IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USE
IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE
Enforcement Act requires the Governor of California
to publish a list of substances known to the state to
cause birth defects or other reproductive harm, and
requires businesses to warn customers of potential
exposure to such substances.
Gas appliances can cause minor exposure to four of
these substances, namely benzene, carbon
monoxide, formaldehyde and soot, caused primarily
by the imperfect combustion of natural or LP gas.
Correctly adjusted burners, indicated by a bluish
rather than a yellow flame, will minimize imperfect
combustion. Exposure to these substances can be
minimized by opening windows or using a ventilation
fan or hood.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Have the installer show you the location of the range gas shut-off valve and how to
shut it off if necessary.
• Make sure your range is properly installed and
grounded by a qualified installer, according to the
installation instructions. Any adjustment and service
should be performed only by qualified gas range
installers or service technicians.
• Plug your range into a 120-volt grounded outlet only.
Do not remove the round grounding prong from the
plug. If in doubt about the grounding of the home
electrical system, it is your personal responsibility
and obligation to have an ungrounded outlet
replaced with a properly grounded, three-prong
outlet in accordance with the National Electrical
Code. Do not use an extension cord with this range.
• DO NOT use an adapter plug, an extension cord, or
remove grounding prong from electrical power cord
to prevent fire hazard or electrical shock. Failure to
follow this warning can cause serious injury, fire or
death.
• To prevent poor air circulation, place the range out
of kitchen traffic path and out of drafty locations.
• DO NOT attempt to repair or replace any part of
your range unless it is specifically mentioned in this
manual. All other service should be referred to a
qualified technician.
• Make sure all packaging materials are removed from
the range before operating it to prevent fire or
smoke damage should the packaging material
ignite.
• DO NOT step or sit on the door. Install the Anti-
Tip Bracket packed with range.
- The range could be tipped and injury might result
from spilled hot liquid, food, or the range itself.
- If the range is pulled away from the wall for cleaning,
service, or any other reason, ensure that the Anti-Tip
Device is properly reengaged when the range is
pushed back against the wall.
• To reduce the risk of tipping of the range, the range
must be secured by properly installing anti-tip
devices.
• To check that the anti-tip bracket is properly installed:
Grasp the top rear edge of the range back guard and
carefully attempt to tilt it forward. Verify that the anti-
tip devices are engaged.
• Warming drawer or Storage drawer : Remove drawer
and visually inspect that the rear leveling leg is fully
inserted into the anti-tip bracket.
• Refer to the installation manual for proper anti-tip
bracket installation.
