General
0 Install or locate the range only in accordance with
the provided Installation Instructions. The range
must be installed by a qualified installer. The
range must be properly connected to the proper
gas supply and checked for leaks. The range
must also be properly connected to the electrical
supply and grounded.
0 Gas fuels and their use in appliances can cause
minor exposures to benzene, formaldehyde,
carbon monoxide, and soot, primarily from
incomplete combustion. Significant exposure to
these substances could cause cancer or repro-
ductive harm. Properly adjusted burners with a
blue, rather than a yellow, flame will minimize
incomplete combustion. Venting with a hood or
an open window will further minimize exposure.
0 Do not store things children might want above the
range. Children could be burned or injured while
climbing on it.
0 Do not leave children alone or unattended in area
where the range is in use. They should never be
allowed to sit or stand on any part of the range.
They could be burned or injured.
0 Do not operate the range if it is damaged or not
working properly.
0 Do not use the range for warming or heating the
room. Persons could be burned or injured, or a
fire could start.
0 Do not attempt to light the oven burner during a
power failure. Personal injury could result. Reset
the oven controls to the off position if there is a
power failure.
0 Use the range only for its intended use as de-
scribed in this manual.
0 Do not touch surface burners, areas near surface
burners, or interior surfaces of oven. Areas near
surface burners and interior surfaces 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, such as the oven
vent opening, the surface near the vent opening,
the cooktop, and the oven door, could also
become hot enough to cause burns.

When usinct the cooktop
0 Make sure the cookware you use is large enough
to contain food and avoid boilovers and spill-
overs. Heavy splattering or spillovers left on a
range could ignite and burn you. Pan size is
especially important in deep fat frying.
0 Check to be sure glass cookware is safe for use
on the range. Only certain types of glass, glass-
ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed
cookware are suitable for cooktops without
breaking due to the sudden change in
temperature.
0 Never leave surface burners unattended at high
heat settings. A boilover could result and cause
smoking and greasy spillovers that could ignite.
