USER SERVICING: Do not repair or replace any part of the appliance unless specifically recommended in this owner’s guide. Only a qualified technician should do all other servicing. This will reduce the risk of personal injury and dam- age to the range. Storage in or on appliance: Flammable materials should not be stored in an oven, near surface burners or in the broiler section. This includes paper, plastic and cloth items, such as cookbooks, plastic ware and towels, as well as flammable liquids. Do not use the oven for storage. Do not store explosives, such as aerosol cans, on or near the range.
Page 10
Do not use water or flour on grease fires. Smother the fire with a pan lid, baking soda or use a dry chemical or foam-type extinguisher. Operation of the Surface Burners. When the burners are operated for the first time, a small amount of smoke may be generated due to tape residue or manufac- turing lubrication, this is not dangerous. Operate the burners for about five min- utes to rid the burners of this material before cooking.
Page 11
Cookware handles should be turned inward and not extend over adjacent surface burners. To reduce the risk of burns, ignition of flammable materials, and spillage due to unintentional contact with the cookware, the handle of a cookware should be positioned so that it is turned inward, and does not extend over adjacent surface burners.
Page 12
Electrical installation should comply with national and local codes. REPLACEMENT PARTS Only authorized replacement parts may be used in performing service on the range. Replacement parts are available from factory authorized parts distributors. Contact the nearest Unique parts distributor in your area.

CARBON MONOXIDE WARNING: Carbon Monoxide is a possible danger when using any gas powered appli- ance. All gas appliances MUST be installed by a licensed professional who is famil- iar with the Carbon Monoxide levels appropriate for each appliance. The American Gas Association publishes CO emissions for appliances and heating equipment through the ANSI Std.
ENERGY-SAVING IDEAS Surface Cooking Use lids when surface cooking. A lid traps steam and uses it to speed up the cook- ing process. If you have a pressure cooker or vegetable steamer, use it. You’ll waste fewer vitamins, save time and cut energy costs. Use medium-weight, flat bottomed pans that match the flame size. Choose pans made of metals that conduct heat well.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS Be sure appliance is properly installed and grounded by a qualified technician. It is the responsibility of the technician to make certain that your range is properly installed. Situations caused by improper installation are not covered under the war- ranty.
HOW TO INSTALL THE BACKSPLASH 1. Align the backsplash to the rear part of the cooktop as shown in the diagram. 2. Secure the backsplash to the cooktop from the back using the 2 Philips head screws provided as shown in the diagram.

GAS RANGE CONVERSION (continued) 1. CAUTION: Before proceeding with the conversion, shut off the gas supply to the appliance prior to disconnecting the electrical power 2. Locate convertible regulator at the back of the range, left side facing back of appliance. Unscrew cap to locate pin.
Page 26
GAS RANGE CONVERSION (continued) To replace the oven burner orifice Orifice 1. Open oven door. 2. Remove all racks, then the bottom pan by lift- ing up the back first to release the front then pull pan out. Wrench 3. Locate the burner tube and locate the retaining screw at the front of the tube. Once this screw has been removed, lift up the burner and pull away slightly to expose the oven orifice.
Page 27
GAS RANGE CONVERSION (continued) CHECKING FOR MANIFOLD GAS PRESSURE To check the manifold gas pressure, remove the burner cap and connect a ma- nometer (water gauge) or other pressure test device to the burner orifice. Use a rubber hose with inside diameter of approximately ¼” hold the end of the hose tight over the orifice. Turn the gas valve on. For a more accurate pressure check, have at least two (2) other top burners burning.
ADJUSTING THE TOP BURNER AND OVEN FLAME Keep appliance area clear and free from combustible materials, gaso- line, and other flammable vapors and liquids. Do not obstruct the flow of air that is necessary for combustion and ventilation. Top Burner Valves The top burners have orifices that are dedicated to the type of fuel to be used.
Page 29
ADJUSTING THE TOP BURNER AND OVEN FLAME (continued) Cooktop Burner Operation The top burner flame size should be adjusted so that is does not extend beyond the edge of the cookware. As a matter of safety, it’s recommended 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 the pan. Fluctuations in flame size could be caused by pressure variations, improperly positioned burn- ers, damage or debris.
Page 30
ADJUSTING THE TOP BURNER AND OVEN FLAME (continued) ADJUSTING THE OVEN BURNER FLAME 1) Light the burner by turning the thermostat to the 500ºF position, 2) Remove the knob by pulling straight out. 3) Remove the two (2) Philips head screws that secure the bezel to the control panel.
OPERATION OF RANGE 20” Model 24” Model Lighting the Top Burners 1. To obtain a flame more easily, light the burner before placing a cooking utensil on the burner grate. 2. Decide which burner you’re igniting first using the screened diagram below the burner knob. The black dot indicates the position of the burner you’re igniting. 3.To light a burner, press the burner knob in and turn counter clockwise to high flame/ignition position. You will hear the electronic ignition clicking as you continue to hold the knob down until the flame lights.

OPERATION OF RANGE (continued) OVEN THERMOSTAT - The numbers printed on the control panel indicate the increasing oven temperature value (°F). - To regulate the temperature, set the chosen number onto the control knob indicator. - The position BROIL serves only to turn on the broil burner. NOTE: When the range will not be used for long periods of time, set the gas knobs to their OFF positions and also close the gas shut-off valve placed on the main gas supply line.
Page 34
OPERATION OF RANGE (continued) 3. Press the knob inward and hold to activate the electronic ignition. Note that you will hear a “clicking” noise. Hold the knob pressed inward until the oven burner is lit. Once the oven burner is lit, release the knob.
Page 35
OPERATION OF RANGE (continued) CONVECTION MODE Heat is transferred from the bake burners in the bottom of the oven cavity to the oven cavity itself. The convection fan in the rear of the oven then circulates the hot air, providing even heat distribution throughout the oven. Convection cooking gen- erally provides a more even temperature with faster baking times than the standard oven baking setting.
Page 36
OPERATION OF RANGE (continued) CONVECTION ROASTING When convection roasting, it is important that you use a broiler pan for best con- vection roasting results. A broil/roast pan (with a rack) elevates the roast to allow the hot air to circulate around the meat, sealing in juices for a moist and tender roast with a richly browned exterior (similar to a rotisserie effect.) The pan is also used to catch any drippings from the roast, keeping the oven clean and reducing the chance of smoking or flare-ups. The convection fan circulates heated air evenly...
ALIGNMENTS AND ADJUSTMENTS the electronic ignition. Note that you will hear a “clicking” noise. Hold the knob pressed inward until the oven burner is lit. Once the oven burner is lit, release the knob. In case of power outage, you can manually light the burner by press- ing the knob inward and immediately approach a lighted match to the area noted in the diagram above.Never continue this operation for more than 15 sec- onds.
CLEANING THE RANGE GENERAL RECOMMENDATION WA RN I N G Electrical Shock Hazard • Plug into a grounded 3-prong outlet. Insure proper ground exists before using the range. • Do not remove ground prong. • Do not use an adapter or ex- tension cord.
Page 39
CLEANING THE RANGE (continued) Using Commercial Oven Cleaners Commercial oven cleaners may be used on porcelain lined ovens; however, many cleaners are very strong, and it’s essential to follow instructions carefully. Be sure to wear rubber gloves to protect your hands. After using such cleaners, thoroughly rinse the oven with a solution of 1 tablespoon vinegar to 1 cup of water.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE Aluminum Foil in Oven WA RN I N G NEVER cover any slots, holes or passages in the oven bottom or cover an entire rack with materials such as aluminum foil. Doing so blocks air flow through the oven and may cause carbon monoxide poisoning.
