IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Read all instructions before using this appliance.

Save these instructions for future reference.

This guide contains important safety symbols and instructions. Please pay special attention to these symbols and follow all instructions given. Here is a brief explanation of the use of these symbols.

This symbol will help alert you to situations that

may cause serious bodily harm, death or property damage.

• Remove all tape and packaging wrap before using the range. Destroy the carton and plastic bags after unpacking the range. Never allow children to play with packaging material.

• Proper Installation—Be sure your appliance is properly installed and grounded by a qualified technician in accordance with the National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA No. 70—latest edition and local code requirements. Install only

per installation instructions provided in the literature package for this range.

Ask your dealer to recommend a qualified technician and an authorized repair service. Know how to disconnect the electrical power to the range at the circuit breaker or fuse box in case of an emergency.

• User Servicing—Do not repair or replace any part of the appliance unless specifically recommended in the manuals.

All other servicing should be done only by a qualified technician to reduce the risk of personal injury and damage to the range.

• Never modify or alter the construction of a range by removing leveling legs, panels, wire covers, anti-tip brackets/screws, or any other part of the product.

TO REDUCE

• ALL RANGES CAN TIP.

• INJURY TO PERSONS COULD RESULT.

• INSTALL ANTITIP DEVICE PACKED WITH RANGE.

• SEE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS.

Stepping, leaning or sitting on the doors or drawers of this range can result in serious injuries and may also cause damage to the range. Do not allow children to climb

or play around the range. The weight of a child on an open door may cause the range to tip, resulting in serious burns or other injury.

Do not use the oven for storage.

THE RISK OF TIPPING OF THE RANGE, THE RANGE MUST BE SECURED BY PROPERLY INSTALLED ANTITIP BRACKET(S) PROVIDED WITH THE RANGE. TO CHECK IF THE BRACKET(S) IS INSTALLED PROPERLY, REMOVE THE LOWER PANEL OR STORAGE DRAWER AND VERIFY THAT THE ANTI-TIP BRACKET(S) IS ENGAGED. REFER TO THE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS FOR PROPER ANTI-TIP BRACKET(S) INSTALLATION.

This symbol will help alert you to situations that

may cause bodily injury or property damage.

• Storage in or on Appliance—Flammable materials should not be stored in an oven, near surface elements or in the storage drawer (if equipped). This includes paper, plastic and

cloth items, such as cookbooks, plasticware and towels, as well as flammable liquids. Do not store explosives, such as aerosol cans, on or near the range. Flammable materials may explode and result in fire or property damage.

Do not store items of interest to children in

the cabinets above a range or on the backguard of a range.

Children climbing on the range toreach items could be seriously injured.

• Do not leave children alone. Children should not be left alone or unattended in the area where an appliance is in use. They should never be allowed to sit or stand on any part of

the appliance.

• DO NOT TOUCH SURFACE UNITS, AREAS NEAR THESE UNITS, HEATING ELEMENTS OR INTERIOR SURFACES OF THE OVEN. Both surface units and oven heating elements 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 touch these areas until they have had sufficient time to cool. Among these areas are the cooktop, surfaces facing the cooktop, the oven vent opening and surfaces near these openings, oven door and window.

• Wear Proper Apparel—Loose-fitting or hanging garments should never be worn while using the appliance. Do not let

clothing or other flammable materials contact hot surfaces.

Never use your appliance for warming or

heating the room.

• When heating fat or grease, watch it closely. Fat or grease

may catch fire if allowed to become too hot.

• Use Only Dry Potholders—Moist or damp potholders on hot surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do not let the

potholders touch hot heating elements. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth instead of a potholder.

• Do Not Heat Unopened Food Containers—Build-up of pressure may cause the container to burst and result in injury.

• Remove the oven doors from any unused range if it is to be stored or discarded.

• IMPORTANT—Do not attempt to operate the range during a power failure. If the power fails, always turn off the range. If the range is not turned off and the power resumes, the

range will begin to operate again. Food left unattended could catch fire or spoil.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS (continued)

IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING YOUR COOKTOP

• Know which knob controls each surface heating unit.

• Use proper pan size — This appliance is equipped with one or

more surface units of different sizes. Select utensils having flat

bottoms large enough to cover the surface unit. The use of undersized utensils will expose a portion of the surface heating unit to direct contact and may result in ignition of clothing. Proper relationship of utensil to the surface unit will also improve efficiency.

• Utensil Handles Should Be Turned Inward and Should 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.

• Never Leave Surface Units Unattended — Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite, or a pan that has boiled dry may melt.

• Protective Liners — Do not use aluminum foil to line oven bottom or any other part of the range. Only use aluminum foil as recommended for baking if used as a cover placed on the food. Any other use of protective liners or aluminum foil may result in a risk of electric shock or fire or a short circuit.

• Glazed Cooking Utensils — Only certain types of glass, glass/ ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed utensils are suitable for rangetop service without breaking due to the sudden change in temperature. Check the manufacturer’s recommendations for rangetop use.

• Placement of Oven Racks. Always place oven racks in desired location while oven is cool. Remove all utensils from the rack before removing rack. If rack must be moved while oven is hot, use extreme caution. Use potholders and grasp the rack with both hands to reposition. Do not let potholders contact the hot oven element or interior of the oven.

• Do not use the broiler pan without its insert. The broiler pan and grid allow dripping fat to drain and be kept away from the high heat of the broiler.

• Do not cover the broiler grid with aluminum foil. Exposed fat and grease could ignite.

• Do not touch a hot light bulb with a damp cloth. Doing so could cause the bulb to break. Disconnect the range or turn off the power to the range before removing and replacing light bulb.

IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR CLEANING YOUR RANGE

• Clean the range regularly to keep all parts free of grease that could catch fire. Exhaust fan ventilation hoods and grease

filters should be kept clean. Do not allow grease to accumulate. Greasy deposits in the fan could catch fire. When flaming food under the hood, turn fan on. Refer to the hood manufacturer’s instructions for cleaning.

• Cleaners/Aerosols — Always follow the manufacturer’s recommended directions for use. Be aware that excess residue from cleaners and aerosols may ignite causing damage and/or injury.

IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING YOUR OVEN

• Use Care When Opening Door — Stand to the side of the

range when opening the door of a hot oven. Let hot air or steam escape before you remove or replace food in the oven.

• Keep Oven Vent Ducts Unobstructed. The oven is vented between the cooktop and the backguard. Touching the surfaces in this area when the oven is operating may cause severe burns. Also, do not place plastic or heat-sensitive items on or near the oven vent. These items could melt or ignite.

Electronic controllers can be damaged by cold temperatures. When you use your range for the first time, or if it has not been used for a long period of time, make sure that it has been exposed to a temperature above 0°C/32°F for at least 3 hours before connecting it to the power supply.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

SELF-CLEANING OVENS

• Clean in the self-cleaning cycle only the parts of the oven listed in this owner’s guide. Before self-cleaning the oven,

remove the broiler pan and any utensils stored in the oven.

• Do not clean the oven door gasket. Care should be taken not to rub, damage or move the gasket.

• Do not use oven cleaners. No oven cleaner or oven liner protective coating of any kind should be used in or around any part of the oven.

• Remove oven racks. Oven racks colour will change if left in the oven during a self-cleaning cycle.
