Important Safety Instructions

IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING YOUR

COOKTOP

• Know which knob controls each surface heating unit. Place a

pan of food on the unit before turning it on, and turn the unit off

before removing the pan.

• Use Proper Pan Size--This appliance is equipped with one or

more surface units of different sizes. Select utensils having flat

bottoms large enough to cover the surface unit heating element.

The use of undersized utensils will expose a portion of the heating

element to direct contact and may result in ignition of clothing.

Proper relationship of utensil to element will also improve efficiency.

• Utensil Handles Should BeTurned Inward and Not Extend Over

Adjacent Surface Elements--To reduce the risk of bums, ignition

of flammable materials, and spillage due to unintentional contact

with the utensil, the handle ofthe utensil should be positioned so

that it isturned inward, and does not extend over adjacent surface

units.

• Never Leave Surface Elements Unattended at High Heat

Settings--Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers that

may ignite, or a pan that has boiled dry may melt.

• Do Not Immerse or Soak Removable Heating Elements--

Heating elements should never be immersed in water. Heating

elements clean themselves during normal operation.

• Glazed Cooking Utensils--Only certain types of glass, glass/

ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed utensils are

suitable for cook top service without breaking due to the sudden

change in temperature. Check the manufacturer's

recommendations for cook top use.

• When flaming foods under a ventilating hood, turn the fan on.

IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING YOUR

OVEN

• Use Care When Opening Oven Door or Warmer Drawer (if

equipped_--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 vent is located

under the left rear surface element if your model is equipped with

coil elements. The oven vent is located below the backguard for

models equipped with ceramic-glass cook tops. 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 hot

heating elements in the oven. Remove all utensils from the rack

before moving.

• Do not use the broiler pan without its insert. The broiler pan and

its insert allow dripping fat to drain and be kept away from the high

heat of the broiler.

• Do not cover the broiler insert with aluminum foil. Exposed fat

and grease could ignite.

• Protective Liners--Do not use aluminum foil to line the oven

bottom. Only use aluminum foil as recommended in this manual.

Improper installation of these liners may result in risk of electric

shock, or fire.

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 element. Do not allow grease to accumulate.

• Kitchen cleaners and aerosols--Always follow the manufacturer's recommended directions for use. Be aware that excess

residue from cleaners and aerosols may ignite causing damage and injury.

• Clean Ventilating Hoods Frequently--Grease should not be allowed to accumulate on the hood or filter. Follow manufacturer's

instructions for cleaning.

COIL COOK TOP MODELS

• Make Sure Reflector Pans or Drip Bowls Are in Place--Absence of these pans or bowls during cooking may subject wiring or

components underneath to damage.

• Protective Liners--Do not use aluminum foil to line surface unit drip bowls, or reflector pans. Only use aluminum foil as recommended

in this manual. Improper installation of these liners may result in risk of electric shock, or fire. Improper installation of these liners may

result in risk of electric shock, or fire.
