• All ranges can tip.
• Injury to persons could result.
• Install anti-tip device packed with range.
• See InstaLlation Instructions.
To reduce the risk of tipping of the
range, the range must be secured by properly installed
anti-tip bracket(s) provided with the range. To check if
the bracket(s) is installed properly, grasp top rear edge of
range, carefully tilt forward to make sure range is
properly anchored. Refer to the Installation Instructions
for proper anti-tip bracket(s) installation.
Stepping, leaning or sitting on the
doors or drawers of this range can result in serious
injuries and may also cause damage to the range. Do
not allow children to climb or play around the range. The
weight of a child on an open door may cause the range
to tip, resulting in serious burns or other injury.
Do not store items of interest to
children in the cabinets above a range or on the
backguard of a range. Children climbing on the range
to reach items could be seriously injured.
_Do not use the oven or broiler drawer
for storage.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
• Storage in or on Appliance--Flammable materials
should not be stored in an oven, near surface
burners or in the broiler drawer. This includes
paper, plastic and cloth items, suchas cookbooks,
plasticware and towels, as well as flammable liquids.
Do not store explosives,such asaerosol canson or
near the range. Flammable materials may explode and
result in fire or property damage.
• Do not leave children alone. Children should not be
left alone or unattended in the area where an
appliance is in use. They should never be allowed to
sit or stand on any part of the appliance.
• DO NOT TOUCH SURFACEBURNERS,AREAS NEAR
THESE BURNERS,OVEN BURNER OR INTERIOR
SURFACESOF THE OVEN. Areas near surface burners
may become hot enough to cause burns. During and
after use, do not touch, or let clothing or other
flammable materials touch these areas until they have
had sufficient time to cool. Among these areas are the
cooktop, surfaces facing the cooktop, the oven vent
openings and surfaces near these openings, oven door
and window.
• Wear Proper Apparel--Loose-fitting or hanging
garments should never be worn while using the
appliance. Do not let clothing or other flammable
materials contact hot surfaces.
Never use your appliance for warming
or heating the room.
• Do Not Use Water or Flour on Grease Fires--
Smother the fire with a pan lid, or use baking soda,
a dry chemical or foam-type extinguisher.
• When heating fat or grease, watch it closely. Fat or
grease may catch fire if allowed to become too hot.
• Use Only Dry Potholders--Moist or damp
potholders on hot surfaces may result in burns
from steam. Do not let the potholders touch the
flame or burners. Do not use a towel or other bulky
cloth instead of a potholder.
• Do Not Heat Unopened Food Containers--Build-up
of pressure may cause the container to burst and
result in injury.
• Remove the oven door from any unused range if it
is to be stored or discarded.
• IMPORTANT--Do not attempt to operate the oven
during a power failure. If the power fails, always
turn the oven off and remove food. If the oven is
not turned off and the power resumes, the oven will
begin to operate again. Food left unattended could
catch fire.
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING YOUR
COOKTOP
• Know which knob controls each surface heating unit.
Use Proper Flame Size--Adjust flame
size so it does not extend beyond the edge of the utensil
bottom. The use of undersized utensils will expose a
portion of the burner flame to direct contact and may
result in ignition of clothing. Proper relationship of
utensil to flame will also improve efficiency.
Utensil Handles Should Be Turned Inward Over
Cooktop and Not Extend Over Adjacent Surface
Burners--To reduce the risk of burns, ignition of
flammable materials, and spillage due to unintentional
contact with the utensil, the handle of the utensil
should be positioned so that it is turned inward and
does not extend over adjacent surface burners.
Never Leave Surface Burners Unattended at High
Settings--Boilovers cause smoking and greasy
spillovers that may ignite, or a pan that has boiled dry
may melt.
Protective Liner_Do not use aluminum foil to line
surface burner pans, oven bottom or any other part
of the range. Only use aluminum foil as
recommended for baking if used as a cover placed on
the food. Any other use of protective liners or
aluminum foil may interfere with heat and air
distribution, and combustion. Damage to the range or
personal injury may result.
Glazed Cooking Utensils_nly certain types of glass,
glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed
utensils are suitable for rangetop service without
breaking due to the sudden change in temperature.
Check the manufacturer's recommendations for
rangetop use.
Do Not Use Decorative Surface Burner Covers. If a
burner is accidentally turned on, the decorative cover
will become hot and possibly melt. You will not be
able to see that the burner is on. Burns will occur if
the hot covers are touched. Damage may also be done
to the cooktop or burners because the covers may
cause overheating. Air will be blocked from the burner
and cause combustion problems.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING YOUR
OVEN
• Use Care When Opening Door--Stand to the side of
the range when opening the door of a hot oven. Let
hot air or steam escape before you remove or replace
food in the oven.
• Keep Oven Vent Ducts Unobstructed. The oven is
vented below the backguard. Touching the surfaces in
this area when the oven is operating may cause severe
burns. Also, do not place plastic or heat-sensitive items
on or near the oven vent. These items could melt or
ignite.
• Placement of Oven Racks. Always place oven racks in
desired location while oven is cool. If rack must be
moved while oven is hot, use extreme caution. Use
potholders and grasp the rack with both hands to
reposition. Do not let potholders contact the oven
burner flame or interior of the oven. Remove all
utensils from the rack before removing rack.
• Do not use the broiler pan without its insert.
Dripping fat drains through the insertand is kept away
from the high heat of the broiler,
• Do not cover the broiler insert with aluminum foil.
Exposed fat and grease could ignite.
• Do not touch a hot light bulb (some models) with a
damp cloth, Doing so could causethe bulb to break,
Disconnect the range or turn off the power to the
range before removing and replacing light bulb.
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR CLEANING
YOUR RANGE
• Clean the range regularly to keep all parts free of
grease that could catch fire. Pay particular attention
to the area underneath each surface burner.
• Exhaust fan ventilation hoods and grease filters should
be kept clean. Do not allow grease to accumulate.
Greasy deposits in the fan could catch fire. Refer to the
hood manufacturer's instructions for cleaning.
• Kitchen cleaners/aerosols--Always follow the
manufacturer's recommended directions for use. Be
aware that excess residue from cleaners and aerosols
may ignite causing damage and/or injury.
