IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock,

injury to persons, or damage when using the range, follow basic precautions, including the following:

■ WARNING:

THE RANGE, THE RANGE MUST BE SECURED BY PROPERLY INSTALLED ANTI-TIP DEVICES. TO CHECK IF THE DEVICES ARE INSTALLED PROPERLY, SLIDE RANGE FORWARD, LOOK FOR ANTI-TIP BRACKET SECURELY ATTACHED TO FLOOR OR WALL, AND SLIDE RANGE BACK SO REAR RANGE FOOT IS UNDER ANTI-TIP BRACKET.

■ CAUTION: Do not store items of interest to children in

cabinets above a range or on the backguard of a range – children climbing on the range to reach items could be seriously injured.

■ Proper Installation – Be sure the range is properly installed

and grounded by a qualified technician.

■ Never Use the Range for Warming or Heating the Room.

■ Do Not Leave Children Alone – Children should not be left

alone or unattended in area where the range is in use. They should never be allowed to sit or stand on any part of the range.

Wear Proper Apparel – Loose-fitting or hanging garments

■

should never be worn while using the range. User Servicing – Do not repair or replace any part of the

■

range unless specifically recommended in the manual. All other servicing should be referred to a qualified technician.

■ Storage in or on the Range – Flammable materials should

not be stored in an oven or near surface units.

■ Do Not Use Water on Grease Fires – Smother fire or flame

or use dry chemical or foam-type extinguisher.

■ Use Only Dry Potholders – Moist or damp potholders on

hot surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do not let potholder touch hot heating elements. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth.

■ DO NOT TOUCH SURFACE UNITS OR AREAS NEAR

UNITS – Surface units may be hot even though they are dark in color. Areas near surface units may become hot enough to cause burns. During and after use, do not touch, or let clothing or other flammable materials contact surface units or areas near units until they have had sufficient time to cool. Among those areas are the cooktop and surfaces facing the cooktop.

■ Use Proper Pan Size – The range 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 heating element to direct contact and may result in ignition of clothing. Proper relationship of utensil to burner will also improve efficiency.

■ Never Leave Surface Units Unattended at High Heat

Settings – Boilover causes smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite.

■ Make Sure Reflector Pans or Drip Bowls Are in Place –

Absence of these pans or bowls during cooking may subject wiring or components underneath to damage.

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF TIPPING OF

■ Protective Liners – Do not use aluminum foil to line surface

unit drip bowls or oven bottoms, except as suggested in the manual. Improper installation of these liners may result in a risk of electric shock, or fire.

Glazed Cooking Utensils – Only certain types of glass,

■

glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed utensils are suitable for range-top service without breaking due to the sudden change in temperature.

■ 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.

■ Do Not Soak Removable Heating Elements – Heating

elements should never be immersed in water.

■ Do Not Cook on Broken Cooktop – If cooktop should

break, cleaning solutions and spillovers may penetrate the broken cooktop and create a risk of electric shock. Contact a qualified technician immediately.

■ Clean Cooktop With Caution – If a wet sponge or cloth is

used to wipe spills on a hot cooking area, be careful to avoid steam burn. Some cleaners can produce noxious fumes if applied to a hot surface.

Use Care When Opening Door – Let hot air or steam

■

escape before removing or replacing food. Do Not Heat Unopened Food Containers – Build-up of

■

pressure may cause container to burst and result in injury.

■ Keep Oven Vent Ducts Unobstructed.

■ Placement of Oven Racks – Always place oven racks in

desired location while oven is cool. If rack must be moved while oven is hot, do not let potholder contact hot heating element in oven.

DO NOT TOUCH HEATING ELEMENTS OR INTERIOR

■

SURFACES OF OVEN – Heating elements may be hot even though they are dark in color. Interior surfaces of an oven become hot enough to cause burns. During and after use, do not touch, or let clothing or other flammable materials contact heating elements or interior surfaces of oven until they have had sufficient time to cool. Other surfaces of the appliance may become hot enough to cause burns – among these surfaces are oven vent openings and surfaces near these openings, oven doors, and windows of oven doors.

For self-cleaning ranges –

■ 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.

■ 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 oven.

■ Clean Only Parts Listed in Manual.

■ Before Self-Cleaning the Oven – Remove broiler pan and

other utensils.

For units with ventilating hood –

■ Clean Ventilating Hoods Frequently – Grease should not

be allowed to accumulate on hood or filter.

■ When flambeing foods under the hood, turn the fan on.
