Your safety and the safety of others are very important.
We have provided many important safety messages in this manual and on your appliance. Always read and obey all safety messages.
This symbol alerts you to potential hazards that can kill or hurt you and others. All safety messages will follow the safety alert symbol and either the word "DANGER" or
This is the safety alert symbol. "WARNING." These words mean:
You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't immediately follow instructions.
You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't
follow instructions.
All safety messages will tell you what the potential hazard is, tell you how to reduce the chance of injury, and tell you what can happen if the instructions are not followed.
The range will not tip during normaluse. However,the range cantip if you apply too much force or weight to the open door without the
anti-tip bracket fastened down properly.
Tip Over Hazard
A child or adult can tip the range and be killed. Connect anti-tip bracket to rear range foot.
Reconnect the anti-tip bracket, if the range is moved. See the installation instructions for details.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death or serious burns to children and adults.
Anti-Tip Bracket
Range Foot
Making sure the anti-tip bracket is installed:
Slide range forward.
Look for the anti-tip bracket securely attached to floor.
Slide range back so rear range foot is under anti-tip bracket.
iMPORTANT SAFETY iNSTRUCTiONS
WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electrical
shock, injuryto persons, or damage when using the range, follow basic precautions, including the
following:
., WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF
TIPPING OF THE RANGE, THE RANGE MUST BE SECURED BY PROPERLY INSTALLED ANTI-TIP
DEVICES. TO CHECK IF THE DEVICES ARE INSTALLED PROPERLY, SLIDE RANGE FORWARD,
LOOK FOR ANTI-TIP BRACKET SECURELY
ATTACHED TO FLOOR, AND SLIDE RANGE BACK SO REAR RANGE FOOT IS UNDER ANTI-TIP
BRACKET.
,, CAUTION: Do not store items of interest to
children in cabinets above a range or on the backguard of a range - children climbing on the
range to reach items could be seriously injured.
. Proper Installation - Be sure the range is properly
installed and grounded by a qualified technician.
. Never Use the Range for Warming or Heating the
Room.
. Do Not Leave Children Alone - Children should not
be left alone or unattended in area where the range is in use. They should never be allowed to sit or
stand on any part of the range.
. Wear Proper Apparel - Loose-fitting or hanging
garments should never be worn while using the range.
. User Servicing - Do not repair or replace any part of
the range unless specifically recommended in the manual. All other servicing should be referred to a
qualified technician.
. Storage in or on the Range - Flammable materials
should not be stored in an oven or near surface units.
. Do Not Use Water on Grease Fires - Smother fire or
flame or use dry chemical or foam-type extinguisher.
. Use Only Dry Potholders - Moist or damp
potholders on hot surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do not let potholder touch hot heating
elements. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth.
i DO NOT TOUCH SURFACE UNITS OR AREAS
NEAR UNITS - Surface units may be hot even
though they are dark in color. Areas near surface units may become hot enough to cause burns.
During and after use, do not touch, or let clothing or
other flammable materials contact surface units or areas near units until they have had sufficient time
to cool. Among those areas are the cooktop and surfaces facing the cooktop.
[] Use Proper Pan Size - The range is equipped with
one or more surface units of different size. 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 burner will also improve efficiency.
[] Never Leave Surface Units Unattended at High Heat
Settings - Boilover causes smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite.
[] 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 oven bottoms, except as suggested in the manual. Improper installation of
these liners may result in a risk of electric shock, or fire.
[] Glazed Cooking Utensils - 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.
[] Utensil Handles Should Be Turned Inward and Not
Extend Over Adjacent Surface Units - To reduce the risk of 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.
[] Do Not Soak Removable Heating Elements -
Heating elements should never be immersed in
water.
[] Do Not Cook on Broken Cooktop - If cooktop
should break, cleaning solutions and spillovers may
penetrate the broken cooktop and create a risk of
electric shock. Contact a qualified technician
immediately.
[] Clean Cooktop With Caution - If a wet sponge or
cloth is used to wipe spills on a hot cooking area,
be careful to avoid steam burn. Some cleaners can produce noxious fumes if applied to a hot surface.
[] Use Care When Opening Door - Let hot air or
steam escape before removing or replacing food.
[] Do Not Heat Unopened Food Containers - Build-up
of pressure may cause container to burst and result
in injury.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Keep Oven Vent Ducts Unobstructed.
Placement of Oven Racks - Always place oven racks in desired location while oven is cool. If rack
must be moved while oven is hot, do not let potholder contact hot heating element in oven.
DO NOT TOUCH HEATING ELEMENTS OR INTERIOR SURFACES OF OVEN - Heating
elements may be hot even though they are dark in color. Interior surfaces of an oven become hot
enough to cause burns. During and after use, do
not touch, or let clothing or other flammable materials contact heating elements or interior
surfaces of oven until they have had sufficient time to cool. Other surfaces of the appliance may
become hot enough to cause burns - among these
surfaces are oven vent openings and surfaces near these openings, oven doors, and windows of oven
doors.
For self-cleaning ranges -
Do Not Clean Door Gasket - The door gasket is essential for a good seal. Care should be taken not
to rub, damage, or move the gasket.
Do Not Use Oven Cleaners - No commercial oven cleaner or oven liner protective coating of any kind
should be used in or around any part of the oven.
Clean Only Parts Listed in Manual.
Before Self-Cleaning the Oven - Remove broiler pan and other utensils.
For units with ventilating hood -
Clean Ventilating Hoods Frequently - Grease should
not be allowed to accumulate on hood or filter.
When flaming foods under the hood, turn the fan on.

COOKTOP USE
The surface cooking area will glow red when an element is on. It
will cycle on and off, at all settings, to maintain the selected heat level.
Wiping off the cooktop before and after each use will help keep it
free from stains and provide the most even heating. On cooktops
with white ceramic glass, soils and stains may be more visible, and may require more cleaning and care. For more information, see "General Cleaning" section.
Do not store jars or cans above the cooktop. Dropping a heavy or hard object onto the cooktop could crack it.
Do not leave a hot lid on the cooktop. As the cooktop cools, air can become trapped between the lid and the cooktop, and the ceramic glass could break when the lid is removed.
For foods containing sugar in any form, clean up all spills and soils as soon as possible. Allow the cooktop to cool down slightly. Then, while wearing oven mitts, remove the spills while the surface is still warm. If sugary spills are allowed to cool down, they can adhere to the cooktop and can cause pitting and permanent marks.
Do not slide cookware or bakeware across the cooktop. Aluminum or copper bottoms and rough finishes on
cookware or bakeware could leave scratches or marks on the cooktop.
Do not cook popcorn in prepackaged aluminum containers on the cooktop. It could leave aluminum marks that cannot be removed completely.

Do not allow objects that could melt, such as plastic or aluminum foil, to touch any part of the entire cooktop.
Do not use the cooktop as a cutting board. Use cookware about the same size as the surface cooking
area. Cookware should not extend more than 1/2"(1.25 cm) outside the area.

Donotcookfoodsdirectlyonthecooktop.
IMPORTANT: Do not leave empty cookware on a hot surface cooking area, element or surface burner.
Ideal cookware should have a flat bottom, straight sides, a well-
fitting lid and the material should be of medium-to-heaw thickness.
Rough finishes may scratch the cooktop. Aluminum and copper may be used as a core or base in cookware. However, when used as a base it can leave permanent marks on the cooktop or grates.
Cookware material is a factor in how quickly and evenly heat is transferred, which affects cooking results. A nonstick finish has the same characteristics as its base material. For example,
aluminum cookware with a nonstick finish will take on the
properties of aluminum.
Use the following chart as a guide for cookware material
characteristics.
COOKWARE CHARACTERISTICS
When canning for long periods, alternate the use of surface cooking areas, elements or surface burners between batches. This allows time for the most recently used areas to cool.
Center the canner on the grate or largest surface cooking area or element. Canners should not extend more than
1" (2.5 cm) outside the cooking area.
Do not place canner on 2 surface cooking areas, elements or surface burners at the same time.
On ceramic glass models, use only flat-bottomed canners.
For more information, contact your local U.S. Government Agricultural Department Extension Office. In Canada, contact Agriculture Canada. Companies that manufacture home canning products can also offer assistance.
