iMPORTANT iNSTRUCTiONS FOR USING

YOUR COOKTOP

*Know which knob controls each surface heating unit. Place a pan of food on the unit before turning it on, and then turn the unit off: before removing the pan.

*Use proper pan size. This appliance is equipped with one or more surface units of different sizes. Select utensils having fiat bottoms large enough to cover the surface unit. The use of undersized utensils will expose a portion of the surface heating unit to direct contact and may result in ignition of clothing. Proper relationship of utensil to the surface unit will also improve efficiency.

*Utensil handles should be turned inward and not extend over adjacent surface units. To reduce the risk of burns, ignition of flammable materials, and spillage due to unintentional contact with the utensil.

Never leave surface units unattended m

Boilovers cause smoking and greasy

accumulations that may ignite, or a pan that has boiled dry may melt.

Glazed cooking utensilsmOnly certain types of

glass, glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or

other glazed utensils are suitable for rangetop

service without breaking due to the sudden

change in temperature. Check the manufacturer"s

recommendations for cooktop use.

iMPORTANT iNSTRUCTiONS FOR USING

YOUR OVEN

*Use Care When Opening an Oven Door or

a Warmer Drawer_Stand to the side of the appliance 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 Unobstructed. The oven is vented at the at the center trim above the oven. Touching the surfaces in this area when the oven is operating may cause severe burns. Also, do

not place plastic or heat-sensitive items near the oven vent. These items could melt or ignite.

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. Aluminum foil linings may trap heat, causing a fire hazard.

*Placement of Oven Racks. Always place oven racks in desired location while oven is cool. Remove all utensils from the rack before removing rack. If rack must be moved while oven is hot, use extreme caution. Use pot holders and grasp the rack with both hands to reposition. Do not let pot holders contact the hot oven element or interior of the oven.

Do not use the broiler pan without its insert. The broiler pan and grid allow dripping fat to drain and be kept away from the high heat of the broiler.

Do not cover the broiler grid or oven bottom with aluminum foil. Exposed fat and grease could ignite.
