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 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:

part of your range unless it is specifically
recommended in this manual. All other servicing should be refeITed to a qualified
technician.
Before performing any service, disconnect the range power supply at the household
disuibufion panel by removing tile fuse or

WARNING!
SURFACEBURNERS
Use proper pan size--a void pans that are unstable or easily tipped. Select cookware having fiat bottoms large enough to cover burner grates. Toavoid spillovers, make sure cookware is large enough to contain
the food properlv. Thiswill 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
_; Alwavs use the LITE position when igniting
fire top burners and make sme tile burners have ignited.
E:,:Nex.er leave file sm/2ace bun_ers unattended
at hiOr flame setting:s. Boilox.ers cause smoking alrd gi.easy spillox.ers that mav

Stove Top Grills
Do not use stove top grills on your sealed gas burnei_. If you use tile stove top grill
on tile sealed gas burner, it will cause

above allowable current standards.
Glass: There are two types ot glass
cookware---those fi)r ()veil tlse only and
those fi)r top-olXi'ange cooking (saucepans, coffee and teapots). Glass conducts heat
very slowly
Heatproof Glass Ceramic: Can be used if)r either sui_i_ce or ()veil cooking. It conducts
heat veIT slowly and cools very slowly: Check
cookware i/lant/lilCttlrer's directions to be

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.

such as cushioned vinyl or caq)eting. Use care
when moving tile range on this £:pe oI flooring.
