SURFACE COOKING UNITS

1.Use proper pan size. This appliance is equipped with one or more surface units of different size. 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. Use of oversized utensils concentrates heat on cooking surface and can cause damage to range. Proper relationship of utensil to burner improves efficiency.

2.Never leave surface units unattended. Boilover causes smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite.

3.Glazed cooking utensils—Only certain types of glass, ceramic, earthware, or other glazed utensils are suitable for rangetop service without breaking due to sudden change in temperature.

4.Utensil handles should be turned inward and not extend over adjacent surface units. To reduce the risk of burns, ignition of flammable materials, and spillage due to unintentional contact with the utensil, the handle of a utensil should be positioned so that it is turned inward, and does not extend over adjacent surface units.

5.Do not soak removable heating elements. Heating elements should never be immersed in water.

GLASS/CERAMIC COOKING SURFACES

1.Do not cook on broken cooktop. If cooktop should break, cleaning solutions and spillovers may penetrate the broken cooktop and create a risk of electrical shock. Contact a qualified technician immediately.

2.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.

OVENS

1.Use care when opening door. Let hot air or steam escape before removing or replacing food.

2.Do not heat unopened food containers. Build-up of pressure may cause container to burst and result in injury.

3.Keep oven vent ducts unobstructed.

4.Placement of oven racks. Always place oven racks in desired location while oven is cool. If rack is removed while oven is hot, do not let potholder contact hot heating element in oven.

5.Protective liners. Do not use aluminum foil to line drip bowls or oven bottoms. Improper installation of these liners may result in a risk of electrical shock, or fire.

SELF-CLEANING OVENS

1.Do not clean door gasket. The door gasket is essential for a good seal. Care should be taken not to rub, damage, or move the gasket.

2.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 liner.

3.Clean only parts listed in manual.

4.Before self-cleaning the oven, remove broiler pan, oven racks, and other utensils.

5.Remove all items from rangetop and backguard.

VENTILATION HOODS

1.Clean ventilation hoods frequently. Grease should not be allowed to accumulate on hood or filter.

2.When flaming foods, turn fan off. The fan, if operating, may spread the flame.

In Case of Fire

Fires can occur as a result of over cooking or excessive grease. Though a fire is unlikely, if one occurs, proceed as follows:

Surface Element Fire

1.Smother the fire with a nonflammable lid or baking soda, or use a Class ABC or BC extinguisher. Not water. Not salt. Not flour.

2.As soon as it is safe to do so, turn the surface controls to OFF. Turn off power at main circuit breaker or fuse box.

Oven Fires

1.If you see smoke from your oven, do not open oven.

2.Press OVEN CANCEL to turn oven off.

3.As an added precaution, turn off power at main circuit breaker or fuse box.

4.Turn on vent to remove smoke.

5.Allow food or grease to burn itself out in oven.

6.If smoke and fire persist, call fire department.

7.If there is any damage to components, call an authorized servicer before using range.

Precautions

•Do not cook food directly on rangetop surface, always use cookware.

•Do not mix household cleaning products. Chemical mixtures may interact with objectionable or even hazardous results.

•Do not put plastic items on warm cooking areas. They may melt and stick.

•Do not slide rough metal objects across rangetop surface. Scratching or metal marking can result.

•Do not leave fat heating unless you remain nearby. Fat can ignite if overheated by spilling onto hot surfaces.

•Do not allow pots to boil dry as this can cause damage to cooking surface and pan.

•Do not use rangetop surface as a cutting board.

•Do not use range for storage or as a display counter.
