IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
READ ALL INSTRUCTION BEFORE USING
IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE AND WARNING
The California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement 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 customer of potential exposures to such substances.
Users of this appliance are hereby warned that when it is engaged in the self-clean cycle, there may be low level exposure to some of the listed substances, including carbon monoxide. Exposure can be minimized by properly venting the oven to the outdoors during the self-clean cycle by opening a window and/or door in the room where the appliance is located.
WARNING All ranges can tip and injury
could result. To reduce the risk of tipping of the appliance from abnormal usage by excessive loading of the oven door, the appliance must be secured to wall and floor by installing the
Anti-Tip device supplied. If it is not, there is a possible risk of the range tipping over and causing injury if you or a child stand, sit or
lean on an open door. Please refer to the Anti-Tip device information in the installation manual.
Tocheckifthedeviceisproperlyinstalledandengaged,look underneath the range with a flashlight to make sure one of therearlevelinglegsisproperlyengagedinthebracketslot. TheAnti-Tipdevicesecurestherearlevelinglegtothefloor when properly engaged. You should check this anytime the range has been moved.

9Use only dry potholders - a moist or damp potholder on hot surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do not let potholders touch hot surface unit or heating elements. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth.
10 CAUTION Donotstoreitemsofinteresttochildrenin cabinets above a range or on the backsplash of a range. Children climbing on the range to reach items could be seriously injured.
11Do not touch the surface units, heating elements or the interior surface of the oven. These surfaces may be hot even though they are dark in color. These surfaces may become hot enough to cause burns. During and after use, do not touch or let clothing or other flammable materials contact surface units, heating elements or interior surfaces of oven until they have had sufficient time to cool. Other potentially hot surfaces include: cooktop, areas facing the cooktop, oven vent opening, surfaces near the vent opening, oven door and window and area around the door.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
RADIANT SURFACE UNITS
1Use proper pan size — this appliance has different size surface units. Select utensils having flat bottoms large enoughtocoverthesurfaceunitheatingelement.Theuse of undersized utensils will expose a portion of surface unit heating element to direct contact and may result in ignition of clothing. Proper relationship of utensils to heating element will also improve efficiency.
2Never leave surface units unattended at high heat settings. Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers that may catch on fire.
3Only certain types of glass, glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthware or other glazed utensils are suitable for cooktop service without breaking due to the sudden change in temperature.
4To reduce the risk of burns, ignition of flammable materials and spillage due to unintentional contact with utensils, the handle of a utensil should be positioned so thatitisturnedinwardanddoesnotextendoveradjacent surface units.
5Do 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.
6Clean cooktop with caution. If a wet sponge or cloth is used to wipe spills on a hot surface unit, be careful to avoid steam burn. Some cleaners can produce noxious fumes if applied to a hot surface. Please see cleaning the glass cooktop section.
7Clean ventilating hoods frequently. Grease should not be allowed to accumulate on hood or filter.
8 When flaming foods under the hood, turn the fan on.
9Deep fat fryers - use extreme caution when moving the grease kettle or disposing of hot grease.
10Always turn the surface units off before removing cookware.
11Keep an eye on foods being fried at high or medium high heat settings.
12Food for frying should be as dry as possible. Frost on frozen foods or moisture on fresh foods can cause hot fat to bubble up and over the sides of the pan.
13Use little fat for effective shallow or deep fat frying. Filling the pan too full of fat can cause spillovers when food is added.
If a combination of oils or fats will be used in frying, stir together before heating or as fats melt slowly.
14Always heat fat slowly and watch as it heats.
15Useadeepfatthermometerwheneverpossibletoprevent heating fat beyond the smoking point.
