If appliance is installed near a window,
proper precautions should be taken to
prevent curtains from blowing over burn-
ers.
NEVER leave any items on the cooktop.
The hot air from the vent may ignite flam-
mable items and may increase pressure in
closed containers which may cause them to
burst.
Many aerosol-type spray cans are EXPLO-
SIVE when exposed to heat and may be
highly flammable. Avoid their use or stor-
age near an appliance.
Many plastics are vulnerable to heat. Keep
plastics away from parts of the appliance
that may become warm or hot. Do not
leave plastic items on the cooktop as they
may melt or soften if left too close to the
vent or a lighted surface burner.
To eliminate the hazard of reaching over
hot surface burners, cabinet storage should
not be provided directly above a unit. If
storage is provided, it should be limited to
items which are used infrequently and which
are safely stored in an area subjected to
heat from an appliance. Temperatures may
be unsafe for some items, such as volatile
liquids, cleaners or aerosol sprays.
Do not hang articles from any part of the
appliance or place anything against the oven.
Some fabrics are quite flammable and may
catch on fire.
When using this restaurant caliber appli-
ance, use it with extreme care, as this type
of appliance provides intense heat and can
increase the accident potential.
IN CASE OF FIRE
Turn off appliance and ventilating hood to
avoid spreading the flame. Extinguish flame
then turn on hood to remove smoke and
odor.
• Cooktop: Smother fire or flame in a pan
with a lid or cookie sheet.
NEVER pick up or move a flaming pan.
• Oven: Smother fire or flame by closing
the oven door.
Do not use water on grease fires. Use
baking soda, a dry chemical or foam-type
extinguisher to smother fire or flame.
CHILD SAFETY
NEVER leave children alone or unsuper-
vised near the appliance when it is in use or
is still hot.
NEVER allow children to sit or stand on
any part of the appliance as they could be
injured or burned.
Children must be taught that the appliance
and utensils in it can be hot. Let hot utensils
cool in a safe place, out of reach of small
children. Children should be taught that an
appliance is not a toy. Children should not
be allowed to play with controls or other
parts of the unit.

CAUTION:

NEVER store
items of interest to children in
cabinets above an appliance or on
backguard of a range. Children climb-
ing on the appliance door to reach
items could be seriously injured.
ABOUT YOUR
APPLIANCE
NEVER use appliance as a space heater to
heat or warm a room to prevent potential
hazard to the user and damage to the
appliance. Also, do not use the cooktop or
oven as a storage area for food or cooking
utensils.
Do not obstruct the flow of combustion
and ventilation air by blocking the oven vent
or air intakes. Restriction of air flow to the
burner prevents proper performance and
increases carbon monoxide emission to
unsafe levels.
Keep oven vent ducts unobstructed. Your
range is vented through the front top of the
island trim, stub back or high shelf backsplash.
Never block oven vent or air intakes. Do
not obstruct the flow of combustion and
ventilation air. Restriction of air flow to the
burner prevents proper performance.
