IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Oven
• Do not use the oven for a storage area.
Items stored in the oven can ignite.
• Place the oven shelves in the desired position
while the oven is cool.
• Stand away from the range when opening the
door of a hot oven. The hot air and steam that
escapes can cause burns to hands, face and eyes.
• Keep the oven free from grease buildup.
• Pulling out the shelf to the shelf-stop is a
convenience in lifting heavy foods. It is also a
precaution against burns from touching hot
surfaces of the door or oven walls.
• Do not heat unopened food containers.
Pressure could build up and the container could
burst, causing an injury.
• Do not use aluminum foil anywhere in the oven
except as described in this book. Misuse could
result in a fire hazard or damage to the range.
• When using cooking or roasting bags in the
oven, follow the manufacturer's directions.
Your range, like many other household items,
is heavy and can settle into soft floor coverings
such as cushioned vinyl or carpeting.
When moving the range on this type of flooring, use
care, and it is recommended that these simple
instructions be followed.
Leveling legs are located on each corner of the base
of the range. Your range must be level in order to
produce proper cooking and baking results. After it is
in its final location, place a level horizontally on any
oven shelf and check the levelness front to back and
side to side. Level the range by adjusting the leveling
legs or by placing shims under the corners as needed.

FLOORING UNDER THE RANGE
LEVELING THE RANGE
(continued)
• Use only glass cookware that is recommended
for use in gas ovens.
• After broiling, always take the broiler pan out of
the range and clean it. Leftover grease in the
broiler pan can catch fire the next time you use
the pan.
• When broiling, if meat is too close to the flame,
the fat may ignite. Trim excess fat to prevent
excessive flare-ups.
• Make sure the broiler pan is in place correctly
to reduce the possibility of grease fires.
• If you should have a grease fire in the broiler
pan, turn off oven control, and keep broiler
drawer and oven door closed to contain fire until
it burns out.
• Never leave jars of fat drippings on or near
your range.
SAVE THESE
INSTRUCTIONS
The range should be installed on a 1/4-inch thick
sheet of plywood (or similar material) as follows:
When the floor covering ends at the front of the
range, the area that the range will rest on should be
built up with plywood to the same level or higher than
the floor covering. This will allow the range to be
moved for cleaning or servicing.
One of the rear leveling legs will engage the Anti-Tip
device (allow for some side to side adjustment).
Allow a minimum clearance of 1/8 inch between the
range and the leveling leg that is to be installed into
the Anti-Tip device.
