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

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 LITE I)osifion when igniting
the top burners and make sure the burners
haxe ignimd.
Nexer leaxe file surface 1)nrners unattended

Forovens without a preheatibdlcator //_ht or tone,
preheat 10minutes.
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.
Cut slits in the foil just like the grid.
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

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
