turn the fan on.
NEVER wear garments made of flammable material or
loose fitting or long-sleeved apparel while cooking.
Clothing may ignite or catch utensil handles.
Heating Elements
NEVER touch surface or oven heating elements, areas
near elements or interior surfaces of ovens.
Heating elements may be hot even though they are dark
in color. Areas near surface elements and interior sur-
faces of the ovens may become hot enough to cause
burns. During and after use, do not touch or let clothing
or other flammable materials contact heating elements,
areas near elements or interior surfaces of ovens until
they have had sufficient time to cool.
Other potentially hot surfaces include: Cooktop, areas
facing the cooktop, oven vent and surfaces near the vent
opening, oven doors, areas around the doors and oven
windows.
Ovens
Always place oven racks in the desired positions while
ovens are cool. Slide oven racks out to add or remove
food, using dry, sturdy potholders. Always avoid reaching
into the ovens to add or remove food. If a rack must be
moved while hot, use a dry potholder. Always turn the
ovens off at the end of cooking.
Use care when opening the oven doors. Let hot air or
steam escape before moving or replacing food.
PREPARED FOOD WARNING: Follow food
manufacturer’s instructions. If a plastic frozen food
container and/or its cover distorts, warps, or is otherwise
damaged during cooking, immediately discard the food
and its container. The food could be contaminated.
NEVER use aluminum foil to cover oven racks or oven
bottom. This could result in risk of electric shock, fire, or
damage to the appliance. Use foil only as directed in this
guide.
Ventilating Hoods
Clean range hood and filters frequently to prevent grease
or other flammable materials from accumulating on hood
or filter and to avoid grease fires.
Turn the fan on when flambéing foods (such as Cherries
Jubilee) under the hood.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
CAUTION
NEVER store items of interest to children in cabinets
above an appliance or on backguard of a range. Children
climbing on the appliance door to reach items could be
seriously injured.
NEVER leave children alone or unsupervised near the
appliance when it is in use or is still hot.
NEVER allow children to sit or stand on any part of the
appliance as they could be injured or burned.
Children must be taught that the appliance and utensils
in it can be hot. Let hot utensils cool in a safe place, out
of reach of small children. Children should be taught that
an appliance is not a toy. Children should not be allowed
to play with controls or other parts of the unit.
Child Safety
Always place a pan on a surface burner before turning it
on. Be sure you know which knob controls which surface
burner. Make sure the correct burner is turned on and
that the burner has ignited. When cooking is completed,
turn burner off before removing pan to prevent exposure
to burner flame.
Always adjust surface burner flame so that it does not
extend beyond the bottom edge of the pan. An excessive
flame is hazardous, wastes energy and may damage the
appliance, pan or cabinets above the appliance.
NEVER leave a surface cooking operation unattended
especially when using a high heat setting or when deep
fat frying. Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers
may ignite. Clean up greasy spills as soon as possible. Do
not use high heat for extended cooking operations.
NEVER heat an unopened container on the surface
burner or in the ovens. Pressure build-up may cause
container to burst resulting in serious personal injury or
damage to the appliance.
Use dry, sturdy potholders. Damp potholders may cause
burns from steam. Dish towels or other items should
never be used as potholders because they can trail across
hot surface burners and ignite or get caught on appliance
parts.
Always let quantities of hot fat used for deep fat frying
cool before attempting to move or handle.
Do not let cooking grease or other flammable materials
accumulate in or near the appliance, hood or vent fan.
Clean hood frequently to prevent grease from accumulat-
ing on hood or filter. When flaming foods under the hood
