Be safe

Your new Capital PERFORMANCE SERIES™ gas range has been designed to be a safe, reliable appliance when properly used and maintained. If not properly used, it could be dangerous. Read ALL the instructions in this Use and Care Guide carefully before using this range.

WARNING!

These precautions will reduce the risk of burns, electric shock, fire, and injury to persons. Use extreme care when using this restaurant caliber range as this appliance provides intense heat and can increase accident potential.

Safety precautions must be followed when using any kitchen appliance.

INSTALLATION SAFETY:

Insure proper installation and servicing. Follow the installation instructions provided with this product. Have the range installed and grounded by a qualified technician.

Have the installer show you where the gas supply shut off valve is located so that you know how and where to turn off the gas to the range.

If you smell gas, your installer has not done a proper job of checking for leaks. If the connections are not perfectly tight, you can have a small leak and therefore a smell a faint gas odor. Finding a gas leak is not a “do-it-yourself” procedure.

Some leaks can only be found with the burner control in the “ON” position and a qualified service technician must do this.

BURNER SAFETY:

In the event a burner goes out and gas escapes, open a window or door immediately. DO NOT attempt to use the range until the gas has had time to dissipate. Wait at least 5 minutes before using the range.

DO NOT repair or replace any part of the appliance unless specifically recommended in this manual. All other servicing should be referred to a qualified technician.

If the range is near a window, be certain the curtains do not blow over or near the range burners, griddle or broiler section; they could catch fire and cause serious injury.

CHILD SAFETY:

Children SHOULD NOT be left alone or unattended in an area where appliances are in use. They should never be allowed to sit or stand on any part of the appliance.

CAUTION! Do not store items of interest to children above the range or behind it. If children should climb onto the appliance to reach these items, they could be seriously injured.

STORAGE SAFETY:

NEVER use any part of the range for storage. Flammable materials can catch fire and plastic items may melt or ignite.

GREASE FIRE SAFETY:

DO NOT USE WATER ON GREASE FIRES! Turn appliance off and smother fire with baking soda or use a dry chemical or foam-type extinguisher.

FLAMMABLE MATERIALS SAFETY:

NEVER let clothing, pot holders, or other flammable materials come into contact with or too close to any element, burner, or burner grate until it has cooled. Fabric may ignite and result in personal injury.

USE ONLY DRY POT HOLDERS. Moist or damp potholders on hot surfaces may cause burns from the steam. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth in place of potholders. Do not let potholders touch hot elements, hot burners, or burner grates.

ALWAYS use utensils that have flat bottoms, large enough to cover the burner. The use of undersized utensils could expose a portion of the flame and may result in ignition of clothing.

CLOTHING SAFETY:

FOR PERSONAL SAFETY, wear proper

apparel. Loose fitting garments or hanging sleeves should never be worn while using this appliance. Some synthetic fabrics are highly flammable and should not be worn while cooking.
