Safety Symbols and Labels

DANGER

Immediate hazards that WILL result in severe personal injury or death.

WARNING

Hazards or unsafe practices that COULD result in severe personal injury or death.

CAUTION

Hazards or unsafe practices that COULD result in minor personal injury or property damage.

WARNING

NEVER use this appliance as a space heater to heat or warm the room. Doing so may result in carbon monoxide poisoning and overheating of the appliance.

WARNING

NEVER cover any slots, holes or passages in the oven bottom or cover an entire rack with materials such as aluminum foil. Doing so blocks air flow through the oven and may cause carbon monoxide poisoning. Aluminum foil linings may also trap heat, causing a fire hazard.

CALIFORNIA PROPOSITION 65 WARNING

The burning of gas cooking fuel generates some by-products that are on the list of substances which are known by the State of California to cause cancer or reproductive harm. California law requires businesses to warn customers of potential exposure to such substances. To minimize exposure to these substances, always operate this unit according to the use and care manual, ensuring you provide good ventilation when cooking with gas.

DANGER

IMPORTANT: If you smell gas:

•Do not use or light any appliance.

•Do not touch any electrical switch or use any electrical devices, including the telephone, in your building.

•From a neighbors phone, immediately call the gas supplier. Follow the gas supplier’s instructions.

•If you cannot contact the gas supplier, call the fire department.

IMPORTANT: Do not store or use combustible, flammable or explosive vapors and liquids (such as gasoline) inside or in the vicinity of this or any other appliance. Also keep items that could explode, such as aerosol cans, away from the burners and the oven. Do not store flammable or explosive materials in adjacent cabinets or areas.

IMPORTANT: Child entrapment and suffocation are not problems of the past. Junked or abandoned appliances are still dangerous, even if they sit out for “just a few days.” When taking an appliance out of service, please follow the instructions below to help prevent accidents:

•Take off the door.

•Leave the racks in place so children cannot easily climb inside.

•Cut the prongs off the power cable plug and discard them.

•Cut the power cable off and discard it separately from the old appliance.
