Important Safety Instructions

Gas ranges 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 satisfactory operation.

To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, injury to persons, or damage when using the range, 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.

TO THE INSTALLER: PLEASE

TO THE CONSUMER: PLEASE

. IMPORTANT .

LEAVE THIS INSTRUCTION BOOK WITH THE UNIT. READ AND KEEP THIS BOOK FOR FUTURE REFERENCE.

1.Install or locate the range only in accordance with the provided Installation Instructions. It is recommended that the range be installed by a qualified installer. The range must be properly connected to the proper gas supply and checked for leaks. If needed, the range must also be properly connected to electrical supply and grounded.

2.To reduce the risk of tipping of the appliance, the appliance must be secured by properly installed anti-tip bracket(s). To check if the bracket(s) is installed properly, shine a flashlight under range toward rear corners and verify that the anti-tip bracket(s) is engaged. See Installation Instructions for further details.

3.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 range. 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.

4.DO NOT operate the range if it is not working properly, or if it has been damaged.

5.DO NOT use the range for warming or heating the room. Persons could be burned or injured, or a fire could start.

6.Use the range only for its intended use as described in this manual.

7.DO NOT wear loose or hanging garments when using the range. They could ignite if they touch a surface burner and you could be burned.

8.DO NOT touch surface burners, areas near burners or interior surfaces of oven. Areas near surface burners and interior surfaces of an oven become hot enough to cause burns. During use, DO NOT touch, or let clothing or other flammable materials contact surface burners, areas near surface burners or interior surfaces of oven. Other surfaces of the range may become hot enough to cause bums; such as, the oven vent opening, the surface near the vent opening, the cooktop, the oven door and window.

9.Make sure the utensils you use are large enough to contain food and avoid boil-overs and spi&overs. Heavy splattering or spill-overs left on a range can ignite and bum you. Pan size is especially important in deep fat

frying.

10.Turn pan handles inward, but not over other surface burners. This will help reduce the chance of burns,

igniting of flammable materials, and spills due to bumping of the pan.

11.Use only dry potholders. Moist or damp potholders on surface burners may result in burns from steam. DO NOT let potholder touch surface burners. DO NOT use a towel or bulky cloth for a potholder. They could catch on fire.

12.Check to be sure glass cooking utensils are safe for use on the cooktop. Only certain types of glass, glass-ceramic, ceramic, earthenware or other glazed utensils are suitable for cooktops without breaking due to the sudden change in temperature.

13.DO NOT use decorative covers or trivets over the surface burners.

14.DO NOT heat unopened containers. They could explode. The hot contents could cause burns and container particles could cause injury.

15.Grease is flammable and should be handled carefully. Let fat cool before attempting to handle it. DO NOT

allow grease to collect around cooktop or in vents. Wipe spill-overs immediately.

16.DO NOT use water on grease fires. Never pick up a flaming pan. Smother flaming pan on range 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.
