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. Gas appliances 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 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
Have the installer show you the location of the range gas shut-off valve and how to shut it off if necessary.
Have yOtlI" range installed and propeity Plug your range into a 120-voh grounded grounded by a qualified installel, in

SAFETYPRECAUTIONS
Locate the range out of kitchen traffic path
and out of drafty locations to prexent poor air citvulafion.
Be sure all packaging materials are remoxed flom the range before operating it
to prevent fire or smoke damage should the
packaging material ignite.
Be sure your range is correctly adjusted by a qualified service teclmician or installer for
the type of gas (natural or LP) that is to be used. Your range can be converted for use
with either type of gas. See the Installation of
the range section.
WARNING: tesead>stmentsmnst

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 spiflovers, 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
Always use tile LITEposition when ignidng
the top burners arrd make sure the burners

cool<ware. Do not use a towel or oilier bu]kv clofll in place of a pot holder
When using glass cool<ware, make sure it is designed for mI>-of-rang> cooking.
To minimize tile possibility of bums, ignition of flammable materials arrd spillage, turn

Use fire least possible amount of fat for effecfixe shallow or deep-lZat ruing. Filling
tire pan mo fill of fiat can cause spilloxers
when food is added.
When flaming foods are under dre hood, turn tire fan oft: Tile tzan, if operating, m W

Do not use a wok on fire cooking surlZace
if tire wok has a round metal ring that is placed ox>r fire burner gxam m support tire
wok. This ring acts as a heat trap, which m W damag_ the burner gram and burner head.
Also, it m W cause tile burner m work improperly. This may cause a carbon

cu_Tent standards, resulting in a healfll
hazard. Foods for flTing should be as d_T as possible.
Frost on Dozen foods or moisun-e on fresh tbods can cause hot fiat m bubble up and

Oven Vent
Your oven is vented through ducts at the

when cooking in the oven--it is important that the flow (ff hot air ti'om the oven and
ti'esh air to the oven burner be
uninterrui_ted. Avoid touching the vent openings or nearby stlrtilces during oven or

two shelves, stagger the pans so one is not directly above the other; and leave
approMmately 1½" bet_ven pans, from the fl'ont, back and sides ot the wall.
Muminum fi)il may also be used to catch a spillove_: To do so, place a small sheet of
