meat with a fork
as this allows the juices to escape.
•Remove the broiler pan from the oven when you remove the food.
Drippings will bake onto the pan if it is left in the heated oven after
broiling. While pan is hot, place damp paper towel over grid. Drizzle
with liquid dishwashing detergent and pour water over grid. This will
make cleaning of the pan easier, or the broiler pan can be lined with
aluminum foil to make cleaning easier. Be sure the foil extends up the
side of the pan. Although it is not recommended, the grid can also
be covered with foil. Be sure to slit openings to conform with the
openings in the grid so melted fat can drain through to prevent
spattering, smoking or possibility of grease fire.
Rack Positions:
The broiler uses heat rays to help cook the food. Because these rays
can travel only in straight lines, the effective cooking area of the broiler
is reduced when using the higher rack positions. At high rack
positions, the rays cannot reach all corners of the broiler grid, so larger
pieces of meat might
not broil sufficiently at
the outer edges.
Position 6 is the closest
to the broiler and
position 1 is the closest
to the oven bottom.
The effective cooking
areas on the broiler grid
for each rack position
are as follows:
15%
20%
35%
45%
65%
95%

Surface Burners
Griddle/Simmer Plate
Wipe up spill-overs as soon as possible after they occur and before
they get a chance to burn in and cook solid. In the event of a spill-
over, follow these steps:
1. Allow the burner and grate to cool to a safe temperature level.
2. Lift off the burner grates, burner bowls (openburners only), and
grate support (open burners only). Wash in warm soapy water.
3. Remove the burner cap and clean per instructions belwo .
4. Wipe up any spills which remains on the sealed top surface.
5. Open burners only, remove drip pan and wash with warm soapy
water
1. After using the griddle, always remove the drip pan located below it
by pulling the drip pan toward you. The drip pan needs to be
cleaned after each use of the griddle. Cooked-off grease will drain
from the griddle through the drain tube and accumulate in the drip
pan. Wash in hot soapy water or with an antibacterial cleaner. The
drip pan needs to be cleaned after each use. If grease is permitted
to accumulate, fire hazard could occur, since the griddle burners are
directly above the pan.
2. Rub the surface of a hot griddle with unsalted solid shortening,
vegetable oil or spray it with a non-stick cooking spray. Thoroughly
wipe it with a burlap or another rough cloth to remove food
particles and other residue.
6. Replace burner cap, burner bowls, grate supports, (if applicable)
and grates.
If ports on the burners are clogged, clean with a straight pin. Do not
enlarge or distort the ports. Do not use a toothpick to clean the ports.
When replacing burner caps, carefully align the tabs underneath the
cap with the outside edge of burner. Make sure burner cap is level.
Occasionally check the burner for proper size and shape. If flames lift
off ports, are yellow, or are noisy when turned on, you may need to
clean the burners or call a qualified technician for adjustment.
3. Stubborn spots may be removed by rubbing the surface with a
rough grained nylon scrubbing pad with cooking oil. If necessary,
0
0
flush the surface of a warm griddle (200 F/93 C) with club soda and
wipe over entire surface with a paper towel. Coat lightly with
cooking oil.
4. Special griddle cleaners are commercially available which may be
used to remove heavy soil build-up. Follow manufacturer’s
directions exactly. Rinse the griddle with a vinegar and water
solution after using these cleaners, rinse with clear water, dry and
coat lightly with cooking oil. Use griddle stones only when
absolutely necessary and then with extreme caution. Wipe away
any griddle-stone dust and food particles and coat lightly with
cooking oil.
Burner Caps
The surface burner caps should be routinely removed and cleaned.
Always clean the burner caps after a spill over. Keeping the burner
caps clean will prevent improper ignition and uneven flames. To clean,
pull burner cap straight up from the burner base. Wipe off surface
burner caps with warm, soapy water and a soft cloth after each use.
5. Using hot soapy water to clean the griddle will remove the cooked-
in seasoning and will require re-seasoning by coating lightly with
cooking oil.
TM
Use a a non-abrasive cleanser such as Bon Ami and a soft brush or
TM
soft Scotch Brite pad for cooked-on foods. Dry thoroughly after
cleaning. For best cleaning and to avoid possible rusting, do not clean
in dishwasher or self-cleaning oven.
6. Never flood a hot griddle with cold water! This promotes
griddle warping and can cause the griddle plate to crack if
continued over a period of time.
Aluminum Base
The aluminum base should be wiped regularly with hot soapy
water at the end of each cooling period. Do not use steel wool,
abrasive cloths, cleanser, or powders. To remove encrusted materials,
soak the area with a hot towel to loosen the material, then use a
wooden or nylon spatula. Do not use a metal knife, spatula, or any
other material tool to scrape the aluminum base.
NOTE: For cleaning, a Griddle Cleaning Kit can be purchased using a
consumer order form (supplied in the same envelope that contained
this use and care manual), or by calling Viking Range Corporation at
Cleaning Kit is a fast and easy commercial grade cleaning system. The
kit contains 25 or more cleanings.
NOTE: For stubborn stains, use a non-abrasive cleanser such as Bon
TM
TM
Ami and a soft brush or soft Scotch Brite pad on grates and burner
caps.

Grill
Control Panel
DO NOT USE any cleaners containing ammonia or abrasives. They
could remove the graphics from the control panel. Use hot, soapy
water and a soft clean cloth.
The grill grate may be cleaned immediately after cooking is complete
and before turning off the flame. Wearing a barbecue mitt to protect
your hand from heat, use a soft bristle barbecue brush to scrub the grill
grate. Dip the brush frequently in a bowl of water. Steam is created as
the water contacts the hot grate. The steam assists the cleaning
process by softening the food particles. For thorough cleaning of the
grill grate, soak 15 to 30 minutes in a hot water and detergent solution.
After soaking, scrub with a soft scotch brite pad. DO NOT USE a steel
wool pad or abrasive cleaners as they could damage the porcelain
finish.
Oven Surfaces
Several different finishes have been used in your self-clean oven.
Cleaning instructions for each exterior surface are given below. Your
oven features a self-clean cycle for the oven interior. See the self-clean
section for complete instructions. NEVERS USE AMMONIA, STEEL
WOOL PADS, ABRASIVE CLOTHS, ABRASIVE CLEANERS, CAUSTIC
OVEN CLEANERS, OR ABRASIVE POWDERS. THEY CAN
PERMANENTLY DAMAGE YOUR OVEN.
Stainless Steel Parts
After using the grill, always remove the drip pan located below it by
pulling the drip pan toward you. The drip pan needs to be cleaned
after each use of the griddle. Cooked-off grease will drain from the
griddle through the drain tube and accumulate in the drip pan. Wash
in hot soapy water or with an antibacterial cleaner. The drip pan needs
to be cleaned after each use. If grease is permitted to accumulate, fire
hazard could occur, since the grill burners are directly above the pan.
All stainless steel parts should be wiped regularly with hot, soapy water
at the end of each cooling period and with liquid stainless steel cleaner

Control Knobs
Before starting the Self-Clean cycle:
MAKE SURE THE CONTROL KNOBS POINT TO THE OFF POSITION
BEFORE REMOVING. Pull the knobs straight off. Wash in detergent
and warm water. Do not soak knobs. Dry completely and replace by
pushing firmly onto stem. DO NOT USE any cleaners containing
ammonia or abrasives. They could remove the graphics from the knob.
1. Remove the oven racks, rack supports, and any other items/utensils
from the oven. The high heat generated during the cleaning cycle
can discolor, warp, and damage these items. Do not use foil or
liners in the oven. During the Self-Clean cycle, foil can burn or melt
and damage the oven surface.
2. Wipe off any large spills from the oven bottom and sides. Never
use oven cleaners inside a self-cleaning oven or on raised portions
of the door.
3. Some areas of the oven must be cleaned by hand before the cycle
begins. Soil in these areas will be baked on and very difficult to
clean if not removed first. Clean the door up to the gasket, the
door frame, and up to two inches inside the frame with detergent
and hot water. Rinse thoroughly and dry.

Do not touch the exterior portions of the oven after self-cleaning cycle
has begun, since some parts become extremely hot to the touch!
During the first few times the self-cleaning feature is used, there may
be some odor and smoking from the “curing” of the binder in the
high-density insulation used in the oven. When the insulation is
thoroughly cured, this odor will disappear. During subsequent self-
cleaning cycles, you may sense an odor characteristic of high
temperatures.
To start the Self-Clean cycle:
1. Close the oven door completely.
2. Turn the Oven Function selector knob clockwise to the self-clean
mode. At this time the clean indicator light will come on.
3. Turn the Temperature Control knob past the clean setting until the
knob stops. At this time, the temperature indicator light will come
on and within 30 seconds, the automatic door latch engages. The
temperature indicator light will remain on until the oven reaches the
self-clean temperature and will then cycle on and off during the
cycle.
KEEP THE KITCHEN WELL-VENTED DURING THE SELF-CLEAN
CYCLE.
WARNING:
BURN OR ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD
Make sure all controls are OFF and oven is COOL before cleaning.
Failure to do so can result in burns or electrical shock.
4. The cleaning cycle will last approximately 3 1/2 hours with an
additional 30 minutes needed for the oven to cool down enough for
the door latch to disengage.
5. When the cycle is completed, turn both the Oven Function selector
and the Temperature Control knob to ”OFF” At this time the clean
indicator light will go off.
IMPORTANT
Do not clean, move, wet, or bend door gasket. Poor cleaning and
baking may result.
This range features an automatic pyrolytic self-cleaning cycle. During
this cycle, the oven reaches elevated temperatures in order to burn off
soil and deposits. An integral smoke eliminator helps reduce odors
associated with the soil burn-off. A powder ash residue is left in the
bottom of the oven after completion of the self-clean cycle. The door
latch is automatically activated after selecting the self-clean setting.
The latch ensures that the door cannot be opened while the oven
interior is at clean temperatures.
6. When the oven has completely cooled, open door and remove any
ash from the oven surfaces with a damp cloth.
To stop the Self-clean cycle:
To cancel or interrupt the self-cleaning cycle, turn both the
Temperature Control knob and Oven Function selector to “OFF”.
When the oven temperature drops to a safe temperature, the
automatic door latch will release and the oven door can be opened.
WARNING: Do not use commercial oven cleaners inside the oven.
Use of these cleaners can produce hazardous fumes or can damage the
porcelain finishes. Do not line the oven with aluminum foil or other
materials. These items can melt or burn during a self-clean cycle,
causing permanent damage to the oven.

Replacing Interior Oven Lights
Troubleshooting Guide
Problem
Possible Cause and/or Remedy
CAUTION: DISCONNECT THE ELECTRIC POWER AT THE MAIN
FUSE OR CIRCUIT BREAKER BEFORE REPLACING BULB.
Range will not function.
Range is not connected to electrical
power. Have electrician check power
circuit breaker, wiring and fuses.
1. Unscrew glass light cover.
2. Use an oven mitt during bulb
removal to protect your hand in
case the bulb breaks.
3. Replace the bulb with a 120 volt,
40-watt appliance bulb.
Oven does not operate in
self-clean.
Door is not shut tight enough for
automatic door latch to lock.
4. Replace the light cover
5. Reconnect power at the main fuse
or circuit breaker.
Oven is not clean after
self-clean cycle.
Temperature control knob not rotated
all the way past clean until it stops.
Broil does not work.
Door will not open.
Temperature control knob is rotated
too far past broil position.
Oven is still in self-clean mode. If oven
is hot, door latch will release when safe
temperature is reached.
Power Failure
If power failure occurs, the electric ignitors will not work. The range
surface burners can still be used, but only when the burners are lit
manually with a match. The griddle cannot be used at all. Do not
attempt to operate the oven. Make sure the oven control is in the
“OFF” position.
Oven light will not work.
Ignitors will not work.
Light bulb is burned out. Range is not
connected to power.
Circuit is tripped. Fuse is blown.
Range is not connected to power.
Due to safety considerations and the possibility of personal injury in
attempting to light and extinguish the burner, the grill should, not
under any circumstances, be used during a power failure. The grill
burner control should always remain in the “OFF” position during a
power failure.
Ignitors sparking but no
flame ignition.
Gas supply valve is in “off” position.
Gas supply is interrupted.
Ignitiors spark continuously
after flame ignition.
Power supply is not grounded.
Power supply polarity is reversed.
Ignitors are wet or dirty.
Momentary power failure can occur unnoticed. The range is affected
only when the power is interrupted. When it comes back on, the range
will function properly without any adjustments. A “brown-out” may or
may not affect range operation, depending on how severe the power
loss is.
Burner ignites but flame is
large, distorted, or yellow.
Burner ports are clogged. Unit is
being operated on wrong type of gas.
Air shutters not properly adjusted.
If the range is in the self-clean cycle when the power failure occurs,
wait until power is restored and allow door to unlock automatically.
Turn all controls off and restart self-clean cycle again, according to
instructions.
