reference.

IMPORTANT SAFETY

NS

• Be sure your range [s installed and grounded

properly by a qualified installer or service
technician.

• This range must be electrically grounded in

accordance with local codes or, in their absence,
with the National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA No.

70--latest edition.
Tile installation of appliances designed for

manufactured (mobile) home installation must conform
with Manufactured Home Construction and Safety
Standard, title 24CFR, part 3280 [Formerly the Federal
Standard for Mobile Home Construction and Safety,
title 24, HUD (part 280)] or when such standard is not
applicable, the Standard for Manufactured Home
Installation 1982 (Manufactured Home Sites,
Communities and Setups), ANS! Z225.1/NFPA 501A-
latest edition, or with local codes.

• Make sure the wall coverings around the range

can withstand the heat generated by the range.

All ranges
can tip.

Injuryto
persons could

result.
InstallantPtip

device

packed with
range.

To reduce

the riskof tipping of the
range, the range must be

secured by properly
installed antPtip bracket

(9 provided with the
range. Tocheck if the
bracket (s) is installed
properly, grasp the top
rear edge of the range

and carefully tilt it
forward to make sure the

range is anchored.

Before installing the range in an area covered
with linoleum or any other synthetic floor
covering, make sure the floor covering can

withstand heat at least 90°F above room
temperature without shrinking, warping or

discoloring. Do not install the range over carpeting
unless you place an insulating pad or sheet of 1/4"
thick plywood between the range and carpeting.

Never leave children alone or

unattended in the area where an appliance is in use.
As children grow, teach them the proper, safe use of all
appliances. Never leave the oven door open when the
range is unattended.

Stepping, leaning or sitting on the

door or drawer of this range can result in serious
injuries and can also cause damage to the range.

Do not store items of interest to children in the
cabinets above the range. Children could be seriously
burned climbing on the range to reach items.

• To eliminate the need to reach over the surface
units, cabinet storage space above the units

should be avoided.

• Do not use the oven as a storage space. This
creates a potentially hazardous situation.

• Never use your range for warming or heating the
room. Prolonged use of the range without adequate

ventilation can be dangerous.

• Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable
vapors and liquids near this or any other

appliance. Explosions or fires could result.

• Reset all controls to the "off" position after using
a programmable timing operation,

FOR MODELS WITH SELF-CLEAN FEATURE:

Remove broiler pan, food and other utensils

before self-cleaning the oven. Wipe up excess
spillage. Follow the precleaning instructions in the Use

and Care Guide.
