9WARNING
Personal injury or death from electrical shock may occur if the range is not installed by a qualified installer or electrician.
•Follow the manufacturer’s directions when using cooking or roasting bags.
•Hold the handle of the pan when stirring or turning food. This helps prevent spills and movement of the pan.
Any additions, changes or conversions required in order for this appliance to satisfactorily meet the application needs must be made by a qualified technician.
•Use Proper Pan Size. The use of undersized cookware will expose a portion of the heating element or burner to direct contact and may result in ignition of clothing.
Select cookware having flat bottoms large enough to cover the surface heating unit. This appliance is equipped with one or more surface units of different size. Proper relationship of cookware to heating element or burner will also improve efficiency.
The LP Gas Conversion kit should be installed by a qualified service technician. When installing the kit be sure to follow the LP Gas Conversion Installation Instructions carefully.
•Cookware not approved for use with glass ceramic cooktops may break with sudden temperature changes. Use only pans that are appropriate for glass ceramic cooktops (only certain types of glass, heatproof glass, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed utensils are suitable). See Cookware Selection Guide for further details.
•Always position handles of utensils inward so they do not extend over adjacent work areas, burners, or the edge of the cooktop. This reduces the risk of fires, spills and burns.
•CAUTION: Plastic containers or plastic wrap can melt if in direct contact with the drawer or a hot utensil. If it melts onto the drawer, it may not be removable.
