appliance
before operating
it.
Keep area around appliance clear and free from com-
bustible materials, gasoline, and other flammable vapors
and materials.
If appliance
is installed near a window,
proper precau-
tions should be taken to prevent curtains from blowing
over burners.
NEVER leave any items on the cooktop. The hot air from
the vent may ignite flammabb
items and may increase
pressure in dosed containers
which may cause them to
burst.
NEVER store items of interest to children in cabinets
above an appliance
Or`on backguard
0f a range.
items could be seriously injured.
NEVER leave children
alone or unsupervised
near the
appliance when it is in use or is still hot.
NEVER allow children to sit or stand on any part of the
appliance
as they could be injured or burned.
Children must be taught that the appliance
and utensils
in it can be hot. Let hot utensils cool in a safe place, out
of reach of small children. Children should be taught
that an appliance is not a toy. Children should not be
allowed to play with controls or other parts of the unit.

About
Your Appliance
Many plastics are vulnerabb
to heat. Keep plastics away
from parts of the appliance that may become warm or
hot. Do not leave plastic items on the cooktop as they
may melt or soften if left too close to the vent or a
lighted surface burner.
To eliminate the hazard of reaching over hot surface
burners, cabinet storage should not be provided directly
above a unit. If storage is provided, it should be limited
to items which are used infrequently
and which are
safely stored in an area subjected to heat from an
appliance. Temperatures
may be unsafe for some items,
such as volatile liquids, cleaners or aerosol sprays.
In Case of Fire
Turn off appliance
and ventilating
hood to avoid spread-
ing the flame. Extinguish flame then turn on hood to
remove smoke and odor.
Cooktop:
Smother fire or flame in a pan with a lid or
cookie sheet.
NEVER pick up or move a flaming pan.
Oven: Smother fire or flame by closing the oven door.
NEVER use appliance door as a step stool or seat as this
may result in possible tipping of the appliance and serious
mjudes.
NEVER use this appliance as a space heater to heat or
warm a room. Doing so may result in carbon monox-
ide poisoning
and overheating
of the oven.
NEVER cover any slots, hobs or passages in the oven
bottom or cover the entire rack with _aterials such as
aluminum foil. Doing so blocks air _:lowthrough
the
oven and may cause carbon monoxide poisoning.
Aluminum
foil may also trap heat causing a fire
hazard.
NEVER obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation
air by blocking the oven vent or air intakes. Doing so
restricts air to the burners and may result in carbon
monoxide poisoning.
