Important Safety Instructions
IMPORTANT: To avoid the possibility of explosion
or fire, do not store or use combustible, flammable
or explosive vapors and liquids (such as gasoline)
inside or in the vicinity of this or any other appliance.
Also keep items that could explode, such as aerosol
cans away from the cooktop and oven. Do not store
flammable or explosive materials in adjacent cabinets
or areas.
• If you receive a damaged product, immediately
contact your dealer or builder. Do not install or use
a damaged appliance.
• Make sure that the range has been properly
installed and grounded by a qualified installer
according to the accompanying installation
instructions. Have the installer show you the
location of the circuit breaker panel or fuse box so
that you know where and how to turn off power to
the range.
• Do not install, repair or replace any part of the
range unless specifically recommended in the
literature accompanying it. A qualified service
technician should perform all other service.
• Only use the range for cooking tasks expected of
a home appliance as outlined in this manual. This
range is not intended for commercial use.
• Never allow anyone, including children to sit, stand
or climb on any part of the range, including the
door. Doing so may cause tipping, damage, serious
injury or death.
• CAUTION - Do not store items of interest to
children in cabinets above the range or on the
backguard of the range. Children climbing on the
range to reach items could be seriously injured.
• Do not tamper with the controls.
• Do not operate the cooktop without the knobs and
trim rings in place.
• Never leave cooktop elements unattended at high
heat settings. Boil-over causes smoking and greasy
spill-overs that may ignite.
• Turn the knobs to the “OFF” position prior to
removing them for cleaning.
• Keep flammable items, such as paper, cardboard,
plastic, cloth (including potholders) away from hot
surfaces. Do not place such items in the oven.
• Do not wear loose or hanging apparel when
using the range. Do not allow clothing to come
into contact with the cooktop, oven interior or
surrounding areas during and immediately after
use.
• Do not store flammable items in the oven on the
cooktop.
• Do not use towels or bulky cloth as pot holders.
• Do not hang flammable or heat sensitive objects
over the range. If the range is near a window, do
not use long curtains as window treatment. The
curtains could blow over the cooktop and create a
fire hazard.
• When deep fat frying:
▪ Be certain that the pan is large enough to
contain the desired volume of food without
overflow caused by the bubbling of the fat.
Never leave a deep fat fryer unattended.
▪ Avoid frying moist or frost-covered foods. Foods
with high water content may cause spattering or
spilling of the hot fat.
▪ Heat fat slowly, and stir together any
combination of oils and fats prior to applying
heat. Utilize a deep fat frying thermometer to
avoid heating the fat to temperatures above the
flash point.
▪ Let fat cool before attempting to handle it.
▪ Wipe up spill-overs immediately.
• DO NOT TOUCH THE SURFACES OF THE OVEN OR
COOKTOP DURING OR IMMEDIATELY AFTER USE.
Surface elements may be hot even though they are
dark in color.
• Use cookware only for its intended purpose. Check
the manufacturer’s recommendations before use
to determine if a utensil is suitable for use on
a cooktop or in an oven. Certain types of glass,
ceramic and earthenware are not suitable for use
on a cooktop. Personal injury or damage may result
from the improper use of cookware.
• Glazed cookware not designed for high heat use
may crack or break, causing a spill or burn hazard.
Before using glazed cookware, such as glass,
ceramic or earthenware, check the manufacturer’s
temperature and usage recommendations.
• Do not allow pans to boil dry.
• This appliance is equipped with heating elements of
different sizes. Select utensils having flat bottoms
large enough to cover the heating element. The use
of undersized utensils will expose a portion of the
heating element to direct contact and may result in
ignition of clothing. Proper relationship of utensil to
element will also improve efficiency.
• Exercise caution when opening the oven door. Let
hot air or steam escape before looking or reaching
into the oven.
• Use extreme caution if adding water to food on a
hot cooktop or in the oven. The steam can cause
serious burns or scalds.
