RANGE
Top Burner Operation:
Note- When boiling food, the highest temperature that can be
reached is the boiling point. When the liquid starts to boil,
decrease the size of the flame until you reach the minimum
flame that will hold the boil. This will save gas. It will also
decrease the possibilty of burning food or boiling over, and
help keep your kitchen cooler. Use stable cookware with flat
bottoms, and always place the cookware on the burner grate
before lighting the burner. Unstable or rounded bottom
cookware will not contact properly with the grate and will
affect the cooking efficiency. Select cookware large enough to
avoid spillovers, but remember, over-sized cookware
1
(diameters exceeding 8
/2") can cause the range finish to
discolor or chip. Damage caused by oversized cookware, such
as those sometimes used in canning, are not covered under
warranty. The finish has been manufactured to a commercially
acceptable standard and its condition is dependent upon the
care of the user.

Start most foods; bring water to a boil;
High
pan-broiling.
Maintain a slow boil; Thicken sauces,
Medium
gravies; steaming.
Low
Keep foods cooking; poach; stewing.
Top Burner Valves:
The top burner flame size should be adjusted so that it does not
extend beyond the edge of the cookware. As a matter of safety,
it is urged that you comply with these instructions.A high
flame on a surface burner is both inefficient and unsafe. The
flame should always be adjusted so that it is no larger than the
bottom of a pan. Fluctuations in flame size could be caused by
pressure variations, improperly positioned burners, damage, or
debris.
Preheating:
Heat the oven to the desired temperature before placing the
food in the oven. Preheat for 10 to 12 minutes.
Opening the Oven Door:
Let hot air/steam escape before removing/replacing food.
Arranging Oven Racks:
The oven racks should be arranged before the oven is turned
"ON". Place the racks so the food is centered in the oven.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
TYPE OF COOKING
Always turn to the full LITE
position when igniting the top
burners. Then adjust the flame
size so it doesn't extend beyond
the edge of the cookware.
Note: Know which knob
controls each burner. Place a pan
of food on the burner before
turning it on, and turn the burner
off before removing the pan.
FOOD
Temperature Selection:
It is important to select the proper temperature
setting. Never set the dial to a higher degree than
necessary, with the intention of lowering the setting at a
later time. This will not speed up cooking. It can cause
the oven to cycle slower and cause the temperature to
vary so that cooking results may be unsatisfactory. Your
oven has a temperature range of 250°F ~ 500°F.
Baking:
When baking, follow the recipe instructions. Use
correct ingredients, measure them carefully, and use the
correct type and size cookware suggested in the recipe.
Remember to preheat properly. Avoid frequent opening
of the oven door during preheating and baking. When
baking cakes in glass baking dishes, lower the oven
temperature 25°F to prevent browning of the bottom
and sides before the top becomes brown.Also, when
using glass bakeware, it would be better to increase the
preheat time to have exact stabilization of the oven's
temperature. To do so, allow 20 minutes time for
temperatures up to 350°F and 30 minutes for
temperatures up to 425°F. Avoid opening the door as
much as possible.
Oven Racks:
The oven racks should be arranged before the oven
knob is turned to an "ON" position. Place the racks so
the food is centered in the oven, not the rack.
When more than one dish is used, be sure to stagger
them, allowing space between each one. Do not allow
the dishes to touch any part of the oven,
especially the glass window. It is best to use two racks
and place food so one dish is not directly over another.
Rack Removal:
Pull the oven rack forward and lift up on the front of
the rack so it will clear the rack keeper. To replace the
oven rack, guide the angled rear portion of the rack
under the rack keeper and slide the rack to the rear.
Never cover the oven racks with aluminum foil. Such
practices will trap heat and cause intense heat in spots
which usually give poor results. It can damage the
porcelain finish as well as glass windows in oven
doors.
