IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING YOUR
COOKTOP
• Know which knob controls each surface heating unit. Place
a pan of food on the unit before turning it on, and turn the unit
off before removing the pan.
• Use Proper Pan Size_This appliance is equipped with one or
more surface units of different sizes. Select utensils having fiat
bottoms large enough to cover the surface unit heating element.
The use of undersized utensils will expose a portion of the
heating element to direct contact and may result in ignition of
clothing. Proper relationship of utensil to element will also
improve efficiency.
• Utensil Handles Should Be Turned Inward and Not Extend
Over Adjacent Surface Units--To reduce the risk of burns,
ignition offlamma ble materials, and spillage due to unintentional
contact with the utensil, the handle of the utensiT should be
positioned so that it is turned inward, and does not extend over
adjacent surface units.
• Never Leave Surface Units Unattended at High Heat Settings_
Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite, or
a pan that has boiled dry may melt.
• Protective Liners--Do not use aluminum foil to line oven
bottom, or any other part of the range. Only use aluminum foil
as recommended in this manual. Improper installation of these
liners may result in risk of electric shock, or fire.
• Glazed Cooking UtensU_nly certain types of glass, glass/
ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed utensils are
suitable for cooktop service without breaking due to the sudden
change in temperature. Check the manufacturer's
recommendations for cooktop use.
• When flaming foods under a ventilating hood, turn the fan
on.
FOR GLASS COOKTOPS
*Do Not Cook on Broken Cooktop_lf cooktop should break,
cleaning solutions and spillovers may penetrate the broken
cooktop and create a risk of electric shock. Contact a qualified
technician immediately.
• Clean Cooktop with Caution--if a wet sponge or cloth is used
to wipe spills on a hot cooking area, be careful to avoid a steam
burn. Some cleaners can produce harmful fumes if applied to a
hot surface.
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING YOUR
OVEN
• Use Care When Opening Oven Door or Warmer Drawer (if
equipped)--Stand to the side of the range when opening the
door of a hot oven. Let hot air or steam escape before you
remove or replace food in the oven.
• Keep Oven Vent Ducts Unobstructed. The oven vent is located
below the backguard. Touching the surfaces in this area when
the oven is operating may cause severe burns. Also, do not place
plastic or heat-sensitive items on or near the oven vent. These
items could me_t or ignite.
• Placement of Oven Racks. Always place oven racks in desired
location while oven is cool. If rack must be moved while oven is
hot use extreme caution. Use potholders and grasp the rack with
both hands to reposition. Do not let potholders contact the hot
heating elements in the oven. Remove all utensils from the rack
before moving.
• Do not use the broiler pan without its insert. The broiler pan
and its insert allow dripping fat to drain and be kept away from
the high heat of the broiler.
• Do not cover the broiler insert with aluminum foil. Exposed
fat and grease could ignite.
IM PORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FORCLEANINGYOUR
RANGE
• Clean the range regularly to keep all parts free of grease that
could catch fire. Do not allow grease to accumulate.
*Kitchen cleaners and aerosols--Always follow the
manufacturer's recommended directions for use. Be aware
that excess residue from cleaners and aerosols may ignite
causing damage and injury.
• Clean Ventilating Hoods Frequently--Grease should not be
allowed to accumulate on the hood or filter. Follow
manufacturer's instructions for cleaning.
CONTINUOUS CLEANING OVENS
• Do Not Use Oven Cleaners on the oven liner or any of the
continuous cleaning surfaces. Continuous cleaning surfaces
can be identified by their rough surface finish.
