RANGE SAFETY
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 is the safety alert symbol. 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 "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 normal use. However, the range can tip if you apply too much force or weight to the open door without having the anti-tip bracket fastened down properly.
Tip Over Hazard
A child or adult can tip the range and be killed. Verify the anti-tip bracket has been properly installed and engaged per installation instructions.
Re-engage anti-tip bracket if range is moved. Do not operate range without anti-tip bracket installed and engaged.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death or serious burns to children and adults.
To verify the anti-tip bracket is installed and engaged:

State of California Proposition 65 Warnings: WARNING: This product contains one or more chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer.
WARNING: This product contains one or more chemicals known to the State of California to cause birth defects or other reproductive harm.
Slide range forward.
Look for the anti-tip bracket securely attached to floor or wall.
Slide range back so rear range foot is under anti-tip bracket.
See installation instructions for details.
iMPORTANT SAFETY iNSTRUCTiONS
WARN(NG: To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock,
injury to 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 OR WALL, 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.
[] 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. [] 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 flambeing foods under the hood, turn the fan on.

The surface cooking area will glow red when an element is on. Some parts of the surface cooking area may not glow red when an
element is on. This is normal operation. It will also randomly cycle off and back on again, even while on High, to keep the cooktop from extreme temperatures.
It is normal for the surface of ceramic glass to appear to change color when surface cooking areas are hot. As the glass cools, it will return to its original color.
Clean the cooktop after each use to help avoid scratches, pitting, abrasions and to condition the glass surface. Ceramic glass
cooktop cleaner and a cooktop scraper are also recommended for stubborn soils. Do not use abrasive cleaners, cleaning pads or harsh chemicals for cleaning. The Cooktop Care Kit Part Number
31605 contains all of the items needed to clean and condition your ceramic glass cooktop. Refer to the "Range Care" section for
additional information.
IMPORTANT: To avoid permanent damage to the cooktop surface and to make soils easier to remove, clean the cooktop after each use to remove all soils.

Cooktops with an Even-Heat TM Ultra element provide the best speed to boil and simmering performance for large pans. For pans 10 inches and larger use the Even-Heat TM Ultra element at the "Ultra Hi" setting for fastest boiling performance. For best
low heat performance on pans 10 inches and larger use the Even-Heat TM Ultra element at the "Even Heat Simmer" setting.
For cooktops with two dual elements in the front positions, the fastest boiling performance for pots 10 inches and larger will be
on the larger dual element with both elements on "Dual Hi." For best low heat performance on pans 10 inches and larger, use the smaller dual element set at "Single Lo."
For best melting performance with small pans, use the Even- Heat TM element.
Use flat-bottomed cookware for best heat conduction and energy efficiency. Cookware with rounded, warped, ribbed or
dented bottoms could cause uneven heating and poor cooking results.
Determine flatness by placing the straight edge of a ruler across the bottom of the cookware. While you rotate the ruler, no space or light should be visible between it and the
cookware. Cookware designed with slightly indented bottoms or small
expansion channels can be used. Make sure the bottoms of pots and pans are clean and dry
before using them. Residue and water can leave deposits when heated.
Avoid storing jars or cans above the cooktop. Dropping a heavy or hard object onto the cooktop could crack the cooktop.

To avoid damage to the cooktop, 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 using
a scraper 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.
To avoid scratches, 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. They could leave aluminum marks that cannot be
removed completely. To avoid damage to the cooktop, do not allow objects that
could melt, such as plastic or aluminum foil, to touch any part of the entire cooktop.
To avoid damage to the cooktop, do not use the cooktop as a cutting board.
To avoid damage to the cooktop, do not cook foods directly on the cooktop.
