IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS l
Read all instructions before using
the range.
l
Install or locate the range only in
accordance with the provided
Installation Instructions. It is recom-
mended that the ran
stalled by a qualifie 8 e be in-
installer. The
range must be properly con-
nected to electrical supply and
grounded.
l
To reduce the risk of tipping of the
appliance, the appliance must
be secured by a properly in-
stalled anti-tip bracket. To check if
the bracket is installed properly,
remove the storage drawer [see
page14 1,
and verify that the anti-
tip brat et is engaged.
l
Do not use the range for warming
or heating the room. Persons could
be burned or injured, or a fire
could start.
l
Do not leave children alone or
unattended in area where the
range is in use. They should never
be allowed to sit or stand on any
part of the range. They could be
burned or injured.
l
Do not wear loose or hanging gar-
ments when using the range. They
could ignite if they touch a hot sur-
face unit or heating element and
you could be burned.
l
Do not repair or replace any part
of the range unless specifically
recommended in this manual. All
other servicin
to a qualified B should be referred
echnician.
l
Do not store flammable materials
in or near the range. They could
explode or burn.
l
Do not use water on grease fires.
Never pick up a flaming pan.
Smother flaming pan on cooktop
by covering with a well-fitted lid,
cookie sheet or flat tray. Flaming
grease outside of pan can be
extinguished with baking soda or,
if available, a multipurpose dry
chemical or foam-type
extinguisher.
l
Use only dry potholders. Moist or
damp potholders on hot surfaces
may result in burns from steam. Do
not let potholder touch hot heat-
ing elements. Do not use a towel or
bulky cloth for a potholder. They
could catch on fire.
l
Select a pan with a flat bottom
that is about the same size as the
surface unit. If pan is smaller than
the surface unit, some of the heat-
ing element will be exposed and
may result in the igniting of
clothing or potholders. Correct
pan size also improves cooking
efficiency.
l
Never leave surface units unat-
tended at high heat settings. A
boil-over could result and cause
smoking and greasy spill-overs
that may ignite.
l
Check to be sure glass cooking
utensils are safe for use on the
cooktop. Only certain types of
glass, glass-ceramic, ceramic,
earthenware or other glazed
utensils are suitable for cooktops
without breaking due to the
sudden change in temperature.
l
Turn pan handles inward, but not
over other surface units. This will
help reduce the chance of burns,
igniting of flammable materials,
and spills due to bumping of the
pan.
l
Use care when opening oven
door. Let hot air or steam escape
before removing or replacing
food.
