IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING YOUR OVEN
•Never use the appliance for warming or heating the room. Doing so may result in carbon monoxide poisoning.
•Use care when opening oven door, lower oven door, or warmer drawer (some models). Stand to the side of the range when opening the door of a hot oven. Let hot air or steam escape before you remove or replace food in the oven.
•Keep oven vent ducts clear. Touching surfaces in this area when the oven is on may cause severe burns. Do not place plastic or
•Always handle oven racks when the oven is cool. Place oven racks in desired positions while the oven is cool. If a rack must be moved while the oven is hot, use extreme caution. Use potholders and grasp the rack with both hands to reposition. Do not let potholders contact the hot heating elements in the oven. Remove all cookware and utensils before moving the rack.
•Do not use a broiler pan without its insert. Do not cover the broiler insert with aluminum foil; exposed fat and grease could ignite.
•Do not use aluminum foil or other protective liners to line the oven bottom. Only use aluminum foil as recommended in this manual. Improper installation of these liners may result in risk of electric shock or fire.
•Do not cook food on the oven bottom. Always cook in proper cookware and always use the over racks.
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING YOUR COOK TOP
WARNING
Use Proper Flame Size — Adjust flame size so it does not extend beyond the edge of the utensil. The use of undersized utensils will expose a portion of the burner flame to direct contact and may result in ignition of clothing.
•Know which knob controls each surface burner. Place a pan of food on the burner before turning it on, and turn the burner off before removing the pan.
•Always turn knob to the full LITE position when igniting top burners and check that burner has lit. Adjust flame so it does not extend beyond the edge of cookware.
•Utensil handles should be turned inward and not extend over adjacent surface burners.
•Never leave surface burners unattended at high heat settings — spill overs cause smoking and greasy spills that may ignite, or a pan that has boiled dry may melt.
•Glazed cooking utensils — Only certain types of cookware are suitable for cook top service without breaking due to the sudden change in tempera- ture. Check the manufacturer’s recommendations for cook top use.
•When you are flaming foods under a ventilating hood, turn the fan on.
