Whirlpool SS310PEB Range User Manual


 
General
l
Install or locate the range only in accor-
dance 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
electrical supply and grounded.
l
Gas fuels and their use in appliances can
cause minor exposures to benzene,
formaldehyde, carbon monoxide and
soot, primarily from incomplete combus-
tion. Significant exposure to these
substances could cause cancer or
reproductive harm. Properly adjusted
burners with a blue, rather than a yellow,
flame will minimize incomplete combus-
tion. Venting with a hcod or an open
window will further minimize exposure.
l

above the range. Children could be
burned or injured while climbing on it.

tended in area where the range is in use.
