WARNINGWARNING
- Stepping, leaning or sitting on the door of this range can result in serious injuries and may also cause
damage to the range. Do not allow children to climb or play around the range. The weight of a child on an open
door may cause the range to tip, resulting in serious burns or other injury. An open door, when hot, may cause burns.
- Do not use the oven for storage.
- 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 oven.

UTIONUTION
Do not store items of interest to children in the cabinets above the appliance. Children climbing on the cooktop to reach items could be seriously injured.
Storage in or on Appliance—Flammable materials should not be stored in an oven,
near surface burners or in the drawer (if equipped). This includes paper, plastic and
cloth items, such as cookbooks, plasticware and towels, as well as flammable liquids. Do not store explosives, such as aerosol cans, on or near the appliance. Flammable materials may explode and result in fire or property damage.
Do not leave children alone—Children should not be left alone or unattended in
the area where appliance is in use. They should never be allowed to sit or stand on
any part of the appliance.
DO NOT TOUCH SURFACE BURNERS, AREAS NEAR THESE BURNERS, OVEN
HEATING ELEMENTS OR INTERIOR SURFACES OF THE OVEN. Both surface
burners and oven heating elements may be hot even though they are dark in color. 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 cooktop, surfaces facing the cooktop, the oven vent openings and surfaces near these openings, oven door and window.

Safety
Wear proper apparel—Loose-fitting or hanging garments should never be worn
while using the appliance. Do not let clothing or other flammable 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.
WARNINGWARNING
WARNING
WARNINGWARNING
In case of fire or gas leak, be sure to turn off the main gas shutoff valve.
Use only dry potholders—Moist or damp potholders on hot surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do not let potholders touch hot heating elements. Do not use a
towel or other bulky cloth instead of a potholder.
Do not heat unopened food containers—Buildup of pressure may cause container to burst and result in injury.
Remove the oven door from any unused range if it is to be stored or discarded.
IMPORTANT—Do not attempt to operate the oven during a power failure. If the power fails, always turn the oven off. If the oven is not turned off and the power
resumes, the oven may begin to operate again. Food left unattended could catch fire or spoil.
WARNINGWARNING
WARNING
WARNINGWARNING
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 burner flame to direct contact and may result in ignition of clothing. Proper relation of utensil to flame will also improve cooking efficiency.
WARNINGWARNING
WARNING
WARNINGWARNING
Do not use stove top grills on the burner grates of sealed gas burners. If you use a stove top grill on a sealed gas burner, it will cause incomplete combustion and can result in exposure to carbon monoxide levels above allowable current standards. This can be hazardous to your health.

Electronic controllers can be damaged by cold temperatures. When you use your appliance for the first time, or if it has not been used for a long period of time, make sure that it has been exposed to a temperature above 0°C/32°F for at least 3 hours before connecting it to the power supply.
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING YOUR COOKTOP
Know which knob controls each surface heating unit. Always turn the knob to the
LITE position when igniting the burners. Visually check that burner has lit. Then adjust the flame so it does not extend beyond the edge of the utensil.
Use proper pan size. This appliance is equipped with one or more surface burners of different sizes. Select utensils having flat bottoms large enough to cover the surface burner. The use of undersized utensils will expose a portion of the surface burner to direct contact and may result in ignition of clothing. Proper relationship of utensil to the surface burner will also improve efficiency.
Safety
Utensil handles should be turned inward and not extend over adjacent surface
burners—To reduce the risk of burns, ignition of flammable 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 oven bottom or any other part of the appliance. Only use aluminum foil as recommended for baking if used as a cover placed on the food. Any other use of protective liners or aluminum foil may result in a risk of electric shock or fire or short circuit.
Glazed cooking utensils—Only certain types of glass, glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed utensils are suitable for rangetop service without breaking due to the sudden change in temperature. Check the manufacturer’s recommendations for rangetop use.
Do not use decorative surface burner covers. If a burner is accidentally turned on, the decorative cover will become hot and possibly melt. Burns will occur if the hot covers are touched. Damage may also be done to the cooktop or burners because the covers may cause overheating. Air will be blocked from the burner and cause combustion problems.
Do not clean or operate a 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 glass with caution—If a wet sponge or cloth is used to wipe spills on a hot cooking area, be careful to avoid a steam burn. Some cleaners can produce harmful fumes if applied to a hot surface.
Avoid scratching the cooktop glass with sharp objects.

IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING YOUR OVEN
Use care when opening oven door or warmer drawer (if equipped)—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/ warmer drawer.
Keep oven vent ducts unobstructed. The oven vent is located under the cooktop. 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/warmer drawer (if equipped) racks. Always place oven racks in desired location while oven/warmer drawer (if equipped) 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/ warmer drawer (if equipped). Remove all utensils from the rack before moving.
Do not use the broiler pan without its insert. The broiler pan and its insert allow dripping 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.
Do not touch a hot light bulb with a damp cloth. Doing so could cause the bulb to break. Disconnect the appliance or turn off the power to the appliance before removing and replacing light bulb.

Safety
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR CLEANING YOUR RANGE
Clean the range regularly to keep all parts free of grease that could catch fire.
Exhaust fan ventilation hoods and grease filters should be kept clean. Do not allow grease to accumulate on hood or filter. Greasy deposits in the fan could catch fire. When you are flaming food under the hood, turn the fan on. Refer to the hood manufacturer’s instructions for cleaning.
SELF CLEANING OVENS
In the self-Cleaning cycle only clean the parts listed in this Use and Care Guide.
Before self cleaning the oven, remove the broiler pan and any utensils or foods from the oven.
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.
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.
Remove oven racks. Oven racks color will change if left in the oven during a self­cleaning cycle.
