IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS (continued)
• Remove the oven door from any unused appliance if it
is to be stored or discarded.
• IMPORTANT—Do not attempt to operate the oven
during a power failure. If the power fails, always turn
the oven off. If the oven is not turned off and the power
resumes, the oven may begin to operate again. Food left
unattended could catch fire or
spoil.
Use Proper Flame Size—Adjust flame size
so it does not extend beyond the edge of the utensil. The
use of undersized utensils will exposed 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.
Do not use stove top grills on the burner
grates of your sealed gas burners. If you use a stove top
grill on a sealed gas burner, it will cause incomplete combus-
tion and can result in exposure to carbon monoxide levels
above allowable current standards. This can be hazardous to
your health.
Electronic controllers can be damaged by
cold temperatures. When you use your appliance for the
first time, or if it has not been used for a long period of
time, make sure that it has been exposed to a tempera-
ture above 0°C/32°F for at least 3 hours before connect-
ing it to the power supply.
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING YOUR
COOKTOP
• Know which knob controls each surface heating unit.
Always turn the knob to the LITE position when igniting the
burners. Visually check that the burner has lit. Then adjust
the flame so it does not extend beyond the edge of the
utensil.
• Use Proper Pan Size—This appliance is equipped with one
or more surface burners of different sizes. Select utensils
having flat bottoms large enough to cover the surface
burner. The use of undersized utensils will expose a portion
of the surface burner to direct contact and may result in
ignition of clothing. Proper relationship of utensil to the
surface burner will also improve efficiency.
• Utensil Handles Should Be Turned Inward and Should
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 burner.
• Never Leave Surface Burners Unattended—Boilovers
cause smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite, or a
pan that has boiled dry may melt.
• Protective liners— Do not use aluminum foil to line oven
bottom or any other part of the appliance. Only use
aluminum foil as recommended for baking if used as a cover
placed on the food. Any other used of protective liners or
aluminum foil may result in a risk of electric shock or fire or
a short circuit.
• Glazed Cooking Utensils—Only certain types of glass,
glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed uten-
sils are suitable for rangetop service without breaking due to
the sudden change in temperature. Check the
manufacturer's recommendations for rangetop use.
• Do Not Use Decorative Surface Burner Covers. If a
burner is accidentally turned on, the decorative cover will
become hot and possibly melt. Burns will occur if the hot
covers are touched. Damage may also be done to the
cooktop or burners because the covers may cause overheat-
ing. Air will be blocked from the burner and cause
combustion problems.
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING YOUR
OVEN
• Use Care When Opening Door or Warmer Drawer (if
equipped)—Stand to the side of the appliance when
opening the door of a hot oven. Let hot air or steam escape
before you remove or replace food in the oven/warmer
drawer.
• Keep Oven Vent Ducts Unobstructed. The oven is vented
at the rear of the cooktop. Touching the surfaces in this area
when the oven is operating may cause severe burns. Also,
do not place plastic or heat-sensitive items on or near the
oven vent. These items could melt or ignite.
• Placement of Oven/Warmer Drawer (if equipped)
Racks. Always place oven racks in desired location while
oven/drawer (if equipped) is cool. Remove all utensils from
the rack before removing rack. If rack must be moved while
oven is hot, use extreme caution. Use potholders and grasp
the rack with both hands to reposition. Do not let potholders
contact the hot oven element or interior of the oven/warmer
drawer (if equipped).
• Do not use the broiler pan without its insert. The broiler
pan and grid allow dripping fat to drain and be kept away
from the high heat of the broiler.
• Do not cover the broiler or warmer drawer (if
equipped) grid with aluminum foil. Exposed fat and
grease could ignite.
• Do not touch a hot light bulb with a damp cloth. Doing
so could cause the bulb to break. Disconnect the appliance
or turn off the power to the appliance before removing and
replacing light bulb.
