SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
A WARNING: never
u se
this
appliance as a space heater to heat or warm
the room. Doing so may result in carbon
monoxide poisoning and overheating of
the oven.
• Never wear loose fitting or hanging garments
while using the appliance. Be careful when
reaching for items stored in cabinets over the
range. Flammable material could be ignited if
brought in contact with flame or hot oven
surfaces and may cause severe burns.
• Do not store flammable materials in an oven,
a warming drawer, or near a cooktop.
• Do not store or use combustible materials,
gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids
in the vicinity of this or any other appliance.
• Do not let cooking grease or other flammable
materials accumulate in or near the range.
• Do not use water on grease fires. Never pick
up a flaming pan. Turn the controls off.
Smother a flaming pan on a surface burner
by covering the pan completely with a
well-fitting lid, cookie sheet or flat tray.
Use a multi-purpose dry chemical or
foam-type fire extinguisher.
Flaming grease outside a pan can be put
out by covering it with baking soda or,
if available, by using a multi-purpose dry
chemical or foam-type fire extinguisher.
Flame in the upper oven or lower oven drawer
can be smothered completely by closing the
oven door or drawer and turning the control to
off or by using a multi-purpose dry chemical
or foam-type fire extinguisher.
• Let the burner grates and other surfaces cool
before touching them or leaving them where
children can reach them.
• Never block the vents (air openings) of the
range. They provide the air inlet and outlet that
are necessary for the range to operate
properly with correct combustion. Air openings
are located at the rear of the cooktop, at the
top and bottom of the oven door, and at the
bottom of the range under the warming
drawer, or kick panel.
• Large scratches or impacts to glass doors
can lead to broken or shattered glass.
SURFACE BURNERS
Use proper pan size--avoid pans that are unstable or easily tipped. Select cookware having flat
bottoms large enough to cover burner grates. To avoid spillovers, make sure cookware is large enough
to contain the food properly. This will both save cleaning time and prevent hazardous accumulations of
food, since heavy spattering or spillovers left on range can ignite. Use pans with handles that can be
easily grasped and remain cool.
• Always use the LITE position when igniting
the top burners and make sure the burners
have ignited.
• Never leave the surface burners unattended at
high flame settings. Boilovers cause smoking
and greasy spillovers that may catch on fire.
• Adjust the top burner flame size so it
does not extend beyond the edge of the
cookware. Excessive flame is hazardous.
