SAFETY PRECAUTIONS(cont.)

• 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.

•Use Care When Opening Door. Let hot air or steam escape before you remove or

replace food in the oven

•Do Not Heat Unopened Food Containers, Build-up of pressure may cause container to burst

and result in injury.

• Be certain all packing materials are removed from the appliance before operating,

Keep plastics, clothes, and paper away from parts of the appliance that may become hot.

•DO NOT force the door open.

This can damage the automatic door locking system. Use care when opening the oven door

after the self-cleaning cycle. Stand to the side of the oven when opening the door to allow hot air or

steam to escape. The oven may still be VERY

HOT.

•DO NOT use a steel-wool pad.

It will SCRATCH the surface.

•DO NOT use harsh etching, abrasive cleaners

or sharp metal scrapers to clean the oven door glass since they can scratch the surface.

It may result in shattering of the glass.

• Be careful when removing and lifting the door.

• DO NOT lift the door by the handle. The door is very heavy.

• DO NOT step or sit on the door. Install the anti-tip bracket packed with range.

- The range could be tipped and injury might result from spilled hot liquid, food, or the range itself.

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE UsE

SURFACECOOKING UNITS

• Use Proper Pan sizes. This appliance 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. Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite.

DEEP FATFRYERS

• Use extreme caution when moving the grease kettle or disposing of hot grease.

• 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.

• Be sure you know which control pads operate each surface unit.

Make sure you turned on the correct surface unit.

SAFETY DURING USE

•Oven Racks. Always place oven racks in

desired position while oven is cool.

•Always use pot holders or oven mitts when removing food from the oven or cooktop.

You can be burned because cookware and plates will be hot.

•Use caution with the TIMED BAKE or

DELAYED TIMED BAKE features. Use the automatic timer when cooking cured or frozen

meats and most fruits and vegetables. Foods that can easily spoil, such as milk, eggs, fish,

meat or poultry, should be chilled in the refrigerator first. Even when chilled, they

should not stand in the oven for more than 1 hour before cooking begins, and should be

removed promptly when cooking is completed.

Eating spoiled food can result in sickness from

food poisoning.

Should an oven fire occur, leave the oven door

closed and turn the oven off. If the fire continues, throw baking soda on the fire or

use a fire extinguisher.

• DO NOT put water or flour on the fire. Flour may be explosive and water can cause a grease fire to spread and cause personal injury.

• DO NOT use the broiler pan without the grid. DO NOT cover the grid with aluminum foil.

TIPS TO PROTECT THE GLASSCOOKTOP SURFACE

Cleaning

(See pages 32~33 for more information) Before first use, clean the cooktop. Clean your cooktop daily or after each use. This will

keep your cooktop looking good and can prevent

damage.

If a spillover occurs while cooking, immediately clean

the spill from the cooking area while it is hot to

prevent a tough cleaning chore later. Using extreme

care, remove spill with a proper metal scraper.

Do not allow spills to remain on the cooking area or

the cooktop trim for a long period of time.

Do not use abrasive cleansing powders or scouring pads which will scratch the cooktop.

Do not use chlorine bleach, ammonia, or other cleansers not specifically recommended for use on glass-ceramic.

To Prevent Other Damages

Do not allow plastic, sugar, or foods with high sugar content to melt onto the hot cooktop. Should this

happen, clean immediately. (See Cleaning, pages 32~33.)

Do not let a pan boil dry as this will damage the

surface and pan.

Do not use cooktop as a work surface or cutting

board.

Do not cook food directly on the surface.

To Prevent Marks and Scratches

Do not use glass pans. They may scratch the surface. Do not place a trivet or wok ring between the surface

and pan. These items can mark or scratch the top.

Do not slide aluminum pans across a hot surface.

The pans may leave marks which need to be

removed promptly." (See Cleaning pages 32~33.) Make sure the surface and the pan bottom are clean

and dry before turning on to prevent scratches. To prevent scratching or damaging to the glass-

ceramic top, do not leave sugar, salt, or fats on the cooking area. Wipe the cooktop surface with a clean cloth or paper towel before using.

Do not slide heavy metal pans across the surface

since these may scratch.

To Prevent Stains

Do not use a soiled dish cloth or sponge to clean the cooktop surface. A film will remain which may cause stains on the cooking surface after the area is heated.

Continuously cooking on a soiled surface may/will

result in a permanent stain.

GLASSCOOKTOP SURFACE

Glass Cooktop Surface Notes:

• The cooktop may emit light smoke and odor the first few times the cooktop is used. This is normal.

•Glass cooktops retain heat for a period of time after the elements are turned off. Turn the

elements off a few minutes before food is completely cooked and use the retained heat to complete cooking. When the hot surface light turns off, the cooking area will cool down enough to touch.

Because of the way they retain heat, the cooktop elements will not respond to changes in settings as

quickly as coil elements.

• In the event of a potential boilover, remove the pan from the cooking surface.

• Do not attempt to lift the cooktop.

•The smoothtop surface may appear discolored when

it is hot. This is normal and will disappear when the surface cools.
