Maintenance
CAUTION
Oven Door
Do not place excessive weight on or stand on an open
oven door. This could cause the range to tip over, break
the door, or injure the user.
Oven Window
To protect the oven door window:
1. Do not use abrasive cleaning agents such as steel wool
scouring pads or powdered cleansers as they may scratch
the glass.
2. Do not hit the glass with pots, pans, furniture, toys, or other
objects.
3. Do not close the oven door until the oven racks are in
place.
Scratching, hitting, jarring or stressing the glass may weaken
its structure causing an increased risk of breakage at a later
date.
Electrical Connection
Appliances which require electrical
power are equipped with a three-
prong grounding plug which must be
plugged directly into a properly grounded
three-hole 120 volt electrical outlet.
Always disconnect power to appliance before servicing.
The three-prong grounding plug offers protection against
shock hazards. DO NOT CUT OR REMOVE THE THIRD
GROUNDING PRONG FROM THE POWER CORD PLUG.
If an ungrounded, two-hole or other type electrical outlet is
encountered, it is the personal responsibility of the
appliance owner to have the outlet replaced with a
properly grounded three-hole electrical outlet.
Note: The oven door on a new range may feel “spongy”
when it is closed. This is normal and will decrease with use.
