Gas Appliance Safety
Have the installer show you where the gas shut-off
valve is located.
If a burner goes out and gas escapes, open windows
and doors. Wait until gas dissipates before using the
appliance.
If you smell gas, your installer has not done a proper
job of checking for leaks. If the connections are not
perfectly tight, you can have a small leak and,
therefore, a faint smell. Finding a gas leak is not a "do-
it-yourself" procedure. Some leaks can only be found
with the burner control in the ON position and this must
be done by a qualified service technician. See “WHAT
TO DO IF YOU SMELL GAS” on page 1.
During a power failure, only the cooktop burners can
be lit manually.
To prevent carbon monoxide build-up, do not block
appliance air vents.
For proper lighting and performance of burners, keep
igniters clean and dry.
IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE: The California
Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act
requires the Governor of California to publish a list of
substances known to the state to cause cancer, birth
defects or other reproductive harm, and requires
businesses to warn customers of potential exposure to
such substances.
The burning of gas cooking fuel can generate some by-
products which are on the list. To minimize exposure to
these substances, always operate this unit according
to the instructions contained in this booklet and provide
good ventilation.
Birds have very sensitive respiratory systems. Keep
pet birds out of the kitchen or other rooms where
kitchen fumes could reach them. Kitchen fumes such
as overheating margarines and cooking oils may be
harmful.
