Grounding Instructions (electric ignition models only)

Avoid fire hazard or electrical shock. Do not use an adapter plug,

an extension cord, or remove grounding prong from electrical power cord.
Failure to follow this warning can cause serious injury, fire or death.

This appliance is equipped with a 3-prong grounding plug for

your protection against shock hazard and should be plugged directly into a
properly grounded receptacle. DO NOT cut or remove the grounding prong from

this plug.
For personal safety, the range must be properly grounded. For maximum safety,

the power cord must be plugged into an electrical outlet that is correctly polarized

If a 2-prong wall receptacle is the only available outlet, it is the personal
responsibility of the consumer to have it replaced with a properly grounded 3-

prong wall receptacle installed by a qualified electrician.

• See Installation Instructions.
_To reduce the risk of

tipping, the rangemust be secured by

NEVER use this appliance as a space heater

to heat or warm the room. Doing so may result in carbon
monoxide poisoning.

NEVER cover any slots, holes or passages in

the oven bottom 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
trap heat, causing a fire hazard.

Stepping, leaning or sitting on the doors or

drawers of this range can result in serious injuries and
also cause damage to the range. Do not allow children to
climb or play around the range. The weight ofa child on an open
door may cause the range to tip, resulting in serious burns or

Do not store items of interest to children in

the cabinets above a range or on the backguard of a
range. Children climbing on the range to reach itemscould be

seriously injured.

Never Use Your Appliance for Warming or

Heating the Room.

• Storage in or on Appliance--Flammable materials
should not be stored in an oven, warmer drawer, near
surface burners or in the storage drawer. This includes
paper, plastic and cloth items, such ascookbooks, plasticware
and towels, as well as flammable liquids. Do not store
explosives, such as aerosol cans, on or near the range.

, Do Not Leave Children Alone--Children should not beleft 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 BURNERS ORINTERIOR 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 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 itclosely. Fat or grease may

catch fire if allowed to become too hot.

, Use Only Dry Potholders--Moist or damp potholders on hot

surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do not let potholders
touch hot heating burners. 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 ifit is to be stored

or discarded.

IMPORTANT--ELECTRIC IGNITION MODELS ONLY: Donotattempt
to operate the oven during a power failure. Ifthe power fails, always

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

reset the clock and oven function.

IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING YOUR

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 burner flame to
direct contact and may result in ignition of clothing. Proper
relationship of utensil to flame will also improve efficiency.

, Know which 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 the flame
so it does 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
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 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 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. Check the manufacturer's
recommendations for cooktop use.

IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING YOUR OVEN
, UseCareWhen 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 allow dripping fat to drain and be kept away from the high
heat of the broiler.

, Do not cover the broiler insertwith 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 the unit

has been in temperatures above 32°F (0°C) for at least 3 hours
before turning on the power to the appliance.

IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR CLEANING
YOUR RANGE

, Clean the range regularly to keep all parts free of grease that

could catch fire. Pay particular attention to the area underneath
each surface element. Do not allow grease to accumulate. Refer

to the range manufacturer's instructions for cleaning.

,Kitchen cleaners and aerosols--Always follow the

manufacturer's recommended directions for use. Be aware

that excess residue from cleaners and aerosols may ignite

causing damage and injury.

SELF CLEANING OVENS

, Clean in the self-cleaning cycle only the parts listed in this

Owner's 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.

OVEN VENT

Fig. 1

Oven Vent Location

The oven vent is located below the backguard (See Fig. 1). When the oven is
on, warm air is released through this vent. This venting is necessary for proper air
circulation in the oven and good baking results. DO NOT BLOCK THE VENT.

Arranging Oven Racks

ALWAYS ARRANGE OVEN RACKS WHEN THE OVEN IS COOL (PRIOR TO

OPERATING THE OVEN). Always use oven mitts when using the oven.

Removing & Replacing Oven Racks

To remove, pull the rack forward until it stops. Lift up front of rack and slide out.
To replace, fit the rack onto the guides on the oven walls. Tilt the front of the rack
upward and slide the rack back into place.
