Read all instructions before using this appliance.
Save these instructions for future reference.

• Placement of Oven Racks - Always place
oven racks in desired location while oven
is cool. If rack must be moved while oven
in hot, use extreme caution and do not let
potholder contact hot heating element in
oven. Use potholders and grasp the rack
with both hands to reposition. Remove all
bakeware and utensils before moving the
rack.
• Do not use a broiler pan without its insert.
Broiler pans and inserts allow dripping fat
to drain away from the high heat of the
broiler. Do not cover the broiler insert with
aluminum foil; exposed fat and grease
could ignite.
• Protective Liners - Do not use aluminum
foil to line oven bottoms, except as
suggested in the manual. Improper instal-
lation of these liners may result in a risk of
electric shock, or fire.
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING YOUR
COOKTOP
Use Proper Flame Size — Adjust
flame size so it does not extend beyond the
edge of the utensil. The use of undersized
utensils will expose 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.
• Know which knob controls each surface
heating unit. Place a pan of food on the
surface element unit before turning it on,
and turn the element off before removing
the pan.
• When flaming foods under a ventilating
hood, turn the fan on.
• Use proper pan size — This appliance is
equipped with one or more surface units
of different sizes. Select utensils having
flat bottoms large enough to cover the
surface unit 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.
• Utensil handles should be turned inward
and not extend over adjacent surface
elements — 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 units.
• Never leave surface elements unattended
at high heat settings — Boilovers cause
smoking and greasy spillovers that may
ignite, or a pan that has boiled dry may
melt.
• Glazed cooking utensils — Only certain
types of glass, glass/ceramic, ceramic,
earthenware, or other glazed utensils are
suitable for cook top service without
breaking due to the sudden change in
temperature. Check the manufacturer’s
recommendations for cook top use.
• Improper cookware may break due to
sudden changes in temperature. Check
the cookware manufacturer’s recommen-
dations for cooktop use.
• Do not use decorative surface burner
covers. If an element is accidentally
turned on, the decorative over will
become hot and possibly melt. Burns will
occur if the hot covers are touched.
Damage may also be done to the
cooktop.
• Always turn knob to the full LITE position
when igniting top burners. Visually check
that burner has lit. Then adjust the flame
so it does not extend beyond the edge of
the utensil.
