Imp ort an t Sa fe ty I nst ruc tio ns

Gas ovens 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 satisfac tory operation.

AWARNING

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

• 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 •

IF YOU SMELL GAS:

1. OPEN WINDOWS.

2. DON’T TOUCH ELECTRICAL SWITCHES.

3. EXTINGUISH ANY OPEN FLAMES.

4. IMMEDIATELY CALL YOUR GAS SUPPLIER.

IMPROPER INSTALLATION, ADJUSTMENT, ALTERATION, SERVICE OR MAINTENANCE CAN CAUSE INJURY OR

PROPERTY DAMAGE. REFER TO THIS MANUAL. FOR ASSISTANCE OR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION CONSULT A QUALIFIED INSTALLER, SERVICE AGENCY, MANUFACTURER (DEALER) OR THE GAS SUPPLIER.

Important Safety Instructions Continued

• 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 connected to electrical supply

and grounded.

• Gas fuels and combustion can result in

potential exposure to chemicals known to

cause cancer or reproductive harm. For

example, benzene is a chemical which is a part of the gas supplied to the oven. It is consumed in the flame during combustion. However, exposure to a small amount of benzene is possible if a gas leak occurs. Formaldehyde, carbon monoxide and soot are by-products of incomplete combustion. Properly adjusted burners with a bluish rather than a yellow flame will minimize incomplete combustion.

• Do not operate the oven if it is not working properly, or if it has been damaged.

• Do not use the oven for warming or heating the room. Persons could be burned or

injured, or a fire could start.

• Do not attempt to light the oven burner during a power failure. Personal injury could

result.

• Use the oven only for its intended use as described in this manual.

• 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.

• Do not touch interior surfaces of oven.

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 interior

surfaces of oven until they have had sufficient time to cool. Other surfaces of the oven may become hot enough to cause burns; such as, the oven vent opening, the surface near the vent opening, the oven door and the oven door window.

• Use only dry potholders. Moist or damp

potholders on hot surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do not use a towel or bulky cloth for a potholder. They could catch on fire.

' Do not heat unopened containers. They

could explode. The hot contents could cause burns and container particles could cause injury.

' Grease is flammable and should be handled

carefully. Let fat cool before attempting to handle it. Wipe spill-overs immediately.

' 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-type extinguisher.

' Use care when opening oven door. Let hot

air or steam escape before removing or

replacing food.

' Always position oven rack(s) in desired

location while oven is cool.

' Do not store flammable materials in or near

the oven. They could explode or burn.

• Do not store things children might want above the oven. Children could be burned or injured while climbing on it.

• 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.

> Never use a match or other flame to look for

a gas leak. Explosion and injury could result.

> Know where your main gas shut off valve is

located.

' Keep oven vents unobstructed. ' Clean your oven regularly. See care and

cleaning instructions in this manual.

> Be sure all oven parts are cool before

cleaning.

> Do not clean door seal. It is essential for a

good seal. Care should be taken not to rub, damage, or move the seal. Clean only parts

recommended in this Use and Care Guide.

> Do not repair or replace any part of the

oven unless specifically recommended in this manual. All other servicing should be

referred to a qualified technician.

> Disconnect the electrical supply before

servicing the oven.
