For your safety, the information in this manual must be followed to minimize the risk of fire or explosion,

electric shock, or to prevent property damage, personal injury, or loss of life.

WARNINGANTI-TIPDEVICE

All ranges can tip andinjury could result.

Toprevent accidental tipping of the range, attach it to the waft by installing the Anti--tip device supplied.

If the Anti--tip device supplied with the range does not fit this application, use the universal Anti--tip

device WB2X7909.

Tocheck if the device is installed and engaged properly, carefully tip the range forward. The Anti--tip device should engage and pravent

the range from tipping over.

IMPORTANTSAFETYNOtiCE

The Californb Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act requires the Governor of

California to publish a list of substances known

to the state to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm, and requires businesses to

warn customers of potential exposure to such substances.

If you pull file rang_ out flom file wall %r any reason, make snre the device is properly

eng_ged when you push the tange back ag:_inst the wall. If it is not, there is a pos0ble risk of the

range tipping over and causing inju U if yon or a child stand, sit or lean on an open door

Please refer to the Anti-Tip device information in this manual. Failure to take this precaution

could resuh in tipping of the range and inju U.

The fiberglass insulation in self-clean ovens gives off a very small amount of carbon monoxide during the cleaning cycle. Exposure can be minimized by venting with an open window or using a ventilation

fan or hood.

SAFETYPRECAUtiONS

When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should be followed, including the following:

Use this appliance only for its intended pm])ose as described in this )wne_ s Manual.

Be sure your appliance is properly installed and gaounded by a qualified technician in

accordance with the provided installation

instructions.

Do not attempt to repair or replace any

part of your range unless it is specifically

recommended in this manual. All other servicing should be refe_xed to a qualified

tech nician.

Before performing any service, disconnect the range power supply at the household

disuibufion panel by _emoving the fllse or

switching off the circuit breaker

(

Do not leme children alone----r'hildren should not be left alone or unattended in

an area where an appliance is in use. They should nexer be allowed to sit or stand on

any part of the appliance. Do not allow anyone to climb, stand or

hang on fl_e doo,; storage drawel, wamfing

drawel; or cooktop. They could damage the

rang_ and even tip it ovel; causing se_re

personal injm T.

Do not store flammable materials in an o'_en

or near the cooktop.

CAUtiON-Items of interestto

children should not be stored in cabinets

aboxe a range or on the backsplash of a range--children climbing on the range to

reach items could be seriously injured.

but generally cook evenh' at low to inediuln heat settings. Steel pans Inay cook tmevenlv

For best cooking results, pans should be fiat on tile bottom. Match tile size of tile

Wok Cooking

We recommendthat youuse onlya flat-bottomed wok. Theyareavailable at your localretail store.

Do not rise woks that have supl)ort tings.

Use of these types of woes, with or without

Preheatingand Pan Placement

Preheat the oven if tile redpe calls fin" it. To preheat, set the oven at tile correct

temperature. Preheating is necessaiw fin. good results when baldng cakes, cookies,

past U and b*'eads.

Forovenswithout a preheat ihdleatorlight or tone,

preheat 10m/butes.

Onsome models,the d/spley w/71show "PilE" while preheat/bg.When theovenreachesthe

selected temperature,the ovencontrol will beep and thed/spleywill show the oven temperature.

Federal standards require products labeled "marga_-h_e" to contain at least 80% tilt by

weight, ix)\_qilt spreads, on the other hand, contain less tilt and more water. The high moisture content of these spreads affects

the texture and flavor of baked goods. For best results with your old til\'ofite redpes,

rise margarine, butter or stick spreads containing at least 70% vegetable oil.

Baking results will be better if baking pans

are centered in tile o_ ell as Ill[/ch as possible. Pans should not touch each ()tiles"

or tile walls of tile oven. If vou need to use two shelves, stagger tile pans so one is not

directly abo\v tile other; and leave appro_mately 1½" Kern tile fl'ont ot tile

Aluminum Foil

Never cover the oven bottom with aluminum foil.

You can use ahmfinum fi)il to line the

broiler pan and broiler g_id. Howexe_;

you must mold the fifil tightly to the

gt'id and cut slits in it just like the grid.

_Muminum fi)il may also be used m catch a spilloveL To do so, place a small sheet of

fifil on a lower shelf several inches below the tood.

Never entirely cover a shelf with aluminum toil. This will disturb the heat circulation

and result in poor baking.
