Important Safety Instructions
• Do not leave children alone--Children should not be
left alone or unattended in the area where appliance
is in use. They should never be allowed to sit or stand
on any part of the appliance.
• DO NOT TOUCH SURFACE BURNERS, AREAS
NEAR THESE BURNERS, OVEN HEATING
ELEMENTS OR INTERIOR SURFACES OF THE
OVEN. Both surface burners and oven heating
elements may be hot even though they are dark in color.
Areas near surface burners may become hot enough to
cause burns. During and after use, do not touch, or let
clothing or other flammable materials touch these areas
until they have had sufficient time to cool. Among these
areas are the cooktop, surfaces facing the cooktop, the
oven vent openings and surfaces near these openings,
oven door and window.
• Wear proper apparel--Loose-fitting or hanging
garments should never be worn while using the
appliance. Do not let clothing or other flammable
materials contact hot surfaces.
• Do not use water or flour on grease fires--Smother
the fire with a pan lid, or use baking soda, a dry
chemical or foam-type extinguisher.
• When heating fat or grease, watch it closely. Fat or
grease may catch fire if allowed to become too hot.
In case of fire or gas leak, be sure to
turn off the main gas shutoff valve.
• Use only dry potholders--Moist or damp potholders
on hot surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do
not let potholders touch hot heating elements. Do not
use a towel or other bulky cloth instead of a potholder.
• Do not heat unopened food containers--Build-up of
pressure may cause container to burst and result in
injury.
• Remove the oven doors from any unused range 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 ovens off. If the ovens are not turns off and the power
resumes, the oven may begin to operate again. Food left
unattended could catch fire or spoil.
Use proper pan size--Adjust flame size
so it does not extend beyond the edge of the utensil.
The use of undersize 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 sealed gas burners. If you use a stove top grill on
a sealed gas burner, it will cause incomplete combustion
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 temperature above 0°C/32°F for at least 3 hours
before connecting 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 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 units of different sizes. Select
utensils having flat bottoms large enough to cover the
surface unit. The use of undersized utensils will expose
a portion of the surface heating to direct contact and
may result in ignition of clothing. Proper relationship of
utensil to the surface unit will also improve efficiency.
• Utensil handles should be turned inward and 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 burners.
• Never leave surface units unattended at high heat
settings--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 use of
protective liners or aluminum foil may result in a risk of
electric shock or fire or short circuit.
• Glazed cooking utensils--Only certain types of glass,
glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed
utensils 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 the burners because the covers may
cause overheating. Air will be blocked from the burner
and cause combustion problems.
FOR GLASS COOKTOPS ONLY
• Do not clean or operate a broken cooktop--lf
cooktop should break, cleaning solutions and spillovers
may penetrate the broken cooktop and create a risk of
electric shock. Contact a qualified technician
immediately.
• Clean cooktop glass with caution--If a wet sponge or
cloth is used to wipe spills on a hot cooking area, be
careful to avoid a steam burn. Some cleaners can
