important Safety lnstructions

. DO NOT TOUCH SURFACE BURNERS, AREAS NEAR

THESE BURNERS, OVEN BURNERS OR iNTERiOR

SURFACES OF THE OVEN. Both surface and oven burners
may be hot even though flames are not visible. Areas near

surface burners may become hot enough to cause burns.
During and after use, do not touch, or let clothing or other
flammable materials touch these areas until they have had
sufficient time to cool. Among these areas are the cook top,
surfaces facing the cook top, the oven vent openings and
surfaces near these openings, oven door and window.

, Wear ProperAppareI--Loose-fitting orhanging garments

should never be worn while using the appliance. Do not
let clothing orotherflammable materials contact hot surfaces.

. Do Not Use Water or Flour on Grease Fires--Smother

the fire with a pan lid, or use baking soda, a dry
chemical or foam-type extinguisher.

. When heating fat or grease, watch it closely. Fat or

grease may catch fire if allowed to become too hot.

. Use Only Dry Potholders--Moist ordamp potholders on

hot surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do not let
potholders touch hot heating burners. Do not use atowel or
other bulky cloth instead of a potholder.

. Do Not Heat Unopened Food Containers--Buildup of

injury.

, Remove the oven door from any unused range if it is to

be stored or discarded.

IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USINGYOUR COOKTOP

Use Proper Flame Size--Adjust flame size

so it does not extend beyond the edge of the utensil. The use
of undersized utensils will expose a portion of the burnerflame
to direct contact and may result in ignition of clothing. Proper
relationship of utensil to flame will also improve efficiency.

. Knowwhich knob controls each surface burner. Place a

pan of food on the burner before turning it on, and turn the
burner off before removing the pan.

,Always turn knob to the full LITE position when igniting

top burners. Visually check that burner has lit. Then adjust
theflame so itdoes not extend beyond the edge of the utensil.

, Utensil Handles Should Be Turned inward and Not

Extend Over Adjacent Surface Burners--To reduce the
risk of burns, ignition offlammable materials, and spillage due

to unintentional contact with the utensil, the handle of the
utensil should be positioned so that it is turned inward, and

does not extend over adjacent surface burners.

, Never Leave Surface Burners Unattended at High Heat

Settings--Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers
that may ignite, or a pan that has boiled dry may melt.

. Protective Liners--Do not use aluminum foil to line surface

burner pans, or oven bottom, except as suggested in this
manual. Improper installation of these liners may result in risk

of electric shock, or fire.

, Glazed Cooking UtensilsiOnly certain types of glass,

glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed utensils
are suitable for cooktop service without breaking due to the

sudden change in temperature. Check the manufacturer's
recommendations for cooktop use.

IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING YOUR OVEN
, Use Care When Opening Oven Door orWarmer Drawer--

Stand to the side of the range when opening the door of a hot
oven. Let hot air or steam escape before you remove or
replace food in the oven.

. Keep Oven Vent Ducts Unobstructed. The oven vent is

located below the backguard. Touching the surfaces in this
area when the oven is operating may cause severe burns.
Also, do not place plastic or heat-sensitive items on or near
the oven vent. These items could melt or ignite.

. Placement of Oven Racks. Always place oven racks in

desired location while oven is cool. If rack must be moved
while oven is hot use extreme caution. Use potholders and

grasp the rack with both hands to reposition. Do not let
potholders contact the hot heating elements in the oven.
Remove all utensils from the rack before moving.

. Do not use the broiler pan without its insert. The broiler

pan and its insert allowdripping fat to drain and be kept away
from the high heat of the broiler.

. Do not cover the broiler insert with aluminum foil.

Exposed fat and grease could ignite.

• Cold temperatures can damage the electronic control. When
using the appliance for the first time, or when the appliance
has not been used for an extended period of time, be certain
