~PORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

(continued)

Q When using cooking or roasting bags in the oven, follow the manufacturer’s directions.

Do not use your oven to dry newspapers.

If overheated, they can catch fire.

Use only glass cookware that is recommended for use in gas ovens.

Always remove the broiler pan from the oven

as soon as you finish broiling. Grease left in the pan can catch fire if oven is used without removing the grease from the broiler pan.

Make sure the broiler pan and rack are in place correctly to reduce the possibility of a grease fire.

c When broiling, if meat is too close to the ‘ flames, the fat may ignite, Trim excess fat to

prevent excessive flare-ups.

If you should have a grease fire in the broiler pan, turn off oven, and keep oven door closed to

contain fire until it burns out.

Cleaning Your Range

. Clean only parts listed in this Use and Care Guide.

Keep range clean and free of accumulations of grease or spillovers, which may ignite.

FLOOmNG AND LEVELING

Flooring Under the Range

Your range, like so many other household items, is heavy and can settle into soft floor coverings such as cushioned vinyl or carpeting. When moving the range on this type of flooring, it should be installed on

al/4-inch-thick sheet of plywood (or similar material) as follows:

Whe?~ the floor covering ends at the front of the range, the area that the range will rest on should be built up with plywood to the same level or higher than the floor covering. This will allow the range to be moved for cleaning or servicing.

Leveling the Range

Use a 1 %“ open-end or adjustable wrench to equally back out the four legs. The flanges (rims) below the sides of the cooktop must be raised above the top of the countertop. Carefully slide the range into its installation space. Observe that it is clearing the countertop. Then place a spirit level or a glass measuring cup partially filled with water on one of the oven shelves to check for levelness.

If using a spirit level, take two readings, with the level placed diagonally first in one direction and then the other.

Adjust the four legs carefully. Level the range front to back and side to side. The range legs must rest on the floor. The range must not hang from the countertop.

How to Remove Packaging Tape

To assure no damage is done to the finish of the product, the safest way to remove packaging tape adhesive. on new appliances is an application of a household liquid dishwashing detergent, mineral oil or cooking oil. Apply with a soft cloth and allow to soak. Wipe dry and then apply an appliance polish to thoroughly clean and protect the surface.

NOTE: The plastic tape must be removed from

the chrome trim on range parts. It cannot be removed if it is baked on.

Removing Packaging Materials

Check your range to insure all packaging materials and protective tape covering are removed from areas such as the door trim, cooktop frame, under burner caps, end caps, etc. before using.
