IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION (cont’d)

IMPORTANT SAFEGAURDS

•Do not use the broiler pan without its insert. The broiler pan and its insert allow dripping fat or grease to drain and be kept away from the high heat of the broiler. Do not cover the insert with foil. Exposed fat or grease could ignite.

•Do not touch a hot oven light bulb with a damp cloth, as it could break. Disconnect the electrical service cord or shut off the power to the oven before removing and replacing the bulb.

•Allow parts to cool to room temperature before touching or removing them from the range. When a surface burner is first turned off, the burner and grate are hot enough to cause burns.

•Clean the range regularly to keep all parts free of fat or grease which could catch fire. Pay particular attention to the area underneath each surface burner. Exhaust fan ventilating hoods and grease filters should be cleaned regularly. Do not allow fat or grease to accumulate. Greasy deposits in the fan could catch fire. Refer to the hood manufacturer’s instructions for cleaning.

•Glazed Cookware: Only certain types of glass, glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed cookwares are suitable for rangetop service without breaking, due to the sudden change in temperature. Check the cookware manufacturer’s recommendations for rangetop use.

•Do not place plastic salt and pepper shakers, spoon holders, or plastic wrappings on top of the range. These items could melt or ignite. Potholders, towels, or wooden spoons could catch fire if placed too close to the flame.

•Do not use a wok equipped with a metal ring that extends beyond the burner. Because this ring traps heat, the burner and grate could be damaged. Also, the burner may not work properly, creating a carbon monoxide level above current health standards.

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

•Flexible Connectors: If the gas range/oven is connected to a gas supply with a metal flexible connector, move the range/oven with CAUTION for service or cleaning. Flexible connectors are not intended for repeated bending. Do not allow cleaners to make contact with flexible connectors.

The connector and its fittings are designed for use only on the original installation and are not to be reused for another appliance or at another location.

•It is good practice for each household to have an appropriate fire extinguisher for use in the event of a house fire.

•Disconnect the range from electrical supply before attempting to service or move it.

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.

NOTE: The instructions appearing in this owner’s guide are not meant to cover every possible condition and situation that may occur. Common sense and caution must be practiced when operating and maintaining any appliance.

ENERGY

SAVING TIPS

Surface Cooking:

•Use lids when surface cooking. A lid traps steam and uses it to speed up the cooking process. If you have a pressure cooker or vegetable steamer, use it. You will save time and cut energy costs.

•Use medium-weight, flat bottomed pans that match the flame size. Choose pans made of metals that conduct heat well.

•When cooking on a surface burner, use as little water as possible to reduce cooking time.

Oven Cooking:

•Preheat the oven only when a recipe tells you. Put roasts and casseroles into a cold oven, then turn the oven on.

•Opening the oven door often to check on foods wastes energy.

•Use the oven to prepare complete meals. For instance, start a roast, add vegetables when the meat is half- cooked, and then warm rolls or dessert after the main dishes are cooked.

•Thaw frozen foods before cooking. Thawed food requires less cooking energy than frozen food.

•Make it a habit to turn the oven off before removing the cooked food.
