is in use. They should never be allowed to sit or stand
on any part of the appliance.
4. Wear proper apparel. Loose fitting or hanging
garments should never be worn while using appliance.
5. User Servicing--Do not repair or replace any part of
the appliance unless specifically recommended in the
manual. All other servicing should be referred to a
qualified technician.
6. Storage in oron appliance. Flammable materials
should not be stored in an oven or near surface units.
7. Do not use water on grease fires. Smother fire or
flame, or use dry chemical or foam-type extinguisher.
8. Use only dry potholders. Moist or damp potholders on
hot surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do not
let potholder touch flame. Do not use a towel or other
bulky cloth.
SURFACE COOKING UNITS
1. Use proper pan size. This appliance is equipped with
one or more surface units of different size. Select
utensils having flat bottoms large enough to cover the
surface unit heating element. The use of undersized
utensils will expose a portion of the burner to direct
contact and may result in ignition of clothing. Use of
oversized utensils concentrates heat on cooking
surface and can cause damage to range. Proper
relationship of utensil to burner improves efficiency.
2. Never leave surface units unattended. Boilover causes
smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite.
3. Make sure drip bowls are in place. Absence of these
pans or bowls during cooking may subject wiring or
components underneath to damage.
4. Protective liners. Do not use aluminum foil to line drip
bowls or oven bottom. Improper installation of these
liners may result in a risk of fire.
5. Glazed cooking utensils--Only certain types of glass,
ceramic, earthware, or other glazed utensils are
suitable for rangetop service without breaking due to
sudden change in temperature.
6. Utensil handles should be turned inward and not
extend over adjacent surface units. To reduce the risk
of burns, ignition of flammable materials, and spillage
due to unintentional contact with the utensil, the
handle of a utensil should be positioned so that it is
turned inward, and does not extend over adjacent
surface units.
OVENS
1. Use care when opening door. Let hot air or steam
escape before removing or replacing food.
2. Do not heat unopened food containers. Build-up of
pressure may cause container to burst and result in
injury.
3. Keep oven vent ducts unobstructed.
4. Placement of oven racks. Always place oven racks in
desired location while oven is cool. If rack is removed
while oven is hot, do not let potholder contact burner
inoven.
SELF=CLEANING OVENS
1. Do not clean door gasket. The door gasket is
essential for a good seal. Care should be taken not
to rub, damage, or move the gasket.
2. Do not use oven cleaners. No commercial oven
cleaner or oven liner protective coating of any kind
should be used in or around any part of the liner.
3. Clean only parts listed in manual.

Gas Supply Pressure
1 CAUTION
To avoid property damage, maximum gas supply
pressure must not exceed 14" WCP.
• Appliance and individual shutoff valve must be
disconnected from the gas supply piping system during
any pressure testing of that system at test pressures in
excess of ½ psig (3.5kPa) (14" WCP).
• Appliance must be isolated from gas supply piping
system by closing manual shutoffvalve during any
pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at
test pressures equal to or less than ½ psig (3.5kPa)
(14" WCP).
• Gas supply pressure for checking regulator setting
must be at least 1"WCP above manifold pressure
shown on rating label.
Duct Requirements
• Duct should be 6-inch round metal ducting. Island or
peninsula installations may require 31/4X 10 inch duct.
• To ensure proper ventilation, duct work must not exceed
60 equivalent feet.
• Curved fittings should not account for more than 50% of
duct length.
• Flexible duct is not recommended because of irregular
interior surface. Ifflexible duct is to be used, one foot is
equal to 2 feet of metal duct. NEVER USE PLASTIC
TYPE DRYER DUCTING.
• Do not vent into an attic or crawl space. Vent range
outside.
• Flexible duct elbows are equal to twice as many feet as
smooth metal elbows.
• Never install two elbow fittings next to each other. Two
elbows installed together create a poor vent path and
insufficient ventilation.
• Seal all duct joints tightly using duct tape. Openings left
in ducting allow smoke and odor to escape inside
house.
• For best performance, do not use more than three 90°
elbows.
• 6-inch transition duct provided must be mechanically
secured to exhaust blower outlet. Secure transition duct
using two screws provided.
