WARNING!

IMPORTANTSAFETYNOTICE

The California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement 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 yeflow flame, will minimize
incomplete combustion. Exposure to these substances can be minimized by venting with an open

window or using a ventilation fan orhood.

SAFETYPRECAUTIONS

Have the installer show you the location of the range gas shut-off valve and how to shut it off if necessary.

Hate your rang_ installed and properly Plug your rang_ into a 190_\_lt grounded
grounded by a qualified installer, in

accordance with the Installation Insuucfions.

Any adjustment and service should be
perfo,_ned only by qualified gas rang>

installers or service technicians.

Do not attempt to repair or replace any

part of your range unless it is specifically

recommended in this manual. All other

A WARNIN6!

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 andprevent 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
haxe ignimd.

Nexer leaxe file surface 1)nrners unattended

at high flame setting:s. Boiloxers cause
smoking and greasy spilloxers that m W

catch on file.

Adjust tile top burner flame size so it
does not exmnd 1)evond die edge of tile

cookware. Excessixe flame is hazardous.

Use only dU pot holders--moist or damp
pot holders on hot surfaces may resuh in

bnrlls from smam. Do not let pot holders
come near open flames when lifting

cookware. Do not use a towel or other
bulky c]oti/in place of a pot holder

V_]mn using ,glass cookware, make snle it

Oven Vent

_ur (wen is vented through ducts at tile
rear ot the range. Do not block these ducts

when cooking in the oven--it is important
that the flow of hot air from the oven

and fl'esh air to tile oven burner be
tminterrul)ted. Avoid touching tile vent

ol)enings or nearby SUlti_ces during oven or
broiler operation--they may become hot.

Toremove a shelf, pull it toward you, tilt tile

Preheating and Pan Placement

Preheat tile oven it tile recipe calls for it.
To l)reheat, set tile oven at tile correct

temperature. Preheating is necessary fl)r
good results when baking cakes, cookies,

past_ T and breads.

Forovens without a preheatibdlcator //_ht or tone,
preheat 10minutes.

Aluminum Foil

Never cover the oven bottom wi_h
aluminum foil.

You can use ahmfinum fl)il to line the

broiler pan and broiler grid. Howe\'el;

you must mold the foil tightly to the

grid and cut slits in it just like the grid.

Baking results will be better if baking pans
are centered in the oven as much as

possible. Pans should not touch each other
or the walls of the oven. If you need to use

two shelves, stagger the pans so one is not
direcflv above the othe_; and leave

appro_mately 1½" between pans, fl'om
the fl'ont, back and sides of the wall.

_Mmninmn flfil may also be used to catch
a spillove_: To (lo so, place a small sheet of

fifil on a lower shelf several inches below
tile fi)o(l.

Never entirely cover a shelf with ahmfinum
fi)il. This will disturb tile heat circulation

and result in poor baking.

If your model has a door latch, do not lock the oven door with the latch during timed cooking. The latch is used for

self-cleaning only.
NOTE" Foods that spoil easily--such as milk, eggs, fish, stuffings, poultry and pork--should not be allowed to s# for
