SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should be followed, including the following:
■
Use this appliance only for its intended
purpose as described in this Owner's
Manual.
■
Be sure your appliance is properly
installed and grounded by a qualified
installer in accordance with the provided
installation instructions.
■
Have the installer show you the location of
the circuit breaker or fuse. Mark it for easy
reference.
■
Do not attempt to repair or replace any
part of your range unless it is specifically
recommended in this manual. All other
servicing should be referred to a qualified
technician.
■
Do not cover or block any openings
on the appliance.
To reduce the risk of tipping the range, the range must be
secured by a properly installed anti-tip bracket. See installation
instructions shipped with the bracket for complete details
before attempting to install.
To check if the bracket is installed and engaged properly,
remove the storage drawer or kick panel and look underneath
the range to see that the leveling leg is engaged in the bracket.
If the range is pulled from the wall for any reason, always
repeat this procedure to verify the range is properly secured
by the anti-tip bracket.
If you did not receive an anti-tip bracket with your
purchase, call 1.800.626.8774 to receive one at no
cost (in Canada, call 1.800.561.3344). For installation
instructions of the bracket, visit GEAppliances.com
(in Canada, GEAppliances.ca).
■
Before performing any service, disconnect
the range power supply at the household
distribution panel by removing the fuse or
switching off the circuit breaker.
■
Do not leave children alone—children
should not be left alone or unattended in
an area where an appliance is in use. They
should never be allowed to sit or stand on
any part of the appliance.
■
Do not allow anyone to climb, stand
or hang on the door, storage drawer or
cooktop. They could damage the range
and even tip it over, causing severe
personal injury.
