IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Keep this book for later use.
Be sure your range is installed and grounded properly.
Choose pots and pans with flat bottoms, large enough to cover the entire cooktop element. This will cut down the risk of setting pot holders or clothing on fire with an uncovered element and waste less energy.
Always use care when touching cooktop ele- ments, areas near cooktop elements, oven heat- ing elements or inside the oven. Heating ele- ments could be hot enough to burn you even if they are dark in color. The oven vent duct and oven door may also become hot during range use.
Only some kinds of glass or ceramic pans can be used for cooktop cooking. Be sure that the pan you use will not break when heated on the cooktop elements.
Always change oven rack positions while oven is cool.
After broiling, alwaystake the broiler pan out of the range and clean it. Leftover grease in the broiler pan can catch on fire next time you use the pan.
Always use dry pot holders when removing pans from the oven or cooktop. Moist or damp pot holders can cause steam burns.
Always use care when opening oven door. Let hot air and steam out before moving food.
Always follow cleaning instructions in this book.
Always remove the broiler pan and other utensils from the oven before a
Never try to repair or replace any part of the range unless instructions are given in this book. All other work should be done by a skilled technician.
Never heat unopened food containers. Pressure build up may make container burst and cause injury.
Never leave jars or cans of fat or drippings on or near the range. Never let grease build up on your range. You can keep grease fires from starting if you clean up grease and spills after each range use.
Never use aluminum foil to line drip bowls or oven bottoms. Improper use of foil could start a fire.
Never block free airflow through the oven vent.
Never try to move a pan of hot fat, especially a deep fat fryer. Wait until the fat has cooled.
Never put removable heating elements in water.
Never use the cooktop without reflector pans or drip bowls being in place. If these pans or bowls are not there during cooking, wiring or other range parts may be damaged.
Never rub, move or damage the door gasket on
Never touch surface units, heating elements, or interior surfaces of the oven. They may be hot even though they appear dark in color.
