IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with redu­ced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowled­ge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
All our cooking appliances are intended for domestic use only, i.e., not profes­sional and was designed to be used by individuals in their own homes. It is not intended to be used outside the building. In the event of non-domestic use, the manufacturer shall not incur any liability, and the warranty shall be considered void.
In Case of Fire
Do not use water on grease fires. Never pick up a flaming pan. Turn
the controls off. Smother a flaming pan on a cooktop burner by cove­ring the pan completely with a well fitting lid or baking tray. If available use a multipurpose dry chemical or foam-type fire extinguisher. If fire is in an oven pan, smother by closing oven door. Open doors and win­dows or if a hood is fitted turn it on to remove smoke and odor.
To Prevent Fire or Smoke Damage
Before using the range make sure all the packing materials have been remo­ved. Always keep the area around the range free from combustible materials, gasoline, and other flammable vapors and liquids. If the range is installed near a window, proper precautions should be taken to prevent curtains from blowing over the burners.
NEVER leave any items on the range cooktop. The hot air from an oven
vent may ignite flammable items and may increase pressure in closed contai­ners, which may cause them to burst. Many aerosol-type spray cans are EXPLOSIVE when exposed to heat and may be highly flammable. Avoid their use or storage near an appliance.
Many plastics will burn and most are damaged by heat. Keep plastic items away from parts of the range that may become warm or hot. Do not leave plastic items on the cooktop as they may burn, melt or soften if left too close to a vent or a lighted burner

08NOTINSTALFE8/USA-1
Exposure to these substances can also be minimized by properly venting with an open window or using a ventilation fan or hood.
To reduce the risk from substances in the fuel or from fuel combustion make sure this appliance is installed, operated, and maintained according to the instructions in this booklet.
u Quality of Flames - On Natural Gas the burners’ flames should be a blueish
color with, at most, a slight yellowish fringe. On Propane gas the flames may be "softer". The cooktop burner flames may have a slight yellowish tip. If the flame burns with a long white tip you should call for service.
MAKE SURE THE FLOW OF COMBUSTION AND VENTILATION AIR TO THE RANGE IS UNOBSTRUCTED.
DO NOT TOUCH SURFACE UNITS, AREAS NEAR UNITS, HEATING ELEMENTS OR INTERIOR SURFACES OF OVEN - Surface units and hea­ting elements may be hot even though they are dark in color. Areas near sur­face units and interior surfaces of an oven may become hot enough to cause burns. During and after use, do not touch, or let clothing or other flammable mate­rials contact surface units, areas near units, heating elements or interior sur­faces of oven until they have had sufficient time to cool. Other surface of the appliance may become hot enough to cause burns - among these surfaces are oven vent openings and surface near these openings, oven doors, etc.
IMPORTANT: Never keep pet birds in the kitchen or in rooms where the fumes from the kitchen could reach. Birds have a very sensitive respiratory system. Fumes released due to overheated cooking oil, fat, margarine and overheated non-stick cookware may be harmful.
