IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING YOUR

COOKTOP

•Know which knob controls each surface heating unit. Place a pan of food on the unit before turning it on, and turn the unit off before removing the pan.

•Use Proper Pan Size--This appliance is equipped with one or more surface units of different sizes. 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 element will also improve efficiency.

•Utensil Handles Should Be Turned Inward and Not Extend

Over Adjacent Surface Units--To reduce the risk of bums, ignition of flammable materials, and spillage due to unintentional contact with the utensil, the handle of the utensil should be positioned so that it is turned inward, and does not extend over adjacent surface units.

•Never Leave Surface Units Unattended at High Heat Settings---

Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite, or a pan that has boiled dry may melt.

•Protective Liners--Do not use aluminum foil to line oven bottom, or any other part of the range. Only use aluminum foil as recommended in this manual. Improper installation of these liners may result in 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 cooktop service without breaking due to the sudden

change

in temperature.

Check the manufacturer's

recommendations

for cooktop

use.

•When flaming foods under a ventilating hood, turn the fan on.

FOR GLASS COOKTOPS

•Do Not Cook on Broken Cooktop---If cooktop should break, cleaning solutions and spillovers may penetrate the broken cooktop 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 a steam

burn. Some cleaners can produce noxious fumes if applied to a hot surface.

IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING YOUR

OVEN

•Use Care When Opening Oven Door or Warmer Drawer-- Stand to the side of the range when opening the door of a hot oven. Let hot air or steam escape before you remove or replace food in the oven.

• Keep Oven Vent Ducts Unobstructed. The oven vent is located

below the backguard. Touching the surfaces in this area when

the oven is operating may cause severe burns. Also, do not place plastic or heat-sensitive items on or near the oven vent. These

items could melt or ignite.

•Placement of Oven Racks. Always place oven racks in desired location while oven is cool. If rack must be moved while oven is

hot use extreme caution. Use potholders and grasp the rack with both hands to reposition. Do not let potholders contact the hot heating elements in the oven. Remove all utensils from the rack before moving.

•Do not use the broiler pan without its insert. The broiler pan and its insert allow dripping fat to drain and be kept away from the high heat of the broiler.

•Do not cover the broiler insert with aluminum foil. Exposed fat and grease could ignite.

•Cold temperatures can damage the electronic control. When using the appliance for the first time, or when the appliance has not been used for an extended period of time, be certain the unit has been in temperatures above 32°F (0°C) for at least 3 hours before turning on the power to the appliance

IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR CLEANING YOUR

RANGE

•Clean the range regularly to keep all parts free of grease that could catch fire. Do not allow grease to accumulate.

*Kitchen cleaners and aerosols--Always follow the

manufacturer's recommended directions for use. Be aware that excess residue from cleaners and aerosols may ignite causing damage and injury.

• Clean Ventilating Hoods Frequently---Grease should not be

allowed to accumulate on the hood or filter. Follow manufacturer's instructions for cleaning.

SELF CLEANING OVENS

•Clean in the self-cleaning cycle only the parts listed in this

Owner's Guide. Before self cleaning the oven, remove the broiler pan and any utensils or foods from the oven.

•Do Not Use Oven Cleaners--No commercial oven cleaner or

oven liner protective coating of any kind should be used in or around any part of the oven.

•Do Not Clean Door Gasket--The door gasket is essential for a

good seal. Care should be ta ken not to rub, damage or move the gasket.
