IMPORTANT–
• If you are "flaming" liquor or other spirits under an exhaust, TURN THE FAN OFF. The draft could cause the flames to spread
out of control.
• Once the unit has been installed as outlined in the Installation Instructions, it is important that the fresh air supply is not
obstructed. The use of a gas cooking appliance results in the production of heat and moisture in the room in which it is installed.
Ensure that the kitchen is well-ventilated. Keep natural venting holes open or install a mechanical ventilation device. Prolonged
or intensive use of the appliance may call for additional (such as opening a window) or more effective ventilation (such as
increasing the level of a mechanical ventilation if present).
Cookware Safety
• Use pans with flat bottoms and handles that are easily grasped and stay cool. Avoid using unstable, warped, easily tipped or
loose-handled pans. Also avoid using pans, especially small pans, with heavy handles as they could be unstable and easily tip.
Pans that are heavy to move when filled with food may also be hazardous.
• Be sure cookware is large enough to properly contain food and avoid boilovers. Pan size is particularly important in deep fat
frying. Be sure pan will accommodate the volume of food that is to be added as well as the bubble action of fat.
• To minimize burns, ignition of flammable materials and spillage due to unintentional contact with the utensil, DO NOT extend
handles over adjacent surface burners. ALWAYS turn pan handles toward the side or back of the appliance, not out into the
room where they are easily hit or reached by small children.
• NEVER let a pan boil dry as this could damage the utensil and the appliance.
• Follow the manufacturer's directions when using oven cooking bags.
• Only certain types of glass, glass/ceramic, ceramic or glazed cookware are suitable for cooktop surface without breaking due to
the sudden change in temperature. Follow manufacturer's instructions when
using glass.
• This appliance has been tested for safe performance using conventional cookware. DO NOT use any devices or accessories that
are not specifically recommended in this guide. DO NOT use eyelid covers for the surface units, stovetop grills, or add-on oven
convection systems. The use of devices or accessories that are not expressly recommended in this manual can create serious
safety hazards, result in performance problems, and reduce the life of the components of the appliance.
• The flame of the burner should be adjusted to just cover the bottom of the pan or pot. Excessive burner setting may cause
scorching of adjacent counter-top surfaces, as well as the outside of the cookware. This is based on safety considerations.
Cleaning Safety
• Turn off all controls and wait for appliance parts to cool before touching or cleaning them. DO NOT touch the burners or
surrounding areas until they have had sufficient time to cool.
• Clean appliance with caution. Use care to avoid steam burns if a wet sponge or cloth is used to wipe spills on a hot surface.
Some cleaners can produce noxious fumes if applied to a hot surface.
Important notice regarding pet birds:
NEVER keep pet birds in the kitchen or in rooms where the fumes from the kitchen could reach. Birds have a very sensitive
respiratory system. Fumes released due to overheated cooking oil, fat, margarine and overheated non-stick cookware may be
equally harmful.
