IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION.

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.

WARNING!

When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should be followed, including the

following:

■Use this appliance only for its intended

purpose as described in this Owner’s

Manual.

■Be sure your appliance is properly installed

and grounded by a qualified technician in

accordance with the provided installation

instructions.

■ Before performing any service, disconnect

the range power supply at the household

distribution panel by removing the fuse or

switching off the circuit breaker.

■ Have the installer show you the location of

the circuit breaker or fuse. Mark it for easy

reference.

■ Do not leave children alone—children

should not be left alone or unattended in

an area where an appliance is in use. They

should never be allowed to sit or stand on

any part of the appliance.

■ Have the installer show you the location

of the range gas shut-off valve and how to

shut it off if necessary.

■Have your range installed and properly

grounded by a qualified installer, in

accordance with the Installation

Instructions. Any adjustment and service

should be performed only by qualified gas

range installers or service technicians.

■Locate the range out of kitchen traffic path

and out of drafty locations to prevent poor

air circulation.

■Be sure all packaging materials are

removed from the range before operating

it to prevent fire or smoke damage should

the packaging material ignite.

■Do not leave children alone or unattended

where a range is hot or in operation. They

could be seriously burned.

■Do not attempt to repair or replace any

part of your range unless it is specifically

recommended in this manual. All other

service should be referred to a qualified

technician.

■Be sure your range is correctly adjusted

by a qualified service technician or installer

for the type of gas (natural or LP) that is

to be used. Your range can be converted

for use with either type of gas. See the

Installation Instructions packed with

the range.

■ Plug your range into a 120-volt grounded

outlet only. Do not remove the round

grounding prong from the plug. If in

doubt about the grounding of the home

electrical system, it is your personal

responsibility and obligation to have

an ungrounded outlet replaced with a

properly grounded, three-prong outlet in

accordance with the National Electrical

Code. Do not use an extension cord with

this appliance.

WARNING: These adjustments

must be made by a qualified service

technician in accordance with the

manufacturer’s instructions and all codes

and requirements of the authority having

jurisdiction. Failure to follow these

instructions could result in serious injury or

property damage. The qualified agency

performing this work assumes

responsibility for the conversion.
