Porcelain ovenInterior

(on all models except Continuous-Cleaning Models) With proper care, the porcelain enamel interior will

retain its attractive finish for many years. Soap and water will normally do thejob. Heavy

spattering or spillovers may require cleaning with a mild abrasive cleanser. Soapy,wet pads may also be used. Do not allow food spillswith a high sugar or acid content (such as milk, tomatoes, sauertiaut, fruit juicesor pie filling) to remain on the surface. They may cause dull spots even after cleaning.

Household ammonia may make the cleaningjob easier. Place 1/2 cup ammonia in a shallow glass pan and leave in a cold oven overnight. The ammonia

AmericanGasAssociationaccordingtoANSI221.1, latest edition and CanadianGas Association according to CANICGA-1.Ilatest edition.As with any applianceusing gas and generating heat, there are certain safetyprecautions you should follow.Youwillfind these precautions in the Important SafetyInstructions in the front ofthis book. Read them carefully.

~ Haveyour range installedby a qua~ed

installer or service technician.

~Yourrange must be electricallygrounded in accordance with localCO*<Sor, in the absence of localcodes, in accordancewith the National Electrical Code (ANS1/NFPA70,latest edition). In Canada,electricalgrounding must be in accordancewithtie current CSAC22.1Canadian ElectricalCode Part 1 and/or localcodes. See Electrical Connectionsin this section.

~ Before installingyour range on linoleum or any other synthetic floorcovering, make sure the floor covering can withstand 180°R without shrinking, warpiiig or discoloring.Do not install the range over carpeting unless a sheet of 1/4” thick plywoodor similarinsulator is placed between the range and carpeting.

s Make sure the wallcoverings around the range can withstid heat generated by the range up to 200°R

~Avoidplacing cabinets above the range. To

reduce the hazard caused by reaching over the

open flames of operatingburners, install a ventilationhood over the range that projects forwardat leastWbeyondthe tiont ofthe cabinets.

~The ventilatinghood must be constructed of sheet metal not less than 0.0122”thick. Install abovethe cooktopwith a clearance ofnot less

than 114”between the hood and the underside ofthe combustiblematerialor metal cabinet.The hood must beat leastaswideas the appfianceand centered over the appliance.Clearance between the coohg surfaceandtheventilationhood stice mm mR BE m m 24 mcm.

ExtensionCord Cautions

Because ofpotential safety hazards associated

with certain conditions,we strongly recommend

againstthe use ofan extension cord. However, ifyou sti~ elect to use an extension cord, it is absolutelynecessary that it be a UL-listed, 3-wiregrounding-type applianceextension cord and that the current carrying rating ofthe cord in amperes be equivalentto, or greater than, the branch circuit rating.

because disconnecting ofthe powercord

places undue stiain on the adapter and leads to
