Floor Covering
Never install a range over inferior kitchen carpeting, vinyl tile or linoleum. These should be able to withstand at least 175°F without shrinking, warping or discoloring.
Curtains
If your range is near a window, use an appropriate window treatment. Do not use long curtains which could blow over the top burners and create a fire hazard.
If You Smell Gas
If this is a new range installation, your installer has not done a proper job of checking for leaks. Connections can loosen in transportation. If the range connections are not perfectly tight, you can have a small leak and therefore a faint gas smell.
Finding a gas leak is usually not a “do it yourself” procedure.
Some leaks can only be found with the controls in the “on” position exposing the user to serious burns. Never use a match or flame to locate a leak. Turn off the gas to the range and call a qualified serviceman.
Flame Size: Top burner flame size should be adjusted so it does not extend beyond the edge of the cooking utensil. Excessive flame is hazardous.
Use of High Flame: When using a high flame, never leave any pans unattended on this heat setting for long periods. Hot oil is particularly hazardous since it can become hot enough to ignite.
Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air to the range.
Any openings in the wall, behind the range or the floor under the range must be sealed.
Venting
Never block the vents (air openings of the range). They provide the air inlet and outlet which is necessary for the range to operate properly with correct combustion. The oven vent is located at the rear of the main top.
