Save these instructions for future reference,

Stepping, leaning or sitting on the door or drawers of a range can result in serious injuries and also cause damage to the appliance. DO NOT

Never use your appliance for warming or heating the room.

Do not use the oven, warmer drawer or lower oven (if equipped) for storage.

= Storage in or on appliance--flammable materials

should not be stored in an oven, warmer drawer, near surface units or in the storage drawer, 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 range.

be allowed to sit or stand on any part of the appliance, including the storage drawer, lower broiler drawer,

warmer drawer or lower double oven.

IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING YOUR OVEN

• Use care when opening oven door, lower oven door or warmer drawer (if equipped)--Sta nd 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.

= Do not touch surface heating units or surface

cooking elements, areas near these units or elements, or interior surface of the oven. Both

surface heating and oven heating elements may behot even though they are dark in color. Areas near surface cooking units 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 oven door window.

• 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 attempt to operate the range during a power failure. If the power fails, always turn offthe

range. If the range is not turned off and the power resumes, the range will begin to operate again. Once the

power resumes, reset the clock and oven function.

Keep oven vent ducts unobstructed. The oven vent

is located under the left rear surface element if your model isequipped with coil elements. The oven vent is located below the backguard for models equipped with ceramic-glass cook tops. 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 interior 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 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.

Protective liners--Do not use aluminum foil to line the

oven bottom. Only use aluminum foil as recommended in

this manual. Improper installation of these liners may

result in risk of electric shock, or fire.

COIL COOK TOP MODELS

IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING

YOUR COOKTOP

• Know which knob controls each surface heating unit. Place a pan of food on the unit before turning it on,

and turn the unit off before removing the pan.

• Use proper pan size--This appliance is equipped with one or more surface units of different sizes. 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 element will also improve efficiency.

• Utensil handles should be turned inward and not

extend over adjacent surfaceelements--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 units.

Never leave surface elements unattended at high heat settings--Boilovers causesmoking 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 unit drip bowls, or reflector pans. Only use

aluminum foil as recommended inthis manual. Improper installation of these liners may result in risk

of electric shock, or fire.

• 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.

Do not immerse orsoak removable heating

elements_Heating elements should never be immersed in water. Heating elements clean themselves during normal operation.

Glazed cooking utensils--Only certain types of glass,

glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed utensils are suitable for cook top service without breaking due to the sudden change in temperature. Check the manufacturer's recommendations for cook top use.
