precautions which must be followed to ensure safe and satisfactory
aeration.
To reduce the risk of fire, electrlcal shock,
Injury to persons, or damage when using the

precaullonr, Including
. FOR YOUR SAFETY.
DO NOT STORE OR USE GASOLINE OR OTHER FLAMMABLE
VAPORS AND LIQUIDS IN THE VICINITY OF THIS OR ANY
OTHER APPLIANCE. THE FUMES CAN CREATE A FIRE
HAZARD OR EXPLOSION.
. FOR YOUR SAFETY.

1. OPEN WINDOWS.
2. DON’T TOUCH ELECTRICAL SWITCHES.
3. EXTINGUISH ANY OPEN FLAMES.
4. IMMEDIATELY CALL YOUR GAS SUPPLIER.

To the Installer: Please leave this instruction book with the unit.
To the Consumer: Please read and keep this book for future reference.

the range.
installed by a qualified installer.
The range must be properly con-
* Install or locate the range only in
accordance with the provided
Installation Instructions. It is recommended that the range be
netted to the proper gas supply
and checked for leaks. The range
must also be properly connected
to electrical supply and
grounded.
l Do not operate the range if it is not
working properly, or if it has been
damaged.
l Do not use the range for warming
or heating the room. Persons could
be burned or injured, or a fire
could start.
l Use the range only for its intended
use as described in this manual.
l Do not wear loose or hanging
garments when using the range.
They could ignite if they touch a
hot surface burner and you could
be burned.
l Do not touch surface burners,
areas near burners or interior surfaces of oven. Areas near surface
burners and interior surfaces of an
oven become hot enough to
cause burns. During use, do not
touch, or let clothing or other flammable materials contact surface
burners, areas near surface
burners or interior surfaces of
oven. Other surfaces of the range
may become hot enough to
cause burns; such as, the oven
vent opening, the surface near the
vent opening, the cooktop, the
oven door and window.
l Make sure the utensils you use are
large enough to contain food and
avoid boil-avers and spillovers.
Heavy splattering or spillovers left
on a range can ignite and burn
you. Pan size is especially important in deep fat frying.
l Turn pan handles inward, but not
over other surface burners. This will
help reduce the chance of burns,
igniting of flammable materials,
and spills due to bumping of
the pan.
l Use only dry potholders. Moist or
damp potholders on surface
burners may result in burns from
steam. Do not let potholder touch
surface burners. Do not use a
towel or bulky cloth for a potholder. They could catch on fire.
l Check to be sure glass cooking
utensils are safe for use on the
range. Only certain types of glass,
glass-ceramic, ceramic, earthenware or other glazed utensils are
suitable for ranges without break-
ing due to the sudden change
in temperature.
l Do not use decorative covers or
trivets over the surface burners.
l Do not heat unopened containers.
They could explode. The hot
contents could cause burns and
container particles could cause
injury
l Grease is flammable and should
be handled carefully. Let fat cool
before attempting to handle
it. Do not allow grease to collect
around cooktop or in vents. Wipe
spillovers immediately.
l Do not use water on grease fires.
Never pick up a flaming pan.
Smother flaming pan on range by
covering with a well-fitted lid,
cookie sheet or flat tray. Flaming
grease outside of pan can be
extinguished with baking soda or,
if available, a multipurpose dry
chemical or foam-type
extinguisher.
l Never leave surface burners
unattended at high heat settings.
A boil-over could result and
cause smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite.
l Make sure surface burners are off
when you are finished, and when
you aren’t watching.
