• DISCONNECT power supply cord from the outlet before
servicing.
• Replace all panels and parts before operating.

SURFACE COOKING UNITS
• Use Proper Pan Size – This appliance is equipped with one or more surface units of different
sizes. Select utensils having flat 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 burner will also
improve efficiency.
• Never Leave Surface Units Unattended at High Heat Settings – Boil overs may cause
smoking and greasy spillovers may ignite.
• Make Sure Reflector Pans or Drip Bowls Are in Place – Absence of these pans or bowls
during cooking may subject wiring or components underneath to damage.
• Protective Liners – Do not use aluminum foil to line surface unit drip bowls or oven bottoms,
except as suggested in the manual. Improper installation of these liners may result in a risk of
electric shock, or fire.
• Glazed Cooking Utensils – Only certain types of glass, glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware,
or other glazed utensils are suitable for range-top service without breaking due to the sudden
change in temperature.
• Utensil Handles Should Be Turned Inward and Not Extend Over Adjacent Surface Units
– To reduce the risk of burns, ignition of flammable materials, and spillage due to unintentional
contact with the utensil, the handle of a utensil should be positioned so that it is turned inward,
and does not extend over adjacent surface units.
• Do Not Soak Removable Heating Elements – Heating elements should never be immersed
in water.
• Be sure you know which control pads operate each surface unit.
Make sure you turned on the correct surface unit.
SELF-CLEAN OVENS
• Do Not Clean Door Gasket – The door gasket is essential for a good seal. Care should be
taken not to rub, damage, or move the gasket.
• Do Not Use Oven Cleaners – No commercial oven cleaner or oven liner protective coating of
any kind should be used in or around any part of the oven.
