WARNING!
IMPORTANTSAFETYNOTICE
The California Safe Drinking Water and ToxicEnforcement Act requires the Governor of California to
publish a list of substances known to the state to cause birth defects or other reproductive harm, and
requires businesses to warn customers of potential exposure to such substances.
Gasappliances can cause minor exposure to four of these substances, namely benzene, carbon
monoxide, formaldehyde and soot, caused primarily by the incomplete combustion of natural gas or
LP fuels. Properly adjusted burners, indicated by a bluish rather than a yellow flame, will minimize
incomplete combustion. Exposure to these substances can be minimized by venting with an open
window or using a ventilation fan or hood.
SAFETYPRECAUTIONS
Have the installer show you the location of the range gas shut-off valve and how to shut it off if necessary.
Have your range installed and properly
grounded by a qualified installe_, in
accordance with the Installation Instructions.
Any ad,justment and ser\,ice should be
performed only by qualified gas range
installers or ser\,ice technicians.
Do not atmmpt to repair or replace any
part of your range unless it is specifically
recommended in this manual. All other
serx,ice should be referred m a qualified
technician.
Plug your range into a 190woh grounded
outlet only. Do not remove the round
grounding prong f_om the plug. If in doubt
about the grounding of the home electrical
system, it is your personal responsibility and
obligation to have an ungrounded outlet
replaced with a properly grounded,
three-prong outlet in accordance with
the National Electrical Code. Do not use
an exmnsion cord with this appliance.

personal in,jm T.
CAUTION:,te,nsofi.terestto
children should not be stored in cabinets
above a range or on the backsplash of a
range--children climbing on the range
to reach items could be seriously in,jured.
A WARNING:NEVERusethis
appliance as a space hearer m heat or
warm the room. Doing so may result
in carbon monoxide poisoning and
overheating of the oven.
4
Never wear loose fitting or han_ng garments
while using the appliance. Be careful when
reaching for imms stored in cabinets over the
range. Flammable material could be i_dted
if brought in contact with flame or hot oven
surfaces and may cause severe burns.
Do not store flammable materials in an
oven, a range storage drawer, a warming
drm_,er or near a cooktop.
Do not store or use combustible mamrials,
gasoline or other flammable vapors and
liquids in the x,icinity of this or any other
appliance.
Do not let cooking grease or other
flammable materials accumulate in or
near the range.
Do not use water on _ease fires. Never pick
up a flaming pan. Turn the controls oil
Smother a flaming pan on a surface burner
by covering the pan completely with a
well-fitting lid, cookie sheet or flat tray.
Use a multi-purpose d U chemical or
foam-type fire extinguisher:
Flaming grease outside a pan can be put
out by covering it with baking soda or,
if available, by using a muhi-purpose dU
chemical or fkmm-type fire extinguisher.
Flame in the oven or warming drawer can be
smothered completely by closing the oven
door and turning the control m off or by

WARNING!
SURFACEBURNERS
Use proper pan size--avoid pans that are unstable or easily tipped. Select cookware having flat bottoms
large enough to cover burner grates. Toavoid spillovers, make sure cookware is large enough to contain
the food properly. This will both save cleaning time and prevent hazardous accumulations of food, since
heavy spattering or spillovers left on range can ignite. Usepans with handles that can be easily grasped
and remain cool
Always use the LITEposition when igniting
the top burners and make sure the burners
have i_lited.
Never leave the surface burners unattended
at high flame settings. Boilovers cause
smoking and _easy spillovers that may
catch on fire.
Adjust the mp burner flame size so it
does not exmnd beyond the edge of the
cookware. Excessive flame is hazardous.
Use only d U pot holders--moist or damp
pot holders on hot surfhces may result in
burns fiom steam. Do not let pot holders
come near open flames when lifting
cookware. Do not use a towel or other
bulky cloth in place of a pot holder
When using glass cookware, make sure it
is designed for top-of range cooking.
To minimize the possibility of burns,
ignition of flammable materials and spillage,
turn cookware handles reward the side or
back of the range without exmnding over
adjacent burners.
Carefully watch foods being flied at a high
flame setting.
Always heat fat slowly, and watch as it heats.
Do not leave any items on the cooktop. The
hot air fiom the vent may i_fite flammable
imms and will increase pressure in closed
containers, which may cause them m burst.
If a combination of oils or fats will be used in
flying, stir together before heating or as fats
meh slowly.
Use a deep fht thermometer whenever
possible to prevent overheating fat beyond
the smoking point.
Use the least possible amount of fat f_)r
effective shallow or deep-fat flying. Filling
the pan too full of fat can cause spillovers
when food is added.
Do not flame f_)ods on the cooktop. Kyou do
flame fk)ods under the hood, turn the fro1 on.
Do not use a wok on the cooking surface
if the wok has a round metal ring that is
placed over the burner _ate to support
the wok. This ring acts as a heat trap,
which may damage the burner grate and
burner head. Also, it may cause the burner
to work improperly. This may cause a
carbon monoxide level above that
allowed by current standards, resulting
in a health hazard.
Foods for flying should be as dU as possible.
Frost on fiozen foods or moisture on fiesh
foods can cause hot fat to bubble up and
over the sides of the pan.
Never tU to move a pan of hot fat, especially
a deep fat flyer Wait until the fht is cool.
Do not leave plastic items on the cooktop--
they may melt if left too close to the vent.
Keep all plastics away from the surface
burners.
To avoid the possibility of a burn, always be
certain that the controls fbr all burners are
at the OFF position and 'all _ates are cool
befbre attempting to remove them.
If range is located near a window, do not
hang long curtains that could blow over the
surface burners and create a fire hazard.
If you smell gas, turn off the gas to the range
and call a qualified serx,ice technician. Never
use an open flame to locam a leak.
Always turn the surface burner controls off
before remox,Jng cookware.
Do not lift the cookmp on sealed burner
models. Lifting the cookmp can lead
to damage and improper operation of
the range.

Toavoid possible bums, place the shelves in the desired position before you turn the oven on.
Before you begin...
Theoven has 5 shelf positions.
It also has a special low shelf
position (R)for extra large items,
such as a large turkey.
Plastic items on the cooktop may
melt if left too close to the vent.
Vent appearance and location vary.
The sheNes have stop-locks, so fllat when
placed correctly on file shelf supports
(A fllrougb E), they Mll stop before
coming completely out, and Mll not flit.
When placing and removing cookware,
pull the shelf out to the bump on the
shelf support.
Oven Vent
Your oven is vented fllrougb ducts at the
rear of file range. Do not block fllese ducts
when cooking in the oven--it is important
that the flow of hot air from the oven
aim flesh air m the oven burner be
uninmrrupmd. Avoid touching the vent
openings or nearby surfaces during oven or
broiler operaflon--tbey may become hot.
