General
l
Install or locate the range only in accor-
dance with the provided Installation
Instructions.
The range must be installed
by a qualified installer. The range must
be properly connected to the proper gas
supply and checked for leaks. The range
must also be properly connected to
electrical supply and grounded.
l
Gas fuels and their use in appliances can
cause minor exposures to benzene,
formaldehyde,
carbon monoxide, and
soot, primarily from incomplete combus-
tion. Significant exposure to these sub-
stances could cause cancer or reproduc-
tive harm. Properly adjusted burners with
a blue, rather than a yellow, flame will
minimize incomplete combustion.
Venting with a hood or an open window
will further minimize exposure.
l
Do not store things children might want
above the range. Children could be
burned or injured while climbing on it.
. Do not leave children alone or unatt-
ended in area where the range is in use.
They should never be allowed to sit or
stand on any part of the range. They
could be burned or injured.
l
Do not operate the range if it is damaged
or not working properly.
l
Do not use the range for warming or
heating the room. Persons could be
burned or injured, or a fire could start.
l
Do not attempt to light the oven burner
during a power failure. Personal injury
could result. Reset oven controls to the
off position in the event of a power
failure.
l
Use the range only for its intended use
as described in this manual.
l
Do not touch surface burners, areas near
surface burners, or interior surfaces of
oven. Areas near surface burners and
interior surfaces of an oven become hot
enough to cause burns. During and after
use, do not touch, or let clothing or other
flammable materials contact surface
burners, areas near surface burners, or
interior surfaces of oven until they have
had sufficient time to cool. Other sur-
faces of the range, such as the oven vent
opening, the surface near the vent open-
ing, the cooktop, and the oven door and
window, could also become hot enough
to cause burns.
!E& '\
l
Do not wear loose or hanging garments
when using the range. They could ignite
if they touch an open flame and you
could be burned.
l
Use only dry pot holders. Moist or damp
pot holders on hot surfaces could result
in burns from steam. Do not let pot holder
touch an open flame. Do not use a towel
or bulky cloth for a pot holder. It could
catch on fire.
l
Keep range vents unobstructed.
l
Do not heat unopened containers. They
could explode. The hot contents could
.cause burns and container panicles
could cause injury.
l
Do not store flammable materials on or
near the range. The fumes could create
an explosion and/or fire hazard.
l
Do not use the oven for storage.
l
Do not use aluminum foil to line areas
around surface burners, oven bottom, or
any other part of the range. Use alumi-
num foil only as recommended
in this
manual.
l
Never use a match or other flame to look
for a gas leak. Explosion and injury could
result.
l
Know where your main
gas
shutoff valve
is located.
