    Model: • MGR5870, MGS5770, MGS5870 Welcome Congratulations on your choice of a Maytag gas range. Your complete satisfaction is very important to us. Read this user’s guide carefully. It is intended to help you operate and maintain your new range.
  • Page 3: General Instructions

  • Page 4: Important Safety Instructions

    IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS About Your Appliance NEVER use appliance as a space heater to heat or warm a room to prevent potential hazard to the user and damage to the appli- ance. Also, do not use the cooktop or oven as a storage area for food or cooking uten- sils.
  • Page 5: Important Safety Notice And Warning

    If the fan does not turn on, cancel the clean operation and contact an authorized servicer. It is normal for the cooktop of the range to become hot during a self-clean cycle. Therefore, touching the cooktop during a clean cycle should be avoided.
  • Page 6: Controls At A Glance

  • Page 9 Oven Temperature Adjustment Option If you think the oven should be hotter or cooler, you can adjust it yourself. To decide how much to change the oven tempera- ture, set the temperature 25 F higher or lower than the tempera- ture in your recipe, then bake.
  • Page 10: Surface Cooking

    • Be sure all surface controls are set in the OFF position prior to supplying gas to the range. • NEVER touch cooktop until it has cooled. Expect some parts of the cooktop, especially around the burners, to become warm or hot during cooking. Use potholders to protect hands.
  • Page 11: Cooktop

    Do not attempt to lift the cooktop for any reason. Sealed Burners The sealed burners of your range are secured to the cooktop and are not designed to be removed. Since the burners are sealed into the cooktop, boilovers or spills will not seep underneath the cooktop.
  • Page 12: Oven Operation

    Oven Operation Pilotless Ignition Your range is equipped with pilotless ignition. With this type of ignition system, the gas automatically shuts off and the oven will not operate during a power failure. A lighted match will not light the oven burner. No attempt should be made to operate the oven during a power failure.

  • Page 17: Clock Controlled Oven Cooking

    Clock Controlled Oven Cooking NOTES : • Highly perishable foods such as dairy products, pork, poultry or seafood are not recommended for delayed cook operations. • Clock controlled baking is not recommended for baked items that require a preheated oven, such as cakes, cookies and breads.
  • Page 18: Care And Cleaning

    Care and Cleaning Self-Clean Oven Self-Clean CAUTIONS: • It is normal for parts of the range to become hot during a clean cycle. • Avoid touching cooktop, door, window, or oven vent area during a clean cycle. • To prevent damage to oven door, do not attempt to open the door when the LOCK indicator word is displayed.
  • Page 19 To Cancel Self-Clean Cycle: • Press CANCEL pad. • If the indicator word LOCK is NOT displayed, open oven door. If LOCK is displayed, allow oven to cool, then open oven door.

    • Never wipe off a warm or hot surface with a damp cloth. This may cause cracking or chipping. • Never use oven cleaners, abrasive or caustic cleaning agents on exterior finish of range. (continued) • To prevent staining or discoloration, clean appliance after each use.
  • Page 21 • For burned on soil, remove from range, place on newspapers and carefully spray with commercial oven cleaner. (Do not spray surrounding surfaces.) Place in plastic bag and allow to soak several hours. Wearing rubber gloves, remove from bag, wash, rinse and dry.
  • Page 22: Maintenance

    CAUTIONS: • Do not place excessive weight on or stand on an open oven door. This could cause the range to tip over, break the door, or injure the user. • Do not attempt to open or close door or operate oven until door is properly replaced.
  • Page 23: Storage Drawer

    4. Replace bulb cover and secure with wire retainer. 5. Reconnect power to range. Reset clock. Oven Bottom The oven bottom on a conventional bake range may be removed for easier cleaning. NOTE: The oven bottom on convection models is not removable.
  • Page 24 CAUTION: • Be sure anti-tip bracket secures one of the rear leveling legs to the floor. This bracket prevents the range from accidentally tipping. The range should be leveled when installed. If the range is not level, turn the plastic leveling legs, located at each corner of the range, until range is level.
