2. DO NOT store things children might want above the range. Children could be burned or injured while climbing on it.

3. DO NOT allow anyone to touch a hot surface burner, oven burner or areas around them. They could be hot enough to burn severely.

be hot enough to cause burns.

5. DO NOT use a range to heat a room. Persons in the room could

be burned or injured, or a fire
