SAFETY INFORMATION
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING THE APPLIANCE
WARNING Read all safety instructions before using the product. Failure to follow these instructions may result in fire, electrical shock, serious injury or death.
ANTI-TIP DEVICE
To reduce the risk of tipping the range, the range must be secured by a properly installed anti-tip bracket. See installation instructions shipped with the bracket for complete details before attempting to install.
For Free-Standing Ranges
To check if the bracket is installed, ensure there is no cookware on top of the range and all surfaces are cool to the touch. Carefully slide out the range from the wall approximately three inches. Look behind the range to see if there is a metal bracket attached to the floor or the wall. To check if the bracket is installed correctly,
grasp the back of the range, being careful not to grab or bend the rear trim piece. Tilt the range forward slightly and confirm
the anti-tip bracket engages the back of the range, limiting the forward tip of the range. If the |
|
anti-tip bracket does not engage the range and prevent it from tipping, verify the anti-tip bracket |
|
has been properly installed. If this does not solve the problem or the anti-tip bracket is not |
|
present, call 800.626.8774 in the US or 800.561.3344 in Canada. |
Anti-Tip |
If the range is pulled from the wall for any reason, always repeat this procedure to verify the |
Bracket |
range is properly secured by the anti-tip bracket. |
|
Never completely remove the leveling legs or the range will not be secured to the anti-tip |
Free-Standing Ranges |
device properly. |

•Be sure your appliance is properly installed and grounded by a qualified installer 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 transferred to a qualified technician.
•Before performing any service, unplug the range or disconnect the power supply at the household
distribution panel by removing the fuse or switching off the circuit breaker.
•Do not leave children alone—children should not be left alone or unattended in an area where an appliance is in use. They should never be allowed to climb, sit or stand on any part of the appliance.
• |
CAUTION |
Do not store items of interest to |
|
||
|
children above a range or on the backguard of a range— |
|
|
children climbing on the range to reach items could be |
|
|
seriously injured. |
•Use only dry pot holders—moist or damp pot holders on hot surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do not let pot holders touch hot surface units or heating elements. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth in place of pot holders.
•Never use your appliance for warming or heating the room.
•Do not touch the surface units, the heating elements or the interior surface of the 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 the surface units, areas nearby the surface units or any interior area of the oven; allow sufficient time for cooling first. Other surfaces of the appliance may become hot enough
to cause burns. Potentially hot surfaces include the cooktop, areas facing the cooktop, oven vent opening, surfaces near the opening and crevices around the oven door.
•Do not heat unopened food containers. Pressure could build up and the container could burst, causing an injury.
•Do not use any type of foil or liner to cover the oven bottom or anywhere in the oven, except as described in this manual. Oven liners can trap heat or melt, resulting in damage to the product and risk of shock, smoke or fire.
•Avoid scratching or impacting glass doors, cook tops or control panels. Doing so may lead to glass breakage. Do not cook on a product with broken glass. Shock, fire or cuts may occur.
•Cook food thoroughly to help protect against foodborne illness. Minimum safe food temperature recommendations can be found at IsItDoneYet.gov and fsis.usda.gov. Use a food thermometer to take food temperatures and check several locations.
WARNING KEEP FLAMMABLE MATERIALS AWAY FROM THE OVEN
Failure to do so may result in fire or personal injury.
•Do not store or use flammable materials in an oven or near the cooktop, including paper, plastic, pot holders, linens, wall coverings, curtains, drapes and gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids.
•Never wear loose-fitting or hanging garments while using the appliance. These garments may ignite if they contact hot surfaces causing severe burns.
•Do not let cooking grease or other flammable materials accumulate in or near the range. Grease in the oven or on the cooktop may ignite.
•Clean ventilating hoods frequently. Grease should not be allowed to accumulate on the hood or filter.

SAFETY INFORMATION
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING THE APPLIANCE
WARNING IN THE EVENT OF A FIRE, TAKE THE FOLLOWING STEPS TO PREVENT INJURY AND FIRE SPREADING
•Do not use water on grease fires. Never pick up a flaming pan. Turn the controls off. Smother a flaming pan on a surface unit by covering the pan completely with a well-fitting lid, cookie sheet or flat tray. Use a multi-purpose dry chemical or foamtype fire extinguisher.
•If there is a fire in the oven during baking, smother the fire by closing the oven door and turning the oven off or by using a multi-purpose dry chemical or foam-type fire
extinguisher.
•If there is a fire in the oven during self-clean, turn the oven off and wait for the fire to go out. Do not force the door open. Introduction of fresh air at self-clean temperatures may lead to a burst of flame from the oven, Failure to follow this instruction may result in severe burns.
WARNING COOKTOP SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
•Never leave the surface units unattended with the cooktop ON above a Lo setting. Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers that may catch on fire.
•Always be present at the range when cooking with oil or grease. Surface cooking is an "attended" activity.
•Never leave oil unattended while frying. If allowed to heat beyond its smoking point, oil may ignite resulting in fire that may spread to surrounding cabinets. Use a deep fat thermometer whenever possible to monitor oil temperature.
•To avoid oil spillover and fire, use a minimum amount of oil when shallow pan-frying and avoid cooking frozen foods with excessive amounts of ice.
•Use proper pan size—select cookware having flat bottoms large enough to cover the surface heating element. The use of undersized cookware will expose a portion of the surface unit to direct contact and may result in ignition of clothing. Proper relationship of cookware to surface unit will also improve efficiency.
•Only certain types of glass, glass/ceramic, earthenware or other glazed containers are suitable for cooktop service; others may break because of the sudden change in temperature.
•To minimize the possibility of burns, ignition of flammable materials and spillage, the handle of a container should be turned toward the center of the range without extending over nearby surface units.
•When preparing flaming foods under a hood, turn the fan on.
•If power is lost to an electric cooktop while a surface unit is ON, the surface unit will turn back on as soon as power is restored. In the event of power loss, failure to turn
all surface unit knobs to the OFF position may result in ignition of items on or near the cooktop, leading to serious injury or death.
WARNING RADIANT COOKTOP SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
•Use care when touching the cooktop. The glass surface of the cooktop will retain heat after the controls have been turned off.
•Do not cook on a broken cooktop. If glass cooktop should break, cleaning solutions and spillovers may penetrate the broken cooktop and create a risk of electric shock. Contact a qualified technician immediately.
•Avoid scratching the glass cooktop. The cooktop can be scratched with items such as knives, sharp instruments, rings or other jewelry, and rivets on clothing.
•Do not place or store items that can melt or catch fire on the glass cooktop, even when it is not being used. If the cooktop is inadvertently turned on, they may ignite. Heat
from the cooktop or oven vent after it is turned off may cause them to ignite also.
•Use CERAMA BRYTE® ceramic Cooktop Cleaner and CERAMA BRYTE® Cleaning Pad to clean the cooktop. Wait until the cooktop cools and the indicator light goes out before cleaning. A wet sponge or cloth on a hot surface can cause steam burns. Some cleaners can produce noxious fumes if applied to a hot surface. NOTE: Sugar spills are an exception. They should be scraped off while still hot using an oven mitt and a scraper. See the Cleaning the glass cooktop section for detailed instructions.
•Read and follow all instructions and warnings on the cleaning cream label.

WARNING OVEN SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
•Stand away from the range when opening the oven door. Hot air or steam which escapes can cause burns to hands, face and/or eyes.
•Do not use the oven if a heating element develops a glowing spot during use or shows other signs of damage. A glowing spot indicates the heating element may fail and present a potential burn, fire, or shock hazard. Turn the oven off immediately and have the heating element replaced by a qualified service technician.
•Keep the oven vent unobstructed.
•Keep the oven free from grease buildup. Grease in the oven may ignite.
•Place oven racks in desired location while oven is cool. If rack must be moved while oven is hot, do not let pot
holder contact hot heating element in oven.
•When using cooking or roasting bags in the oven, follow the manufacturer’s directions.
•Pull the oven rack to the stop-lock position when loading and unloading food from the oven. This helps prevent burns from touching hot surfaces of the door and oven walls.
•Do not leave items such as paper, cooking utensils or food in the oven when not in use. Items stored in an oven can ignite.
•Never place cooking utensils, pizza or baking stones, or any type of foil or liner on the oven floor. These items can trap heat or melt, resulting in damage to the product and risk of shock, smoke or fire.
