SAFETY AND WARNINGS

To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, injury to persons, or damage when using the
appliance, follow the important safety instructions listed below:

WARNING!

Electrical Shock Hazard
Before removing a faulty oven light bulb, make sure you turn the power to
the range off at the main fuse or circuit breaker panel. If you don’t know
how to do this, contact an electrician.
Do not remove the kickstrip grate. Due to access to live electrical parts
behind it, the kickstrip grate should only be removed by a qualified
technician.
This appliance is equipped with a three-prong or four-prong grounding
plug for your protection against shock hazard and should be plugged
directly into a properly grounded power outlet. Do not under any
circumstances cut or remove the grounding prong from this plug.
Failure to follow this advice may result in death or electrical shock.

!

WARNING!

FIre Hazard
Never use your appliance for warming or heating the room. Persons could
be injured or a fire could start.
Keep the area around the appliance free from combustible materials (e.g.
wall coverings, curtains, drapes), gasoline and other flammable vapors
and liquids.

SAFETY AND WARNINGS

WARNING!

Explosion Hazard
If you smell gas, do not use the appliance. Open a window or door to let
the gas escape, then follow the instructions on the inside front cover of
this manual.
Do not use water on grease fires. A violent steam explosion may result.
Turn all burners off, then smother fire or flame or use dry chemical or
foam-type extinguisher.
Do not heat unopened food containters such as cans – Build-up of
pressure may cause container to burst and result in injury.
Failure to follow this advice may result in injury or death.

!

WARNING!

Poisoning Hazard
Never cover any slots, holes or passages in the oven bottom or cover an
entire rack or the oven floor with materials such as aluminum foil. Doing
so blocks airflow through the oven and may cause carbon monoxide
poisoning. Aluminum foil linings may also trap heat, causing a fire
hazard.
Clean the appliance 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. Follow the
directions of the cleaner manufacturer.
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.
Failure to follow this advice may result in poisoning or death.

!

WARNING!

Hot Surface Hazard
Accessible parts may become hot during use.
Do not touch burners, areas near burners, the grill, griddle, grease drip­pans, heating elements or interior surfaces of oven – These may be hot
enough to cause burns even though they are dark in color. During and
after use, do not touch, or let clothing or other flammable materials
contact these parts and surfaces until they have had sufficient time to
cool. Other parts and surfaces of the appliance may become hot enough
to cause burns - among these areas are the grates, back trim and oven
vents at the back of the cooktop, front edge, surfaces adjacent to the
cooktop, and the oven door.
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.
Let hot grease cool before attempting to handle it.
Failure to follow this advice may result in serious injury.

SAFETY AND WARNINGS

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS!

●

Read all the instructions before using the appliance. Use the appliance only for its
intended purpose as described in these instructions.

●

Proper installation – Be sure your appliance is properly installed and grounded by a
qualified technician. A risk of tip-over exists when the appliance is not installed in
accordance with the installation instructions.

●

Do not operate the appliance if it is damaged or not working properly. If you received
a damaged product, contact your dealer or installer immediately.

●

Be sure to have the installer show you where and how to turn off the power supply to
the range (i.e. location of the main fuse or circuit breaker panel) and where and how
to turn off the gas supply to the range in an emergency.

●

Do not leave children alone – Children should not be left alone or unattended in the
area where the appliance is in use. They should never be allowed to play with the
appliance or to sit or stand on any part of the appliance.

●

Caution – for safety reasons, do not store items of interest to children in cabinets
above a range or at the back of the range – children climbing on the range to reach
items could be seriously injured.

●

Wear proper apparel – Loose-fitting or hanging garments should never be worn while
using the appliance.

●

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. Technicians must disconnect the appliance from the power supply before
any servicing.

●

Storage in or on appliance – Flammable materials should not be stored in an oven or

SAFETY AND WARNINGS

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS!

●

Safe food handling: leave food in the oven for as short a time as possible before and
after cooking. This is to avoid contamination by organisms which may cause food
poisoning. Take particular care during warmer weather.

●

Clean only the parts listed in this manual.

●

Do not use a steam cleaner to clean any part of the appliance.

●

Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air to the appliance.

●

The oven of your range cannot be used in the event of a power failure. Do not attempt
to operate these during power failure.

●

Do not use aluminum foil to line any part of the oven or cooktop. This will cause heat
to be trapped underneath it. This trapped heat can upset the cooking performance
and damage the finish of the oven or cooktop parts.

●

Do not place any dishes, trays, water or ice directly on the oven floor during cooking,
as doing so will irreversibly damage the porcelain enamel finish.

●

For safety reasons, the cooktop burner flame size should be adjusted so it does not
extend beyond the edge of the cookware.

●

Use cookware of the appropriate size and construction for the type of cooking. This
appliance is equipped with burners of different sizes. Cookware must be matched
to the size of the burner. Select utensils with flat bottoms large enough to cover the
burner flames. The use of undersize utensils will expose a portion of the burner flames
to direct contact and may result in ignition of clothing. Proper relationships of utensil
to burner will also improve efficiency.

●

Protective liners – Do not use aluminum foil to line grease drip-pans or oven bottoms.

●

Glazed cooking utensils – only 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.

●

Utensil handles should be turned inward and not extend over adjacent cooktop
burners – 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 cooktop
burners.

●

The Governor of California is required to publish a list of substances known to the
State of California to cause cancer or reproductive harm and requires businesses to
warn customers of potential exposures to such substances.

●

WARNING!: This product emits exhaust that contains chemicals known to the State
of California to cause cancer, birth defects, and other reproductive harm.To reduce
the risk from such chemicals, make sure this appliance is installed, operated, and
maintained according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
