READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.
WARNING!
For your safety, the information in this manual must be followed to minimize the risk of fire, electric
shock, or to prevent property damage, personal injury, or loss of life.
IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE
The California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act requires the Governor of California to
publish a list of substances known to the state to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive
harm, and requires businesses to warn customers of potential exposure to such substances.
The fiberglass insulation in self-clean ovens gives off a very small amount of carbon monoxide
during the cleaning cycle. Exposure can be minimized by venting with an open window or using a
ventilation fan or hood.
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
installer in accordance with the provided
installation instructions.
■ Have the installer show you the location of
the circuit breaker or fuse. Mark it for easy
reference.
■ Do not attempt to repair or replace any
part of your range unless it is specifically
recommended in this manual. All other
servicing should be referred to a qualified
technician.
■ Do not store flammable materials in an
oven or near the cooktop.
■ Before performing any service, disconnect
the range power supply at the household
distribution panel by removing the fuse or
switching off the circuit breaker.
■ 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.
■ Do not allow anyone to climb, stand or
hang on the door or cooktop. They could
damage the range and cause severe
personal injury.
■ Teach children not to play with the
controls or any other part of the range.
■ CAUTION: Items of interest to children
should not be stored in cabinets above
a range—children climbing on the range
to reach items could be seriously injured.
■ Never wear loose-fitting or hanging
garments while using the appliance.
Be careful when reaching for items stored
over the range. Flammable material could
be ignited if brought in contact with hot
surface units or heating elements and may
cause severe burns.
■ Use only dry pot holders—moist or damp
pot holders on hot surfaces may result in
burns from steam. Do not let pot holders
touch hot surface units or heating
elements. Do not use a towel or other
bulky cloth in place of pot holders.
■ For your safety, never use your appliance
for warming or heating the room.
