When you get your new range...

I

—

Have it installed and properly grounded by a qualified installer.
Have the installer show you the location of the range circuit breaker or fuse, and

mark it for easy reference.
Don’t assume that you know how to operate all parts of the range. Some features

may work differently from those on your previous range.
Do take the time to read our suggestionsfor best use.

When usingyour range...

DO NOT TOUCH HEATING ELEMENTS OR INTERIOR SURFACE OF OVEN.

These surfaces may be hot enough to burn even though they are dark in color.

During and after use, do not touch, or let clothing or other flammable materials

contact any heating elements or interior area of oven until all of these areas

have had sufficient time to COOLOther potentially hot surfaces include the
cooktop and areas facing the cooktop, oven vent openings and surfaces near
the openings, crevices around the oven door and the edges of the doorwindo

Don’t leave children alone or unattended in the area where a range is hot or
in operation, They could be severely burned.

—.

—.

Don’t allow anyone to climb, stand or hang on the door, drawer or top surface

of the range. They could damage the range and even tip it overcausing severe

personal injury.

CAUTION: IX) NOT STORE ITEMS OF INTEREST TO CHUXN?ENIN CABINETS
ABOVE A RANGE OR ON THE BACKSPLASH OF A RAIVGE-Cf-iiLDREN
CLNW3UW3ON THE RANGE TO REACH ITEMS COULD BE SERIOUSLY IN­JURED.

Wear proper apparel—loose fitting or hanging garments should never be worn
while using the appliance.

Never use your appliance for warming or heating the room.
Use I%3perPanSize—This appliance isequipped with one or more surface units

of different size. Select utensils having flat. bottoms large enough to cover the
surface unit heating area. The use of undersized utensils will exposea portion
of the heating area to direct contact and may resuit in ignition of clothing. Proper
relationship of utensil to heating area will also improve efficiency.

Never leave surface units unattended at high heat settings. Boi{over causes

smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite.

W only dry pothohiers—

moist or damp potholderson hot surfacesmay result
in burns from steam. Do not jet potholders touch hot heating elements, Do not
use a towel or other bulky cloth.

Glazed cooking iutefmik—

only certain types of glass, glass/ceramic, ceramic,
earthenware, or other glazed utensils are suitable for range-top service without
breaking due to the sudden change in temperature.

To minimize burns, ignition of flammable materials, and spillage due to unin­tentional contact with the utensil, the handle of a utensil should be positioned
so that it is turned inward and does not extend over adjacent surface units.

When flaming foods under the hood, turn the fan off. The fan, if operating, may
spread the flame.

Stand away from range whm opening oven door to let hot air or steam escape
before removingor placing food inside.

Place oven racks in desired position while oven is cool. If racks must be han­dled when hot, do not let potholder contact hot heating element in oven.

Pulling out shelf all the way to the shelf stop is a convenience in lifting heavy

foods, It is also a precaution against burns from touching hot surfaces of the

door or oven wails.
Don’t hat unopened food containers in the oven. Pressurecould build up and

the container could burst, resulting in injury.
When using cooking or roasting bags in oven, follow manufacturer’s directions.

Don’t use aluminum foil anywhere in the ovenexcept as described in this book­let. Improper installation could result in a shock,

fire hazard, or damage to the

range.

Keep hood and grease filters clean according to

instructions to maintain good

venting and to avoid greasefires.
Do not store flammable materials in an oven or

near the cooktop.

(continuednext page)

* DO NOT USE WATER ON GREASE FiRES, NEVER PICK UP A FLAM1N(3 PAN.

Smother flaming pan on surface area by covering pan completely with well fit­ting lid, cookiesheet or flat tray.

Flaming grease outside pan can be extinguished by taking soda or, if available,
a multi-purpose dry chemical or foam type extinguisher.

When cooking in the oven, flame can be smothered by completely closing door
and turning OVEN SET to OFF.

Alsoseefryingtips, surface unit pages.

MicrowaveOven...

Cooking utensils may become hot because of heat transferred from the heated

@

food. Pot holders may be needed to handle them.
Also, under some cooking operations the shelf can become too hot to touch.
THEREFORE, DURING AND AFTER COOKING, CAUTION SHOULD BE EXER­CISED IN TOUCHING THE SHELF.

~ Remove wire twist-ties on paper and plastic bags before placing in microwave

oven. Twist-ties can cause heating of the bag under certain conditions, and

can cause fire.

spilloversmay penetrate the broken cooktop and create a shock hazard. Contact

a qualified technician immediately.

hot cooking area, be careful to avoid ste;m burn. Some cleansers can produce

noxiousfumes if applied to a hot surface.
