Whirlpool FGP335Y Range User Manual


 
l
Do not use the range for warming or heating
the room. Persons could be burned or
injured, or a fire could start.
l
Do not attempt to light the oven burner during
a power failure. Personal injury could result.
Reset oven controls to the off position in the
event of a power failure.
l
Use the range only for its intended use as
described in this manual.
. DO NOT TOUCH SURFACE BURNERS,
AREAS NEAR SURFACE BURNERS OR
INTERIOR SURFACES OF OVEN. Areas
near surface burners and interior surlaces of
an oven become hot enough to cause burns.
During and after use, do not touch, or let
clothing or other flammable materials contact
surface burners, areas near surface burners
or interior surfaces of oven until they have
had sufficient time to cool. Other surfaces of
the range may become hot enough to cause
burns; such as, the oven vent opening, the
surface near the vent opening, the cooktop,
the oven door and window.
l
Do not wear loose or hanging garments when
using the range. They could ignite if they
touch a hot surface burner and you could be
burned.
l
Use only dry potholders. Moist or damp
potholders on surface burners may result in
burns from steam. Do not let potholder touch
surface burners. Do not use a towel or bulky
cloth for a potholder. It could catch on fire.
l
Keep range vents unobstructed.
l
Do not heat unopened containers. They could
explode. The hot contents could cause burns
and container particles could cause injury.
l
Do not store flammable materials on or near
the range. The fumes can create an explo-
sion and/or fire hazard.
l
Do not use the oven for storage.
l
Never use a match or other flame to look for
a gas leak. Explosion and injury could result.
l
Know where your main gas shutoff valve is
located.
When using the cooktop
. Make sure the utensils you use are large
enough to contain food and avoid boilovers
and spillovers. Heavy splattering or spillovers
left on a range can ignite and burn you. Pan
size is especially important in deep fat frying.
l
Check to be sure glass cooking utensils are
safe for use on the range. Only certain types
of glass, glass-ceramic, ceramic, earthen-
ware or other glazed utensils are suitable for
cooktops without breaking due to the sudden
change in temperature.
l
Never leave surface burners unattended at
high heat settings. A boilover could result
and cause smoking and greasy spillovers
that may ignite.
l
Turn pan handles inward, but not over other
surface burners. This will help reduce the
chance of burns, igniting of flammable
materials, and spills due to bumping of the
pan.
l
Do not use decorative covers or trivets over
the surface burners.
When using the oven
l
Always position the oven rack(s) in desired
location while oven is cool.
l
Use care when opening oven door. Let hot
air or steam escape before removing or
replacing food.
