WARNING!
Due to the nature of cooking, fires can occur as a

fire is unlikely, if one occurs proceed as follows:
Oven Fires
1. Do not open the oven door.
2. Turn all controls to the OFF position.
3. As an added precaution turn off the electricity at
the main circuit breaker or fuse box and the gas
at the main supply valve.
4. Allow the food or grease to burn itself out in the
oven.
If smoke or fire persist call the local fire department.
To avoid risk of property damage or personal injury do
not obstruct the flow of combustion or ventilation air to
the oven.
To avoid risk of electrical shock, serious personal
injury or death: Verify the oven has been properly
grounded and always disconnect the electrical supply
before servicing this unit.

models must not exceed 14 inches W.C.P.
Safety Practices for Servicer
Safe and satisfactory operation of dual fuel ranges
depends upon its design and proper installation.
Servicing
Listed below are some general precautions and safety
practices which should be followed in order to protect the
service technician and consumer during service and after
service has been completed.
1. Gas smell—Extinguish any and all open flames and
open windows.
2. Turn gas off—Service range with gas turned off
unless testing requires it.
3. Checking for gas leaks—Never check for leaks with
any kind of open flame. Soap and water solution
should be used for this purpose. Apply solution to
suspected area and watch for air bubbles which
indicates a leak. Correct leaks by tightening fittings,
screws, connections, applying approved compound,
or installing new parts.
4. Using lights—Use a hand flashlight when servicing
ranges or checking for gas leaks. Electric switches
should not be operated where leaks are suspected.
This will avoid creating arcing or sparks which could
ignite the gas. If electric lights are already turned on,
they should not be turned off.
