should never be worn while using the appliance.

� User Servicing – Do not repair or replace any part of the

appliance unless specifically recommended in the manual. All other servicing should be referred to a qualified technician.

� Storage in or on Appliance – Flammable materials should

not be stored in an oven or near surface units.

� This appliance is not intended for storage. � Do Not Use Water on Grease Fires – Smother fire or

flame or use dry chemical or foam-type extinguisher.

� Do not use replacement parts that have not been

recommended by the manufacturer (e.g. parts made at home using a 3D printer).

� Use Only Dry Potholders – Moist or damp potholders on

hot surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do not let potholder touch hot heating elements. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth.

� DO NOT TOUCH SURFACE UNITS OR AREAS NEAR

UNITS – Surface units 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 contact surface units or areas near units until they have had sufficient time to cool. Among these areas are the coil elements, the cooktop, and surfaces facing the cooktop.

� Use Proper Pan Size – This appliance is equipped with

one or more surface units of different size. Select utensils having flat bottoms large enough to cover the surface unit heating element. The use of undersized utensils will expose a portion of the heating element to direct contact and may result in ignition of clothing. Proper relationship of utensil to burner will also improve efficiency.

� Never Leave Surface Units Unattended at High Heat

Settings – Boilover causes smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite.

� Make Sure Reflector Pans or Drip Bowls Are in Place –

Absence of these pans or bowls during cooking may subject wiring or components underneath to damage.

� Protective Liners – Do not use aluminum foil to line

surface unit drip bowls or oven bottoms, except as suggested in the manual. Improper installation of these liners may result in a risk of electric shock, or fire.

� Glazed Cooking Utensils – Only certain types of glass,

glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed utensils are suitable for range-top service without breaking due to the sudden change in temperature.

� Utensil Handles Should Be Turned Inward and 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, the handle of a utensil should be positioned so that it is turned inward, and does not extend over adjacent surface units.

� Do Not Soak Removable Heating Elements – Heating

elements should never be immersed in water.

� Do Not Cook on Broken Cook-Top – If cook-top should

break, cleaning solutions and spillovers may penetrate the broken cook-top and create a risk of electric shock. Contact a qualified technician immediately.

� Clean Cooktop With Caution – If a wet sponge or cloth is

used to wipe spills on a hot cooking area, be careful to avoid steam burn. Some cleaners can produce noxious fumes if applied to a hot surface.

� Use Care When Opening Door – Let hot air or steam

escape before removing or replacing food.

� Do Not Heat Unopened Food Containers – Build-up of

pressure may cause container to burst and result in injury.

� Keep Oven Vent Ducts Unobstructed. � Placement of Oven Racks – Always place oven racks in

desired location while oven is cool. If rack must be moved while oven is hot, do not let potholder contact hot heating element in oven.

� DO NOT TOUCH HEATING ELEMENTS OR INTERIOR

SURFACES OF OVEN – Heating elements may be hot even though they are dark in color. 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 heating elements or interior surfaces of oven until they have had sufficient time to cool. Other surfaces of the appliance may become hot enough to cause burns – among these surfaces are oven vent openings and surfaces near these openings, oven doors, and windows of oven doors.

� Care must be taken to prevent aluminum foil and meat

probes from contacting heating elements.

Adjust Leveling Legs

1. If range height adjustment is necessary, use a wrench or pliers

to loosen the four leveling legs. This may be done with the range on its back or with the range

supported on two legs after the range has been placed back to a standing position.

NOTE: To place range back up into a standing position, put a sheet of cardboard or hardboard in front of range. Using two or more people, stand range back up onto the cardboard or hardboard.

5. Using the Phillips screwdriver, mount anti-tip bracket to the

wall or floor with the two #12 x 1 provided.

6. Move range close enough to opening to allow for final

electrical connections. Remove shipping base, cardboard or hardboard from under range.

7. Move range into its final location, making sure rear leveling leg

slides into anti-tip bracket.

8. Move range forward onto shipping base, cardboard or

hardboard to continue installing the range using the following installation instructions.

WARNING

Tip Over Hazard A child or adult can tip the range and be killed. Install anti-tip bracket to floor or wall per installation

instructions. Slide range back so rear range foot is engaged in the

slot of the anti-tip bracket. Re-engage anti-tip bracket if range is moved. Do not operate range without anti-tip bracket installed

and engaged. Failure to follow these instructions can result in death or

serious burns to children and adults.

2. Measure the distance from the top of the counter to the floor.

3. Measure the distance from the top of the cooktop to the

bottom of the leveling legs. This distance should be the same. If it is not, adjust the leveling legs to the correct height. The leveling legs can be loosened to add up to a maximum of 1" (2.5 cm). A minimum of 3/16" (5 mm) is needed to engage the anti-tip bracket.

NOTE: If height adjustment is made when range is standing, tilt the range back to adjust the front legs, and then tilt forward to adjust the rear legs.

4. When the range is at the correct height, check that there is

adequate clearance under the range for the anti-tip bracket. Before sliding range into its final location, check that the antitip bracket will slide under the range and onto the rear leveling leg prior to anti-tip bracket installation.

NOTE: If a Trim Kit will be used, the top of the cooktop should be higher than the counter. See the Installation Instructions included with the Trim Kit for the correct height.
