In Case of Fire

Turn off appliance and ventilating hood to avoid spreading the flame. Extinguish flame then turn on hood to remove smoke and odor.

* Cooktop: Smother fire or flame in a pan with a lid or

cookie sheet. NEVER pick up or move a flaming pan.

Ovens: Smother fire or flame by closing the oven doors.

Do not use water on grease fires. Use baking soda, a dry chemical or foam-type extinguisher to smother fire or

flame.

NEVER use an appliance as a step to reach cabinetS above_ MiSUSeef appliance dOOrS,such as stepping,

tJPP!ng of the appliance, breakage of door; and serious

injuries,

If appliance is installed near a window, precautions should be

taken to prevent curtains from blowing over surface ele-

ment&

If pan is smaller than element, a portion of the element wi[[ be exposed to direct contact and could ignite clothing or

potholder.

NEVER use appliance to warm or heat the room. Failure to follow this instruction can lead to possible burns, injury, fire,

or damage to the appliance. NEVER wear loose-fitting or hanging garments while using

the appliance. Clothing could catch utensil handles or ignite

and cause burns if garment comes in contact with hot heating elements.

To ensure proper operation and to avoid damage to the

appliance or possible injury, do not adjust, service, repair or replace any part of the appliance unless specifically recom- mended in this guide. Refer all other servicing to a qualified

technician.

NEVER store or use gasoline or other combustible or flam- mable materials in the ovens, near surface units or in the

vicinity of this appliance as fumes could create a fire hazard

or an explosion.

To prevent grease fires, do not let cooking grease or other

flammable materials accumulate in or near the appliance. Use only dry potholders. Moist or damp potholders on hot

surfaces may result in a steam burn. Do not let potholders

touch hot heating elements. Do not use a towel or other

bulky cloth which could easily touch hot heating elements and ignite.

Always turn off all controls when cooking is completed. NEVER heat unopened containers on the surface unit or in

the ovens. Pressure build-up in the container may cause

container to burst resulting in burns, injury or damage to the appliance.

NEVER use aluminum foil to line drip bowls or cover oven racks or oven bottoms. This could result in risk of electric

shock, fire, or damage to the appliance. Use foil only as directed in this guide.

AerosoFtype cans are EXPLOSIVEwhen exposed to heat and may be highly flammable. Do not use or store near appliance.

NEVER leave surface units unattended especially when using high heat. An unattended boilover could cause smok-

ing and a greasy spillover can cause a fire.

This appliance is equipped with different size surface ele-

ments. Select pans with flat bottoms large enough to cover element. Fitting pan size to element will improve cooking efficiency.

Only certain types of glass, glass-ceramic, ceramic, earthen- ware, or other glazed utensils are suitable for cooktop or

oven service without breaking due to the sudden change in temperature. Follow utensil manufacturer's instructions when using glass.

This appliance has been tested for safe performance using conventional cookware. Do not use any devices or accesso-

ries that are not specifically recommended in this manual. Do not use eyelid covers, stove top grills or add-on oven convection systems. The use of devices or accessories that

are not expressly recommended in this manual can create serious safety hazards, result in performance problems, and reduce the life of the components of this appliance.

Turn pan handle toward center of cooktop, not out into the room or over another surface element. This reduces the risk

of burns, ignition of flammable materials, or spillage if pan is accidently bumped or reached by small children.

Coil Elements

To prevent damage to removable surface heating ele- ments, do not immerse, soak or clean in a dishwasher or

self-clean oven. A damaged element could short resulting in a fire or shock hazard.

Make sure drip bowls are in place as absence of these bowls during cooking could damage wiring.

Protective Liners: Do not use aluminum foil to line surface unit drip bowls or oven bottoms, except as sug-

gested in the guide. Improper instalhtion of these liners may result in a risk of electric shock or fire.

Heating Emements

NEI/ER touch surface or oven heating elements, areas near elements, or interior surfaces of ovens.

Heating elements may be hot even though they are dark in color. Areas near surface elements and interior surfaces of

the ovens may become hot enough to cause burns. During and after use, do not touch or let clothing or other flam- mable materials contact heating elements, areas near elements, or interior surfaces of ovens until they have had

sufficient time to cool. Other potentially hot surfaces include: Cooktop, areas facing

the cooktop, oven vent, and surfaces near the vent opening, oven doors, areas around the doors and oven windows.

Deep Fat Fryers

Use extreme caution when moving the grease pan or disposing of hot grease. Allow grease to cool before at-

tempting to move pan.

Use care when opening doors. Let hot air or steam escape before removing or replacing food.

For proper oven operation and performance, do not block or obstruct oven vent duct. When ovens are in use, the vent

and surrounding area near the vent may become hot enough to cause burns.

Always place oven racks in desired locations while ovens are cool. If rack must be moved while an oven is hot, do

not let potholder contact hot element in oven.

NEVER leave children alone or unsupervised in area where appliance is in use or is still hot.

NEVER allow children to sit or stand on any part of the appliance as they could be injured or burned.

CNdren must betaught that the appliance and utensils in or on it can be hot. Let hot utensils cool in a safe place, out of reach of small children. Children should be taught that an

appliance is not a toy. Children should not be allowed to play with controls or other parts of the unit.

Ventimating Hoods

Clean range hood and filters frequently to prevent grease or other flammable materials from accumulating on hood or filter and to avoid grease fires.

Turn the fan on when flambeing foods (such as Cherries Jubilee] under the hood.

Self-Cleaning Ovens

Donot leaveracks,broiling pan,food orcooking utensils, etc.

in the ovens during the self,clean cycle.

Clean only parts listed in this guide. Do not clean door gasket. The gasket is essential for a good seal. Do not 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 ovens.

Before self-cleaning the ovens, remove broiler pan, oven racks and other utensils to prevent excessive smoking,

discoloration of the oven racks or possible damage to uten- sils.

It is normal for the cooktop to become hot during a clean cycle. Therefore, avoid touching the cooktop, door, window or oven vent during a clean cycle.

Child Safety

Important Safety Notice and

The California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforce- ment Act of 1986 (Proposition 65} requires the Governor of California to publish a list of substances known to the State of California to cause cancer or reproductive harm, and requires businesses to warn customers of potential exposures to such substances.

Users of this appliance are hereby warned that when the oven is engaged in the self-clean cycle, there may be some low-level exposure to some of the listed sub- stances, including carbon monoxide. Exposure to these substances can be minimized by properly venting the oven to the outdoors by opening the windows and/or door in the room where the appliance is located during the self-clean cycle.

UMPORTANT NOTUCE REGARDUNG PET BURDS: Never keep pet birds in the kitchen or in rooms where the

fumes from the kitchen could reach. Birds have a vep/ sensitive respiratory system. Fumes released during an oven self-cleaning cycle may be harmful or fatal to birds. Fumes released due to overheated cooking oil, fat, margarine and overheated non-stick cookware may be equally harmful.

NEVER store items of interest to children in cabinets above an appliance, Children climbing on the aPPl!ance or on the

appliance doors to reach items could be seriously injured.

Broil Notes:

For best results when broiling, use a two-piece broiler pan.

HI broil is used for most broiling. Use LO broil when broiling longer cooking foods to allow them to cook to

well done stage without excessive browning. Broil times may be longer when the LO broil temperature

is selected. Never cover broiler pan insert with aluminum foil. This

prevents fat from draining to the pan below. Expect broil times to increase and browning to be slightly

lighter if appliance is installed on a 208-volt circuit. If more than 30 seconds elapse between pressing the

Broii pad and the More+ or Less- pad, the oven wiii not be set and the display wiii return to the previous display.

Most foods should be turned halfway through broiling time.

The sdf-cban cycb uses above-normai cooking temperatures

to automatically dean the oven interior. It is normai for flare-ups, smoking, or flaming to occur during

cbaning if the oven is heavily soiled. It is better to clean the oven regularly rather than to wait until there is a heavy build-

up of soil in the oven. During the cleaning process, the kitchen should be well

ventilated to get rid of normal odors associated with cleaning.

Before Seff-Cmeaning

1. Turn off the oven light before cleaning. The light may burn

2. Remove broiler pan, all pans, and oven racks from the oven. The oven racks will discolor and may not slide easily

after a self-dean cycle if they are not removed.

3. Clean oven frame, door frame, area outside of gasket, and around the opening in the door gasket with a nonabrasive

cleaner such as Ban Ami* or detergent and water. The stir-charting process does not

clean these areas. They should be cleaned to prevent soil from baking

on during the clean cycle. (The gasket is the seal around the oven

door and window.}

4. To prevent damage, do not clean or

rub the gasket around the oven door. The gasket is

designed to seal in heat during the clean cycle.

5. Wipe up excess grease or spillovers from the oven bottom. This prevents excessive smoking, flare-ups or flaming

during the clean cycb.
