Product Manuals

Q: Does the range have a self-cleaning function or does it require manual cleaning?

Q: Does the range come with a griddle, or is it an additional purchase?
A: The Professional 5 Series Freestanding Double Oven Gas Convection Range does not come with a griddle. The griddle is an optional accessory that can be purchased separately. The optional griddle is constructed of machined steel with a blanchard finish and is uniquely designed to offer excellent cooking performance as well as easy clean up.
Q: What is the highest temperature setting on the oven?
A: The highest temperature setting on the oven is 450°F. This information can be found in the section "Before first use".

Q: How does the convection technology work and what are its advantages?
A: Convection technology utilizes a motorized fan to circulate hot air throughout the oven, ensuring even heat distribution and faster cooking times. This allows for multi-rack baking and roasting, with consistent results and reduced cooking time by 10-15% for single items or smaller loads. Additionally, convection cooking sears meats on the outside while retaining more juices and natural flavor, making it ideal for thick cuts.
Q: What is the purpose of the SureSpark reignition system?
A: The SureSpark reignition system automatically reignites the burners when they accidentally extinguish while cooking, ensuring consistent and reliable ignition on all burners. This feature provides peace of mind and convenience, eliminating the need for manual relighting.
