Setting Surface

Controls

The control shown below may not

look identical to the Surface Control

knob on your range; it is only

representational.

Each burner lights automatically from an electric ignitor each time a control

knob is turned to the LITE position.

To operate the surface burner:

1. Place cooking utensil on burner.

2. Push the Surface Control knob in and turn counterclockwise out of the

OFF position.

3. Release the knob and rotate to the LITE position. Note: All surface

electronic ignitors will click at the same time. However, only the burner you

are turning on will ignite.

3. Visually check that the burner has lit.

4. Push the control knob in and turn counterclockwise to the desired flame

size. The control knobs do not have to be set at a particular mark. Use the

guides and adjust the flame as needed. DO NOT cook with the Surface

Control knob in the LITE position. (The electronic ignitor will continue to

click if left in the LITE position.)

In the event of an electrical power outage, the surface burners can be lit

manually. To light a surface burner, hold a lit match to the burner head, then

push in and slowly turn the Surface Control knob to LITE. Use caution when

lighting surface burners manually.

Do not place plastic items such as salt and pepper shakers,

spoon holders or plastic wrappings on top of the range when it is in use.

These items could melt or ignite. Potholders, towels or wood spoons could

catch fire if placed too close to a flame.

Arranging Oven Racks

(Some models may have one rack.) ALWAYS ARRANGE OVEN RACKS WHEN

THE OVEN IS COOL (Prior to operating the oven). Always use oven mitts when

using the oven and broiling compartments.

Before Setting Oven

Controls

To remove an oven rack, pull the rack

forward until it stops. Lift up front of

rack and slide out. To replace an oven

rack, fit the rack onto the guides on

the oven walls. Tilt the front of the

rack upward and slide the rack back

into place.

To bake on one rack, place the rack

on position 3 or 4. To bake on two

racks (some models), place the racks

on positions 2 and 4.

Oven Vent Locations (shown)

When appliance is on, warm air is

released through the vents. This venting

is necessary for proper burner operation

and good baking results.
