Overview

This document describes a range appliance, providing instructions for its safe and effective use, as well as maintenance guidelines.

Function Description:

The appliance is a range, combining a rangetop with an oven, designed for domestic cooking. It features multiple burners on the rangetop and various cooking functions within the oven, including conventional baking, convection cooking, broiling, and defrosting. The rangetop burners are equipped with an ignition safety device that attempts to relight the flame if it accidentally goes out and blocks gas flow if relighting is unsuccessful. The oven includes multiple rack supports for flexible placement of trays and racks.

Important Technical Specifications:

  • Gas Type: Manufactured for natural gas, with a conversion kit available for LP/Propane gas.
  • Oven Temperature Range: The oven burner control knob allows regulation of temperature, with a maximum preheat temperature of 530°F (277°C).
  • Rangetop Burner Diameters:
    • Fast burners: 18-26 cm (7 1/8" - 10 1/4")
    • Ultra fast burners: 20-26 cm (7 7/8" - 10 1/4")
  • Oven Light: Uses oven bulbs rated T 600°F.
  • Electrical Grounding: Requires proper electrical grounding in compliance with National Electrical Code ANSI / NFPA 70 or CANADIAN ELECTRICAL CODE, C22.11-1982 and C22.2 No. 01982, and all local codes.
  • Anti-Tip Device: Essential for safety, ensuring the range is anchored to the wall or floor.

Usage Features:

  • Timer Control: A knob allows setting a timer for up to 55 minutes, with a buzzer sounding when time expires, but without interrupting cooking.
  • Oven Function Selector:
    • No Function Selected: Oven functions are deactivated.
    • Defrost: Uses circulating air at room temperature for rapid defrosting.
    • Oven Light: Turns on the internal oven light.
    • Convection: Activates the oven convection system for cooking with forced air, ensuring uniform heat distribution.
  • Oven Burner Control: Used to light the oven burner and set the desired cooking temperature. Partial opening of the oven door is recommended when lighting.
  • Rangetop Burner Control: Knobs are used to light burners by turning counterclockwise to the simmer flame symbol. Flame intensity can be adjusted between maximum and minimum marks.
  • Central Burner Control: Similar to rangetop burners, with an additional double flame symbol to light the external part of the burner.
  • Oven Rack System: Features four rack supports. Racks and trays have a mechanical safety lock to prevent accidental removal; the lock must face downwards when inserting.
  • Cookware Guidelines: Recommends using cookware with flat, smooth bottoms, straight sides, tight-fitting lids, and medium-to-heavy thickness. Provides a chart detailing properties of various cookware materials (Aluminum, Cast Iron, Ceramic/Glass-Ceramic, Copper, Earthenware, Porcelain Enameled Steel/Cast Iron, Stainless Steel) for optimal cooking results.
  • Cooking Recommendations: Includes charts for conventional and convection cooking, as well as broiling, with recommended rack positions, temperatures, and cooking times for various foods (first courses, meats, fish, pizza, desserts).
  • Safety Precautions: Emphasizes keeping the oven door closed during cooking, not lining the oven bottom with foil, and using pans with deep sides to prevent splattering. Warns against using the defrost function for convection cooking due to potential malfunction.

Maintenance Features:

  • Stainless Steel Parts: Should be cleaned regularly after use with specific non-abrasive, non-chlorine-based products. Metallic scouring pads or sharp scrapers should be avoided to prevent damage.
  • Rangetop Parts (Grates, Burner Caps, Burner Heads, Burners): Grates should be cleaned with warm water and non-abrasive detergent. Burner caps and heads can be removed for cleaning with hot water and non-abrasive detergent, ensuring complete drying. These parts should not be washed in a dishwasher. Burner caps must be correctly aligned with projections on the burners when reassembling.
  • Spark Electrodes: Must be kept clean. Wipe with a damp cloth and remove burnt residue with a wooden toothpick or pin.
  • Oven Cleaning: The oven should be cleaned regularly after cooling. Removable parts (racks) should be cleaned with hot water and non-abrasive detergent. The oven door can be removed for easier cleaning.
  • Oven Door Glass: Clean with absorbent kitchen paper towel and standard household detergent for tough spots. Abrasive or corrosive cleaners, sharp metal scrapers, or steel wool pads should not be used to avoid scratching or breaking the glass.
  • Oven Door Gasket: Can be removed for thorough cleaning of the oven, after removing the oven door itself.
  • Oven Light Bulb Replacement: Involves removing upper protection, ring, and glass cover by twisting counterclockwise, then replacing the bulb and reassembling.
  • Surface Burner Gas Valves: If stiff or jammed, they require internal cleaning and relubrication by a qualified technician.

Important Safety Instructions:

The manual highlights critical safety warnings, including:

  • Fire/Explosion Hazard: Do not store or use flammable vapors or liquids near the appliance.
  • Gas Leak Protocol: If gas is smelled, do not light appliances, touch electrical switches, or use telephones. Immediately call the gas supplier or fire department.
  • Installation: Must be performed by a qualified installer, service agency, or gas supplier.
  • Anti-Tip Device: Crucial for preventing the range from tipping over, which can cause severe injury or death. Must be properly installed and re-engaged if the range is moved.
  • Children Safety: Do not leave children unattended near the appliance; never allow them to sit or stand on any part of the appliance.
  • Flammable Materials: Never store flammable materials in or near the oven/surface burners.

  • Potholders: Use dry potholders; avoid contact with hot surfaces.
  • Hot Surfaces: Do not touch surface burners or the inside of the oven until completely cooled.
  • Oven Door: Open in two stages to allow steam to escape and prevent burns.
  • Aluminum Foil: Do not use to line any part of the oven or rangetop as it can cause electrical shock, fire hazard, obstruct heat/air flow, and damage enamel.
  • Unattended Operation: Never leave the range unattended when using high heat settings.
  • Food Containers: Do not heat unopened food containers due to pressure buildup.
  • Oven Door Gasket: Do not clean, rub, damage, or remove; replace if damaged.
  • Power Supply: Disconnect before servicing.
  • California Proposition 65 Warning: The product contains chemicals known to cause cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive harm, and can cause low-level exposure to substances like benzene, formaldehyde, carbon monoxide, toluene, and soot.
