iMPORTANT SAFETY iNSTRUCTiONS

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.

Stepping, leaning, sitting or pulling down on the door of this appliance can result

in serious injuries and may also cause damage to the appliance. Do not allow children to climb or play around the appliance. The weight of a child on an open door may cause the range to tip, resulting in serious burns or other injury.

Do not use the ovens for storage.

Do not store items of interest to children in the cabinets above an appliance. Children climbing on the appliance to reach items could be seriously injured.

* Storage on Appliance. Flammable materials should not be stored in an oven, near surface burners. This includes paper, plastic and cloth

items, such as cookbooks, plasticware and

towels, as well as flammable liquids. Do not store explosives, such as aerosol cans, on or near the appliance.

*Do not leave children alone. Children should

not be left alone or unattended in the area

where an appliance is in use. They should

never be allowed to sit or stand on any part of the appliance.

*DO NOT TOUCH SURFACE BURNERS, AREAS NEAR THESE BURNERS OR iNTERiOR SURFACES OF THE OVEN. Both surface and

oven burners may be hot even though flames are not visible. Areas near surface burners may become hot enough to cause burns. During and

after use, do not touch, or let clothing or other

flammable materials touch these areas until they have had sufficient time to cool. Among these areas are the cooktop, surface facing the cooktop, the oven vent openings and surfaces near these openings, oven door and window.

*Wear Proper Apparel. Loose=fitting or hanging garments should never be worn while using

the appliance. Do not let clothing or other

flammable materials contact hot surfaces.

*Do Not Use Water or Flour on Grease Fires. Smother the fire with a pan lid, or use baking

soda, a dry chemical or foam-type extinguisher.

*When heating fat or grease, watch it closely. Fat or grease may catch fire if allowed to become too hot.

*Use Only Dry Potholders. Moist or damp potholders on hot surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do not let the potholders touch hot heating burners. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth instead of a potholder.

*Do Not Heat Unopened Food Containers. Buildup of pressure may cause the container to burst and result in injury.

*Remove the oven door from any unused

appliance if it is to be stored or discarded.

IMPORTANT--Do not attempt to operate the

appliance during a power failure. If power fails,

always turn off: the appliance. If the appliance is not turned off and the power resumes, it will begin to operate again. Once the power resumes, reset the clock and oven function.

iMPORTANT iNSTRUCTiONS FOR USING

YOUR COOKTOP

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. Proper relationship of utensil to flame will also improve efficiency.

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

*Always turn knob to the full LITE position when igniting top burners. Visually check that burner has lit. Then adjust the flame so it does not extend beyond the edge of the utensil.

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

the utensil, the handle of the utensil should be positioned so that it is turned inward, and does not extend over adjacent surface burners
