IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Read all instructions before using this appliance.
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 fiberglass insulation in self-clean ovens
gives off a very small amount of carbon
monoxide during the cleaning cycle. Exposure
can be minimized by venting with an open
window or using a ventilation fan or hood.
When using electrical appliances, basic safety
precautions should be followed, including the
following:
• Use this appliance only for its intended use
as described in this guide.
• Be sure your appliance is properly installed
and grounded by a qualified technician in
accordance with the provided installation
instructions.
• Do not attempt to repair or replace any
part of your range unless it is specifically
recommended in this guide. All other servicing
should be referred to a qualified technician.
WARNING
—
All ranges can tip and injury could
result. To prevent accidental tipping
of the range, attach it to the wall or
floor by installing the Anti-Tip device
supplied. Make sure the chain fits
securely into the slot in the bracket.
If you pull the range out from the wall
for any reason, make sure the device is
properly engaged when you push the range back
against the wall. If it is not, there is a possible risk
of the range tipping over and causing injury if you
or a child stand, sit or lean on an open door.
Please refer to the Anti-Tip device information in
this guide. Failure to take this precaution could
result in tipping of the range and injury.
• Have the installer show you the location of the
circuit breaker or fuse. Mark it for easy reference.
• Before performing any service, DISCONNECT
THE RANGE POWER SUPPLY AT THE
HOUSEHOLD DISTRIBUTION PANEL
BY REMOVING THE FUSE OR SWITCHING
OFF THE CIRCUIT BREAKER.
• Do not leave children alone— children should
not be left alone or unattended in an area where an
appliance is in use. They should never be allowed
to sit or stand on any part of the appliance.
• Do not allow anyone to climb, stand or hang
on the door, drawer or cooktop. They could
damage the range and even tip it over, causing
severe personal injury.
• Teach children not to play with the controls
or any other part of the range.
• Never leave the oven door open when you are
not watching the range.
• Always keep combustible wall coverings, curtains
or drapes a safe distance from your range.
• Always keep dish towels, dish cloths, pot
holders and other linens a safe distance
from your range.
• Always keep wooden and plastic utensils and
canned food a safe distance away from your range.
• CAUTION: ITEMS OF INTEREST TO
CHILDREN SHOULD NOT BE STORED IN
CABINETS ABOVE A RANGE OR ON THE
BACKSPLASH OF A RANGE—CHILDREN
CLIMBING ON THE RANGE TO REACH
ITEMS COULD BE SERIOUSLY INJURED.
• Never wear loose-fitting or hanging garments
while using the appliance. Be careful when
reaching for items stored over the range. Flammable
material could be ignited if brought in contact
with hot surface units or heating elements and
may cause severe burns.
• Use only dry pot holders—moist
or damp pot holders on hot surfaces
may result in burns from steam.
Do not let pot holders touch hot surface units or
heating elements. Do not use a towel or other
bulky cloth. Such cloths can catch fire on a hot
surface unit or heating element.
• Do not store flammable materials in an oven or
near the cooktop.
