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 yeflow 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 valveand 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 Insuucdons.

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

installers or service technicians.

_:;i_'Do not attempt to repair or replace any

part of your range unless it is specifically

recommended in this manual. All other
service should be refetTed to a qna]ified

technician,

outlet only. Do not remove the round
grounding prong fiom dm ping. If in doubt

about the grounding of the home electrical
system, it is your personal responsibility and

obligation to haxe an ungrounded outlet

A 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 andprevent hazardous accumulations of food, since

heavy spattering or spiflovers 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
hax.e ignimd.

_::Nex.er leave file snrlCace l)nrners unattended

at high flame settings. Boilox.ers cause
smoking and greasy spillox.ers that m W

catch oil fii.e.

;fi:,iAdjust tile top burner flame size so it

does not exmnd 1)evond file edg.e of tile
cookware. Excessix.e flame is hazardous.

_7{_:Use only dU pot holders--moist or damp

pot holders oil hot surfaces may result in
bnrlls from smam. Do not let pot holders

come ileal open flames when lifting
cookware. Do not use a towel or other

bulky cloth in place of a pot holder

_?{:_V_]mn using glass cookware, make sni.e it

is designed for mI>of-rang-e cooking.

_:_To minimize tile possibility of bm_ls,

ignition of flammable materials and spillag.e,

turn cookware handles toward tile side or

back of tile rang> without exMnding ox.er

adjacent burners.

_7_:Carefldly watch foods being fcied at a high

flame setting.
;f; Always heat laat slowly, and watch as it heats.
;f; Do not leave any imms oil the cooktop. Tile

hot air from tile x.ent m W ignim flammable

imms and will increase pressure in closed

containers, which may cause tilem to bnrst.

when food is added.

_?{:_Do not flame foods on die cooktop. If you do

flame foods trader die hood, turn die t_anon.

Do not use a wok oil die cooking surface

if die wok has a rotmd metal ring fllat is

Usingthe oven.

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.

Oven Vent

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

when cooking in tile oven--it is important
that tile flow of hot air fl'om tile oven

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

ol)enings or nearby suI_fhces during oven or
broiler ope_wtion--they may become hot.

Toremove a shelf, pull it toward you, tilt tile
