Ensure pets are not in the kitchen when
the gas range is on. Parts close to the
burners, side board, handle and door will
be hot and can cause some burns.
Before turning the oven on, open the
oven door to avoid gas accumulation
inside the oven cavity. Be sure that the
oven has lighted before closing the oven
door.
Avoid installing the gas range close to
flammable material as curtains, kitchen
clothes, etc.
Oven gas exit should not be blocked.
Oven walls should not be cover with
aluminum paper, neither the floor of the
oven.
Be sure that the burner knobs are in off
position when the gas range is not in
use.
In case of power failure, be use that the
burner knobs are off before using a
match to light the burners.
Never use flames or sparks to locate gas
leaks since this procedure could cause
an explosion. Use a sponge with soap or
liquid detergent foam.

Unplug the gas range and cut the tap
gas if you will be out for a long time.
