WARNING!

IMPORTANTSAFETYNOtiCE

The Califomb Safe Drinking Water and ToxicEnforcement Act requires the Governor of Califomb 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 blubh 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

When using electrical appfiances, basic safety precautions should be foflowed, including the following:

WARNING!

SURFACEBURNERS

Use proper pan size--a void 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. Use pans with handles that can be easily grasped

and remain cool.

_; Alwavs use the LITEposition when igniting

fl_e top burners and make sme tile burners
have ignited.

E:,:Nex.er leave file smlaace bun_ers unattended

at hiO_ flame setfing:s. Boilox.ers cause
smoking and gi.easy spillox.ers that m W

catch on fire.

;fi:,iAdjust die top burner flame size so it does

not exmnd beyond tile edge of the

cookware. Excessi_.e flame is hazardous.

_?{:_Use only d U pot holders--moist or damp

pot holders on hot sniiCaces may I.esult in
burns flom smam. 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

E:':When using glass cookwaI.e, make sure it

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

_{_To minimize tile possibility of burlls, ignition

of flammable materials and spillag.e, turn
cookware handles reward file side or back

of file rang.e without exmnding ox.er

adjacent burners.

_{_Careflllly watch tbods being flied at a higtl

flame seuing.

_:;Do not flame fbods on d_e cooktop. If you do

flame foods under file hood, mm the £m on.

_?{::Do not use a wok on the cooking surface

if fl_e wok has a round metal ring fl_at is
placed ox,er the burner gram to support tile

wok. Tiffs ling acts as a heat trap, which m W
damag.e the burner gram and burner head.

Also, it may cause the burner m work
improperly. Tills may cause a carbon

monoxide ]ex.e] abox.e flint allowed by cnil.ent

standards, resulting in a healfll hazard.

E:,:Foods for flTing should be as d U as possible.

Frost on flozen foods or moisun_e on flesh
foods can cause hot fiat to bubble/l I) and

ox.er file sides of tile pan.

E:,:Never tIT to mo\.e a pan of hot fat, especially

a deep fat flTer V(ait until tile fat is cool.

E:,:Do not leax.e plastic imms on the cooktop---

_{_Alwavs heat fi_t slowl> and watch as it heats.
_{_Do not lem.e any items on the cookmp. Tile

hot air flom file x.ent m W ignite flammable
imms and will increase pressure in closed

a plug at the other end that goes

Adjustthe upperoventhermostat--Do it yourself! ge.com

Youmay find that your new oven cooks differently than the one it replaced. Use your new oven for a few weeks
to become more familiar with it. If you still think your new oven is too hot or too cold, you can adjust the
thermostat yourself.

Do not use thermometers, such as those found in grocery stores, to check the temperature setting of your oven.
These thermometers may vary 20-40 degrees.

NOTE: This adjustment will not affect the broiling or the self-cleaning temperatures. The adjustment will be

Most recipes for baking have been developed using high fat products such as butter or margarine (80% fat).

If you decrease the fat, the recipe may not give the same results as with a higher fat product.

Recipe failure can result if cakes, pies, pastries, cookies or candies are made with low-fat spreads. The lower

the fat content of a spread product, the more noticeable these differences become.

Do not locate the range where it may be subject to strong drafts. Any openings in the floor or waft
behind the range should be sealed. Make sure the openings around the base of the range that
supply fresh air for combustion and ventilation are not obstructed by carpeting or woodwork.

Your range, like manv other household items,

is heavv and can settle into soft floor coverings

such as cushioned vinyl or caq)eting. Use care

when moving tile range on this £:pe oI flooring.

It is recommended that tile following simple and
inexpensive instructions be tollowed to protect

VOILE _1OOI:

Tile range should be installed on a sheet of
plywood (or similar material). X*\]/en tile floor

covering ends at tile fl'ont ot tile range, tile area
that tile range will rest on should be built up

with plywood to tile same level or higher than

tile floor covering.

This Mll allow tile range to be moved tot cleaning
or servicing. Also, make sm'e yore" floor covering
will withstand 180°E (See the Installation Safety

Instructions section.)

Make sure tile wall coverings around yore" range
can withst;md the heat generated (up to 200°F)

by tile range. (See tile Installation Safety Instructions
section.)

Effective January f, 1996,the National Electric Code
requires that new construction (not existing) utilize

a 4-conductor connection to an electric range.

[] Replace the Power Cord (Optional)

Perform this step only if the power cord shipped on the range does not match your wall receptacle.

A range cord rated at 40 amps with 195/250

minimum volt range is required. A 50-amp
range cord is not recommended but if used,

it should be marked fin" use with nominal 1:_"
diameter connection openings. Care should

be taken to center the cable and strain relief

within the knockout hole to keep the edge

fl'om damaging the cable.
