SURFACE COOKING UNITS

Never leave surface units unattended at high heat settings.

Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite.

Do not lift the cooktop. Lifting the cooktop can lead to damage and improper operation of the range.

Do not operate the cooktop when there is no cookware. If the cooktop operates without a cookware, the control knob will become hot.

Never use the glass cooktop surface as a cutting board.

Use care when touching the cooktop. The glass surface of the cooktop will retain heat after the controls have been turned off.

Be careful when placing spoons or other stirring utensils on glass cooktop surface when it is in use. They may become hot and could cause burns.

Use proper pan sizes. This appliance is equipped with 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.

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.

Read and follow all instructions and warnings on the cleaning cream labels.

Be sure you know which control knob operates each surface unit. Make sure you turned on the correct surface unit.

Always turn the surface units off before removing cookware. When preparing flaming foods under the hood, turn the fan on.

Keep an eye on foods being fried at high or medium high heat settings.

OVEN

DO NOT TOUCH HEATING ELEMENTS OR INTERIOR SURFACES OF THE 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.

Do not heat unopened food containers. Build-up of pressure may cause container to burst and result in injury.

Do not use the oven to dry newspapers. If overheated, they can catch on fire.

Do not use the oven for a storage area. Items stored in an oven can ignite.

Use care when opening door. Let hot air or steam escape before you remove or replace food in the oven.

Protective liners. Do not use aluminum foil to line the oven bottoms, except as suggested in the manual. Improper installation of these liners may result in a risk of electric shock or fire.

Keep oven vent ducts unobstructed. The oven vent is located above the right rear surface unit. this area could become hot during oven use. Never block this vent and never place plastic or heat-sensitive items on vent

Placement of oven racks. Always place oven racks in the desired location while the oven is cool. If the rack must be moved while oven is hot, do not let the potholder come in contact with the hot heating element in the oven.

Do not allow aluminum foil or meat probe to contact heating elements.

VENTILATING HOOD

Clean ventilating hoods frequently. Grease should not be allowed to accumulate on the hood or filter.

When flaming foods under the hood, turn the fan on.

SELF-CLEANING OVENS

Do not clean the door gasket. The door gasket is essential for a good seal. Care should be taken not to rub, damage, or move the gasket.

Never keep pet birds in the kitchen. The health of birds is extremely sensitive to the fumes released during an oven self-clean cycle. Fumes may be harmful or fatal to birds. Move birds to a well-ventilated room.

Clean in the self-clean cycle only parts listed in this manual. Before self-cleaning the oven, remove the broil pan, rack, utensils, and food.

No commercial oven cleaner or oven liner protective coating of any kind should be used in or on the outside of the oven. Use only a ceramic cooktop cleaner.

Nickel oven shelves should be removed from the oven before beginning the self-cleaning cycle, or they may discolor.

If the self-clean mode malfunctions, turn the oven off and disconnect the power supply. Have it serviced by a qualified technician.

GLASS/CERAMIC COOKING SURFACES

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 these areas are the cook-top and facing the cook-top.

Do not cook on broken cooktop. If cooktop should break, cleaning solutions and spillovers may penetrate the broken cook-top 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.

BEFORE YOU BEGIN

Clean the oven thoroughly before using for the first time. Remove accessories and operate the oven at the bake setting at 400°F for 1 hour before using. There will be a distinctive odor; this is normal, but ensure your kitchen is well ventilated during this conditioning period.
