Be sure all rangetop controls are turned off and the
rangetop is cool before using any type of aerosol cleaner
on or around the rangetop. The chemical that produces the
spraying action could, in the presence of heat, ignite or
cause metal parts to corrode.
DO NOT obstruct the flow of combustion or ventilation air.
Service should only be done by authorized technicians.
Technicians must disconnect the power supply before
servicing this unit.
To avoid a fire hazard, grease accumulation must be
prevented by frequently cleaning the ventilation hood and
filters.
In case of fire or when intentionally “flaming” liquor or other
spirits on the rangetop, follow manufacturer’s instructions.
Use caution when cooking foods with high alcohol content
(e.g. rum, brandy, bourbon). Alcohol evaporates at high
temperatures. There is a risk of burning as the alcohol
vapors may catch fire. Use only small quantities of alcohol
in foods.
IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE:
The California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement
Act requires the Governor of California to publish a list of
substances known to the state to cause cancer, birth
defects, or other reproductive harm, and requires
businesses to warn customers of potential exposure to
such substances.
The burning of gas cooking fuel can generate some by-
products which are on the list. Exposure to these
substances can be minimized by:
1. Providing good ventilation when cooking with gas.
2. Operating the unit according to the instructions in this
manual.
DO NOT store or use corrosive chemicals, vapors,
flammables, or nonfood products in or near this appliance.

WARNING:
After a spill or boil over, turn off the burner and using
caution due to possible hot surfaces, clean around the
burner and burner ports. After cleaning, check for proper
operation.
WARNING:
DO NOT block or obstruct the flow of air
through the ventilation openings. The vent
is located at the back of the appliance. The
vent needs to be unobstructed and open to
provide necessary airflow that is important
for proper performance.
DO NOT touch vent area while the
appliance is on and for several minutes
after the appliance is off. Some parts of the
vent and surrounding areas become hot
enough to cause burns. Allow appliance
sufficient time to cool before touching or
cleaning vent areas.
DO NOT position plastic or other heat-
sensitive items on or near the vent. These
items could melt or ignite.

the range. This type of ventilation system may cause
ignition and combustion problems with the appliance
resulting in personal injury, property damage, or
unintended operation. Ventilating systems that direct the
air upwards do not have any restriction.
