Important Safety Instructions
Gas ranges have been thoroughly tested for safe and efficient operation. However, as with any appliance, there are specific installation and safety precautions which must be followed to ensure safe and satisfactory operation.
ÂWARNING

To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, injury to persons, or damage when using the range, follow basic precautions, including the following:

WARNING: If the information in this manual is not followed exactly, a fire or explosion may result causing property damage, personal injury or death.
DO NOT STORE OR USE GASOLINE OR OTHER FLAMMABLE VAPORS AND LIOUIDS IN THE VICINITY OF THIS OR ANY OTHER APPLIANCE.
WHAT TO DO IF YOU SMELL GAS:
■ DO NOT TRY TO LIGHT ANY APPLIANCE.
■ DO NOT TOUCH ANY ELECTRICAL SWITCH; DO NOT USE ANY PHONE IN YOUR BUILDING.
■ IMMEDIATELY CALL YOUR GAS SUPPLIER FROM A NEIGHBOR’S PHONE. FOLLOW THE GAS SUPPLIER’S INSTRUCTIONS.
■ IF YOU CANNOT REACH YOUR GAS SUPPLIER, CALL THE FIRE DEPARTMENT.
INSTALLATION AND SERVICE MUST BE PERFORMED BY A QUALIFIED INSTALLER, SERVICE AGENCY OR THE GAS SUPPLIER.
1. Install or locate the oven only in accordance with the provided Installation Instructions. It is recommended that the oven be installed by a qualified installer. The oven must be properly connected to the proper gas supply and checked for leaks. The oven must also be properly coimected to electrical supply and grounded.
2. Gas fuels and their use in appliances can cause minor exposures to benzene, formaldehyde, carbon monoxide and soot, primarily from incomplete combustion. Significant exposure to these substances can cause cancer or reproductive harm. Properly adjusted burners with a blue, rather than a yellow, flame will minimize incomplete combustion. Venting with a hood or an open window will further minimize exposure.
3. Do not operate the oven if it is not working properly, or if it has been damaged.
4. Do not use the oven for warming or heating the room. Persons could be binned or injured, or a fire could start.
5. Do not attempt to light the oven burner during a power failure. Personal injury could result.
6. Use the oven only for its intended use as described in this manual.
7. Do not wear loose or hanging garments when using the oven. They could ignite if they touch a hot surface and you could be burned.
8. Do not touch interior siufaces of oven. Interior surfaces of an oven become hot enough to cause bums. During and after use, do not touch, or let clothing or other flammable materials contact interior surfaces of oven until they have had sufficient time to cool. Other surfaces of the oven may become hot enough to cause bums; such as, the oven vent opening, the surface near the vent opening, the oven door and the oven door window.
9. Use only dry potholders. Moist or damp potholders on hot surfaces may result in bums from steam. Do not use a towel or bulky cloth for a potholder. It could catch on fire.
10. Do not heat unopened containers. They could explode. The hot contents could cause bums and container particles could cause injury.
11. Grease is flammable and should be handled carefully. Let fat cool before attempting to handle it.
12. Do not use water on grease fires. Never pick up a flaming pan. Smother flaming pan 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-ti^ extinguisher.
13. Use care when opening oven door. Let hot air or steam escape before removing or replacing food.
14. Always position oven rack(s) in desired location while oven is cool.
15. Do not store flammable materials in or near the oven or in the storage drawer. They could explode or bum.
16. Do not store things children might want above the oven. Children could be burned or injured while climbing on it.
17. Do not leave children alone or unattended in area where the oven is in use. They should never be allowed to sit or stand on any part of the oven. They could be burned or injured.
18. Never use a match or other flame to look for a gas leak. Explosion and injury could result.
