problems or conditions you do not understand.

Safety Symbols and Labels

WARNING - NEVER use this appliance as a space
heater to heat or warm the room. Doing so may result
in carbon monoxide poisoning and overheating of the
appliance.

WARNING - Failure to install this appliance as specified
in these instructions may result in personal injury or

death.

Immediate hazards that WILL result in severe personal
injury or death.

Hazards or unsafe practices that COULD result in severe
personal injury or death.

Hazards or unsafe practices that COULD result in minor
personal injury or property damage.

IMPORTANT: If you smell gas:

• Do not use or light any appliance.

• Do not touch any electrical switch or use any electrical
devices, including the telephone, in your building.

• From a neighbors phone, immediately call the gas
supplier. Follow the gas supplier's instructions.

• If you cannot contact the gas supplier, call the fire
department.

• Do not return to the building until instructed to do so

by the gas supplier or fire department.

IMPORTANT: Do not store or use combustible, flammable
or explosive vapors and liquids (such as gasoline) inside
or in the vicinity of this or any other appliance. Also keep

items that could explode, such as aerosol cans, away
from the burners and the oven. Do not store flammable or

explosive materials in adjacent cabinets or areas.

IMPORTANT: Junked or abandoned appliances are

dangerous and can cause a child entrapment and

suffocation hazard. When taking an appliance out of

service, immediately follow the instructions below to help

prevent accidents:

• Take off the door.

• Leave the racks in place so children cannot easily
climb inside.

• Cut the prongs off the power cable plug and discard
them.

• Cut the power cable off and discard it separately from
the old appliance.

WARNING - NEVER cover any slots, holes or passages

on the inside or outside of the range 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. Aluminum foil linings may also trap
heat, causing a fire hazard.

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY TO PERSONS IN
THE EVENT OF A RANGE TOP GREASE FIRE:

a. SMOTHER FLAMES with a close-fitting lid, cookie

sheet or metal tray, then turn off the burner. BE
CAREFUL TO PREVENT BURNS. If the flames do not

go out immediately, EVACUATE AND CALL THE FIRE

DEPARTMENT.

b. NEVER PICK UP A FLAMING PAN - you may be

burned.

The burning of gas cooking fuel generates some
by-products that are on the list of substances which
are known by the State of California to cause cancer or
reproductive harm. California law requires businesses
to warn customers of potential exposure to such
substances. To minimize exposure to these substances,
always operate this unit according to the use and care
manual, ensuring you provide good ventilation when
cooking with gas.

accompanying it. A qualified service technician should perform all other service.

• Do not connect this range to the gas supply without the supplied gas pressure regulator installed.

• Before performing any type of service or installation, make sure that the gas supply to the range is turned off and

• the power cord is disconnected.

Do not cover the IR broil burner in the top of the oven with cookie sheets, aluminum foil, pots, pans, etc. Covering it

could cause it to overheat resulting in a risk of fire and damage to the oven.

• Only use the range for cooking tasks expected of a home appliance as outlined in the literature accompanying it.
Th s range is not ntended for commercial use. This range is certified for indoor nsta lation only.

• DO NOT TOUCH THE SURFACES OF THE OVEN OR COOKTOP DURING OR IMMEDIATELY AFTER USE.

• Do not climb on any part of the appliance.

• Never leave this appliance unattended when in use.

• Do not leave children or pets alone or unattended in the area around the range. Do not allow children to play with
the controls, pull on the handle, or touch other parts of the range. Do not store items of interest to children on top of

or above the range. Children could be burned or injured while climbing on the appliance.

• Do not attempt to use this appliance in the event of a power failure.

• Do not tamper with the controls. Do not adjust or alter any part of the range unless specifically instructed to do so in
