position and this must be done by a qualified service technician. See warn- ing in “Gas Safety” on page 3.

		WARNING:
		Use this appliance only for its intended use as described in this manual.
		NEVER use this appliance as a space heater to heat or warm a room.
		Doing so may result in carbon monoxide poisoning and overheating the
		appliance. Never use the appliance for storage.
Burn Prevention	• DO NOT TOUCH SURFACE UNITS OR AREAS NEAR UNITS - Surface
		units may be hot even though they are dark in color. Areas near surface
		units may become hot enough to cause burns. During and after use, do not
		touch, or let clothing, potholders, or other flammable materials contact sur-
		face units or areas near units until they have had sufficient time to cool.
		Among these areas are the cooktop and areas facing the cooktop.
	• DO NOT TOUCH HEATING ELEMENTS OR INTERIOR SURFACES OF
		OVEN - Heating elements may be hot even though they are dark in color.
		Interior surfaces of an oven become hot enough to cause burns. During and
		after use, do not touch, or let clothing, potholders, or other flammable mate-
		rials contact heating elements or interior surfaces of oven until they have
		had sufficient time to cool. Other surfaces of the appliance may become hot
		enough to cause burns. Among these surfaces are oven vent openings, sur-
		faces near these openings and oven doors.
	• Exercise caution when opening the appliance. Standing to the side, open
		the door (or drawer) slowly and slightly to let hot air and/or steam escape.
		Keep your face clear of the opening and make sure there are no children or
		pets near the unit. After the release of hot air and/or steam, proceed with
		your cooking. Keep doors shut unless necessary for cooking or cleaning
		purposes. Do not leave open doors unattended.
	• Do not heat or warm unopened food containers. Build-up of pressure may
		cause the container to burst and cause injury.
	• Always place oven racks in desired location while oven is cool. If a rack
		must be moved while oven is hot, do not let potholder contact the heating
		elements.
	• Always turn hood ON when cooking at high heat or when flambéing food
		(i.e. Crepes Suzette, Cherries Jubilee, Peppercorn Beef Flambe').
	• Use high heat settings on the cooktop only when necessary. To avoid bub-
		bling and splattering, heat oil slowly on no more than a low-medium setting.
		Hot oil is capable of causing extreme burns and injury.
	• Never move a pan of hot oil, especially a deep fat fryer. Wait until it is cool.
Child Safety	• When children become old enough to use the appliance, it is the legal
		responsibility of the parents or legal guardians to ensure that they are
		instructed in safe practices by qualified persons.
	• Do not allow anyone to climb, stand, lean, sit, or hang on any part of an
		appliance, especially a door, warming drawer, or storage drawer. This can
		damage the appliance, and the unit may tip over, potentially causing severe
		injury.
	• Do not allow children to use this appliance unless closely supervised by an
		adult. Children and pets should not be left alone or unattended in the area
		where the appliance is in use. They should never be allowed to play in its
		vicinity, whether or not the appliance is in use.
		CAUTION:
		Items of interest to children should not be stored in an appliance, in cabi-
		nets above an appliance or on the backsplash. Children climbing on an
		appliance to reach items could be seriously injured.
