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

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, remove the storage drawer (see page 15) and verify that the anti-tip bracket(s) is engaged.

Gas fuels and combustion can result in potential exposure to chemicals known to cause cancer or reproduc- tive 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.

Do not operate the range if it is not working properly, or if it has been damaged.

Do not use the range for warming or heating the room. Persons could be burned or injured, or a fire could start.

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

lDo not wear loose or hanging garments when using the range. They could ignite if they touch a hot surface burner and you could be burned.

lDo 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 materi- als contact surface burners, areas near surface burners or interior surfaces of oven. Other surfaces of the range may become hot enough to cause burns; such as, the oven vent opening, the surface near the vent opening, the cooktop, the oven door and window.

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

lTurn 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.

lUse 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.

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