though the electronic igniters activate. See “Cleaning
Recommendations” on page 33.
WARNING:
After a spill or boil over, turn off the burner and
clean around the burner and burner ports. After
cleaning, check for proper operation.
Clean the range with caution. Avoid steam burns; do not
use a wet sponge or cloth to clean the range while it is hot.
Some cleaners produce noxious fumes if applied to a hot
surface. Follow directions provided by the cleaner
manufacturer.
Be sure all cooktop controls are turned off and the cooktop
is cool before using any type of aerosol cleaner on or
around the cooktop. The chemical that produces the
spraying action could, in the presence of heat, ignite or
cause metal parts to corrode.
When using the oven: DO NOT TOUCH THE BROILER
ELEMENT, THE INTERIOR SURFACES OF THE OVEN
OR THE EXTERIOR AREA IMMEDIATELY
SURROUNDING THE DOOR. Interior oven surfaces
become hot enough to cause burns. The heat deflector,
which deflects heat away from the cooktop and the trim on
the top and sides of the oven door, will also be hot when
the oven is in use.
Place oven racks in desired position while oven is
cool. If a rack must be moved while the oven is hot, do not
let the potholders contact the broiler element.
Use care when opening the oven door; let hot air or
steam escape before removing or replacing foods.
Do not clean, rub, damage, move or remove the door
gasket. It is essential for a good seal during baking. If the
gasket becomes worn or excessively soiled with food
particles, replace gasket to assure a tight seal.
Protect the self-cleaning feature. Clean only those parts
indicated in this booklet. Do not use commercial oven
cleaners or oven liner protective coatings of any kind in or
around the self-cleaning oven.
DO NOT obstruct the flow of combustion or ventilation air.
For safety reasons and to avoid equipment damage, never
sit, stand, or lean on the oven door.
Service should only be done by authorized
technicians. Technicians must disconnect the power
supply before servicing this unit.
Listen to be sure the cooling blower runs whenever the
oven controls are set in broil or bake modes. If the fan does
not operate, do not use the oven. Call an authorized
service center for service.
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 range's cooktop, follow hood manufacturer’s
instructions.
Use caution when cooking foods with high alcohol content
(e.g. rum, brandy, bourbon) in the oven. Alcohol evaporates
at high temperatures. There is a risk of burning as the
alcohol vapors may catch fire in the oven. Use only small
quantities of alcohol in foods, and open the oven door
carefully.
WARNING:
To avoid possible burn or fire hazard, a
backguard designed specifically for this range
must be installed whenever the range is used.
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 and the elimination of soil
during self-cleaning can generate some by-products which
are on the list. To minimize exposure to these substances,
always operate this unit according to the instructions
contained in this booklet and provide good ventilation.
Exposure to these substances can be minimized by:
1. Providing good ventilation when cooking with gas.
2. Providing good ventilation during and immediately
after self cleaning the oven.
3. 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. It
is specifically designed for use when heating or cooking
food. The use of corrosive chemicals while heating or
cleaning will damage the appliance and could result in
injury.
